Yuan Shao, the father of Fanghua in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 945 Fair Showdown
When Xia Houyuan heard this, his frown relaxed a lot, and he said happily: "With the two generals working together, why worry about Guan Yu being undefeated!"

He was confident in saying this. Le Jin was the most loyal and capable general with a foreign surname under Cao Cao. He worked conscientiously in every battle and never made any mistakes. Wen Chou was also specially transferred here to restrain Guan Yu.

As for the level of Wen Chou, Xia Houyuan, who had fought against the Jizhou Army many times, had a deep understanding of it. In Xia Houyuan's view, Wen Chou was no less than Guan Yu in some aspects.

With him taking action tomorrow, we can ensure that our side is undefeated. Together with Le Jin and other generals, not only can we completely defeat Guan Yu, but we can at least push him back to Fancheng for defense.

The generals left the camp and dispersed. When Le Jin saw Wen Chou, he didn't say much to everyone, so he wanted to catch up to him and talk to him, reminding him to be careful.

But Le Jin took a few steps, then stopped and watched Wen Chou leave without pursuing him. Finally, Le Jin shook his head and turned back.

The reason why Le Jin was worried was because a general with a foreign surname like Wen Chou had surrendered not long ago and was forced to submit at the end of his rope. He did not have enough achievements to prove his loyalty. If he got too close to him, the other party might rebel. , wouldn’t it implicate myself?

Wen Chou returned to the camp and saw the Zhangba iron gun standing on the side. He walked over, picked it up with one hand, and looked at it carefully. This gun had been with him for many years and had been stained with the blood of many enemies. There might be another chance to hurt him tomorrow. Drink the blood of Guan Yu, who is famous all over the world.

He held the gun tightly, and unknowingly thought of his wife and tribesmen who had been settled in Xudu. When they broke out in Yecheng, they all fell into the hands of Cao's army, and Wen Chou was also wounded and captured. After hesitation and entanglement, Wen Chou still Chosen to surrender.

To be fair, the treatment and status given by Cao Cao were not bad, but Wen Chou knew what his reputation in the world was like now. This was not a question of whether it was worth it, but that there was no turning back.

"I advise you that those who understand the current affairs are heroes. Cao Gong supports the emperor, recruits heroes from all over the world, and returns home to the people. However, Liu Yuzhou overestimates his own capabilities and tries to use his arms as a chariot. He really does not understand the current affairs."

The three men had no choice but to abandon Xinye, and their newly-established business was destroyed in an instant. Whenever Guan Yu thought of this, he wished he could kill Zhang Xiu as soon as possible.

At this time, Cao Xiu was swinging his sword to strike at Guan Yu, but the loud shout made his eardrums numb. The sword in his hand slowed down slightly, and Guan Yu's Qinglong Saber took advantage of the situation and knocked Cao Xiu's blade apart.

Seeing the ferocity of Cao Xiu's approach, Guan Yu calmly took the hilt of the knife in his hand. When Cao Xiu arrived about ten feet away, he shouted loudly and the long knife in his hand bounced off the ground and went straight towards Cao Xiu.

"You don't need to use your words today. Who dares to come up and fight with the sword in my hand!"

The two armies faced each other. The generals of Cao's army felt thirsty when they saw Guan Yu standing in front of the battle with his sword drawn and majestic. After all, Guan Yu's numerous large and small battles in the past few years had cast a considerable shadow on them. Cao Ying Among the generals, no one has ever been able to get the slightest advantage from Guan Yu.

Cao Xiu rushed forward too hastily and could not hold back his momentum. He raised his sword to block in his busy schedule, only to hear a loud bang as the Green Dragon Saber opened the handle of Cao Xiu's sword and struck Cao Xiu hard on the back.

Hearing this, Xia Houyuan stepped forward and said, "General Guan, Zhang Xiu is not here now. You should think about how to resist my Cao family's army."

"Where is Zhang Xiu who sold Wancheng?"

Before Xia Houyuan could say anything to stop him, Cao Xiu raised the sword high in his hand and already clapped his horse and headed straight for Guan Yu.

Early the next morning, Cao's army marched out in full force and advanced ten miles to Fancheng. Guan Yu had already led an army and was waiting five miles outside the city.

When Guan Yu saw that everyone was standing still, he raised his Green Dragon Sword and shouted, "You are so young, how can anyone dare to fight Guan?"

Cao Xiu was horrified when his long sword bounced away. He quickly grasped the handle of the sword with both hands and slashed hard, but Guan Yu had already turned his horse's head sideways and reached Cao Xiu's side. With a shake of his arm, he slashed with the blade of the sword.

Guan Yu naturally hated Zhang Xiu very much. He and Liu Bei finally found Xinye as a place to stay, but Zhang Xiu betrayed him again and sacrificed Wancheng, turning Xinye into an isolated city.

These words angered Cao Xiu, the new commander of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. He picked up the reins of his horse and rode out with a big sword in his hand, shouting: "I'm not ashamed to say that, I'll meet you!"

"After Cao Cao became a eunuch, he was a despicable villain. He held the emperor hostage, intimidated the world, acted shamelessly, and brought shame to the world!"

"However, Duke Cao was magnanimous and said that if Liu Yuzhou surrendered and surrendered, he would be able to maintain wealth and honor for the rest of his life. General Guan's bravery is rare in the world. If he can surrender to Duke Cao, he will definitely make great achievements and leave his name in history."

After Guan Yu heard this, his eyebrows were raised high, his eyes widened with anger, and he shouted: "Bah!"

Even though he was shielded by armor, Cao Xiu still felt his internal organs vibrating, and his mouth felt sweet. After all, he was experienced, and without looking behind him, he swung his arm and struck a blow with his backhand, but it was all in vain.

