Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Fierce General Returns (Fourth Update)
"Presumptuous!"
Huang Shao, as a personal guard, is responsible for protecting Gao Cheng's safety, of course, with his strength, he can't stop the real master, so he can only deal with some small things for Gao Cheng. Seeing Cao Hong so presumptuous, he couldn't help but be furious, took a step forward, and blasted out his right fist with a strong anger towards Cao Hong's head.
The fluctuation of the qi shook the windows around the hall, and Huang Shao still gave Xu a little face, and did not pull out the long sword on his waist to fight to the death with the other party.
However, if this punch hits, Cao Hong will be hit hard even if he does not die.
"Ah...... Uncle, be careful!" The young man who fell behind showed a look of surprise on his face, he was full of elegance, he was worthy of reaching the ninth layer of soul cultivation, and his body was strong, and he was also a warrior of the ninth level of training. Civilian-military cultivation should not be underestimated.
"What?"
As soon as Cao Hong stepped into the hall, before he could see the figure inside, there was an alarm in his heart, and his originally slightly drunk expression suddenly regained consciousness. Subconsciously raised his arms, and with a bang, the fiery red gang qi protected his body.
Bang!
The gangqi of the two sides collided with each other and canceled each other. A strong aftermath shook in all directions, and the servants of the Xu family who followed Cao Hong were unstable, and they all took more than a dozen steps back in a row before they stood firm.
"Who are you?" Cao Hong broke out in a cold sweat and shouted.
Huang Shao snorted coldly and did not answer, and was about to step forward again, when an invisible force came, making him stop, Gao Cheng stood up and patted him on the shoulder.
"General Cao, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come here unharmed!" Gao Cheng said lightly. Speaking of which, he and Cao Hong still have some fate, when he was in the Changshe, he and Cao Hong met in a narrow way, and he almost took his life.
Later, when the princes were in alliance, they also met once.
Now this is the third time we have met. However, at this time, Gao Cheng was already the world-famous Yangzhou pastor and right general, and his power was still above Cao Cao, Cao Hong's lord. Cao Hong can only look up to the status he has.
"You...... How could the high envoy be here?" Cao Hong saw the young man in front of him, his face changed wildly, he could hardly control his emotions, his voice became hoarse, and he subconsciously took a step back, tightly protecting the elegant young man behind him.
When the princes met in the alliance, Cao Hong knew that Gao Cheng's strength far surpassed his own, and later he paid great attention to Gao Cheng's information, whether it was Gao Cheng's pursuit of Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu, or later ambushed Sun Jian, beheaded the elders of the Yuan family, and all of them were based in Yangzhou......
The more he learned about the other party, the more frightened he became, is there still a person in the world whose strength has grown so rapidly? In the Changshe back then, the other party had not yet cultivated to the level of refining gang, and in less than ten years, Gao Cheng had advanced by leaps and bounds and became the top powerhouse in the world.
"Why can't I be here? Now that Yuan Shu has been given the head, Yuzhou has no owner, as soon as the news spreads, your lord began to send people into Yuzhou, do you want to compete with me for Yuzhou?" Gao Cheng asked lightly.
Cao Hong didn't know that the other party was ready to give up Yuzhou and was moving the people to transfer materials, he remembered the recent actions of the lord Cao Cao, and forced a laugh. I was about to say a few casual words to fool the past.
After Gao Cheng asked, he ignored Cao Hong, who was sweating on his forehead, his eyes fell on the young man behind, he groaned, and said, "Cao Hong called you Zixiu just now...... You are Brother Mengde's eldest son, Cao Ang?"
Cao Hong trembled, his eyes showed a trace of remorse, Cao Ang was the eldest son of the lord, if he wasn't careless, how could he expose his identity. At present, the identity of the eldest prince is recognized by Gao Cheng, and the consequences are unimaginable.
Cao Cao's sons are still young, only one Cao Ang is an adult, and he is both civil and military, proficient in political strategy and military affairs, and is the heir who can inherit the great cause of the lord in the eyes of everyone in the Cao family and Xiahou family. If something happened to him, Cao Hong himself couldn't forgive himself.
