Chapter 332: With help from experts, Xiahou Dun is elated

At this moment, a little soldier suddenly came to him, looking panicked.
Xiahou Dun asked: "What do you mean by being so flustered so early in the morning?"
The little soldier said that when they were patrolling just now, they found another note in the woods.
It was also written in the name of Xi Yu, saying that Xiahou Dun had done many evil things and he must be beheaded today.
He must be well prepared.
The little soldier trembled as he took out the note.
Seeing him like this, Xiahou Dun really wanted to kick him a few times.
After reading the handwriting on the note, he cursed loudly: "Xi Yu, how dare you provoke me like this. In this case, don't blame me for being rude to you."
The little soldier was trembling with fear.
"General Xiahou, do you have anything else to do?"
Seeing how cowardly he looked, Xiahou Dun kicked him out of the tent.
The little soldier let out a scream.
And Xiahou Dun asked the little soldier if he knew how many people were on Xi Yu's side?
"Back to General, we don't know. We just saw this note in the woods."
At that time, many young soldiers entered the woods.
When they saw this note, everyone wanted to come back and report it to Xiahou Dun.
However, no one dared to come to Xiahou Dun, so they jointly recommended this little soldier to come.
This little soldier also knew that he was in trouble.
"You are just some useless trash. You don't even know how many people there are on the other side. However, Youzhou has an army of 100,000. Plus my 100,000, these 200,000 troops will crush him to death. It's not like crushing Xiyu to death."
An ant?"
Even though he said this, he actually knew how powerful Xi Yu was.
But now that he is here, he must not let the soldiers lose their morale. He must cheer up others.
He glared at the little soldier again.
"Why don't you get out of here quickly?"
The little soldier was so frightened that he quickly left.
Xiahou Dun didn't take this note seriously at all.
After a while, another figure appeared at the entrance of the camp tent.
Xiahou Dun didn't even raise his head and scolded sharply: "Why are you so worried?"
However, no one answered him.
Xiahou Dun then raised his head and saw an old man wearing white clothes standing at the door.
He has a goatee, but his face is very smooth, and his eyes are bright and very big.
Xiahou Dun was stunned for a moment.
"Who are you? How did you come to me?"
"There were many soldiers lined up outside the camp just now, but I have knocked them all down."
The old man took out a fly whisk from his sleeve and shook it gently.
"That's how I knocked them down."
Xiahou Dun was surprised.
He hurriedly ran outside the camp, only to see that several soldiers had fallen to the ground.
The old man said: "But you don't have to be afraid. I just made them faint. I will never hurt their lives."
Xiahou Dun was very angry that someone dared to provoke him like this.
But in an instant, he changed his mind again.
This old man must be very capable, otherwise how could he let these soldiers fall to the ground silently?
He looked at the old man with very puzzled eyes, hoping that the other party could explain.
The old man said: "I want to see how you treat guests."
Xiahou Dun quickly laughed.
"Please come to the table, old man. I have many things to ask you."
The old man immediately sat down on a stool.
Xiahou Dun was going to make tea for him personally. He knew that this old man could not come to him for no reason. There must be something important.
Soon, strong tea was brought to the old man.
The old man introduced: "I live on a mountain in Youzhou, which is south from the direction, so you can just call me Nanshan old man."
Xiahou Dun smiled and said: "Then let's call him Old Man Nanshan."
"Call it whatever you want."
"I don't know why you are here, old man?"
"What an idiot. Of course I'm here to help you. How can you deal with Xi Yu with your own strength?"
Xiahou Dun was very angry again, but after thinking about it, his words made some sense.
If you get along with the elderly, you will really become more powerful.
"Please give me some advice, old man."
But Xiahou Dun was also thinking at the same time, why did this old man help him?
But the old man made a request and asked Xiahou Dun to follow him out so that he could show off his skills.
Although Xiahou Dun still had countless questions, he didn't ask any questions now and finally followed the old man out.
Many soldiers came from another camp. When they saw a strange old man coming here, they suddenly felt very strange.
Just when they were about to step forward to ask, Xiahou Dun waved his hand to them.
Keep them from coming to the front.
Although several soldiers felt very strange, they finally retreated.
When they came to a forest, the old man Nanshan pointed to a stone on the ground.
There was a chessboard carved on the stone, and there were a few small corn kernels on the chessboard.
"Did you see that? I was playing chess with others here just now."
Xiahou Dun nodded.
Still don't know what the old man meant.
All I saw was a slap on the old man's hair.
The corn kernels moved immediately, as if someone was washing vegetables quickly.
"Because I know a formation. As long as I help you, I guarantee that Xi Yu's army cannot attack. And I know that once Xi Yu arrives in Youzhou, Chang'an will attack the rear of the Western Region. Am I right?"
Xiahou Dun was surprised. How did the other party know about this plan?
