Looking at the closed city gate in front of them and Zhang Xiu being turned away, everyone couldn't help but marvel.
Yang Ling's control of people's hearts is so precise!
"General Zhang Xiu, now that you can't enter the city, you might as well surrender early!"
Cao Ang stepped forward on his horse and said loudly.
Zhang Xiu glanced at him, then at the impregnable Wancheng, as if there was a mess in his heart!
If Cao Jun was not watching from the side, he could have attacked the city and recaptured Wancheng from Jia Xu.
But it’s impossible now!
Do you want to lead the army and leave here?
This plan just came to mind, but he shook his head and denied it.
joke.
His army had no food and fodder. Even if he wanted to join Yuan Shu, Lu Bu and their like, the soldiers would probably starve to death or run away on the way.
"Lord..."
Hu Che'er slowly stepped forward, looking quite worried.
Zhang Xiu looked at the frightened faces of the soldiers around him, sighed, and finally dropped the spear in his hand.
"Down!"
…
After seeing Zhang Xiu surrendering to Cao Jun, Jia Xu in the city did not hesitate and immediately opened the city gate and let Cao Jun into the city.
In this way, Wancheng changed hands three times in just two days, and was finally successfully captured by Yang Ling and Cao Ang.
This time Cao Ang learned his lesson and took over the city defense as soon as he entered the city.
Although he did not embarrass Zhang Xiu's soldiers, he also put away their soldiers and armor.
County government lobby.
As soon as Yang Ling, Cao Ang and others sat down, Jia Xu walked in accompanied by several soldiers.
"I've met Master Zixiu, I've met Mr. Yang Ling, I've met several generals."
He calmly saluted Yang Ling and Cao Ang.
"Mr. Wenhe, there is no need to be polite. You are indispensable for taking Wancheng today."
Cao Ang praised with a smile.
"What kind of credit does this count as?"
Jia Xu smiled to himself.
After Zhang Xiu let Cao Ang go because of his aunt, Jia Xu was particularly disappointed with Zhang Xiu!
This is why he was persuaded to betray Zhang Xiu by Yang Ling's letter.
But in doing so, he fell into the name of betraying the Lord.
Although Jia Xu cares more about his own life, such a reputation is somewhat unpleasant.
"Zhang Xiu rebelled. Sir, he abandoned the secret and turned to the bright side. How can he talk about rebelling against the master? When the general finds out, he will definitely reward you greatly."
Yang Ling comforted him with kind words.
"Thank you sir for your comfort."
Jia Xu handed over to Yang Ling, but felt particularly lonely in his heart.
He prides himself on being resourceful.
But since meeting Yang Ling, he has been hampered at every turn, and Yang Ling's every move is plotted against him.
Yang Ling not only has a strong sense of the overall situation, but also has extremely precise control over people's hearts.
Even Jia Xuhui could think of betraying Zhang Xiu because he acted wisely to protect himself.
What a genius!
That’s all, it’s not a shame to lose at the hands of this person!
Jia Xu sighed slightly.
At this moment, Zhang Xiu and Hu Che'er were also brought up.
It's just that compared to yesterday, his treatment today may not be so good.
Zhang Xiu and Hu Che'er were both tied up with ropes.
When he saw Cao Ang and others in the hall, although he looked sad, he didn't have any fear. He just said in a deep voice,
"Master Zixiu, it's up to you to kill or behead her. But I only have one request, please be kind to my aunt!"
"Okay, I promise General!"
Cao Ang said solemnly.
"Mr. Yang, please don't forget your previous promise."
Jia Xu on the side reminded,
"You promised to ensure the safety of my lord."
"There's no need for you to talk, you traitor!"
Zhang Xiu glared at him, still a little angry.
If it weren't for Jia Xu's betrayal, why would he be in this situation.
Seeing Zhang Xiu's bad attitude toward him, Jia Xu just smiled bitterly but didn't say much.
"This matter will be decided by the general, but don't worry, I will definitely ask the general to forgive General Zhang Xiu."
Yang Ling smiled and nodded.
Although they successfully recaptured Wancheng again, Yang Ling and Cao Ang had no intention of celebrating.
They collected the bodies of Gan Ning's brothers who died in the battle and buried them alive.
…
After a busy day of ensuring the safety of the city, Yang Ling stretched and returned to his previous residence.
But before he could get close to the room, he saw light shining through the window paper.
Is there anyone in the house?
Yang Ling's heart moved and she pushed the door open and entered.
Zou Rui, who has a graceful figure, is sitting on the bed.
Under the light, her beautiful appearance looked even more charming and alluring!
Seeing Yang Ling again, Zou Rui's cheeks were hot and she quickly stood up and saluted him.
"Meet sir."
What's going on?
Why was Zou Rui sent here again?
Yang Ling said a little confused,
"Why is Madam here?"
"Replying to sir, it was Mr. Wen He who sent me here. Master Zixiu also asked me to serve you well."
Zou Rui lowered her eyebrows and said softly.
After Yang Ling thought for a while, he understood the reason.
Cao Ang and Zhang Xiu fell out again because of Mrs. Zou.
Therefore, after Cao Ang and the others entered the city, Jia Xu sent Mrs. Zou over very knowingly.
Logically speaking, with Mrs. Zou's status, Cao Ang should have detained her together with Zhang Xiu.
After returning to Xudu, it will be left to his father Cao Cao to make the decision.
But it is better to know your father than your son.
Cao Ang knew his father's character very well. If Cao Cao saw Mrs. Zou, he would definitely be happy to have her in his room.
Cao Ang, who respected his mother, Mrs. Ding, naturally did not want such a thing to happen.
Besides, he also promised Zhang Xiu to treat Mrs. Zou kindly.
After some consideration, Cao Ang finally decided to send Zou Rui to Yang Ling's room.
the reason is simple.
Since Yang Ling has a generous temperament, Zou Rui will not be wronged if she follows him, and her life will be satisfactory.
In this way, Cao Ang fulfilled his promise to Zhang Xiu,
Secondly, during this trip to Wancheng, Yang Ling can be said to have achieved great results through hard work.
But he doesn't like fame and fortune, and he doesn't want to accept rewards.
To reward him with a beauty like Mrs. Zou is to give him what he likes.
Thirdly, even if his father, Cao Cao, knew about it, he couldn't be so shameless as to ask Yang Ling for a woman.
It can be said that it kills three birds with one stone!
My student... is getting smarter and smarter.
Yang Ling sighed in his heart and sat down next to Mrs. Zou.
As the saying goes, a woman should be pretty and filial.
Not long after Zhang Jicai died, Zou Rui, a widow, was dressed in white and looked even more beautiful.
Yang Ling stared at her for a while, then smiled and said,
"My wife was frightened yesterday. She won't blame me, right?"
Being stared at by his burning eyes, although Zou Rui felt a little uncomfortable, she felt some inexplicable expectation in her heart.
Hearing Yang Ling's words, she lowered her head,
"I don't blame you sir for my concubine."
Zou Rui knew very well that Yang Ling was completely forced to take herself as a hostage to blackmail Zhang Xiu yesterday.
Besides, even if she minded about it, so what?
In this troubled world, human life is as worthless as grass.
If it were not Zhang Xiu who succeeded Zhang Ji's army, I'm afraid Zou Rui would have been reduced to a plaything long ago.
Now that she was given to Yang Ling by Cao Ang, if she wanted to live a comfortable life in the future, she must please Yang Ling.
