Lao Longze, looking at the river in the north and Xingyang in the south.

It is located ten miles southeast of Hucheng Pavilion and is the only way to Hucheng Pavilion.

It was early noon and the sky was gloomy.

A thick cloud floated from the southwest to cover the sun.

The wind swept across the old dragon ze and pulled the flags and flew.

A team of soldiers and horses lined up at the mouth of Lao Longze, with bright armor and shining swords and shields.

Ding Chen immediately stood in front of the formation.

The wind swept past his body and rolled up dust and sand.

But he didn't move, as if he was there like a stone statue, and why were his eyes?

In front of them are the coalition forces.

After Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin arrived, they immediately lined up to greet each other. However, after they lined up, they did not take any action.

In fact, Ding Chen could launch an attack when their position was not stable, but he did not take action.

The two sides confronted each other like this, and no one had the intention to greet each other.

Silent!

It's just silence.

That deadly silence made people frightened.

Occasionally, there would be a sound of war horses making due to anxiety. But at this time, they all seemed insignificant.

Over time, the gap between the soldiers on both sides became apparent.

The soldiers of the trap were still lined up in an orderly manner. Even though the wind was getting stronger and stronger, no one moved.

On the contrary, the soldiers on Xiahou Dun's side began to be upset, and some even spoke whispered, revealing a bit of messyness.

Yu Ven couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, and looked at Xiahou Dun, smiling bitterly and shook his head gently.

It was at this time that Cao Cao led a large group of troops to the battlefield, which caused the coalition's momentum to soar.

Four thousand soldiers were covered in black.

After Cao Cao learned that Ding Chen led his troops to block the road ahead, he was also very confused along the way and felt very embarrassed.

If possible, he really doesn't want to face off against Ding Chen.

But the current situation...

After meeting Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin, he finally made up his mind.

"Miaocai, follow me to see Ziyang."

After saying this, Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiahou Yuan hurriedly rushed forward, followed Cao Cao with Dian Weiyi and left and right, rushed out from under the formation flag, and came to the formation of the two armies.

"Ziyang, don't be fine."

Cao Cao saw Ding Chen from afar and rode his horse up.

Xiahou Yuan and Dian Wei were very tactful and kept a little distance from Cao Cao.

Seeing this, Ding Chen had no expression on his face.

He urged the horse to meet him. When the two of them were about ten steps away, they both held the horses and stared at each other.

Ah Man, but he is much haggard!

Ding Chen looked at Cao Cao a few times and sighed in his heart.

Cao Cao looked at Ding Chen and thought to himself: Ziyang is much more powerful and no longer lazy as before.

"Ziyang!"

Cao Cao swallowed and called out.

Ding Chen looked at him, his eyes showing a hint of disappointment.

How great would it be if you didn't come? I really don't want to be enemies with you. Why did you force me to be enemies with you?

He roared in his heart, but his face was as normal as he did not answer.

"Are you okay lately?"

"Cao Cao, you shouldn't ask me if it's okay, but your wife is okay."

Cao Cao couldn't help laughing: He was still so hard to speak, and a word made people feel very embarrassed.

However, he was not angry, but nodded and said, "What you said is, I should indeed ask my wife for good luck with An An first."

"They are very good, free from illness or disaster, but they are worried all day long, fearing for you.

Before I went to war, Ang was able to recite the thirteen chapters of Sun Wu... Well, he also practiced martial arts with me and said that he would help you kill the enemy in the future."

Hearing Ding Chen's words, Cao Cao couldn't help but look ashamed.

He closed his eyes and spoke for a long time, "Ziyang, you should understand that Dong thief is not popular with the people and is hated by the people of the world."

"Don't tell me what people's hearts are."

Ding Chen interrupted Cao Cao's words sternly, "You should know me very well, what does the people have to do with me?"

"you……"

“I don’t want to hear the big truths you said.

I only ask you one thing, now withdraw your troops and leave, I still regard you as my brother, and try my best to make my sister and Ang go back and reunite with you; of course, you can also stay, bring your troops through here, and then occupy Hucheng Pavilion."

Speaking of this, Ding Chen paused for a moment.

His eyes were so bright that he raised his big wand in his hand with one arm, and the void made a slash.

The soul-stimulating bead made a whimpering sound, as if a ghost crying and howling.

Ding Chen said: "As long as you can kill me, you can step through my body and pass here."

Cao Cao's face suddenly changed, and he looked at Ding Chen with a complicated expression.

"Ziyang, why are you trying to force me?"

"It's not me who forced you, it's you who forced me."

Ding Chen had a bright look and stared at Cao Cao.

In his heart, he still had a trace of expectation, hoping that Cao Cao could leave. Although he knew that this possibility was very small, he still held a trace of expectation. However, as time passed, that trace of expectation gradually turned into despair.

Cao Cao said: "Ziyang, you are like this, so I have no choice."

This sentence also shows Cao Cao's attitude.

What is the choice without any choice?

Ding Chen has followed Cao Cao for many years, but how could he not understand what he meant?

A smile appeared on his face.

But that smile is particularly bitter, and it is even more mixed with these points of difficulty explaining and not understanding.

“You have no choice, nor do I have no choice!

Brother, I will call you again. I have known you since I was a child, you have great ambitions and lofty ambitions.

From childhood to adulthood, I respect you very much, especially when you were the Northern Quarter of Luoyang, you dared not fear power, and Duandi was my hero. However, if you could not retreat, I had no way out! If you could take us away from Luoyang, even if you were a mountain of corpses and blood, I would have followed you. However, if you left us in Luoyang, I would have no way out.

You are going to pass here today, but I have to defeat you.

Since neither of you nor me has a choice, then just meet in life and death..."

While speaking, Ding Chen pulled out the ring-headed knife with his backhand, lifted up the battle robe and put it on the blade.

"Brother, from now on, you and I will have nothing to do with cutting off the robe and righteousness."

His wrist shook, and the battle robe was cut into two pieces.

One of them flew in the wind and fell in front of Cao Cao's horse.

Cao Cao's face suddenly changed. He lifted the reins and drove away.

However, he reacted quickly, but Ding Chen's speed was faster. The moment he cut off his battle robe, he rushed towards Cao Cao.

"Miaocai, save me!"

Cao Cao shouted and retreated to the formation.

Before Xiahou Yuan could react, Dian Wei had already jumped out of his horse.

"Don't hurt my lord."

He held a seven-foot sword in his hand and passed by Cao Cao, and stopped Ding Chen.

When Dian Wei was about to see him, he flipped his sword and slashed down. The blade teared the air and made a sharp whistle.
