"General Gan, don't be angry, it's okay for me and General Gan to drink three glasses of water instead of wine?" Zhang Xiu persuaded.

Gan Ning stomped his feet, sat down, and said to Zhang Xiu: "I can't get along with this Liu Ye, he always picks bones in eggs and makes trouble for me." ”

Zhang Xiu said: "These literati, unlike our martial artists, naturally can't talk about going together. Hey, I was about to meet General Ma, but I didn't expect General Ma to leave, and he will be back in a few days. ”

Gan Ning patted Zhang Xiu's shoulder and said: "General Zhang, don't worry, Ma Hong and I have been brothers for many years, it doesn't matter if he doesn't come back, with me Gan Ning here, it's okay." ”

"Then thank you General Gan." Zhang Xiudao.

"Hey, by the way, General Zhang, why did you betray Cao Cao?" Gan Ning asked.

Zhang Xiu sighed and said, "It's a long story! In the battle of Wancheng, I killed Cao Cao's son and killed Cao Cao's beloved general Dian Wei with my own hands, which on the surface Cao Cao was not bad to me, but his people looked at me coldly, take this Xiahou Yuan as an example, as soon as Cao Cao left, he asked me to lead the army to attack, and only gave me 3,000 soldiers. As you all know, you are well defended, and if you let me lead 3,000 soldiers to attack, I will be sent to my death. I refused, but this Xiahou Yuan said that I violated the military order and wanted to deal with my military law, and I had to fight for my life. Ay! To tell the truth, I was also cheated by the old fox Jia Xu, I think that Cao Cao wanted to use Xiahou Yuan's hand to kill me. ”

Gan Ning patted Zhang Xiu's shoulder and said: "Hey, I fought with General Zhang that day, and I also saw it, Huang Zhong released a cold arrow at General Zhang behind his back, Xiahou Yuan and they all saw it, but they didn't say it, if it weren't for Lejin's little man reminding General Zhang, I'm afraid it would ......."

"Yes, if it weren't for Lejin, my Zhang Xiu would have died!" Zhang Xiu spoke, took a sip of water, and tears flowed out.

At this moment, Liu Ye, who had already left, turned around and returned, and when he saw Zhang Xiu and Gan Ning drinking together, he was very angry, and looked at Gan Ning angrily and said, "General Gan, you actually drink." ”

"Wine?" Gan Ning looked at Liu Ye and said, "Where is the wine?" ”

"Isn't there wine in the glass?" Liu Ye asked rhetorically.

"Come on! You come to smell whether it's wine or water. Gan Ning sneered.

Liu Ye picked up Gan Ning's quilt and smelled it, picked up Zhang Xiu's cup and smelled it, and finally left with an embarrassed face.

Gan Ning saw Liu Ye leaving, so he took out a jar of wine from the tent, made a gesture of booing at Zhang Xiu, and then drank bitterly with Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu couldn't refuse, so she had to drink with Gan Ning.

After the two drank most of the wine, Gan Ning's face was flushed, and he began to complain about Liu Ye again.

Zhang Xiu took the opportunity to tentatively ask Gan Ning: "General Gan, Cao Cao led the army to besiege Chang'an, and we have to prepare early." ”

"Don't worry, it's okay, Ma Hong has already planned to deal with it." Gan Ning continued to hold his glass and laugh while drinking.

"Dare to ask General Gan to tell you what strategy General Ma has to deal with Cao Cao." Zhang Xiu asked tentatively.

"Ma Hong had already guessed that Cao Cao was going to besiege Chang'an, and he had already taken a large number of men and horses to garrison near Chang'an in advance, and ambushed them along the road. Cao Cao... If you dare to attack Chang'an, you will definitely make him die without a place to be buried. ”

Gan Ning stretched out his fingers, his clothes were drunk, and after a few more glasses of wine, he lay on the table and stopped getting up.

Zhang Xiu called Gan Ning twice, and saw that Gan Ning did not respond, so he walked out of the camp, and just entered the camp not far away, he heard Liu Ye and a young general discussing things, Zhang Xiu hurriedly hid aside and eavesdropped on the conversation between the two.

"Uncle Shi, you said that Zhang embroidered our army, is it possible to surrender by fraud, should we send someone to monitor him?"

Hu Du said to Liu Ye.

