After saying this, Cao Hong was about to leave for the east gate of the city to find his subordinates, his wife and children.

Chen Yan suddenly said: "But I have already released the news, saying that you, General Cao Hong, opened the city gate and gave Xu Cheng to me, and there are thousands of witnesses to this matter, so I can't say for sure how Cao Cao will deal with you at that time." ”

Hearing this, Cao Hong hesitated again, and scolded angrily in his heart: "his mother!" This stale Yan is really poisonous! How can it be so vicious! ”

Cao Hong hesitated in his heart, and his feet naturally slowed down, Cao Cao's means Cao Hong understood better than anyone else, although he had saved Cao Cao's life, and Cao Cao was a brother, but ...... Cao Cao hated others betraying him the most in his life, and when Cao Cao knew that he would dedicate Xu Cheng to Chen Yan, would he really spare his own life?

Thinking of this, Cao Hong's footsteps were no longer moving, and he was really afraid that Cao Cao would cut himself off with a thought.

But Cao Cao is his brother after all!

Mengde ...... Meng De ...... "Cao Hong silently recited Cao Cao's name in his heart, and when he walked, it seemed that he had been filled with lead.

Cao Hong slowly recalled in his heart that he and Cao Cao started from scratch, jointly pursued Dong Zhuo and was almost killed by Xu Rong, and the scenes of the past gradually filled Cao Hong's mind.

"No, I'm going to find Meng De, even if he cuts me, I'm going to go back to see Meng De for the last time!"

Thinking of this, Cao Hong made up his mind, never looked back at the white-haired big demon king Chen Yan again, and ran wildly, heading straight to the east gate of the city.

Chen Yan looked at Cao Hong's back, sighed slightly, and didn't say much.

After a while, Guo Jia slowly walked to Chen Yan's side, looked at Cao Hong's back, and asked, "Lord?" Just let him go? ”

Chen Yan nodded and said: "Let him go, Cao Hong is not a great talent, he is just a small person, and killing him will have no effect on Cao Cao, but will put it in the name of being able to achieve the benevolence and righteousness of our army." Be a man and leave a line, and see each other in the future. ”

Guo Jia nodded and smiled: "The lord is far-sighted, and this move is clever. ”

Before the words fell, suddenly a general ran to the school and shouted: "Report!! The lord, Ji Ling, the general of the Yuan Shu army, went down to the village thirty miles outside Xu City, the army was in order, about 300,000 people, I don't know what happened! ”

When Chen Yan and Guo Jia heard this, they both frowned, the two glanced at each other, and Chen Yan asked, "Why did you come so soon?" I'm afraid it's not to congratulate us on taking Xucheng, right? ”

Guo Jia nodded and said: "Ji Ling has been leading troops to wander around Xucheng, and he didn't come to help us attack the city, I think he must have been instructed by Yuan Shu to wait for us and Cao Hong to take advantage of the fisherman's profits, but now he didn't expect us to break the city so quickly." ”

Chen Yan said: "In this case, could it be that he is coming to seize the city?" We're still allies, Yuan Shu shouldn't have turned his face so blatantly, right? ”

Guo Jia shook his head and sneered: "This is not accurate. Xu Cheng is the closest to Runan, Yuan Shu has long been greedy here, plus he is insatiable, it is very likely that Ji Ling will come over to seize the city, lord, we must be careful. ”

Chen Yan listened to Guo Jia's analysis, and his eyes gradually swelled with killing intent, and he said slowly: "What a Yuan Shu, if you want to grab food, as long as Ji Ling dares to make a move, I will care if he Yuan Shu or Ji Ling, I will let him have no return!" ”

Guo Jialang laughed loudly: "I will definitely help the lord!" ”

The two of them have discussed and decided, and Chen Yan decided to go out of the city to meet Ji Ling, after all, they are allies at this time, so it is not good to be too cold.

Although Chen Yan was brave, he was not a fool, and immediately sent a messenger to tell Ji Ling that only five hundred people were needed to meet fifteen miles outside the city.

Although Ji Ling didn't know what medicine was sold in Chen Yan's gourd, he was an ally after all, so he couldn't shirk it, so he immediately led five hundred light cavalry, rode his horse and whipped, and came towards the agreed place.

Chen Yan also only brought 500 iron horsemen, and together with Huang Zhong and Guo Jia, they set off towards the agreed position.

Although Yuan Shu is a sinister and cunning person, Ji Ling under his command is a rare real person.

Ji Ling has a Chinese face, his beard is like flying, his eyes are like a leader, he is holding a giant axe that opens the mountain, and he has a red horse under his crotch, and he looks extraordinary.

Chen Yan looked at it from afar, and saw that there were only about five hundred people behind Ji Ling, and immediately nodded and said to the people behind him: "This Ji Ling's character is not bad, if he has made an appointment with five hundred, then it will be five hundred, unlike Yuan Shu, who is capricious." ”

Guo Jia said with a smile: "It's just that the upward and downward effects, since Yuan Shu is a person with little integrity, the lord still has to be careful that Ji Ling also backtracks." ”

Chen Yan nodded yes, but Huang Zhong sneered: "Forgive him if he dares to come nonsense, but I won't spare him with the bow and arrow in my hand!" ”

Everyone laughed, which showed that they were very confident in Huang Zhong's archery.

Gradually, the two armies converged, and when they were dozens of paces apart, they all stopped at a tacit understanding.

Ji Ling took the lead and said loudly: "Ji Ling, the former general under the command of Yuan Shu, the assassin of Yuzhou, is here, may I ask which one is General Chen Yan, please come forward and see you!" ”

After saying that, Ji Ling urged the war horse and took a few steps forward, in order to show his sincerity, he specially put the giant axe under the horse and did not bring it.

After a while, Ji Ling saw a silver-haired general in the opposite military formation urging his horse forward, and said loudly: "In Xia Chenyan, I have seen General Ji Ling!" ”

Ji Ling was puzzled in his heart, and said secretly: "Isn't Chen Yan a young hero?" How do you look like an old man? It's just that although this person is full of gray hair, his voice is very young, strange......"

When Chen Yan approached, Ji Ling suddenly found that except for the silver hair in front of him, the rest of the appearance was a teenager, and his eyebrows were handsome and extraordinary, Ji Ling's heart moved, and he was even more shocked by Chen Yan's appearance.

Ji Ling was shocked in his heart, but he didn't want to lose his manners, he hurriedly bowed over and said, "It's better to be famous than to see it, General Chen Yan really looks different from a mortal." ”

Chen Yan smiled slightly, waved his hand and said, "General Ji Ling doesn't have to be polite, what's so extraordinary about my appearance?" It's just that the hair is graying a little earlier. ”

Ji Ling was slightly stunned by Chen Yan's words, and thought: "Although this guy is young, he speaks with an old spicy. ”

The two exchanged politeness, and Chen Yan asked straight to the point: "General Ji Ling, now that Xucheng has been captured by me, my army has all been stationed in the city, but now you suddenly came to Xucheng with a large army, I don't know why?" ”

Ji Ling is a martial artist, and his style of acting is also open-minded, he originally thought that Chen Yan must be a person with a deep chest, but he didn't expect Chen Yan to come up and ask so bluntly, this time it really suited his own taste.

Ji Ling smiled slightly, seemed to be a little embarrassed, and immediately said: "General Chen Yan, we are an alliance at this time, it stands to reason that I should help you in this attack on Xucheng...... Speaking of this, Ji Ling changed his words and continued: "It's a pity that there has been a long delay on the way, and I didn't catch up with this big battle......
