The capital of Wei State, Yecheng.
Xiahou Dun and others traveled non-stop, day and night, and finally arrived at Yecheng on the third day.
After entering Yecheng, Xiahou Dun didn't even return home. He didn't care that it was already late at night and forced his way into the Wei Palace.
Although the soldiers tried to stop him in every possible way, no one could stop Xiahou Dun.
In desperation, he could only ask someone to wake up Cao Cao.
But Cao Cao was most taboo about being disturbed and seeing other people while sleeping.
Finally, after paying the life of a servant, Cao Cao appeared in front of Xiahou Dun angrily.
"Yuan Rang, you are too presumptuous!"
Cao Cao didn't care that Xiahou Dun and others had just returned, and the hands pointing at him were trembling.
"Do you know that Yuan Fu has been serving Gu for ten years?"
"Now, you have lost your life like this!"
As he spoke, Cao Cao covered his forehead and started sobbing slightly.
Xiahou Dun was helpless.
It was obviously Cao Cao who killed someone, but he still had to be blamed.
But the matter was urgent, and Xiahou Dun couldn't care less about arguing about the life and death of a villain.
"King Wei, I have something important to report. It's extremely urgent!"
Cao Cao frowned, but his anger dissipated a lot.
He knew very well that Xiahou Dun was a man who would not make trouble unreasonably.
"What's the matter?"
Xiahou Dun quickly answered.
"A great event that is invincible in the world!"
"What!"
Cao Cao exclaimed and turned to look at Cao Ren for confirmation.
"Zixiao, is it true?"
Cao Ren nodded heavily.
"Yes, it's true!"
At this time, Cao Cao was completely awake.
"You guys come with me."
Just after taking a step, Cao Cao looked at the guard again.
"Invite Military Advisor Guo over!"
"As you command!"
Xiahou Dun did not let everyone go.
Except for Xia Houyuan, Cao Ren, Cao Zhang, and Cao Zhen, all the clan members were driven away.
Not long after, the five people followed Cao Cao to the meeting hall.
"I heard that your results in this martial arts competition were good."
Guo Jia didn't come, and Cao Cao didn't get down to business immediately.
After all, even if he is truly invincible, he won't be able to do so in this moment.
"How did King Wei know about it?"
Xiahou Dun was a little surprised.
He clearly did not send anyone to report the news.
"Wei Jian is here."
Cao Cao didn't hide anything.
"What is he here for?"
"Come and demonstrate!"
"What!"
Xiahou Dun was even more puzzled.
Mainly on the last day of the martial arts tournament, Xiahou Dun also saw Wei Jian appearing in Chang'an City.
Cao Cao shook his head helplessly. Seeing this meaning, he also understood that Xiahou Dun and others were still kept in the dark.
"Don't you know it yet? The Xiongnu were completely destroyed by Liu Zhang!"
"From now on, there will be no more Xiongnu in the Hetao area!"
"What!"
At this time, Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Zhang, and Cao Zhen all cried out in surprise.
Xiahou Dun was even more disbelieving.
"When did this happen?"
"Just when you are participating in the tourney."
"This is even more impossible!"
Not only Xiahou Dun didn't believe it, but Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren and four others didn't believe it either.
"King Wei, did you make a mistake?"
Cao Cao snorted coldly.
"Make a mistake? The heads of the Xiongnu Chanyu and the virtuous kings on the left and right have been sent to Gu. How can there be a mistake?"
Xiahou Dun and others looked at each other, shocked and speechless.
The heads have been delivered, so there is absolutely no possibility of misunderstanding.
"hiss...!"
At this moment, Cao Ren took a breath of cold air.
"Could it be that Liu Zhang disappeared for more than ten days?"
"It's impossible. The Xiongnu controlled more than 100,000 people. Chang'an is thousands of miles away from the Hetao. How could it be possible to annihilate the Xiongnu and return in such a short period of time?"
Cao Cao exhaled a sigh of relief.
"Impossible? Haha, I thought it was impossible! But Liu Zhang did it!"
"One hundred thousand Xiongnu cavalry and more than 200,000 Xiongnu subjects were slaughtered by Liu Zhang!"
"With more than 300,000 yuan..."
Before he finished speaking, Cao Cao was interrupted by Xiahou Dun's exclamation.
"I see!"
"what do you know?"
Xiahou Dun's eyes were filled with clarity and enlightenment.
"I know why Liu Zhang sold the heavy cavalry armor to us!"
"Heavy cavalry armor, what is that?"
Xiahou Dun didn't answer, turned his head and shouted outside.
"Bring it in!"
Soon, two soldiers walked in holding two pieces of armor.
"King Wei, this is the heavy cavalry armor! One piece for cavalry and one piece for war horses!"
Cao Cao's eyes lit up and he immediately stepped forward to investigate.
When I put it in my hand, I was immediately stunned.
"This...why is it so light?"
The corners of Xiahou Dun's mouth rose, full of pride.
"King Wei, this is the weapon I call invincible in the world!"
"This is a heavy cavalry armor built by Liu Zhang with all the efforts of the Qin State. It can bear the burden of ordinary war horses!"
"With this set of armor, coupled with Qin's unique saddle and double stirrups, does King Wei still think there is anything strange about the Xiongnu being slaughtered by Liu Zhang?"
Cao Cao held his breath and swallowed a large mouthful of saliva.
indeed so!
Cao Cao had personally tested the news sent back by Xiahou Dun.
Just the bilateral stirrups will increase the combat power several times!
With this set of armor, the Huns are nothing!
Not to mention that the Qin army destroyed the Xiongnu, even if it was the Wei army, destroying the Xiongnu was like killing a chicken!
"Yuan Rang, where did you get this... this treasure?"
Xiahou Dun was even more proud when he saw Cao Cao acting like this.
"King Wei, how much do you think this set of heavy cavalry armor is worth?"
Cao Cao's eyes flashed.
"This this..."
"How can such treasures be valued in gold and silver?"
Xiahou Dun nodded repeatedly, extremely satisfied with Cao Cao's awakening.
"Hahaha, King Wei is really wise!"
"I fought to the death in the martial arts tournament and received a total of 11,600 gold rewards. I have already redeemed them all for this set of armor!"
"How much was exchanged?"
Cao Cao's heart was beating wildly and he looked at Xiahou Dun expectantly.
"Haha, Liu Zhang is an idiot. He said that as long as he is ranked on the Heavenly Ranking, he can exchange it for one gold. We exchanged 11,600 sets!"
"What!"
Cao Cao screamed in shock, unable to believe that this was true.
"Yuan Rang, can you take this seriously?"
"Hahaha, how dare I deceive King Wei about such a big matter?"
Cao Cao was so excited that he grabbed Xiahou Dun's hand.
"Where is the armor I exchanged for!"
"Hahaha, King Wei, don't be anxious!"
Xiahou Dun laughed non-stop and kept looking at Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren.
The latter also kept laughing and felt extremely happy.
This time, Da Gong didn’t run away!
"Yuan Rang, stop showing off!"
Cao Cao was impatient and urged him again.
Xiahou Dun smiled even more and asked Cao Cao directly.
"King Wei, do you want more?"
"What...!"
. . .
