Horse hooves clatter~

"Kill!"

"Kill the government troops!"

The Yellow Turban rebels, filled with fervor and the joy of retaliating against the government troops, swung their large blades wildly, reveling in the slaughter.

Cao Cao was able to withstand the tenfold enemy's encirclement, largely due to his troops being the Emperor's Imperial Guards, equipped with a full set of astonishingly protective gear. Otherwise, they would have been annihilated long ago.

At this moment, Cao Cao felt extremely frustrated. Initially, the battle was very favorable to him. He led his Imperial Guards on a charge from the west end of the village all the way to the east end. The Yellow Turban rebels were thrown into chaos, blood flowed like a river, and they scattered in all directions.

Unexpectedly, these Yellow Turban rebels used the houses for cover and frequently counterattacked.

It was obvious that the cavalry's combat effectiveness plummeted once they entered the courtyards. As a result, the situation reversed, and they lost their spatial advantage, being surrounded by a large number of enemies at the village entrance, unable to advance or retreat.

*Pfft*~ Cao Cao swung the Sword of Heaven, beheading an enemy as a gush of blood shot up. He raised his arm and shouted, "Soldiers of the Imperial Guards, the opportunity to serve the country has arrived! Show your courage, and today we fight to the death!"

However, the morale of Cao Cao's men was very low. These royal guards were all from wealthy families. They were accustomed to a life of luxury. Although they had some skills, they lacked the courage to fight to the death.

On the other hand, Qin Feng, standing behind the hill, frowned as he watched Cao Cao command the battle with great bravery. In his view, Cao Cao would not be limited to just this level of ability. "Perhaps it's because this is his first battle...," Qin Feng calculated the time. This should be Cao Cao's first battle in his life. Facing a tenfold enemy, he was doing reasonably well.

"Brother Qin, what should we do?" Xu Chu asked anxiously, sweat covering his head.

At this moment, the screams of women and children from the village gradually made the fifty-odd villagers forget their fear. For their families, courage began to well up in their hearts.

Liu Bei looked at Qin Feng. He felt embarrassed to run away, thinking, "I'll wait for Qin Zijin to run away, and then I'll follow."

Qin Feng was at a loss.

Just as everyone was feeling disheartened, Liu Bei's eyes showed a hint of sarcasm, and Xu Chu was about to charge in alone... Qin Feng suddenly had an idea.

This idea came from a historical anecdote, one involving Sun Jian. Although Sun Jian was the father of the Little Overlord, he did not invent video games but became famous at a young age for other reasons.

When Sun Jian was seventeen, he saw a large group of pirates dividing their loot on the shore. He slapped his chest and said he could capture them alone, but his father didn't believe him and didn't let him go.

Unexpectedly, Sun Jian took a knife and ran towards the shore. As he ran, he made gestures as if he were commanding a large force to surround and capture the pirates. The pirates, terrified, thought a large government force had arrived. They stopped dividing their loot, abandoned their goods, and fled.

Sun Jian thus gained a great reputation!

"Like this... Zhongkang, do you see that armored Yellow Turban at the left side of the village entrance? That's the leader. If Zhongkang suddenly appears and kills him, do you have the confidence?" Qin Feng asked, his eyebrows arching.

Xu Chu puffed out his chest like a toad, full of confidence, and said, "Killing him is like killing a chicken. Watch me!"

Qin Feng believed him and added, "The others don't need to show themselves. Find branches with leaves and run through the woods on both sides of the village entrance to stir up dust. Also, shout loudly."

"What should we shout?" a villager asked, somewhat dazed.

Qin Feng thought for a moment and had an idea. He smiled and said, "On the left, shout, 'General Lu Zhi orders, no mercy.' On the right, shout, 'General Huangfu Song orders, leave no one alive!'"

"Who are these two people?" Xu Chu and the others were confused. "Will shouting names help?"

