Chapter 833

White-faced Liu Bei, black-faced Zhang Fei, red-faced Guan Yu.

Old acquaintances; there is no need for further introductions.

"Damn it, what is there to fear about a Lu Bu? I, Zhang Fei of Yan, can fight him!"

Zhang Fei was the first to rush out, full of spirit, and spoke.

"You have a big mouth. Who are you?"

Yuan Shao stared at the three of them.

Before Liu, Guan, and Zhang could state their identities, Gongsun Zan, who had brought them in, stepped forward to introduce them.

"Gentlemen, this is Liu Bei, a descendant of Prince Jing of Zhongshan, courtesy name Xuande."

"The two heroes beside him are his sworn brothers: the mounted archer Guan Yu, courtesy name Yunchang, and the foot archer Zhang Fei, courtesy name Yide."

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire camp fell silent.

But the next second, almost all the feudal lords showed expressions of contempt.

Because everyone knew that Prince Jing of Zhongshan was a true stud.

The descendants he left behind numbered far more than a hundred.

Adding in distant relatives, there was no telling how many people carried his bloodline.

Some of these Liu clansmen had a status even lower than that of ordinary gentry.

Now that a Liu Xuande had suddenly popped up, claiming to be a descendant of Prince Jing of Zhongshan, the various feudal lords naturally felt disdain.

Liu Bei also saw the obvious contempt on the faces of the lords and felt very unhappy inside, but he did not show it at all on his face, still bowing to the lords with perfect etiquette.

It was only when his gaze fell upon Su Li that he received a bit of courtesy in return.

"Brother Xuande, long time no see!"

After all, they had fought together before; based on this alone, Su Li would not treat Liu Bei with cold eyes like the other lords.

"Brother Su."

Liu Bei hurriedly returned the bow, but looking at Su Li, who had already become a feudal lord in his own right, he felt a complex mix of emotions.

At this moment, Yuan Shao spoke up: "Liu Xuande, Guan Yunchang, Zhang Yide—you three brothers, right? According to Brother Bogui's meaning, can you three brothers fight Lu Bu?"

The most critical issue now was dealing with Lu Bu; Yuan Shao was not about to directly ignore the three of them.

"A mere Lu Bu, why would my eldest and second brothers need to act? Watch me, Zhang Yide, go up and chop off his dog head!"

Before Liu Bei could speak, the hot-tempered Zhang Fei spoke wildly with a face full of confidence.

These lords, except for Su Li, all looked down on the three brothers, and Zhang Fei felt it was necessary to open their eyes.

"Good, since the brave warrior is confident in slaying Lu Bu, then please, warrior, go into battle!"

Yuan Shao nodded immediately.

In any case, none of the other lords intended to send their own great generals against Lu Bu, so letting this Zhang Fei try was fine.

But while Yuan Shao agreed, other lords did not want to, especially Yuan Shu, who had just lost a great general; he immediately stood up to object: "A mere foot archer, and he can go into battle? If this gets out, won't it make our coalition look like we have no one?"

"I ask the Alliance Leader to reconsider."

Lords who were on good terms with Yuan Shu also chimed in.

"This..."

Yuan Shao was in a difficult position.

Because what Yuan Shu said was indeed reasonable; letting a foot archer fight was one thing if he killed Lu Bu, but if he couldn't, it would sound bad if it got out.

Moreover, in their view, Zhang Fei going out was a situation of certain death.

"Damn it, you lot..."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Fei was instantly enraged; had Liu Bei not been quick-witted and held him back, Zhang Fei would likely have started a fight with Yuan Shu and the others right there.

This boorish posture made the lords, who considered themselves cultured, dislike them even more; many cast looks of mockery and contempt at the three of them.

Even Gongsun Zan found it hard to speak for them and stood to the side, feeling somewhat awkward.

Seeing this scene, Su Li shook his head.

Very well, let me be the one to facilitate the historical scene of the three heroes fighting Lu Bu.

With a soft sigh, Su Li walked forward slowly and looked at the various lords: "Gentlemen, please hear me out. Since Brother Yide is willing to fight Lu Bu, this is actually a good thing."

"Otherwise, if we let Lu Bu continue to challenge us outside, our coalition's morale will be completely lost. Or are you all preparing to send out powerful generals to defeat him?"

Once these words were spoken, Yuan Shu and the others fell silent.

After all, since Su Li had put it that way, if they continued to oppose Zhang Fei's participation, they would likely have to send their own people out.

"The Marquis of Gongsun is right."

Seeing no one else speak, Yuan Shao quickly made the decision: "Then let this brave warrior Yide go into battle!"

Seeking self-subscription, seeking evaluation.
