Chapter Nine, the Horse Archer Guan Yu, requests to battle

Although Lu Yan is more than 300 meters away from the scene

If the first event truly unfolds as scheduled, then the subsequent occurrences such as Dong Zhuo's burning of Luoyang and Cao Cao's great defeat at Xingyang are also likely to be true

Given time, when I, Cao Cao, have accumulated enough resources, I will clear the world and restore a bright and clear realm for the Han Dynasty, and it will no longer be just an empty promise or grandiose talk

He Pan Feng still could not last a single round against Hua Xiong

Yuan Shao and Han Fu are neighbors, and he has heard a little about the bravery and martial prowess of General Pan Feng

It is a pity that

"The horse archer Guan Yu, please engage in battle with Hua Xiong!"

The moment Pan Feng appeared, Hua Xiong had already seen through Pan Feng's strength, "Another second-rate general..."

Although I know this is a provocation

Disaster has struck! Disaster has struck! General Pan has engaged in battle with Hua Xiong for less than a round, and has already been slain beneath his horse!

At this thought, Cao Cao's gaze involuntarily shifted towards Guan Yu, and he pondered: "How much longer can you endure?"

However, do I not have fierce generals in my allied forces of vassal lords

Cao Cao raised his hand to stop the three individuals behind him who wished to volunteer for battle

Then ... ...

According to the sage's prophecy, if everything turns out to be true in the end, then although the lords' conference may be deemed a victory, it can also be considered a failure in the end

The imposing general clasped his fists and said to Yuan Shao

Cao Cao's gaze slowly fell upon the three brothers of Liu Bei, and he thought to himself: "If you, Guan Yu, do not step forward, then do not blame me, Cao Cao, for speaking out..."

Seeing that the elder brother does not permit

However, with Cao Cao's ambitious and formidable character, these difficulties could not hinder his progress at all; he merely experienced a slight dip in morale for just two minutes

It is essential to note that

However, I can leverage this advantage of foresight to extract sufficient benefits for myself from known events as much as possible

Cao Cao's gaze regained its firmness, yet the atmosphere on site became somewhat chaotic and restless

Cao Cao was indeed concerned that the morale of the allied forces would suffer a significant blow

Hua Xiong was wiping the blood off his broadsword

Can be in the military

Pan Feng actually has some reputation

Ladies and gentlemen, has a mere minor figure like Hua Xiong truly instilled fear in your hearts? Answer me, who dares to confront Hua Xiong?

Lord Yuan, I, General Pan Feng, request to battle Hua Xiong

Upon seeing Pan Feng request to engage in battle, Yuan Shao could not help but feel a surge of energy, and thus he spoke up to confirm: "General Pan, do you have confidence in this?"

Pan Feng will not give Lu Yan a chance to regret

After consecutively losing two key generals, the feudal lords were hesitant to send out their own commanders. At this moment, both Cao Cao and Liu Bei felt that the timing was about right

This is the first event mentioned by the immortal in the diary, and now both Hua Xiong and Guan Yu have appeared

Although unable to change anything due to being too weak in strength

The death of a general is indeed a minor issue, after all, in warfare, there are bound to be casualties. However, the campaign against Dong Zhuo has only just begun. If the morale is significantly affected and the alliance is disrupted, leading to its dissolution, then Yuan Shao would truly become the greatest joke in the world

Yuan Shao, seated in the main position, surveyed the surrounding lords.

"Even General Lian Pan has been defeated, who would still dare to go up and seek death"

The feudal lords were delighted that someone was going to deal with Hua Xiong

Under the command of Han, there is a fierce general named Pan Feng

At the moment when Pan Feng volunteered to fight against Hua Xiong, Lu Yan had just slipped out of the military camp and wandered around until he arrived outside the city

Yet at this moment, they are all used to highlight the bravery of Hua Xiong

With Lu Yan's enhanced vision, the scene in front of the gate of Suanzao City appears as if it is right before him at a distance of 3 to 5 meters

It is a pity that my subordinates Yan Liang and Wen Chou are not by my side; if either of them were here, how could that Huaxiong be so arrogant?

