Chapter 137. Battle of Fancheng (Part 131)
"Who are you? Tell me your name!"
Bao Feng, who was in a bad mood, rode out on his horse, rushed towards the young general of the Wei army and asked loudly for his name.
"I am Wenqin! I came here to kill you!"
"Ok?"
Hearing the young general's answer, Bao Feng didn't react, he had never heard of this name. But Feng Xi raised his eyebrows.
Wen Qin, if I remember correctly, is the father of Wen Yuan, a future powerful general in the late Three Kingdoms period. However, judging from Wen Qin's age, it will take another ten years for Wen Yuan to be born.
Wen Qin was not clean at that time. In 219 AD, two years ago, Wei Feng, a deputy of the Western Division of the Prime Minister, and Chen Wei, the Weiwei of Changle, conspired to rebel. Later, Chen Wei was afraid and did not dare to rebel. He informed the then crown prince, now Emperor Wen of Wei, Cao Pi, and Wei Feng and his people were all imprisoned.
Wen Qin was also thrown into death row because of his words that were connected to Wei Feng's, and was soon executed for treason. Fortunately, Cao Cao heard about this and pardoned him, which also led to Wen Qin keeping a low profile in the past two years. Now he hopes to make some great achievements to wash away his bad reputation.
"You black man, come and get your death!"
Although Wen Qin was lucky enough to survive the disaster, it was difficult for him to change his character. Wen Qin was a rude and rude person, and he was proud of his martial arts.
If it was the late period of the Three Kingdoms, when famous generals had died out, Wen Qin might have really punched the Nanshan Nursing Home and kicked the Beihai Kindergarten. However, Bao Feng opposite him was not an easy opponent either.
"Den!"
When the broadsword and the iron hammer collided heavily, Wen Qin felt that something was wrong. He had no ability to match the brute force of this black man.
But Wen Qin was a first-rate general after all, so he pulled himself together and tried to use some skills to deal with Bao Feng.
Feng Xi watched carefully from the sidelines and knew that it would be no problem for Bao Feng to take down Wen Qin, but there was no point in just beating Wen Qin away.
Feng Xi's eyes rolled, and he picked up the loudspeaker and shouted loudly:
"Bao Feng, don't beat him to death! Give Wei Zijing some face!"
Bao Feng was confused. It would be very difficult for him to kill Wen Qin. He couldn't just kill him whenever he wanted. And who was Wei Zijing? How could he know such a person?
Bao Feng pretended not to hear it. After all, he knew that Feng Xi was cunning and cunning. Perhaps this was just another result of his sudden inspiration. So he continued to fight hard with Wen Qin.
But Wen Qin was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
Wei Feng, whose courtesy name was Zijing.
"Don't talk nonsense! I have nothing to do with Wei Zijing! How could you possibly know Wei Zijing?"
Wen Qin shouted loudly, trying to explain himself.
After all, Wen Qin had just been imprisoned two years ago because of Wei Feng’s affairs. Now he suddenly heard Wei Feng’s name again and was so scared that he quickly distanced himself from him.
"Yes, yes, yes, how could you be related to Wei Zijing? After all, they are only connected by words, it must be an accident! Now that Cao the thief has rescued you, you must cherish your life!"
Feng Xi added two more sentences, and now Cao Ren was a little confused.
Wei Feng's rebellion was a big deal, but it was not that well-known, at least not as sensational as the Yidaizhao back then.
Because Wei Feng was betrayed before he even started his army, the people who knew about it were basically the people in Yecheng and some high-ranking officials of Cao Wei. It was impossible for ordinary people to know so much. And as a Han general, how could Feng Xi know so many details? This made Cao Ren think about it. In addition, Feng Xi's second sentence was an excuse. Was this connection really an accident?
However, this was a critical moment, and Cao Ren suppressed all these doubts in his heart, with no expression on his face.
Wen Qin was extremely panicked. He was good at military tactics and battle formations, so his emotional intelligence was not high enough when it came to these officialdom incidents. After listening to Feng Xi's nonsense, he was worried that his comrades would become suspicious of him, so he could only keep explaining.
But unfortunately, this explanation not only made him seem more suspicious, but also caused his mentality to fluctuate, and his skills were inevitably affected.
"Clang! Snap!"
Bao Feng took advantage of Wen Qin's distraction and smashed an iron hammer at him. Wen Qin panicked and hurriedly raised his sword to block, but the sword handle was broken into two pieces by Bao Feng's huge force. The iron hammer continued to move forward and hit Wen Qin's left shoulder directly, almost knocking him off his horse.
"Clang clang clang!"
Several generals from Cao Wei came out together to rescue Wen Qin. Seeing this, Feng Xi immediately sounded the horn to ask Bao Feng to come back.
"For Duke Wei's sake, I will not kill you today! I hope you will take care of yourself!"
A bright light suddenly flashed through Bao Feng's mind, and he said this to Wen Qin before riding away.
Wen Qin's face was filled with pain, and his eyes flashed with three parts of doubt, three parts of fear, and four parts of disbelief. He didn't know whether the other party really knew Wei Feng or was just pretending. But unfortunately, this sentence was heard by the people who came to pick up Wen Qin.
Wen Qin was successfully rescued and brought back to the Wei army. Cao Ren asked the military doctor to treat him as soon as possible. However, Cao Ren's eyes were gloomy, and no one could tell what he was thinking.
"Haha, old man Cao Ren, what do you want to do next? A duel of generals or a direct fight? I'm ready to play with you anytime. But I suggest you just start the fight. With all the misfits you Cao Wei have now, you're really not good enough."
Feng Xi smiled and started talking to Cao Ren through his loud speaker.
"General, let me go! Let me destroy the Shu army's prestige!"
Hearing Feng Xi's ridicule, many of Cao Wei's young generals became anxious and asked Cao Ren for a fight, hoping to go into battle personally to beat Feng Xi up.
Cao Ren waved his hands, looking calm, not disturbed by Feng Xi's words. Cao Ren had fought against countless famous generals in his life, and although he was not accustomed to many conspiracies and intrigues, he could also detect some clues.
He always felt that Feng Xi was being a little deliberate, as if he was trying to delay him, to deliberately anger him, so that he would continue to fight with him?
Although Cao Ren didn't know what Feng Xi was up to, he was bound to do what the other party didn't want to see.
"Pass my order to mobilize 50,000 troops to attack the Shu army's main camp. I want to see what the Shu army is afraid of."
Cao Ren ignored Feng Xi and directly dispatched the army. He did not intend to continue the battle, but wanted to fight Feng Xi with real swords and guns.
"Return to the camp! Don't forget to put those things down!"
Seeing that old man Cao Ren had no martial ethics and wanted to start a fight directly, Feng Xi sneered and immediately retreated to the camp with his several thousand men. However, the Han soldiers were throwing something frantically on the road as they left, and the ground was covered with black unidentified objects.
However, with the dust left by the Han army, these things quickly sank into the soil, and it was difficult to find any trace of them from the outside.
Immediately afterwards, Cao Wei's elite soldiers followed the Han army's pace and rushed towards Feng Xi's camp like a huge black wave.
