Outside Xiling City, the setting sun looked like blood.
Drums beat and flags flutter.
The soldiers from both sides lined up neatly and stood facing each other, leaving an open space of a hundred feet in the wilderness on the shore.
In the open space, Gan Ning narrowed his eyes slightly and chose to take the lead. He quickly killed Ye Baikui with the golden ring knife in his hand, his pace getting faster and faster.
"Zizzizi!"
The blade of the Golden Ring Knife hit the ground, splashing out a few wisps of sparks, ready to go.
The harsh metal sound disturbed everyone's eardrums.
Even the ordinary soldiers around him could see that Gan Ning was ready to go all out to defeat the enemy with one blow.
When the two of them were less than ten feet apart, seeing Ye Baikui still closing his eyes and not making any move to fight back, Gan Ning secretly laughed in his heart: It turned out to be a silver pewter spear head, but he was so frightened that he didn't dare to move.
Gan Ning kicked the ground with both feet, jumped up, held the handle of the knife tightly with both hands, and used the inertia of his fall to slash at Ye Baikui.
This scene made the Jinfan army hold their breath. If the opponent was killed by the boss with a knife, I'm afraid the boss' future career would be worrying!
Just when everyone thought Ye Baikui was a pewter spearhead, they were already frightened by Gan Ning's momentum.
Ye Baikui finally moved.
His eyes suddenly opened, and his aura suddenly increased, just as the golden ring knife was about to hit his face.
Suddenly he dodged sideways and cleverly avoided the knife.
Then, Ye Baikui dodged from the side, and with lightning speed, he pulled out the Qinglong Sword from his waist and completed a turnaround in an instant.
"Wushuang·Sword cuts down the whale!"
The arms were as long as the wind, and the Green Dragon Sword in his hand, packed with the power of the mountain collapse, crashed onto the blade of the Golden Ring Sword.
"boom!"
After a shocking loud noise.
The golden ring knife held tightly in Gan Ning's hand was instantly cut into two pieces.
The blade of the knife fell heavily to the ground. Gan Ning was holding the handle of the knife in his hand, frozen in a cold sweat.
He couldn't believe that this golden ring sword, which had been stained with the blood of hundreds of enemies, could be cut off by someone's sword.
Ye Baikui slowly sheathed his sword with an expressionless expression, glanced at Gan Ning who had lost his soul, left only one sentence in the air, and turned around to leave.
"Young man, don't be so angry. If I can cut off your knife, I can cut off your head."
Hearing Ye Baikui's cold and arrogant words, everyone present was moved.
Gan Ning felt as if a mountain was pressing down on him. The pressure was so overwhelming that he couldn't breathe, and his fighting spirit was almost broken.
powerful!
It's so strong!
Everyone knew that Shouchun Hou had powerful soldiers, but they never imagined that an unknown person could kill him completely.
"Mighty! Mighty! Mighty!"
It is different from Gan Ning’s loss.
The three thousand Euphorbia soldiers all cheered and shouted like mountains and tsunamis, feeling proud of their commander.
Amidst the cheers, Ye Baikui came to Gao Yi, bowed and said: "Master, Bai Kui is lucky to have lived up to his command."
Gao Yi hurriedly helped Ye Baikui up and said with a smile: "General Ye is a peerless handsome man. It's really hard for the general to let the general deal with those yellow-haired brats!"
Ye Baikui continued to answer without being arrogant or impetuous: "It is Bai Kui's duty to share the young master's worries."
"The boy just now is not weak in strength, very courageous, and very careful. I saw in his eyes a passion for war and a desire for killing."
"He is a good seedling, but it is a pity that he has not grown up yet, and the opponent he met is me... But if he is trained a little, he will definitely be a general who is not weaker than General Zhang Liao in the future."
Hearing this, Gao Yi couldn't help but narrow his eyes, and secretly marveled at Ye Baikui's vision, he really knew the hero with his sharp eye.
As Ye Baikui said, Gan Ning's future achievements are no less than those of Zhang Liao today. In later generations, the two of them will be the two generals of Cao Wei and Soochow respectively.
Sun Quan, the emperor of Wu in history, once praised: Meng De has Zhang Liao, and Gan Xingba alone is enough to rival him.
After finally defeating Gan Ning, Huang Zu kept his promise and promised Gao Yi that he could take three thousand Euphorbia soldiers with him and cross the river by boat to Xiangyang City.
To express his gratitude, Gao Yi also specially asked the fleet to dock and personally visited Huang Zu's home.
After a while of pushing cups and changing cups, the two gradually became familiar with each other, calling each other "Brother Gao" and "Brother Huang".
Those who didn’t know better thought they were long-lost brothers, reunited after a long absence!
Drink enough until night falls and the stars are twinkling.
It is different from the singing and dancing in the prefect's mansion.
In a dilapidated courtyard outside Xiling City, there was another scene.
At this time, Gan Ning, who was hit hard, was holding a pot of turbid wine and drinking alone, using the wine to relieve his worries and make them worse.
After a long time, Gan Ning drank all the wine in the pot.
Looking at the dilapidated and silent courtyard, and then at the empty wine bottle in his hand, Gan Ning could not help but shed two lines of hot tears, and cried out sadly:
"I was born as a ranger in Gan Ning. In my early years, I was very majestic in the county. When I came in and out, I was decorated with brocade and glory. Wherever I went, I was respected by everyone."
"Hey! How did you end up in this situation now, Ye Baikui? Although I am not your opponent now, I, Gan Ning, will defeat you with my own hands sooner or later."
After a while, Gan Ning gradually dispelled the haze and unwillingness in his heart, and began to turn his grief and anger into strength. He picked up the broken knife and began to practice his sword skills hard.
After Gan Ning finished dancing his sword.
In the corner of the courtyard, there was a burst of applause.
"General Gan, he is truly worthy of being a fierce general in the army, a man who knows his shame and then becomes brave!"
Gan Ning was panic-stricken. He had been drinking in the courtyard since dusk. When did this man come to the courtyard?
"Who are you? Why are you here?"
Hearing Gan Ning's question, the man smiled and said: "General Gan, you are really forgetful. Only a few hours have passed, why don't you recognize me?"
While talking and laughing, the man had already stepped out of the dark corner.
It's late at night and the silver moon is high.
The bright moonlight casts on the young man's fairy-like handsome face, making him look even more elegant and free.
Look clearly at the face of the person coming.
Gan Ning exclaimed: "Master Gao, why do you appear in our courtyard?"
"Also, Mr. Gao said during the day that he was a scholar and had no power to restrain a chicken. But now he can suddenly appear in our courtyard. I'm afraid it's not a lie!"
"With such strength, you and Ye Baikui will never be the unknown people under Shouchun Hou. Who are you? Are you Yuan Zuozong? Or Chu Lushan?"
Gao Yi shook his head slightly and praised: "General Bai Kui, you still praise General Gan in front of me today for being bold and careful. I'm still a little surprised."
"When I met him tonight, I realized that it was not General Bai Kui who was wrong, but my knowledge."
"Okay! I won't hide it anymore... My surname is Gao Mingming, and I am the lord of Xuzhou who wants to form an alliance with Liu Biao."
