Cao Cao was 150,000 soldiers and horses at this moment, marching at full speed somewhere in Runan County. Cao Cao himself did not avoid hard work and rode his own stunning horse and rushed to the front of the army.

Halfway through the way, a man rode his horse to chase after him. Seeing this, Xiahou Yuan went up to him. The man said a few words in front of him, and then he saw Xiahou Yuan frowning.

"Miaocai, what's wrong?" Cao Cao asked.

Xiahou Yuan came to Cao Cao's side and replied, "I just received a report that Sun Jian sent about 90,000 troops from Chaisang and rushed to Changsha. His eldest son Sun Ce led 8,000 troops as the vanguard. Now he is probably not far from Changsha."

"Hmph, Sun Jian, take advantage of the situation to rob. Meng De, let me lead my army back to Jingzhou but deal with him."

Cao Hong said angrily.

Cao Cao smiled and waved his hand: "Why bother? The four counties in Jingnan are not under our army. Sun Jian wants to fight and let him fight. Why should we worry about this? Now Zhang Yong and Gao Shun have sent troops to stop our army. How can we divide our troops to Jingzhou again? This is a taboo in military strategists. I, Cao, will not attack this bad luck."

Cao Hong still looked unwilling: "Although the four counties in Jingnan are not under the jurisdiction of our army now, they are also in our army's pocket sooner or later. Should we just sit back and watch Sun Jian occupy the land of our confidant in Jingzhou?"

"Haha, General Cao Hong doesn't have to worry. How could the lord be unprepared for this matter?"

Guo Jia smiled and said, "Although most of the four counties are wine bags, they are not without heroes. Although Sun Jian and his son are brave, it is probably not easy to conquer them. Besides, the lord has other arrangements. I am afraid that after dealing with Liu Bei this time, both sides will be injured in Jingnan. I wait for our army to clean up the mess."

"Oh? It turns out that Meng De had expected this a long time ago, but I was worried too much, haha."

When Cao Cao saw Cao Hong laughing to the sky, he couldn't help but laugh: "This time our army wants to deal with the troops of Liu Bei, Liu He and Sun Jian at the same time. How can I not plan carefully? After this battle, the six counties of Qing, Xu, Yan, Yu, Jing, and Yang have been owned by our Cao family since ancient times. It's just that, haha..."

"Report... lord, Zhang Yong's army appeared sixty miles to the left of our army."

"Report... Gao Shun's army appeared about seventy miles ahead of our army."

Cao Cao's eyes stern: "Finally come. Gao Shun, Zhang Yong, I, Cao Cao, will fight here as soon as I avenge my previous shame and win the Central Plains."

Let’s talk about Sun Ce leading 8,000 people, who really traveled day and night, and rushed for three days and three nights in a row, and then arrived at Linxiang County, the location of Changsha County.

He looked up at the sun in the middle of the sky, and then ordered: "I will order the whole army to attack. Before sunset today, capture this and capture Han Xuan, the prefect of Changsha, alive."

"Major General, please wait." The deputy general said he would dissuade him, and Sun Ce stared at him with some displeasure.

"Soldiers are more important than speed, why should they be slow?"

The deputy general said, "Our army marched urgently for three days, and the soldiers were exhausted. This place is still more than twenty miles away from the city. It is better to camp on the spot and rest for a night. It is not too late to attack the city tomorrow. What's more, the last general has heard that there is a powerful general in Changsha, named Huang Zhong. Although he is over 40 years old, he has the courage of ten thousand men. Major generals should not underestimate the enemy."

"Nothing." Sun Ce scolded him sternly.

"The military strategy says: one fight, one fight will decline again, and three fighters will be exhausted. Now our army is in one fight to capture Changsha, otherwise the fighter will be over and it will be too late to regret it. What is the only veteran Huang Zhong? A county in Changsha has to rely on such an old soldier. It is obvious that no one is available. When I take his head and intimidate the enemy, I will make Han Xuan's old man open the city and surrender."

"But……"

"Okay, no need to say anything. Send the order and go immediately, and there must be no mistakes."

After Sun Ce issued a military order, he slapped his war horse and rushed forward quickly.

"Report..."

In the prefect's mansion in the city, a soldier hurriedly ran over.

"What a panic? Didn't you see me eating with all the generals?"

Han Xuan shouted with a tense face.

