In Cao Yu's tent.
Zhao Yun took a cautious step back and cupped her fists at Cao Yu.
"Third Young Master, this subordinate can stand.”
Although Zhao Yun was a little dejected about being given to Cao Yu by Gongsun Zan, she could only accept it.
However, he was also a little disappointed to be the guard of a devilish brat.
After all, he was a peerless general. First, he was hidden under Gongsun Zan as an unimportant guard.
Now, Gongsun Zan had given a white horse to Cao Yu, an eight-year-old brat, as a guard.
How could Zhao Yun accept this?
Back then, he had joined Gongsun Zan because he had heard that Gongsun Zan was a hero who fought against the Outsiders. In the end, Gongsun Zan did not have the discerning eye and did not recognize heroes.
Now, he was reduced to a child's guard.
"Zilong, do you think it's not worth it to follow me?”
Although Cao Yu had the body of a child, he was not a true devilish brat. With the soul of an adult, he could tell at a glance that Zhao Yun was unwilling.
That's right, how could a person with the bearing of a famous general be willing to be a guard?
"This subordinate does not dare."
Hearing this, Zhao Yun looked at Cao Yu in surprise. Clearly, she did not expect Cao Yu, this devilish brat, to actually know this.
At the same time, he had a strange thought.
Could it be that the Third Young Master was pretending?
The reason why he chose me was because he has a discerning eye?
After all, why didn't he choose someone else and insist on pulling him away?
"Haha, three days later, it will be your chance to shine.”
When Cao Yu saw this, how could he not understand Zhao Yun's thoughts? He used his chubby little hand to pretend to be an adult and wanted to pat Zhao Yun's shoulder.
However, it was a pity that he was only eight years old at the moment. In the end, he could only hold Zhao Yun's hand and speak like a little adult.
Afterwards, he put his hands behind his back and stepped out of the tent, leaving behind an unfathomable figure for Zhao Yun.
"Three days later?"
"Wait, how did Third Young Master know my identity?”
Zhao Yun was not surprised that Cao Yu knew his name. However, Cao Yu not only knew his name, but also his surname and even his hometown.
This not only made Zhao Yun more convinced of her guess.
"Third Young Master, I'm afraid that things are not as simple as they seem.”
Zhao Yun was also an intelligent person and instantly understood.
However, since Cao Yu was intentionally pretending, he could not expose him.
At this moment, Zhao Yun was also looking forward to what opportunity Cao Yu was talking about.
……
Just like that, three days passed.
During this period, news of the Tiger of River East, Sun Jian, who was the vanguard, would come in from time to time, causing the dukes to be in high spirits.
In fact, many dukes were thinking about what would happen after Sun Jian broke through Tiger Cage Pass and moved in.
Of course, there were also some who were dissatisfied.
He is the grain officer Yuan Shu.
Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao, the alliance leader of the 18th vassal alliance, were both members of the Yuan family of Runan. They were born as three princes for four generations.
However, Yuan Shu was narrow-minded. When he saw Sun Jian's successive victories, he secretly took away Sun Jian's rations and even bought them in order.
Sun Jian, who was short of food, had no choice but to rush to attack. In the end, he fell into Hwa Xiong's trap because he was eager for quick success.
Although they had escaped death, their vanguard army had suffered heavy losses. They had even lost a general, Zu Mao.
He had also been slashed by Hwa Xiong and was defeated by the alliance army.
On this day, Sun Jian's defeat was reported back to the alliance army, and all the dukes were shocked!
At the same time, Tiger Cage Pass 'commander Hua Xiong ignored the advice of his deputy Xu Rong and sent out 50,000 troops to form a formation outside the vassal's camp!
……
Cao Camp.
Cao Cao, who was discussing strategy with his brother Cao Ren, suddenly received a report from his soldiers.
"Report, General Sun Jian of the vanguard army has returned in defeat. He has suffered heavy casualties. Now, Western Liang's General Hua Xiong is in formation outside the camp to challenge him!”
"What?!"
"General Sun Jian has been defeated!"
"Impossible!"
When Cao Cao heard that Sun Jian had been defeated, he was shocked!
He had once defeated Yellow Turban Marshal Bo Cai with Sun Jian during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, so he knew Sun Jian's capabilities.
Moreover, he was known as the Tiger of River East and rarely lost. Now that he was defeated by Hua Xiong and lost General Zu Mao, he was shocked.
"What else?"
A moment later, Cao Cao calmed down and looked at the messenger.
"Alliance Master has summoned all the dukes to the main tent for a meeting.”
"Yes, I understand."
"Tell Alliance Master that Cao Cao will be here soon.”
"Yes!"
After the messenger left, Cao Cao said to Cao Ren.
"Come, follow me to meet the various dukes.”
"Yes!"
At the same time, just as Cao Cao was about to leave for the main tent, Cao Yu said to Zhao Yun, who was beside him.
"Zilong, the time has come. Let's go."
"Yes!"
