"General Ding, what do you mean by this?"

Cao Cao, Chun, Yu Qiong and other generals turned their heads to look at Ding Yuan.

"This ......"

Ding Yuan actually didn't know Ding Xiao's intentions, and he was a little unable to answer for a while.

"I'll tell you."

Ding Xiao hugged his fist and said, "Dong Zhuo's intention this time, I think everyone understands it." Looking at the world now, Dong Zhuo is afraid of only my father Ding Yuan and my brother-in-law Lu Bu. If we give him these 40,000 horses, I believe that there will be no one in the world who can compete with them. ”

After a pause, he apologized, "So I'm sorry! In order to support the Han family and the people of the world, we must bring these 40,000 horses back to Bingzhou! ”

Then he added, "But rest assured, if you are willing to return to the state with us, these horses will be returned to your rule." ”

"Haha, I see what you mean."

Cao Cao laughed, "You are right, Dong Zhuo is strong, we must not give these 40,000 horses to him again, so I raise my hands in favor of this proposal." ”

But immediately, his voice changed, "However, because Dong Zhuo is powerful, I think that at present, with the strength of the Bingzhou army, even if these 40,000 horses are added, they will not be able to defeat Dong Zhuo's 200,000 Liangzhou iron cavalry." ”

"In my opinion, we should unite the heroes of the world and raise troops to defeat Dong Zhuo together, so that we can succeed!" Cao Cao's eyes lit up and he finally said.

"Not bad."

"It makes sense."

The generals nodded in agreement.

Even Ding Yuan nodded and said, "It should be so." ”

But Ding Xiao understood that Cao Cao said so much because he wanted to leave, and he wanted to leave with his troops.

Naturally, he couldn't let Cao Cao fulfill his wish.

"What Brother Meng De said is extremely true."

Ding Xiao smiled slightly, and said to Ding Yuan, "Father, since Brother Cao has this opinion, we must support it!" You might as well repair a few letters and ask Brother Cao to take them to contact various places, so that you can make an appointment with the heroes of various counties in the future and conspire for great things! ”

"Good! I'm going to write now! ”

Ding Yuan agreed, and immediately asked someone to get pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and began to write hard.

Seeing this, Cao Cao's expression suddenly became unsightly.

He originally wanted to use this as a name to take away his subordinates, return to his hometown to recruit soldiers, and wait for an opportunity to start an incident.

But he didn't expect that Ding Xiao would say such an arrangement before he could speak.

This completely disrupted his plan, so that he had to have a formal showdown with the Ding family's father and son, "General Ding, Ding Gongzi, in fact, I have long planned to resign, but I don't want to go to Merge State, do you think you can let me take my people to leave first?" ”

Without waiting for Ding Yuan's father and son to speak, he hurriedly added, "Don't worry, I, Cao Mengde, am ashamed to be with Dong Zhuo, and I will never lead troops to him." ”

Hearing this, Ding Yuan stopped writing and looked at Cao Cao with a frown, while the other generals had bright eyes and looked at Ding Yuan's father and son, waiting for their reply.

In fact, the generals did not have a deep relationship with Ding Yuan and Lu Bu, and they were all a little reluctant to go to Bingzhou, and it happened that Cao Cao had this proposal, which provided them with a new possibility.

"I believe that Brother Meng De's personality will definitely not take refuge in Dong Thief."

Ding Xiao smiled and said, "But I'm sorry, you can only take away twenty cronies, and the rest of the people can't move!" ”

"What?!"

Cao Cao's face changed wildly, "How dare you do this?" ”

The rest of the generals were also taken aback, and they released their cultivation one after another, and looked at Ding Xiao with an unkind face.

"Why wouldn't I dare?!"

Ding Xiao asked sharply, "My brother-in-law was ordered by the emperor to suppress the bandits, and if everyone let you take them away, what will he do to confront the Baibo army?" ”

"This ......"

Cao Cao was speechless.

Because what Ding Xiao said was right, whether the Xiyuan Army was taken away by Lu Bu or brought back by Bao Hong, they were all famous, and there was no legitimate reason for replacing them.

What's more, if he turns his face at this time, it is estimated that it will be difficult to get out of the big tent.

"Ladies and gentlemen, there is one thing that everyone needs to distinguish clearly."

Ding Xiao said again, "That is, a soldier is a soldier and a general, and the two cannot be confused!" For the West Park Army, there is only one option - it is to go back to the state with us! Whoever wants to get involved in the West Garden Army is the enemy of our Ding family! ”

What he said was extremely domineering, which shocked Ding Yuan's expression, and the latter immediately waved his hand, and a group of guards drew their swords in their hands and surrounded the generals.

