"That's easy to say!"
Gan Ning agreed immediately, but was slightly surprised.
Although he had long known that Yang Ling had several sworn brothers, he never expected that Zhao Yun and Xu Chu would be so heroic!
Just by looking at them, you can feel their extraordinary magnanimity!
It seems that following Yang Ling to Xudu this time is the right thing to do!
Gan Ning secretly felt happy.
After everyone exchanged pleasantries, Yang Ling waved over a few servants and asked them to settle Huang Yueying first.
He sat down in the lobby with Zhao Yun, Xu Chu, Gan Ning, and Cao Ang.
After listening to Yang Ling's story about his trip to Jingzhou, Xu Chu couldn't help but smile strangely and said,
"Brother, you are really bad! If Liu Biao knew about it, he would be furious!"
"Since Liu Biao has agreed, can we take action?"
Zhao Yun asked about business matters.
"good!"
Yang Ling nodded slightly, nodded and said,
"How have you been preparing these days?"
"Reply to brother, we are fully prepared!"
Zhao Yun replied.
"That's good, we will attack the city tomorrow!"
Yang Ling said decisively!
…
Early the next morning, Yang Ling, Cao Ang, Zhao Yun and others gathered their troops and horses, left Ye County in a mighty manner, and headed straight for Wancheng!
Yang Ling and the others had just begun to organize their troops and horses. Before they left the city, the spies sent by Zhang Xiu spread the news back to Wancheng.
Wancheng County Government.
In Zhang Xiugao's cathedral, his counselors and generals stood on the left and right.
The leader of the counselor was dressed in a green shirt. Although his appearance was unremarkable, his eyes were deep and gleaming with wisdom.
Fighting against him, in front of the generals, was a burly man with a ferocious look.
They are Jia Xu, the counselor Zhang Xiu relies on most, and Hu Che'er, the military general.
"Cao's army is coming fiercely. What suggestions do you have?"
Zhang Xiu asked in the hall.
"Then what else is there to say? Just do it and that's it!"
Hu Cheer grinned, and his appearance became more and more ferocious!
"I am willing to serve as a vanguard general and take off the head of Cao Ang's son for the lord!"
"I am very pleased that General Hu Che'er has such courage, but this matter should not be taken carelessly."
Zhang Xiu smiled and praised, then turned to look at Jia Xu.
"What do you mean, Mr. Wenhe?"
Jia Xu pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said,
"We can rely on the city to resist Cao's army, so why go out of the city to fight?"
Hearing this, Hu Che'er was immediately unhappy.
"Military advisor, Cao Ang's army came from afar and only has fifteen thousand men and horses. Our army is waiting for work and has more troops than them. Why should we huddle in the city? Isn't it a joke to Cao Ang?!"
"Yes, lord, let us go out and fight!"
"It's just Cao Ang. General Hu will definitely be able to capture him!"
The other generals also talked a lot.
Seeing everyone's attitude, Zhang Xiu hesitated for a moment and then said,
"In that case, General Hu Che'er obeys the order!"
"The general is here!"
Hu Che'er was overjoyed and came out of the crowd, cupping his hands and saying.
"This time I order you to be the vanguard of our army and go to resist Cao Jun!"
"The general will obey the order!"
"But remember, if anything goes wrong, withdraw immediately!"
Zhang Xiu warned.
"Please rest assured, my lord, nothing will happen."
Hu Cheer laughed and took the order and left.
Jia Xu sighed slightly when he saw this, a look of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
Zhang Xiu noticed his expression and comforted him,
"Military advisor, don't worry, Hu Che'er is not a reckless person."
"I'm not worried about Hu Che'er, I'm worried about the Lord."
Jia Xu smiled bitterly.
"What does the military advisor mean by this?"
Zhang Xiu looked at him in surprise.
"My lord sent letters to Liu Biao again and again, requesting that we attack Xudu together, but his attitude was ambiguous and he refused to agree."
"That's okay. It is said that Cao Cao's envoy is still in Xiangyang City. If Liu Biao reaches an agreement with him, we will be in danger."
Jia Xu said slowly.
"It's unlikely. Liu Biao is an ally with me. How could he join forces with Cao Cao?"
Zhang Xiu said nonchalantly.
"There are only eternal interests in the world, how can there be eternal enemies?!"
Jia Xu somewhat hated the fact that iron cannot become steel.
Liu Biao was short-sighted and not a wise man. He only wanted to become king and hegemon in Jingzhou.
If Cao Cao promised him anything, he would probably sell out Zhang Xiu, Jia Xu and others!
After all, Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu still have a grudge against their uncle!
"Then... Mr. Yi Wenhe, what should we do?"
Hearing what Jia Xu said was so serious, Zhang Xiu couldn't help but become worried.
Although the lord himself is a bit young and irritable, fortunately he can follow his own advice.
Jia Xu felt much relieved and muttered,
"The top priority is to resist Cao Jun's attack."
"My Lord, it would be a good idea to ask General Hu Che'er to attack Cao's army."
"I heard that Cao Ang is not very young. As a young man, he is inevitably reckless."
"If General Hu Che'er succeeds, he can chop off Cao Ang's head and present it to Liu Biao!"
"In this case, Cao Cao and Liu Biao will definitely be at odds with each other!"
After Zhang Xiu heard this, he couldn't help but excitedly photographed the case.
"The military advisor is really smart!"
With Cao Cao's character, if he killed his eldest son, he would never let Liu Biao go.
At that time, no matter how reluctant Liu Biao is, he must raise an army to resist Cao Cao!
This plan is really cruel!
…
Ten miles outside Wancheng.
Yang Ling originally planned to use Zhao Yun as the vanguard general, but Gan Ning was eager to serve and insisted on being the vanguard.
So he gave Gan Ning three thousand troops to lead the way.
When Gan Ning and others came to a dense forest, he suddenly felt something in his heart and called his men to stop.
"Go, send people to search the woods!"
The soldiers took the order, dispersed, and started searching in the forest.
Not long after, Yang Ling and Cao Ang from the rear led their troops to catch up.
Seeing Gan Ning's stagnant troops, Cao Ang couldn't help but said,
"General Xingba, aren't you the vanguard of the army? Why are you staying here?"
"Master Zixiu doesn't know something. The woods here are dense, but there are no birds, animals or insects. It's a bit too quiet. I suspect that Zhang Xiu's men and horses are ambushing inside, so I stopped here and ordered people to search."
Gan Ning explained.
"I see."
Cao Ang suddenly realized it and looked into the woods.
As Gan Ning said, it was too quiet in the forest.
Cao Jun searched around inside, but did not disturb any birds or animals. It was indeed strange.
At this moment, several screams suddenly came, followed by shouts of killing!
"There's an ambush!"
"Ready to fight!"
As soon as the soldiers formed their formation, they saw a large number of people rushing out of the woods!
The leading general is tall and tall, holding a big sword and looking menacing!
"I am Hu Che'er, who dares to fight to the death with me!"
Hu Che'er roared, his sword flew up and down, and several of Cao's soldiers were killed by him on the spot!
