Chapter 75 Wen Chou: If you cannot kill Hua Xiong, please chop off my head!
Faced with the current situation that Dong Zhuo is facing, how should he break the impasse?
Hua Xiong was the only one left in the big tent.
He was wearing armor, sitting on the bed, lost in thought.
Yu Jin’s question is worth pondering.
Yu Jin just asked that question at the time. He didn't know that his lord, who was just a general under Dong Zhuo, actually had the ambition to conquer the world and rebuild it.
However, this unintentional remark woke Hua Xiong up.
If we really talk about background, Hua Xiong's background is lower than Dong Zhuo's.
The scholars are still unwilling to cooperate with Dong Zhuo today, and even if they do, most of them have ulterior motives.
The situation that Dong Zhuo is facing today will also be faced by himself in the future as long as he continues to move forward.
So, when that time really comes, what should I do?
Before, Hua Xiong felt that the most important thing was how to gain a firm foothold and accumulate reputation and strength.
Now, after hearing Yu Jin's unintentional question, he realized that this was not the case.
How to deal with the relationship with the scholar class is the top priority.
If he cannot think of a proper way to break the situation of the scholar class, then even if he has great power, he will be like Dong Zhuo, who is also restricted by the scholar class and cannot do whatever he wants.
The path taken by military generals such as Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun was to try hard to squeeze into the scholar class, and rely on currying favor with the scholar class for one or several generations, and finally be accepted by the scholar class.
This path is not advisable, it takes too long and is too cowardly.
Huangfu Song and others could endure such humiliation, but Hua Xiong could not.
Moreover, now that he had killed Wu Qiong, he had completely eliminated this possibility...
This matter needs to be sorted out, and there needs to be a safe way to break the impasse.
Otherwise, when the time comes, he will really encounter the situation that Dong Zhuo is facing now.
This situation cannot be broken by simply killing people.
If it were really that simple, Dong Zhuo would have broken through long ago.
Fists can solve many problems, but not all problems can be solved by fists...
Hua Xiong sat here, thinking for a very long time, until he fell asleep when it was almost dawn.
I already have some ideas in mind...
In the camps of the princes of the Guandong coalition, most people slept uneasily.
Everyone was traumatized by Hua Xiong's repeated attacks on the camp.
When I came here, there were eighteen princes, but now there are only sixteen. Just thinking about it makes me feel a little scared...
As the sky gradually brightened, a group of soldiers arrived at Yuan Shao's camp.
There were not many soldiers and horses, less than a thousand.
Compared with the large number of troops gathered by these princes, the number of troops that came was really not enough.
However, the arrival of these troops made Yuan Shao overjoyed, and his whole spirit and energy became different.
Because, among this team of soldiers, there are two extraordinary characters.
Among them was a man wearing an embroidered robe and golden armor, with rosy cheeks, a beard under his chin, a straight nose and a wide mouth, a broad back and strong arms, and holding a big knife in his hand.
This person was none other than Yan Liang, the famous general from Hebei.
There was another person, eight feet tall, with a knife on one side of his waist and a pot of feather arrows on the other. He sat on a warhorse with a powerful bow hanging on his back.
He held an iron spear in his hand.
This man was also a famous general from Hebei, his name was Wen Chou, and he was good friends with Yan Liang.
…
"The Hua Xiong bandits are so arrogant today, they have killed generals and seized flags one after another, and no one can stop them.
Now that the two generals are here, I have nothing to worry about!"
Yuan Shao held Yan Liang in one hand and Wen Chou in the other, and spoke with joy and sincerity.
He was telling the truth. In recent times, he had been overwhelmed by Hua Xiong's continuous attacks, and he felt like he was suffocating.
I couldn't sleep well at night, even though the troops were on high alert.
They were afraid that Hua Xiong would suddenly lead his troops to attack the camp at night while they were sleeping there.
Cut off his head and send it to Dong Zhuo.
Now, the two generals he had been looking forward to for a long time came together, which made him feel instantly relieved and felt that he had a backer.
Yuan Shao had been cultivating his reputation for many years and had also taken the lead in punishing the eunuchs. He had a great reputation and was known as a role model for the world.
He is also a member of the Yuan family, which has been a family of three dukes for four generations. Now he is the leader of the coalition forces and is in the limelight.
Yan Liang and Wen Chou felt their hearts filled with many things when Yuan Shao held their hands and spoke to them with such sincerity.
After a long journey, some of the fatigue in the body completely disappeared.
"Don't worry, my lord. Hua Xiong is just a nobody. He is not worth mentioning!
My two brothers were not here to make him famous.
The arrival of the two of us will mark the day of his death.
I am a humble subordinate, so I will go to Sishui Pass to challenge him, chop off Hua Xiong's head, and present it to you, my lord!"
Yan Liang directly asked Yuan Shao for orders to go to Sishui Pass to kill Hua Xiong.
At this time, only half a quarter of an hour had passed since he arrived at Yuan Shao's place.
Wen Chou, who was standing next to him, heard Yan Liang's request for orders and hurriedly challenged Yuan Shao to fight.
"My lord, Hua Xiong is not a man to be feared. Since we two are not here, he has become famous.
I would like to challenge you and kill Hua Xiong!
If you can’t, please chop off my head!”
Wen Chou directly issued a military order.
The reason why Wen Chou issued the military order was, on the one hand, that he was stimulated by Yuan Shao's actions.
On the other hand, he also wanted to compete with Yan Liang for credit and wanted to take the task of fighting Hua Xiong into his own hands.
After all, at this time, Hua Xiong had already made a great reputation.
If I could kill it in one battle right now, I would surely become famous throughout the world with this one battle!
This is the best stepping stone!
If he didn't take over this task at this time and let Yan Liang kill Hua Xiong, wouldn't he have missed a great opportunity?
It's enough to make one regret and beat their chests!
When Yan Liang heard Wen Chou issue a military order, he knew that Wen Chou wanted to compete with him.
Although the two of them have a good personal relationship on weekdays, they naturally cannot give up the great opportunity to become famous right in front of them.
He immediately bowed to Yuan Shao and said, "I am also willing to sign a military order. If you cannot kill Hua Xiong, please chop off my head!"