However, his original intention was to prevent Guan Yu from using his sword again. It didn't matter whether he hit him or not, and he took the opportunity to speed away.

He dragged the knife and endured the pain, turned his horse head sideways and ran towards his own army formation. Hearing the thunderous sound of hoofbeats behind him, he couldn't help but be frightened. Guan Yu was chasing him! Seeing that the situation was critical, Le Jin rode out and rushed forward. He fired a series of bows and arrows at Guan Yu's face.

Guan Yu swung the Green Dragon Sword continuously and pulled out several arrows shot by Le Jin off his horse. Seeing that Le Jin still shot them with reluctance, he felt angry in his heart. He then swung the Qinglong Sword across the saddle and pulled out the long bow from his back. , with a backhand arrow, he shot off the long bow in Le Jin's hand.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Le Jin quickly covered Cao Xiu and returned to the formation. Seeing the two men in such a mess, all the generals in Cao's camp turned pale when they looked at each other. Guan Yu was invincible in close combat and his bows and arrows were accurate. How could he fight this?
At this time, Xia Houyuan looked at Wen Chou. Wen Chou knew what he meant. He sighed secretly in his heart, rode out on his horse, walked to the front of the formation, cupped his hands to Guan Yu and said, "Wen Chou, Hebei Province, come here to ask for advice."

Guan Yu saw Wen Chou coming out of the battle, with a look of disdain on his face, and shouted: "Those who turn their backs on the lord over and over again have the nerve to fight against Guan!"

Wen Chou's expression remained unchanged as he said, "My lord and master have both passed away. I have a clear conscience."

"Let's not talk nonsense. On the battlefield, after all, force is the most important thing. Who is right and who is wrong depends on who can stand in the end!"

"I advise General Guan not to brag. If he is defeated and dies, it will become a joke!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in Cao's camp shouted and cheered. Guan Yu was so angry that he rushed towards him on horseback and shouted: "Okay!"

"Let me see what Hebei's Four Court Pillars are capable of!"

"Don't be like Yan Liang. I beheaded you and you can't even brag!"

Wen Chou clamped his horse's hips, rushed forward, and shouted: "I also want to see how you were able to kill Yan Liang that day!"

Within a few breaths, the two of them were close to within a few feet. In an instant, they both took action at the same time. The long sword and the iron spear collided with each other at a speed that was imperceptible to the naked eye. The sound that erupted swept across and spread to everyone in Cao's camp. In the ears, the deafening sound echoed in the eardrums, making everyone look pale.

The dense sound of gold and iron rang out, and the sparks of the collision of swords and guns quickly bloomed and then extinguished, just like the fireworks set off by Yuan Xijun on the battlefield, forming a series of sparks, and like a fire dragon circling and flying on the battlefield, covering the two people. body shape.

The generals in Cao's camp looked at Guan Yu's killing moves with swords and swords, but they were all blocked by Wen Chou. They couldn't help but secretly screamed, thinking that if Wen Chou were replaced by themselves, they might not be able to get out of Sanhe, and they would lose their armor and run away!

In the space of more than ten breaths, the two of them exchanged lightning and stone fire for dozens of rounds. Guan Yu was surprised. Several of his extremely threatening moves were actually resolved by Wen Chou. The other party was indeed not a person with a false reputation. This level of force was much better than before. Yan Liang is even worse!

Guan Yu recalled that when he killed Yan Liang, he did take advantage of a sneak attack. If he had fought alone, he might not have been able to defeat Yan Liang. Today, when he fought against Wen Chou, he was even more convinced of this. The fierce general from Hebei must be really capable!
But now the two sides are fighting in a fair battle, and what they are fighting for is strength. Guan Yu roars, and his pride suddenly rises. He wants Wen Chou to understand that he is not the same person he used to be. Now Guan Yu has the strength to defeat the opponent openly!

At that moment, Guan Yu used all his strength, and the Qinglong Sword's attack became higher and higher, rushing towards Wen Chou. Wen Chou blocked it from left to right, waiting for an opportunity to counterattack. The two men quickly turned around with their horses' heads facing their tails. Their figures on the battlefield were no longer able to stand. Distinguish each other.

Le Jin sighed and put down his bow and arrow. He wanted to wait for an opportunity to help, but under such circumstances, the probability of hitting Guan Yu and Wen Chou was the same.

The sword in Guan Yu's hand has been fully deployed. Although his sword is very heavy and his strength is gradually consuming, Guan Yu uses the power of the horse under his crotch to swing the sword, which can save a lot of energy. Since he can't fight quickly, he will be better than his opponent. Fight head-on, until the leader loses strength and his moves collapse!
But as Guan Yu slashed away with each move, and hundreds of moves passed, Wen Chou actually dodged and blocked them all. Guan Yu felt a little anxious in his heart, and for the first time in these years, he felt a little uncertain.

What if you run out of energy before the other person?
Little did they know that Wen Chou now has actually reached his limit.

He gritted his teeth and felt his strength draining away rapidly. He didn't even know if he still had the strength to make the next move.

But what's wrong, the next move can be fired inexplicably, and it can also block the opponent's killer move. Wen Chou suddenly had a feeling, is there another person in his body?

He didn't know how long this state could last, because the moment his strength was exhausted, he was defeated and died, but for some reason, Wen Chou enjoyed this feeling extremely.

How long had it been since he had encountered such a powerful enemy and such a rare life-and-death fight?
Wen Chou seemed to be unable to feel his arms. He just subconsciously drew and retracted his gun, miraculously neutralizing Guan Yu's killing move. He suddenly felt that this might be the best thing that had happened to him in the past few years.

Suddenly his arm sank and his movements slowed down for half a beat.

Finally it was he who gave out his strength first.

With a splat, the Green Dragon Saber passed by, drawing a line of blood from Wen Chou's side.