Could it be that this old man was also present during the meeting at Cao Pi's place or was it someone who leaked the secret?
Old Nanshan looked at him like this and sneered.
"Don't look at me like that, there are a lot of things I know."
At this moment, Xiahou Dun was completely convinced, so he quickly knelt down.
"I turned out to be a man of God. In that case, please give me a helping hand, wife."
"Okay, get up. I know you must be thinking, why should I help you? Naturally, I can't afford to help you early. As for the reason, you will know it later. Now that you regard me as your strategist, I will definitely
I will help you destroy Xi Yu."
Xiahou Dun was very excited, and suddenly he saw the old man flicking the dust.
Many leaves were swaying.
"When the time comes, the soldiers on Xiyu's side will slowly droop down like these leaves. Do you understand?"
He put away the whisk, and all the leaves on the tree drooped down, looking dejected, and slowly fell to the ground.
Xiahou Dun completely saw what the old man was capable of.
"Old man, thank you very much. Thank you for helping me."
He thought that if he destroyed Xi Yu's army, or even killed Xi Yu, wouldn't he be able to make himself more famous?
Then to Cao Pi, he was a great hero.
If this obstacle is cleared, it will be more helpful for Cao Pi to unify the world in the future.
A grand blueprint seemed to appear in his mind.
At this time, his IQ seemed to be getting lower and lower, and he even thought that this old man would definitely win.
Old Nanshan touched the beard on his chin and said: "Okay, get up quickly. I have seen how loyal you are."
If Cao Pi had said this, Xiahou Dun might have been very pleased.
But saying it from such an old man's mouth still made him feel a little uncomfortable.
But now that people are so capable, I have to be humble.
After a while, Xiahou Dun led Old Nanshan into the camp, called out several important soldiers, and introduced Old Nanshan's identity and abilities to them.
"So now we don't have to be afraid of the drama at all. With the help of the old man from Nanshan, it is really even more powerful."
However, several generals didn't know what the old man Nanshan was capable of. They thought Xiahou Dun had just found an old man here.
Therefore, they had some disrespect for the old man Nanshan. Although they were praising him on the surface, they were obviously dissatisfied in their hearts.
Xiahou Dun was very angry.
"How's it going? Aren't you all convinced?"
He hoped that the old man Nanshan would show his skills to everyone again.
But the old man Nanshan didn't pay attention at all, but glanced at the surrounding generals with cold eyes.
Let everyone feel like a light is on their backs.
But now, Xi Yu has led the team and is about to enter the territory of Youzhou.
Suddenly a secret guard appeared in front of Xi Yu.
Coming without being summoned proves that there is something important.
"Tell me, what's going on?"
"Back to my lord, an old man went to see Xiahou Dun."
The secret guard told the story of the meeting between Xiahou Dun and the old man Nanshan, and focused on what happened in the woods.
"Although I don't know who that old man is, I think he knows magic, so we have to be on guard against him."
Xi Yu was surprised. He didn't expect that when the two armies were marching to fight, people from the Jianghu would actually help them.
That being said, things are still a bit tricky.
"Then why did the old man help Xiahou Dun?"
"My lord, forgive me, this... villain has not been found out."
"Okay, please step back first."
After the secret guard left, Xi Yu said to postpone the action first and think about countermeasures.
I also hope that the secret guards will bring back other information, such as knowing where the old man Nanshan's lair is, who can deal with him, etc.
But at the same time, he told the soldiers that he was not a coward, because he did not want any soldiers to be injured.
"My people and my soldiers are my brothers and sisters. You must not lose a hair."
Many soldiers were particularly moved after hearing this.
"Let's enter the camp now. Please be patient."
Everyone then rushed in the opposite direction.
At this moment, in a deep house compound in Youzhou City.
An old man in his fifties with a Chinese character face was sitting under the grape trees in the yard, fanning himself.
A short man in Tsing Yi arrived.
"Sir, we have already investigated clearly, Credibility is about to attack Youzhou."
"Uncle Forbes, is this news accurate?"
"It's absolutely true. It is said that Xiahou Dun hurt the people of the theater during his march. So..."
The old man nodded.
He understood that Xiyu himself wanted to attack Youzhou.
This time I just got a reason.
Fu Bo also talked about other things he was investigating, and the old man waved his hand and asked him to go back to the room temporarily.
After Forbes left, the old man had a smile on his face.
His name is Ouyang Fu.
He is a famous wealthy businessman in Youzhou.
He was in the silk business, and it is said that his former name was Ouyang Pei.
But he thinks that "pei" sounds bad and has the same sound as "compensation".
So I later listened to a fortune teller and changed my name to Ouyang Fu. From then on, I really became rich.
Thinking of the information he got today, he could no longer sit still, stood up immediately, and headed east.
