A few days later, Su Chen's army arrived at Bowang, joined forces with Xu Rong, and after listening to Xu Rong's report, the expression on Su Chen's face was not very good, Xu Rong sent 20,000 soldiers to ambush the Cao army, but he didn't expect Gan Ning to turn defeat into victory, not only caused thousands of casualties to the Yan army, but also beheaded a general of the Yan army, which made Su Chen's face very unpleasant. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

He has been fighting in the south and north for more than ten years, and it seems that he has not suffered such a big loss, especially when his own forces are superior, and he doesn't know where Cao Cao took Gan Ning under his command, he thought that it would only take a little effort to take Nanyang, but now it seems that there will be a tough battle to be fought.

"Now that the Cao army has been ambushed by our army, it seems that it will not be easy to go out of the city, the walls of Wancheng are tall, if it is a strong attack, I am afraid that it will be very difficult, if you have any ideas, you may as well speak freely."

"King Yan, the last general is guilty!" Xu Rong knelt down and pleaded: "It is the last general who underestimated the enemy, if it weren't for this, it would not have greatly boosted the morale of the Cao army, and even broke the general of the car, and the last general was willing to be punished." ”

"General Xu doesn't have to be like this, Gan Ning is brave, not a crime of war, General Xu planned properly, what is the crime? Hurry up, please! ”

"It's... The last will obey! Xu Rong stood up in shame and stepped aside.

Perhaps in order to alleviate the embarrassing atmosphere on the field, or to make meritorious contributions, I saw Guo Tu come out and say: "King Yan, Cao Cao has lost his Bo Wang, and now he can only trap Wancheng, our army is ten times that of Cao's army, it is better to surround Wancheng, once Cao's army runs out of food, Wancheng will not be attacked by itself." ”

Guo Tu's proposal was a steady approach, but this did not fit Su Chen's thoughts, his original intention was to solve Cao Cao in the shortest possible time, so as to free up his hands, destroy Yuan Shu, and then plan Jingzhou.

Seeing Su Chen nodded noncommittally, Guo Tu retreated back to his original position in a daze, since the surrender of Su Chen, Guo Tu has been a little meritorious, on the one hand, it is to consolidate the status of the Guo family, and on the other hand, he does not want to be beautift by Guo Jia, Guo Jia's side branch.

But Guo Tu gradually discovered that Su Chen and Yuan Shao are completely different, Yuan Shao is wide on the outside and taboo on the inside, hesitant in case of trouble, in other words, he has no opinion, but Su Chen is different, Su Chen is a very assertive person, many times he has already made up his mind in his heart, but he just said it through someone else's mouth.

Guo Tu, Xu You, and Xin Bi were all people who surrendered, Xu You was appointed by Su Chen as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and he ascended and descended secretly, but he really didn't believe in Xu You's character, and put him in the temporarily insignificant position of the Ministry of Rites and hang him high, which can be regarded as a thousand dollars to buy horse bones.

And Fu Zhu, Guo Tu, and Xin Bi were all put by him in the military plane, mainly because of the intelligence of the three of them, and this time Fu Zhu did not follow him, but he put Guo Tu by his side, which was also to express his attitude to the Guo family, and more importantly, to show his importance to Guo Jia.

Guo Jia naturally saw this clearly, but he didn't immediately open his mouth to supplement Guo Tu, even though he had already thought of countermeasures in his heart.

Su Chen turned his gaze to Lu Xun and asked, "Bo Yan, do you also express your opinion?" ”

was named, Lu Xun, who has always been so low-key that he couldn't be more low-key, quietly came out and responded: "Back to King Yan, my subordinates think that Cao Cao is only relying on the benefits of the city, and the benefits of the city are external forces, and the external forces cannot be sustained, Wancheng has been operating in the hands of Yuan Shu for several years, Cao Cao has just occupied Wancheng, and the situation in Wancheng must not be completely controlled. ”

"Hmm." Su Chen still didn't say anything, just responded lightly, and then Lu Xun also returned to his original position, but his opinion was refreshing to hear from the Wenchen generals present.

"Zhongda, tell me too, what's the trick?"

After Sima Yi was named, he walked out without humility or arrogance, and first gave Su Chen a bow salute, and then said: "King Yan, there is no clever plan for his subordinates, but there is a clumsy plan, now only Gan Ning can be alone under Cao Cao's generals, and the rest are not to be afraid, Gan Ning is alone, and it is difficult for both to be defeated with four hands, and on the other hand, our army, the generals are like clouds, our army can give full play to this advantage, and force Cao Jun to go out of the city for a decisive battle. If Cao Jun can't take care of both the beginning and the end, Wancheng will be broken sooner or later. ”

"Hmmm! Zhong Da's words are not unreasonable, to be honest, if it weren't for Cao Caowen Xun Yu and Wu Gan Ning, this king would not have taken him in his eyes at all. After that, Su Chen looked at Guo Jia and asked, "Fengxiao, everyone has expressed their opinions, what do you have to add?" ”

"Lord, my subordinates think that Zhong Da and Bo Yan's plan is feasible, so you might as well take a two-pronged approach, see the moves, and see how Cao Jun will deal with it."

"Well, in that case, the generals will obey the order!"

"The last general!"

"Xu Rong, Li Dian, Yu Ban, and Xu Chu, the four of you led an army of 50,000 respectively to attack the four gates of east, west, south and north."

"No!" The four of them responded in unison, but Li Dian and Yu Ban had some bitterness on their faces.

This is also unbearable for them, Su Chen has promoted and reused the two of them over the years, and has also taken great care of their families, and their heirs have entered Yanjing Academy after enrollment, and he believes that the two will have a choice between the new master and the old master.

"Sima Yi obeys orders!"

"The subordinates are here!"

