My younger brother Lü Fengxian

Chapter 289: Top-notch General

Inside Zhang Fei's house.

Lu Yi and the other five sat as host and guest.

"My surname is Zhang, my given name is Fei, and my courtesy name is Yide. I have always respected heroes the most."

"I, Zhang Fei, am well-known for my bravery in Zhuo County. I am invincible in the whole county."

"But it is precisely because of this that I am usually quite boring and can only get drunk all day to ease the frustration in my heart."

"I didn't expect to meet four such heroes today. I am very happy. This cup of wine is for you four heroes!"

Zhang Fei was very heroic and raised his wine cup to toast each other repeatedly.

The other three men including Lu Yi also drank it all in one gulp. Even Gao Shun, who did not like drinking, did the same because he admired Zhang Fei's martial arts.

Because of the appearance of Lu Yi in this life, Gao Shun is much more valued than when he was loyal to Lu Bu in history. He does not have to give Lu Bu advice repeatedly but never get it adopted as in history. Lu Yi acts in an orderly and principled manner, and he hardly needs to bother giving advice or persuasion. Even when Gao Shun needs reminders sometimes, Lu Yi accepts them one by one, which makes him very happy.

This change has slightly changed Gao Shun's character, making him no longer as taciturn as in history, and appearing much more cheerful.

The same was true for Lu Bu standing beside him.

In history, Lu Bu was like a horse that had broken free from its reins. Although he had the ability to travel a thousand miles a day, he repeatedly failed to achieve the goal due to his own vision and personality.

He only had Yanzhou and Xuzhou, but in the end he could only become a prisoner.

Now, because Lu Yi is suppressing him and will intervene when he goes off track, Lu Bu is far more organized and self-controlled than at the same time in history.

The future life circumstances will also be very different.

The relationships between warriors are far more heroic and simple than those between scholars.

Sometimes a glance can mean life or death.

But sometimes, a glass of wine can make people put aside their deep hatred.

After a glass of wine, the few people quickly became familiar with each other and the atmosphere in the hall gradually became heated.

"Brother Zhang said it well!"

Guan Yu was also quite excited and raised his wine cup to toast.

"To be honest, I am from Jie County, Hedong Prefecture. I just couldn't stand the local tyrants bullying others, so I killed this official in anger and became a fugitive from then on!"

"I am very honored to meet several heroes here today. I respect them very much. I will offer you a glass of Brother Zhang's wine."

Several people drank it all in one gulp.

Because Lu Yi had already introduced himself before, he did not mention himself again. Instead, he introduced Gao Shun and Lu Bu who were beside him to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

When introducing Gao Shun, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were respectful but still very polite.

But when Lu Yi introduced his second brother Lu Bu, Guan Yu couldn't help but look surprised.

"So this man is the bravest Lu Bu in Hebei, Lu Fengxian. No wonder he is even stronger than Guan. The world is full of talented people. It seems that we should not underestimate the heroes of the world!"

Zhang Fei was so excited that he jumped up from his seat.

"So you are Lü Bu, Lü Fengxian, who led a lone army to defeat an army of 300,000 Xianbei soldiers?"

"I heard that you killed the Xianbei general Fu Luohanyi and dozens of other Xianbei generals in battle that day. No one could defeat you. Since then, you have become famous all over the world."

"I never thought we would meet again today!"

As Zhang Fei said this, he was about to step forward and pull Lu Bu.

"As the saying goes, meeting is fate. Today, I, Zhang, have finally met a master like you. If we can't learn from each other, I'm afraid I won't be able to drink for several years."

"There is a peach garden in my backyard, which is quite spacious. Fengxian, do you dare to have a competition with me, Old Zhang, in the peach garden?"

Lu Bu was also quite interested when he heard this.

The hero is lonely.

He could best understand Zhang Fei's loneliness in being invincible in Zhuo County.

However, Zhang Fei was only invincible in Zhuo County, while Lu Bu was invincible in the entire Hebei Province and the desert after fighting for several years.

Therefore, Lu Bu was also eager to try.

But now that his brother was by his side, he did not dare to act rashly, so he turned his head and looked at Lu Yi with a questioning look.

“The guest does as he pleases!”

"Since Yide has invited you so kindly, Fengxian should accept it!"

Seeing this, Lu Yi understood his brother's intention, so he naturally agreed with a smile, not wanting to spoil Lu Bu's interest.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Bu smiled, stood up and followed Zhang Fei.

Behind them, Lu Yi, Guan Yu and Gao Shun also followed them.

After arriving at Taoyuan, Zhang Fei ordered his servants to carry out all the weapons in the house. There were swords, spears, swords and halberds, but most of them were short weapons for infantry combat. Lu Yi had not yet seen his iconic Zhangba Snake Spear.

