Chapter 1169 Natural Enemy

Zhang Can slowly walked to Cao Cao, who was still vomiting blood and his eyes kept rolling. He squatted down and gently tore it from Cao Cao's left forehead, and a * teared off Cao Cao's face. After removing this disguised face, it turned out to be a thin and soft face. At this time, everyone found that his figure was one foot longer than Cao Cao.

"Gao Lan, I didn't expect you to finally study this*." Zhang Canyou said, and his eyes were blurred and complicated: "I remember that when my father killed pigs and cut their skins, I told you how wonderful it would be if I could make a human face with human skin..."

Gao Lan was on the verge of death at this time, and the blood kept choked on the trachea, making him speechless. Only looking at Zhang Can's familiar face, his eyes were peaceful, as if his thoughts had returned to the poor but plain past.

"I still can't figure out why you brought officers and soldiers to slaughter the countryside later. Is it because you were thin and feminine at that time, and your friends often teased you? Or did my parents have no regret of their daughter and intentionally or unintentionally treat you as a girl and stabbed the ambition in your bones?

Gao Lan still couldn't answer. In fact, even if he could speak, he felt that he could not explain to Zhang Can clearly: killing Liang was already what all warlords would do at that time, not to mention that the yellow scarf thief was really staying in their village all night. For this reason, it is enough for Yuan Shao to kill the whole village on the charge of 'protecting the rebels'.

In troubled times, there is no reason at all. Gao Lan became the commander of the operation, and it was also Yuan Shao's test of whether Gao Lan was loyal to him and whether he could become the leader of his red eagle cavalry. At that time, Gao Lan just followed his inner desire.

And for Zhang Can, who has no ambition in his heart and only wants to live a plain and peaceful life, he can't understand at all. Therefore, once the two people gradually drift away from their choices, and in exchange for such an endless ending, it can only be regarded as a sin in troubled times.

However, in any case, since that time, he found that his ambition was not so strong and ruthless. After that day, Gao Lan felt as if he had become a soulless walking corpse, living cold and mechanically. And this time, Cao Cao wanted Cao Hong to take on the task of pretending Cao Cao. However, I don't know why, Gao Lan took the initiative to take over this lifeless task.

Perhaps, deep down, Gao Lan is also looking forward to this moment. Especially at the hands of Zhang Can, which is a perfect relief for him. Therefore, he put his blood-filled hand on the hilt of the sword, and then smiled apologetically and satisfiedly at Zhang Can, deeply penetrating the iron sword through his body!

Zhang Can could stop it, but he didn't move. Looking at the last smile on Gao Lan's face, he suddenly felt that his heart was empty and confused, and there was a sense of weakness of the fateful boulder pulling away from his body. What he can do is to slowly brush Gaolan's face and close his eyes...

Such a farewell made the whole battlefield smell of sadness. Zhao Yun knew that he had blamed Zhang Can, but he also knew that it was not the time to disturb him. Finally, he hugged his fist slightly and said to Guo Jia who had just arrived: "Military, Yun has been waiting here for a long time."

"Why did you suddenly ambush here?" Guo Jia's feelings have always been very cold. For Zhang Can and Gao Lan's resentment, he seems to care more about this unexpected encounter. This made him, who had always been helpless, feel that some things were out of control.

"It was the Lord's special arrangement to march on the road, and specially invited the local people as guides to walk the remote roads, so that they can ambush here in advance." After Zhao Yun finished speaking, his expression was slightly cold, and he said, "My lord also said that he must stop you when he sees the military division."

"I know that..." Guo Jia sighed, and the expression on his face was very painful: "The Cao army incited the Xiongnu to attack Chang'an, and the lord must have been furious. No matter how I open my mouth, I must not give up firmly grasping Cao Gong's trump card. Because even if the Central Plains landslides and the blood flows into rivers, he will first take care of the rise and fall of the Ma family and the survival of the people.

