Chapter 590: The First Battle
If you want to say who is stronger between Xiahoudun and Zhou Tai, it's really hard to judge. The strength of the two is at best between them, after all, although they both belong to the famous generals of the Three Kingdoms, they are not top generals, they can only be regarded as first-class generals, and their strength has their own wins and losses.
Zhou Tai is better at fighting on the water, while Xiahou is better at riding battles, and in terms of horses, Xiahou is indeed stronger than Zhou Tai.
However, at this time, Xiahoudun didn't have such a thing as a horse pedal after all, and he needed to be distracted to control the lower body of the war horse when he was fighting with Zhou Tai on the war horse, so that he could not pay 100% attention to Zhou Tai.
And Zhou Tai is different, with Liu Zheng's specially formulated horses for him, and there is such a thing as a horse pedal for him to use his strength to fight, although he is inexperienced on the war horse, Zhou Tai can use the magical effect of the horse pedal to fight with Xiahou Dun for a five-five open, and the two sides can not immediately see the difference for a while, and divide the winner and loser.
You fought back and forth for twenty or thirty rounds.
Originally, Xiahoudun wanted to quickly resolve the battle, and then raise Cao Cao's military might, but after fighting with the opponent, he found that the opponent seemed to be not as weak as he imagined, but a very difficult character.
After a little separation, Xiahoudun shouted and asked Zhou Tai.
"Who is coming, can you dare to report your name?"
Xiahoudun was hesitant to hesitate about the names of the other generals, after all, in his opinion, the characters who could fight with him were such inextricable and inseparable characters must be several famous generals under Liu Zheng, either Xu Huang or Gan Ning and others.
So he wanted to let the other party report his name so that he could know who the other party was, and at the same time let Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others make a plan to deal with him.
After Zhou Tai heard Xiahoudun's words, he didn't hide his name, reporting his name at such a moment can also make him famous, why wouldn't he do it?
"Zhou Tai, the deputy battalion commander of the Navy Army under the Liu Zheng tent, wait for the dog thieves to die quickly!"
Zhou Tai, who was born as a water thief, naturally did not have the slightest good impression of the officials and soldiers who were officials, and when he faced Xiahoudun, he was determined to die and wanted to fight with Xiahoudun.
After the fight, he saw Xiahoudun's strength, although Zhou Tai understood that this person was not easy to deal with, but he did not have the slightest fear, and tried his best to fight with Xiahoudun, but he was also able to fight with Xiahoudun, which made Zhou Tai more confident to defeat Xiahoudun.
Xiahoudun was a little surprised when he heard that the other party was actually only called Zhou Tai, a name that he had hardly heard Cao Cao and others mention.
Liu Zheng is not well-known under him, and the generals he has never heard of can fight with him without a win. Xiahoudun vaguely felt a hint of crisis.
also felt that something was wrong, as well as Liu Bei, Cao Cao and others who were standing in the distance and watching.
They all thought that most of the generals in front of them were powerful figures like Xu Huang, but after hearing his name, it was a person named Zhou Tai, and they were immediately surprised.
The name Zhou Tai, in fact, Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others have heard of it, after all, they have some information about Liu Zheng and know that Liu Zheng has two naval armies, one of which is in charge of Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai.
It's just that these two water armies have not been brilliant under Liu Zheng, and Liu Zheng rarely takes them out to fight.
As a result, Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others did not know much about the commander of the navy, although they had long heard of Zhou Tai's name, they had never known much about Zhou Tai's strength.
Now after seeing Zhou Tai's power for the first time, Cao Cao and Liu Bei both showed solemn expressions. I can't help but feel that there are so many generals under Liu Zheng who can fight well.
"I really didn't expect Liu Zheng to have such a powerful general, looking at the strength of this person, he can actually tie with Xiahoudun, and the strength wants to divide the victory and defeat between the two and the middle, but I'm afraid it won't be a matter of a while."
"It's a pity, it's a pity, such a fierce general, he actually took refuge in that Liu Zheng, why don't you join the court with the heart of serving the country."
Cao Cao is naturally a cherisher, after seeing Zhou Tai, he couldn't help but let out a sigh, Liu Bei on the side, the same is true, Liu Bei's subordinates, although he is now the pastor of a state, but in addition to his two younger brothers, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, there are no other talents around him who can be seen.
Although Liu Bei accepted some of the staff members who were previously subordinate to Yanzhou Mu Liu Dai after defeating Zhang Miao, such as Wang Yu, Wang Kai and others, these people have mediocre martial arts and average strategy, so they can't enter Liu Bei's eyes.
Now that I see Zhou Tai waiting for characters, I can only regret it.
"Strange, strange."
Just when Liu Bei and Cao Cao were still regretting, Guan Yu, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, frowned and couldn't help but sigh.
"Yun Chang, why did you say that?"
"Big brother, although Zhou Tai's martial arts are good, in my opinion, his actions on the war horse are not as powerful as General Xiahou, and it stands to reason that he should be at a disadvantage, but the fight with General Xiahou can be tied, and there seems to be something greasy in it."
"Greasy? What's greasy? ”
Cao Cao was also attracted by Guan Yu's words, and immediately asked.
Guan Yu stared at Zhou Tai in the distance, his eyes kept scanning, wanting to see through the reason why Zhou Tai was able to draw with Xiahoudun, but the stirrups on Zhou Tai's body were all covered by Liu Zheng's cloth armor with the war horse.
This made Guan Yu know that something was wrong, and he couldn't see through the cattiness for a while.
can only make Guan Yu shake his head.
"I don't know, I don't see where this cat is, but there must be a ghost."
"What should I do?"
"According to the situation of General Xiahou and that Zhou Tai, within fifty moves, the two must be between the two of them, but after fifty moves, General Xiahou's strength will be exhausted, and he will begin to have a disadvantage, I am afraid that he will not be able to last a hundred moves, unless, General Xiahou will fight with his life, use the heart of death, exchange injuries for injuries, and fight with the other party, then there will be a chance to win."
Guan Yu expressed his opinion on this battle, which immediately caused Cao Cao's face to be wrong.
Cao Cao originally expected Xiahoudun to have a big victory first, but now after hearing Guan Yu's words, it seems that Xiahoudun is difficult to win this battle, which makes Cao Cao a little worried.
couldn't help but set his eyes on Xiahoudun's body, worried about whether something would happen to Xiahoudun.
And Xiahou Tang on the battlefield was really as Guan Yu said, in the next battle, he tried his best to attack, and fought with Zhou Tai for fifty or sixty rounds, both of them were relatively open, except for causing some small wounds on the other party's body, there was no key blow that could determine the outcome of the battle.
