Gan Ning himself had the heart to kill Xiahou Yuan as soon as possible, and now that Xiahou Pifu not only couldn't support it in the first place, but also provoked himself when he was fleeing, which made the anger in Gan Ning's heart calm.

In addition, as a military general, there are a few tempers that are not as explosive as fire, and such a temper and character may not be obvious in ordinary times, but once a little oil is a little bit of oil, it will be ignited immediately.

What's more, he has just gone through a fierce battle, and according to later generations, this is the time when adrenaline is secreted in large quantities, and his own control is naturally not as good as usual.

Gan Ning chased after him without even thinking about it, Xiahou Yuan was still worried about whether Gan Ning would catch up, but when he heard the rapid sound of horses' hooves coming from behind him, a smile appeared on his face that his plan had succeeded.

Then Xiahou Yuan slapped the hind buttocks of his war horse heavily with the blade of his big knife, and the lightning eagle claw horse immediately accelerated its retreat after letting out a neigh.

The two chased and fled like meteors, getting farther and farther away from the west gate of the east sunrise.

Gan Ning's subordinates didn't care at first, but when they found out that their main general was chasing farther and farther, they realized that something was unexpected.

You must know that in recent times, they have been harassed by those elusive Cao troops, and there are even many times when the scout brothers sent by their army are planted in the hands of each other in teams.

Therefore, in order to minimize losses, every time they go out to reconnoiter the enemy's situation, the brigade of men and horses acts together, which effectively reduces losses, but the control over the entire area also decreases a lot.

After all, it is impossible for Gan Ning to send all the men and horses under his command, and he still needs to leave behind the men and horses to besiege the city, the men and horses to defend the camp, and so on.

This also caused that, in addition to their effective monitoring of the four city gates of East Chaoyang, there were large areas of monitoring blank areas in the rest of the places.

Once the enemy generals lead their own generals to places where they are not well monitored, and those elusive Cao troops suddenly appear again, then their generals will not fall into the siege of the enemy army!

Therefore, when Gan Ning's subordinates saw Gan Ning chasing farther and farther, they immediately had to beat their horses to keep up, even if they couldn't be tightly tied behind their own general's horse, at least they couldn't let the general out of their field of vision.

In this way, even if there is any emergency, they can take measures in time, at least even if the general is surrounded by enemy troops, they can go to the rescue in time.

But they didn't expect that when they were just about to beat their horses to keep up, the Cao army that followed Xiahou Yuan from the city also moved, and they actually rushed over directly to fight with an extremely fierce attitude.

Although the subordinates brought out by Gan Ning this time were much more elite than Xiahou Yuan's subordinates, they should not want to catch up with Gan Ning and Xiahou Yuan in a short period of time.

When Gan Ning's lieutenant saw this, a trace of worry immediately flashed in his eyes, and while he kept fighting with Cao Jun beside him, he instructed the captain of the personal guard beside him:

"You immediately send someone back to the camp to invite General Zhao, just say that our general was led away by the enemy general, and there may be danger, please General Zhao must help!"

"No!"

After hearing his general's order, the captain of the personal guard immediately nodded in agreement, and then sent his most elite team out.

Originally, Gan Ning's soldiers were very elite, not to mention the guards of his generals, so they were even more elite among some elites.

Although there were not many people in a small group, there were only about a dozen people, but these dozen or so people broke away from the onslaught of Cao's army at a very fast speed and went straight to their own camp.

Those Cao Jun, who were desperately pestering them, of course, also discovered this team, but they didn't care very much.

After all, they also understand that it is not easy to be able to hold back the other party with their strength, and it is absolutely impossible to completely surround the other party.

Besides, those people did not go to the position predetermined by their own general, but withdrew directly in the direction of the other party's camp, which did not affect their mission at all.

Therefore, after getting rid of the entanglement of the enemy army, this small group of men and horses quickly returned to their own camp, and they did not make any rest after entering the camp, and went straight to the direction of the Chinese army.

At this time, in the position of the Chinese army in the Ganning camp, a tall general was resting, and there was no such person in Ganning's army before.

This person rushed to Gan Ning's army only today because of Fo Xiao, in order to convey the latest orders of the lord to Gan Ning.

It stands to reason that such a thing can be accomplished by sending a few heralds, and there is no need to send such a big future herald at all.

But recently, the special situation on Gan Ning's side has caused several waves of heralds sent by Liu Yuan to be intercepted and killed on the road.

In addition, the order conveyed this time was relatively urgent, so Liu Yuan would send his generals to complete such a small task.

At this time, Liu Yuan had already led people into the territory of Qingzhou, which was only a hundred and ten miles away from Gan Ning and others, and he also received a battle report sent by Ma Chao, which said that he had taken Huangxian County, which was heavily guarded by Cao's army.

This made Liu Yuan feel very happy, Huangxian is one of the gateways of Cao's army, as long as Huangxian is opened and Dongchaoyang is taken, the entire Qingzhou will be exposed to their soldiers.

Therefore, taking Huangxian is equivalent to a phased victory in the Battle of Qingzhou, which makes Liu Yuan feel very happy, but there are also things that worry him.

That is the progress of Dong Chaoyang, but it has always been unsatisfactory, I don't know what kind of trick Cao Jun used in Dong Chaoyang, so that Gan Ning was like a dog biting a hedgehog and had no way to start.

Before, Liu Yuan took the battle report sent by Gan Ning and gathered all his strategists to discuss it all night, but due to the lack of information on the battle report, they did not come up with a good solution.

Just when Liu Yuan felt that things were a little tricky, Ma Chao came with good news again, and they actually rebelled against Gao Lan, the general of the Cao army.

Gao Ran not only handed over the defense map of East Chaoyang in his hand, but even promised that he could take people into East Chaoyang with him, and when the time came, he would join forces with the Jizhou army outside the city to take this important town.

When he heard the news, Liu Yuan was overjoyed, and then he immediately sent someone to inform Gan Ning, asking Gan Ning to wait for the arrival of reinforcements for a while.

Due to the urgency of the matter and the poor communication with Gan Ning during this time, Liu Yuan sent his general Zhao Le and asked him to convey the news to Gan Ning in person.

Originally, Zhao Le should have been able to arrive at Ganning's camp last night, but along the way, he encountered four or five waves of Cao troops of different numbers to block him, and after struggling to kill all these Cao troops, Zhao Le took his personal entourage, and Yu Foxiao arrived at Ganning's camp.
