"The troops currently pursuing you and me should be the private troops that He Jin and the Yuan family can mobilize."

"If we annihilate them here, do you think He Jin and Yuan Shao will be heartbroken and shed tears?"

"I have already demonstrated my civil and military prowess to the officials in the court; now, I will put on a martial arts show for them at Mengjin Ferry!"

"Let them know that I, along with your 119 riders, defeated He Jin and Yuan Shao's trusted private troops at Mengjin!"

"At the same time, I also want more people in the capital to know about this bloody battle at Mengjin Ferry."

"And through this battle, you will become famous throughout the world!"

So that's what my lord intended!

One hundred guards, seventeen riders from Yanyun, Liu Wei, and one Jinyiwei!

Exactly one hundred and nineteen people!

Liu Wei, with only a hundred or so guards, defeated two thousand troops from the capital despite being in dire straits.

Such military tactics and bravery will soon spread throughout the area surrounding Luoyang and the Three Rivers and Three Auxiliary Regions!

The highest level of warfare is to subdue the enemy without fighting.

Liu Wei wanted to use a battle where he could defeat a larger force to dampen He Jin's arrogance and enhance his own reputation once again.

When he returns to Luoyang with a million-strong army one day, he will conquer the world without losing a single soldier and with a single proclamation!

Liu Wei's words ignited the passion of Wang Fangyi and Yan Da.

"We obey our lord's words and are willing to fight alongside him at Mengjin!"

The two shouted loudly.

"We are willing to fight alongside our lord in the bloody battle of Mengjin!"

One hundred and sixteen also roared in unison.

The sound was powerful and majestic, reaching all the way to the sky.

Li Ying and the fortress garrison commander, who were not far away, were shocked to hear the roar.

Li Ying and his three hundred soldiers were filled with panic; the soldiers at the Mengjin ferry crossing and the river fort also gripped their bows and crossbows tightly!

Are they preparing to launch an attack?

Just then, a black line appeared in the southwest direction, growing thicker and thicker!

The thunderous sound of horses' hooves echoed, kicking up clouds of dust!

Thousands of cavalrymen galloped in, their imposing presence awe-inspiring.

Wang Fangyi, perched atop the hill, softly reminded Liu Wei:

"My lord, Yuan Shao's pursuers are here!"
