"Grand Governor!"
Hua Xiong knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
Xue Rengui hurriedly stepped forward to help Hua Xiong up and said curiously:
"Why is General Hua like this?"
Hua Xiong's eyes welled up with a little moisture, he crossed his arms and said:
"Today Mr. Hua expressed his heartfelt words to the governor."
"If the Grand Governor hadn't fired an arrow to save my life today, I would have been beheaded by the coalition forces."
"Now Mr. Hua is famous all over the world, but this should all be yours!"
When Xue Rengui heard this, he put his hands behind his back and smiled:
"What is it? It turns out to be this."
"The Prime Minister has given me the post of Commander-in-Chief of the former army. I am responsible for the safety and security of the army. I cannot bear to see the coalition forces kill my general."
"As for becoming famous, if a man has great ambitions, how can he achieve fame overnight?"
After hearing this, Hua Xiong was greatly shocked.
His self-perception is that of a Xiliang warrior, and after hearing Xue Rengui's words, he couldn't help but sigh that this is the talent of a general!
No wonder he is the governor-general while he is just a pioneer general.
"Grand Governor!"
Hua Xiong kowtowed to the ground and buried his head deep in the soil.
"Hua's life was saved by you. If you are forced to do so in the future, you will be punished without any hesitation!"
Xue Rengui's eyes lit up and he put his hands behind his back and said:
"Now that you and I are working for the Prime Minister, we should be doing the same to the Prime Minister."
Hua Xiong smiled and said, "Yes, I am willing to join hands with the Governor to repay the Prime Minister for his kindness!"
The words are divided into two parts.
"Second brother, how is your injury?"
Liu Bei carefully applied the medicine to Guan Yu, his eyes full of worry.
Guan Yu frowned and coughed:
"...Ahem...this injury is not harmful, brother, don't worry."
Zhang Fei asked carelessly from the side:
"Second brother, is Hua Xiong really that powerful?"
"You're actually no match for him."
Guan Yu shook his head, he had nothing to hide in front of his brothers.
"Hua Xiong is nothing to worry about. I faced him today and I could kill him instinctively."
"Unexpectedly, there is someone in Hua Xiong's army who is good at shooting. He can shoot through my arm from a distance of two miles."
"Guan's right arm was weak, so he was defeated by Na Hua Xiong."
Liu Bei and Zhang Fei suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Guan Yu would be defeated. It turned out that someone in the coalition forces shot a cold arrow.
Let me just say, my second brother is invincible, how could he be in such a miserable state?
"Then in front of all the princes, why didn't you explain, second brother?" Zhang Fei asked.
Guan Yu smiled bitterly:
"Guan made bold words before the battle, and Hua Xiong was willing to raise his head to see me. Now that he has been defeated, why should he make more excuses?"
Liu Bei and Zhang Fei looked at each other and fell silent.
There is no morality at all on the battlefield, and food is the original sin.
If you lose, you lose. There is no reason to look for.
At this time, there was a sudden sound outside the house.
An entourage reported that Cao Cao was visiting.
Liu Bei stood up in a hurry and asked Zhang Fei to follow him out to greet him.
"General Cao, thank you for interceding in front of the alliance leader today."
"Liu Bei sheds tears of gratitude, tears of gratitude."
Liu Bei stepped forward and bowed to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao arched his eyebrows and smiled:
"Brother Xuande, how is your second brother's injury?"
Liu Bei hurriedly said:
"Nothing serious. Thank you, General Cao, for your concern."
Cao Cao said again:
"I ordered someone to buy some beef and wine and come to visit your three brothers."
With that said, Cao Ren brought up the wine and meat.
Liu Bei thanked him and hurriedly asked Cao Cao to take a seat.
During the dinner, Cao Cao and Liu Bei drank several glasses of hot wine.
Seeing that he was already a little tipsy, Cao Cao slowly spoke:
"Brother Xuande has great ambitions and traveled thousands of miles to Luoyang to fight against thieves. Cao deeply admires his loyalty."
