The army was getting closer and closer…
Vaguely, he could already see a group of people standing at the foot of Hanshou County.
The leader was wearing a brocade robe and had a thick beard, but it could not hide his aura at all.
Who else could it be but Cao Cao?
Wei Yu looked over and saw that he was very pleased with himself. The corners of his mouth curled up as he thought to himself…
"This smug expression, this radiant complexion…Old Cao must have succeeded with Madam Gan…"
* Cough cough *
Wei Yu's heart skipped a beat, and a smile appeared on his face.
"I didn't expect that Sikong Cao would come 30 miles from Guandu to pick us up.”
Cao Ren also laughed loudly and led Wei Yu on his horse.
Guan Yu and Xiahou Yuan followed closely behind…
Before the four of them could arrive, Cao Cao, who had been standing at the same spot, welcomed them with a smile. He held Wei Yu and Guan Yu's mounts with both hands.
Originally…
Because he had expected Guan Yu to leave.
He was still feeling rather troubled…
However, Wei Yu's sudden appearance and ingenious plan to solve the White Horse's siege aside…
With this move, Cao Cao was eager for Guan Yu to leave with his two wives, Gan and Mi.
The feeling of cheating on Liu Bei and making him work for him wholeheartedly was really satisfying.
With a son like Wei Yu, even if a hundred Guan Yus were to leave…Cao Cao would still be calm.
Of course…
Even though he was thinking this in his heart, he still had to act politely on the surface.
"Young Master Wei, General Guan…"
"Your Twin Feathers expedition this time, Yuan Camp really didn't have a single blade of grass growing! Haha…"
"Come, look…"
As he spoke, Cao Cao led Wei Yu and Guan Yu to the side.
He pointed at the two seals that the Tiger Troop soldiers held up high.
" I've already reported to Tian Zi that Guan Yu will be conferred the title of Marquis of Hanshou Pavilion and Wei Yu will be conferred the title of Marquis of Weishou Pavilion. This is the seal…"
As he spoke, Cao Cao handed the Hanshou Pavilion Marquis Seal to Guan Yu and the Weishou Pavilion Marquis Seal to Wei Yu.
Huo...
He was stunned.
Everyone was stunned.
If it was Guan Yu, it would be fine…
During this period of time, in order to capture his heart, Sikong Cao had been collecting gold and silver.
Although the reward given by the third marquis, Ting Hou, was precious, it was still worthy of Guan Yu's reputation.
But how long had Wei Yu been in Cao Cao's camp?
Although this time he cleverly solved the siege of White Horse and killed more than ten thousand Hebei heavy cavalry, no matter how great his contribution was, it couldn't compare to Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao who fought with Cao Sikong, right?
One had to know that even Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao were not conferred the title of Marquis.
Instantly.
Almost all of Cao Cao's advisors and generals paled.
Even Wei Yu's eyes narrowed…He was extremely shocked.
Although the books always wrote that Cao Cao was very good at buying people's hearts.
But now, this move was used on himself.
Wei Yu muttered in his heart,'What a good method!
Putting everything else aside, Cao Ren and Xiahou Yuan had also made great contributions in this battle, yet Cao Cao didn't even look at them. Wasn't this attitude of treating the virtuous with respect?
Thinking of this…
Wei Yu cupped his hands and bowed…
We should cooperate with Old Cao's performance. We can't turn a blind eye to it!
"Thank you, Sikong Cao, for your reward, but this time…Wei Yu doesn't dare to be the first!”
Oh…
Cao Cao was stunned.
He raised his hand and signaled Wei Yu to continue.
Wei Yu looked around at Cao Ren and Xiahou Yuan…
"Sikong Cao, the reason why we were able to defeat the Yuan army twice in the battle at Whiterun City was because of Sikong Cao's strategic planning and his ability to appoint people well…"
" Secondly, Cao Ren, Cao Chun, Xiahou Yuan, General Guan Yu, and the Tiger Leopard Cavalry warriors will fight bravely against the enemy…"
"I, Wei Yu, was just using my mouth…I was lucky enough to find the enemy's weakness. If we were to talk about merit, Sikong Cao would be the first, General Guan, Cao Ren, Cao Chun, and General Xiahou Yuan would be the second, and I, Wei Yu, would be the third.”
"Wei Yu boldly suggests that Sikong Cao must reward the tiger leopard cavalry heavily!”
Act…
He had to act!
Wei Yu boasted that he was not as noble as Qiao Pei. If he wanted to live long in Cao's camp, he had to cling tightly to the thighs of the Cao clansmen and the Tiger Leopard Cavalry.
There would be more scenes like this in the future.
Sigh…It's not easy for me to live in troubled times!
Huo...
Wei Yu's words were sweet to everyone's heart.
Don't be arrogant when you win. In front of the big leader, give the credit to your brothers…
Not to mention Cao Ren and Xiahou Yuan.
Even Guan Yu…even the armored warriors of the Tiger Leopard Cavalry were touched when they heard this.
Although Wei Yu was young, he was a person worthy of being befriended!
Cao Cao nodded his head.
He then looked at Wei Yu with satisfaction.
He wanted to blurt it out…
"Yu 'er, you are my son. If the credit is yours, it is yours. There is no need to give it to anyone!”
"Father is still waiting for you to perform meritorious deeds. He will give you a greater official title and entrust you with more important responsibilities!”
"However…if you are able to be so calm, love your soldiers, and consider others, you will definitely be an outstanding lord in the future.”
Cao Cao's eyes lit up.
For the first time, he was moved by his son's words.
"Alright…since Military Advisor Wei Yu is asking for a reward for the Tiger Leopard Cavalry!”
"Then in this battle, every Tiger Leopard Cavalry soldier will be promoted by one rank, and each of them will be rewarded with thousands of coins and hundreds of brocades!”
"However…Military Advisor Wei Yu deserves the first credit in this battle. The seal of Marquis Wei Shouting must be yours!”
"Haha, come…"
"Marquis Weishou must be extremely tired from the bumpy journey. Quickly follow me into Hanshou County, I have already ordered people to prepare a sumptuous banquet.”
"And General Guan, let's all take our seats!”
…
Once upon a time.
Sikong Cao treated Guan Yu with courtesy. In Cao's camp, Guan Yu was an existence that everyone envied.
But now, everyone suddenly realized.
Sikong Cao seemed to treat Wei Yu with even more respect!
Even…
From the looks of it, this courtesy was above Guan Yu's.
For a moment…
Cao Ren's heart ached…
Big brother had never treated his clan brother like this before!
However…
Wei Yu was a genius, even if Big Brother treated him with such courtesy, he deserved it.
