    "That's enough. But I have three requests."

    Wenhan didn't care what Cao Cao said, but said calmly.  When Cao Cao heard this, his expression suddenly changed, and he wanted to speak again.  But Wenhan called Guan Yu with his eyes and signaled Guan Yu to take Cao Cao away.

    "Mengde, you are tired, go back to your room and rest first. I am sensible, thank you for your concern."

    Cao Cao was being dragged away by Guan Yu, still muttering that Wen Han was ignorant and wasting his efforts, and that He Jin was ruthless and selfish.  After Guan Yu dragged him to the room and closed the door, the sound gradually died down.  The Xiahou brothers followed behind, and Cao Cao called them to come over and help.  But the Xiahou brothers did not, because they understood that Cao Cao could not offend He Jin at this time, otherwise it would be difficult in the future.

    Cao Cao¡¯s voice gradually disappeared.  Wen Han bowed deeply to He Jin.

    "General He, Meng De was a bit rude just now. It's just because he and I have a deep relationship, as close as blood. General He, please forget what happened just now. I will definitely gain merit in this expedition against the Qiang and Hu, and I will do my best and do my best.  "

    He Jin did not expect that Cao Cao, who usually had clear interests, would do such a stupid thing to offend him. It seemed that Cao Cao had unknowingly developed feelings for Wen Bufan.

    He Jin shook his head, a little sad.  Seeing Wen Han looking at him with some eagerness, waiting for him to say to forgive Cao Cao, He Jin immediately waved his hand.

    "That's all. If Cao A doesn't know the general situation, why should I be as high as him? I just heard from you that there are three conditions. You tell me, except that the troop strength is limited to five thousand, I will try my best to cooperate with the rest."

    Wenhan pondered for a while and expressed his thoughts one by one.

    "The first requirement is that among the five thousand soldiers and horses, I want three thousand elite cavalry. General He cannot be vague about these three thousand people. They must all be soldiers with strong bodies and excellent equestrian skills. The Qiang and Hu cavalry are not only brave, but also powerful.  It's amazingly fast. Without an elite cavalry, I can't compete with them. Besides, it's not about having many troops, but it's about the elite. I don't want to lose my life in this expedition against the Qiang and Hu, so General He must cooperate with the rest.  The two thousand are preferably fast-footed infantry, responsible for cleaning the battlefield, escorting baggage and other trivial matters."

    Wenhan¡¯s first request was to cut He Jin¡¯s flesh severely with a big knife.  In marching and fighting, cavalry is the strongest unit in terms of mobility and attack power. It is often used as a vanguard unit and a weapon to kill the enemy.  However, because horses are expensive and equestrian skills are difficult to learn, building a cavalry often requires a lot of energy and money. Such harsh conditions greatly limit the number of cavalry.

    He Jin only had 30,000 cavalry under his command. Wen Han wanted 3,000 from him as soon as he opened his mouth, and they also wanted elite cavalry.  He Jin's face was gloomy, looking a little embarrassed.

    "General He, I have a new work recently. It is a famous poker. It is a novel gambling instrument with many ways to play. If you dedicate it to the Holy One, I guarantee that within three years, the Holy One will never get tired of playing it."

    He Jin¡¯s eyes lit up after hearing this.  In his mind, Wenhan's new works never disappoint him, but this was the first time that Wenhan praised it so highly.  Wenhan is not a frivolous person who speaks unrealistically.  He actually said that this poker must be very charming.

    Later, He Jin thought that if Wen Han lost his life, no one would invent some novel toys for him in the future and ask him to offer them to the Holy One to make Long Yan happy.  As Wen Han said, there are many ways to play poker. He Jin can teach the Holy One how to play it for a period of time. Indeed, within three years, the Holy One will not get tired of playing it.

    He Jin thought of this, bit his lip, and became determined.

    "Okay, I promise you! You will bring the poker later! How many ways can this poker be played?"

    Wenhan grinned when he saw He Jin agreed.

    "Haha, there are at least a dozen kinds. I will write down the details of how to play them later."

    "Okay, you can state the second and third requests together. But don't be as loud as the first request, otherwise I will not give up the poker."

    Wenhan found it funny when he saw He Jin's face, which was so painful that he almost twitched.  He nodded immediately and said.

    "The remaining two requests are very simple. The second request is that I want to find official positions for a few people. They are all my capable officers. They have been with me for more than a year and they are still in vain. Regarding this, I have  I feel quite guilty. As for the last request, it is the simplest, that is, I want these five thousand soldiers and horses to be free from impurities and must obey my orders absolutely."

    Listening to Wenhan's request, He Jin's frown relaxed slightly, and he breathed a deep sigh of relief. He was afraid that Wenhan would make changes, so he immediately agreed.  Afterwards, Wenhan gave He Jin the list and official positions of several people. He Jin read it and found that there was no problem. He said readily that he would issue documents immediately after returning and let them take office immediately.

     As for Wen Han's third request, it was what best suited He Jin's wishes. Originally, He Jin thought that these soldiers were going to die, and he never thought of placing any cronies inside.  Although there are some noble sons from wealthy families in his army who want to make meritorious deeds, they are all extremely skilled and will never join the three thousand death squads.

    After the two discussed it, Wenhan got what he wanted, and He Jin also arranged things properly.  Later, Wenhan went back to his room and took out a deck of playing cards carved from wood. The playing cards were cut very evenly and delicately, and they didn't look bulky.

