As expected, it was him, Dian Wei. He was hailed by Cao Cao as the most powerful general in ancient times, the one who could raise the Yamen Flag with one hand. In later generations, some people even thought that if they were to compete in infantry combat, even Lu Bu might not be able to beat Dian Wei.
In the second year of Jian 'an (197 AD), Zhang Xiu betrayed Cao Cao. In order to protect Cao Cao, Dian Wei fought against the rebels alone and killed many people. However, he was outnumbered and died in battle.
Yuan Shao looked at Dian Wei with a trace of doubt and expectation and asked: "I wonder if the warrior is Chen Liuji's man?“
Hearing Yuan Shao's words, Dian Wei appeared somewhat surprised and guarded as he asked,""How do you know that I'm your man? Are you from the government? You want to put me in jail! If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have saved you!”
As Dian Wei spoke, he actually raised the two black iron halberds in his hands. Yuan Shao was shocked, but he said calmly,"My surname is Yuan, my name is Yuan Shao, and my surname is Ben Chu. Although I am a lieutenant of the Central Army, I am not here to capture you. On the contrary, I admire the behavior of Hero Dian who sacrificed himself to save others. I believe in the noble character of Hero Dian. For such a hero to be wanted by the government, I think there must be something else going on. "In fact, if you believe me, I can help you eliminate the government's wanted list and regain your freedom. To express my gratitude, what do you think?”
"Is this…true? If you dare to lie to me, don't blame me for being merciless!”As Dian Wei spoke, he waved the dark iron halberd in his hand.
"Warrior Dian, don't be agitated. If you hadn't saved us just now, we would have been killed by the wolves. If you don't believe me, you can return to Luoyang with us. With the strength of our Yuan Family, we can eliminate the arrest warrant for Warrior Dian tomorrow and let him regain his freedom.”Yuan Shao slowly raised his hands, his expression calm.
"Alright, I, Dian Wei, will believe you this once. If you can remove my bounty, I will follow you and recognize you as my master. But if you dare to lie to me, I will kill you with my halberd.”Dian Wei was agitated, his right hand pointing at Yuan Shao with the halberd.
"Good! It's a deal. I swear to the heavens that if I can't help Hero Dian get rid of the bounty tomorrow and regain my freedom, I will be killed by Hero Dian. I have no complaints!!!”Yuan Shao immediately pointed at the sky and swore.
"Big brother! "This…" When Xu Da heard this, he hurriedly wanted to stop her.
"Second brother, believe me, there won't be any mistakes.”
" System, help me check Dian Wei's four dimensions." Yuan Shao asked the system in his mind.
" Alright, host, please wait a moment... Checking. Commander Dian Wei: 72, Strength: 98, Intelligence: 35, Political: 29, Darksteel Twin Halberds Strength: 1, Detected Dian Wei's attribute of 'Protector of the Master'. When the lord is in danger, Strength: 5. Dian Wei's second attribute " Halberd Throwing ", Strength 7. Host, please note that " Protect Master " and " Halberd Throwing " cannot be stacked. Dian Wei's third attribute,"Infantry", when Dian Wei dismounted and fought on foot, his strength increased by 3. Throwing halberds and fighting on foot can be stacked!"
Immediately after, Yuan Shao and Xu Da mounted their horses. Yuan Shao looked at Dian Wei and stretched out his hand, saying,""Warrior Dian, how about we ride together?”
"No need! I'm too heavy, your horse can't carry me.”Dian Wei shook his huge head. After rejecting Yuan Shao, he dashed forward like flying and disappeared without a trace.
"Big brother, this person is really powerful." Xu Da exclaimed.
"Second brother, heroes often rise from the grass roots. Don't underestimate the people of the world. Remember, there are mountains beyond mountains, and there are people beyond people.”Yuan Shao used his finger to point at Dian Wei, who had disappeared without a trace, and instructed Xu Da.
"Let's go quickly, second brother. Don't wait until Luoyang is closed for the night and the city gates are closed. Giddyup!" Yuan Shao whipped his horse, causing it to gallop forward in pain.
"Hey! Big brother, wait for me!"
At 11:45, Yuan Shao and his group finally entered the city before the night ban.
The night was dark and the spring rain was sudden.
" It's raining, come and escort the strong men. Second Brother, this way." Yuan Shao stretched out his palm and looked at his hands that were soaked in the rain. His expression darkened.
Luoyang City, East Mao Gate, Sikong Manor!
Dense raindrops poured down from the sky, hitting the rubble of the study like ten thousand horses galloping, but also like an earth-shattering drum. It disturbed Yuan Kui's uneasiness.
