Ji Han Grand Commander

Chapter 23. Defending the Ring
"General Feng is indeed amazing. I have no problem admitting my defeat..."

To the surprise of all those who were waiting to see Feng Xi make a fool of himself, it was discovered that Feng Xi was not only quite good at deploying troops, but his martial arts skills were also quite good.

In this competition which was similar to the audition stage, Feng Xi went straight up and occupied a stage to be the champion. Facing several young players who were quite dissatisfied with him, Feng Xi used his sharp marksmanship to send them off the stage.

The arena is also divided into infantry combat and cavalry combat, but Feng Xi naturally chose cavalry combat. After all, he would definitely focus on cavalry combat in the future, and infantry combat would easily lead to criticism, as people would think that he was not good at cavalry combat.

"General Feng, I am grateful for your care in Jundou. I have come here today to ask for your advice."

Liu Ning rode a yellow horse to the ring with a sinister look on his face. It was obvious that he was not convinced and wanted to get back some face by fighting.

"Okay, okay, General Liu, I'm sorry for the rudeness."

Feng Xi still looked calm on the outside, and it was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry, but his disdain for the two people was becoming increasingly obvious.

Countless Han army generals died in the Battle of Yiling, including myself and Zhang Nan who were following the original timeline, and Fu Rong who led his troops to the death to cover the enemy. However, among so many people who died in the battle, there were two generals who surrendered, namely Liu Ning and Du Lu.

Unlike Huang Quan, Huang Quan had his retreat cut off and had no choice but to surrender to Wei. However, Liu Ning and Du Lu chose to surrender directly to Eastern Wu and submit to Lu Xun.

Feng Xi didn't have any special feelings towards the two men, after all, they were not responsible for the situation at that time. But now it seems that given the character of these two men, even if they didn't surrender at that time, they would surrender to others sooner or later.

Liu Ning used a long-handled mace, which looked like Qin Ming, the Thunderbolt Fire in "Water Margin". Feng Xi did not dare to be careless either, for a general with a hammer and axe could not be defeated by force, and people who used such weapons were usually extremely strong.

As soon as the weapons of both sides came into contact, Feng Xi roughly tested Liu Ning's strength. His strength was indeed great, but not unmatched. Compared with Zhang Fei, he was only 70% to 80% of Zhang Fei's level. For Feng Xi, he could even fight against him in force.

However, Feng Xi did not do so. Instead, he pretended to be no match for the opponent and fought with some restraint.

Liu Ning was overjoyed. As expected, Feng Xi's arm strength was not as good as his. Liu Ning had seen this kind of performance many times. Whenever the opponent could not match him in strength, he would start to make up for it in speed and skills. He only needed to continue to suppress him with force, and sooner or later the opponent would be unable to withstand it.

"drink!"

Liu Ning used a powerful move to smash the Huashan Mountain directly towards Feng Xi's horse's head. This move was indeed quite dark, even if it didn't hurt Feng Xi, it would still make him feel distressed that he had killed a BMW for no reason.

Feng Xi frowned, he was annoyed by Liu Ning's shady move. He originally planned to take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness and defeat him with force, but Liu Ning stopped him from doing this.

The spear in Feng Xi's hand was as fast as a phantom in an instant, and five real and fake spear flowers pierced Liu Ning's chest, which was exposed after he split Huashan with force.

"not good!"

Liu Ning was shocked. Feng Xi's speed suddenly increased by a lot. He definitely couldn't defend against him.

"In that case, don't even think about your BMW's life!"

Liu Ning's face was ferocious, and he simply stopped defending. He put all the strength of his arms forward, ready to smash the top of the BMW under Feng Xi's crotch with one blow.

Liu Ning knew that this was a competition and Feng Xi would not dare to kill him, but if he killed the opponent's beloved horse, it would definitely have an impact on Feng Xi's subsequent performance, and even if there was a punishment, it would not be too severe.

"What a thief!"

Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun were watching clearly on the stage. If this happened on the battlefield, I'm afraid no general would do such a thing as Liu Ning's life in exchange for a horse.

But this is a competition, he won't lose his life, but it's hard to say about Marco.

"Humph."

Feng Xi seemed to have expected this, and the spear in his hand did not stop, stabbing straight at Liu Ning's chest. Liu Ning began to panic. "Impossible, does Feng Xi really dare to kill me?! Impossible, if he kills me here, he will not be able to escape the trial of the officials! He is scaring me!"

Liu Ning finally decided to take a gamble and continued to hit the target regardless of the consequences. He was betting that Feng Xi would stop or change his tactics at the last moment.

"puff……"

A huge force came from Liu Ning's chest, and he and his weapon flew off the horse and landed on the ground one or two meters away.

However, he saw that the spear in Feng Xi's hand had been turned upside down at some point, with the handle facing him.

"Cough cough..."

Even so, Liu Ning was hit hard by the gun handle and felt that his internal organs were displaced. He lay on the ground for a long time and couldn't get up.

"I'm sorry, General Liu."

Feng Xi still had that indifferent expression, and it was impossible to tell whether he was sad or happy.

"This move by Feng is both ingenious and dangerous."

Zhang Fei was also a little worried. After all, if the person holding the spear was not skilled enough, he might lose his hand. Not to mention how risky it would be to temporarily change the direction of the spear on the battlefield.

However, Feng Xi's handling of the matter, apart from making Liu Ning lose some face, saved his beloved horse and did not hurt anyone, so everyone was happy.

"Ahem... General Feng is a master of martial arts. I admire him."

Since Liu Ning had been knocked off his horse, he had naturally failed, and there was no other explanation. If he attacked again without knowing the consequences, Feng Xi would have a legitimate reason to kill him on the spot.

Liu Ning could only gasp and admit defeat. But only he knew what he was thinking.

Liu Bei also saw this scene, frowned slightly, and shook his head imperceptibly.

For a general, a good horse is like a second life. Liu Ning was so ruthless during a sparring match, it seems that he has a bad character.

After Liu Ning, several other young players came up to challenge, but none of them were Feng Xi's match. After Feng Xi won ten consecutive games, the referee signaled to Feng Xi that he had passed this round and could prepare to participate in the official competition tomorrow.

Feng Xi's fight was almost over, so he looked around for Zhang Nan. He saw that Zhang Nan was also guarding an arena and was fighting a fierce battle with a general in his forties.

The general was obviously trying to get into the competition, and his subordinates' moves were quite methodical. He was obviously a veteran of the battlefield, and he and Zhang Nan were evenly matched for a while.

Unfortunately, Zhang Nan was still one step ahead of Feng Xi thanks to the moves he learned from him. After fighting with him for more than twenty rounds, he was able to knock the sword away with one shot.

"General Zhang is a master of martial arts. I am willing to admit that he is superior to me."

The middle-aged general immediately bowed, pulled out the big sword that was stuck in the ground, and rode away in a dashing manner, appearing to have an extraordinary demeanor.

Zhang Nan was also relatively relaxed. After all, young generals who were confident in their abilities would usually occupy a stage for themselves and rarely challenge others.

Apart from Feng Xi, many people came specifically for him, wishing they could slap him in the face, so the other arenas seemed extremely relaxed.
