Chapter 372 Recognizing the thief as his father

Zhang Chen hurriedly stopped him and advised: "Our family members are all in the city. Brother, please don't be impulsive. I have a plan to kill Gan Ning."

Zhang Quan barely held back his anger and asked, "What's your plan?"

Zhang Chen said: "The younger brother went to fight first and entangled Gan Ning, but the elder brother came out from the east gate and attacked Gan Ning from behind. He attacked from both sides. I don't think he could escape with his wings."

Zhang Quan's eyes lit up when he heard this, he nodded and said with a smile: "This is a great plan. Gan Ning is also a general in Jingzhou. He can use his body to exchange for his father. Not only can he avenge his revenge, but he can also bury his father."

The two discussed it, and Zhang Chen went out to fight first, while Zhang Quan waited at the east gate. When the drum sounded, he rushed out from the east gate and surrounded the enemy's rear.

Gan Ning was yelling and cursing outside the city. Seeing that Zhang Quan refused to leave the city, he was about to think of another strategy. Suddenly the city gate opened and a general took the initiative to send troops. He couldn't help but feel secretly happy and stepped back slightly.

Zhang Chen rode his horse out of the city, raised his gun and shouted: "Thieves Gan Ning, but you used a hidden weapon to kill my uncle?"

Gan Ning heard that the person who came was not Zhang Quan, and sneered: "Zhang Xiu is known as the spear king of the North, but his reputation is in vain. It's just that his skills are not as good as others!"

Zhang Chen was furious and urged his horses to fight. Seeing this, the defenders on the city immediately beat drums to cheer up, and the loud sound of drums resounded throughout the city.

Gan Ning caught Zhang Chen and saw that this man's martial arts were ordinary. He raised his head and saw no other general in the city, so he asked, "Where is Zhang Quan's son?"

Zhang Chen attacked with all his strength, and when he saw the dust flying to the east, he laughed and said: "Gan Ning is a thief, Zhang Quan is behind you, you have fallen into my trap!"

Gan Ning originally wanted to kill Zhang Chen with one blow and lure Zhang Quan out of the city, but he didn't expect that the other party would use this trick, which would play into his own ambitions.

"Despicable dog thief, how dare you sneak attack!" Gan Ning cursed, drove Zhang Chen away with a knife, then turned his horse and drove away.

Zhang Quanzheng surrounded him from the east gate and shouted: "Gan Ning, don't leave!"

Gan Ning did not dare to fight Zhang Quan and led his troops to escape into the mountains. Zhang Quan led his troops in hot pursuit.

Zhang Chen was still hesitant, but when he saw that Zhang Quan had already chased him out, he was worried that he might have made a mistake. He also saw that the soldiers in Jingzhou were in chaos, so he called the Luyang defenders out of the city to pursue him.

Zhang Quan took advantage of the victory to pursue the defeated army, looking for the red robe, and vowed to avenge Zhang Xiu. Behind him were the old troops of Xiliang, rushing forward.

At this time, it was getting dark. When Zhang Chen saw the front troops chasing into the mountains, he couldn't help but become nervous. He hurriedly rushed forward to persuade them to go back. After passing through the woods, he heard the sound of a drum.

"Be careful of ambush!" Zhang Chen hurriedly reined in his horse and shouted, but it was too late.

Unexpectedly, the ambush troops were hiding at the foot of the mountain. Before he finished speaking, arrows were fired from the forest, and the ambush troops rushed out from the left and right slopes.

Cao Jun was chasing forward, but his wings were shot down by random arrows, and the people behind him were in chaos. When Zhang Chen turned around, Su Fei had already led his troops out, blocking the way.

Zhang Chen was so anxious that he shouted: "Follow me to break through and hold the mountain pass!"

He urged his horse to attack Su Fei. At this time, he had to defend the mountain pass to have a chance of survival. Unexpectedly, the opponent was not an ordinary general. Instead, he was killed in a hurry.

Zhang Chen was shocked and turned pale. He knew he was no match for this man and could not force a conflict. He was chased by the pursuers. In panic, Su Fei raised a knife and killed him in front of his horse.

Cao's army panicked for no reason and fled into the forest one after another. They were killed numerous times by random arrows from the Jingzhou army.

Zhang Quan was chasing Gan Ning in front, when he suddenly heard the sound of drums behind him and the cry of killing. When he looked back, he saw the ambush soldiers were killing the scattered pursuers and cut off their retreat. Knowing that he had fallen into the trap, he hurriedly reined in his horse and turned back.