    Wenhan spent half an hour writing down many types of poker methods such as bullfighting, land hoeing, landlord fighting, tractors, Texas Hold'em and so on.  He Jin watched from the side, learning with interest, and playing with the wooden playing cards for his own entertainment.  After Wenhan finished writing, he solemnly put the scroll into his sleeve and regarded it as a treasure.

    After that, He Jin and Wen Han looked at each other for a long time, with some complicated expressions in their eyes, including reluctance, guilt, anger, regret, etc.

    Wenhan still faced it with that plain smile.

    "Wen Bufan, do you blame me?"

    Looking at Wen Han¡¯s smiling face, He Jin couldn¡¯t control his mind and asked subconsciously.

    "Why should we blame the general? Could it be that the general believes that if I am an extraordinary scholar, I will surely die at the hands of the Qiang and Hu?"

    Wen Han's confident attitude made He Jin shut his mouth and remained silent for a long time.

    "Wen Bufan, if you can really come back victorious, I will definitely reward you greatly, and I promise to treat you like flesh and blood in my body and no one can touch you. This is my promise to you."

    Wenhan was stunned when he heard this.  With flesh and blood in his body, He Jin actually wanted to recognize him as his adopted son.  Wen Han was a little flattered and said some modest words. Later, after the two of them had a heart-to-heart talk, He Jin left Cao Mansion with a somewhat calm expression.

    Not long after He Jin left, a servant from the Cai Mansion came in.  Wenhan heard that Cai Yong and Wang Yun had something important to ask him to come over. Xu Huang happened to come over and was free, so he and Wenhan went to Cai Mansion.

    Wenhan had just walked into Cai Mansion. Cai Yan, wearing a green silk and yellow silk dress, stood there, beautiful, with countless emotions in her eyes, staring at Wenhan.  Xu Huang wisely walked into the Cai Mansion first, leaving Wen Han there with Cai Yan.  The two looked at each other for a long time, but neither one spoke first.

    "Master Wen, do you want to go on an expedition?"

    There is some sadness in Cai Yan's beautiful face, and her soft voice sounds like an oriole's call.

    Wenhan was stunned by Cai Yan's beauty. He was speechless and could only nod.

    "This is the jade pendant left by the little girl's mother who passed away. Although it is not valuable, it can keep people safe. Mr. Wen is in danger now, so I accept this jade pendant, hoping to keep Mr. Wen safe."

    Cai Yan walked slowly like the wind and flowers. Wen Han's heartbeat kept accelerating. Knowing how valuable it was, Cai Yan didn't dare accept the relic of his mother and wanted to postpone it.

    "This is the little girl's wish. I hope Mr. Wen can accept it."

    Cai Yan looked at Wen Han with pearls in her eyes. Wen Han's heart trembled. He didn't dare to delay any more and immediately accepted it with great care.  Cai Yan smiled when she saw Wen Han accept it, and it was so beautiful that it made people's hearts beat faster.

    Wenhan looked dull, and his silly expression made Cai Yan laugh again.  At this time, Cai Yong and Wang Yun saw Xu Huang coming, but Wen Han had not entered the house for a long time and was walking over.  Cai Yan heard the noise and knew that Cai Yong was coming. His face turned red and he said a few words to Wen Han, then went back to the room and hid.

    "Why don't you come in, extraordinary disciple? Come in quickly. I and the prince have treasures to give to you to help you annihilate the enemy and win." Cai Yong saw Wen Han confused in the front yard from a distance and couldn't help but urge him.

    Hearing the urging, Wenhan came to his senses and quickly entered the house.  Cai Yong and Wang Yun sat down in the hall. After Cai Yong introduced the bow of slaughter, Wen Han felt grateful and knelt down to take the bow.  Later, Wang Yun asked Wenhan again about He Jin's arrangements for Wenhan's expedition, and Wenhan described it in detail.

    After hearing this, Cai Yong and Wang Yun looked a little unhappy and frowned.  Wang Yun even scolded He Jin a few times.

    "My extraordinary disciple, are you sure?"

    Cai Yong asked with concern. Wen Han smiled lightly and looked at Xu Huang standing beside him. Although the two of them didn't know what the future was like, they were fearless.

    "Although I am not sure, my disciple has a plan in his heart and is not afraid. The soldiers are not more, but the elite. This time General He gave me 3,000 elite cavalry, and I also trained 600 black wind cavalry in Jie County, a total of  Three thousand six hundred cavalry. This group of men and horses belongs to my family. They have fought with me for several battles without losing a single victory. When the time comes, I will incorporate them into them and make them their commanders to train and teach this group of three thousand elite cavalry.  The combat power will be greatly increased.

    Although those Qiang and Hu cavalry are famous for being brave and good at fighting, that happened decades ago. These Qiang and Hu cavalry have not experienced anything in decades.In a fight, his strength will definitely not be as brave as he was back then.  If you dare to attack this time, I will make them look good and pay the price with countless flesh and blood!  "

    Wenhan's eyes were cold and murderous.  Seeing that Cai Yong and Wang Yun were overjoyed, Wen Han's attitude of being fearless and murderous towards foreigners was exactly what they wanted.

    Wang Yun stood up and clapped his hands and said, "Okay! Extraordinary disciple! The murderous intention is so fierce and urgent! How can I not have a divine horse to mount? I will give you a black horse riding on the clouds for you to come and go."  Like wind and lightning, it is easy to kill Qiang and Hu foreigners. However, this horse has a fierce temper. You have to tame it yourself. You can tell me first that this horse is the descendant of Wu Zhui, the overlord of Western Chu. He is an ordinary person.  It cannot be tamed.¡±
