Chapter 125 Reaching Fengqiu
Chapter 125 Reaching Fengqiu
Fan Kui pointed to the looming city ahead and said, "Master, Fengqiu is ahead."

After the last Yiyang incident, Ye Xiao transferred Fan Kui back from Huaiyang County to go out with him.

After several battles, Ye Xiao specially selected a hundred elites from the Bai family army and the Yue family army to be his guard.

These guards are not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also superior in strategy. At this moment, Yue Ying, the captain of the guards, came out and said.

"My lord, here is Jizhou, Yanzhou, and Yingchuan. It stands to reason that no matter whether it is Yuan Shao or Cao Cao, someone should occupy this city, but you see that the gate of this city is indeed open. It seems that there are no guards at all. There may be fraud. !"

When Ye Xiao heard what Yue Ying said, he raised his eyes and looked over. Sure enough, the situation was exactly the same as what Yue Ying said. Ye Xiao had an ominous premonition in his heart.

"Help!"

Just as Ye Xiao was thinking, a man ran out shouting and running, followed by two or three soldiers on horseback.

Seeing this, Ye Xiao hurriedly signaled the only team of cavalry around him to rush over. The soldiers on the opposite side had no time to react and were cut off by this team of cavalry. The man who was running just now was also brought in front of Ye Xiao by Ye Xiao's men.

"Who are you? What happened in the city?"

Fan Kui looked at the disheveled man and asked, the man was still in shock and didn't know what to say for a while.

"Give him a bag of water!"

Ye Xiao looked at the man in panting clothes and said to his subordinates, who heard Ye Xiao's order and handed the clothes and water to the man.

The man opened the water bag without saying a word, and drank the water inside in one gulp, at this moment.

"Anything to eat?"

Hearing what the man said, Ye Xiao waved his hand and asked his subordinates to hand him some dry food. After eating and drinking, the man tidied up his clothes and saluted Ye Xiao.

"Little man Sun He, from Fengqiu."

"What happened in the city?"

Sun He looked at Ye Xiao and said: "Returning to the general, a large number of troops suddenly appeared in Fengqiu three days ago and attacked Fengqiu. I ran out in the chaos, but I was discovered by someone, and I was hunted down to this point, fortunately, there was a general who rescued me."

Ye Xiao frowned when he heard Sun He say this and asked, "Is it the Yellow Turban Army? Or the local bandits?"

Sun He shook his head and said it was neither.

"It's Yuan Shao's army in Jizhou."

Hearing this, Ye Xiao immediately became vigilant. You must know that Yuan Shao has just pacified Jizhou. According to the progress of history, he should be preparing to fight Gongsun Zan at this time, but now he appeared in Fengqiu.

Then there is only one explanation: Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan reached a temporary peace, and then he came to support Cao Cao.

"My lord, it seems that Yuan Shao has come to support Cao Cao."

After Yue Ying heard the news, she turned her head and said to Ye Xiao, Ye Xiao nodded her head in agreement when she heard what Yue Ying said.

"But if you are supporting Cao Cao, why attack Yanzhou?"

While Ye Xiao was thinking, Fan Kui spoke.

"In my opinion, this Yuan Shao just wants to occupy Yanzhou in the name of support."

Hearing this, Ye Xiao's eyes brightened. Yes, although the forces in Yanzhou intend to welcome Cao Cao into Yanzhou, this does not prevent Yuan Shao from attacking Yanzhou. After all, there are no real friends in today's troubled times. Only territory is the most real .

"Sun He, how long have those Jizhou soldiers entered Fengqiu now? How many are there?"

"If you go back to the general, it will take up to an hour! I don't know how many people there are."

An hour, then it proves that Yuan Shao's army has not gained a firm foothold at this time, which is a great opportunity for Ye Xiao.

"Everyone, speed up and take down Fengqiu."

Ye Xiao gave an order, and the troops he led started to head towards Fengqiu.

Just when we were about to reach the city of Fengqiu, suddenly more than 300 cavalrymen rushed out. These cavalrymen were all wearing the unique costumes of Jizhou cavalrymen. .

Seeing the word "Wen" on the flag, Ye Xiao said to himself, "Wen Shao's general is named Wen? That should be Wen Chou."

Wen Chou is Guan Yu's world-renowned experience bag, Ye Xiao did not expect him to meet him.

It turned out that the cavalry who were chasing people just now returned to Fengqiu and told the guards in the city what had happened, and the guards hurriedly dispatched cavalry to attack after hearing this.

When Ye Xiao was less than a hundred steps away from Wen Chou's cavalry, Ye Xiao hurriedly ordered everyone to stop.

The cavalry on the opposite side were overjoyed when they saw that Ye Xiao had stopped advancing. You must know that the distance of a hundred steps is enough for the cavalry to charge.

But just when they were happy, Ye Xiao waved his hand, and saw the soldiers standing in front took out the large shields on their backs and stood in front of them, and then countless crossbowmen came out from behind them.

Looking at the nearly 500 crossbows, Yuan Shao's cavalry panicked. They knew that if they shot all the crossbows, they would not die.

Seeing that the cavalry was about to retreat, the general of the cavalry shouted.

"Brothers, if we retreat, Fengqiu's army will be in chaos. All we can do now is charge!"

Under the encouragement of the general, those cavalry who wanted to retreat also reined in and made a gesture of charging.

Seeing this scene, Ye Xiao couldn't help admiring Yuan Shao's ability to govern the army and recruit talents. After all, if this situation were faced by another prince, the cavalry of more than 300 people would have already run away.

"rush!"

Following the general's order, more than 300 cavalry rushed over.Ye Xiao saw the timing and gave the order.

"put!"

Following Ye Xiao's order, more than 500 crossbow arrows fell towards the cavalry like raindrops.

"what!"

"Xiao'er! Xing'er!"

The screams of people mixed with the screams of war horses.

"Shields are ready!"

After a round of crossbow arrows was shot, although most of the cavalry were casualties, there were still nearly a hundred cavalrymen who rushed in front of everyone.

"prick!"

Following the order of the shield centurion, countless spears stabbed out from behind the shield.

"Ah! Ah!"

"Xiao'er! Xing'er!"

The shield soldier didn't know that he was stabbed anyway, and it was a stab anyway. Slowly, all the sounds on the battlefield except the soldier's breathing disappeared.

"My lord, the enemy cavalry has been wiped out!"

The centurion came to Ye Xiao to report. Ye Xiao looked at the corpses on the battlefield and said calmly.

"Clean the battlefield, Yue Ying, you lead a team to investigate the situation in the city first."

Ye Xiao was afraid that the [-] cavalry were just bait, and there were other troops in the city, so Yue Ying led the team and rushed in first.

After about a cup of tea, Yue Ying came out and said.

"My lord, it's safe inside!"

Ye Xiao was very puzzled when he heard this. You must know that since Yuan Shao wanted to occupy Fengqiu, he wouldn't have sent [-] cavalry. Moreover, these people used the flag with the word "Wen", but they didn't see Wen Chou.

Ye Xiao said to his subordinates for the sake of safety.

"The scouts will increase their exploration efforts, and the others will enter the city!"
