Twenty thousand Bingzhou troops finally arrived at Huaili City.

2 people formed four huge phalanxes.

The sun's rays reflected on their weapons, emitting patches of bright light.

Flags were fluttering among the army, and it looked like a huge ocean.

At Ding Yuan's signal, Ding Yuan's subordinate Zhang Liao rode alone to the gate of Huaili City with a crescent halberd in hand.

"I am working for Zhang Liao in Bingzhou. On the order of the governor of Bingzhou, I would like to ask you to open the city gate and let our army enter Huaili City to help clear out the remnants of Ma Teng."

After Zhang Liao finished speaking, a human head appeared on the top of the city.

"I am the commander of the New Army. Our army is currently wiping out the remnants of Ma Teng, and it has reached the final stage. By the general's orders, Lord Ding will be invited to enter Huaili City after our army has cleaned up Huaili City."

Ding Yuan's face gradually became gloomy.

Zhang Yang also frowned and said: "Wei Chu's move is probably to prevent us from taking the credit of the new army after we enter Huaili City. Based on this, we can judge that Wei Chu is a person with extremely low emotional intelligence. .”

"If Wei Chu is a little smarter and knows a little about how to behave, he should take the initiative to give us half of the credit."

Officialdom has its own hidden rules, and the army has its own hidden rules.

Follow those agreed-upon rules.

The benefits are shared equally, and Wei Chu should give at least one-third of the credit to Ding Yuan.

Ding Yuan took advantage of Wei Chu's concession and became half of Wei Chu's ally.

"Humph!"

Ding Yuan snorted coldly and said, "I'm afraid it's not that Wei Chu has low emotional intelligence, but that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers."

On the top of the city, the voice of Dachang continued to sound, "Brothers from the Bingzhou Army are invited to camp outside the city. We will hold on for seven days. After seven days, our army will definitely open the gate of Huaili City and welcome you all to enter Huaili City."

"By the way, my general has given orders to entertain you all with food tonight. In addition, my general has specially prepared three gifts for Governor Ding."

"Da da da!"

The sound of horse hoofbeats sounded, and Zhang Liao rode back to Ding Yuan's side.

"That's all, I want to see what tricks Wei Chu wants to play. Seven days, I'll wait for him for seven days."

It was impossible for Ding Yuan to really lead his troops to attack Huaili City.

Seven days agreement.

In Ding Yuan's opinion, it was Wei Chu who was compromising.

In this case, Ding Yuan just borrowed the donkey to go down the slope.

Twenty thousand Bingzhou troops set up camp outside Huaili City.

The camp stretched for several miles.

As night fell, there was a group of New Army soldiers in Huaili City, escorting wine, meat and food to the outside of the Bingzhou Army camp.

In addition to the reward materials, Dian Wei also accompanied Jia Xu to the Bingzhou Army camp in person.

"I am the chief official of the New Army. My name is Jia Xu. Tonight, on behalf of General Hussars, I welcome Governor Ding to arrive at Huaili City with his troops."

Ding Yuan sat on the main seat of the big tent, drinking wine while minding his own business.

The attitude seems extremely indifferent.

Jia Xu was not angry when he saw this, and his face was still filled with an honest, honest, and even dull smile.

"The general respects Governor Ding very much and is afraid of neglecting Governor Ding, so he specially entrusted me with a three-cent gift."

After Jia Xu finished speaking, he glanced at Dian Wei.

Dian Wei understood, took two steps forward holding a delicate short knife, and handed it to Zhang Liao's hand.

When Zhang Liao returned to Ding Yuan with the short sword in hand, Jia Xu said with a smile: "This sword is called Zhongyong. It is said that giving this sword to the most loyal subordinates can give them unparalleled courage."

Jia Xu's words made Ding Yuan slightly interested.

He reached out and took the dagger from Zhang Liao's hand.

After looking at it carefully for a moment, he smiled and said, "Not bad."

Among the crowd, Lu Bu's spirit was particularly high.

According to Lu Bu's thinking, he was Ding Yuan's adopted son and had won Ding Yuan's trust. Ding Yuan would definitely reward him with this sword.

With this sword representing loyalty and bravery, Lu Bu's status under Ding Yuan will surely rise.

Holding the knife, Ding Yuan's eyes fell on Lu Bu.

Seeing this, Lu Bu quickly took a deep breath.

But just when Lu Bu began to formulate his speech for receiving the sword, he heard Ding Yuan say from the side: "Zhang Yang, you work hard by my side and work hard without complaining. This sword will be awarded to you. I hope that your reputation for loyalty and bravery will be rewarded. It can be passed down forever.”

Zhang Yang was overjoyed when he heard the sound. He quickly took two steps forward and took the dagger from Ding Yuan's hand.

Beside, Lu Bu's expression suddenly darkened.

Although it didn't take long for Lu Bu to adjust to his condition again.

But the change in Lu Bu's expression did not escape Jia Xu's eyes.

Jia Xu smiled slightly and continued: "The second gift is a war horse. This war horse was originally Beigong Boyu's mount. Because this horse is extremely wild, it was named Land Rover."

As soon as Jia Xu finished speaking, a horse neighed from outside the tent.

This horse neighed like a dragon's roar, and everyone in the big tent couldn't help but light up.

"The Land Rover horse is wild and difficult to tame, so it requires the strongest warrior to control it."

Lu Bu became energetic again.

According to Lu Bu's thoughts.

In Ding Yuan's heart, he may not be as loyal as Zhang Yang, but Ding Yuan and the Bingzhou Army know inside and outside that he is the strongest man under Ding Yuan's command.

This Land Rover horse is definitely one of a kind.

Ding Yuan glanced at Lu Bu again.

Thinking of Lu Bu's proud character, he needs to be polished.

Finally, under Lu Bu's gaze, Ding Yuan turned to look at Zhang Liao.

"Zhang Liao, you are brave enough to control this Land Rover horse, so this horse will be your mount from now on."

Ding Yuan's words were somewhat beyond Zhang Liao's expectations.

Zhang Liao subconsciously turned to look at Lu Bu.

Seeing Lu Bu's gloomy expression, Zhang Liao's heart sank slightly.

"Cough cough!"

Ding Yuan's cough suddenly sounded.

Zhang Liao reacted quickly and hurriedly bent down and clasped his fists towards Ding Yuan.

"Zhang Liao thanks the governor for his kindness."

Jia Xu's little eyes stared at Lu Bu again, and continued: "The third gift is that my general intends to form an alliance with Governor Ding, and plans to give half of the credit for this battle to Governor Ding."

Jia Xu's words made Ding Yuan stand up uncontrollably.

He stared at Jia Xu deeply for several times, then sneered and said, "Wei Chu is really so generous?"

"Although my general has risen to the rank of Hussars General, he only has 8000 men in his hands."

"The new army is stationed in Luoyang. Governor Ding should also know that Luoyang is a very dangerous place."

"My general has a strong sense of urgency. He is thinking about his own future, so he is eager to form an alliance with Governor Ding."

Ding Yuan reached out and touched his beard, then turned to look at Zhang Yang.

When Zhang Yang nodded slightly, Ding Yuan asked Jia Xu: "Half of the military merits of this battle are not small! I wonder how General Wei plans to form an alliance?"

"Marriage!"