At this moment, Lu Bu happened to return to the big tent, and when he heard this, he immediately nodded and said, "Not bad!" I don't think anyone dares to be presumptuous?! ”

The generals looked at Lu Bu and then at Dian Wei, and finally reluctantly put away their momentum and stood aside in a muffled voice.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this matter is related to the future of the Han Dynasty, my Ding family has to do this, how offended, please Haihan."

Ding Xiao hugged his fists and bowed, and then said with relief, "But don't worry, whether you go or stay is up to you, and we will not force it." ”

"Is that true?"

Cao Cao looked up and asked.

"No lie!"

Ding Elimination Guarantee.

"That's good."

Cao Cao deserved to be a hero, and without the slightest hesitation, he made a decision on the spot, "I am willing to take my cronies back to my hometown to recruit troops, and when he swears with General Ding, we will discuss Dong Zhuo together!" ”

“…… All right. ”

Ding Xiao understood that even if he forcibly left Cao Cao, he would not be able to keep the other party's heart, so it was better to let him go and wait for a showdown on the battlefield in the future.

After agreeing, he turned his head and called a sergeant, "Bring the pen and ink, and ask General Cao to write down the names of his cronies." ”

"Ding Gongzi, what do you mean by this?" Cao Cao frowned and asked.

"Oh, since Brother Meng De is determined to leave, there is no need to alarm the soldiers, lest the army will be unstable and will be exploited by that Dong Zhuo." Ding Xiao explained with a smile.

"Haha, Ding Gongzi is thoughtful, he is really different from ordinary people, Cao admires it!" Cao Cao's eyes were full of surprise, and he sighed secretly, then took the pen and ink and began to write.

At this time, four more people stepped forward and said, "We are willing to follow General Cao's example and lead our cronies away." ”

"Yes."

Ding Xiao just glanced at it slightly, then nodded in agreement, and then ignored their departure, but turned his head to look at Zhao Rong, the only assistant lieutenant in the field who did not express his position.

"General Zhao, what about you?"

"The last general is willing to follow General Lu into the state!" Zhao Rong bowed.

"Good! Ha ha! ”

Lu Bu was overjoyed.

The eighth lieutenant of Xiyuan left five at once, only he and Zhang Yang were left, and now that there was suddenly one more Zhao Rong, he was naturally a little excited, "Don't worry, follow me, I will live up to you in the future!" ”

"The general doesn't have to be polite."

Zhao Rong grinned and stood sideways.

At this time, the three armies had already finished eating, and Ding Yuan Lu Bu ordered at the same time to order their respective soldiers and horses to set off and go to Bingzhou.

And Ding Xiao chose to stay, preparing to sneak into Beijing with Dian Wei and do a few big things.

However, after saying goodbye to Ding Yuan and the others, he saw that Lu Bu was a little depressed, and knew that the other party was clearly still angry about the departure of Cao Cao and others, so he immediately stepped forward and called Lu Bu, and finally comforted him.

"Why does brother-in-law have to do this? Except for Cao Cao, the other four people are useless, and leaving now is a good thing for us. ”

"Oh? Why did Brother Xiao say this? Lu Buqi said.

Bao Hong knew that Dong Zhuo was a person, and he insisted on receiving the order, obviously not greedy enough. Xia Mu and Bao Hong are familiar with each other, they are a raccoon dog, not worth mentioning! And Feng Fang was originally the son-in-law of the eunuch, and he was not in the same family as us, so naturally he couldn't talk about going together. As for Chun Yuqiong, he was originally good friends with Yuan Shao, and if he left this time, he would definitely vote under Yuan Shao's account. ”

After Ding Xiao finished analyzing them one by one, he smiled and said, "These people have different intentions, if you leave them, you have to worry about them stabbing them in the back in the future, it is better to let them go now and end up clean." ”

"Makes sense."

Lu Bu nodded thoughtfully, and then sighed, "It's a pity that they left suddenly, and they also took away a lot of generals, leaving a lot of positions vacated for my subordinates at once." ”

"If my brother-in-law feels that his generals are not enough, he can boldly promote talents."

Ding Xiao suggested, "For example, Brother Zhang's subordinate Mu Shun can be trusted!" ”

For Ding Xiao, low force and lack of experience are not a big deal, and the most important thing is the word reliable!

"Okay, I've got it!"

Lu Bu nodded, and then solemnly hugged his fists and said, "Brother Xiao, your lurking Jingshi is extremely dangerous this time, you must be more careful." ”

"Don't worry."

Dropping this sentence, Ding Xiao resolutely rode his horse and turned around, and took Dian Wei on the way back to Beijing.
