"What?" Yuan Shao's expression changed.

Xiahou Dun, Guan Yu, and the others also changed their expressions. This power was already the power of a martial artist in the final stage.

Yuan Shao regretted it a bit. He should have known better than to feed Pan Feng's horse the medicine. It could have withstood a few more blows. Now that Pan Feng was dead, who would keep Hua Xiong in check?

What no one saw was a young general in Yuan Shao's camp, his expression fiery, holding a long-handled sword, eager to make his move.

Afterwards, many generals under various warlords were eager to test their strength, but they were all held back by their lords. Now, no one could guarantee Hua Xiong's victory.

Guan Yu stood up and said proudly, "I am willing to go."

Yuan Shao glanced at Liu Bei, and seeing that Liu Bei did not refuse, he agreed, since he had no enmity with Liu Bei!

Then comes the classic scene: Cao Cao warms wine and sends it to Guan Yu!

"Leader, would you be willing to go out and see for yourself? My second brother will surely defeat Hua Xiong!" Liu Bei said with a smile.

Liu Bei is now a warlord, and his words still carry some weight, so the other warlords naturally went out to see what was going on.

Then Guan Yu didn't ride a horse, but walked over slowly and leisurely, and strangely enough, he walked in a perfectly straight line!

Hua Xiong looked at Guan Yu with a cold smile. The allied forces were indeed deserted; he sensed no threat whatsoever.

Having gathered enough momentum, Guan Yu roared, "Hua Xiong, remember that it was Guan Yu, Guan Yunchang, who beheaded you!"

Then, with a sudden slash, a deep green blade of light descended, instantly creating a sonic boom!

boom!

Hua Xiong sensed something was wrong with the first blow. He struggled to raise his ancient sword, trying to retaliate, but was blasted away by the attack.

"How is this possible?" Hua Xiong spat out a mouthful of blood and roared in disbelief.

Before Hua Xiong could catch his breath, the second slash came down fiercely!

"Open for me!" Hua Xiong roared, his fiery red inner energy enveloping his entire body, his terrifying aura rising against the tide!

However, being useless is like a giant rock facing the ocean tide; you can't resist it and can only watch helplessly!

Hua Xiong was blasted away by this attack.

"There really is a second Lü Bu in this world?" Hua Xiong thought in disbelief.

Guan Yu was about to unleash a slash when he thought about Chen Xi's words and ultimately changed his attack to a slap.

A huge cloud of smoke was raised!

Guan Yu, having captured Hua Xiong, flew back to the allied forces and said, "I have successfully completed my mission!"

Then he turned around, took the wine from Cao Cao, and drank it down in one gulp.

"Wow, it's so hot!" Guan Yu thought to himself.

The feudal lords all watched in silence as this bearded man killed Hua Xiong with three strikes?

No!

Was Xiang Yu really that fierce?

"Leader, Sishui Pass is leaderless. We can take it now!" Cao Cao said instantly.

However, Yuan Shao's eyes lit up, and he instantly drew his sword and charged out.

After that, the feudal lords exchanged pleasantries with Liu Bei, trying to poach his men. Liu Bei, of course, knew what was going on, and at this point, he could just laugh it off.

Then came various explanations, such as the explanation of Guan Yu's move. After that, Dong Zhuo heard that Hua Xiong had died in battle and Sishui Pass had been captured. Then, he killed Grand Tutor Yuan Huai at the dinner table. After that, more than a thousand members of the Yuan family were sent to the allied forces by Dong Zhuo!

Yuan Shao, who was in a good mood, immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Dong Zhuo, I will never let you get away with this!" Yuan Shao roared, his eyes bloodshot.

Unlike Yuan Shu, who was born of the principal wife, Yuan Shao was adopted. His true family member was Grand Tutor Yuan Huai.

"Bring Yan Liang and Wen Chou here, and send troops to destroy Dong Zhuo!"

