The strongest devouring system in the Three Kingdoms

However, Chen Er could only think these words in his heart and did not say them aloud.

"However, I still hope that today's events will not affect your views on the Bingzhou Army. You two are both rare talents. If you can stay in the Bingzhou Army, I will personally petition the court to grant you official positions and assign you the elite troops of the Bingzhou Army."

Perhaps realizing something from Chen Er's words, Ding Yuan understood that these two young men could simply leave and seek better opportunities elsewhere. After all, their talents were undeniable, and they would definitely find a place to use them. Ding Yuan didn't want them to leave the Bingzhou army, so he spared no expense.

This treatment was second only to Dian Wei in the Bingzhou army. However, it did not sway Chen Er and Zhang Liao.

They exchanged a glance, and Chen Er understood Zhang Liao's meaning from his eyes.

"I'm sorry, sir, we do want to stay here, but I'm afraid we can't command the elite troops of Bingzhou that you mentioned."

Chen Er's words were loaded with meaning, and Ding Yuan immediately understood that Chen Er had seen through his little scheme.

So what if they could command the elite troops of Bingzhou? The highest commander of the Bingzhou elite troops was Ding Yuan, followed by Dian Wei, and then them. In that case, wouldn't they still be Dian Wei's subordinates?! That would be the most frustrating thing for them.

Ding Yuan knew this was why he spoke like that, but now Chen Er had directly pointed out his thoughts.

"Which army do you want to join?" Ding Yuan didn't have high hopes. He was willing to make more concessions as long as the two young men were willing to stay in the Bingzhou army.

"We two want to incorporate the three hundred local militia we brought into General Gao Shun's elite troops! And we two are willing to serve as General Gao Shun's adjutants!"

To Ding Yuan's surprise, Chen Er actually chose to join the Trapped Camp!

Ding Yuan frowned, somewhat confused about Chen Er's intentions. In his view, while the Trapped Camp was elite, its numbers were only seven or eight hundred, hardly a decisive force. Chen Er had given up the opportunity to command several thousand men, choosing instead the Trapped Camp!?

What was he thinking? Was it because Gao Shun helped them both today that they felt Gao Shun was someone they could date, and that's why they made that decision?

Chen Er noticed Ding Yuan's confusion, but he remained silent.

Some things don't need explanation; time will prove them right.

Ding Yuan, a soldier who had spent his life on the battlefield, was well aware of the principle that quality is more important than quantity. However, he was unaware of what kind of elite troops Chen Er from the future was confident he could train!

Moreover, is there really a limit to the number of people? Chen Er couldn't help but smile to himself.

Chaos is imminent, and Ding Yuan will be killed by Dian Wei sooner or later. When that time comes, out of consideration for Lü Lingqi's life-saving grace, he might tell Lü Lingqi in advance, but he would never tell Ding Yuan directly.

If Ding Yuan dies, the Bingzhou army will be in chaos, and who will be able to stop Chen Er from growing powerful?

Dian Wei? He's no good! When chaos erupts in the future, Chen Er will surely drive Dian Wei out of Bingzhou!

Human nature is strange; sometimes, even the smallest things can be remembered forever.

It was late at night, and Zhang Liao and Chen Er stayed overnight at the governor's mansion at Ding Yuan's urging.

The two woke up very early the next morning. Just as they were about to ask Ding Yuan for a letter to go to the Trapped Camp to find Gao Shun, an uninvited guest came to their door.

"I heard about what happened last night. I can't believe I missed such a good show. I never expected that you two big oafs could make Dian Wei lose face so badly. For the sake of you two making him lose face, I'll let bygones be bygones for your previous disrespect!"

Who else but Lü Lingqi could speak to Zhang Liao and Chen Er like that?

At this moment, she was no longer the angry woman she left yesterday; she was all smiles, sweeter than if she had eaten honey.

Why was Lü Lingqi so happy that Dian Wei had been humiliated?! Chen Er couldn't help but feel curious. He had always known that Lü Lingqi disliked Dian Wei, but surely not to this extent?

Zhang Liao felt a headache coming on whenever he saw Lü Lingqi, so he pretended not to hear what she said. Seeing this, Chen Er had no choice but to speak:

“Miss Lü, we made Dian Wei lose face yesterday, but you should also know that we offended all the important figures in Bingzhou yesterday. It seems that we are even more unlucky than Dian Wei.”

No matter how much he disliked Ding Yuan, he couldn't bring himself to be angry with Lü Lingqi and Chen Er. After all, she had saved Zhang Liao and Chen Er's lives.

"Come on, you two! You're really getting the benefits and still acting innocent! The whole of Bingzhou is buzzing about this. Those officials were practically sneaking over to fawn over you two last night. If you two hadn't stayed at the governor's mansion, you'd probably be exhausted just dealing with those officials!"

Lu Lingqi was in high spirits, a stark contrast to yesterday. Judging from her jubilant appearance, Chen Er could easily imagine how much she disliked Dian Wei.

But if what she said is true, then it will be quite interesting. Chen Er is curious to see what Zhang Yang is like now.

Is he already filled with remorse?

"Miss Lü is too kind. My brother and I are just ordinary people. How could we possibly disturb those important figures?" Although Chen Er said this, the smile on his lips betrayed his true thoughts.

After all, being looked down upon and humiliated is a terrible feeling. What in the world could be more satisfying than playing dumb to outsmart those who look down on you and giving them a resounding slap in the face?

"Hmph, you, you're usually so quiet, but you really come through at a crucial moment." Lü Lingqi looked at Chen Er with a smile, but at that moment she suddenly noticed Zhang Liao, who had been silent all along:

"Hey, you're really strange. Why aren't you saying anything? Are you showing me no respect at all?"

Lu Lingqi said with some dissatisfaction.

Zhang Liao was somewhat helpless. He waved his hand, and Chen Er immediately understood, then said to Lü Lingqi:

"Wen Yuan was tired yesterday and his energy was depleted, so he didn't feel like talking much. Please don't take offense, Miss Lü."

If it were anyone else, Chen Er naturally wouldn't explain, but this person is Lü Lingqi.
