Transmigrating to the Three Kingdoms as Lu Bu: I Have a Pseudo-Apocalypse System

Thousands of Liangzhou soldiers near the center of the battlefield knelt down and surrendered one after another, like dominoes falling.

Weapons clattered and fell to the ground.

Of course, there are also die-hards.

A Liangzhou military officer, his eyes red, roared, "No surrender! Get up, keep killing! Report to General Li..."

Before he could even utter the word "hatred," Lü Bu had already spurred his horse and charged towards him.

He swung his halberd.

The captain was cleaved in two, sword and all.

Blood was splattered everywhere, and internal organs spilled all over the ground.

The Liangzhou soldiers around them were terrified and knelt down even faster.

"Who else wants to die?" Lu Bu coldly surveyed the crowd.

No one dared to answer.

The Liangzhou army, which was a little further away, was not in immediate danger of being killed by Lü Bu, but they also saw the commander's flag fall and the chaos in the central army.

"The central army is in chaos!"

"General Li and General Guo may have run into trouble!"

"Run! If you don't run, you'll die!"

Someone shouted "Run!" and countless people turned and fled.

The army was defeated like a mountain.

Tens of thousands of Liangzhou soldiers, except for those who knelt and surrendered, began to flee in disarray across the mountains and plains.

The supervisory team tried to stop them, but they were quickly scattered by the fleeing soldiers. Some even turned around and slashed at the supervisory team in order to make their way to escape.

The entire north bank of the Ba River completely collapsed.

On the hillside, Jia Xu endured the excruciating pain in his left arm and, with the help of his personal guards, tore off a piece of his clothing with his right hand to hastily bandage the wound.

He glimpsed the battlefield through the gaps in the supply wagons, and his heart turned cold.

It’s over.

With the two commanders, Li Jue and Guo Si, dead, the 100,000-strong army collapsed instantly.

The Liangzhou army is finished.

The Guanzhong Plain is about to undergo a major transformation.

"Strategist," a pale-faced leader of Li Jue's personal guards crawled over, "Generals Li and Guo are both dead. What should we do?"

Jia Xu took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

"Run, back to Liangzhou."

"And General Li's corpse..."

"We can't worry about that now!" Jia Xu gritted his teeth. "Lu Bu will be here soon, and if we don't leave, we'll all die!"

The head of the guards glanced at Li Jue and Guo Si, who lay cold on the ground, then at the scene of people kneeling in surrender and others scattering to escape on the battlefield. He gritted his teeth and said, "Yes!"

Several guards escorted Jia Xu as he frantically fled for his life.

Jia Xu took one last look back at the battlefield.

Lü Bu has already led his heavy cavalry to begin gathering surrendered soldiers and eliminating those who resist.

The halberd gleamed coldly in the sunlight, like the scythe of death.

"Lu Bu, this man will surely be a great calamity for the world in the future." Jia Xu sighed inwardly, then turned and disappeared into the chaotic crowd of fleeing soldiers.

On the south bank of the Ba River, Wei Xu, Song Xian, Hou Cheng, and others also witnessed the dramatic changes on the north bank.

"The commander's flag has fallen, and the Liangzhou army has collapsed!" Hou Cheng shouted excitedly.

Wei Xu cleaved a Liangzhou soldier who was still resisting with a single stroke. Looking around, he saw the Liangzhou army on the north bank collapsing like the receding tide.

"General, you've succeeded!" Song Xian's voice trembled with excitement.

They had previously fought a fierce battle on the south bank, facing an enemy force several times their size. Although they were well-equipped and in high spirits, the pressure was still immense.

Many soldiers were wounded, and more than half of their arrows had been used up.

If the fighting continues, I'm afraid we really won't be able to hold on.

Unexpectedly, Lü Bu actually led five hundred personal guards to break through tens of thousands of troops, shot and killed Li Jue and Guo Si, and turned the tide of the battle in one fell swoop!

"Counterattack! Counterattack across the entire front!" Wei Xu roared, "Drive the enemy back into the river!"

"Kill!" The Bingzhou army's morale soared, and they launched a counterattack.

The Liangzhou army on the south bank, whose morale was already in disarray due to the defeat on the north bank, collapsed immediately, with many jumping into the river to escape or kneeling down to surrender.