"Yes, in Xia Cao Ang, meet Uncle Gao!"
At the beginning, Gao Cheng and Cao Cao were in the alliance of sour dates, and they were commensurate with each other, so Cao Ang was respectful and called Gao Cheng his uncle.
Speaking of which, it has been almost ten years since Gao Cheng came to this world, and his appearance has not changed, but his age is close to thirty. Counting the time spent in other worlds, the age is doubled!
Being called an uncle by Cao Ang doesn't seem to be a big deal.
"Hahaha, I can't afford to be called Zixiu like this, I have always admired Meng Degong, but it's a pity that when the princes met the alliance, I didn't communicate with him a few words. Now that I am fortunate enough to meet Zi Xiu, it is not worth this trip, why don't you go to Yangzhou with me as a guest, and let Zi Xiu appreciate the vastness of the river?"
Gao Cheng laughed, and when he said a word, it immediately made Cao Hong and Cao Ang feel cold in their hearts. Gao Cheng's implication is to bring Cao Ang to Yangzhou to act as a proton!
When the time comes, with Cao Ang in hand, Cao Cao will throw a rat trap and dare not wantonly encroach on Yuzhou. affect the development of its own power.
"Zixiu, you go quickly, I'll stop Gao Cheng!"
Cao Hong hesitated in his heart, suddenly made up his mind, shouted, and burst out with all his strength, urging the Cao family's Chiyang Gang Qi to the extreme, preparing to use his own life to cover Cao Ang's escape.
Gao Cheng put away his smile, stretched out his right hand and flicked his fingers, and with a bang, a gang qi containing an incomparably strong and domineering intent roared out, directly shaking Cao Hong's gang qi away, and then banging. Knock him away.
Poof!
Cao Hong didn't have any strength to fight back, and was directly hit hard by Gao Cheng's fingers. He vomited blood in his mouth and fractured his ribs. Fortunately, Gao Cheng saw Xu Chu's face and did not kill in the hall of Xu's mansion.
"Uncle Zilian!"
Cao Ang's eyes suddenly turned red, sonorous, and he pulled out the sword at his waist, he knew that he was not Gao Cheng's opponent, but he was a disciple of the Cao family, and he would never kneel and beg for mercy in the face of a strong enemy.
Looking at his actions, Gao Cheng couldn't help but smile slightly, and he had a little appreciation for him.
"High Envoy, please be merciful to your subordinates......"
At this time, Xu Chu, who received the report from the servant, hurried over, jumped forward, and blocked in front of Cao Ang. The wooden look he had used to hide himself was gone, and a wry smile came across his face.
"Cao Gongzi and General Cao Hong offended the envoys, and I apologized to the envoys on their behalf, but they are my guests after all, and it is my responsibility to protect their safety when I come here. ”
Xu Chu bowed sincerely. Apologize.
Gao Cheng's expression did not move, he suddenly smiled, and said: "Since Zhong Kang said so, I will let the two of them go once, by the way, I don't know what I said just now, what did Zhong Kang think?"
Xu Chu's eyes swept a glance at Cao Ang and Cao Hong, and he had a feeling that if he didn't agree to Gao Cheng's solicitation, Cao Ang and Cao Hong would definitely not be able to leave here, and the Yangzhou army had already occupied Runan, not far from Peiguo. In the future, Xu's Dock Fort may also suffer unforeseen disasters.
"I have discussed with the elders of the clan, so that the king's name will shake the world, and the tiger will step into the Central Plains, which is a rare master in the world, and I Xu Chu is willing to whip and fall into the stirrups for the king!"
Xu Chu's majestic body bowed down and said in a deep voice: "Meet the lord!"
Hearing Xu Chu's calm voice, Cao Hong and Cao Ang looked a little miserable, Xu Chu, Cao and Xiahou are township parties, according to the normal situation, it is not a problem to recruit this peerless general.
Unexpectedly, Gao Cheng suddenly appeared, so he recruited Xu Chu over. Without a peerless general, how will Yanzhou resist Lu Bu and Yan Liangwen of Jizhou in the future?
