Cao Ying outside the city.

Cao Ang, Zhao Yun, Gan Ning, and Xu Chu were gathering in the Chinese army camp.

Although their faces were calm, their anxious eyes and listening attentively from time to time undoubtedly exposed the tension in their hearts.

"Why do you say that the eldest brother has to take this risk himself?"

Xu Chu muttered,

"Wouldn't you just send someone there?"

"Didn't the eldest brother say it, that Jia Xu is a smart person, if you send someone casually, I'm afraid you won't be able to convince him, so you can only go in person."

Zhao Yun on the side explained.

Xu Chu sighed and said hatefully,

"If the eldest brother is in any danger, I will definitely cut off Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu's heads!"

"I don't need Brother Zhongkang to do this, I'll do it!"

Gan Ning also snorted coldly.

At this moment, a hearty laugh came,

"Who are you going to do?"

The words landed, but it was Yang Ling who strode in and looked at them with a smile.

"Teacher!"

"Big brother!"

"Brother Yang!"

Everyone in the tent was stunned at first, and then rushed forward excitedly.

"Teacher, it's great that you can come back safely!"

Looking at Yang Ling, who was safe and sound, Cao Ang also fell to the ground with a big stone in his heart.

Even if he didn't succeed in taking Wancheng, he didn't want Yang Ling to be in any danger!

After all, Yang Ling's importance is no less than that of a million army!

"Don't worry, I'm fine!"

Feeling everyone's concern for him, Yang Ling's heart warmed and said with a smile,

"Not only that, but I also persuaded Jia Xu that he agreed to persuade Zhang Xiu to surrender!"

"Really?"

Cao Ang and the others were suddenly overjoyed.

"Can I still lie to you?"

Yang Ling smiled and sat down on the collapse, picked up a cup of tea and took a sip,

"I believe that it won't be long before Zhang Xiu will send someone to deliver the letter."

Although it is not clear about the conversation between Jia Xu and Zhang Xiu, Yang Ling is still very confident in Jia Xu.

If even Zhang Xiu can't be convinced, then Jia Xu is still a poisoner in vain!

Sure enough.

Not long after Yang Ling and Cao Ang talked, several soldiers led Zhang Xiu's envoy over.

The meaning he expressed was very clear, Zhang Xiu was willing to sacrifice the city and surrender!

Yang Ling and Cao Ang had a conversation with the envoys, and finally decided that tomorrow afternoon, Zhang Xiu would open the city gate and surrender to Cao's army!

……

Next.

After lunch, Cao's army lined up on the bank of the Shushui River outside Wancheng.

After a while, the gate of Wancheng slowly opened, and a team of people walked out of the city.

The person at the head is Zhang Xiu.

I saw him pretending to tie himself with a rope, and walked towards Cao Ang with a guilty face.

"The sin will see the son!"

Without waiting for Cao Ang to reply, Zhang Xiu turned his head and said to Jia Xu,

"Mr. Wenhe, don't hurry up and return the things to the son."

Jia Xu on the side took a few steps forward and respectfully raised the embroidered ribbon.

These were all rewarded by the imperial court to his uncle Zhang Ji, and after Zhang Ji's death, he inherited them as a matter of course.

"General Zhang Xiu, what do you mean by this?"

Cao Ang hurriedly stepped forward, untied the rope on Zhang Xiu's body, and said with a smile,

"You are a general of the imperial court, and this time you are also lost, so good! The past is not to blame. ”

As he spoke, he took the seal ribbon from Jia Xu's hand and stuffed it into Zhang Xiu's arms.

"Childe is magnanimous, which really touches the embroidery!"

Zhang Xiu said and knelt down again.

Cao Ang also stretched out his hand to stop him.

The two were hypocritical, and after being polite, Zhang Xiu took the initiative to lead Cao Ang's horse.

The group headed towards the city and sat down in the county hall.

Jia Xu stared at it, but did not see Chen Jinnan's figure.

He couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart.

From last night's conversation, it can be seen that Chen Jinnan is quick to think and is by no means an idle person.

But why aren't you here today?

Is he busy with something else, or does Cao Ang not want to take him out?

However, Jia Xu is not a nosy person, so he didn't say anything, just sat quietly.

After everyone greeted each other, Cao Ang smiled and said,

"General Zhang Xiu, don't worry, after this is over, I will definitely write to my father and reward you heavily."

"Thank you, Childe!"

Zhang Xiu was overjoyed when she heard this, and the worry in her heart disappeared without a trace!

In order to celebrate today's event, Zhang Xiu specially set up a dinner party to entertain Cao Ang and his party.

However, it was still early, and after the talks, Cao Ang and the others also returned to the residence arranged by Zhang Xiu.

Yang Ling had been waiting here for a long time.

"Teacher, everything is going well today!"

As soon as Cao Ang saw him, he smiled excitedly,

"This time I was able to win Wancheng, and the teacher is indispensable!"

This time he sent troops to resist Zhang Xiu, but it was the first time Cao Ang led his troops to fight.

Being able to easily take Wancheng without bloodshed is a great achievement!

Although it is with Yang Ling's help, his father will definitely impress himself!

"The son is polite."

Yang Ling chuckled and winked at him,

"It's all your work, you know?"

Cao Ang immediately understood what he meant.

Hey, I have a teacher everywhere, but I don't like to show my head.

All the credit is given to others!

"Students understand!"

"That's good."

Yang Ling nodded and asked,

"Since Zhang Xiu sincerely surrendered, why didn't you just take Wancheng over?"

"The student just wants Zhang Xiu to be relieved."

Cao Ang replied.

Yang Ling pondered for a moment and nodded,

"Okay."

In fact, there is nothing wrong with Cao Ang doing this.

Zhang Xiu surrendered sincerely, if Cao Ang forced his military power and Wancheng to pass, it would only make him uneasy, and it would be unusual.

But Yang Ling is familiar with the Three Kingdoms, and knows that in history, Boss Cao was too generous to Zhang Xiu and did not relieve him of his military power, which eventually led to the defeat of the army, and Dian Wei and Cao Ang died in battle.

But fortunately, now Cao Ang has his own assistance.

Reverse his fate so that he does not end up dead!

Thinking of this, Yang Ling asked,

"Son-in-law, Zhang Xiu has an aunt Zou, do you know?"

Cao Ang was stunned, he didn't expect Yang Ling to suddenly bring up this topic.

"Looks like there is, right? What's wrong, teacher? ”

"This woman must not move, do you know what I mean?"

Yang Ling admonished.

Cao Ang felt a little inexplicable, but he still said honestly,

"The student got it!"

"I'll go rest for a while."

Yang Ling stretched his waist and left directly.

Only Cao Ang, who was confused, was left.

At this moment, Xu Chu walked into the lobby with a young man and saluted Cao Ang.

"Son-in-law!"

"Cousin!"

Cao Ang woke up and nodded,

"General Zhongkang, An Min, you are here!"

The young man who followed Xu Zhu was Cao Cao's nephew and Cao Ang's cousin Cao Anmin.

He was friendly with Cao Ang, and this time Cao Ang went on the expedition, he also took him with him as his right-hand man.

"What is my cousin thinking, why is he so distracted?"

Cao Angmin said curiously.
