Zhang Liao was injured by Ma Chao and besieged by Yuan's army. He and his soldiers were in danger.

Seeing that he was surrounded by Yuan's army, the soldiers guarding around Zhang Liao began to panic. A confidant stuttered and said to Zhang Liao with a trembling voice: "Zhang, General Zhang, Yuan's army is surrounded, I am here, what should we do?"

Zhang Liao looked around and saw that there were almost all Yuan's soldiers on the front, back and left and right. He couldn't help but sighed, then turned to see the Cao soldiers around him. They were almost all covered with despair, and most of them were covered with despair. He sighed quietly and said nothing.

At this time, a guard who was close to Zhang Liao whispered: "General Zhang... Actually, if it really doesn't work, I will surrender, right? After all, you... you and Yuan Shang's wife, Lu, are also old acquaintances..."

He was only halfway through his words. Zhang Liao's eyebrows were already standing up, his eyes widened, and he stared at the spoken guard fiercely, and said sternly: "Don't surrender in front of me, I, Zhang Liaoning, will not surrender!"

"General Zhang..."

Although Li Dianlejin broke through the siege, it is still unknown whether he could escape completely. Zhang Liao's soldiers were either killed or injured, either surrendered or were broken up, and the remaining trapped beasts still had no intention of fighting. He himself was injured by Ma Chao. Now he was surrounded. If he persisted, he would be killed by the enemy.

Moreover, the people around Zhang Liao had no fighting spirit, so they all surrounded him and looked at Zhang Liao with a gaze. Surrender was not the meaning of one person, but they all had this intention.

No one is not afraid of death, especially when people still have a way out.

Another general of Cao army said tremblingly: "I heard that Yuan Shang is not bloodthirsty. If...... I surrender now, I don't think Yuan Shang will do anything to us... I heard that he has never killed the prisoners..."

"Hahaha~~" Zhang Liao suddenly burst into laughter. He looked around him and stopped laughing for a while. He asked, "Don't kill the surrendered generals? Nonsense! Haven't you ever seen what Yan Xing ended?"

Everyone looked at each other and bowed their heads and said nothing.

After pausing, Zhang Liao also felt that the reason he listed was a bit far-fetched. Then he smiled bitterly, shook his head and sighed: "Yes, you can surrender to Yuan Shang, shake his tail and beg for mercy to him, and ask him to spare your life, but I will never do that. I, Zhang Liao, received the kindness of the first lord, and never repayed him. Even if I die, I will die upright and openly, and die as a general of Cao's army! I have no regrets and no shame in the nine springs."

Zhang Liao said this so that everyone around him blushed and bowed their heads in guilt, and they did not dare to say the word "success" to Zhang Liao.

In fact, Zhang Liao knew in his heart that if he surrendered now, Yuan Shang would definitely not kill him. On the contrary, he might even use him very seriously!

But even so, Zhang Liao didn't want to surrender to Yuan. He had no choice but to surrender to Cao Cao once under Lu Bu's command. Now if he abandoned Cao and surrendered to Yuan again, how would the world think of him Zhang Liao?

Those who are greedy for life and fear of death or those who admire Qin and Chu? He doesn’t want to get such a review!

Zhang Liao is not very handsome, and he always regards himself as a warrior. He really can't do such a despicable thing that can provoke the world to curse!

It was at this moment that the Yuan army's camp suddenly opened, and a chariot came to Zhang Liao and others under the protection of the Yuan army generals and the elite Yuan army.

Zhang Liao and others were watching the visitor vigilantly, that is, Yuan Shang in the car.

Seeing Yuan Shang's appearance, the remaining Cao soldiers were all frightened and sweaty. Only Zhang Liao was not afraid. With the support of the two soldiers on both sides, he supported his body with a knife, with no fear on his face, and was calm. He stood up and glanced around the soldiers around him with his eyes, snorted coldly, and scolded in a deep voice: "What are you afraid of? Your head fell off, and you have a big scar! You straightened your back!"

After standing up, Zhang Liao couldn't help but twitch. The wound on his leg was pierced by Ma Chao was big and deep. As soon as he stood up, the weight of his body was pressed against the wound. The feeling of splitting pain was not something that ordinary people could tolerate.

Zhang Liao was extremely strong, gritted his teeth and said without saying a word. He looked at the people, sneered, and said, "Yuan Shang! Now, if you want to kill and scrape it, you will listen to the emperor. If I say a word, I will not call Zhang Liao!"