Liu Ye said softly: "It's possible, so the future actions must be kept secret, and you must not let Zhang Xiu know that your teacher Ma Hong led the troops to Chang'an, do you know?" We now have less than 6,000 people in our army, and if Xiahou Yuan comes to attack, I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with it. ”

"Uncle, the student knows."

"Don't be in a hurry to send someone to monitor Zhang Xiu, that Zhang Xiu is strong in martial arts, he will definitely notice it, don't startle the snake."

Next, Hu Du spoke in a very small voice, and Zhang Xiu couldn't hear it with his ears pricked up, so he had to go back to his camp.

Three days later, Zhang Xiu had basically figured out the deployment of Ganning's army, and found out that Ganning's army had only 6,000 soldiers, so he passed the news to Xiahou Yuan.

Xiahou Yuan first sent someone to deliver a letter to Cao Cao, and then in the early morning of the next day, the soldiers were divided into two parts, Xiahou Yuan led an army of 20,000, Cao Hong and Zhang He led an army of 15,000 to attack Ganning, leaving Cao Xiu and Xu Shu to guard the military camp.

Xiahou Yuan and Cao Honglian pulled out ten camps in Ganning, Zhang Xiu asked Gan Ning for battle, expressing his willingness to lead the army to block Xiahou Yuan with the vanguard, Liu Ye objected, but Gan Ning insisted on letting Zhang Xiu be the vanguard, Liu Ye was angry on the spot and scolded Gan Ning.

Zhang Xiu led 1,000 troops to block Xiahou Yuan, and as soon as he met Xiahou Yuan, he opened the camp gate and let Xiahou Yuan enter the camp.

When Xiahou Yuan and Zhang He met and went to Ganning's main camp, they found that the door of Ganning's main camp was wide open, and when they looked into the camp from the outside, the camp was empty.

"Did this Gan Ning lead the army and escape?"

The wind was very strong, and Xiahou Yuan's beard was messy, and Xiahou Yuan straightened his beard and laughed.

Cao Hong also laughed and said, "Zhang Xiu, you have made a great contribution this time." ”

"The two generals are careful and deceitful, this military camp is built on three sides surrounded by mountains, if you enter the camp, if you encounter an ambush, it is unimaginable." Zhang He said cautiously.

Xiahou Yuan stroked his beard, thought seriously for a while, and said: "Gan Ning's army is only more than 6,000 people, and we have killed three or four thousand soldiers along the road, and Gan Ning has no more soldiers available. ”

"General Zhang is too worried."

Zhang Xiu smiled and looked at Zhang He, he and Zhang He are both generals, and they are both surnamed Zhang, and their relationship is good in private, but the relationship with another general surnamed Zhang is a little tense.

Xiahou Yuan led the troops into the barracks, wanting to collect the grain, grass and utensils that Gan Ning had no time to transport, but found that the camp was empty, not only was there no one, not even food and grass, but there were a lot of black particles and forage scattered on the ground, these particles also had a pungent smell, Xiahou Yuan suddenly felt a chill in his heart, and felt that the situation was wrong.

Suddenly, at this time, he heard a sound of breaking the air, Xiahou Yuan looked up, and saw the rockets in the sky shooting down the wind from the mountains on both sides, shooting into the barracks.

Gan Ning personally led 10,000 soldiers to defend the only exit of the barracks with 3,000 elite Red Axe Iron Army.

In an instant, the barracks were full of flames, explosions continued, and due to the heavy ambush, Xiahou Yuan's army was in chaos! Xiahou Yuan, Zhang He, Cao Hong, and Zhang Xiu rushed out of the camp with their soldiers, wanting to break through Ganning's defense line.

Gan Ning gave an order.

The crossbowmen behind the Red Axe Iron Army shot feather arrows in the sky towards Xiahou Yuan's army.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

Gan Ning waved the spear in his hand and laughed: "Xiahou Yuan, you have fallen for my family's military advisor's plan. ”

Liu Ye stood next to Gan Ning with a smile on his face.

When Zhang Xiu saw this scene, she instantly understood, and her eyes were red.

"Brothers! Break out of the encirclement with me and fight with them!! ”

Seeing that the situation was not right, Xiahou Yuan did not dare to drag it out any longer, so he had to take the lead and lead his troops to break through.
