As soon as it was dawn the next day, Cao Yun got up and got dressed, and he was going to return to Qingzhou today, and he didn't know what the situation in Qingzhou was now, and what actions Sun Li of Wuzhou had done.

After getting dressed and walking out of the room, Zhang Zixi and Pang Shiyuan were already waiting in the inn hall, Lai Ying'er was already in the hall, and Gan Ning and other sergeants were waiting outside the inn in full gear.

"Brother Zhang, if you and Miss Ying'er are in the carriage together, you can take care of each other, after all, the road is extremely bumpy. Cao Yun walked up to Zhang Zixi and said.

"How can this work, I always show people in men's clothes, many sergeants think I am a man, I want to be in a carriage with Sister Ying'er, what will those sergeants think, this has a bad impact. Zhang Zixi hurriedly refused.

"What's this, you won't show off in men's clothes in the future, right?" Cao Yun said with some amusement.

Zhang Zixi nodded when he heard this, "I should be wearing men's clothes, and many people will think that I am a man, so don't get into the carriage." ”

Cao Yun was a little helpless when he heard this, so he had to say to Ying'er: "Miss Ying'er, you are the only one in the carriage, you have to pay attention to the bumps along the way." ”

"Hmm. Lai Ying'er just lowered her head and hummed softly, still very shy, not at all like a woman who has been in ** for many years, and still maintains that woman's innocence.

Cao Yun had already instructed Gan Ning to prepare a carriage for Ying'er to ride, and the horses for several people to ride were also ready, just wait to say goodbye to Guo Xiao and then go on the road. It didn't take long for Guo Xiao and Xu Zhu to come to the inn hall.

"Brother Cao, Brother Pang, Brother Zhang, now I don't know when I will see you again, Brother Cao is very gracious, and I will never forget it. Guo Xiao walked up to Cao Yun and the others and said, saying that he would bow his hand to Cao Yun.

"What kind of great grace is unforgettable, Brother Guo will fall into the inferior class like this. Farewell today, but I don't know if there will be a day to see Brother Guo again. Cao Yun said with emotion.

"Although the days with Brother Cao are short, they are unforgettable, and I really hope that I can have such a time with Brother Cao in the future. Guo Xiao said with some sadness.

"Brother Guo wants to get along with Brother Cao, isn't it simple, just come to my Qingzhou, and with Brother Guo's talent, he will be reused by the state pastor. Pang Shiyuan said.

Guo Xiao smiled when he heard this, "Brother Pang really laughed." ”

At this time, Cao Yun's mind was spinning with thoughts, if this Guo Xiao could leave Cao De and go to my Qingzhou account, it would be a really good thing, but it was a pity that he had been reused under Cao De.

Cao Yun and Guo said goodbye to each other, got on their horses and whipped lightly, and went outside Luoyang City. In the city, it was still walking slowly, and as soon as it got out of Luoyang City, it accelerated a lot, but it was not too fast, after all, Ying'er was in a carriage.

After about half a day, Gan Ning led twenty sergeants to the front of a mountain, and Le Ma stopped to examine the movement around the mountain, after all, there have been bandits recently, and there are even Yellow Turban troops running around, so be careful.

After Gan Ning examined it, he didn't find anything unusual, Cao Yun and more than 70 people also came closer, and then the horse continued to move forward, just turned a hill, but stopped at once.

Cao Yun, who was behind, saw that Gan Ning and the others, who had just turned the mountain, seemed to stop their horses, their hearts tightened, and they signaled the team to stop, but he went up on horseback.

As soon as Cao Yun stepped forward, Na Gan Ning shouted in an echo, "My lord, there are bandits to retreat quickly." ”

Cao Yun turned around when he heard this, "Quickly retreat." ”

Everyone whipped and hurried, the carriage was also gurgling and hurrying, and Gan Ning and others behind also retreated back in a hurry, but a group of bandits chased behind.

