Of the five hundred elite cavalrymen in Wolong Village, more than one hundred horses were lost.

But later when Zhuge Liang captured Cao Ren, he intercepted all of his war horses.

There are more than two thousand horses in total.

Wolong Village received one thousand, and the rest was left to Old Man Huang's Deng County Army.

As for the soldiers who left Wolong Village, all of them returned, and most of them were not seriously injured.

After all, there was no fighting along the way, they just ran away.

The final encirclement and suppression of the Cao army infantry outside Bowangpo was also a one-sided massacre.

Those Cao soldiers were in a panic and couldn't even break their defenses with their weapons.

In other words, many cotton coats were cut.

Only Deng Zhong...

He sprained his ankle when he first got on the horse, so when they were escaping, he and Zhuge Liang were always in the front of the carriage.

When he went to help pour the kerosene inside Bowangpo, he slipped on the kerosene-soaked ground and dislocated his arm.

He had no part in the attack on Cao Hong's camp.

Deng Zhong also became the laughing stock of the entire village.

Deng Zhong's wife didn't care: "As long as the head of the family comes back safely, everyone just laughs and there's no ill will."

"Hmph, those bastards!" Deng Zhong said and laughed.

Then he took his wife's hand and asked, "How's the baby? Did he kick you? Is your belly bigger? Has the baby gained weight?"

Deng Zhong's wife put Deng Zhou's hand on her belly and said, "How long do you think he's been out? How could he grow up so quickly? But sometimes he kicks people. He just kicked me. Feel it."

Deng Zhong soon felt the movement twice, squatting on his wife's belly and said, "Boy, don't hurt your mother by kicking her, or I'll whip you."

"What are you talking about!" Deng Zhong was hit on the arm.

Those who have wives in Wolong Village are basically busy coaxing their wives when they come back, or showing off the spoils they got this time.

Those who didn't have wives looked at Huang Zhong eagerly.

"I..." Huang Zhong glared. He really thought he was a matchmaking agency!

But when you think about the fact that they are all great contributors this time, your arrogance will diminish.

"Actually... there are quite a few girls from ordinary families in Deng County who want to marry in Wolong Village, but since your village matchmakers can't even get in, what can they do?"

This is a problem, Wolong Village is basically closed.

It is difficult for outsiders to come in.

We can't ask those who are not married to go to the village entrance to meet the matchmaker every day, right?

Zhuge Tian was too lazy to take care of these matters, so he left it to Zhuge Liang and Huang Zhong to discuss on their own.

He called Liao Hua over and asked, "Has the messenger returned yet?"

"It should be these two days."

Liao Hua asked curiously, "Are we really going to release... and sell them?"

"What else can we do? Those guys look tough, and if we really kill them, especially Cao Hong, I'm afraid that by the beginning of next spring, Cao Cao will not attack Rang County, but Deng County."

This time, more than ten middle and senior officers of Cao's army were captured.

The highest among them is definitely Cao Hong.

Li Dian and Le Jin were also found in the end. Li Dian was lucky enough not to be seriously injured.

Le Jin was burned.

If Zhuge Tian hadn't used burn medicine in time, the person would probably have died.

Liu Biao also knew that Deng County had made the greatest contribution this time, so when Huang Zhong later took the three men to Deng County, he didn't say much, but just said that no one could be allowed to die.

Liu Biao advocated defense, so he did not want to become a mortal enemy with Cao Cao.

These people cannot be killed, so in the end we can only release them, and at most we can ask for some benefits.

Huang Zhong made great contributions this time, so the task of making profits was tacitly given to him.

Huang Zhong thought about it and handed the matter over to Zhuge Tian.

The main reason is that I think Zhuge Tian is good at doing business.

After waiting for another two days, the messenger finally returned. Not only did he return with his own people, he also brought a caravan with him.

"Han Xing, this Cao Cao is really generous. After receiving our price letter, he immediately prepared all the things and sent them over."

Liao Hua looked at the convoy of things and smiled widely.

"Yeah!" Zhuge Tian sighed, "The scale is small, and the price is low!"

Cao Cao's move was not only because Cao Hong, Li Dian and Le Jin were indeed important, but also to win over the hearts of the people.

This was to tell his generals that no matter what conditions the other party put forward, he would exchange the people back.

"Han Xing, do you think this is a way to make a fortune?" Liao Hua's eyes gleamed with gold. "How about we capture Cao Cao's generals and sell them to Cao Cao?"

Zhuge Tian looked at him strangely and patted his shoulder: "It's a shame not to be the King of the Mountain Clan."

"Do you think it's feasible too?"

"That's impossible!" Gan Ning said, "The Cao army is not stupid. Can we capture their main general every time?"

"Why not listen to my idea?"

"What bad idea do you have?" Liao Hua was unconvinced.

"Isn't Xu Da Ge actually General Cao? Let's offer him a high price and sell him back to him, and then he can come back on his own!"

"Do you think he can find a way back?" Liao Hua gave Gan Ning a contemptuous look.

"You two, come and practice!" Xu Chu said in a muffled voice.

Seeing some of the clowns going out for training, Zhuge Liang said to Zhuge Tian, ​​"Brother, don't forget what happened last time."

"Last time? Do you mean the time when Xu Zhu was taken back?"

"That's right. This person hiding in the dark, do you think he's going to deal with us or Cao Cao?"

"Of course it's Cao Cao!"

No matter how confident Zhuge Tian was, he would not think that any hidden force would go to great lengths to deal with a small village like their Wolong Village.

"After what happened last time, Cao Cao will definitely conduct a thorough investigation within his ranks. He might even find some rats." Zhuge Liang frowned and said, "Maybe everyone thinks they should just quiet down now."

"But did you notice that the convoy transporting supplies this time had too few guards?"

"The world isn't peaceful right now. The battle in Rang County has calmed down the bandits in the area, but these guards are taking too much of a risk."

"I think there are only two possibilities. Someone behind the scenes doesn't want Cao Hong and Li Dianle to return."

"That makes sense!" Zhuge Tian thought about the convoy that had just arrived. Apart from the driver, there were only dozens of guards.

The price he offered this time was not low, as there were only a few guards for all these valuables.

If they were robbed on the way, that would be the best. We would not let Cao Hong go. Maybe Cao Cao would think that their Wolong Village was robbing each other and become enemies.

If they were not robbed on the way, then when Cao Hong and his companions returned, it was very likely that the person behind the scenes would directly attack them, and it would be difficult to resist with so many guards.

"So I think we can really make some money from Cao Cao."

Zhuge Liang said shyly.