"After I die, even if the flood is huge!" Youyou said this famous saying that Ma Chao once said, and Guo Jia seemed to have a sense of emotion: "When I heard him mention this without intention, I knew that such a majestic prince like him would definitely do such a thing."

"Teacher, what do you mean?" Cao Ang, who sat on the ground, listened to Guo Jia and Zhao Yun playing dumb puzzles, and couldn't help but walk out of the consternment and sadness of Gao Lan's death and asked.

"Nothing, it's just that your father wants to divide the Ma family from Chang'an into two. My lord is not a vegetarian. He is too long and unable to help Chang'an. He can only capture your father in exchange for Chang'an. Or, just kill your father, so that the Central Plains will fall into chaos and hurt both sides.

Cao Ang heard Guo Jia's explanation, but instead of being angry, he bowed deeply to Guo Jia: "Cao Ang thanked his father for his old kindness and came thousands of miles to save..."

"Don't provoke like this. I lied to General Xu Huang to intercept the main force of your Cao army and deliberately came here so hard. It's not for your Cao family, but to be worthy of the people in the world." Guo Jia waved his hand, and Yun Danfeng looked lightly at the calmness of Zhao Yun and Brother Chou and other Ma Chao's confidants. However, next, a cloud appeared on his warm jade-like face: "The lord is such an angry blow. Once he succeeds, the mountains and rivers will be shaken and Kyushu will be chaotic. The hard-won situation of competition will fall into the torn and chaotic wolf smoke in troubled times. And those who pay the price are not the Ma family and the Cao family, but tens of thousands of Qian Shouli Shu!"

This is a seemingly insoluble choice. No one will respect Guo Jia's benevolence or blame Ma Chao's coldness. In troubled times, everyone has been positioned as a role. As a strategist in the world, Guo Jia naturally has to focus on the world; and as the ruler of the Ma family, Ma Chao is not surprised to keep the foundation of the Ma family and the stability of the people under his rule. And Cao Cao is blameless for his ability to seek the world.

Therefore, in the face of this situation, Guo Jia, Zhao Yun and Chou Ge didn't even understand these cold and ancient and Zhang Can. They could only sigh leisurely and silently lamented for the suffering people of this era.

It is not someone else who can break this sadness, but Cao Ang: "Teacher, the danger of Chang'an has been solved. The daughters-in-law of the Ma family invited the old Dongliang to stay for serial design, and then Wei Yan led 30,000 elite horses from Hedong to travel thousands of miles to help Chang'an. As a result of the burial of 70,000 Xiongnu elites in Chang'an City, the whole Xiongnu tribe was panicked and thought that this was the day of the Xiongnu's extermination!"

When Guo Jia heard the news, his face was swept away, just like the originally cloudy jade that burst into a dazzling light. When Zhao Yun heard this, he didn't say a word. He turned his horse and wanted to run.

"General Zilong, where are you going?" Seeing this, Guo Jia asked with a smile, and regained the agility and wisdom he had mastered everything.

"I found the lord and stopped him from killing Cao Cao!"

"No, how can General Zilong not tell this news at the first moment when he thinks that Cao Gong is such a skillful person to defend his life?"

After listening to this, Zhao Yun smiled and admitted awkwardly that he had lost his temper. However, Cao Ang, who was beside him, raised his sincere admiration for the generals of the Ma family, who were worried about the world. However, there was still a puzzle in his heart: "Gentlemen, do you think that Ma Mengqi can find my father? You know, my road of suspicious soldiers is already unknown. Even I didn't know the direction of my father's escape..."

However, Cao Ang's sincere words were exchanged for the smile of Guo Jia, Zhao Yun and all the Ma Jiajun present. Cao Ang had a few hairs in his heart. Finally, Guo Jia waved her hand and said with a smile, "If it's someone else, naturally you can't find the trace of Cao Gong. However, for a bad stomach... For the wise lord, it happens to be Cao Gong's natural enemy.