Yuan Feng and Yuan Kui sat quietly on the cushions like old monks. Both of them chose to remain silent.
"Cough ~ cough!!!" From time to time, Yuan Feng covered his mouth with a handkerchief.
Hurried footsteps came from outside the door. Butler Barkley was holding a paper umbrella. Running until the rain soaked his shoes, he said with a heavy breath,"Old Master, Second Old Master, Eldest Young Master has returned and is in the front courtyard.”
"Oh, is there anyone else besides Benchu?”Yuan Kui slowly opened his eyes, and a bright light flashed in them.
"This…there are two more people. One of them is the second brother who became brothers with the Eldest Young Master yesterday. His surname is Xu Da and his surname is Tian De. "As for the other person, I've never seen him before, but…" Uncle Fu paused.
"Ahem, but what? Just tell me the truth!”Yuan Feng said.
"This person has disheveled hair and is nine feet tall. His face is ferocious and ferocious. He has the body of a tiger and the waist of a wolf.”Barkley walked into the study and took out the fire sickle from his pocket. Sparks flew and lit up a bronze oil lamp. The turpentine inside burned with a sizzling sound, making a crackling sound. Instantly, the study room was lit up.
"Hehe ~ This Yuan Benchu is actually still recruiting henchmen. I warned him a few years ago, but I didn't expect…" Yuan Kui thought that Dian Wei was a henchman recruited by Yuan Shao and couldn't help but shake his head.
"Cough! " Big Brother, I was still young and ignorant back then, but it's different now. The Emperor's health is deteriorating day by day, and the position of the Crown Prince has always been undecided. Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong are also well aware of this. The Emperor has always wanted to establish the Prince's Association, and Butcher He has always wanted to support the Prince's Bian. Coupled with Empress He's support, these two parties will definitely clash in the future, and the Darkhan Dynasty that had just calmed down not long ago will probably be in trouble again. It's good to have someone to protect Benchu. After all, knives and arrows have no eyes, fourth brother.”Yuan Feng agreed with Yuan Shao's actions.
"Alright, I know. After all…from what Uncle Fu said, that person seems to be a fierce general. It seemed that Benchu's ambition was not small! How about this, Barkley, you go and arrange their accommodation, then ask Benchu to come to the study room.”Yuan Kuixin was as clear as a mirror.
"Okay, Second Elder, but this…Second Young Master hasn't returned to the residence yet, do you think…?”Uncle Fu was just about to go out when he remembered that Yuan Shu had not returned to the residence tonight, so he reminded him.
"Cough! Humph! Gong Lu, this unfilial son who doesn't learn countless things, doesn't do serious things all day long and mingles in the land of fireworks. Fourth Brother, look, the Yuan family will be ruined by him sooner or later!”At the mention of Yuan Shu, Yuan Feng was furious.
"Alright, alright, Third Brother, don't be angry. There's still Benchu! Perhaps the continuation of the Yuan family depended on Benchu!”Yuan Kui stroked his green beard, thinking of the younger generation in the family, Yuan Shao was the most hardworking.
"Okay, I understand. I'll go down and make the arrangements now.”
In front of the outer courtyard, Yuan Shao ordered the servants to greet Xu Da and Dian Wei. As they walked, he said to Dian Wei,"Warrior Dian, it's late tonight. I'll arrange for some servants to prepare hot water for you.”
"That's good! I'm hungry too. Tell them to prepare food and wine.”Dian Wei didn't stand on ceremony.
"Good! You guys go and prepare more food and wine. Second brother, you should go with Hero Dian.”Finished talking, Yuan Shao gave Xu Da a look.
"Okay, big brother, we won't go home until we're drunk tonight!”Xu Da immediately understood Yuan Shao's thoughts and pulled Dian Wei inside, trying to build a good relationship.
" Alright, I see that you are a man too. I, Dian Wei, love to befriend men like you." Dian Wei stretched out his large hand and slapped Xu Da's shoulder.
"Warrior Dian, you can call me Tiande.”Xu Da pulled Dian Wei toward the inner courtyard with a face of familiarity.
Yuan Shao silently looked at the two disappearing figures and remained silent. It was only when Yuan Fu arrived in front of him that he finally understood and said,""Uncle Fu, what's so important?”
"Eldest Young Master, Old Master and Second Master are waiting for you in the study.”Yuan Fu bowed slightly and extended his right hand to make an inviting gesture.
"Alright, I understand, Uncle Fu. It's late, you should rest early."
