Chapter 351: Conditional Surrender
Gao Ran led his army to meet Zhang He.
The two armies met less than twenty miles from Chenliu.
Seeing Cao Jun from afar, Gao Ran stopped his horse.
Cao Jun is getting closer and closer, and he can already see that it is Zhang He who led the army here.
"Zhang Junyi!" Pointing at Zhang He with a knife, Gao Ran asked: "You received the favor of Yuan Gong, why did you rebel once?" ”
"Yuan Gong listened to the villain's words and killed a certain family, how could such and such be willing to die for it?" Zhang He said: "Hebei villains are rampant, General Gao doesn't know? ”
"Sharp teeth!" Gao Ran said angrily: "Yuan Gong didn't check for a while, and there were some things that did something wrong. If they are all like this, what is the meaning of love? What is morality? ”
"General Gao, can you know about the battle of Puyang?" Zhang He said: "The fifth prince has made great contributions to the Yuan family, and has been repeatedly ordered to be in danger, and it is difficult for Cao Gong's soldiers to break through the city, but they were defeated by their own family traps when they broke through!" The fifth prince is loyal, righteous, benevolent and filial to end up like this, how is General Gao compared to him? ”
"Shut up!" Mentioning Yuan Xu, Gao Ran said angrily: "The princes of Hebei, a certain only admires the five sons!" The five sons are filial piety and righteousness, and they are generous and benevolent. You rebelled against Yuan Gong, but you dared to mention the name of Gongzi! Childe has a spirit in the sky, if he knows it, how can he be blind? Someone asked you, do you know if you are ashamed? ”
"You respect the fifth son, don't you respect him?" Zhang He glared: "Back then, a certain and his son once broke the enemy side by side......"
"So what? Now you're just a traitor! Gao Ran interrupted Zhang He: "Although it is a robe in the past, we are enemies when we meet today." Zhang Junyi, how about fighting with a certain person for 300 rounds? ”
"The general is determined to do so, and he should be accompanied!"
Zhang He shook the reins and rode his horse to Gao Ran to kill.
Gao Ran is not weak. The horse rushed up and fought against Zhang He.
Both of them are Hebei Tingzhu martial arts. Rushing and killing in the two armies, the sky is dark.
It was just after noon when the two armies met. Gao Ran and Zhang He fought until the sun sank.
Seeing that the sky was darkening, Zhang He pushed his blade forward and pushed Gao Lan away.
"It's getting late, it's better to fight again tomorrow!"
Gao Ran snorted coldly: "Even if you and I kill for three days and three nights, there is no result. Why don't we arrange our troops early tomorrow morning, and how about the victory or defeat in a battle? ”
"What General Gao says, then so be." Zhang He put away his blade and returned to the Cao army array.
Gao Ran also circled his war horse and ordered Yuan's army to camp.
Night.
Gao Ran was sleeping deeply, and a soldier shouted from outside the tent: "General." Oh no! The Cao army raided Chenliu, and the besieging soldiers of our army have been defeated! ”
Taken aback, Gao Ran hurriedly sat up.
Just as he was about to put on his cloak, there were shouts of killing outside.
Cao Jun took advantage of the middle of the night to kill him.
Suddenly attacked, the soldiers of the Yuan army scattered and fled.
There was a commotion in the barracks.
Hurried out of the camp, Gao Ran was about to gather his soldiers to fight back, when a long sword rested on his neck.
It was Zhang He who held the sword.
Forcing Gao Ran to take two steps back, he said in a cold voice: "General Gao, what do you have to say if you fall into a certain hand?" ”
"If the general wants to kill, just do it. What do you do with a lot of noise? ”
"You and I used to be comrades, how can we bear to do it? The general might as well serve Cao Gong......"
Gao Ran snorted coldly: "The general admits that the thief is his father for his own selfishness, how can he be a person who betrays the Lord and seeks glory?" ”
"Turning your back on the Lord for glory?" Zhang He asked coldly: "General Gao is righteous Ling Ran, and I will ask you." Once Yuan Gong dies, who is the master in Hebei? ”
Gao Ran was stunned for a moment and did not answer.