After the discussion, he tapped his forehead and remembered that the Yellow Turban Rebellion had not yet started and Liu, Guan and Zhang had not yet met.

The three people's exclusive weapons that could serve as their business cards, the double-edged sword, the Green Dragon Crescent Blade, and the Zhangba Snake Spear, have not yet been forged.

But then again, his second brother Lu Bu’s Fang Tian Hua Ji did not appear, and he himself did not have a suitable exclusive weapon in his hand!
While Lu Yi was thinking, Zhang Fei in the field could no longer suppress his excitement. He moved his hands and feet slightly and took the initiative to attack Lu Bu.

However, it is different from the market.

In the market, Zhang Fei was able to fight back and forth with Guan Yu, but now when he met Lu Bu, he was shocked and fell into a tough battle.

Even though Lu Bu did not have the Fang Tian Hua Ji and the Red Hare, he was still able to beat Zhang Fei so hard with his overwhelming strength and fists and feet that he could hardly hold on after more than ten rounds.

Guan Yu had been evenly matched with Zhang Fei before, so if Lu Bu defeated Zhang Fei, wouldn't it be the same as defeating himself at the same time?

Therefore, when he saw this, he immediately stepped forward and advised.

"Brother Zhang Fei, Lu Bu's moves are powerful and mighty, let me take over!"

"Who asked you to come!"

In terms of martial arts, Zhang Fei was no less arrogant than Guan Yu. Even though he was suppressed by Lu Bu at this moment and his face turned red, he still maintained his stubborn attitude.

But Lu Bu on the side was fighting with great enthusiasm. Although Zhang Fei was not his opponent yet, he could already mobilize most of his strength. Therefore, when he saw Guan Yu coming, he immediately laughed loudly in an extremely domineering manner.

"Hahahaha, I'm fighting with Yide, but Yide is already showing signs of defeat. Why is Yunchang standing still? Why don't we go into battle together? I, Lu Bu, am not afraid either!"

"What an arrogant tone!"

Guan Yu was furious when he heard this, and regardless of the unfairness of two against one, he immediately joined the battle to help Zhang Fei fight against Lu Bu.

Zhang Fei, who had been stubborn just now, stopped Guan Yu at this moment. Everyone saw that this was Lu Bu's fault because he was arrogant, not because Zhang Fei and Yun Chang were bullying him!
Zhang Fei, who was originally in a tough battle, immediately stabilized his position with the help of Guan Yu, and Guan and Zhang fought back and forth with Lu Bu again.

"Yunchang and Yide, are you bullying me, the men of Bingzhou?"

"Fengxian, I'm here to help you!"

Gao Shun, who was watching the fight, saw his friend being attacked. How could he bear it? He immediately stepped forward to help.

"Gao Shun, stop!"

Facing the siege of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Lu Bu remained calm. He turned his head and glanced at Gao Shun with a warning in his eyes, which made Gao Shun immediately stop moving forward.

Gao Shun was too familiar with Lu Bu and knew that if he continued to move forward, he would definitely anger Lu Bu.

Moreover, he felt relieved when he saw that Lu Bu looked so relaxed, obviously he did not use his full strength even when facing the siege of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and still had some strength left.

However, Lu Yi did not intervene, but instead kept watching the battle situation with a keen eye.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were both enemies of tens of thousands of people, and they had never been defeated in their careers as generals, except against Lu Bu.

Even if he met one of the Five Tiger Generals such as Ma Chao and Huang Zhong, he would fight to a draw instead of being defeated.

Lu Bu was recognized as the best general in the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period, and no one could defeat him.

Not to mention defeat, even a draw has never happened if we fight alone.

What's more, even if they managed to escape from Lu Bu, people like Gongsun Zan and Wu Anguo would be praised for their bravery.

From this we can see what kind of status Lu Bu holds among the generals of the Three Kingdoms.

Although these three were only sparring with each other and keeping some distance from each other, such a fierce fight still made Lu Yi fascinated.

Although when he had just crossed over, his fighting power had not yet been developed to its limit.

But now, after several years of fighting, his martial arts have improved a lot. He can no longer expect to defeat Lu Bu in this lifetime. It is just that he does not know whether he can defeat Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and other five tiger generals in a head-on battle.

"Fengxian was able to hold his own against two opponents at once. Guan Yu admires him!"

After a long time, the three men finally stopped fighting. Guan Yu said with admiration that it was the first time in his life that he admired another person so much.

"Hahahaha, today's dinner was not in vain. I, Old Zhang, finally had a good fight. Fengxian is really skilled!"

Zhang Fei, who was standing aside, had a look of joy and happiness on his face. He walked forward and patted Lu Bu on the shoulder, laughing happily.

