Su Fei led the soldiers out of the city to see that the drawbridge had been pulled up and the city gate had been closed, and knowing that they had been abandoned, their morale instantly dropped to the bottom. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The 50,000 army led by Xu Ding surrounded this group of abandoned Cao soldiers in an instant, and it was only a matter of time before they were wiped out.

"General, it's not good, the city gate is closed!" Su Fei and Gan Ning were surrounded by the chaotic army back to back, and when they heard this, they looked back at Zhao Rong on the city tower, and their momentum soared in an instant.

"Zhao Rong Pifu!" It's a pity that Gan Ning's scolding couldn't move him at all, but Xu Chu took the lead and rushed directly in front of Gan Ning.

"Gan Ning, surrender, you have been abandoned by the Cao army, unless you want to be wiped out, do you just want to watch your brother die here?"

Xu Chu's words brought Gan Ning back to reality, and among the people brought out by Su Fei included the eight hundred athletes who followed Gan Ning, these were the brothers of life and death who followed him across the Yangtze River in the past, and he felt so comfortable seeing the brothers die in the hands of Yan Jun.

"Ah!!!h

Gan Ning shouted wildly, looked at the besieged Yan soldiers and the crossbowmen who were ready to attack, and knew that he would not be able to escape today, and if he wanted to save his brothers in life and death, he could only surrender to the Yan army.

"Stop!"

Gan Ning shouted, and the few soldiers moved closer to Gan Ning, and the Yan army did not continue to fight, but just watched Gan Ning who was surrounded by a strict battle.

"Xu Chu, can you guarantee that I will give my brothers a way to live after I surrender?" At this moment, Gan Ning really compromised, not for himself, but for the brothers around him.

It was Cao Jun who abandoned him first, not him betrayed the master, although this is Zhao Rong's personal vendetta, but Zhao Rong is Cao Cao's old minister, and Gan Ning and Cao Cao are not nominal master-slave relations.

"Of course! General Gan, please rest assured, my lord Yan Wang loves talents the most, General Gan's martial arts are extraordinary, and he will definitely be reused by my lord after surrendering. Xu Chu has been by Su Chen's side all the year round, and he is more aware of his character, so he dares to make this guarantee.

Hearing this, Gan Ning also breathed a sigh of relief, but he still asked with some unease: "Not long ago, I killed your army general Che Guan, wouldn't your lord King Yan blame me at all?" ”

"The two armies are fighting, each for its own master, General Che Zhou died on the battlefield, it is to seek benevolence, King Yan has ordered to pay heavy attention to General Che Guan's family, General Gan does not have to worry about this, one yard is one yard, my lord is not a narrow-minded person."

"Well, in that case, I'll descend!" After that, Gan Ning shouted loudly to the brothers of life and death behind him: "Brothers, today Cao Jun abandoned us and others, and did not take our lives in his eyes, in this case, we might as well surrender to King Yan, and also be a ghost who died unjustly, what do you brothers think?" ”

"I want to listen to the general!"

"Good! Brothers, put down your weapons and surrender to the Yan army! ”

With Gan Ning's order, the abandoned Cao Jun put down their weapons one after another, Yan Jun just accepted their weapons, and did not limit their personal life, Gan Ning followed Xu Chu and went to meet Su Chen.

Cao Cao had already received a report that there had been a battle at the north gate, and he had already ordered that he was not allowed to go out of the city to fight without permission, but thinking of Gan Ning and Zhao Rong stationed at the north gate, for some reason, Cao Cao suddenly felt a little uneasy, and hurried back from the south gate.

But he was still a step too late, when he arrived at the north gate, the battle here had ended, and when he learned that Gan Ning was abandoned by Zhao Rong and surrendered to the Yan army, Cao Cao was very angry, if it wasn't for the persuasion of Xun Yu Manzhong and others, he was afraid that Cao Cao would kill Zhao Rong on the spot.

"Hey, it's a pity Xingba, my father finally got Xingba, a tiger general, but I didn't expect to lose it in vain today, my father's heart hurts!"

Xun Yu knew that Cao Cao loved talents, but Zhao Rong was the general of the Cao army, and it was the time to use people, so he had to persuade him: "Don't be sad, now the enemy is now, the lord should cheer up, although Zhao Rong closed the city gate is a personal vendetta, but at this time it is the time to employ people, and Zhao Rong is also for the safety of Wancheng, after all, it is Gan Xingba who disregards the lord's orders and goes out of the city to fight privately, so there is this ending, and the lord can't do this." ”

"Hey, it's my father's negligence, in the end, today's mistake is also to blame, this father's father has long known that the generals in the army are dissatisfied with the matter of this father's reuse of Gan Ning, I didn't expect such a thing to happen, Wen Ruo, you have to persuade this father more in the future."

"No!"

Cao Cao reined in his mind and recovered his emotions before he asked, "Wen Ruo, now that Su Chen is menacing, our army's food and grass have not arrived for a long time, has Xiangyang sent someone to urge?" ”

"Lord, the eldest prince personally went to Xiangyang to ask for grain and grass, but now the situation in Xiangyang is not optimistic, the king of Chu is seriously ill, the king of Chu has not set up a son, the forces led by Cai Mao support the second son Liu Cong, only a small number of people support Liu Qi, although the eldest son is good friends with Liu Qi, but this trip will not be too smooth, the lord must be psychologically prepared."

Cao Cao now only has Cao Ang and Cao Pi two days, after Cao Ang was let go by Sun Ce, he came to Jingzhou, and befriended Liu Qi under Cao Cao's instructions.

