Chapter 262 Dian Wei vs Xu Huang
Xu Huang felt something was wrong the first time he saw Dian Wei.

This guy is too strong!
The two short spears were like windmills, crushing countless flesh and blood along the way.

What’s worse is the five hundred personal guards behind Dian Wei.

Even though Xu Huang had 500 elite soldiers of the Baibo Army who were trained with great effort before him, he still felt that he was no match for them.

So Xu Huang came from behind the formation to the front, holding a long-handled axe and challenging Dian Wei.

"Do you dare to fight me?"

Dian Wei didn't dare to be careless and make mistakes. He waved his hand and said, "You guys go kill the enemy's elite first. I will capture this thief first!"

Xu Huang was anxious. He wanted to use a battle of generals to hold Dian Wei back, but Dian Wei was not fooled.

But I can’t care so much.

In Xu Huang's view, Dian Wei must be the commander-in-chief of the army. As long as Dian Wei is killed, the Yangzhou army will collapse without a fight.

"drive!"

Xu Huang rode his horse ahead, hoping to use his height to defeat the shorter one.

Little did people know that Dian Wei had not been training idle these days. With so many powerful generals in the army, Dian Wei would seek out Zhang Fei and Guan Yu for sparring every now and then.

And it was a battle between infantry and cavalry.

Although I lost more than I won, it’s still a big improvement!

"Well done!"

Dian Wei's short spear in his left hand danced dizzily, while the short spear in his right hand was hidden at the edge of his vision.

When Xu Huang's horse approached, he made a fake thrust with the short spear in his left hand and poked the horse with the short spear in his right hand.

Xu Huang didn't expect Dian Wei to be so insidious that he forcibly changed his move from splitting Huashan with force to chopping.

"choke!"

One axe blocked Dian Wei's two attacks.

Xu Huang wanted to use the horse's power to overwhelm Dian Wei, but he never expected that he fell into Dian Wei's trap.

The competition with Guan Yu made Dian Wei realize that as long as the warhorse was stopped, fighting on foot was much more powerful than fighting on horseback.

However, the competition with Zhang Fei made Dian Wei realize that a fierce general with a good horse was still no match for him.

However, it was obvious at first glance that Xu Huang's warhorse was not an excellent one.

Therefore, Dian Wei wanted to wrestle with Xu Huang and his horse!

"ah!"

Dian Wei roared, his face flushed like Guan Yu.

One man and one horse, but they lost the wrestling match!
The warhorse was overturned, and Xu Huang rolled to the ground to avoid being crushed by the horse.

When Xu Huang stood up, Dian Wei strode towards him like a demon, holding two halberds.

"Cho, cho, cho!"

Xu Huang didn't know that he must not let Dian Wei get close to him.

The long axe was originally heavy and inflexible, and Dian Wei got close to him. The two short spears attacked him like a storm, which was a move that no normal person could handle.

Sure enough, after only ten rounds, Xu Huang seemed to be struggling, and by the twentieth round he was already on the verge of collapse.

At this moment.

Yang Feng brought his men to the scene, wanting to lend a helping hand to Xu Huangchi.

"Gongming, go!"

But Xu Huang is not the only teammate.

"Dian Wei! I'm here to help you!"

Dong Xian arrived with the main force of the Second Battalion, and attacked Yang Feng's confidant, and also fought with Yang Feng himself.

Xu Huang felt bitter and felt that he would die here today.

"There is a flaw!"

Dian Wei's double halberds struck with lightning speed, knocking away the long axe in Xu Huang's hand.

Xu Huang held his neck high and dared not move, but Dian Wei pressed the tip of his halberd against his neck.

"Tie me up!"

Dian Wei greeted him happily. Xu Huang was able to fight with him for more than twenty rounds on foot. In Dian Wei's eyes, he must be a high-ranking enemy officer.

Capturing a high-ranking official alive is equal to a super great achievement!
At the very least, he would be promoted to a colonel by several ranks. Dian Wei felt happy when he thought of that scene.

"Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up!"

However, all the royal guards were out chasing after him, and only Dong Xi's main camp was nearby. Who would care about Dian Wei?

The Imperial Guards had no command authority during battle.

After waiting for a long time and seeing no movement, Dian Wei decided to take action himself and warned: "Don't move, be careful of the halberd in my hand."

However, Xu Huang took advantage of the moment when Dian Wei's attention was diverted, rolled backwards to create some distance, and then with a few leaps, he jumped onto a nearby warhorse and clamped his legs around the horse's belly.

The warhorse stood up and started forward.

At this moment, Xu Huang heard a whistling sound behind his ear, which was the sound of a sharp weapon tearing through the air.

"Swish" a short spear pierced directly through the horse's butt, killing the warhorse on the spot!
Accompanied by the mournful cry of the warhorse, Xu Huang had no time to escape and fell to the ground along with the warhorse.

What's worse is that his right leg was pinned down by the horse and he couldn't get up for a while.

"Mad, run!"

Dian Wei walked over, cursing, "Keep running!"

"damn thing!"

"It would be great if you just surrendered, but you chose to suffer for yourself!"

