Chapter 159 Red Hare and the Jade Lion Under the Night! Lu Bu is unconscious.
"Don't worry, there's plenty of food."
"Miss Lü, how about this?"
You should eat whatever your sister usually eats.
Han Dai stroked Lü Lingqi's hair, coaxing—or rather, gently persuading her.
"Really, sis?"
"Can I eat as well as you?"
"Yes, you eat whatever your sister eats."
Han Dai suddenly blushed.
What she eats on a daily basis seems to be more than just food; it also includes...
"Alright, Miss Lü, you must be tired. Go and rest for a while."
Su Yu said to Lü Lingqi.
Then, he dispatched his personal guards to take Lü Lingqi away first.
After Lü Lingqi left, Han Dai said to Su Yu:
“My lord, this girl doesn’t seem to have any bad intentions, but she is, after all, Lü Bu’s daughter.”
"I will keep a close watch on her from now on, until she becomes one of my own."
Seeing Han Dai's serious expression, Su Yu couldn't help but kiss her.
then……
Although it was broad daylight, Su Yu and Han Dai had both worked hard all day, so it was only natural for them to go back to their room to rest.
……
Near the stables
Xiahou Dun rubbed his hands together with delight.
As a military general, who wouldn't love a BMW?
For a military general, a good warhorse is like a good brother fighting side by side.
Standing beside Xiahou Dun at this moment was none other than Red Hare, known as the number one divine steed in the world!
As for the arrow wounds on Red Hare, they have healed considerably.
The physical structure of humans and horses is different.
When Red Hare was struck by a crossbow bolt during the day, it did indeed feel excruciating pain.
However, thanks to the professional treatment by Cao's horse grooms, and the Red Hare's strong physique and thick coat, the wounds caused by the crossbow bolts had already scabbed over.
It will only take a few days to fully recover.
"Come here, my good Red Hare, here's some hay for you."
Xiahou Dun, like a wicked old man, held a handful of fodder to Red Hare's mouth.
Red Hare couldn't help but shiver, but because it was already hungry, it still ate all the fodder that the bad uncle Xiahou Dun had provided.
"Yes, I'll write a letter to Mengde about it later."
"Good boy Red Hare, from now on you'll follow me!"
Xiahou Dun stroked Red Hare's mane, which startled Red Hare so much that it trembled violently.
Xiahou Dun, however, had no idea what was going on and thought that Red Hare liked him very much, so he gave Red Hare an extra fodder.
"Yuan Rang, what are you doing... feeding Red Hare?"
Not far away, Zhao Yun led the Night-Shining Jade Lion over.
"Zilong, what happened to your Jade Lion? Is it injured?"
Xiahou Dun saw the Jade Lion Bathed in Night and a hint of envy appeared in his eyes.
But then he looked at Red Hare and instantly felt that the Jade Lion Under the Night was just so-so.
Zhao Yun read the disdain in Xiahou Dun's eyes.
But the gentle and refined man simply shook his head and explained his purpose:
"I don't know what's wrong, but the Jade Lion at Night has stopped eating the grass I feed it since it went back."
"I came to the stable to see if there are any other types of hay, perhaps the kind I usually feed it. Night-Shining Jade Lion is tired of it."
After saying that, Zhao Yun affectionately patted the head of the Night-Shining Jade Lion.
The Jade Lion, however, did not give Zhao Yun any face. Instead, it broke free of its reins and came to Red Hare's side.
"Huh? What's going on?"
Not only Zhao Yun, but Xiahou Dun was also somewhat bewildered.
Could it be that Zhao Yun and Lü Bu fought during the day, and the Jade Lion and Red Hare are holding a grudge, and now they want to have a duel between the divine steeds?
Just as Zhao Yun and the Jade Lion held their breath, anticipating a "battle of divine steeds,"
The Jade Lion, bathed in night light, took a leap and struck a pose that was not suitable for children to watch.
Hmm! The clever Jade Lion of Night even deliberately avoided Red Hare's scabbed wound.
That's very gentlemanly.
As expected of the warhorse that Zhao Yun led.
Zhao Yun: “???”
Xiahou Dun: “???”
……
In the Su Mansion
Xiahou Dun, looking utterly dejected, went to Su Yu to complain.
"Ziyi, you be the judge. What did Zilong mean by illuminating the jade lion that night?"
"Even though Red Hare and I had just developed a bond, that Jade Lion of the Night just forced itself on me!"
Su Yu listened with a bewildered expression as Xiahou Dun accused the Night-Shining Jade Lion of his actions.
emmm.
To be honest, Su Yu was also quite bewildered when he learned that Red Hare was a mare.
But warhorses are quite different from animals like tigers, lions, gorillas, and deer.
In creatures like tigers and lions, the males are naturally stronger than the females.
Moreover, they look quite different; you can tell the male from the female at a glance.
But horses, apart from horse breeders and horse owners.
It's very difficult to tell a male horse from a female horse.
In terms of performance, there is no significant difference.
Are mares always weaker than stallions?
Really not!
It is common for mares to have stronger stamina than stallions.
Speaking of this, Su Yu was somewhat looking forward to the possibility that the foal born from the union of Red Hare and Jade Lion Nightfall might be a divine steed.
Divine steeds are very rare to find.
Su Yu's Clawed Yellow Lightning could barely be considered a divine steed.
Cao's Shadowless Sword has similar performance to the Clawed Yellow Flying Lightning Sword.
These two horses are already a rare find.
However, compared to top-quality horses like the Jade Lion and Red Hare, it is clearly inferior.
If the Jade Lion and Red Hare were to have offspring, Su Yu thought to himself that he should at least get one of them.
Forget it, let's get two.
One horse was given to Han Dai, and the other to Lü Lingqi.
Of course, that's a story.
Perhaps neither the Jade Lion nor the Red Hare themselves expected this.
One day, they actually met each other in the vast sea of horses.
As for Xiahou Dun's minor complaints, Su Yu easily appeased him with a few words, and even wished that Red Hare would quickly have a postpartum period and give birth to a foal.
……
Thirty li outside Puyang City
The camp, which was originally only five miles from Puyang City, has been abandoned by Zhang Liao and Chen Gong.
There was no other way; it was too close to Puyang City.
If Cao Cao's army were to press their advantage and launch a surprise attack, Lü Bu's current army would likely be unable to withstand it.
Therefore, after retreating for nearly thirty miles, Chen Gong and Zhang Liao dared to set up camp again.
"Strategist, has the lord not woken up yet?"
Zhang Liao paced back and forth outside the tent, his face full of anxiety.
"Wen Yuan, there's no use in being anxious now."
"Our lord was seriously injured today. If it weren't for his strong physique, an ordinary person would probably be dead by now."
Chen Gong was also filled with lingering fear.
The Red Hare, a divine steed, propelled Lü Bu forward with tremendous force, demonstrating its immense power.
Although in this era, there was no physics, nor concepts such as inertia.
But this doesn't mean people lack common sense.
Lu Bu's injuries will require him to rest for at least a period of time before he can regain his original fighting strength.
In addition, the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry and the Trapped Camp were completely wiped out.
The morale of Lü Bu's army had plummeted to rock bottom.
"Wen Yuan, please pull yourself together."
"Our army is no longer suited to stay in Yanzhou."
"The only option now is to go to Runan and seek refuge with Yuan Shu."
"Until our lord recovers his fighting strength, the army will be under your command."
Chen Gong handed the tiger tally to Zhang Liao.
Zhang Liao's eyes held a hint of helplessness and a hint of evasion.
