No one knew what Cheng Yu was saying in the Yellow Turban camp.
Everyone could only look up and wait for the news.
Cao Ren led the army and didn't remove their armor.
They quietly waited for news from Cheng Yu in the main tent!
One night later.
It was dawn.
There was still no news from Cheng Yu.
The gate of the Yellow Turban camp was still tightly shut.
Many people in Cao Camp did not sleep the entire night.
Cao Cao led his troops and stood far away from the Yellow Turban camp, looking at the entrance of the camp.
He felt uneasy.
If Cheng Yu failed, it would mean that the psychological attack had failed.
It meant that they had to defeat the Yellow Turban Army on the battlefield!
Cao Cao wasn't 100% confident!
"My lord! Zhong De had already been inside for a night, so he was probably doomed.”
"I'm willing to lead my troops to avenge Zhongde!" Cao Ren stepped forward and cupped his hands.”
"We are also willing to go!"
The Cao Camp generals shouted in unison.
"Wait a little longer."
Cao Cao refused.
"Even if Zhongde managed to convince the Yellow Turban Army, they still have to consider it.”
"One night, not long."
Hearing Cao Cao's words, the generals quieted down.
Although he had convinced everyone, Cao Cao himself was not as calm as he appeared on the surface.
He had already made up his mind.
If Cheng Yu's head was hung by the Yellow Turban Army in front of the camp, he would personally lead the army to fight the Yellow Turban Army!
Just as Cao Cao was thinking about this…
The gate of the Yellow Turban Army's camp opened!
For a moment.
Everyone in Cao Camp looked at the entrance of the camp.
Under everyone's expectant gazes.
The first thing he saw was an old man.
It was Cheng Yu!
He walked out of the Yellow Turban camp!
Hold your head high and chest out!
At this moment, a small scholar seemed to be able to suppress the world!
The only thing left in everyone's eyes was Cheng Yu's figure!
Behind Cheng Yu were the unarmed Yellow Turban soldiers.
They had surrendered!
Put down your weapons!
Everyone from Cao Ying was ecstatic and quickly went up to welcome him.
Cao Ren and the others went to receive the surrendered troops while Cao Cao went to welcome Cheng Yu.
"Zhong De! You have made great contributions in subduing the Yellow Turban Army!”
Cao Cao stepped forward and held Cheng Yu's hand tightly as he said excitedly.
This Yellow Turban Army was not only made up of soldiers, but also hundreds of thousands of families!
What was the most important thing in a chaotic world?
It was population!
These people were enough to become the foundation of his hegemony!
"It was Boyu's plan to subdue the Yellow Turban Army.”
"Cheng Yu merely followed Boyu's plan and did his part. He didn't dare to be greedy!”
Cheng Yu cupped his hands and bowed, refusing to acknowledge Cao Cao's words.
"Yes, that's right. Boyu was the one who contributed the most! You're a secondary skill! All of you have contributed." Cao Cao's excitement subsided as he nodded.
Then, Cheng Yu bade farewell and left.
Everyone thought that Cheng Yu was going to rest. He probably hadn't slept last night either.
However…
Unexpectedly, Cheng Yu went straight to Lu Yu's residence.
In the garden, Cheng Yu saw Lu Yu playing chess with Diao Chan.
"Boyu! I was wrong a few days ago! I'm sorry!"
Cheng Yu bowed to Lu Yu and apologized solemnly.
Thinking of the little tricks he had used earlier, Cheng Yu's face instantly turned a little ashamed.
Now, Lu Yu's plan had succeeded!
He saved the people of Yanzhou!
He saved hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers!
This plan had boundless merit!
He is indeed a man of benevolence and righteousness!
He actually ridiculed a benevolent person. It was really a despicable act!
"Let's drink together when we're free."
Lu Yu looked up at Cheng Yu and smiled.
Seeing Lu Yu's nonchalant appearance...
Cheng Yu sighed even more.
He also understood why Chen Gong had praised Lu Yu so much!
Why did Cao Cao regard Lu Yu as his right-hand man?
Only a hero would have such magnanimity!
The follow-up work also took nearly a month.
There were too many Yellow Turban soldiers!
Not counting the soldiers, there were nearly seven hundred thousand family members!
Cao Cao did not hold back and took them all under his command!
These people could engage in agricultural production in the rear!
Cao Cao then transferred the elite soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army to form a new army.
Thus, most of them came from Qingzhou, so they were named the Qingzhou Army!
After everything was settled.
Cao Cao held a celebratory feast in the main hall of the city!
The nobles of Yanzhou naturally came as well.
When discussing the merits of this matter, whether it was the Cao camp or the Yanzhou aristocrats, they all credited Lu Yu with the greatest merit!
Cheng Yu was the second best!
The second credit was Cao Ren, Cao Hong, and the others!
"Since everyone has contributed, we will reward you!”
Cao Cao laughed.
"Duke Cao, I'm afraid it won't be so easy this time! Boyu, who had contributed the most, did not attend this celebration banquet.”
Someone from the Yanzhou aristocratic families wanted to stir up trouble.
These aristocrats had also heard about Lu Yu.
They wanted to see how Cao Cao would deal with Lu Yu's impudence.
Chen Gong glared at the person who spoke and cupped his hands."My lord! Boyu was drunk last night! That's why he didn't come!"
Cheng Yu also stepped forward." Before Boyu got drunk, he told me that he couldn't come this time. He asked me to inform the lord."”
Seeing the two of them like this.
Cao Cao was silent at first, then he laughed loudly.
He pointed at Chen Gong and said,"Gongtai, do you think I'll be angry?" Will he be angry with Boyu? Who do you think I am?”
Then, he looked at Cheng Yu and smiled.""Based on my understanding of Boyu, he wouldn't say such words to you. If Boyu doesn't come, then he's too lazy to come.”
Cheng Yu's expression instantly became extremely awkward.
He had somewhat forgotten.
Lu Yu had followed Cao Cao when he had nothing.
Now, Cao Cao controlled a prefecture.
They all had a deep relationship with Lu Yu!
"Let's not talk about gold and silver," Cao Cao continued,"I heard that Boyu likes beautiful women. Then today, he would take advantage of the celebration banquet to give Boyu forty beauties! They're all beautiful women!"
The eyes of the nobles in Yanzhou almost popped out when they heard this!
They still wanted to see Cao Cao get angry.
In the end, not only was Cao Cao not angry, he even increased the reward!
Chen Gong and Cheng Yu looked at each other.
There was a bitter smile in his eyes.
Worry for nothing!