In the first seat of his lower head, there was a military general with a strong face, a tiger-backed and bear-bearded waist, extremely majestic, but his hair and beard began to turn white, obviously he was quite old.

The general said, "Lord, the last general sees that this person is a small guard in the city. He is so panicked. It must be because there is something outside the city. It is not too late to hear him finish his sentence."

Han Xuan saw him pleading, his face calmed down a little: "Well, if it weren't for the sake of General Huang, he would definitely be killed. Tell me, what's the matter?"

The soldier hurriedly said, "Outside the city... a team of soldiers appeared outside the city, and they were coming towards our city with great momentum."

"Bang..."

The wine bottle in Han Xuan's hand fell directly to the ground, and his face turned pale.

"Soldiers... soldiers? Who... who's soldiers? Could it be Cao Cao?"

"No, the villain looked at the flag, but the word "Sun".

"Sun? Could it be Sun Jian from Yuzhang County? Not long ago, the imperial court had just appointed him as the governor of Jingzhou and his eldest son Sun Ce as the prefect of Changsha. It was reasonable for him to attack."

Another general analyzed it, and everyone nodded and said yes.

"Sun Jian... This person has always been known as brave. What should I do..."

Han Xuan was so anxious that he scratched his ears and his head.

Huang Zhong stroked his half-black and half-white beard and asked the soldier: "How many soldiers do the other party have?"

"When I go back to the general, the villain looked roughly. There were about dozens of cavalry and seven or eight thousand infantrymen. The leader was a young general who looked only twenty years old, but he looked very heroic."

Huang Zhong seemed to have some insight and nodded slightly: "It seems that it must be Sun Ce. Humph, Huang often heard people say that Sun Jian is known as the tiger in Jiangdong, and his descendant Ce is even more brave and has a father. I don't believe that what can a child with a bad baby have?"

He then stood up and walked to the middle of the lobby: "Lord, don't worry. Not to mention the mere Sun Ce, even Sun Jian came here in person. He will definitely teach them that they will never come back with the phoenix-mouth knife and iron-fetal bow in his hand."

Han Xuan looked at Huang Zhong and heard that the other party had only seven or eight thousand troops, and he felt a little relieved.

"Yes, yes, yes, I have Han Sheng, what are you afraid of? I will immediately order troops to fight."

Sun Ce stopped his horse and shouted loudly, "Old Han Xuan, I heard it really well. I am Sun Ce from Jiangdong. I was granted the imperial court and was the prefect of Changsha. You, Han Xuan, are just incompetent people. I have been here for many years and have done nothing. Now I will take over the city. You can quickly present the prefect's seal and ribbon. You can spare your life, otherwise you will not be left on the day the city is destroyed."

Han Xuan climbed up to the city tower and looked at Sun Ce, wearing a lion helmet, wearing a bright silver chain mail, and a four-sided overlord gun in his hand. He was tall and mighty. He was really a young talent. He couldn't help but licked his fear in his heart and couldn't help but retreat.

However, he had just taken a step back and a powerful hand held him.

"Lord, Sun Ce is so arrogant and ignorant. He will ask for his order to fight so that he can know what the sky is high and the earth is thick."

Han Xuan nodded involuntarily when he listened to the thick voice and looked at the face that was a little old, which made him feel extremely at ease.

"Okay, I'll bother the old general to fight. If I can retreat to the enemy, I will be rewarded with great rewards."

Huang Zhong held his fists and took the order, then lifted the sword and ran down the city tower.

Sun Ce saw Han Xuan surrounded by many generals. Although he didn't know him, he immediately guessed his identity and immediately pointed at him with a bully gun.

"Han Xuan, why don't you open the city and surrender quickly? Could it be that you want to seek death?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a "creak", the city gate slowly opened, and a man rode out.

"Don't be rampant, can you recognize Huang Zhong in Nanyang?"

The deputy general around Sun Ce reminded: "Major General, this person is Huang Zhong. It is rumored that he is extremely brave and rarely encounters an opponent in Jingxiang."

"Just him?" Sun Ce glanced at Huang Zhong disdainfully and sneered: "Depending on his age, he is not fifty years old, I am afraid it's almost the same. Unfortunately, my Sun Ce went to Jingzhou for the first battle and wanted to kill this old soldier."

After saying that, he waved the overlord gun and greeted Huang Zhong.

"Old man, take me a shot."