Once Yuan Shao died. Hebei should be Yuan Tan in charge.
But Yuan Shang secretly moved a lot of hands and feet, and Yuan Tan was transferred to Qingzhou. He couldn't see what the situation would be in the future.
"Yuan Xiansi is a generous person, if he becomes the lord of Hebei, the general will still have a way to live." Zhang He said: "The general and the five sons are generous. Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang did not hesitate to be reprimanded by Yuan Gong, and they also wanted to do this poison in Puyang, which shows that they hate the fifth prince to the core! If the two of them get Hebei, what chance does the general think there is to survive? ”
Zhang He's words covered Gao Ran with cold sweat.
"General Gao, do you know why he voted for Cao Gong?"
"Why?"
Thinking that Hebei might fall into the hands of Yuan Shang in the future, Gao Ran's tone was a little better.
"A certain and the fifth prince once defeated Zhang Yan in Taihang." Zhang He said: "How can you forget the love of the son!" ”
"That being the case, why did you turn your back on Hebei?"
"It's not that a certain person has turned his back on Hebei, but that Hebei has turned his back on the fifth prince and turned his back on a certain one!" Zhang He gritted his teeth and said: "If the fifth prince does not die, he will definitely not rebel!" ”
Gao Ran was stunned and looked at Zhang He in amazement.
"The grievances of the death of the fifth son, since we are kind to him, how can we see him wronged? Raise troops to kill Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang, you and I are both powerless. The only way to avenge Childe is to serve Cao Gong! ”
"But Yuan Gong ......"
"To surrender or not to surrender to General Gao?" Zhang He asked, and the long sword was closer to Gao Lan's neck.
Gao Ran did not respond.
"General Zhang!" A Cao army ran over and said, "The Yuan army has been defeated, and General Cao Hong has relieved the siege of Chen Liu, and is rushing here!" ”
Putting away his long sword, Zhang He motioned for Cao Jun to retreat, and asked Gao Ran again, "To surrender or not to surrender?" ”
"What if it falls? What if you don't fall? ”
"If the general surrenders, he will treat him with courtesy. If it doesn't fall, let it go! ”
"Will you let so-and-so go?" Gao Ran was stunned.
"When the general returns to Hebei, I don't know what will happen!"
Gao Ran's face was a little ugly, and he said to Zhang He: "If you can allow it, you are willing to surrender to Cao Gong!" ”
"General, please!"
"Break Hebei, don't embarrass Yuan Gong!" Gao Ran said: "Don't kill it!" ”
Zhang He was silent.
Even if he promised Gao Ran, once Hebei was broken, the control was in Cao Cao's hands.
What he can't do, how can he promise lightly?
"Can't do it?" Gao Ran asked.
"Don't hide it from General Gao, a certain is a general with troops, how did he become the master after breaking Hebei?" Zhang He said: "This matter still needs to be discussed by the general and Cao Gong in detail!" ”
"After seeing Cao Cao, can you still go?"
"Can the general forget Guan Yunchang?"
Speaking of Guan Yu, Gao Ran's face changed.
Guan Yu was also captured by Cao Cao at the beginning, and finally returned to Liu Bei.
Cao Cao's magnanimity also spread to the world because of this incident, and more heroes and heroes were willing to serve in front of the account.
After hesitating for a moment, Gao Ran said: "Since this is the case, I hope that Jun Yi will ask Cao Gong first!" ”
Gao Ran was relieved, Zhang He was immediately overjoyed, and instructed Cao Jun on the side: "Be kind to General Gao's subordinates, and present it to Cao Gong immediately!" ”
A Cao soldier left in response.
The army led to Cangting, where Cao Cao was on his way and got the news of breaking the vanguard of Yuan's army.
To his delight, Gao Ran was also captured by Zhang He.
Hebei Tingzhu is very brave, and what he gets is another boost!
Knowing Gao Ran's request, Cao Cao's face changed, and he immediately said: "A certain and the original are old friends, and when you get to Hebei, how can you harm your old friends?" (To be continued.) )