Liu Bei suddenly looked superior and said, "You civilians don't know, but these two are the generals leading the campaign against the Yellow Turbans, fierce warriors who can strike fear into the hearts of the Yellow Turbans!" Liu Bei wrinkled his nose and thought, "This Qin Zijin is quite cunning. This is a feint. However, whether it will succeed depends on whether Xu Chu can kill the Yellow Turban leader protected by over a hundred men!"

Qin Feng concluded, "Xuande and I will charge out from here!"

"Ah!" Liu Bei was stunned. He looked at the village entrance, where there were at least three to four hundred Yellow Turbans, each wielding weapons and shouting. He thought, "Qin Zijin, are you crazy? Just the two of us, charging out is suicide, right?"

Liu Bei hurriedly said, "Brother Zijin, Xu Yishi is enough. We should wait and see."

Xu Chu and the villagers exchanged glances, and Liu Bei smiled awkwardly, spreading his hands, "I have no weapon..."

"I do!" Xu Chu pulled out two knives from his waist, one a broadsword and the other a butcher's knife. He looked at them and handed the broadsword to Qin Feng, and the butcher's knife to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei was immediately stunned. He looked at the butcher's knife in his hand, which was only as long as a palm, and thought, "No way, can this knife even kill someone? I'll probably be impaled by a spear before I get close."

Seeing Liu Bei's expression, Xu Chu said angrily, "I used this knife to kill a tiger, and it's even better than a broadsword!"

A drop of sweat ran down Liu Bei's forehead. He suddenly realized that Xu Chu wasn't a good person either and couldn't help but curse, "Since it's better than a broadsword, why didn't you give it to Brother Qin! Damn, no one who gets along with Qin Zijin is a good person!" He naturally used the new term he had learned from Qin Feng and understood a truth he had only grasped many years later in his previous life.

Qin Feng didn't bother with Liu Bei and hurriedly said, "Zhongkang, now that you've given us your weapons, what will you do?"

Xu Chu struck a pose, his muscles bulging, and raised his fist, which was as big as a pot. The veins on his knuckles looked like centipedes, and he said in a deep voice, "I'll use this fist to kill that leader!"

Everyone, including Qin Feng and Liu Bei, was infected by Xu Chu's spirit, and their own spirits soared.

Qin Feng felt invigorated and thought, "No wonder he's my Dragon Guard general." However, to be safe, he still returned the broadsword, saying earnestly, "Zhongkang, you need it more than I do. Keep it!"

Xu Chu initially refused, but when Qin Feng forced it into his hand, he felt warm inside and said, "Brother Qin, watch me kill that leader!"

Thus, Xu Chu took the knife and led twenty people to quietly approach the left side of the village.

Qin Feng immediately instructed the remaining twenty people to find branches and prepare. When he finished and turned to find Liu Bei, he saw a butcher's knife in front of him.

Liu Bei held the butcher's knife with both hands, his eyes filled with reverence, and said solemnly, "Brother, take the knife. I'll cheer you on and watch you achieve great success!"

Qin Feng's face twitched as he looked at Liu Bei coldly. Liu Bei felt the danger in his fierce gaze and wished he could slap himself. He thought, "Why did you follow Qin Zijin with such侥幸 (侥幸 means '侥幸' in Chinese, which can be translated as '侥幸' in English, but in this context, it means '侥幸' or '侥幸'). You're not even close to him, so what '侥幸' is there?"

However, a true hero is a true hero. Liu Bei was not afraid of death but would not fight a battle without a sure win if there was a way out. At this moment, Liu Bei suddenly had a premonition that if he didn't act now, his reputation would be ruined, and he would have no future opportunities.

Therefore, Liu Bei's spirit changed. The butcher's knife spun in his palm, and he grabbed it firmly, saying with great righteousness, "Zijin, today, under the setting sun, I will stand with you, whether we advance or retreat!"

Qin Feng felt that Liu Bei's righteousness was genuine this time, and his courage shone through his eyes.

Thus, the two future warlords, who would later become famous throughout the land, began their first battle.