"To be honest with you two, it's hard for me to meet an opponent. Usually, I only need to use a little bit of my strength and the enemy will lie down. It's not fun at all. Usually, only my brother can fight with me. Today, I can meet two heroes who are no less powerful than my brother. Finally, I can use 90% of my strength!"

Lu Bu also looked very pleased and nodded repeatedly.

"What? Only 90% of your strength?"

"How strong is Lu Bu really?"

Guan Yu was secretly shocked when he heard this. Although he used 90% of his strength, he had to know that he was fighting against Zhang Fei and Lu Bu alone!

"Oh? According to what Fengxian said, it seems that the Lord of the Mansion also has some martial arts skills!"

"Okay, okay, today I, Old Zhang, finally get to fight all the fights I've accumulated over half my life. Lord, please don't be polite. Let's go on stage and have a fight together!"

Zhang Fei, who was standing by, became eager to fight after hearing this, and pulled Lu Yi up to fight again.

Zhang Fei was not good at commanding troops or government affairs, but he loved martial arts and was a pure martial arts fanatic.

However, only such a person can make a proud martial saint like Guan Yu admit that he is inferior to him.

"Since Yide invites you, I'm happy to accompany you!"

Lu Yi smiled slightly and gladly accepted the challenge.

However, as soon as the fight started, Lu Yi found that he was no match for Zhang Fei.

Although the two of them fought back and forth and were evenly matched, Zhang Fei had fought with Lu Bu for a long time and had lost some strength.

However, Lu Yi was well prepared and played with full strength.

Therefore, even if it was a draw, Lu Yi still lost.

However, the opponent was a ruthless man like Zhang Fei who would use the Zhangba Snake Spear as a human skewer at any time. Even though he lost, Lu Yi was secretly complacent.

Zhang Fei is now in his prime at the age of about 20. Although he will be able to fight Ma Chao to a draw in the future, Zhang Fei's strength will inevitably decline due to his age. Ma Chao, on the other hand, is in his prime and his strength will not decline in the slightest.

Calculated in this way, Lu Yi felt that he should be able to fight on equal terms with Ma Chao in his prime, and be considered to be one of the top-notch generals!

Moreover, even if he is older and faces the young Ma Chao in the future, he doesn’t have to worry about losing.

After all, the way of a military commander, besides strength, martial arts, weapons and mounts are all important reliances.

As one of the princes, even though Lu Yi has not been equipped with them yet, he will definitely not lack magical weapons and famous horses in the future.

Moreover, unlike Zhang Fei, who charged and attacked fiercely and relied mainly on strength to crush his opponents, he was more like a nimble general like Zhao Yun, who excelled in skills and agility.

Although his strength has reached its limit now, there is no possibility of further improvement in the future.

However, there is no such thing as a young age when it comes to martial arts. As long as Lu Yi studies hard and practices diligently, and constantly breaks through his own bottlenecks, there will be a lot of room for improvement in the future.

After all, any skill becomes more popular as it gets older, and the same goes for martial arts.

In the future, even if Lu Yi faces the younger and stronger Ma Chao, he can still use his rich and sophisticated martial arts to bully the up-and-coming star.

However, in the future journey, Lu Yi still needs to remain cautious. After all, there are always people better than you.

If he encounters an ancient evil warrior like Dian Wei who can hold up the falling Yamen flag with one hand, or if he meets Huang Zhong who is in his prime, he still has to be careful, otherwise he will easily fail.

After all, a fierce man like Dian Wei was able to single-handedly resist Zhang Xiu's revengeful attack, and when his double halberds were stolen by Zhang Xiu's general Hu Che'er, he actually used one enemy halberd in each hand as a weapon. This shows how powerful this man is. He is simply an ancient ferocious beast in human skin.

Not to mention Huang Zhong.

Even when he was old and weak, he was still able to fight Guan Yu, who was in his prime, on equal terms and not be at a disadvantage.

Now he is young and strong. Even if he faces Lu Yi's second brother Lu Bu, Lu Yi dare not assert that Lu Bu will be the winner in the end.

Fortunately, one of the two is now in the wild and his whereabouts are unknown, and although the other has already entered officialdom, he is only a low-level military officer with little reputation.

With some work in the future, Lu Yi might be able to subdue these two people under his command like he did today.

Lu Yi and Zhang Fei fought fiercely for a while and then stopped fighting.

After he rested for a while, Guan Yu also felt itchy and stepped forward to challenge him. This time both of them gave it their all and were evenly matched.

Therefore, Lu Yi understood clearly in his heart that he was slightly inferior to Zhang Fei in terms of martial arts, and was at the same level as Guan Yu.

He felt quite proud in his heart, as it was worthy of the fact that he had never forgotten martial arts since he traveled through time. He studied hard and practiced diligently all day long, and often dragged Lu Bu to be his sparring partner to make things difficult for himself.
