Chapter 153 Let Lao Cao repent in sorrow!
When the white color of fish belly appeared on the sky to the east of Wancheng, several sounds of Si Chen's calls were heard from the mountain forest.
Xi Yu raised his head and looked in the direction of Wancheng.
Against the background of the skylight, the firelight in Wancheng seemed to be a little faint.
Across a distance of two or three miles, the green smoke floating in the sky slowly went straight up.
"Let's go!"
After saying hello to Huang Zhong, Xi Yu turned around and started heading back and forth in the direction of Xuchang.
The situation in Wancheng is pretty much the same now.
Xiyu is no longer worried about the rest.
At this time, the soldiers from the baggage camp who were left behind were pushing wooden carts. Cao Ang and Cao Anmin were still awake.
The injuries on the two of them were not serious problems, but the fierce battle last night had already made them mentally exhausted.
The road from Wancheng to Xuchang is not far. Even if you travel slowly, it only takes about two or three days.
Xiyu rode on Jueying, taking his time and not in a hurry.
By this time, Dian Wei, who had almost recovered, was walking closely beside Jueying.
"Sir, I really know I was wrong!"
I don’t know how many times Dian Wei has said this. This guy has no brains. After making a mistake, he still said something at the beginning.
After turning over and over again, there was only one sentence left that I knew I was wrong.
Xi Yu planned to give this guy a try, but under such circumstances, Dian Wei couldn't help but feel worried.
If this incident makes my husband angry, what should I do if my husband doesn’t allow me to be a dormitory guard?
Dian Wei has finally thought about what happened this time.
I'm afraid I knew from the beginning that I would make a mistake on this trip.
That's why the husband did not allow himself to go on an expedition.
The husband himself is a person who doesn't like fighting. Being able to chase Dian Wei out of Xuchang for him already made Dian Wei feel a little guilty.
Now, thanks to the appearance of Mr. Yu, he is lucky enough to survive.
During this time, Dian Wei felt as if a huge boulder was pressing down on his heart.
It was so heavy that he couldn't breathe.
"Sir, you can't live without me. I'm your only bodyguard!"
Maybe it’s because Xiyu didn’t respond after talking for a long time.
At this time, Dianwei didn't know if it was because he had an enlightenment or something, but he suddenly started to change his mind.
As soon as he said this, Xi Yu turned his head and glanced at him.
There was some contempt at the corner of his mouth.
"Su Wei, do you really think I lack a Su Wei?"
"ah!"
Dian Wei was a little overwhelmed by these words. Is Mr. missing a bodyguard?
It seems that he, the resident guard, usually has nothing important to do. What's more, there are really people in this world who can hurt Mr. Dianwei, and he, Dianwei, can't stop him.
"Then sir, I still have to lead your horse and kick it!"
Dian Wei scratched his head.
Xi Yu smiled again: "Oh, for this matter, your husband, I can spend some money and hire a servant anywhere in Xuchang City."
"Even others can help me raise horses!"
Dian Wei's mouth twitched and asked him to raise the horse. He really couldn't raise this horse as well as the groom.
Even Xi Lao takes better care of Jueying than he does on weekdays.
"Then sir, I can also look after your home and nursing home!" Dian Wei said again in a loud voice.
"Then I really want to say thank you for Xi Lao, but whether he will agree is another matter!"
…
For half a moment, Dian Wei racked his brains to think of what he could do next, but as soon as he said these words, Xi Yu retorted casually.
Even Dian Wei couldn't find the slightest excuse.
The conversation between the two people was listened to by all the people in the transport camp nearby.
The corners of Huang Zhong's mouth curled up slightly.
Although he is now over fifty years old, Huang Zhong still has the idea of ​​making a name for himself in this world.
He was a little lucky that he could meet Xi Yu at this time.
On the surface, the husband pretended to be angry with Dian Wei, but in fact, it was not because he cared about Dian Wei.
How lucky you are to meet such a lord in these troubled times!
It's a pity that Dian Wei is a straight-minded guy, but he still can't figure it out.
If Mr. Dianwei really gave up on him, why would he go all the way from Xuchang to Wancheng?
Why bother planning these things?
Huang Zhong's lips slowly grinned, and at this moment he raised his head and looked towards the sky.
