Ji Han Grand Commander

Chapter 22. The Fight Begins

The two of them didn't pay much attention to the one-sided massacre on the field. Xiang Chong also knew that it was already very remarkable that he had come this far, so he chose to concentrate on discussing the art of formation with Feng Xi.

Feng Xi had a vision for the future and spoke very clearly. He also shared with Xiang Chong some famous formations such as the Mandarin Duck Formation and the Queyue Formation, as well as their usage environments.

"Front Army General Feng Xi's personal guards won, 383 of them survived!"

This number of people surprised Feng Xi a little. He knew that he had lost less than thirty soldiers when fighting against Changsha. How come he lost more people when facing Xiang Chong?

After seeing Xiang Chong off, Feng Xi turned to look at Zhang Nan. Zhang Nan had been watching the situation on the court just now.

"Wen Jin, why did we suffer such heavy losses against Juwei's troops?"

Zhang Nan also looked somewhat helpless.

"There's no way, Xiu Yuan. Ju Wei seems to know that he can't attack head-on. His troops are almost all on the defensive, which leads to heavy losses when our army breaks through."

Feng Xi understood immediately that Xiang Chong was indeed safe. He knew that he could not defeat Feng Xi's troops, so he simply switched to defense. If it were not for his own elite guards, it would be difficult to capture Xiang Chong.

After this match, Feng Xi only needs to wait for the results of the other matches to come out and he will know who he will play against. Today there will only be four teams left, and they will compete against each other in pairs.

As Feng Xi expected, two of the remaining three teams were the personal guards of the Five Tiger Generals, namely Zhang Sanye's Yanyun Cavalry and Zhao Yun's White Horse Volunteers.

The other general was promoted purely by luck. His name, Feng Xi, had never been heard of before and he was also an unknown general.

The final semi-final was also a strong confrontation, with Zhao Yun's Baima Yicong facing Zhang Fei's Yanyun Cavalry, and Feng Xi attacking the general.

Not to mention the fierce fighting over there, the other side also fought symbolically for a while after seeing that it was Feng Xi, but when they found that their troops were scattered like snowflakes, they surrendered directly. There was no need to fight any further.

"Hey, I don't want us to end up facing the three generals."

Zhang Nan saw that Zhang Fei's Yanyun Cavalry relied on a desperate fighting style to finally defeat the Baima Yicong, and he only had less than a few dozen people left. He couldn't help but sigh.

"...Right General Zhang Fei announced that he would forfeit the next match, so the winner of this military competition is Front Army General Feng Xi!"

A messenger came down from the stage and said something to the referee, who suddenly decided to end the game.

"what?"

Zhang Nan, who was originally rubbing his hands and preparing his soldiers to fight, was stunned, and Feng Xi was also slightly surprised.

Since the parties involved were like this, the other generals who were watching the battle could not help but talk about it. Some people felt that Feng Xi was lucky as he faced an unknown general in the semi-finals, and the soldiers' physical and mental strength were not damaged too much. On the other hand, Zhang Fei's troops were fighting with Zhao Yun's troops in high spirits, and even if they won, it would be difficult for them to defeat Feng Xi's personal guards who were well-rested.

Some people also think that this is simply an attempt to promote Feng Xi. It seems that the upper echelons' strong praise for Feng Xi means that the name of the Shenwu Camp has already been decided.

Of course, there are also some people who are more naive. They were just surprised that Zhang Fei suddenly gave up, but they had no other thoughts.

In short, no matter what the spectators thought, Feng Xi just sat there and won the military competition.

"The military fight will end here today. The dominance of Feng Xi and Feng Xiuyuan's troops is a fact that everyone has witnessed. I hereby grant the name of 'Shenwu Camp' to Feng Xiuyuan's 3,000-man unit, and it will be under my direct jurisdiction." Old Liu also saw the opportunity and announced the first reward.

"The other rewards will be given out after the second round of fighting. All the generals should go back and recuperate today so that they can prepare for the fight tomorrow."

"Hey, I didn't expect that we would get such a big benefit. The three generals actually gave up directly, saving us from a hard battle."

Zhang Nan was quite delighted by this great news, and couldn't help but chattering to Feng Xi on the way back to the camp.

"The third general probably thinks that his side's fighting power is only one tenth of what it was, and even if he forces us to fight again, he will not get any benefits, so he simply gives in to us, which also appears to be generous. In addition, the king thinks highly of you and me, so the third general may also think so."

Feng Xi had considered more than Zhang Nan. He probably had already informed Liu Bei and was waiting for Zhang Fei to give him a break. Seeing that he had successfully made it to the last day, he probably thought that Liu Bei had already given him the title of the Shenwu Camp.

Feng Xi even had a feeling that even if he faced Zhao Yun's White Horse Volunteers, the other side would probably let him win. The way the above people trained young people really made Feng Xi feel ashamed.

"Wen Jin, don't slack off. Tomorrow we will be fighting on the same stage. If I meet you, I will not show mercy."

"What you said, if you show mercy, it's only a dozen or twenty rounds, what's the difference?"

Zhang Nan complained, but he still silently returned to the army with Feng Xi, and continued to work late into the night to hone his martial arts. Even if he couldn't beat the pervert Feng Xiuyuan, he had to defeat the others.

Compared to military fights, people are much more interested in generals' fights. After all, most people cannot personally take part in military fights and can only watch anxiously from the sidelines.

The situation is different for generals' fights, as they can pick up weapons and fight on the field themselves, although there are two restrictions: being below the level of four generals and being under the age of 45.

As a military hero, Feng Xi was also being watched by many people. After all, there were also generals who were good at deploying troops but not very brave, such as Cao Ren and Man Chong of Cao Wei, and several generals of Jiangdong.

The young generals who didn't know Feng Xi's background were also eager to fight. If they couldn't beat you, Feng Xiuyuan, in a military fight, could they not beat you in a general fight?

Not to mention others, even Liu Ning and Du Lu, although smiling, looked at Feng Xi with somewhat unfriendly eyes.

"Hey, Xiu Yuan, it seems like you have become the fat meat surrounded by wolves."

Zhang Nan looked at the looks of the people around him and couldn't help but make a joke.

"If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. Since the king wants to promote me, I must also show my ability to convince others. Otherwise, even if I become a general or a commander-in-chief, won't there still be people who are dissatisfied with it?"

Feng Xi was very open-minded about this. Since Liu Bei wanted him to prove himself and gave him this stage to surpass other heroes, he should seize the opportunity.

Even Feng Xi had already somewhat understood Liu Bei's intentions. Liu Bei's purpose might be more far-reaching than he thought.

I originally thought that Liu Bei just wanted to pave the way for my promotion by showing my performance in the competition, but now it seems that it is probably more than that.

Liu Bei seemed to intend to let himself lead the second generation of generals and become the leader of the second generation of young generals.
