There were still two quarters of an hour before Haishi, and Cao Ang hurriedly knocked on the door of Zhang Chao's prefecture.

The ancients went to bed early. Although it was only after eight o'clock, Zhang Chao had already fallen asleep. Hearing that something big had happened in the city, Zhang Chao was woken up and didn't even have time to get dressed, so he hurried out wearing a short shirt.

"Junhou, what happened?"

Cao Ang said solemnly: "There is trouble in the city. Someone is having an affair with the bandits outside the city and wants to open the city gate and lure the bandits into the city!"

Cao Ang's voice was not loud, but Zhang Chao was astonished when he heard it.

"This, this is true!"

Zhang Chao's voice was trembling.

Cao Ang said calmly: "The thieves at the west gate were discovered early and have been captured by our army. However, the thieves at the south gate were numerous and suddenly attacked. Our army was caught off guard and was fighting with the thieves. I have sent reinforcements.

Went to support."

At this time, Zhang Chao, although he was not alone, was still panicked. He could not help but pull Cao Ang, begging Cao Ang to stop the bandits and turn the tide.

Cao Ang really became Zhang Chao's life-saving straw.

With Cao Ang around, Zhang Chao had a backbone, and he managed to calm down, only to realize that he still didn't know who initiated the rebellion, so he asked.

Cao Ang immediately took out the note Liu Wei received.

Zhang Chao looked at the content on the note and couldn't believe it. He hesitated for a while and then asked: "Junhou, is this a mistake?"

Cao Ang sighed softly, his face still very serious.

"I hope so too, but everyone gets the stolen goods. Liu Wei of the Liu family has already confessed. Moreover, the bandits who attacked the south were defeated and fled to the Liu family. After our army chased them, they joined the Liu family.

, hold on to the danger and confront our army."

Compared to Liu Yi, Zhang Chao definitely trusted Cao Ang more.

So Zhang Chao basically believed the matter, looked at Cao Ang, and asked: "How are you going to deal with this matter?"

Zhang Chao knew very well that the person who could really make the decision in the city at this time was not himself but Cao Ang.

"I am the commander-in-chief. I am responsible for fighting wars and dealing with rebellion. It is your prefect's responsibility."

After Cao Ang finished speaking, he stood up and left.

Zhang Chao hurriedly asked: "Where are you going?"

"Broken thief!"

Zhang Chao looked at Cao Ang's back in a daze, but Cao Ang's calm and determined look made Zhang Chao truly feel what it means to be a famous general.

At this time, Zhang Chao was no longer tired, he was going to deal with the Liu family's trouble.

In fact, after Zhang Chao calmed down, he already suspected that something was wrong, and the Liu family should not have any reason to rebel. But now, Zhang Chao no longer thinks about it.

Just because Cao Ang said so, the Liu family has to be treasonous.

Cao Ang left from the Prefect's Mansion, looked back at the Prefect's Mansion, his eyes were deep, he took a long time to look away, and turned around to leave.

Regarding Zhang Chao's reaction, Cao Ang had made a lot of predictions before, including that Zhang Chao guessed the whole story and fell out with him, although this possibility was not very high.

But for Cao Ang, he didn't mind letting Zhang Chao die for his country.

Of course, Zhang Chao's death will inevitably have other consequences, but Cao Ang's determination to get rid of the Liu family remains unchanged and no one can stop him.

Fortunately, Zhang Chao made the right choice.

Now that the matter of crucifixion of the Liu family has been handed over to Zhang Chao, it will be easier for Cao Ang to escape from the matter. In the future, even if someone really doubts this matter, they will only doubt Zhang Chao, not Cao Ang.

Cao Ang took his personal guards to the west gate. At this time, the war in the west gate was almost over.

This time Cao Ang still chose to set up an ambush at the west gate and deployed heavy troops near the west gate. Especially the three hundred dead soldiers led by Ma Tong were consumables carefully selected by Cao Ang. The strongest combat power of these families were all dead, and each family

It has basically become a tiger without teeth and claws, and the threat is greatly reduced.

As Cao Ang expected, Chen Bao's troops rushed into the city mindlessly and plunged into Cao Ang's ambush. Han Dang was caught off guard. Afterwards, Ma Tong led three hundred private soldiers to rush out and attack the opponent with all their strength.

The military formation, after suffering huge casualties, finally overran the rebel camp.

At this time, Dingxu and Pang De also led the troops drawn from Hailing to raid the back of Chen Bao's rebel army and completely defeated the rebel line.

The rebels, who were frightened to begin with, had completely lost their energy at this time. Facing the two-sided attack from Dingxu and Ma Tong, they had no choice but to flee in all directions.

Chen Bao was no longer the arrogant and proud bandit leader before. He was wrapped in the crowd and fled for his life following the broken troops.

But Dingxu had dozens of cavalry under his command. These fast men and horses constantly charged and drove away the areas where there were many rebels. As a result, countless rebels died while fleeing.

What's more, they desperately rushed to the south river and jumped into the river like crazy to avoid the pursuit of the officers and soldiers.

The battle continued until the morning of the next day. Outside Guangling City, there was a chaotic situation, with corpses, prisoners, and surrendered troops everywhere.

The standing and fallen heads, one after another, tell the story of the victory of this war.

Around Chen time, the little fat man who had been chasing the bandits all night came with his troops. At this time, a man carrying a package came forward and presented it to him. Cao Ang asked someone to open it, and it was Chen Bao.

Chen Bao's eyes were wide open, his face full of fear and panic, as if he couldn't believe the falling guillotine.

Cao Ang didn't care about Chen Bao at all and said loudly: "What's your name?"

"The villain Pang De was born in Zangdao (also known as Jiudao and Goudao, which governs the southeast of Longxi, Gansu Province today) in Hanyang!"

Cao Ang was stunned.

This name was very familiar to him, but why did the other person appear here?

At this time, Li Shen behind him said: "This son is the son of Pang Yong, my great meritorious officer. He has always been brave and can be used as a soldier."

After hearing this, Cao Ang looked back at Li Shen with a silent expression.

Cao Ang's expression was not kind, which made Li Shen's heart tremble. He didn't know how to offend Cao Ang.

It took a long time for Cao Ang to speak: "Brother Li, I am very aware of your talent and ambition to rise. I don't care. After all, there are too many ambitious people. But there is no shortage of smart people in the world, but there is a shortage of people who can understand themselves.

, No one is a fool, let alone regard others as fools, otherwise the disaster of death may not be away from you.

This is all my good words, I will only say them once. If things go wrong in the future, please don’t blame Cao Ang, senior brother."

Cao Ang didn't care what Li Shen did. For example, in the case of Liu Yi, he must have acted privately. But Cao Ang could tolerate it or pretend not to know.

But Cao Ang had a bottom line for Li Shen, that is, Li Shen could not interfere with military power, otherwise Cao Ang would not be able to tolerate him.

Pang De was Li Shen's test, and he was also Li Shen's tentacle to reach out into the army.

What Cao Ang has to do is to cut off this tentacle.
