Liu Xian led 20,000 soldiers to a stronghold thirty miles away from the county town, near mountains and rivers, preparing to intercept Cao's army.
After his only son left, Liu Du was no longer in the mood to listen to songs, dance, and play with beauties.
Cao Jun's attack put a huge psychological pressure on him. At this time, he just hoped that everything would pass as soon as possible, and then he could continue to live his happy and happy life quietly.
Zhao Yun's army still takes Xia Houlan as the vanguard.
The dragon cavalry army led by Xia Houlan encountered Liu Xian who was intercepting them thirty miles outside Lingling City.
Dazhai lies in the middle of the road, with mountains on one side and rivers on the other.
If Xia Houlan wanted to go over, he could only attack Liu Xian's army camp first.
Xiahoulan's cavalry stood outside Liu Xian's camp, and Liu Xian did not give up at all. Together with Xing Daorong, he led the army out of the camp to fight.
The two armies stood opposite each other and confronted each other.
At this time, Liu Xian and Xing Daorong walked out of the Lingling army formation together and came to the front of the formation.
Liu Xian looked at Xia Houlan and saw that the other person was not much older than him, so he felt a little scornful.
With a slight scorn in his tone, Liu Xian pointed his riding whip at Xia Houlan and asked, "General Cao! Why did you invade my situation for no reason? If you retreat quickly, I can pretend I didn't see anything!"
After hearing this, Xia Houlan was dumbfounded. He turned around and asked Lieutenant Tieniu: "Tieniu, why do you think people here are more confident than others? Is it because they have never seen the world?"
"That's how it is for everyone in the mountains and wilderness!" Tieniu shrugged and said.
Xia Houlan was not used to Liu Xian, so he fought back: "What a monkey! If you know what you are looking for, you will abandon the camp and surrender immediately. Maybe I can let you go... Otherwise, wherever my cavalry goes, there will be rubble."
Don’t stay!
"
Liu Xian is a hot-blooded man, and no one in Lingling County has ever dared to disobey him. How could he be pointed at and scolded like today?
Xia Houlan's attitude was extremely arrogant, which immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the tall general beside Liu Xian.
The general next to Liu Xian patted his horse and walked forward. He glanced at Xia Houlan and others with contempt, and then shouted coldly: "You have such a big tone, little pretty boy! Wherever the cavalry goes, there will be a lot of violence."
Wabuliu, you, Grandpa Xing, I’m here to learn your clever tricks now!”
When Xia Houlan saw Xing Daorong coming out of the queue, he couldn't help but look at it carefully.
I saw that Xing Daorong had thick eyebrows and big eyes, a strong body and a strong back, and he was holding a mountain-breaking ax in his hand. At first glance, he looked really majestic and brave.
Liu Xian seemed to be afraid that Xia Houlan didn't know Xing Daorong's reputation, so he took the initiative to introduce him to him: "This person is Lingling County General Xing Daorong, who is known as the most powerful general in Jingnan!"
Xing Daorong also raised his mountain-breaking ax in great cooperation and asked, "General Cao, dare to fight me?"
Tieniu saw that Xing Daorong was so arrogant, he was a little angry and wanted to fight.
But Xia Houlan stretched out his hand to stop Tieniu and said softly: "This man is quite powerful, so I'd better go."
Tieniu knew that Xia Houlan would not lie to him, so he stopped insisting and said instead: "General, be careful!"
"Don't worry, he's just a reckless man..." Xia Houlan replied confidently.
After all, after being beaten by so many masters, I still have some eyesight and strength!
Xia Houlan held his spear at an angle and slowly drove his horse forward.
Seeing Xia Houlan's relaxed and carefree look, Xing Daorong felt a little annoyed.
Then Xing Daorong looked down at the majestic white horse under Xia Houlan's seat, and then compared it with his own horse, and couldn't help but feel hot in his heart, "What a good horse! Once he is killed, it will be mine!"
Thinking of this, Xing Daorong could no longer hold back, raised his mountain-cutting ax and charged towards Xiahou Lan, "Rat, suffer death!"
Xia Houlan practices innate skills, and his body functions and face look much younger than his actual age. In addition, he is also handsome, and when he raises his aura, he has a heroic air.
The white horse under his crotch was the best war horse carefully selected by Gongsun Zan at the time. It was not only fat and strong, but also agile in stature.
At this moment, Xia Houlan, armed with an iron gun, mounted his horse to fight without any fear, and faced the enemy head-on.
"Clang!"
As the two riders crossed each other, a sharp and loud metallic sound was made when the gun head collided with the ax head.
The mountain-opening ax and Bin's iron gun collided head-on in mid-air, and what surprised everyone was that Xing Daorong's body, which looked a lot bigger than Xia Houlan's, was knocked back by Xia Houlan's shot.
Let's go!
Xia Houlan, on the other hand, still sat firmly on the horse, as if the blow just now had no impact on him at all.
In just one round, the two sides reached a conclusion!
What kind of enemy, what kind of general, the overlord who dominates a small place, is actually so fragile and vulnerable when he encounters a real master from the outside world!
Xia Houlan felt the strength just now and thought to himself: "This Xing Daorong is not as unbearable as he seems... It's just that he has only a lot of strength but no systematic moves and skills, so most of his strength is wasted.
Already."
In fact, this is because Xing Daorong did not have the guidance of a famous teacher, so he was exploring wild paths on his own. In front of ordinary people or slightly stronger ordinary people, Xing Daorong could suppress them with his strength and experience, but when he met a real martial artist, he could really
It's completely inadequate.
Xia Houlan was a veteran who followed Lu Yan and Zhao Yun all over the country and fought in all directions. At least four to five hundred soldiers and generals died in his hands.
And Xing Daorong, who has spent his whole life hiding in the barren Lingling County and working as a local tyrant behind closed doors, is no match for Xia Houlan. The two men's martial arts and skills are not at the same level at all.
Xia Houlan saw Xing Daorong leaning back and the door in front of his chest was wide open, so he saw the right moment and shot the opponent directly with his intention.
When Xing Daorong's mountain-opening ax was broken by the opponent with skill, he was already shocked. He knew in his heart that the opponent's bravery was probably far beyond his imagination.
From the corner of his eye, he saw Xia Houlan's spear stabbing him, and Xing Daorong's rich fighting experience finally had some effect.
I saw Xing Daorong let go of his axe, fell backwards and rolled off his horse!
Although this roll seemed embarrassing, it just escaped Xia Houlan's deadly spear tip.
After falling off his horse, Xing Daorong did not hesitate at all. He got up using his hands and feet and tried his best to escape towards the Lingling army formation.
Unfortunately, he forgot one thing: how can a man with two legs outrun a horse with four legs?
Xia Houlan gently pinched the horse's belly with his feet, and the horse immediately understood his intention, accelerated and sprinted to catch up with Xing Daorong, who was escaping.
After chasing Xing Daorong, Xia Houlan shot him in the back, but unexpectedly, at the critical moment, Xing Daorong made a lazy donkey roll and avoided it again!
The two attacks failed, and the smile on Xiahoulan's face disappeared.
"This guy looks as strong as a bear, but he runs as slippery as a loach..."
Xia Houlan put away his contempt and raised his gun to attack again.
But this time, Xia Houlan's spear tip became dotted with dots. Obviously, he was getting serious!
Xing Daorong, who had just stood up, looked at the spear tip that looked like "a sky full of stars". He suddenly got excited, knelt on his feet, prostrated himself on the ground and shouted: "I'm convinced! I'm convinced!"