"What are you crazy about?" A young general next to Yuan Shang, with a big and round waist, looked up and down at Zhang Liao, and said with a snorting smile: "Zhang Liao, you are so injured, you can't stand firmly, and you are talking wildly. I think you want to rush to see Cao Cao"!

The general who spoke was Yuan Jun's brave general, Wang Shuang.

Zhang Liao gave Wang Shuang a blank look, and the corner of his mouth was almost thrown under his ears with disdain. He didn't look at him directly, and said proudly: "What are you? You don't have the time to speak in front of me, so get out of here!"

Seeing this, Wang Shuang gritted his teeth and said that this guy was about to die, but his arrogance was higher than before. He was about to sarcastically say a few words to him, but Yuan Shang stood up and raised his hand to stop him.

"Zhang Liao, you're done with this war." Yuan Shang said calmly.

Zhang Liao curled his lips disdainfully and said, "Heroes do not fear death! I, Zhang Liao, ended up now, just destiny, and I have nothing to say!"

Yuan Shang smiled slightly: "Direction? Do you attribute this victory to destiny? In this way, General Wen Yuan seems to be unwilling to accept it?"

"Hmph!" Zhang Liao snorted and said, "If you hadn't set up a cunning plan and came to fight against the Wu army and slander us, Xuzhou's situation might not be yours! Just a treacherous villain's method, why would you be convinced?"

Yuan Shang shook his head and said, "Zhang Liao, you have been following Cao Cao for many years. Why are you still following Lu Bushi? The so-called "strike" is never tired of deceit, head-on confrontation and conspiracy are just a means. The purpose is to win. As long as you can win, Yuan doesn't care what means he uses."

Zhang Liao gritted his teeth and said, "Despicable villain!"

"If Cao Cao was alive and used my method, would you say he was a villain?"

"Sir, you deserve to be compared with the First Lord?"

Yuan Shang was unwilling to talk to Zhang Liao on this meaningless topic. He said slowly: "General Wen Yuan, no matter what, the winner is decided now. Should you talk about your choice? There are two ways in front of you, one is surrender, and the other is a dead end. If you choose the former, Yuan will consider not killing you. I can also mediate from it and resolve the grudge between you and Lingqi..."

Before Yuan Shang finished speaking, Zhang Liao shouted sternly: "Yuan Shang, let me surrender to you, don't dream!"

As he spoke, he shook the knife to the ground and took two steps forward, but he couldn't help but shake because of the severe pain in the wound on his leg. Although Zhang Liao's expression did not change much, beads of sweat as big as beans flowed down his temples.

He raised the knife in his hand, pointed at Yuan Shang's nose from afar, and said, "Yuan Shang, since I met you, we have fought with each other for more than ten times. We have never understood each other. Today, do you dare to have a complete conclusion with me? Either you die or I die!!"

Yuan Shang knew that Zhang Liao would not surrender easily with his honor and disgrace and dignity. He looked at Zhang Liao, who was bleeding too much and had a pale face. His eyes moved down and looked at the wounds on his legs. The blood was ticking downward along his legs, and a huge pool of water flowed under his feet.

"What do you want to end?"

"Send your best generals to fight to the death with me!"

Before he could finish his words, he saw Ma Chao on Yuan Shang’s right snorting and said, “Zhang Liao. You and I have just decided to win. If you are now injured, I will be defeated!”

Zhang Liao waved his sword and interrupted Ma Chao's words, saying, "Ma Chao, don't talk big! You dared to decide life and death with Xu Chu back then, but today you dare not compete with me for the victory or defeat? Is it because you are afraid of losing to me and losing your title as the number one general in Xizhou?"

Seeing Zhang Liao so arrogant, Ma Chao couldn't help but feel angry and said, "Okay, since you are seeking death by yourself, then I will fulfill your wish!"

Zhang Liao could not ride a horse at this moment, and Ma Chao did not take advantage of him. He turned over and dismounted the horse and was about to fight Zhang Liao with his gun, but Yuan Shang called out.

"Wait a moment!"

Ma Chao turned his head and looked at Yuan Shang in confusion.

Yuan Shang whispered to Ma Chao: "You can't see that he is asking for death."

Ma Chao was stunned when he heard this: "What does it mean?"

"Zhang Liao knew that he had no hope of survival today, but he didn't want to die silently. So he took the opportunity to challenge you, wanting to die in your hands, and return it in a corpse, which would not be considered his reputation!"

Ma Chao frowned when he heard this and said, "Master, what should I do?"

Yuan Shang whispered: "You will do this later..."

