Chapter 457: Wen Ugly's Loyalty
Chapter 457: Wen Ugly's Loyalty
After dealing with Zhang Liao, Lu HaiKong turned his attention to Yu Dian.
Along the way, Lu HaiKong could sense that this guy greatly admired him, so he paid some attention to Yu Dian as well.
Lu HaiKong discovered that although Yu Dian wasn't a historical warrior, his combat strength was quite impressive.
"Please, Governor, grant me your guidance!" Yu Dian held a Guan Dao and took a deep breath as Lu HaiKong's gaze fell upon him.
"To be honest, I don't really like being called 'Governor.' I prefer it when my subordinates call me 'Lord'!"
Upon hearing Lu HaiKong's words, Yu Dian's face lit up with joy. He knelt on one knee and said, "Subordinate Yu Dian, at your service, Lord!"
"Good, come on then. Let me see your martial skills."
Yu Dian nodded excitedly, holding the Guan Dao as he approached.
In reality, Yu Dian's combat strength was slightly higher than Zhang Liao's, but his overall combat power was a bit weaker. This was mainly due to his cultivation method; being from a humble background and not a historical warrior, he lacked the opportunity to refine his skills. His primary cultivation method, the Gale Blade Technique, was somewhat crude.
Despite his dedication, he still wasn't considered exceptionally strong.
Lu HaiKong pointed out Yu Dian's shortcomings in martial arts, and the battle ended.
"Chen Ping, arrange for Yu Dian to join the Flame Camp!"
Hearing this order, Yu Dian seemed a bit disappointed, perhaps because he wasn't directly under Lu HaiKong's command.
Lu HaiKong patted Yu Dian's shoulder and said, "The Flame Camp is a special unit under my command. All my top generals have graduated from the Flame Camp. Those who make it in are ones I have high hopes for, including you. I have great expectations for you!"
Upon hearing these words, Yu Dian's eyes nearly teared up.
"I will not disappoint you, Lord!"
"With your abilities, you'll soon break through in combat strength within the Flame Camp. Don't worry too much. But as a warrior, I hope you'll focus not only on martial techniques but also study military strategy on the side. Work hard, and when you graduate from the Flame Camp, I'll promote you to Colonel!"
Lu HaiKong patted Yu Dian's shoulder firmly, having successfully recruited another capable warrior.
Don't underestimate Yu Dian. Although he's not a historical warrior, he's still an exceptional individual.
Yu Dian
Lord: Lu HaiKong
Loyalty: 90
Talent: Advanced (Combat Strength Cap: 87, Politics Cap: 70, Strategy Cap: 60, Command Cap: 75)
Abilities:
Combat Strength: 73, Politics: 50, Strategy: 45, Command: 45
Primary Cultivation Method: Iron Blood Technique
Primary Martial Technique: Gale Blade Technique
With advanced talent, a combat strength cap of 87, and a command cap of 75, isn't acquiring such a well-rounded warrior a cause for celebration?
After Yu Dian joined, the only remaining warriors in the room were Wen Ugly, Gun God Tong, and Zhao Yun.
At this moment, Lu HaiKong didn't focus on Zhao Yun. Having just witnessed Lu HaiKong's recruitment of Yu Dian and Zhang Liao, Ugly was already fired up and approached with a long spear in hand.
Ugly wasn't one for words, so he said nothing and simply raised his spear.
Seeing Ugly approach, Lu HaiKong lifted his battle axe, exuding a domineering aura emanating from him. As if in response to Lu HaiKong, Ugly's body also exuded a powerful aura.
They exchanged smiles and engaged in battle.
In the intense battle against Wen Chen, Lu HaiKong naturally couldn't have it as easy as when facing Zhang Liao and Yu Dian.
At this point, Wen Chen had not yet reached his peak, but his strength was already above 90, seven points higher than Lu HaiKong.
If it were an ordinary warrior, they wouldn't even have the qualifications to fight Wen Chen. But Lu HaiKong was no ordinary man.
This guy's combat strength was only at 83, but his fighting power had already far surpassed that, and more importantly, Lu HaiKong's martial arts cultivation was far superior to Wen Chen's.
Under these circumstances, the battle between the two was surprisingly evenly matched.
The two fought back and forth, with such intensity that their terrifying aura caused people to involuntarily back away, keeping a distance of ten meters from them.
The heated scene of their combat made onlookers' blood boil.
Zhao YueEr, who was nearby, was no exception. Several times, she raised her long spear, wanting to join the fight, but in the end, she managed to restrain herself.
Originally, Tong Yuan thought Zhao YueEr was Lu HaiKong's maid or perhaps a female companion. It wasn't until Zhao YueEr restrained her desire to fight that he realized the terrifying aura emanating from the seemingly fragile girl before him, her face covered by a light veil.
A top-notch expert, an absolute top-notch expert.
In the 1619 book, there's no mistake in this version!
"This Governor is indeed extraordinary; even his female companion is such a top-notch expert!" Tong Yuan thought, still gazing at them without retracting his gaze, when Zhao YueEr looked over at him. Her eyes were like those of a beast staring down its prey, causing Tong Yuan to tense up involuntarily.
But before Tong Yuan could react, Zhao YueEr had already retracted the fighting intent in her eyes and turned to him with an apologetic smile, as gentle as a graceful young lady, completely different from before.
At the same time, on the other side, Lu HaiKong and Wen Chen's battle was nearing its end.
Initially, both sides were evenly matched, but gradually, the balance shifted.
Lu HaiKong's combat strength ultimately fell short. Even with the activation of [Peerless Tyrant], he couldn't force out Wen Chen's general trait, and after several dozen exchanges, signs of defeat became apparent, and Lu HaiKong halted.
"It's no use, it's no use. General Wen's strength is astonishing. I'm no match for him. In my army, there's only one person who can defeat General Wen, and that's you, Colonel!"
Lu HaiKong stopped when the signs of defeat became evident. Wen Chen thought Lu HaiKong was concerned about saving face and had prepared for Lu HaiKong to claim a draw. He never expected Lu HaiKong's demeanor to be far greater than he imagined, as he readily admitted defeat.
Seeing Lu HaiKong's smiling face, Wen Chen suddenly realized the truth. After half a beat, he stepped forward and knelt on one knee.
"I, Wen Chen, report to my lord!"
Lu HaiKong swore that this was the easiest top-tier historical general he had ever subdued, and although the process was simple, the joy he felt was no less.
"Congratulations on obtaining the loyalty of the top-tier historical general Wen Chen (not yet at his peak).
Historical General

Loyalty: 80

Combat Strength: 90, Politics: 30, Strategy: 40, Leadership: 50

Hearing the system prompt and looking at Wen Chen's attributes, Lu HaiKong couldn't help but smile.
"Yes, yes, yes! To have General Wen, I, Lu HaiKong, am truly fortunate!"
