Chapter 127 Ye Xiao's Guess

The person who spoke was Yue Ying. Seeing this, Ye Xiao hurriedly put on the padded coat that he had just taken off after eating, and walked over to open the door. After opening the door, he saw that Yue Ying's complexion was a little purple, and Ye Xiao hurriedly pulled Yue Ying in. Pass him a jug of wine.

"Drink it in one gulp, and then drink the broth."

Yue Ying was naturally not polite, he picked up the jug, took off the lid of the jug, and drank the wine in the jug.

After drinking, Yue Ying drank half of the broth, then Yue Ying licked her lips and said.

"My lord, I led the scouts to discover Wen Chou's troops just now."

Ye Xiao looked at Yue Ying whose expression was almost relaxed and asked.

"how many people!"

Yue Ying took a breath and said, "At that time, I only brought 15 people with me, and I didn't dare to get too close, but looking at the cooking smoke in the camp, it is estimated that there are no less than 2 people."

"Which way are they now?"

"South."

"South?"

Ye Xiao frowned when he heard this, and felt that something was wrong, he hurriedly took out the map, and soon he discovered the clues, and saw him shouting at Yue Ying.

"Quickly, order the three armies to assemble!"

Following Ye Xiao's order, the soldiers in Fengqiu City began to gather in an instant.

"My lord, is Yuan Shao's army coming to attack?"

Ye Xiao shook his head and said: "The scouts found Wen Chou's generals on the south side of Fengqiu Cheng. There are tens of thousands of them."

"My lord, isn't the south side the territory of Yanzhou? Could it be that Yuan Shao has already taken Yanzhou?!"

Fan Kui guessed after hearing Ye Xiao's news, Ye Xiao shook his head and said to everyone.

"After we captured Fengqiu that day, we didn't see any enemies, so there is only one possibility, and that is that Fengqiu is just a passing "supply" place for Yuan Shao, and his real goal is to support Cao Cao! "

"Support Cao Cao?! Isn't he going to take Yanzhou?"

Fan Kui asked back about his speculation a few days ago, Ye Xiao shook his head when he heard this.

"No, in today's world, there are many people who can compete with Yuan Shao, such as Dong Zhuo in Chang'an, and Gongsun Zan in Qingzhou. At this time, Dong Zhuo and Gongsun Zan are already Yuan Shao's enemies. I don't think Yuan Shao is so stupid to offend Cao Cao. Regarding the relationship with Yuan Shao, I guess Yuan Shao must want to unite with Cao Cao."

Hearing this, Fan Kui also understood that Yuan Shao had just settled in Jizhou and was still unstable. He had to face Gongsun Zan in the north and Dong Zhuo in the south. If there was one more Cao Cao, then Yuan Shao would not be far from perishing.

"But my lord, it's about to enter the night, isn't it a little bit for us to send troops?"

Ye Xiao naturally knew what Fan Kui was worried about. He was worried that marching at night would cause inconvenience to the army. After all, there was no such advanced lighting technology in ancient times. The only thing that could illuminate was torches, and the lighting of torches was unstable.

At this time, outside Xinji County, Cao Cao, Cao Ren, and Xiahou Dun sat on their horses and looked into the distance.

"Master, do you think Wen Chou's army will come on time?"

When Cao Cao heard Cao Ren's words, he looked into the distance and said.

"Should come back, I won't break my promise at the beginning."

Xiahoudun sat on his horse and said, "But my lord, the scouts ahead came to report that Yuan Shao had captured Fengqiu."

"It's just a small Fengqiu. As long as we can enter Yanzhou, losing a few cities is nothing."

Cao Ren nodded, he can understand this point, after all, ordinary people ask others to help at home, and also ask others to eat to express their gratitude, not to mention the current situation is that Cao Cao has something to ask Yuan Shao, let alone a Fengqiu, even now Yuan Shao Cao Cao had no choice but to agree to the entire Chen stay.

"My lord, there is a fire in the distance, could it be someone from Baiqi?"

Cao Ren looked at the flames in the distance and shouted to Cao Cao. Cao Cao looked in the direction Cao Ren pointed, and sure enough, the flames were burning into the sky.

"Send scouts to investigate. Everyone is ready to fight!"

Following Cao Cao's order, the scout team galloped out on their horses.

"My lord, it's Yuan Shao's army!"

Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard that it was Yuan Shao's army, and asked excitedly, "Who is in command of the army!"

"My lord, it's Wen Chou!"

"Quickly, order the three armies to lift their alert and prepare to meet General Wen Chou!"

Soon Wen Chou led his soldiers outside Cao Cao's camp.

"I'm ugly below, under the order of my lord Yuan Shao to support Duke Cao!"

Seeing this, Cao Cao hurriedly greeted him, held Wen Chou's hands tightly and said, "I look forward to the support at the beginning of the year as I look forward to the sun and the moon!"

Wen Chou looked at Cao Cao and said with a smile: "Mr. Cao is exaggerating. My lord asked me to lead [-] elites and [-] stones of grain and grass to support immediately after receiving Mr. Cao's request for help!"

Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard that there was food and grass, but now his food and grass have bottomed out.

"I don't know why General Wen Chou wants to occupy Fengqiu!"

Cao Ren stepped forward, looked at Wen Chou and asked, Cao Cao was angry when he heard Cao Ren's words, but he didn't say a word.

"My department wants to transfer food and grass through Fengqiu, but the county magistrate of Fengqiu is unwilling. After repeated negotiations to no avail, we have no choice but to attack the city!"

"Are you going to attack the city if the negotiation fails?"

Cao Ren pressed on. At this time, Cao Cao couldn't bear it anymore and said angrily, "Cao Ren, what are you doing! General Wen Chou is here to support us, how can you ask such a question! Go back and get thirty army sticks!"

Cao Cao knew that it was because Cao Cao wanted something from him at this time, so he admitted it so confidently.

Facing Cao Cao's scolding, Cao Ren didn't say anything, and obediently went down to lead the baton.

Just when Cao Ren was leading the stick, Xun Yu came over and looked at the dejected Cao Ren and asked.

"Why is the general so discouraged?"

Cao Ren told Xun Yu what happened just now, and Xun Yu laughed and said after hearing it.

"My lord, this is because I love you."

Cao Ren said aggrievedly: "I know, but that ugly text is too deceptive!"

"We have to ask others now, there is no way."

After being comforted by Xun Yu, Cao Ren honestly went to get the military sticks, of course, these military sticks were just for show.

Cao Cao led Wen Chou into the tent, Cao Cao looked at Wen Chou and said.

"General Wen Chou is exhausted, let's rest for a while tonight, and we will attack Xinji County tomorrow!"

Wen Chou waved his hand when he heard Cao Cao's words.

"No, we will attack Xinji County tonight."

"Tonight?! Will you be in a hurry?"

Facing Cao Cao's question, Wen Chou told Cao Cao about Fengqiu being occupied by Ye Xiao, and Cao Cao was shocked when he heard it.

"Ye Xiao arrived in Fengqiu so quickly?"

Wen Chou nodded, looked at Cao Cao and said, "He directly entered Fengqiu via Sili."

At this time Cao Cao had to admire Ye Xiao's courage, who knew that Sili was Dong Zhuo's territory, and Dong Zhuo regarded them as a thorn in his side, but why did Dong Zhuo let Ye Xiao pass?Because Dong Zhuo was dead at this time.