And every strike aimed at Hua Xiong's vital points, determined to cleave him in two before finally relenting

Although Yuan Benchu was the leader of the alliance

This blatant provocation can sometimes be surprisingly simple and effective

Yuan Shao's words undoubtedly carried a hint of provocation

Pan Feng clasped his fists and replied with unwavering determination: "My great axe has long been eager and restless!"

Good! Upon hearing Pan Feng's confident demeanor, Yuan Shao stepped forward and said loudly, "Bring the wine! I want to toast General Pan for his grand journey!"

Pan Feng urged his warhorse to accelerate, raising his battle axe high with one hand, while loudly proclaiming: "General Pan Feng has come to take your head!"

Moreover, this Pan Feng indeed appears quite formidable, thus the lords secretly breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts

everything seemed to be destined, just as Cao Cao was pondering when Guan Yu would make his appearance

Each strike carries the momentum of creating the heavens and the earth

In the hall of the feudal lords, the messenger has arrived again, this time his face is filled with fear, and even his voice has begun to tremble

Having just moved a large stone to sit down, Lu Yan had not yet warmed his seat when a warrior wielding a giant axe burst out from the city gate, the tense atmosphere causing Lu Yan to involuntarily stand up again

Even the three men behind Cao Cao, Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, and Cao Hong, felt a stir upon hearing these words, but only Cao Ren, who possessed the most composed temperament, remained unperturbed

At that moment, one of the feudal lords stepped forward and cupped his fists towards Yuan Shao, saying

After he took his seat, a tall warrior emerged.

After drinking the farewell wine with Yuan Shao, Pan Feng left the conference hall with a powerful stride, holding his mountain-splitting axe in one hand, exuding a commanding presence.

Upon seeing that the allied forces of the feudal lords had sent another person to his death, a look of impatience immediately appeared on Hua Xiong's face as he said: "Come forth and state your name!"

Leader Yuan

The prophecy of the immortal states that Guan Yu beheaded Hua Xiong, thus those who fought before Guan Yu were merely the souls lost under Hua Xiong's blade

As the message delivered by the messenger arrived, the entire hall fell into a silence once again, a silence that was even somewhat eerie

Only Cao Cao shook his head in secret

The feudal lords fell silent, and Yuan Shao felt a genuine sense of urgency in his heart

Yuan Shao, seeing that everyone was silent, pretended to be troubled and said

Arriving at a small hillside approximately 300 meters away from the city gate, Lu Yan surveyed the surroundings from the slope before deciding to observe the battle against Hua Xiong from this vantage point.

... ...

Cao Cao, observing the current fragmented state of the warlords, was further shrouded in a thick cloud of gloom, "I, Cao Mengde, have the intention to eliminate the traitors, yet I find myself powerless to turn the tide!"

only

As soon as Han Fu's voice fell,

At the Sishui Pass, Guan Yu warms the wine and beheads Hua Xiong

Finally stood up

Moreover, the person whom Dong Zhuo hated the most was Cao Cao, so the warlords must not fail in their initial attempt to oppose Dong Zhuo

The brothers Xiahou and Cao Hong could only retreat helplessly

The feudal lords now seem to have somewhat extinguished their desire to vie for the foremost position, and have begun to conceal their intentions.

"Wow, Pan Feng has made his entrance!" Lu Yan exclaimed, slapping his thigh in excitement, but at that moment, he felt that something was missing, "Oh no... I forgot to bring my sunflower seeds, peanuts, and yellow wine!"

It is merely his reputation

However, Cao Mengde is the one who issued the imperial edict

His movements are bold and vigorous

Cao Cao is increasingly convinced that the prophecy of the "immortal" will soon come to pass

The red-faced man who has always stood behind Liu Bei

At this moment, the crowd was still engaged in heated discussions, and even the morale of the troops was somewhat wavering. One could not help but exclaim: "This Hua Xiong is indeed formidable!"

Since I, Cao Mengde, have already foreseen the development of the situation

He wields a mountain axe weighing around one hundred catties; if he goes into battle, he will surely be able to slay that Hua Xiong