As for Cao Pi, he can't help Cao Cao now, Cao Pi was sent to Lumen Academy by Cao Cao, and studied under Mr. Shuijing Sima Weimen, and Pang Tong of the Pang family in Xiangyang was a classmate, and he could be regarded as entering the high-level of Jingzhou.

The reason why Cao Cao let Cao Pi worship under Mr. Shuijing was also to make friends with the scholars of Jingzhou, so that he could be recognized by Jingzhou Shilin after taking control of Jingzhou in the future, after all, Jingzhou is different from Yanzhou, Chu has a prosperous literary style, and there are many wealthy families, only with the support of Shilin, Cao Cao can completely control Jingzhou.

It's just that Cao Cao didn't expect Su Chen to destroy Yuan Shao so quickly, and soon go south, which disrupted all his deployments, and now let alone plotting to seize Jingzhou, whether he can keep Nanyang is a question.

Xu Chu brought Gan Ning to meet Su Chen, with Su Chen's current status, he would not greet him for a Gan Ning, so he just waited in the camp.

After Gan Ning entered the camp, he was led by Xu Chu to a wide military tent, where Su Chen and his advisers and generals discussed military strategies, and when they saw Xu Chu coming in, everyone stopped.

"Zhong Kang is back so soon?"

"Lord, I have come to Ganning Ganxingba, I admire the prestige of the lord, and I have come to defect!" Xu Chu pointed to Gan Ning behind him and said.

Gan Ning is also an interesting person, knowing that this is Xu Chu to give him face, he immediately saluted Su Chen: "General Gan Ning to meet King Yan!" ”

"You killed our general?"

As soon as Su Chen's words came out, Xu Chu and Gan Ning changed color together, and Gan Ning secretly said bitterly, but he admitted calmly: "Yes, I killed the car!" ”

"Hahahaha, Ben Hou has another fierce general, congratulations, pass the order, set up a banquet for General Gan to catch the wind!"

"King Yan, this ......" Su Chen's attitude became very fast, making Gan Ning unpredictable, and he didn't understand why he seemed to blame him, and in the blink of an eye, he treated him like a guest.

Su Chen also knew that it was time to give him a reassuring pill, so he said: "In the past, this king had heard Youping and Gongyi talk about you, the Jinfan thief Gan Ning crisscrossed the river, and he did not meet an opponent, and the king's navy was lacking talents like you, when this king heard that you had taken refuge in Cao Cao, he secretly said that it was a pity, although you are a poor road to vote today, but this king is still very happy, as for the matter of the chariot, the two armies are fighting, each is its master, you are not wrong, and this king will not blame you for this, you can be relieved." ”

"Thank you King Yan, thanks to King Yan's attention, Gan Ning will definitely follow him in life and death!"

"Hmm!" Su Chen answered, gave a hand, and said, "You get up first." ”

Then he instructed Xu Chu: "Zhongkang, treat the life and death brothers of Xingba well, let them have a full meal, have a good rest, and still belong to the leader of Xingba in the future." ”

"No!"

Gan Ning saw that Su Chen had thought so carefully about him, and bowed to the ground again: "Thank you King Yan for the last general!" ”

"No need to be polite, get up!" Immediately he asked about the deployment of Wancheng's troops, and Gan Ning couldn't talk about Cao Cao about the center, so he told him everything.

"King Yan, Cao Cao's grain in Wancheng has been less than half a month, Cao Cao has sent his eldest son Cao Ang to Xiangyang to urge grain, King Yan may be able to send an ambush to intercept it halfway, cutting off Cao Cao's grain route."

"Don't be so troublesome, according to this king's view, Cao Ang must go empty-handed, after today's strong attack, Cao Jun's soldiers must be tired, in the next few days, this king will not let Cao Jun sleep well, now it depends on how long Cao Cao can hold on."

Speaking of this, he suddenly thought of Sima Yi, and then asked: "Xingba, as far as you know, have all the clans in Wancheng taken refuge in Cao Cao?" ”

"Yan Wang Rongyu, Cao Cao repeatedly exploited the powerful families in Wancheng, let them send food and troops to help defend the city, these heroes are already full of complaints, but because Cao Cao is too strong, so he dares to be angry and dare not speak, once Cao Cao is poor, these heroes will definitely beat the water dogs."

"Okay, this news of Xingba is very important, and later you will write down the distribution of the powerful forces in the city to this king, this king wants to know which people can be co-opted, and which people hate Cao Cao to the core, by the way, even the soldiers of the Cao army are all written down, maybe it will be useful."

"Dare to disobey?"

That night, Su Chen gave Gan Ning the wind in front of the soldiers of the whole army, this specification can be said to be very large, Gan Ning felt Su Chen's attention, and sighed again and again that he was not wrong.

After the banquet, Su Chen ordered someone to send Gan Ning a wine pill, Gan Ning was almost moved to cry, but he didn't know that these wine pills were issued on a monthly basis according to the general's grade, but Su Chen gave Gan Ning according to Xu Chu's standards.

In the next few days, Su Chen ordered the army to storm Wancheng, and there were more and more Cao troops killed and wounded in Wancheng, and at the same time, the atmosphere in the city was also very wrong, Cao Cao repeatedly suppressed Haoqiang, which had aroused the resistance of these Haoqiang, but no one took the lead, so there was no action.

At this moment, Sima Yi finally infiltrated Wancheng.