The early spring air makes people feel a little happy. The buds emerging from the fields on both sides are trying their best to dig out from the soil.
Occasionally, a few birds would fly overhead and then fly quickly in a certain direction.
Everything.
It makes people feel a little immersed.
Dian Wei didn't know what to say at this moment, so he could only follow Xi Yu's Jueying, with a look of sadness on his face.
It is hard to imagine that such a tall and thick man could one day have his entire face covered with sadness.
Xiyu ignored Dianwei.
It's time to let this guy improve his memory, and the speed of Jueying's Kung Fu has slowed down a bit.
Slowly, Jueying was already riding side by side with another rider.
The figure riding a horse next to him is none other than Jia Xu.
From last night to now, Jia Xu has almost guessed the identity of the person in front of him from the surrounding situation.
The previous conversation between Dian Wei and Xi Yu made Jia Xu's guess even more firm.
At this moment, seeing Xi Yu suddenly approaching, Jia Xu's whole body couldn't help but tense up a little more.
However, when she saw the slight smile on Xi Yu's lips, Jia Xu felt relieved again.
"Mr. Wenhe, now it's time to guess who I am!"
Xiyu spoke calmly.
When Jia Xu heard this, he quickly loosened the reins and saluted Xi Yu with both hands.
"Under Cao Gong's command, there is no one in Xuchang who can predict the enemy's opportunities first and have such a perfect plan."
"Sir, it's time for the rumored drama Fengyi!"
"Jia Xu has met Da Sinong!"
Jia Xu responded, and while saluting, he spoke another sentence.
This greeting directly revealed Xi Yu's identity, and the latter was not surprised at all.
The title of Da Sinong made Xi Yu frown slightly.
Xi Yu couldn't help but think highly of Jia Xu, he was indeed a fox-like figure.
The other party bluntly stated his position in the Han Dynasty, but there were many hidden meanings in it.
Since they were soldiers of the imperial court, they would not be like bandits in the mountains. Jia Xu knew that he was no longer in any danger.
As long as he behaves honestly, Xiyu will not hurt him.
At this moment, Jia Xu was thinking exactly like this, and he felt a lot more relaxed.
Since the other party is Xi Yu, there is no danger at all in his trip to Xuchang. Jia Xu confirmed in his heart that this time he was more open-minded.
"I have long heard that Mr. Wenhe is a talented man. He is able to fight under Dong Zhuo with ease, and he can control Li Jue, Guo Si and others at will. I can't help but admire this ability."
Xi Yu praised him unabashedly.
When Jia Xu heard this, he quickly shrank back.
"Mr. Fengyi deserves to be praised. Xu does not have such great ability, and what he did was not a last resort!"
Jia Xu's posture was very low.
Seeing this situation, Xi Yu frowned slightly.
"I wonder what Mr. Wenhe's plans are after going to Xuchang this time?"
Xi Yu asked casually.
Hearing this, Jia Xu couldn't help but feel a twitch in his heart.
What plan? He couldn't help it now. What idea could he have? If he really had an idea, he wouldn't follow Xi Yu to Xuchang now.
"Xu has no idea about this trip. If Da Sinong has an assignment, Xu can do it..."
Jia Xu was about to say that if Xi Yu could arrange for him, he would choose to follow him.
Who should I follow in this world?
Xi Yu didn't feel anxious when he heard this.
He nodded towards Jia Xu.
Before the other party could finish his words, Xi Yu turned around and glanced at Huang Zhong who was not far away.
"Old Huang, Mr. Wenhe will be in charge of you later!"
"In the past few days, you also know how the supply camp is trained. Let Mr. Wenhe familiarize yourself with it. After going to Xuchang, let Mr. Wenhe live in the camp first!"
Xiyu spoke quickly.
Jia Xu next to him was completely stunned.
What baggage camp?
Does Xi Fengyi want to be a quartermaster?
He had done this kind of thing before, and Jia Xu had no objection to this arrangement.
But, what the hell is training?
What does it mean to make yourself familiar?
Jia Xu didn't understand, but Huang Zhong, who heard the voice, slowly lowered his horse speed and followed him.
