A thousand-year-old family begins with one fighting against ten thousand.
Chapter 230: Saving Pan Feng
Liu Bei and Sun Jian had been comrades-in-arms during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and he was certain that at that time, Sun Jian only had his four generals behind him.
There is absolutely no such young man.
He saw the same temperament in this young man as that of Uncle Wei.
"That person is Wei Hai, a descendant of the lineage left behind by Marquis Wu'an on Zhuyai Island."
Wei Shu also noticed Sun Jian's side, as Sun Jian was the biggest obstacle to their rise to fame.
Sun Jian was a very brave man, known as the Tiger of Jiangdong. His four retainers were all formidable men, and their strength was definitely not to be underestimated.
However, he was confident in Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's abilities, believing there would be many opportunities in this war, and that they would definitely have their moment to shine.
Moreover, Liu Bei was truly lucky. Among the White Horse Cavalry that Gongsun Zan sponsored, there was a fierce general whose martial prowess was no less than that of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, capable of defeating ten thousand men.
Moreover, this fierce general is different from ordinary fierce generals; he is quite humble and eager to learn. With proper training, he will surely become a commander who can govern a region.
This is far more valuable than one or two fierce generals.
Unless someone is as fierce as the Loyal and Martial King, or like those freaks from the Wei family who can single-handedly break through a city, a commander is far more important than a fierce general.
"Could it be that our vast allied forces can't even handle a mere Hua Xiong?!"
"If my generals Yan Liang and Wen Chou were here, would they allow this scoundrel from Xiliang to be so arrogant?"
Yuan Shao, like an enraged lion, surveyed his territory, finally fixing his gaze on Han Fu.
"Governor Han, I've heard you have an unparalleled general under your command. Do you dare to go into battle?"
Pan Feng stood behind Han Fu, showing no fear whatsoever, even though Yuan Shao was the leader of the allied forces, without Han Fu's command.
Han Fu was wary of the Yuan family and his own background, and he also wanted to make a name for himself in this war so that he could be promoted in his official position and title. So he nodded.
Pan Feng stepped out from behind Han Fu, a move that deepened the gloom in Yuan Shao's heart.
Now that the world is in chaos, he needs a base of operations, and the population of Ji Province ranks among the top in the entire Han Dynasty.
Furthermore, it connects Bingzhou and Youzhou, two of the best sources of soldiers and horses, and has the natural barrier of the Yellow River and the vast grasslands as its depth, making it the best place for him to start his fortune.
Han Fu is the biggest obstacle to his occupation of Ji Province. Pan Feng is powerful and loyal to Han Fu, so don't blame him for resorting to underhanded tactics.
Pan Feng held a large Xuanhua axe, the blade of which was as big as a door panel, clearly indicating that he was a person with superhuman strength.
"Why don't we all step forward and see how impressive the peerless general of Ji Province is?"
Yuan Shao had an idea, stood up, and led the way outside.
The other lords followed closely behind. By the time they reached the camp, Pan Feng and Hua Xiong had already fought dozens of rounds. They were evenly matched, and neither could gain the upper hand.
Hua Xiong's martial arts were more refined, and his moves were sharper. Pan Feng was born with superhuman strength, and his two large axes, each weighing tens of kilograms, grazed and injured him, using force to break through all techniques.
Han Fu personally beat the drum to cheer on Pan Feng, but after only a few beats, he was too exhausted and had to return the drumsticks to the drummer.
"Who are you! State your name!"
The two crossed paths again, and Hua Xiong felt a long-lost surge of passion. He asked Pan Feng, who was opposite him.
"The one who killed you is Pan Feng, the unparalleled general of Ji Province."
Pan Feng roared and slapped his warhorse, which then charged toward Hua Xiong as if it were a spirit.
Hua Xiong, wielding his broadsword, charged forward once more.
"Alas!"
Pan Feng's warhorse stumbled on the battlefield, throwing Pan Feng's head forward. Hua Xiong seized the opportunity to slay him and cut off Pan Feng's head.
"Zilong, save them!"
The white-robed general beside Wei Shu drew his bow and shot an arrow, which grazed Hua Xiong's ear, leaving a trail of blood.
In order to defend against the arrow, Hua Xiong quickly withdrew his move, giving Pan Feng a chance to catch his breath.
A hint of regret flashed in Yuan Shao's eyes. Liu Bei really had many tricks up his sleeve. If Pan Feng had died here, his plan would have gone even more smoothly.
But it doesn't matter, the battlefield has no eyes, he will have many more opportunities.
Moreover, he had already made arrangements in Ji Province. By the time the war ended, it was still uncertain who would rule Ji Province!
Pan Feng dismounted, raised his great axe, and swung it at Hua Xiong's horse's hooves.
Hua Xiong's warhorse was not as agile as him. Facing Pan Feng's attack, one of its hooves was chopped off, and Hua Xiong fell to the ground. The two then switched to foot combat, fighting for over 100 rounds without a clear victor.
Both sides began to call a retreat, and Pan Feng even used one hand to pull his mount back.
Han Fu personally greeted Pan Feng; his beloved General Wushuang almost lost his life.
"Xuande, thank you so much!"
"If Xuande is willing, I can submit a memorial to the court, recommending that Xuande be appointed as the governor of Zhongshan Prefecture. That place can be considered Xuande's ancestral home, bringing glory to his ancestors and allowing him to return to his hometown in honor."
Pulling Pan Feng along, Han Fu went to Liu Bei to thank him, and immediately offered him the position of prefect.
"We are all members of the Allied Forces, so there's no need for thanks."
Liu Bei smiled gently, but there was hesitation in his tone.
"Xuande, speak frankly. There's nothing we can't say to each other."
Han Fu noticed the hesitation in Liu Bei's tone and, having some doubts himself, wanted to ask Liu Bei for confirmation.
"General Wushuang's warhorse must have been a prized horse that Governor Han found for him. How could such a fine horse suddenly stumble like this?"
"That's quite puzzling."
Han Fu sighed, "I've noticed it too, and I've already had someone investigate."
Wushuang suspected that someone had tampered with his horse.
"There aren't many in the league who can do that."
Liu Bei's words were pointed, revealing his deep disappointment with the allied forces. Their advantage was already not obvious, and with so much corruption within the allied forces, their chances of winning seemed slim.
"Yes, they're trying to kill Wushuang. If they're not colluding with the Chang'an court, then they're plotting against Jizhou."
Even without evidence, Han Fu knew perfectly well who did it; all she needed to do was see who benefited the most after Pan Feng's incident.
Yuan Shao.
Pan Feng was his top general, and if Yuan Shao wanted to seize Ji Province, this was an obstacle he couldn't overcome.
"I've heard that the alliance leader has two generals under his command, named Yan Liang and Wen Chou, but these two generals have never been seen. Is there anything more important than this war of the allied forces? I wonder if Governor Han has any clues?"
Wei Shu offered some advice.
Han Fu's face was dark. Besides plotting to seize Ji Province, what could be more important than Yuan Shao, as the leader of the alliance, attacking Dong Zhuo?
He then recalled that Guo Tu and Xin Ping of Ji Province had been urging him to give Ji Province to Yuan Shao.
These two are definitely traitors. Fortunately, we still have Tian Feng, Ju Shou, Shen Pei, and Xun Kan. The two of them can't cause any trouble.
No, he had to write a letter quickly to tell Tian Feng and Ju Shou about Yuan Shao's plot to seize Ji Province.
Tell them to prepare, and at the same time, send Ju Shou over to prevent him from being tricked by Yuan Shao again.
