Hearing Ding Yuan's words, Lu Bu's expression turned ugly.
Why are you bringing this up!
Cheng Chong smiled and said nothing.
Ding Yuan was puzzled.
"Yes, what's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"
Lu Bu shook his head and said in a low voice.
"Provincial Governor, I lost."
"Cheng Cheng's troops were faster than me and completed the night attack first, arriving at Wu County!”
In front of Ding Yuan, Lu Bu didn't have any intention of acting shamelessly.
He let out a long sigh, feeling a little dejected. He turned around and picked up his Heavenly Halberd.
After staring at it for a long time, he finally hardened his heart.
He handed the Heavenly Halberd to Cheng Chong.
"A real man is willing to lose!"
"This Heavenly Halberd is yours!”
"However, you have to take good care of him. Don't let him be covered in dust!”
Cheng Chong didn't take it.
Lu Bu couldn't help but look furious.
His tiger eyes widened as he stared at Cheng Chong and said in a muffled voice.
"Cheng Wuhui, what do you mean?!"
"Could it be that you don't like my Heavenly Halberd?”
Cheng Chong laughed.
"Fengxian misunderstood."
"Fengxian, you should take this Heavenly Halberd back!”
"Previously, when the enemy was in front of us, the bet with Fengxian was just a provocation. It was to make Fengxian kill the enemy more valiantly.”
"Furthermore, I've also heard that this Heavenly Halberd is a relic left behind by Fengxian. It's also a comrade who has accompanied Fengxian for many years.”
"Just treat it as a joke.”
Lu Bu was stunned.
Then, his eyes were filled with a touched expression.
He originally thought that Cheng Chong was a scheming villain, but now it seemed that he had measured a gentleman's belly with a villain's heart!
Cheng Chong was skilled in military planning and was such a magnanimous person.
It was worthy of his admiration!
After a long silence, Lu Bu suddenly bowed.
His tall and sturdy body bent down toward Cheng Chong.
"Thank you, Brother Wuhui!"
This was a sincere bow.
Zhang Liao stood behind Cheng Chong and looked at Lu Bu's transformation, his eyes filled with amazement.
His lord was really too powerful!
Setting up the bet, using words to provoke him, and now he had lightly lifted the bet.
This series of actions was dazzling.
From the beginning to the end, Cheng Chong did not contribute anything, but he had received a huge amount of respect and goodwill from Lu Bu!
This was simply the classic example of getting something for nothing!
Ding Yuan's eyes also flickered.
He stared deeply at Cheng Chong.
He also didn't expect Cheng Chong to have such a broad mind and vision at such a young age.
In time, this child would definitely become a great person!
He muttered to himself for a moment before speaking in a clear voice.
"Haha, Fengxian is brave and invincible, Wuhui is intelligent and resourceful, they are both heroes of our Bing Province!”
"In this old man's opinion, if we unite, we will benefit both sides, and if we separate, we will lose both sides.”
"Instead of fighting on your own, why don't you two join forces? In this way, he would definitely be able to obtain greater merits and achievements!”
Hearing this, Lu Bu was delighted.
He now had a good impression and respect for Cheng Chong.
He didn't reject Ding Yuan's suggestion. Instead, he agreed with it.
He bowed deeply once more.
"Fengxian deeply agrees with the words of the Provincial Governor!”
"If Brother Wuhui is willing, I am willing to lead my 2,000 brothers to join Brother Wuhui.”
"In the future, Brother Wuhui will do whatever he wants. I will definitely not have any objections!”
Cheng Chong narrowed his eyes and glanced at Ding Yuan.
He stepped forward and helped Lu Bu up.
"If Fengxian has such intentions, then I naturally welcome you!”
"From now on, we're all family!”
"A real man will work hard for the country and fight against the bandits together. We will seek the position of Marquis on the battlefield!”
Everyone burst into laughter.
With the addition of Lu Bu, Cheng Chong now had another valiant general under his command.
More importantly, there were two thousand more troops.
This doubled Cheng Chong's power!
Even in the world, he could be considered a powerful faction among the various dukes.
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, everyone dispersed.
Ding Yuan looked at the backs of Lu Bu and Cheng Chong in silence.
The attendant asked in confusion.
"Milord, didn't you value Lu Bu's bravery and plan to take him in as your foster son?”
"Why did you push Lu Bu to Cheng Chong?”
"Wouldn't it be a pity to miss such a brave general?”
Ding Yuan shook his head slightly and said in a low voice.
"What do you know? Cheng Cheng Wuhui was a character, and he had taken a fancy to Lu Bu.”
"Because of the bet, Lu Bu felt both admiration and guilt towards him. If we really fight, I can't win against him.”
"Instead of falling out with each other and making both sides look bad, it's better to do a favor and directly facilitate this matter!”
"This way, Cheng Chong is a smart person and will naturally remember this favor of mine. With his talent, he was definitely not someone ordinary. Sooner or later, he would grow into an important minister of Great Han. If I, Ding Yuan, am in trouble, he can also help me!”
The attendant nodded slightly, seemingly understanding.