After running for a distance, Cao Yun turned around and visually inspected the bandits behind him, there were about a thousand people. Cao Yun secretly said in his heart that if he continued like this, he would definitely be caught up by the bandits, after all, there was a carriage that dragged him down, and the speed couldn't be fast. Looking back again, he found that the bandit who rushed to the front was wearing armor, perhaps the bandit leader. Thinking of this, Cao Yun's heart was ruthless, and he took out the Yintian Bow from the storage bag and took out three more arrows.

"Meet the enemy. Cao Yun roared and slapped his horse, jumped into the air and turned around, drew his bow and arrows, and opened his bow with a full string. Suddenly, the three arrows shot straight at the first of the three thieves. After shooting three arrows, he landed, took three more arrows, and shot again. The bandit leader was not in a hurry to dodge, and was shot by an arrow. Cao Yun hurriedly put the Yintian Bow back in the storage bag, and with a sonorous sound, he pulled out the Sun and Moon Sword at his waist and rushed up, and Gan Ning and the others also turned around and rushed to kill.

As soon as the bandit leader was killed by Cao Yun with an arrow, the rest of the bandits were chaotic, Cao Yun rushed into the bandits and killed for a while, cutting many bandits, Gan Ning and other sergeants also rode horses to kill, and the bandits were killed and injured countless times.

Puff, puff, Cao Yun raised his sword and slashed many bandits, the thieves saw that he could take off in the air, knew that Lu Dao was a powerful person, and saw that Gan Ning and others were extremely brave, and they were frightened, and they all turned around and ran. When Cao Yun was about to shout to Gan Ning and others to stop the pursuit, many of the bandits surrendered on their knees, and only a small number of bandits continued to escape.

About two hundred bandits knelt down and surrendered, Cao Yun frowned slightly when he saw this, not knowing what to do with these bandits, at this time Pang Shiyuan came over.

"Brother Cao, most of these bandits are young and strong, it is better to take them in, and after arriving in Qingzhou, they will be used as sergeants, and now the power of young and strong people in troubled times should be cherished. Pang Shiyuan said to Cao Yun after dismounting.

Cao Yun put the sword in his hand back on his waist, "I want to do this too, but we only have a hundred sergeants, how can we control so many bandits." ”

"Brother Cao, don't worry, these bandits are probably homeless, if Brother Cao can take them in, they will only be grateful, and they will not run away. Pang Shiyuan said, tightening the horse's reins as he spoke, and the horse kicked his legs.

"Okay, I'll let Gan Ning take them in, but these bandits have to be at the front of the line, and their weapons have to be collected first. Cao Yun said and beckoned to Gan Ning and motioned for him to come over.

"Huh~" Gan Ning came over at once, stopped the horse and turned over and dismounted.

"Your Excellency. Gan Ning waved his hand at Cao Yun and bowed.

"Go and collect all the bandits, first put away their weapons, and if there are any who don't want to be co-opted, let them go. Cao Yun said to Gan Ning.

"It's my lord. After Gan Ning finished speaking, he turned over and over, and collected all those bandits, none of the bandits left, these bandits heard that they were going to be incorporated into the army, it was the Qingzhou army, they were all very happy, and they could enter the army and have a full meal.

Seeing the excited appearance of these bandits, Cao Yun felt a little relieved, after all, there was still time to return to Qingzhou, and he was afraid that something would happen to these bandits.

After Gan Ning finished collecting the bandits, he took the bandits to open the way in front. Cao Yun and others walked behind.

"Brother Cao, don't do anything after meeting Qingzhou, let the state pastor give you a general to do, now in troubled times, Brother Cao should build a career on the battlefield. Zhang Zixi rode to Cao Yun's side and said, Cao Yun had returned to the horse at this time.

Cao Yun smiled when he heard this, "I see that Brother Zhang also wants to go to the battlefield, and when I return to Qingzhou, I will be a general, how about you be my advisor?"