“…………”

“…………”

"Understood!"

After listening to Yuan Shang's instructions, Ma Chao immediately walked towards Zhang Liao with a gun, and Zhang Liao also smiled and walked towards Ma Chao with a sword. Every time he took a step, a red blood mark would be left under his feet.

Soon, the distance between the two was only four or five steps wide. If it were normal, this was within the range of the two, but now neither of them took action.

They looked at each other with smiles on their faces. Zhang Liao said quietly: "Ma Chao, show your skills to let me see!"

"Let the horse come here!" Ma Chao responded in a cold voice.

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Liao took a step forward and slashed Ma Chao's head with a knife.

Zhang Liao had an injury on his leg, but his arms were fine. He slashed out with one knife and was extremely powerful. The blade broke through the wind and made a harsh hissing sound.

Ma Chao did not take Zhang Liao's heavy sword, and turned his body and turned to Zhang Liao like a whirlwind. He did not stab the spear but hit him, and rushed straight to Zhang Liao's heavenly spirit.

Zhang Liao had difficulty in legs and feet and could not dodge, so he slashed Ma Chao's neck with a backhand.

Ma Chao immediately stopped the move, jumped backward, avoiding Zhang Liao's sword. The two of them were about to part with each other. It seemed that no one had any advantage, but anyone with a discerning eye knew that Ma Chao was now controlling the battle situation casually.

Ma Chao just had a move just to test, wanting to see if Zhang Liao was inconvenient to move as Yuan Shang said. After testing, it was true that, and then he felt relieved.

In the next battle, Ma Chao did not fight Zhang Liao head-on, but only took advantage of Zhang Liao's weakness of leg inconvenience to avoid Zhang Liao's attacks. He went forward to tease him, but he retreated with one blow, which only made Zhang Liao's angry forehead angry.

"Ma Chao, are you a general? What kind of ability are you hiding from all over the world? Do you dare to fight me with me?"

Ma Chao ignored him.

In a blink of an eye, the two of them had fought for more than ten rounds. Ma Chao was fine, but Zhang Liao had several guns on his armor, but none of them were injured.

Zhang Liao was so anxious that he wanted to die in the last battle of his life with a famous general in the world. Although he could not be admired by later generations, he would be remembered forever.

Unexpectedly, Ma Chao was abnormal. He didn't give him this opportunity, and he didn't fight or fight. He just spent his time enjoying him like walking a dog. Zhang Liao was so tired that he wanted to fight hard. But Zhang Liao was not good at his legs now. He knew what Ma Chao was trying to do, but he couldn't change it.

Zhang Liao was exhausted and panting. Ma Chao was normal. Seeing that he had been struggling for almost forty rounds, Yuan Shang in the distance suddenly spoke: "Stop——!"

As soon as Ma Chao heard the order, he retreated violently and jumped out of the field.

Zhang Liao's legs were trembling and hesitantly looked up at Yuan Shang.

Yuan Shang stood up, applauded vigorously, and said, "General Zhang was seriously injured and fought on foot. He could still tie with my powerful general Ma Chao. Yuan Shang really admired this great perseverance and persistence... I was convinced!"

After saying that, he saw Yuan Shang turn around, looking at the generals, and whisper aloud: "Everyone, what kind of spirit does General Zhang have?"

Zhang He replied after hearing this: "This is a fearless, wise and brave heroic spirit!"

Yuan Shang nodded and said, "Deep."

Gao Lan replied: "This is a tough guy spirit who knows that he cannot do it but is brave enough to do it!"

Yuan Shang also nodded: "It's true."

Zhang Ji said: "This is a fearless spirit that does not regard death as a fear, does not regard fear as a panic. It makes people feel infinite emotion and endlessly thoughtful!"

Yuan Shang sighed with sarcasm: "Incisive!"

Wang Shuang scratched her head, thought for a while, and replied: "This is a barefoot person who is not afraid of wearing shoes. He relies on his broken shoes and does not thorn feet, and often stays by the river without wetting his shoes!"

Yuan Shang was silent for a while when he heard this, he sighed helplessly: "The words are rough but the truth is not rough."

Zhang Liao stared at Yuan Shang, frowned and said, "Yuan Shang, what do you mean?"

Yuan Shang smiled slightly when he heard this and said, "I mean, General Zhang, your extraordinary spirit of treating death as if he were to be together and standing up to the earth moved me and my subordinates! If a man like you, wouldn't I be hit by the sky and thunder?"

Zhang Liao was a little stunned when he heard this.
