Mi Fang's martial arts were comparable to Cao Bao. He was originally not Ji Ling's opponent, but he saw that there was only one person on the other side, and there were thousands of soldiers behind him. Even if one person cut the other side with a knife, it would be enough to cut the other side into meat sauce. With the courage of the soldiers behind him, Mi Fang rushed forward with his weapons.

Ji Ling saw that a army of thousands of people suddenly appeared in front of him and saved Cao Bao who was chased by him. He knew that he would not be able to do anything to Cao Bao if he chased him again, so he stopped his mount and stood there waiting for Mi Fang to rush over.

Seeing that Ji Ling had stopped chasing, Mi Fang stopped in the distance, and quickly tied the reins to slow down his mount. When he arrived at a place five or six steps away from Ji Ling, he stopped, pointed at Ji Ling with his hand, and asked loudly: "Who is coming, why did he offend me in Xuzhou?"

Seeing that a young general came, he should be better than Cao Bao, so he bowed to the other party with his fists and said, "This young general is invited. I am the general Ji Ling, a general under the command of the Mu Yuan Highway in Yangzhou, went to Licheng to encircle and suppress a rebel army."

Hearing Ji Ling say this, Mi Fang couldn't help but turn his head and look at Cao Bao, who was in the queue, who looked embarrassed, and asked in confusion: "General Ji Ling, since you are heading to Licheng, why do you want to fight with General Cao Bao?"

Ji Ling glanced at Cao Bao, who was in the military formation in the distance, and said disdainfully: "I just told General Cao that we were going to Licheng, hoping that he could make a way for us. Unexpectedly, he slashed without saying a word, and this general had to defend himself due to helplessness."

After listening to Ji Ling's story, Mi Fang couldn't help but turn his head and look at Cao Bao behind him. With his understanding of Cao Bao, Cao Bao could definitely do this. Just when he was hesitating about what to do next, Cao Bao, who had recovered, saw that Ji Ling was only alone, and suddenly became arrogant again. He shouted loudly at Mi Fang: "Zi Fang, don't be polite to him. He has only one person, and we have thousands of people. Even if we step on him, he can trample him to death."

When Mi Fang heard Cao Bao say this, she secretly called it a bad thing, and it was a bad thing. Although Ji Ling was only one, his martial arts skills were almost the same as Cao Bao, and he could not deal with Ji Ling, and he was also not Ji Ling's opponent.

Ji Ling was also a hot temper. When he heard Cao Bao say this, blood immediately surged on his head. He pointed at the position where Cao Bao was with a three-pointed and two-edged sword and said sternly: "Cao Bao, if you have the ability to come and fight with me for another thirty rounds, I will definitely take the head of your neck."

Cao Bao and Ji Ling fought with him. He knew very well how strong the other party was. How could he go over and seek abuse by himself? He could only hide among the soldiers and shout loudly: "If you want to kill someone Cao, come here by yourself!"

Although Ji Ling's martial arts are far better than Cao Bao and Mi Fang, he knew very well that it would be a death to charge against the thousands of troops on the opposite side. For the sake of the present, it would be better to find a way to wait until his subordinates arrived, and it would not be too late to deal with Cao Bao at that time.

Mi Fang heard Cao Bao shouting behind him, but he did not act rashly, but instead said to Ji Ling politely: "General Ji Ling, since this matter is a misunderstanding, why not stop here?"

Ji Ling originally wanted to wait until his subordinates arrived and compete with the troops in front of him. At present, he wanted to find a way to stabilize the other party so that he could not get out of it. Seeing Mi Fang so easy to talk to, he changed his mind temporarily. There were thousands of people on the other party, and even if he won, he would inevitably lose a lot of subordinates. There were fewer troops to bring to Licheng, and if he wanted to deal with Lu Bu, he would probably not be able to do so.

It was precisely for this reason that Ji Ling changed his mind and decided to stop when he was about to get along, no longer have the same knowledge as a product like Cao Bao, and continued to drive his way with his men and strive to reach Licheng as soon as possible. He quickly put his weapons on the saddle and bowed to Mi Fang: "Little General, we will have a date later!" After that, he turned his head and headed towards the road he came.

Seeing Ji Ling riding his horse, Mi Fang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Although the two had never fought, Ji Ling was a war-torn general who was born with a fierce aura, which made Mi Fang feel panicked. He even thought that if both sides really took action, he might not be able to walk in front of the other side for three rounds and would be killed off the horse. Now Ji Ling left happily, which was what he wanted.

After seeing Ji Ling go away, Cao Bao rode his horse to Mi Fang and asked with displeasure: "Zi Fang, why did you let Ji Ling go? I'm afraid of him? You know, you and I can join forces to kill him."

When Mi Fang heard Cao Bao say this, he was really amused and laughed. He thought that although he had a large number of soldiers, it was not easy to keep Ji Ling. Therefore, although he was full of resentment towards Cao Bao, considering that the other party was a popular man under the provincial governor Tao Qian, he could only smile and say: "General Cao, this person is a general under Yuan Yangzhou, and his martial arts may not be inferior to you and me. If we cannot take him down quickly, when his troops arrive, there will be a melee. You also know that Xuzhou's soldiers are negligent in the battle formation and may not be their opponent..."

"Okay, stop talking." Cao Bao just said casually, and really asked him to compete with Ji Ling again. He probably didn't have the courage. At this moment, he just saw Ji Ling leave, so he bit the bullet and said a few harsh words. When he heard Mi Fang say this, he was afraid that the other party would invite him to chase Ji Ling together, so he waved his hand and said, "Don't chase the enemy. Since he has escaped, let's go back to the city."

"Bah, shameless." Mi Fang despised Cao Bao fiercely in her heart, but she still said with a smile on the surface: "General Cao is right. Ji Ling saw that our army is powerful and knew it would be impossible, so she could only retreat obediently. Let's withdraw our troops and return to the city now."

Besides, Ji Ling walked less than two miles and ran into his own soldiers. When the army Sima saw Ji Ling come back, he quickly stepped forward and reported to him: "Report to the general, he killed 372 soldiers in Xuzhou, captured 108 people, and even acquaintances used the terrain to escape."

After listening to the report from the Army Sima, Ji Ling nodded and then ordered: "Release all the captured Xuzhou soldiers."

"What, let all the surrendered soldiers be released?" Military Sima couldn't help but show a surprised expression on his face when he heard Ji Ling say this: "General, why is this?"

"My lord ordered me to wait for Licheng to pass the general order to Lu Bu. We cannot delay too long here." Ji Ling rarely patiently explained to his subordinates: "The battle just now was caused by Cao Bao's provocation. If we kill all this Xuzhou army, we will inevitably make enemies with Tao Qian..."

"General!" When the army Sima heard this, he couldn't help but interrupt and said, "The Xuzhou army is cowardly and incompetent. So what if it makes enemies with them? Could it be that they dare to come and find our bad luck?"

"Yes, Xuzhou's troops are indeed not worth worrying, but don't forget that we are in Xuzhou at this moment. If Tao Qian is angry and he ordered soldiers from all over the country to encircle and suppress us, we will still be unable to deal with it." Ji Ling waved his hand to the Sima of the army and ordered: "Let everyone go. In this way, when we return from Licheng, we will not be intercepted by Xuzhou's troops."
