The person hadn't arrived yet, but the person who spoke was one person, but there were three people who came in. Duan Peng almost laughed out loud when he saw the appearance of the three people.
One of them was not tall, but he was very stocky. His black face could be compared to coal. The other one was tall and muscular. His beard was as exaggerated as Zhang Fei's. Only the one in the middle was tall and sturdy. He was always smiling.
If these three people were left alone, they wouldn't have felt anything, but when compared, they felt funny. However, Duan Peng had already guessed who they were, considering that they could directly rush into the Cheng residence and scold Cheng Zhijie.
After Cheng Zhijie's introduction, it was just as Duan Peng had guessed. These three people were the famous Yuchi Jingde, Niu Jinda, and Li Ji.
They were all old brothers who had been together for many years, so they naturally spoke and did things casually. Without Cheng Zhijie's permission, Niu Jinda asked someone to set up a table for the three of them. Before the servants could finish it, the three of them picked up a jar of Sanle liquor and drank it.
"Old bastard Cheng, don't think you can get rid of us with just a few jars of Sanle pulp.”After drinking five or six jars of wine, Yuchi Jingde spoke first,""Brother Duan is such a talented person, yet you're using an eighth rank military officer to recruit him. You're looking down on him.”
"That's right. You old fool, you just won't give up until you see the rabbit. You always want to do business without capital. I think you're used to being a bandit.”Niu Jinda also echoed and then smiled at Duan Peng.""Brother Duan, don't look at them as dukes. I'm only a Marquis of Langya County, but as long as you come, I'll guarantee you a Rank-7 Fruit-Bearing Lieutenant.”
"Wow, you shameless old things.”Cheng Zhijie was furious." You eat and drink from my Old Cheng, and you even f * cking want to snatch my people? Are you really bullying the Cheng family for not having anyone?" Someone, bring me my horse lance. I want to teach these ignorant old bastards a lesson.”
When Cheng Zhijie said this, Niu Jinda and Yuchi Gong were not convinced. They stood up and pulled Cheng Zhijie out to compete with their fists and feet. Cheng Zhijie was not to be outdone. He directly gave Niu Jinda a black eye and sneakily kicked Yuchi Jingde's crotch. The three of them fought together. They were not like the dukes of the country. They were simply hoodlums.
Duan Peng smiled and didn't say anything. He only looked at Li Ji, who had a look of indifference. Li Ji also looked at Duan Peng and nodded with a smile.
Before coming, he had only heard from his son Li Zhen how amazing Duan Peng's mandarin duck formation was, beating up the Left Guards without the slightest strength to retaliate under the same number of people. That was why Li Ji had come over to take a look out of curiosity.
Although he and Cheng Zhijie were scolding each other all day, he was sure of the ferociousness of the Left Guards. He was able to make a group of bad people beat the Left Guards without any strength to fight back through the array. Of course, Li Ji wanted to see such a person.
For Li Ji, if Duan Peng had some ability but was frivolous, then he would treat it as a visit to Cheng Zhijie.
But now, the calmness and propriety that Duan Peng displayed moved Li Ji. At such an age, he was unperturbed in the face of change, and he even knew such profound array formations. How could he not want such a talent?
"Brother Duan, let's have a drink together." Li Ji got up with a smile and walked over to Duan Peng's side to sit down. He clinked the jar with Duan Peng, then took a big gulp and said,""Brother Duan, this old man thinks that you have to understand a principle. It's useless to have a high starting point.”
"General Li is wise. I think so too.”Duan Peng knew that Li Ji also wanted to persuade him, so he drank a mouthful of wine and waited for Li Ji to continue.
"That's easy to say." Li Ji smiled and said," Cheng Zhijie is a lunatic, and Niu Jinda is a wild bull. As for Yuchi Gong, that black face makes people angry. Why don't you just work under me?" You won't be given such a high position, but your subordinates will still be under your command. Our Great Tang has used troops many times. With Brother Duan's abilities, are you afraid that you won't be able to obtain a high position? A real man would obtain fame immediately. Relying on the deliberate promotion of others, this official position was not comfortable, right?”
Although Duan Peng knew that Li Ji was unable to take out a higher official position to bribe him, he was doing the opposite and talking about moral integrity and ideals with him.
Just as he was about to say something to expose Li Ji's scheme and tell him that he would not fall for it, a meat bone suddenly flew over and hit Li Ji's face. Li Ji's expression immediately changed.
"Motherf * cker, you guys are fighting your own battles, but you actually sneak-attacked me. I think you guys are courting death.”As Li Ji spoke, he charged forward furiously.
"Pfft, you shameless Li Ji. We beat people's brains out so fast, yet you secretly snatched them yourself.”While dealing with Niu Jinda and Yuchi Gong, Cheng Zhijie took the time to curse,""You treacherous villain, I'm going to beat you up!”
"Old Cheng is right. Li Ji, you are shameless.”Yuchi Gong also cursed," We're all robbing openly. You f * cking hide and play tricks. You're the most shameless one." Old Cheng, don't hit me first. Let's hit this shameless one first.”
Duan Peng watched as the battle group turned from three people to four people, fighting so fiercely that it was impossible for him to stop it at all.
Moreover, it seemed that they wouldn't be able to finish fighting in a short period of time. He had already eaten and drunk his fill, so there was no point in staying.
But seeing these awesome generals in history trying to snatch him, a strong sense of pride also rose in Duan Peng's heart. This daddy is just so awesome. Are you convinced or not?
However, no matter who he relied on, he would ultimately become someone else's subordinate. His temper would definitely not be able to withstand being inferior for no reason.
Duan Peng knew his temper and also understood that although these four people only took a fancy to his ability, they were sincerely recruiting him. In order to avoid not looking good on his face later, he'd better leave first.
After leaving the hall, Duan Peng asked the steward of the Cheng Residence for a pen and paper. Duan Peng wrote a poem and instructed the steward to send it in after he finished typing.
Not long after Duan Peng left with Xu Guang and the others, Cheng Zhijie and the others had also finished fighting. The butler sent them in according to Duan Peng's instructions.