"Do you think you are cheap?"

Xu Huang was filled with grief and indignation. He tried hard to pull his right leg out while shouting angrily, "A soldier can be killed but not humiliated! Kill me if you dare!"

"Oh, he really is a high-ranking official?"

Dian Wei was extremely happy. In his opinion, those who could call themselves scholars were all educated people.

He has high combat prowess on the battlefield and is well-educated, so what else could he be but a high-ranking official?
"Hey, don't worry!"

"I will never kill you."

Dian Wei stripped off the clothes from the corpse, twisted them into a short rope, walked to Xu Huang and kicked him down, leaving him face down on the ground with his back to the sky.

Then, he roughly twisted Xu Huang's hands and tied them behind his back. After tying them up, Dian Wei dragged Xu Huang out from under the horse's corpse.

"ah!"

As soon as Xu Huang was pulled out, he kicked his legs and tried to fight with Dian Wei.

Dian Wei raised his leg and kicked Xu Huang in the stomach without any hesitation.

"Ugh!" Xu Huang vomited on the spot, almost vomiting out the overnight meal, and his whole body curled up into a big shrimp.

"Ignorant of good and evil!"

Dian Wei cursed, "If it weren't for the great merit of living people, it would be better to kill them, you bastard!"

After all the operations, the Baibo Army had completely collapsed and Yang Feng had disappeared long ago.

The Yangzhou army was in pursuit from all sides, and the royal guards were also killing vigorously.

In order to prevent Xu Huang from escaping, Dian Wei had no choice but to give up the credit he had gained and keep watch.

Half an hour later.

The sound of a gong was heard from Mengjin Pass.

"Have you withdrawn your troops?"

Dian Wei couldn't see clearly what was happening on the battlefield ahead, but he thought it wasn't a good thing.

He picked up Xu Huang with one hand and put him under his armpit, while using his other hand to grab the short spear.

Xu Huang was so grief-stricken and angry that he wished he could bite his tongue and commit suicide on the spot, but he couldn't bear to die like this.

He is only twenty years old!

He is in such a prime time and is going to die without having achieved anything. He will die with regrets!

"Put me down!"

Xu Huang was sad and angry: "I can walk!"

Dian Wei snorted coldly: "What if you run away?"

"I won't run away!" Xu Huang gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't it okay if I surrender?"

Dian Wei then happily let Xu Huang down, "You said it yourself. If you dare to run away, I will let the whole world know that you are a villain!"

"By the way, what's your name?"

Xu Huang landed on the ground, shook himself, and said, "I won't change my name or surname." "Xu Huang, that's Xu Gongming!"

"So educated." Dian Wei muttered, "It's great to be educated."

"Huh? That's wrong!"

Dian Wei counted on his fingers: "Xu Rong, Lu Bu, Li Jue..."

After counting the twenty generals with names under Dong Zhuo, Xu Huang was not among them.

"Aren't you a high-ranking official?"

"Not even a lieutenant!?"

Dian Wei stared at Xu Huang with wide eyes. The latter raised his head and said proudly: "It's not the case now, but will it not be the case in the future?"

"Whoaaah!"

Dian Wei felt a feeling he had never experienced before, that was deception!

"damn thing!"

"I wasted so much time trying to catch you, but you turned out to be a petty thief!"

"I'll kill you!"

After saying this, he raised his short spear and was about to stab Xu Huang to death.

At this moment, Xu Huang's eyes seemed to be full of memories, reviewing his short life. The desire to survive outweighed everything.

"I don't want to die! I don't want to die!" Xu Huang shouted in his heart.

His legs went weak and he fell to his knees in front of Dian Wei with a plop, leaving Dian Wei stunned.

"Where's your backbone?"

Xu Huang regained his senses and calmed down. He stood up calmly, as if the spineless person just now was not him.

"I heard that your army does not kill prisoners."

Xu Huang regained his confidence and said, "I have already surrendered. If you kill me, aren't you afraid that the governor of Yangzhou will punish me by military law?"

Dian Wei's neck shrank subconsciously, and just then his personal guards returned to his side, and he started shaking again.

"Who are you trying to scare?!"

"This is a battlefield! What's the big deal if a few prisoners die?"

The imperial guards laughed and said jokingly, "Dian Hongxing, if others kill their lords, they will chop them off without saying a word, but for you, the most you can do is to have your butt chopped into pieces!"

"Go away!" Dian Wei said angrily, "You are the ones who talk too much. Line up now!"

The royal guards didn't take it seriously, but they still lined up honestly.

Xu Huang heard the conversation between the two people and was moved: "This big fool has a high status?"

When Dian Wei turned his head, Xu Huang immediately said: "I heard that the governor of Yangzhou loves talents. If you bring me to the governor, I will guarantee you a great achievement!"

He also added: "From now on, you are my sponsor. When Xu Huang becomes successful, he will never forget your kindness!"

"Tsk, you're still rich now." Dian Wei seemed dissatisfied and put down the short spear in his hand.

Xu Huang added fuel to the fire again, "Even if you kill me now, it will only be an extra head, but if you gamble, you may become extremely rich."

