104 Zhang Liao VS Xu Huang
During the introduction of Xu Huang, Yuan Shao deliberately looked at Wu Fan with a complacent expression: I saw that if I saw it, there will never be a good general under the famous Yuan family of the four generations.
Wu Fan gave this a smile, a smile that made people unable to see their inner activities.
In fact, Wu Fan was very unhappy about Xu Huang's resignation to Yuan Shao. This dissatisfaction had nothing to do with Yuan Shao's complacentness. Wu Fan had always disdained this kind of petty citizen mentality.
Xu Huang is undoubtedly a famous general of a generation. He is one of the five good generals of Cao Wei in history, and his ability is second only to Zhang Liao. Such a famous general of the world, who is now devoted to Yuan Shao's tent, will inevitably meet Cao's army in the future. This sense of historical disobedience makes Wu Fan's heart far more entangled than novelty.
Xu Huang has a loyal and righteous temperament. Although his nature is close to Cao Cao, even if Yuan Shao is destroyed, Wu Fan cannot guarantee that he will surrender to Cao Cao. Thinking of this, Wu Fan naturally feels unhappy.
However, since Yuan Shao specifically introduced Xu Huang, don’t be passive; take the initiative and report to your family to get to know Xu Huang.
So, just after Yuan Shao introduced Xu Huang, Wu Fan immediately stood up and bowed to Xu Huang and said:
"It turns out that it is Lord Gongming. I am here under Wu Fan. I hope Lord Gongming will forgive me for his rudeness."
Wu Fan is also a person with some identities now, including the military advisor, the prefect of Xuchang, and the title of "General Tiance". Under the influence of more than 500 reputations, all women, children, and old women in the Central Plains knew about them. Even in Hebei, due to its connection with the Central Plains, locals have heard of Wu Fan.
When Xu Huang heard Wu Fan report to his house, he was shocked. After looking at Wu Fan up and down, he quickly withdrew his gaze to avoid losing his composure and bowed to Wu Fan and said:
"It turns out that you are the famous General Wu. Xu has heard a lot about General Wu's deeds when he was in Hanoi. It is really a blessing to see him today!"
Then, the two of them were polite and sat down one after another.
This time it was Yuan Shao's turn to be unhappy. The reason why Yuan Shao introduced Xu Huang to everyone was to show Wu Fan that he had no shortage of good generals under his tent. However, judging from the words between the two of them just now, it seemed that they cherish each other and felt that they met too late. This seriously violated Yuan Shao's original intention, how can he be happy? Although Yuan Shao also knew that Wu Fan had done many big events recently and his value also increased with these events, Yuan Shao felt uncomfortable when he thought of Wu Fan abandoning him.
The higher the reputation of Wu Fan, the more major events that Niu B does, the worse Yuan Shao will feel. In other words, if Wu Fan abandons him and leaves, he will be unknown and have no achievements since then, then Yuan Shao will be in a good mood.
This is a typical mentality of a petty citizen. It is incompatible with the generousness that those who are in the upper hand should have. It is no wonder that Yuan Shao could not accomplish great things.
At this point, Yuan Shao drank a few glasses of wine and suddenly looked up and said:
"General Wu, for a long time, Yuan only heard that you have great martial arts and great abilities, but rarely saw it with your own eyes. Today, everyone is rarely gathered together. Why don't General Wu show it to everyone?"
Then he said to Xu Huang:
"Gongming, just accompany General Wu for a walk."
Don’t you two appreciate each other? Now I will let you compete. It’s best if one of them is injured, so that I can feel more at ease.
Yuan Shao thought to himself.
In the current world, it is very popular to make friends through martial arts, drinks through literature. Military people compete with each other, just like the Northeastern people are fighting for wine. It doesn’t matter who can drink and who can’t drink. What’s important is that they drive the atmosphere and drink it in the process. (Zhongjia is a Northeastern person. I don’t know if this custom is present across the country, so I have to use Northeastern people as an example)
Yan Liang and Wen Chou didn't know Yuan Shao's intentions, so they just thought it was really to cheer up, so they all strongly agreed.
