"It's the military advisor who is afraid that you will make a mistake, so he specially ordered me to lead the army to rush and come to support!"

Zhao Yun's words made Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen stunned.

Yang Ling actually asked Zhao Yun to come over earlier to support them?

"Strategist!"

"Meet the Strategist!"

When Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen were stunned, the soldiers not far away saluted one after another, it turned out to be Yang Ling coming!

They came back to their senses and hurriedly saluted Yang Ling,

"Meet the Strategist!"

"No need to be polite."

Yang Ling waved his hand, his gaze swept over them,

"Are you alright?"

"Thank you for your concern, the last general only suffered a little skin injury."

Cao Zhen hurriedly arched his hand.

"That's good."

Yang Ling nodded.

Seeing that he didn't mean to pursue it, Cao Zhen couldn't help but speak,

"Strategist, today's thing is that the last general is too confident, and I hope that the military advisor will punish him!"

When he said this, he looked guilty and remorseful.

Today, Yang Ling ordered an ambush of Yuan's army, and the plan can be described as seamless.

But it was because he wanted to fight for the attack, and the result almost led to a failure!

Even if others don't say it, he can't help it.

"Strategist, Zidan is young and vigorous, he will inevitably make mistakes, and I hope you will forgive him this time."

Cao Xiu, who was on the side, hurriedly pleaded for Cao Zhen.

"Can you still call a young man if you are not angry?"

Yang Ling smiled slightly,

"If he lets Yuan Jun slip away today, then I will punish him severely to set an example. But fortunately, nothing went wrong, so I won't punish him today. ”

"But if there is a next time, don't blame the warlord for being ruthless!"

Cao Xiu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said to Cao Zhen,

"Don't hurry up, thank you, Strategist!"

"Thank you, Strategist!"

Cao Zhen said with some gratitude.

"Alright, let's take him down to heal his injuries."

Yang Ling said with a smile.

Watching Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu, Xiahou Shang and others leave with a thousand thanks, Zhao Yun, who was standing behind Yang Ling, suddenly laughed.

"Big brother, I finally understand why you chose to take Zidan and Wen Lie instead of General Gao and General Wen Yuan."

When Yang Ling first defected to Cao Cao, he only thought about making suggestions in secret and reaching the balance of the world.

But he didn't expect the soap to slip into people, and in the end he was forced to walk to the front of the stage.

In this case, in order to avoid becoming a victim of the power struggle, Yang Ling can only choose to make his own network.

Now, including Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Dun and other clan generals, as well as Zhang Xiu, Gan Ning and others, it can be said that most of the high-level generals in the army have a good relationship with Yang Ling.

If you convince the second generation of Cao Zhen and Cao Xiu, plus Yang Ling's friendship with Xun Yu, Guo Jia and others.

If Cao Pi wants to move him in the future, he must also think twice!

The method of subduing Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu and others is also very simple.

Since they are military generals, they attach great importance to military merits.

As long as they outperform them on the battlefield, they will naturally be convinced.

That's why Yang Ling chose to bring them.

"Those who understand me, Zilongye!"

Yang Ling and Zhao Yun looked at each other and smiled, everything was silent!

Twenty thousand Yuan troops were killed in the battle, thousands were killed, and more than 2,000 escaped, and the rest of the soldiers all surrendered with Lu Weihuang.

After Yang Ling incorporated the demotes, he didn't bother to deal with the demotes Lu Weihuang and Han Juzi.

Just wait for Cao Pi to lead the army to Guqiu and hand it over to him to send it down.

After Cao's army cleaned up the battlefield, Yang Ling led the army back to Guqiu and sent good news to Cao Pi in the rear.

……

The mighty Cao army marched on the official road, and the dust splashed almost obscured the sky.

"I don't know what the situation is over there with Yang Ling."

Cao Pi rode on a tall horse and chatted with Sima Yi beside him.

"His Royal Highness the Prince of the World is probably overestimating Yang Ling. This is just a day's work, no matter how powerful he is, I'm afraid he won't be able to take Guqiu City, right? ”

Sima Yi smiled disdainfully.

"That's exactly what Zhong Da said."

Cao Pi nodded.

At this moment, suddenly a war horse galloped from a distance.

After seeing Cao Pi, the cavalry on horseback immediately shouted,

"His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi, the military advisor has sent good news!"

Cao Pi and Sima Yi were both stunned, and subconsciously glanced at each other.

Good boys.

Yang Ling wouldn't really take Guqiu City so quickly, right?

Cao Pi hurriedly took the battle report from the messenger, read it carefully, and was immediately dumbfounded.

Seeing this situation, Sima Yi on the side couldn't help but say,

"His Royal Highness, what's wrong?"

"You...... See for yourself. ”

Cao Pi handed over the battle report.

Sima Yi glanced at it and was immediately dumbfounded.

Is this Yang Ling still stepping on a horse a human being?

In just one day's effort, not to mention taking Guqiu City, he also took the opportunity to ambush a wave of Yuan Xi's reinforcements.

Looking at the series of credits on the battle report, Sima Yi only felt a hot pain on his face.

He looked down on Yang Ling just now, but he didn't expect that the slap in the face would come so quickly!

Cao Pi's mood is also extremely complicated.

On the one hand, he hoped to defeat Yuan Xi and make military achievements, so as to stabilize the position of the prince.

On the other hand, he didn't want Yang Ling to be in the limelight and have too much prestige.

"Zhong Da don't be surprised, it must be that Yuan Jun is too wasteful and incompetent!"

Cao Pi comforted Sima Yi, but he didn't believe what he said.

Even if Yuan Jun is too wasteful and incompetent, he can get such brilliant results in one day, which is enough to prove Yang Ling's strength.

Sima Yi came back to his senses from the shock, pursed his lips, and didn't say anything.

As long as Cao Pi can inherit Cao Cao's position, no matter how good you Yang Ling is at leading troops to fight, so what?

After knowing that Yang Ling had taken Guqiu City, Cao Pi ordered the march to be accelerated.

Finally, before dark, they arrived at Valley Hill City.

"It's really hard for the son to travel all the way."

Yang Ling greeted Cao Pi with a smile.

"The military advisor is so bad, how can I work harder than you?"

Cao Pi also responded with a smile.

"To be able to win this time, it is also because I have the son of the world sitting in the rear, and I have confidence in my heart."

"The military advisor is too modest!"

The two of them with ghosts in their hearts, after blowing each other's business blows, Cao Xiu on the side stepped forward and arched his hand,

"His Royal Highness, I don't know what to do with Lu Weihuang and other generals?"

Cao Pi's eyes rolled, looked at Yang Ling, and said with a smile,

"According to the military division, how should I deal with it?"

"It's best to treat them well, so that after Yuan Xi's people know about it, they will also rush to take refuge first."

Yang Ling replied.

"Yes, what the military advisor said is very reasonable."

"It deserves to be preferential!"

Cao Xiu, Cao Zhen, Xiahou Shang and others all nodded in agreement.

However, Cao Pi smiled,

"If these two surrender directly, I will spare their lives."

"But they surrendered when they saw that there was no hope of escape, so they must not be tolerated!"

"Come on, behead them all, and send their heads back to Yuan Xi!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.

"Shizi, I'm afraid it's inappropriate to do this!"

Sima Yi hurriedly persuaded.
