"Yes!" Xun Chen could only obey Cao Cao's orders.

Seeing Cao Cao's decisive move, Xu Shu cursed inwardly. Cao Cao was still so cautious and didn't give him any chance.

"The entire army is moving forward!" Xu Shu did not hesitate and led his troops to charge.

The two sides collided and a bloody fight broke out. Although Cao Cao's soldiers were well-trained.

However, the soldiers under Cao Ang were more skilled in martial arts, so Cao's army was defeated one after another.

"Kill!" Cao Cao personally picked up his sword and killed two soldiers who blocked his way, then led the way to escape towards the west gate.

Cao Ang followed closely behind with his cavalry. Cao Ang did not believe that Cao Cao could still turn the tide.

"My lord, Cao Cao has escaped. What should we do now?" asked Chen Gong.

"Don't worry about him, just keep chasing him." Cao Ang was determined to kill Cao Cao tonight.

"Yes!" Chen Gong could only obey Cao Ang's orders.

Cao Ang led his troops and rushed all the way, and soon arrived at Cao Cao's west gate.

Cao Cao was standing on the gate tower observing the situation. Cao Ang's troops were getting closer and closer.

Cao Cao had to admire Cao Ang's bravery for daring to advance so boldly.

"My lord, Cao Ang is here. I'm willing to fight!" Zhang Ji shouted.

“No need!” Cao Cao stopped Zhang Ji and shouted, “Liu Xuande, I know what you want to do.

Unfortunately, someone had already expected you to do this. So, you are doomed to be happy in vain.

Pass the order to close the city gates."

Upon receiving the order, the Cao army soldiers immediately closed the city gates and blocked Cao Ang outside.

"Haha, Cao Mengde, you are quite smart." Cao Ang said sarcastically.

"Hmph! Your schemes and tricks are of no use to me." Cao Cao said disdainfully.

"Really?" Cao Ang smiled faintly and said, "Don't forget that I hold the lives of your sons Cao Ang and Cao Ren in my hands. If you don't surrender, I will kill them."

"Despicable and shameless!" Cao Cao said gritting his teeth.

"Haha!" Cao Ang said proudly, "Same here."

"Cao Ang, you won't succeed." Cao Cao said calmly.

"You guessed wrong. I am here tonight to destroy you, Cao Cao. If you don't surrender, do you want me to kill both brothers?" Cao Ang provoked Cao Cao again.

"Come on, kill them!" Cao Cao was angry. He would rather fight with Cao Ang than surrender to Cao Ang.

"Haha, in that case, then don't blame me. Archers, aim at the city wall and shoot." Cao Ang gave the order to shoot.

Suddenly, a rain of arrows poured down on the tower. Cao Cao's guards fought back, but many of them were still shot dead.

"Retreat!" Seeing the bad situation, Cao Cao quickly gave the order.

"Where are you going!" Cao Ang shouted and rushed forward with his cavalry.

Cao Cao could only flee to the south gate with his remaining troops.

"Stop them!" Cao Ang would certainly not let Cao Cao go, and immediately dispatched troops to intercept them.

Xu Shu led the infantry and cavalry to continue the pursuit.

Half an hour later, Cao Ang finally caught up with Cao Cao and surrounded him.

"My lord, I am late in coming to your rescue." Xu Shu knelt down with his men.

"Get up! You have done a great job. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to defeat Cao Cao." Cao Ang looked at his subordinates with satisfaction.

Xu Shu and others all smiled, and Cao Ang praised them, proving that Cao Ang had recognized their contributions.

"Cao Cao, surrender!" Cao Ang drew his sword and pointed at Cao Cao.

"Don't even think about it!" Cao Cao stared at Cao Ang angrily and said loudly.

Cao Ang didn't expect Cao Cao to be so tough. He was still stubborn even at this point.

Cao Ang felt that he could not give Cao Cao any chance to breathe, and he had to eliminate Cao Cao as soon as possible, otherwise he would be in danger. Cao Ang shouted, "Kill!"

Cao Ang led his army to attack Cao Cao, but Cao Cao's army was relatively weak and could not resist Cao Ang at all.

About a quarter of an hour later, Cao Cao escaped with 10,000 men.

Cao Ang was unwilling to let Cao Cao get away like this, so he ordered his army to pursue him.

During the pursuit, many soldiers were hit by stray arrows or fell off the cliff.

However, these soldiers pursued with all their heart. Cao Cao was already a lost dog.

If Cao Cao could be captured, Cao Ang would definitely receive a huge reward, so these soldiers worked very hard.

They chased for about fifty miles before stopping.

"Report! My lord, Cao Cao has fled to the northwest." The scout came back to report.

Cao Ang frowned and said, "This Cao Cao is too cunning. He actually fled to the northwest."

"My lord, I have a plan." Xu Shu suddenly said.

Cao Ang said happily: "Yuan Tu, tell me quickly."

“Just because Cao Cao is fleeing to the northwest doesn’t mean he will flee to Donghai County.

I think he wants to go to Jingzhou to avoid disaster. I think the lord should send out elite troops to pursue Cao Cao.

The troops left behind in Donglai are enough to defend Yanzhou. My Lord, what do you think?" Xu Shu analyzed.

"I agree with Yuan Tu's idea." Cao Ang clapped his hands in approval.

Xu Shu’s plan was correct. As long as Cao Ang chased Cao Cao from behind, Yanzhou would be safe and Cao Cao would not attack Yanzhou easily.

"My dear ministers, Lü Bu, Zhang Liao, Huang Zhong, please listen to my orders.

Lead 3,000 men and horses to pursue the enemy today and make sure to capture Cao thief." Cao Ang gave the order.

"We obey your orders!" Generals including Lu Bu, Huang Zhong, Zhang Liao and others accepted the order.

"Wenyuan, lead the army to guard Donglai City and don't let Cao Cao escape." Cao Ang instructed Zhao Yun.

"Yes!" Zhao Yun also knew the seriousness of the matter.

After watching Lü Bu and the others leave, Cao Ang said to Xu Shu, "Yuan Tu, you and Dian Wei lead the remaining troops back to Changsha.

Guard Donglai City. In addition, I need you to help Liu Bei seize Yuzhou, do you agree?"

"I will do my best to complete the task assigned by my lord." Xu Shu said respectfully.

"Okay, then you go first." Cao Ang waved his hand.

Xu Shu bowed and said yes, then turned and left.

Cao Ang looked towards the direction of Jiangxia with burning eyes and muttered to himself.

"Cao Cao, you can't run away. This time I, Cao Ang, will definitely destroy you!"

Xu Shu led the cavalry and rushed all the way, and finally rushed back to Donglai, the capital of Donglai County.

As soon as Xu Shu stepped into the government office in Donglai, he felt a strong smell of blood permeating the entire government office.

"What's going on?" Xu Shu's heart tightened and he quickly asked the personal soldier beside him.

"Your Excellency, Cao's army just attacked the government office, causing heavy casualties!" the personal soldier replied hurriedly.

"Asshole, how could this happen?" Xu Shu cursed.

"Sir, we are ordered to protect you, but those Cao troops are too powerful." The personal soldier said bitterly.

"Waste! A bunch of idiots!" Xu Shu cursed.

"Sir, let's quickly notify Lord Liu Bei." suggested a personal soldier.

"Yes, quickly notify Lord Liu Bei." Xu Shu nodded immediately.

Xu Shu immediately found Liu Bei and told him what happened. (End of this chapter)