"Don't worry, sir, Huang is quite familiar with the matters surrounding the transport camp!"
After saying that, Huang Zhong smiled at Jia Xu.
In the cracked gap at the corner of his mouth, a pair of yellow teeth dangled, making Jia Xu feel a little trance-like.
He didn't understand what was going on!
However, Jia Xu soon became clear.
At this time, Xi Yu ignored Jia Xu, and kept his own hands on the horse's belly, and hurried forward.
It was not until noon that Cao Ang and Cao Anmin on the wooden cart finally woke up.
After the two of them opened their sleepy eyelids, what they saw was a clear sky.
It wasn't until he came back to his senses that he noticed that the two of them were lying on the moving trolley.
"woke up!"
After the two of them woke up, Xi Yu slowly appeared beside them while riding Jueying.
When Cao Ang raised his eyes and saw that the person coming was Xi Yu, his eyes couldn't help but light up.
Cao Ang was naturally very familiar with Xi Yu.
He has heard of the other party's name many times over the years.
After returning to Xuchang, Cao Ang originally wanted to find an opportunity to visit Xi Yu, but it happened that Cao Cao was about to march westward, so Cao Ang did not have time to visit Xi Yu.
Seeing the other party appear here at this time, Cao Ang was a little confused.
But he felt somewhat relieved.
Mr. Fengyi can be here at this time, so my father should be fine.
"Zixiu has met sir!"
Cao Ang wanted to stand up and salute Xi Yu, but the latter shook his head, stretched out his hand and pressed down.
"Lie down and let someone give him some water. It's hard to talk!"
Xi Yu chuckled lightly, and the soldiers from the transport camp on the left and right quickly stepped forward and gave Cao Ang and Cao Anmin a few mouthfuls of the prepared water.
After the two of them drank water, Xi Yu spoke again.
"I know what you want to ask. You two don't need to worry about Wancheng anymore!"
"Sikong is fine!"
"If anything happens, I'm probably busy feeling sad at the moment!"
Xi Yu explained casually.
After hearing this, Cao Ang and the two looked somewhat confused.
But when I thought about it again, I seemed to understand a lot in a short time.
"Sir, have you never met your father?"
Cao Ang seemed to realize something, and his eyes widened a little at this moment.
"See what?"
"There's nothing wrong with him. Is there anything he needs to see?"
"but!"
Xi Yu paused, then looked at the two of them: "He probably doesn't know your current situation yet!"
"Let him repent and repent in his sorrow!"
Cao Ang was a little shocked!
Is the purpose of your husband not seeing his father actually to teach him a lesson?
This is sir?
Cao Ang's mood was unexpectedly complicated.
Logically speaking, since he is fine now, as a son of man, he should give his father some news.
Just thinking about it, the situation in Wancheng was partly caused by Cao Cao.
Cao Ang felt a little unhappy no matter what he said.
What the gentleman did was just what he wanted for no reason.
Cao Anmin beside him couldn't get a word in, and he didn't dare to say anything at this time!
The person in front of me is Xi Fengyi, who is not only the most powerful person in the world, but also his strategy.
Although Xi Yu is only a little older than them, in terms of status, the other party is the same generation as Cao Cao, and he and Cao Ang are a generation apart.
What's more, in terms of status, Cao Cao was Sikong of the Han Dynasty, but Xi Yu was also the censor of the Han Dynasty and the great minister of agriculture.
The status of the two is almost the same.
There he can speak at will.
The husband wants to teach his uncle a lesson. There is no way he can get involved in this matter.
At this moment, Dian Wei, who had been following Xi Yu, suddenly reacted to Xi Yu's words.
yes!
Neither Cao Cao nor Xu Chu knew that he was still alive!
When Dian Wei thought of this, he couldn't help but look at Xi Yu again.
What my husband meant just now was that he did not intend to inform Duke Cao and Xu Chu.
Just this.
"Sir, are you really not going to inform Duke Cao and Xu Chu?"
Dian Wei thought that since he was still alive at this time, he shouldn't let others worry.
"Hey, now you know how not to worry people?"
Xi Yu glanced at Dian Wei. As for informing Cao Cao and the others, he had not thought about it at the moment.
I have already made up my mind to teach Lao Cao a lesson.
