The heavens began from the great age

Chapter 333
After taking in Erqiao, Yang Xiao lived quite comfortably in Xuzhou.

There are two beauties in the house, although Xiao Qiao will always use words to attack him.

But women in troubled times, after being accepted by others, also accept their fate. This can be regarded as a small game between husband and wife.

Outside, they led troops out from time to time to intercept Ji Ling's food supply, only to beat Ji Ling to the point of suffering.

However, within half a year, some good news came from the direction of Wancheng.

Although Liu Biao had reinforcements, Zhang Xiu was still no match for Cao Cao's army.

Had to surrender to Cao, Liu Bei could only roll back to Jingzhou in despair.

Next, Cao Cao entered Wancheng.

Just like what happened in history, the old boy Cao Cao fell in love with Zhang Ji's widow, Zou, and took her in.

This made Zhang Xiu so angry that he planned to attack Cao Cao.

Not only killed Cao Cao's confidant and beloved general Dian Wei, but even his two sons Cao Ang and Cao Pi were killed.

Of course, there is also Cao Anmin, Cao Cao's nephew.

Regarding this matter, Yang Xiao already knew the result and process.

He was delighted that Cao Pi, as he thought, also lost his life to Wancheng.

Yuan Shu, who got the news, saw that he couldn't take advantage of the fire, so he could only order Ji Ling to withdraw his troops and return to Shouchun, which can be regarded as breaking the siege of Xuzhou.

But Cao Cao is really strong, even though he suffered such a setback.

But after returning to Yanzhou, he immediately regained his fighting spirit and tried to regroup his troops and horses to fight Wancheng again.

But who knows, at this time, Yuan Shao has already pacified Gongsun Zan in the north!
Tun Dajun stationed in Yanjin and Baima, ready to attack Cao Cao.

In desperation, Cao Cao could only order troops to be stationed at Guandu to resist Yuan Jun.

However, he still had to guard against Yuan Shu, and instead of transferring Yang Xiao to Guandu, he let him live a good life here in Xuzhou.

Of course, Yang Xiao would not do this!
In the battle of Guandu, Cao Cao must win.

When the time comes, meritorious deeds will be rewarded, without his share, how embarrassing it would be!

He simply wrote a letter to Cao Cao and asked Guo Huai to deliver it in person.

Then, live sheep were collected in Xuzhou and other places.

"General, Duke Cao has agreed to our attack on Ye City!"

After the ten thousand live sheep were collected, Guo Huai rushed over from Guandu excitedly and told Yang Xiao the good news.

"Very well, the whole army, let's go!"

Yang Xiao cried out excitedly, and gave an order.

Not long after, three thousand archers were ready, and each of them had two live sheep tied to their horses.

This kind of behavior really makes all bow riders feel strange.

Even Guo Huai is the same.

But if Yang Xiao didn't say anything, he could only hold back.

Soon, the cavalry arrived at the bank of the Yellow River.

After ordering the scouts to find a place where the water flow was calm, Yang Xiaocai ordered the live sheep to be killed.

After securing a meal of mutton, he again ordered the sheepskin to be sewn up and blown on.

With two sheep bags tied to Hongyun's side, Yang Xiao drove Hongyun into the water.

Immediately, a strange scene happened.

With the help of the buoyancy of the sheep's bag, Hong Yun floated to the surface of the water even though it was supporting Yang Xiao.

You must know that horses know how to swim. With four hooves paddling, Yang Xiao went to the other side as if he was sitting in a small boat.

"Quick! Quick! Follow the general's method!"

Seeing Yang Xiao's appearance, Guo Huai suddenly realized.

Just now, was he still worried because he couldn't find enough ferries to cross the river?

Unexpectedly, when Yang Xiao was in Xuzhou, he was already ready.

How did he know that this is actually a way for future generations.

When the cavalry of the Yuan army attacked Dali, they used this method to cross the Dadu River by force, and finally destroyed Dali's Guozuo.

After crossing the river, the journey is smooth.

Although the two armies were at war, due to the natural danger of the Yellow River and the fact that Yuan Jun collected all the boats crossing the river, no one paid attention to precautions.

The army sneaked into the vicinity of Yecheng quite easily.

However, at this point, it was a little difficult.

After all, this Yuan is not that Yuan.

On Yuan Shu's side, the army's morale is scattered!
But Yuan Shao's side is as imposing as a rainbow because they have just leveled Gongsun Zan.

In particular, Yecheng was Yuan Shao's old den, and the guards were quite tight, and there were scouts and cavalry everywhere on the road.

Several times, Yang Xiao's troops were almost discovered.

"Go to Wuji!"

Unable to lead the brigade to touch Yecheng, how could Yang Xiao complete the attack on Yecheng by himself alone.

Just when he was in trouble, a passing caravan gave him a reminder.

Immediately, the order was given to turn around, and the army rushed straight towards Wuji County.

The Wuji Zhen family was in chaos.

Looking at the soldiers who suddenly surrounded his family like wolves and tigers.

Zhen Yi was so angry that his face turned pale, he took out his sword and pointed it at Yang Xiao, "You are really brave, do you know that this is Wuji Zhen's family? My sister is the wife of Yuan Xi, the second son of Yuan Gong! If you act recklessly, aren't you afraid that the general will chop off your dog's head?"

"Then Yuan Shao must beat Duke Cao first!"

Yang Xiao sneered and walked in front of Zhen Yi.

"Are you Cao Cao's soldiers?"

Zhen Yi suddenly realized, his face turned pale with fright.

"The third son's answer is correct! It's a pity that there is no reward! The general brought people here to ask the third son to do Yang a favor!"

Walking in front of Zhen Yi, Yang Xiao put the ring head knife on his neck.

"No, in this case, the general will not let our Zhen family go!"

Hearing that Yang Xiao asked him to help them sneak into Yecheng, Zhen Yi was shocked.

"If you don't obey, I'll bloodbath the Zhen family right now! If you go with me, the whole family can follow someone across the Yellow River to vote for Duke Cao. If you don't obey, there will be no Wuji Zhen family in this world anymore!"

Yang Xiao said coldly.

There is still life in a road.

One way is family ruin.Zhen Yi is not a strong man, so of course he will know how to choose.

After clearing up his wealth and gathering his family, he had no choice but to organize a caravan and rush to Yecheng.

Of course, Yuan Jun will be interrogated in the middle.

But Zhen Yi managed it well.

It is only said that the second son Yuan Xi asked him to buy war horses and send them to Yecheng to support the Yuan family in fighting against Cao.

The Wuji Zhen family is well-known in Hebei. Almost everyone knows that the fifth young lady of the Zhen family, Zhen Mi, married Yuan Xi, and now Zhen Yi is personally leading the team.

Along the way, there is no doubt about him.

Let Yang Xiao and his party reach Yecheng smoothly.

"General, I can only take you here! The cavalry is not allowed to enter the city. This is the rule set by the general!"

When he arrived at the city of Yecheng, Zhen Yi found Yang Xiao with a sad face.

"Nothing, I have my own opinion here!"

Yang Xiao patted his shoulder and gave Guo Huai another wink.

Then he took another 50 people to Yecheng.

After queuing for a quarter of an hour, it was soon Yang Xiao's turn.

But look, Yang Xiao and the others are all extremely capable, and they all carry weapons.

The city gate officer waved his hand vigilantly, and immediately a group of soldiers surrounded them.