"We will march out of Sishui, capture Hulao Pass, and use Dong Zhuo's head to appease the more than one thousand members of my Yuan family!" Yuan Shao roared.

Going against the grain makes one a model for the world; following the grain brings about the end of all things!

Burdened by blood feud, Yuan Shao changed completely. He handled every matter of the allied forces fairly and decisively. Under such circumstances, even Yuan Shu, who considered himself the eldest son, dared not provoke Yuan Shao!

Ju Shou looked at Yuan Shao with shining eyes; this was practically a ruler sent to him by the world!

Afterwards, Chen Xi analyzed the civil officials of the world for Liu Bei.

Gongsun Zan then replenished Liu Bei's troops, including three hundred White Horse Cavalry.

Jiang Shu looked at the newly arrived cavalry with great interest in his eyes.

"Is this the White Horse Cavalry? The White Horse Cavalry that has been invincible throughout Youzhou!" Jiang Shu asked, looking at the messenger who had been brought to him.

"Yes, this is the White Horse Cavalry!" Zhao Yun said.

Chen Xi inquired about Gongsun Zan's situation, and then this Du Bo explained Gongsun Zan's predicament: the Hu people had begun invading Youzhou again, but Gongsun Zan was currently attending a meeting of feudal lords and could not leave.

Chen Xi said, "It's simple. Just have Lord Xuande help keep watch, and Gongsun Zan can go back. Besides, no one else can say anything about it. It's about guarding the frontier and protecting the country."

Gongsun Zan's eyes grew brighter as he listened to the explanation from the chieftain. He rushed to the meeting place of the feudal lords to explain the situation, gave half of his soldiers to Liu Bei, and then led five thousand White Horse Cavalry to ride back at full speed. He wanted to let those barbarians know what it meant to die if you dare to cross the border!

Suddenly, Liu Bei had much more money at his disposal, with more than 10,000 soldiers.

Later, Li Ru suggested to Dong Zhuo that he give Gongsun Zan an official position to check and balance Liu Yu, but not a higher one than Liu Yu, presumably so that they could be one civil and one military official to check and balance each other.

After that, the allied forces began to attack Hulao Pass. However, no matter how much Yan Liang and Wen Chou jumped around, or how Guan Yu and Zhang Fei joined the fray, even though Yuan Shao's allied forces had gained some fighting strength, they could not break through Xu Rong's 50,000 elite troops who were guarding Hulao Pass.

Jiang Shu looked indifferently at Hua Xiong, who was being beaten by Guan Yu, and shook his head, saying, "Why bother?"

However, Jiang Shu still had a good impression of the loyal Hua Xiong. He wondered how that kid Ji Furen managed to subdue that group of arrogant and fierce soldiers after Hua Xiong died. Ji Fengzhou must have given him enough resources, but that was the army he had personally led. He was confident that even without his leadership, they would not lose so easily!

"Mingzhi, hurry up and train the troops. I don't have high requirements. With these 10,000 soldiers, a basic training camp in the Three Rivers and Five Schools will suffice," Chen Xi said cheerfully.

"We'll have more She Sheng and Chang Shui, and some Yue Qi and Tiger Guards, that should be enough. You can lead them. I think there's nowhere in this world that we can't go," Chen Xi said.

Zhao Yun, standing nearby, was completely bewildered. What was he saying? The Three Rivers and Five Schools? And wasn't Chen Xi making a wish? Even though Zhao Yun had heard of the Three Rivers and Five Schools' reputation when he was training with Tong Yuan!

That was a terrifying army that annihilated Zhang Jiao's Yellow Turban warriors!

Jiang Shu smiled faintly: "The basic Three Rivers and Five Schools are very simple, but Three Rivers and Five Schools that have not experienced battle are ultimately not the real Three Rivers and Five Schools."

"As for the White Horse Cavalry, they truly live up to their reputation as an invincible cavalry force that has swept across the north; their quality is truly excellent."