What is the point of letting the other party know that Dian Wei and Cao Ang are alive now?
Ignoring Dian Wei, Xi Yu looked at Cao Ang and Cao Anmin on the bed.
"Okay, now that you two are awake, just lie down!"
"Even after returning to Xuchang, I think you two should stay in bed for a few more days!"
After saying something to the two of them, Xi Yu didn't speak again.
When Dian Wei heard what Xi Yu said, he didn't say anything more. Even now, his husband has not forgiven him!
As for Cao Cao and Xu Chu, forget about it!
Everyone continued on their way.
At this time, the sun was shining just right, and it was so warm that people wanted to squint and take a nap.
Cao Ang and Cao Anmin, who were both physically and mentally relaxed, looked at each other after hearing Xi Yu's words, and then lay down on the bed with peace of mind.
In the blink of an eye, the two fell asleep again.
In that way, if two pieces of white cloth were covered on the cart, it would look a bit like transporting a corpse.
…
When Xi Yu slowly led people towards Xuchang.
At the same time, outside Wancheng.
Cao Cao has ordered Cao Jun's corpse to be buried on the spot.
The three thousand guards have been buried on the green hills not far outside Wancheng.
Until this time, Cao Jun still could not find Cao Ang, Cao Anmin and Dian Wei.
And after the entire Wancheng was burned overnight, many of the corpses had turned into charcoal and could not be seen as human!
Cao Cao knew that perhaps Dian Wei had died in Wancheng.
But now, he doesn't even have a chance to take revenge.
Zhang Xiu led his men southward and wanted to pursue the enemy, so Cao Jun had to confront Liu Biao.
As for the battle in Wancheng, it will spread to all the princes in the world in a short time.
He, Cao Cao, didn't care about this little bit of fame.
However, the loss of his nephew and general in this battle was what made him most heartbroken.
"Ming Gong, for today's plan, this is not the time to be sad. Our army has been stagnant here for several days. Now Wancheng has been burned to the ground. Ming Gong should make a decision early!"
Xun You comforted him from the side.
Cao Cao came to his senses and looked at the green mountains in front of him again.
This battle was all his fault. If he had woken up early, it would not have caused today's disaster.
He took a deep breath, turned his head and glanced at Cheng Yu who was not far away.
"Zhongde, bring me the eulogy I just wrote!"
When the latter heard this, his face looked a little ugly.
But when he saw Cao Cao looking at him, Cheng Yu thought for a while and fumbled out a memorial from his body.
It is said to be a memorial, but it is actually a self-incriminating letter written by Cao Cao while the soldiers were burying the body just now!
"Read it!"
In front of all the soldiers, after waiting for Cheng Yu to come over, Cao Cao took a look and handed it back.
"Ming Gong!"
Cheng Yu looked a little embarrassed.
If this eulogy is read out, it may have an impact on Cao Cao's reputation.
Cheng Yu didn't want to speak, but Cao Cao looked straight at him.
In desperation, Cheng Yu could only speak slowly.
…
There is not much content in the entire eulogy. When Cheng Yu was chanting on the side, Cao Cao followed suit.
Throughout the entire article, Cao Cao took full responsibility for the outcome of the Battle of Wancheng.
At this moment, under the entire Qingshan Mountain, the morale of the 150,000-strong army was somewhat low due to this battle.
Cao Cao read the eulogy, but there was no sound underneath.
In the middle of reading the Tao, Xun You called out to Cao Cao.
"Ming Gong, please stop thinking about it!"
Immediately afterwards, all the generals in Cao's camp asked for their orders.
"How can the battle of Wancheng be the sole responsibility of Duke Ming?"
After all, if something like this happens, although Cao Cao is responsible, his subordinates are not responsible.
Cheng Yu also paused.
If he and Xun You could have persuaded Cao Cao earlier, such a result would not have occurred today.
Cao Cao laughed.
"Read it, how can you not read it!"
"The fault of this battle is all my fault!"
"But my mistake caused the corpses of many strong men to sink here, and their souls returned to the west."
"I, Cao Cao, will not read this article today. The heroes in front of me can summon their souls to the earth and sleep on the green mountains at night."
…
Chapter completed!
