In the alliance army camp.
It was a rare victory, and the various dukes were in a good mood.
They raised their cups and toasted Cao Cao.
After all, Zhao Yun was Cao Cao's subordinate. The credit for defeating Lu Bu ultimately belonged to Cao Cao's camp.
"Haha, everyone."
"Today's first victory belongs to Zilong!”
"In order to reward those who have made contributions, I, Cao, will naturally not be stingy.”
"Men, bring me the heavy armor from my camp!”
Cao Cao put down his wine cup and waved his hand. Eight soldiers carrying heavy armor and a wooden figure entered the camp.
Immediately after, the eight soldiers put the heavy armor on the wooden man.
"Who wants to try this heavy armor?”
"Anyone who breaks this armor will be rewarded with a hundred taels!”
Cao Cao shouted.
Seeing this situation, all the vassals thought that Cao Cao was going to reward Zhao Yun with a set of armor!
As the saying goes, one armor can withstand three crossbows, and three can enter the underworld.
For a fierce general who charged into battle, armor was extremely important, almost equivalent to a second life.
Seeing this, Yuan Shao sneered and waved his hand behind him.
General Jiang Qi understood and immediately walked out."Let me try!"
Jiang Qi was a valiant general under Yuan Shao. He was extremely brave, but he pulled out the sword at his waist, walked to the side of the heavy armor, and slashed down with all his might.
"Clang!" There was a loud bang.
Sparks flew everywhere.
The fine steel sword in Jiang Qi's hand actually had a gap.
The heavy armor did not even leave a white mark!
As for the wooden man in the heavy armor, he was still safe and sound!
When the surrounding dukes saw this, they were all shocked.
"Haha, men, reward this general with ten thousand coins!”
"This heavy armor weighs more than a thousand pounds. Ordinary weapons can't break it!”
"In the past, it was hung in a village temple as a sacrifice for the people!”
Cao Cao was extremely generous. Even if Jiang Qi returned empty-handed, he would still reward him!
When the various dukes heard this, they immediately laughed.
A thousand jin heavy armor that even a horse couldn't carry. It had no practical value at all, and he wanted to reward it to his generals?
Faced with the disdainful looks of the various dukes, Cao Cao suddenly stood up from his seat and strode towards the wooden man in heavy armor. He suddenly pulled out the sword at his waist.
In the next moment.
Everyone only heard a soft sound.
The wooden man in heavy armor was cut in half at the waist and fell heavily to the ground with a muffled bang!
At this moment, Cao Cao raised the sword in his hand, and a cold light radiated from the sword.
"This sword is called the Azure Melon Sword. It is one of the two peerless swords that exist today!”
"Slash iron like mud!"
"Since ancient times, a sword has been given to a hero!"
"Zilong, you have made a great contribution. I, Cao Mengde, will now reward you with this sword!”
With that, Cao Cao sheathed his sword and solemnly handed it to Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun already had a mount, armor, and a long weapon. She only lacked a weapon to carry with her.
After Zhao Ming's reminder,
Cao Cao decided to give one of his treasured swords, the Green Melon Sword, to Zhao Yun as a reward!
Zhao Yun took the sword, his handsome face moved.
The Azure Melon Sword was a peerless sword that could cut through iron like mud. Its value was comparable to ten thousand taels of gold, and it might not even be able to buy it!
But now, Cao Cao had casually given it to him!
What kind of attention and generosity was this?
"Thank you, my lord!"
Zhao Yun bowed to Cao Cao with one knee.
This was the most respectful etiquette to a superior during the Three Kingdoms period.
"Haha, Zilong, no need to be so polite!”
"Please get up quickly!"
Cao Cao laughed and helped Zhao Yun up. He then returned to the banquet and drank with Zhao Ming.
At this moment, he saw the Green Melon Sword in Zhao Yun's hand.
The countless generals felt jealous.
At this moment, Zhang Fei, who was standing behind Gongsun Zan, was very unconvinced.
"We also tied with Lu Bu!”
"If the three of us hadn't used up most of Lu Bu's stamina, how could Zhao Yun have beaten him back?”
"Wahhh, why aren't we rewarded at all?”
Zhang Fei was so angry that his eyes almost popped out.
After the defeat of Lu Bu in the battle of Liu Guan and Zhang, Gongsun Zan had only given them a slight promotion in their military positions. He hadn't even given them a bottle of medicine for wounds, let alone money, food, and soldiers!
As a result, Zhang Fei was filled with anger.
After all, in order to protect Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei had suffered many injuries during the battle with Lu Bu!
Of course, Gongsun Zan had also wanted to rope in Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, but he was not blind to be able to become a duke. After the battle, he naturally saw the position Liu Bei held in Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's hearts. He knew that these two fierce generals could not be kept.
Since that was the case, why would he waste his energy on Guan Yu and Zhang Fei?
"Third brother, don't speak nonsense!"
Guan Yu, who was injured, held his arm that was simply bandaged and stopped Zhang Fei.
Right at this moment, a minor colonel walked over and quietly handed a heavy bag to Guan Yu. He said respectfully,""General Guan, General Zhang, I've been ordered by my military advisor to bring you some medicine for your wounds!”
When Guan Yu heard this, his expression changed. He subconsciously wanted to catch it, but he quickly stopped.
"Who is your military advisor?"
"Zhao Ming, Zhao Junshi!"
"I won't accept a reward without merit. I thank General Zhao and ask you to pass on the message!”
"My military advisor said that General Guan and General Zhang had done a great job in exhausting Lu Bu's stamina. Even if they lost, they would still be honored. If it wasn't for the fact that they had so many concerns, they would definitely be rewarded in public!”