Liu Bei hurriedly raised his glass in return:
"Don't dare, don't dare, General Cao issued an edict to promote great righteousness, and all the heroes in the world responded."
"Being able to contribute to the Han Dynasty is worthy of being a descendant of the great ancestor."
Cao Cao seized the opportunity and said quickly:
"That's right, Cao has long been determined to help the Han Dynasty!"
"That's why we raised these righteous soldiers to attack the Sun thief."
Liu Bei nodded and agreed:
"Yes, during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the imperial court ordered all states and counties to recruit local warriors to defend themselves."
"This is due to the inability to do so and the lack of troops. However, this will definitely lead to the separatist trend of local powerful forces."
"At that time, I concluded that when the Yellow Turbans are put down, the heroes will rise."
"At that time, it is still unclear who is ruling the world in this domain!"
Cao Cao raised his eyebrows, and the smile on his face suddenly solidified.
Heroes cherish heroes and heroes recognize heroes.
Judging from this round of dialogue, Cao Cao already knew that Liu Bei was by no means a creature in the pool and was unwilling to be inferior to others.
"I made a mistake."
Cao Cao walked on the way back, with an extremely solemn expression on his face.
"Why did Meng De say that? Didn't you say that you wanted to conquer the three Liu Bei brothers?"
Cao Ren asked strangely from the side.
Cao Cao looked at him and shook his head.
"A heroic husband has great ambitions and a good plan."
"It has the opportunity to contain the universe and the ambition to swallow up the heaven and earth."
"And Liu Bei is a man who doesn't show his emotions or anger. He is just such a person."
Cao Cao took a deep breath and looked up at the sky.
I silently prayed that Liu Bei would not become his enemy in the future.
Otherwise, he would have personally saved his enemy today.
As I was walking, suddenly a sentry rider came hurriedly to report——
"No, General Cao!"
"The thief Xue Rengui personally led five hundred knights to challenge the stronghold. The leader of the alliance invites you to come and discuss matters together!"
Cao Cao hurried to the city gate.
Yuan Shao and others were already guarding the gate. Seeing Cao Cao coming, they hurriedly said:
"Meng De came just in time. The thief general Xue Rengui was so arrogant that he only brought five hundred people to challenge our rebel army."
"Xue Rengui? Is he Sun Yu's former military commander?"
"Then Hua Xiong is already invincible. Now, isn't his immediate boss even more invincible?"
For a time, the allied soldiers in Guan Guan were panic-stricken and extremely afraid of Xue Rengui.
Although he only brought five hundred knights with him, no one dared to go down the pass to meet the enemy.
Wang Kuang, the prefect of Hanoi, saw that the situation was not good. If Xue Rengui continued to yell and curse like this, the morale of their coalition forces would collapse before they could fight.
So he sent his famous Hanoi general Fang Yue out to challenge!
Fang Yue went out to fight with his horse and gun drawn, and met Xue Rengui.
As soon as the two horses crossed each other, Xue Rengui stabbed him under the horse with a halberd.
All the princes held their breath and took a deep breath.
I had not been able to see Hua Xiong’s bravery with my own eyes before, but I saw Xue Rengui’s bravery with my own eyes.
But it’s really inappropriate!
"Who else dares to challenge?"
Yuan Shao shouted loudly.
As soon as he finished speaking, another general came out of the pass.
It turned out to be Wu Anguo, a fierce general under Kong Rong, the prime minister of Beihai, who used an iron hammer with a force of a thousand catties in his arms.
Xue Rengui clapped his horse and waved his halberd to greet him, and the two generals fought together.
After less than five rounds of fighting, Wu Anguo's wrist was cut off with a halberd.
Wu Anguo was in pain, dropped his hammer on the ground and flew away on horseback.
Xue Rengui took advantage of the victory to pursue him, and rushed over with his halberd in hand.
Kong Rong's army was defeated and scattered.