"You're still a bit immature when you try to trick me!"

Gan Ning burst into laughter and turned around to pursue Cao Jun. Although these cavalry were powerful, most of them were old and could not compare with the strong Jinfan army. In the blink of an eye, not many of them were left.

Zhang Quan fled back from the rebel army under the protection of his own soldiers. Seeing Zhang Chen being killed and his retreat blocked, he became so angry that he reined up his horse and turned around and shouted: "Gan Ning, I will fight with you!"

"I've seen a lot of useless kids like you!" Gan Ning laughed loudly and raised his knife to fight Zhang Quan.

Zhang Quan was determined to fight to the death, full of anger, and looked very aggressive, but he was far from a match for Gan Ning. He stabbed Gan Ning more than ten times in a row, but was unable to do anything to the opponent. He was furious.

"If you don't have the strength, don't talk big words from now on!" Gan Ning suddenly shouted loudly and slashed with his sword, and Zhang Quan's gun flew out.

While he was stunned, Gan Ning had already patted his horse and came closer. He grabbed the belt of his robe and lifted him off the horse's back, throwing him to the ground: "Tie him up!"

The surrounding soldiers swarmed up and tied up Zhang Quan. They could do nothing but scream and struggle.

Gan Ning ordered Su Fei to withdraw his troops, glanced at the panicked Cao army, and shouted: "I will give you one more chance, return to the city immediately - if I catch up, you will all die!"

Cao's army was in a commotion, and the bold ones ran away. Immediately everyone ran down the mountain like a swarm and fled in embarrassment to Luyang.

Gan Ning then led his troops to catch up and chased Cao's army straight to Luyang. The defenders were unattended on the city. They were hesitating whether to close the city gate when Jingzhou soldiers had already entered the city.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Cao Jun abandoned his weapons and armor and fled through the remaining gates. By nightfall, Gan Ning had led his troops to occupy Luyang.

Zhang Quan was taken to the government office and cursed Gan Ning in the audience. He looked ferocious and begged for death.

Gan Ning sneered and said: "A useless disciple like you can only be incompetent and furious! Zhang Xiu was humiliated by the thief Cao back then, but he was bewitched by the old thief Jia Xu. He is willing to be a hawk and a dog, and is laughed at by the world. What face do you have in me?

Call yourself a hero in front of me?"

"You..." Zhang Quan's expression darkened, and his teeth creaked.

Zhang Xiu's surrender to Cao Cao was indeed a great disgrace to the Zhang family, but no one dared to mention Zhang Xiu's marriage to the Cao family. At this time, Gan Ning ruthlessly exposed it, and he wanted to find a crack in the ground to sneak in.

Gan Ning sighed: "Fortunately, my master Liu Qi is kind and does not want to cause more killings. General Guan also missed his old friendship with Xuchang and asked me to spare your life and leave heirs for the Zhang family. Otherwise, how could you be allowed to make noise here?"

?”

Zhang Quan's face was ugly, but he still said firmly: "If you want to kill me, then kill him. You and I have a grudge against you for killing your father, so there is no need to pretend to be benevolent or righteous."

Gan Ning sneered and said: "The two armies are fighting each other, and each has his own master. Once you come to serve as a soldier, you must be prepared to die on the battlefield at any time. The Xiliang army slaughtered the Central Plains and killed the people. Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu had so many stains on their hands."

Human blood, who do they seek revenge on?"

Zhang Quan was stunned, and Gan Ning sighed: "How can grievances in the world be ranked with national affairs? You and Na Ling Cao from Jiangdong have the same virtues, no matter how important they are. It's a pity that your ability is far inferior to him."

Zhang Quan said angrily: "What on earth do you have to say?"

Gan Ning smiled and said: "It's not that I have anything to say, but that the military advisor has something to tell me. As long as this is done, your family will be safe."

Zhang Quan snorted coldly: "It is absolutely impossible for me to betray the enemy and surrender."

"Tsk tsk -" Gan Ning smacked his lips, shook his head and sighed, "You keep saying you want revenge. Isn't your biggest enemy Cao Cao? Now that you consider a thief as your father, you are still so righteous. It is really stupid. But you think too highly of yourself. We in Jingzhou are full of talents.

, what’s the use of an incompetent person like you?”

Zhang Quan looked ugly and was so embarrassed by Gan Ning's ridicule that he simply gritted his teeth and stopped talking.