"You are quite a talker." Dian Wei said impatiently, "Go away! Don't force me to kill you!"

Xu Huang's face was filled with anger: "You don't need to say anything!"

Dian Wei just fell for it. He was a knight-errant and liked to hang out with unruly people, so he stopped humiliating Xu Huang.

...

Zoomed viewing angle.

The reason why Zhou Tai withdrew his troops was because Dong Zhuo sent troops out of the north gate to welcome Niu Fu into the city.

The other side's big flag with the word "Xu" on it made Zhou Tai very fearful.

Xu Rong is quite famous.

Although Sun Jian was killed by Lu Bu, the person who set up the ambush and commanded the attack was Xu Rong.

Moreover, Xu Rong has never lost a game since his debut. Whenever he takes action, he will surely succeed.

This is quite scary, and makes Zhou Tai think of someone.

His lord, Jin Mao!
Such people must be treated with caution.

However, Zhou Tai did not know that it was Xu Rong's empty city plan. The people who came were just holding Xu Rong's flag. Xu Rong himself was still fighting against Jin Mao at the east gate of Luoyang.

However, Zhou Tai had already completed the task in excess, so it could not be said to be any loss.

More than 8,000 of Niu Fu's 30,000 troops were killed, 12,000 were captured, and General Fan Chou died at the hands of Guan Yu.

Although Niu Fu ran away, killing a General of the Central Army was definitely a great achievement.

But when Dian Wei learned about this, he was extremely jealous.

Originally, that was his great achievement!

But it was snatched away by Guan Yu, a traitor.

The Yangzhou army viewed Guan Yu as an alien.

The lord was so good to Guan Yu. From a group of veteran generals like Ling Cao and Dong Xi to powerful generals like Huang Gai and Zhou Tai, who was not jealous of Guan Yu to death?
But what about Guan Yu?

You keep talking about loyalty and righteousness, but you never call me lord. What kind of loyalty and righteousness is this?
However, under Jinmao's ban, everyone can only talk about it in private.

But even so, Guan Yu had already discovered it, so he was holding a grudge in his heart.

This time, Guan Yu killed Fan Chou not to prove anything, but to clear his name.

"I am not an ungrateful person!" Guan Yu shouted in his heart: "Your Excellency's kindness and kindness will never be forgotten!"

As long as Liu Bei does not express his position, Guan Yu will remain silent.

Meng Jinguan.

The big meeting room.

Zhou Tai sat in the main seat, and on his left, from top to bottom, were generals Dian Wei, Jiang Qin, Dong Xi, Wen Pin and others.

On the right side, from top to bottom, are generals such as Cheng Pu, Sun Ce, and Guan Yu.

Briefly explain their respective positions.

The left is the most respected. Although Dong Xi's status is higher than Dian Wei's, anyone with a discerning eye knows that after this battle, Dian Wei will definitely be promoted.

No matter how much the new system emphasizes fairness and justice, Jinmao's authority is unquestionable. Whoever he wants to be promoted will be promoted. It will just take some time at most.

Another point is that those sitting on the left are the lord's trusted and beloved generals, and Zhou Tai knows this clearly.

On the right are new generals or generals who are not trusted.

The seating arrangement shows how much Zhou Tai is trusted by his lord.

There is no need to say much about Cheng Pu. The fact that he was entrusted with important tasks as soon as he surrendered and the rear was handed over to him is enough to explain everything.

Sun Ce was not chosen because of Sun Jian, but because Jin Mao also liked him.

Zhou Tai understood one thing in his heart: his lord never hid his emotions very deeply. If he liked something, he liked it; if he hated something, he hated it.

But this does not mean that the lord's thoughts are not deep enough. In Zhou Tai's opinion, many of the lord's actions are beyond even the military advisors' guesses.

For example, when suppressing the nobles, no one knows why the lord does this.

For another example, the lord always has his own logic when judging people, and his vision is never wrong!

The generals present here are the best proof of this, not to mention the counselors, each of them is very awesome.

Take back your thoughts.

Zhou Tai began to arrange the next stage of tasks.

"My Lord's military order!"

All of a sudden, all the generals stood up, placed their right hands flat on their chests, placed their left hands naturally at their sides, and slightly bent over to bow.

This is an ancient military salute that shows respect and loyalty to the lord.

"Order the Huaihe River Navy Commander Zhou Tai to oversee the military and political affairs at Mengjin Pass, with the deputy commanders Jiang Qin, Sima Dong Xi, Qujun Hou Sun Ce and his general Han Dang as his assistants."

"The rest of the generals, return immediately!"

All the generals said in unison: "Follow military orders!"

Zhou Tai said in a deep voice: "Before you set off, please register and review your military achievements to avoid any mistakes."

Suddenly, the atmosphere became lively.

One by one, they began to show off their achievements to the people around them.

"Dian Hongxing, I will be reinstated this time." Dong Xi said happily: "I killed one Sima and three Qu Junhou, which is enough according to my achievements."

"How are you?"

Dian Wei's face was full of confusion, not knowing what to say.