Wu Fan naturally understood Yuan Shao's psychology. Not to mention that he didn't want to compete with Xu Huang at all, he said that as a general of the military advisor and prefect of Xuchang, how could he be at the mercy of his power monarch?
Therefore, after Yuan Shao finished speaking, Wu Fan immediately smiled and said:
"Apologize, Wu has been feeling a little uncomfortable in recent days and it is difficult for everyone to enjoy the competition."
While speaking, Wu Fan accidentally glanced at Zhang Liao and saw that Zhang Liao seemed to be quite interested in Xu Huang. He changed his mind and said to Zhang Liao:
"I wonder if Wen Yuan is interested in this?"
When Zhang Liao heard Wu Fan’s question, he looked at Xu Huang again and said:
"Zhang is not talented, and he is willing to compete with General Xu for one or two to help him liven up."
After Zhang Liao took off the Huanglong hook and sickle, his force was 93, and after Xu Huang took off the big axe, his force was 92. The two were equal in force, and in history they were all five sons of Cao Wei. It would be very interesting if these two people competed.
Wu Fanxi said:
"Since that's the case, please ask General Zhang to compete with General Xu. The sword has no eyes, and I suggest that you two will judge the winner and lose by punches and kicks. I wonder what you two want?"
Zhang Liao and Xu Huang both appreciate each other, so they naturally did not want to hurt each other. They both agreed with Wu Fan's proposal.
For Yuan Shao, although this competition once again went against his original intention, Yuan Shao saw that everyone except him was in great interest, so he couldn't say anything else. Moreover, he was a little inspired by this atmosphere, and he wanted to see how exciting the next competition between the two would be.
Behind the restaurant is the courtyard where the shopkeeper's family lives. It is surrounded by houses on all sides, and in the middle is a spacious courtyard, which is the perfect venue for the competition. After talking to the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper was naturally happy that someone would compete here to attract the drinkers, so he nodded quickly. He also promised that after the competition, he would give Wu Fan an additional jar of good wine to suppress the heroes.
The shopkeeper only said that Zhang Liao and Xu Huang, who were not wearing armor, were both heroes on the street, including the drinkers in the restaurant. Therefore, they all stood up one after another in the dining table in a lively manner, came to the window on the back wall of the restaurant, and looked at the situation in the yard. Some drinkers did not take this competition seriously at all. What's the good thing about fighting between two strong men? So they still sat at the table and ate wine and beat bragging.
However, after Zhang Liao and Xu Huang tightly packed their clothes, they stood face to face at the center of the backyard. Women had already packed up the clothes, vegetables and other items dried in the yard. The two of them were about three meters apart, and fisted each other, said "Please!", and then they attacked each other like lightning!
Let’s talk about Xu Huang first. While walking towards Zhang Liao, his body rotated 720 degrees continuously. When the two were only half a meter away, the horizontal whip legs suddenly attacked Zhang Liao with the power of high-speed rotation!
At that moment, Zhang Liao immediately stopped rushing forward rapidly, leaned back 360 degrees, and his legs attacked Xu Huang with the power of tilting!
Seeing this, Xu Huang said in his heart a "very quick reaction". He immediately bounced his body with one foot on his feet and rolled several times in the air. During this period, the two of them had many conflicts on their legs, making a series of powerful "papapapapapa" sounds.
In a blink of an eye, the two of them landed at the same time without any stagnation. Xu Huang had already cheated on the spot and hit Zhang Liao's shoulder with the force of slashing. However, Zhang Liao turned around at the same time, with Xu Huang's falling cheating on his back, and he used a single arm to attack Xu Huang's neck with the force of slashing...
(This competition should be finished in two sessions. For details, please see the next breakdown^^)
