"Zhao Yun! Don't push your luck!" Yan Liang warned with a cold face.
Zhao Yun knew that her request was too much, but she still bowed to Yuan Xi in the end to express her pleading heart.
Yuan Xi was silent. It was not a problem for him to take away Zhao Yun from the surrendered generals, but to say that he would let everyone go was a fool's dream.
If he really did that, Yuan Shao would be the first one to not let him off. He would definitely scold Yuan Xi and hand over the military power that he had just obtained in the blink of an eye.
"General Yan Liang, is it possible to bring all these surrendered generals into my camp?”
In the end, Yuan Xi made up his mind. This was his only chance to subdue Zhao Yun. If he gave up today, Zhao Yun might run off to find Liu Bei that day.
"Young Master, this..."
Yan Liang understood Yuan Xi's meaning. He was planning to give up the 2000 elite soldiers he had prepared for Yuan Xi and then bring all these surrendered generals under his command.
"General Yan Liang, the great war is imminent. It is still a little too much to use a silkpants like me with two thousand elite soldiers as guards.
It just so happens that there are enough of these surrendered generals, so why don't they join my guard camp?
Otherwise, these two thousand people would be useless and waste food every day.”Yuan Xi began to persuade Yan Liang.
"This…" Yan Liang was also tempted.
It would be a lie to say that he didn't feel heartache for transferring two thousand elite soldiers to Yuan Xi as guards. Moreover, these soldiers wanted to go into battle to kill the enemy more than to be Yuan Xi's guards.
Everyone would have selfish motives. Seeing that what Yuan Xi said made some sense, Yan Liang could not help being moved too.
"But these are all surrendered generals. If they have ill intentions, young master's safety..."
Although he said that, Yuan Xi knew that Yan Liang had already wavered. As long as this problem could be solved, Yan Liang would definitely agree.
"Haha." Yuan Xi smiled confidently." It's simple. Bring their families to Ye City and live a good life. They will naturally be grateful to me.
It didn't matter even if there were ingrates. If they failed to protect them, the families of these surrendered generals would all be killed!”
"General Zilong, do you think my methods are disgraceful?”Yuan Xi asked with a smile.
"A guilty general wouldn't dare. It's human nature, and Zilong wouldn't dare to guarantee the loyalty of these people.”Zhao Yun completely understood Yuan Xi's actions. After all, his life was in the hands of these surrendered generals. How could he not take corresponding precautions?
"Why are you still calling me Young Master?" Yuan Xi asked with a smile.
Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment before she bowed deeply to Yuan Xi.
"I, Zhao Yun, pay my respects to the Lord!"
"Hahaha, Zilong, please get up. It's not easy to get your loyalty.”
Zhao Yun scratched her head in embarrassment when she heard that. She was no longer as cold as before and was laughing foolishly.
In the end, Zhao Yun was just a young man, not much different from Yuan Xi's age.
"General Yan Liang, I made the decision today. You can report it to Old Weng later.”Yuan Xi looked at Yan Liang and instructed.
Even if Yuan Xi did not remind him, Yan Liang would definitely report to Yuan Shao afterwards. It was better for Yuan Xi to take the initiative to say it and show his magnanimity.
"Young Master, I…"
Yuan Xi waved his hand." I won't make things difficult for General. Instead, I should thank General."”
"Young Master is magnanimous! Yan Liang is impressed!"
After a short day of contact, Yan Liang's impression of Yuan Xi was very good, and he would no longer view Yuan Xi as a profligate son.
Yuan Xi was also very satisfied with this result. Not only did he befriend Yan Liang, but he also subdued Zhao Yun, this fierce general. His gains were bountiful.
"Zilong, order some reliable people. A hundred or so people will do. Today, I want to accompany Xijun home to visit her relatives.”Yuan Xi turned around and instructed Zhao Yun.
Yuan Xi attached great importance to Zhen Mi's return to her mother's house. Not only did he want Zhen Mi to return in glory, but he also had his own plans.
The Zhen family was a wealthy family in Hebei Province and was also Zhen Mi's maiden family. They were his natural support. Yuan Xi was determined to obtain the Zhen family's support this time.
"This general will obey!" Zhao Yun immediately cupped her fists and agreed.
"General Yan Liang, I still have a presumptuous request that I hope general will agree to.”Yuan Xi said with an embarrassed expression.
"Young Master, feel free to say it. If I can help you, I won't refuse!”Yan Liang patted his chest and agreed.
Yuan Xi laughed secretly in his heart. He was waiting for this sentence.
"Uh... Can you lend me some warhorses so that I can send you back with great fanfare?”
The smile on Yan Liang's face froze when he heard this, but when he thought of the beautiful words he had just said, he still braced himself and said,"Young Master is too polite…What's there to borrow? I'll make the decision to send some horses to Young Master.”
One warhorse was equivalent to ten soldiers.
A hundred warhorses were equivalent to a thousand soldiers. Moreover, warhorses were even more precious. Yan Liang's heart was bleeding.
"That's not appropriate! I think it's still considered a loan." Yuan Xi smiled and declined.
"No worries!" Yan Liang gritted his teeth." It's just a hundred warhorses. I can still make the decision!”
"Then it would be impolite of me to refuse." Yuan Xi affectionately patted Yan Liang's shoulder.
