The comparison between Zhang Liao and Xiahou Dun's gains after the battle inevitably aroused the desire of victory and defeat among the generals in the main tent.
After Zhang Liao, Li Dian, Yu Jin, Cao Chun, Zhang He, and the other generals all spoke up. After a rough calculation, the number of Xianbei soldiers that the Han army had directly wiped out had reached more than 100,000.
As for the warhorses, cows, and sheep, due to the huge number, they were currently being counted. There was no fixed number at all.
However, everyone present was certain of one thing…
There were at most fifty thousand Xianbei remnants that escaped back to the depths of the grasslands.
Without a few years or even ten years of rest, the Xianbei tribes in the north of Bingzhou and Jizhou would not be able to threaten the Great Han border.
Cao Cao understood this and was naturally happy.
After all the generals had reported their spoils, he looked behind Zhuge Mu in a good mood.
"Shu Zhi, are you still not going to introduce the three brave generals behind you to me and the other generals?”
"Haha!"
Cao Cao shook his head and laughed," Although the generals were silent when they were describing their achievements, Cao Cao's eyes are not blind!”
"In my opinion…"
"In this battle, the battle achievements of the three fierce generals behind you are not inferior to those of the generals present!”
As soon as Cao Cao said this, Xiahou Dun, Zhang Liao, and the other generals, who had been extremely excited just a moment ago, immediately turned their gazes to Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, and Huang Xu.
Amongst them, Huang Zhong and Wei Yan were the ones with the most attention.
It was because the two of them had led more than ten thousand Western Liang cavalry and Bingzhou wolf cavalry to the battlefield in the decisive battle three days ago. They had turned the tide when the building was about to collapse and forcefully blocked the attack of the Silver Wolf Guards and the Gold Wolf Guards.
Without their contributions, the generals in the tent would not have been able to look down on the Xianbei and talk about the spoils of war.
Under the gazes of Cao Cao and the other generals, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, and Huang Xu had different reactions.
Among them, Huang Zhong was the most indifferent.
Huang Zhong, who had been through a lot, had seen all kinds of situations. Even when faced with everyone's sizing him up, his breathing did not become chaotic at all.
Compared to Huang Zhong's indifference, Wei Yan's expression was arrogant.
Because the proud Wei Yan always believed that: In terms of ability to lead troops, he was no weaker than Xiahou Dun, Zhang Liao, Yu Jin, Li Dian, and the other generals present.
If he were to face off against the generals on the battlefield, he would be able to win.
With such a mentality, how could Wei Yan show any signs of satisfaction?
It was also because he was being guarded by Cao Cao. Otherwise, Zhuge Mu was really afraid that this " King of the Late Han Dynasty " would suddenly say something…
"Everyone here is trash!"
Compared to Huang Zhong and Wei Yan, Huang Xu's performance was slightly unsatisfactory.
He was the youngest of the three, and he did not hide the excitement on his face at all.
Noticing Huang Xu's performance, Zhuge Mu sighed in his heart and said," It's a waste of a young man if he doesn't show off." He then said to Wei Yan, Huang Zhong, and Huang Xu,"Hansheng, Wenchang, Zian, hurry up and greet the lord!”
"Nanyang, Huang Zhong, Huang Hansheng greets the lord!”
"Yi Yang, Wei Yan, and Wei Wenzhang greet the lord!”
"Nanyang, Huang Xu, and Huang Zian greet the lord!”
Gold would always shine!
At the most suitable time, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, and Huang Xu reported their names to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao walked down from the main seat.
After carefully sizing up the three of them for a moment, he smiled and said to the generals,"The victory over the 200,000 Xianbei troops is indeed a great joy for me, but what makes me even happier is…"
"I actually have three such fierce generals under me!”
"Among them, Old General Huang's martial prowess is no less than Lu Bu's, which is truly shocking.”
As he spoke, Cao Cao asked Huang Zhong doubtfully," Old General Huang, you and this young general Huang Xu are both from Nanyang. Judging by your age…"
"Don't tell me the two of you are father and son?!!!”
Cao Cao said uncertainly.
With his reminder, the generals present finally realized this point.
As for Zhuge Mu, he just smiled and didn't say a word. He didn't try to steal the limelight from Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, and the others.
"Reporting to my lord!"
"Huang Xu is my son.”
"My son is young. If he offends you in the future, please forgive him!”
Huang Zhong's words caused an uproar among the generals.
Because his words undoubtedly confirmed the speculation that Huang Xu was his son!
Brothers fighting tigers, father and son fighting!
None of the generals had expected that this scene would play out in front of them like a drama.
Beside Huang Zhong, Cao Cao saw that his guess had been confirmed and laughed loudly.
"Like father, like son!"
"Like father, like son!"
As he spoke, Cao Cao looked at Huang Xu.
"Huang Xu, I promise you in front of all the generals that as long as you don't commit a crime of treason in the future, I won't pursue it even if you beat up my sons on the street."”
Cao Cao turned to look at Huang Zhong and used his hand to interrupt him.
"Hansheng, you and your son are fighting for me on the battlefield. This is the treatment you deserve.”
"If I wasn't afraid that Shu Zhi wouldn't be willing to part with it…"
Cao Cao glanced at Zhuge Mu and said to Huang Zhong,""I will definitely transfer little general Huang to the Sikong residence to be the commander of the guards and be responsible for the safety of the residence together with Zhongkang.”
Zhuge Mu's eyes twitched when he heard Cao Cao's words.
If he remembered correctly…
Huang Xu, this brat, seemed to have already beaten up Cao Cao's son!
And it was the kind that was beaten black and blue.
And that son!
He was called Cao Zhang!
Cao Cao said that it was the most similar to his "Cao family's thousand-li steed".
