程普、黄盖、韩当都来寻见孙坚，再收拾军马屯扎。坚为折了祖茂，伤感不已，星夜遣人报知袁绍。绍大惊曰：“不想孙文台败于华雄之手！”便聚众诸侯商议。众人都到，只有公孙瓒后至，绍请入帐列坐。绍曰：“前日鲍将军之弟不遵调遣，擅自进兵，杀身丧命，折了许多军士；今者孙文台又败于华雄：挫动锐气，为之奈何？”诸侯并皆不语。绍举目遍视，见公孙瓒背后立着三人，容貌异常，都在那里冷笑。绍问曰：“公孙太守背后何人？”瓒呼玄德出曰：“此吾自幼同舍兄弟，平原令刘备是也。”曹操曰：“莫非破黄巾刘玄德乎？”瓒曰：“然。”即令刘玄德拜见。瓒将玄德功劳，并其出身，细说一遍。绍曰：“既是汉室宗派，取坐来。”命坐。备逊谢。绍曰：“吾非敬汝名爵，吾敬汝是帝室之胄耳。”玄德乃坐于末位，关、张叉手侍立于后。忽探子来报：“华雄引铁骑下关，用长竿挑着孙太守赤帻，来寨前大骂搦战。”绍曰：“谁敢去战？”袁术背后转出骁将俞涉曰：“小将愿往。”绍喜，便著俞涉出马。即时报来：“俞涉与华雄战不三合，被华雄斩了。”众大惊。太守韩馥曰：“吾有上将潘凤，可斩华雄。”绍急令出战。潘凤手提大斧上马。去不多时，飞马来报：“潘凤又被华雄斩了。”众皆失色。绍曰：“可惜吾上将颜良、文丑未至！得一人在此，何惧华雄！”言未毕，阶下一人大呼出曰：“小将愿往斩华雄头，献于帐下！”众视之，见其人身长九尺，髯长二尺，丹凤眼，卧蚕眉，面如重枣，声如巨钟，立于帐前。绍问何人。公孙瓒曰：“此刘玄德之弟关羽也。”绍问现居何职。瓒曰：“跟随刘玄德充马弓手。”帐上袁术大喝曰：“汝欺吾众诸侯无大将耶？量一弓手，安敢乱言！与我打出！”曹操急止之曰：“公路息怒。此人既出大言，必有勇略；试教出马，如其不胜，责之未迟。”袁绍曰：“使一弓手出战，必被华雄所笑。”操曰：“此人仪表不俗，华雄安知他是弓手？”关公曰：“如不胜，请斩某头。”操教酾热酒一杯，与关公饮了上马。关公曰：“酒且斟下，某去便来。”出帐提刀，飞身上马。众诸侯听得关外鼓声大振，喊声大举，如天摧地塌，岳撼山崩，众皆失惊。正欲探听，鸾铃响处，马到中军，云长提华雄之头，掷于地上。其酒尚温。后人有诗赞之曰：“威镇乾坤第一功，辕门画鼓响冬冬。云长停盏施英勇，酒尚温时斩华雄。”曹操大喜。只见玄德背后转出张飞，高声大叫：“俺哥哥斩了华雄，不就这里杀入关去，活拿董卓，更待何时！”袁术大怒，喝曰：“俺大臣尚自谦让，量一县令手下小卒，安敢在此耀武扬威！都与赶出帐去！”曹操曰：“得功者赏，何计贵贱乎？”袁术曰：“既然公等只重一县令，我当告退。”操曰：“岂可因一言而误大事耶？”命公孙瓒且带玄德、关、张回寨。众官皆散。曹操暗使人赍牛酒抚慰三人。却说华雄手下败军，报上关来。李肃慌忙写告急文书，申闻董卓。卓急聚李儒、吕布等商议。儒曰：“今失了上将华雄，贼势浩大。袁绍为盟主，绍叔袁隗，现为太傅；倘或里应外合，深为不便，可先除之。请丞相亲领大军，分拨剿捕。”卓然其说，唤李催、郭汜领兵五百，围住太傅袁隗家，不分老幼，尽皆诛绝，先将袁隗首级去关前号令。
卓遂起兵二十万，分为两路而来：一路先令李傕、郭汜引兵五万，把住汜水关，不要厮杀；卓自将十五万，同李儒、吕布、樊稠、张济等守虎牢关。这关离洛阳五十里。军马到关，卓令吕布领三万军，去关前扎住大寨。卓自在关上屯住。
流星马探听得，报入袁绍大寨里来。绍聚众商议。操曰：“董卓屯兵虎牢，截俺诸侯中路，今可勒兵一半迎敌。”绍乃分王匡、乔瑁、鲍信、袁遗、孙融、张杨、陶谦、公孙瓒八路诸侯，往虎牢关迎敌。操引军往来救应。八路诸侯，各自起兵。河内太守王匡，引兵先到。吕布带铁骑三千，飞奔来迎。王匡将军马列成阵势，勒马门旗下看时，见吕布出阵：头戴三叉束发紫金冠，体挂西川红锦百花袍，身披兽面吞头连环铠，腰系勒甲玲珑狮蛮带；弓箭随身，手持画戟，坐下嘶风赤兔马：果然是“人中吕布，马中赤兔”！王匡回头问曰：“谁敢出战？”后面一将，纵马挺枪而出。匡视之，乃河内名将方悦。两马相交，无五合，被吕布一戟刺于马下，挺戟直冲过来。匡军大败，四散奔走。布东西冲杀，如入无人之境。幸得乔瑁、袁遗两军皆至，来救王匡，吕布方退。三路诸侯，各折了些人马，退三十里下寨。随后五路军马都至，一处商议，言吕布英雄，无人可敌。
正虑间，小校报来：“吕布搦战。”八路诸侯，一齐上马。军分八�
