"Brother Meng De is so straightforward. Even so, I will immediately divide the treasures. Brother, please send someone to work together.”
Zhang Tian pretended to be afraid that Cao Cao would go back on his word.
However, in his heart, he had already cursed the other party's ancestors for eighteen generations.
If Cao Cao hadn't appeared here, all these things would have belonged to him.
However, he had to be more optimistic. Once he became stronger, he didn't know how many benefits he would get from Cao Aman.
Even so, what was the harm in giving the other party a little taste of sweetness first?
Since Zhang Tian was so anxious, Cao Cao only said that there was no need to be so anxious.
Then, he sent his subordinates to deal with the matter.
The carriage of treasures was quickly registered and divided equally between the two parties.
During this period, Zhang Tian told him about the ambush on Bo Cai's camp in detail.
Of course, this so-called detail was too exaggerated.
For example, Zhang Tian didn't plan for a long time, but was eager to make a contribution. He attacked before he found out the enemy's strength.
The result was better.
For example, he had brought a total of seven hundred cavalrymen this time, leaving only a hundred people to maintain law and order in Chenliu. However, he didn't expect that after the first battle, he would lose more than half of his troops and gain a total of 200 soldiers.
Fortunately, he had some gains after bravely killing the enemy and killed the enemy general He Yi.
"Aiya, Brother Meng De, you don't know how much effort and hard work I put in to eliminate the evils of the country and bring peace to the people.”Zhang Tian Tian complained.
Hearing that there were only 200 cavalrymen left, Cao Cao felt that it was a pity. If it was just this amount of soldiers, he would not be able to open his mouth. It was not worth it to exchange this amount of soldiers for a huge favor.
"Sir, we're done here." At this moment, the registrar walked over and reported to Cao Cao.
Seeing that the treasures had been divided, Cao Cao felt a little apologetic. Seeing that Zhang Tian had said so much, he patted his shoulder and said,"
"Ba Yuan, don't worry. You've made a great contribution this time. I'll definitely report some details to the Imperial Court.”
"Oh, thank you in advance, Brother Meng De.”Zhang Tian bowed with his hands folded in front of his chest as if he was flattered.
Seeing Zhang Tian being so sensible, giving him credit, money, and even wine, Cao Cao thought to himself," I must report this matter to Huangfu Song when I get back. After all, it's beneficial for me and I can make others owe me a favor. Why not?"
Zhang Tian knew that it would be good for Cao Cao if he reported himself. Besides, he was too lenient on others. It should be a matter of course for him to have a name on the merit book.
Seeing the development of time and the appearance of various heroes, it was time for him to seek his own reputation.
There was nothing he could do about it. Without a reputation or a position, how could he make people believe in him? How could he recruit talents and lay the foundation for great things in the future?
The two of them had their own thoughts, but their goal was the same. After the two armies divided the treasures, they merged together and returned.
All of Bocai's camps had been occupied by Huangfu Song and the others, and they had become the new gathering grounds for the Imperial Court's army.
Zhu Xiong had also returned from the front line. This time, he had pursued in the wrong direction and had not gained much. He had only captured some scattered Yellow Turban soldiers, so everyone had placed their hopes on Cao Cao's journey.
Although he had hope, thinking of Bo Cai's strength, even Cao Cao would not be able to gain an advantage against him.
Knowing Cao Cao's true strength, Huangfu Song could only wait for his men to return and prepare to attack Runan.
"Lord Cao is back."
The voice of the guard outside the tent rang out. Then, a short and fat man in armor walked into the tent. He was not handsome, but he had an extraordinary aura.
The newcomer was Cao Cao. As soon as he entered the tent, Huangfu Song, Zhu He, and Zhang Miao all looked at him.
Although they knew that there was no hope for both sides, when they saw that Cao Cao had returned, especially when he was still walking like a dragon and tiger, everyone still focused their gazes on him, hoping for some good news.
As soon as Cao Cao entered the tent, he took in everyone's expressions and smiled,"
"Milords, I didn't manage to catch up to Bo Cai this time, but I did manage to kill the enemy's general, He Yi. This is his corpse.”
After saying that, he raised a wooden box with a human head high up in the air.
When they heard that they couldn't catch up to Bo Cai, everyone was a little disappointed. However, when they heard that He Yi had been killed, they immediately became excited.
Since they were going to fight with the Yellow Turban bandits, it would naturally be a little difficult for their camp. They had also seen He Yi before and knew that this person had some strength.
He hadn't expected Cao Cao to actually kill a general of the enemy. It seemed like this trip wasn't in vain.
"Hurry up and present it."
Huangfu Song, who was higher than the Chief Monk, said anxiously after hearing Cao Cao's words.
Immediately, a bodyguard took the wooden box and brought it to Huangfu Song. He opened it impatiently and saw He Yi's head lying there in perfect condition.
"That's right, it's this person." After seeing the head, Huangfu Song said with certainty.
When he looked at Cao Cao, he was filled with admiration.
Seeing Huangfu Song looking at him with such a gaze, Cao Cao began to regret. Why wasn't he the one who killed this person?
It seemed that Zhang Tian was going to make a contribution this time.
However, thinking about it, even if Zhang Tian had made a contribution, he was still the biggest beneficiary.
He calmed down a little. Without waiting for Huangfu Song to ask anything, he took the initiative to say,
"Lord Zuo Zhonglang, I've already found the person who set the fire and killed the Yellow Turban bandits.”
Huangfu Song, who was originally about to praise Cao Cao, heard that he had found the person responsible for setting the fire. His expression immediately became excited as he asked,
"Oh, which lord?"
