When the soldier heard that the matter was serious, he bent down and bowed, and said:

"Please rest assured, the general, the subordinate will definitely deliver the letter!"

The soldier left after speaking.

Seeing that Cao Ren really didn't read the letter he wrote, Gongsun Zan began to believe what Cao Ren said.

Gongsun Zan said:

"General Cao deserves to be the leader of an army!"

Cao Ren waved his hand, preventing Gongsun Zan from continuing, and he himself said:

"I, Cao Ren, said that as long as General Gongsun is willing to submit to my lord, I am willing to treat General Gongsun as a brother. I will do what I say, and I will never break my promise. Even the lord I said will treat General Gongsun as a brother!"

After hearing Cao Ren's words, Gongsun Zan felt that he was judging a gentleman's belly with the heart of a villain, and then said:

"Okay! I, Gongsun Zan, have written down the general's words. From now on, the generals will also be my brothers!"

After Gongsun Zan finished speaking, Cao Ren said to Gongsun Zan:

"General Gongsun, can you drink and eat meat with peace of mind now?"

Gongsun Zan laughed loudly, and said boldly:

"Okay! Let's have a good drink today!"

Cao Ren hurriedly asked the soldier just now to continue bringing in the wine and meat. After a while, the soldiers brought in the wine and meat and distributed them one by one on the table in front of several people.

Cao Ren picked up the wine jar, filled the glass in front of him, and said to everyone:

"Come on, let's celebrate after drinking this glass of wine. With General Gongsun joining us, our lord's career will go smoothly in the future!"

Xia Houyuan and Cao Hong raised their wine glasses one after another, and signaled to Gongsun Zan. After hearing Cao Ren's words, Gongsun Zan saw Xia Houyuan and Cao Hong toasting to him one after another, so he couldn't help raising the wine glasses in front of him. up!

Everyone in the big tent of the Chinese army drank happily, and the soldiers ordered by Cao Ren to deliver the letter had already arrived outside the city of Youzhou.

The soldier reined in his horse and stopped because he had seen that the soldiers on the city wall had fully drawn their bows and arrows and were about to shoot at him.

The soldier who was about to shout heard someone shouting on the city wall:

"Who is below? Say what you want quickly, or you will shoot an arrow!"

Seeing this situation, the soldiers hurriedly waved their hands and shouted to the soldiers on the city wall:

"I am a soldier under General Cao Ren. I am here to deliver the letter. Hurry up and invite General Yan Gang and General Zou Dan to come. General Gongsun has a letter that I want to hand over to the two generals!"

The general guarding the city today is Zou Dan, and Zou Dan hurriedly looked down when he heard Cao Jun's soldiers shouting below!

Zou Dan saw that there was only one person and one rider under the city, so he believed it a little bit, and said to the soldiers beside him:

"Go to the city and call General Yan Gang, saying that there is news about the lord!"

After receiving the order, the soldiers hurried down the city to look for Yan Gang.

After watching the soldiers leave, Zou Dan shouted to the soldiers below the city:

"Wait below for a moment, General Yan Gang will be here soon!"

The soldier didn't say anything, just nodded to show that he heard it.

In Youzhou City, Yan Gang's mansion, Yan Gang was not even in the mood to eat at this time, looking at the food in front of him, he was not interested at all.

When Yan Gang was worrying, he suddenly heard someone shouting and running towards him, so he stood up quickly and walked out.

As soon as Yan Gang walked out of the door, he saw a soldier rushing towards him, still shouting, something urgent!

Yan Gang hadn't waited for the soldiers to run in front of him, so he greeted him in two or three steps, and asked:

"What happened? Why are you in such a panic!"

The soldier also ran to Yan Gang at this time, panting heavily, and said:

"Back to General Yan, a Cao soldier came from outside the city and said he brought a letter from the lord. General Zou Dan sent me to look for General Yan, and told General Yan to hurry to the gate of the city!"

Yan Gang was worrying at home, when he suddenly heard the news about his lord, he couldn't help being overjoyed, and before the soldiers made any moves, he felt that Yan Gang rushed out of his side with a stride.

When the soldier reacted and turned around, he saw that Yan Gang had already run to the gate of the small courtyard.

The soldiers did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly ran after him.

Yan Gang rode on the horse tied outside the gate, turned over and jumped on it, riding the horse towards the city gate!

When Yan Gang ran to the city gate, he saw Zou Dan was already waiting for him in front of the city gate.

Yan Gang didn't get off his horse, and quickly asked Zou Dan:

"General Zou, where is the sender now? Is my lord safe and sound?"

Seeing that Yan Gang was so anxious, Zou Dan quickly replied:

"General Yan, don't be in a hurry. The person who delivered the letter is outside the city gate. He told us to go get the letter together, otherwise he won't hand it over."

Yan Gang heard that this was the case, and said anxiously to Zou Dan:

"General Zou, hurry up and get on your horse, you and I go out of the city first to retrieve the letter from the lord!"

Zou Dan also knew the seriousness of the matter, so he quickly got on his horse and shouted to the soldiers guarding the gate:

"Open the city gate!"

The gatekeepers ran past the four of them at once, and the four of them worked together to slowly open the city gate.

After the city gate was opened, Zou Dan and Yan Gang rushed out of the city without any guards.

The two came to the soldiers of Cao Jun, and Yan Gang said to the soldiers:

"I am Yan Gang, and he is Zou Dan. Where is my lord's letter?"

As soon as the soldier saw the gate of Youzhou city open, before he could react, he saw two horsemen rushing out of the city, and rushed towards him quickly.

The soldier who delivered the letter was taken aback by the two men rushing in like this. With their menacing appearance, they knew that they were here to pick up the letter, but they didn't know that they were here to kill themselves.

Hearing Yan Gang's words, the soldier hurriedly took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Yan Gang.

After Yan Gang received the letter, Cao Jun, a soldier, said to the two of them:

"Since the letter has been sent to the two generals, the younger one will take his leave first!"

Before the two could reply, the soldier turned his horse's head and galloped away.

Yan Gang and Zou Dan looked at the letter in their hands, they didn't care about the soldier who came to deliver the letter, and followed him back.

Yan Gang looked at the letter in his hand, then looked at Zou Dan at the side, and said:

"Let's go back to the city first, and see if it's the Lord's letter, or Cao Jun's estimated forged letter!"

Zou Dan also knows that this is not a place to read letters, after all the city gate is still open, if there is an ambush coming, it will be too late to close the city gate!

After listening to Yan Gang's words, Zou Dan nodded and said:

"Go! Hurry up and go back first!"

The two hurried back to the city again. The two who returned to the city got off their horses and came to a house. Yan Gang slowly unfolded the letter!