The Ba River was filled with corpses and struggling, defeated soldiers.

An hour later, the fighting had basically subsided.

On the north bank of the Ba River, the Liangzhou army knelt in surrender, a dark mass, roughly estimated to be no less than 30,000.

Tens of thousands of defeated soldiers fled in all directions, covering the mountains and fields.

The bodies of Li Jue and Guo Si were found, with arrows stuck in their heads and bodies.

The fact that no reward was received for shooting Jia Xu proves that Jia Xu is not dead, but has simply disappeared and fled.

Lu Bu, mounted on Red Hare, surveyed the battlefield of the great victory at Ba River.

"General!" Zhang Liao led his light cavalry battalion from the outer perimeter, his body covered in blood but his spirits high. "Li Li's right flank army has completely collapsed. I pursued them for twenty li, beheading three thousand and capturing four thousand!"

"Good!" Lü Bu nodded. "Any news about Fan Chou's left flank army?"

"Colonel Hao Meng sent a messenger to report that Fan Chou's 20,000-strong army besieged Lantian County with a fierce offensive, but Lantian's defenses were strong and our army held on. After learning of the defeat of the central army, Fan Chou has begun to withdraw his troops and flee north."

Lu Bu sneered: "Trying to run? Not so easy. Wen Yuan, you immediately lead the light cavalry to pursue Fan Chou. Take down as many as you can, but don't venture too far into enemy territory alone."

"Yes, sir!" Zhang Liao accepted the order and turned to leave.

"Wait," Lü Bu called out to him, "capture some prisoners and ask Li Jue and Guo Si where their provisions are stored. With an army of 100,000, they must have a lot of provisions."

"Understood, sir!"

Zhang Liao led his light cavalry battalion away in a whistling sound.

Lü Bu then said to Cheng Lian, "Count the surrendered soldiers. As usual, those who are willing to surrender will be incorporated into the auxiliary troops and rigorously trained by veteran soldiers. Those who are unwilling will be sent to repair the city walls and dig trenches."

"promise!"

"Wei Xu, Song Xian, and Hou Cheng, clean up the battlefield, inventory the spoils, and treat the wounded. Our fallen soldiers shall be given a proper burial, their names and hometowns shall be registered, and their families shall receive three times the normal compensation."

"yes!"

As orders were issued, each department carried them out in an orderly manner.

As the sun set, corpses littered the banks of the Ba River, but the shouts of killing had ceased.

In this battle, Lü Bu, with less than 10,000 troops, decisively defeated Li Jue and Guo Si's army of 100,000, killing Li Jue and Guo Si in battle, capturing tens of thousands, and seizing countless spoils.

Once the news spreads, it will surely shake the world.

That night, at the Bahe Camp, in the central command tent.

Lü Bu summoned his generals for a meeting.

Zhang Liao, who had been pursuing Fan Chou, had not yet returned, but he had already sent back an initial battle report: Fan Chou's army had been mostly routed, with more than 2,000 prisoners captured and hundreds of supply wagons seized.

More importantly, they learned from the prisoners that Li Jue's army had stockpiled its provisions in a valley northeast of Baling County, which was heavily guarded.

"General, the garrison at the grain depot numbers about five thousand, and the commander is Yang Feng," Cheng Lian reported.

Lu Bu pondered for a moment: "Yang Feng? Former general of the White Wave Army?"

"Exactly."

"This man is quite capable." Lu Bu pondered for a moment, "How many men did Wen Yuan lead in pursuit of Fan Chou?"

"Two thousand light cavalry."

"Not enough." Lü Bu shook his head. "Wei Xu, you lead 1,000 elite troops from the Trapped Camp, and Song Xian leads 1,000 infantrymen. Set off tonight to meet up with Wen Yuan and attack the grain depot. You must take it; those grains are very important to us."

"Yes, sir!" Wei Xu and Song Xian accepted the order.

"Remember, the primary objective is to persuade them to surrender," Lü Bu added. "Li Jue is dead, and the Liangzhou army is leaderless. Yang Feng may not fight to the death. If we can persuade him to surrender, we can save many lives."

"This subordinate understands."