"Let you secretly contact the wealthy family of Wancheng and respond to our army, if this matter is successful, you will be indispensable!"

"The subordinates live up to the high hopes of King Yan!"

The reason why Sima Yi was sent to Wancheng was because Sima Yi was not famous and would not be noticed, although Lu Xun was not famous, but compared to Sima Yi, Su Chen felt that he was more capable of this task.

On the second day, 200,000 troops besieged Wancheng, and Cao Cao was like a great enemy, mobilizing the private soldiers of the major families to defend the city while personally going to the city to supervise the battle.

Xu Chu was responsible for attacking the North Gate, which was the most important gate and the most guarded gate, Cao Cao did not dare to relax, and sent Gan Ning to guard it personally.

Seeing the Ganzi flag on the city tower, Xu Chu immediately slashed and scolded: "Listen to the thief on the city tower, your grandfather Xu Chu is here, hurry up and let that Jinfan thief come out and fight with his grandfather for three hundred rounds, don't be a turtle with a shrunken head." ”

was scolded by Xu Chu like this, Gan Ning's subordinates hurriedly went to inform Gan Ning, in fact, he didn't want his subordinates to report, Gan Ning had already heard it, he came out to take a look, only to hear Xu Chu's scolding getting more and more ugly, and almost scolded his ancestors for eighteen generations, how could he bear this tone.

"General, no!" Gan Ning wanted to go out of the city to fight with Xu Chu, and Su Fei, the deputy general beside him, hurriedly persuaded him: "General, Duke Cao has an order, not to go out of the city to fight, just guard the city gate, then Xu Chu must be to provoke the general, the general must not be fooled!" ”

When Su Fei said this, Gan Ning also felt reasonable, and immediately stopped thinking about leaving the city, and returned to the city tower to continue listening.

"Bird thief Gan Ning, hurry up and come out to fight with your grandfather for three hundred rounds, what kind of hero is it to be a shrinking turtle in the establishment, could it be that your kung fu was taught by your master, and all you learned was some flower boxing and embroidered legs?"

"Hahahaha!" Xu Chu scolded, and the soldiers around him laughed, which made Gan Ning grit his teeth in anger.

"No, General Ben can't bear it anymore, take my weapon, and watch General Ben go out and slaughter this thief."

"A general shall not be ......"

"Don't stop me, Su Fei, you sit in the city tower, once an enemy approaches, shoot arrows to death!"

"It's... Promise! ”

Gan Ning rode out of the city alone, and he didn't talk nonsense, so he slashed at Xu Chu with a knife.

"Good time!"

Xu Chu was quite excited when he saw him killing, and immediately slapped his horse and went towards Gan Ning to kill!

"Bang!"

The two knives collided, and Gan Ning obviously felt that this person was not the same as the previous chariot, but as soon as he fought, he knew that this general was not easy to deal with.

"Rejoice! is worthy of Gan Xingba, who beheaded the car, you are qualified to fight with this general! ”

Xu Chu is very arrogant, but he does have arrogant capital, one of his feet has already stepped into the door of the Shenwu Realm, and he is quite interested in competing with masters.

"Bitter!" Xu Chu became more and more excited, and he didn't notice Gan Ning's aggrieved look at all, Gan Ning used ten percent of his strength in every move, but Xu Chu seemed to be at ease, but it once put him in danger, which made him already have the mind to retreat.

But where would Xu Chu allow him to slip away, and finally forced Gan Ning out, of course Xu Chu wanted to kill him, and slashed at Gan Ning with a knife, Rao is Gan Xingba was proud of his strong martial arts, and he was also forced by Xu Chu to be unable to take it back.

"Dang!"

Gan Ning didn't pay attention, a piece of his shoulder armor was cut off by Xu Chu, and he immediately turned his horse's head and was about to return to the city.

Where would Xu Chu let him succeed so easily, and directly reined in the horse to chase after him, the horse under Xu Chu's crotch was a special war horse personally rewarded by Su Chen, and Chitu had a fight, Gan Ning's horse speed was Xu Chu's opponent.

However, after two or three breaths, Gan Ning was caught up by Xu Chu, and Gan Ning had to fight with Xu Chu again.

Su Fei, who was watching the battle from the city tower, had already discovered Gan Ning's situation, and seeing that Gan Ning was not Xu Chu's opponent, he hurriedly beckoned Erlang to go out of the city to rescue Gan Ning.

"Brothers, follow me out of the city and rescue the general!"

"Kill!"

Su Fei came out of the city with his soldiers, and Xu Chu's deputy general Xu Ding immediately called tens of thousands of Erlang to kill him directly, and the two armies were quickly strangled together, and blood flowed like a river.

"Quick, pull the drawbridge up!" A lieutenant general on the city tower saw that the army that Su Fei brought out of the city was drowned in the sea of people, and more and more Yan troops attacked and killed the city gate, and quickly ordered to pull up the drawbridge and close the city gate.

"But, General, General Gan is still outside the city!"

"Humph! Gan Ning didn't do his best, and disregarded the trust of the prime minister, and hurriedly pulled up the drawbridge, closed the city gate, and never let the Yan army enter the city! ”

"No!"

After all, the drawbridge was still pulled up, the city gate was closed, and the general on the city tower was none other than Cao Cao's former subordinate Zhao Rong.

Zhao Rong is one of the eight captains of the West Garden, after Cao Cao's defeat, Zhao Rong was more and more relied on by Cao Cao, but since Gan Ning came, Zhao Rong's status has plummeted, which makes him not hold a grudge, now Gan Ning violated the order and went out of the city to fight privately, he abandoned the car to protect the commander for the safety of Wancheng, even if Cao Cao knew, he could not blame him.

Seeing Gan Ning, who was under siege, Zhao Rong's face showed a smile.
