When Cao Ning returned to Dingjun Mountain, the village was in a happy mood. Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and others were having a dinner with a group of generals.
On the table are all the inventory that Zhao Hai and the others brought in from the Earth Realm. Now the fools have mingled with everyone. Looking at them shouting and looking proud, if they were in the Earth Realm, they would have taken out their mobile phones to take pictures.
Nostalgic.
After all, the people in front of them were all famous figures in history.
"Brother Ning, you are back!"
"Lord!"
"The defeated general thanks Duke Cao for not killing him!"
Seeing Cao Ning's return, everyone gathered in the hall rushed out to greet him. Those generals who had been taken in by Cao Ning were even more excited and knelt down on the spot.
"Everyone, please get up quickly!"
Cao Ning was confused, but he still followed the example of the big brothers on TV and helped these people up first.
Looking around at the generals in front of him, there were more than a dozen of them, most of whom Cao Ning had never seen before.
But among them, there is an old man with a white beard who is the most eye-catching. Although he is wearing a golden armor, he is full of energy.
Cao Ning looked at him curiously: "Could this be Old General Huang?"
"Exactly!"
Zhang Fei next to him said, "Brother Ning, General Huang was forced to stay in Liu Biao's army before. During the war, he heard that Zhao Yun and I were both at Dingjun Mountain, so when the coalition army was defeated, he quietly took his men with him.
A thousand men and horses have come to join us."
"In addition, there are Jiang Wei, Wei Yan, Guan Xing, Zhang Bao... old brothers and juniors from the past, all come together this time."
After listening to Zhang Fei's explanation, Cao Ning realized that most of these people were generals who were originally in the Big Er Liu camp.
In fact, it's no wonder. He has Kong Ming, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun here. Of course, all the military officers and civil servants who have had friendship with him in the past gathered here.
Cao Ning was immediately overjoyed when he learned that the old man in front of him was Huang Zhong.
He now has three of the former Five Tiger Generals. If he can get Guan Yu and Ma Chao again, then at least the scene will be much better.
Cao Ning took General Huang's hand and said excitedly: "I have been familiar with General Huang's allusion about being strong and strong since I was a child. With the support of the old general and you all today, I believe we will achieve great achievements in the future."
Huang Zhong waved his hands and said humbly: "Mr. Cao, I'm sorry. I, Huang Zhong, am just a bad old man. How can I be worthy of your flattery... I don't dare to do it, I don't dare to do it."
"Hey, why is Han Sheng still called Cao Gong? It's time to change his name now." Someone else reminded him.
"Oh, yes, yes!"
Huang Zhong finally came to his senses and quickly changed his words: "Now you should call me lord. If lord doesn't mind, I am willing to lead your lord's horse and ride on it without any hesitation."
After saying that, Huang Zhong wanted to kneel down again, but Cao Ning pulled him up in time.
"Hey, hey, you can't do it, you can't do it, old man, you don't want to kneel down here. We are all our own people, so there is no need to be so open to outsiders."
While chatting with everyone, Cao Ning also said a lot of words of encouragement, which immediately moved the generals to tears, and they all swore allegiance to Cao Ning.
"Why is it so lively?"
At this time Kong Ming and Chen Gong also came.
The two of them had been busy collecting data before. When they heard that Cao Ning was back, they rushed over immediately.
"Oh, the two gentlemen are here too!"
When Cao Ning saw the person coming to clean up his mess, he immediately greeted him with a smile and said a few words of encouragement.
Otherwise, it won’t be that easy next time if you just want to give up your choice and leave.
"My lord, you're welcome. Fortunately, Liang and Gongtai have lived up to their orders and have already tallied up all the results of this battle."
Seeing so many people here, Kong Ming naturally couldn't be as casual as before. First of all, he consciously changed his name.
While talking, Kong Ming handed over an account book, but Cao Ning did not accept it.
"Hey, I can rest assured that these two gentlemen will do their job. Since everyone is here now, let's ask Kong Ming to report the results of this battle to everyone in public." Cao Ning said with a smile.
"Uh...haha, then Liang would rather be respectful than obey your orders!"
Kong Ming smiled and nodded!
He knew that this was done intentionally by Cao Ning. The purpose was to reassure the people he had just attached to today and avoid causing a fire in the backyard in the future.
With that said, Kong Ming opened the account book and began to introduce the before and after of this war.
"This time against the coalition of princes, our army mobilized a total of 34,000 people."
"This included 30,000 Xuanjia troops and 4,000 horse and infantry troops... Of course, the Xuanjia troops only participated in the final encirclement and suppression of Dong Zhuo and did not all participate in the battle."
Regarding the Xuanjia Army, except for Cheng Yaojin and others who had been following Cao Ning, the other newly joined generals had never even heard of it, and they did not even know about the existence of this army.
Just when everyone was confused, the results announced by Kong Ming completely subverted everyone's three views.
"In this battle, the horse and infantry troops killed a total of 1,900 people, captured 53,000 enemy troops, and beheaded more than 40,000 people. The Xuanjia Army had zero casualties, captured 6,000 heavy cavalry, and 10,000 light cavalry, and
We captured Jade City and beheaded more than 10,000 people in total."
"What, zero casualties?"
Everyone present was shocked when they heard that the Xuanjia Army captured all of Dong Zhuo's cavalry with zero casualties and took away their old nest, Yudu.
As we all know, the performance of the cavalry infantry in this battle was based on the results of the black flagship crushing the coalition forces and killing the enemy with mortars. In terms of actual data, a one-for-two record is considered good.
Among the 120,000 coalition troops, the most powerful was Dong Zhuo's cavalry force of more than 10,000 people.
However, the Xuanjia Army actually captured them all with zero damage, which in itself is a very remarkable achievement.
"Brother, what is the origin of this Xuanjia Army? Why haven't you heard of it before?"
"I said, Old Wei, you have forgotten so quickly. Didn't we just discuss who the murderous cavalry in front of the village are? Now it seems that they are most likely the Xuanjia Army."
"It makes sense. I think those cavalry are probably as strong as the Pluto Guards, or even stronger."
"I'm afraid, my God. Fortunately, I made a wise decision today. If I really follow him and fight to the death, I don't know how he will die."
"..."
Although everyone was talking in low voices, Cao Ning could see fear from the surprised expressions on their faces.
He was very satisfied with this effect!
As the leading brother, you not only need to make your subordinates have enough confidence in you, but also make them fearful. Only in this way can a team be able to command overwhelming numbers and be invincible.
But when he next reported the extent of weapon damage, Kong Ming frowned.
He looked at Chen Gong beside him in confusion and whispered: "Old Chen, what's going on? Why is there a mortar missing?"
Chen Gong shook his head: "When I counted the supplies, there was indeed one item missing."
"Which position is the missing door on?"
"It was on the high ground on the right side of Humen Pass. The soldiers in charge searched seven or eight places on the mountain road, but they couldn't find it."
"Is it really strange that there is such a thing?"
Kong Mingyang was about to report to Cao Ning, but the latter stopped him.
Cao Ning also heard what happened. Not only him, but Zhao Yun who was also present also guessed something.
They simultaneously focused their attention on the little body in the corner with its little head exposed and its twin tails swaying.
The others didn't know what was going on. When they saw Cao Ning staring at the corner, they all looked over curiously.
Zhao Xiaotuan, who was busy chewing the pig's trotters at the moment, did not realize that everyone's eyes were focused on her. He still lowered his head and ate the fragrant pig's trotters.