He came to a crescent-shaped arch.
I saw a small bamboo forest and heard the sound of playing the pipa.
Needless to say, my precious daughter Ouyang Linlin is playing.
As he walked inside, a maid happened to go out and blessed him.
"Hello, sir."
"Hurry up and inform the lady that I am coming."
The maid immediately headed towards Ouyang Linlin's room.
Soon, the sound of the pipa disappeared.
It seems that the girl is talking to Ouyang Linlin.
After a while, the guy ran over and said with a smile: "Master, the lady has received the news, you can just go in."
Ouyang Fu nodded and came to Ouyang Linlin's room with his hands behind his back.
I saw my daughter in a long dress with a gold walking stick on her head.
"Dad, if anything happens, you can just call me my daughter. How come you come to see my daughter in person?"
Ouyang Fu had a smile on his face.
"Daughter, something good has happened."
Ouyang Linlin felt confused and asked her father to sit down quickly.
At the same time, all the servants were asked to leave.
"Dad, what's good?"
"The actor is about to enter Youzhou, so Youzhou will not be preserved and will definitely become the actor's territory."
"Dad, you also know that I am not interested in or understand these big things. I don't know why dad is telling me these things."
Ouyang Fu sighed.
"Daughter, I mentioned the drama to you last time, but it seems you didn't take it to heart at all."
Ouyang Linlin thought about it, and once at the wine table, her father seemed to have mentioned such a person.
Anyway, dad seems to have a special admiration for this person.
She was just perfunctory at the time and had already forgotten about the matter.
"Dad, I have some impressions."
But she still didn't understand what her father was talking about.
Whether the actor is here or not, what does it have to do with her being a little girl?
"Dad hopes that you can marry the actor. From now on, we will be able to prosper."
"Dad, what are you talking about? I don't know you at all." Ouyang Linlin objected eagerly.
It turns out that in Ouyang Linlin's heart, she already has someone she likes.
Her thoughts are particularly avant-garde, and she is very opposed to arranged marriages by her parents, matchmakers, and the like.
"Daughter, don't be excited. Let me tell you the truth. Even if we want to marry an actor, others may not like us."
"Huh, I'm not willing to marry yet. So what if he has a noble status? Could it be that he still takes advantage of her?"
In fact, Ouyang Fu was also gambling. He hoped that his daughter would marry an actor and his family would be a shining star.
But he knew this possibility was very small.
Apart from her appearance, her daughter seems to have no other advantages.
He even wanted to donate a lot of money to Xi Yu and then ask him to reward the soldiers.
It can be regarded as funding for soldiers. After all, soldiers work very hard in war. If you contribute military expenses yourself, you can also make great achievements.
But he knew that Xi Yu was as wealthy as his country, and people might not be able to appreciate what he had now.
So he also believed that his idea was just a fantasy, but his daughter didn't understand his thoughts at all.
I tried my best to curry favor with Xiyu, but in the eyes of my daughter, she was dismissive.
"Daughter, you have to understand that although our family is very rich, the status of businessmen is very low. I have dreamed of being like a scholar-official since I was a child."
Ou Jiafu sighed.
He had indeed fantasized about this when he was young, but later he broke with the clan for various reasons and was attacked by the clan.
By chance, he got into business and learned the business experience from an expert. In the end, the patient became extremely wealthy.
In the first few years, because I was extremely wealthy, I lived a life of extravagance and debauchery.
He just wanted to anesthetize himself so that he wouldn't fall down if he hit himself with his clan.
This was his lifelong pain, and he once told Ouyang Linlin when he was drunk.
Ouyang Linlin also understands what her father means, but how can he sacrifice his love?
"Daughter, I hope you can think about it carefully. Besides, this is just my wishful thinking. Even if we give it to you for free, the actor may not be willing. You know, there is no shortage of beauties around him."
When Ouyang Linlin wanted to say something else, Ouyang Fu said coldly: "I know you just like Lu Xiaochuan, don't you? Let me tell you, he is not a good person."
Ouyang Linlin was surprised. How did her father know that she liked Lu Xiaochuan?
Could it be that the maid next to him tipped off the secret to his father?
Her face turned red with anger, and when she was about to make a judgment, Ouyang Fu said: "Don't worry about how I knew it. I also have evidence to prove to you that Lu Xiaochuan is not a good person."
Ouyang Fu rolled his sleeves and said, let her think carefully. If she finds that Lu Xiaochuan is not a good person, she must marry Xi Yu and then leave.
Ouyang Linlin stamped her feet angrily. The person in front of her was her father, and it was hard for her to argue.
But even if Lu Xiaochuan is not a good guy, why would he marry Xi Yu?
My father's logic is simply ridiculous.
On the other side, Xi Yu returned to the camp and advised everyone not to worry.
It's just a few days later to get Xiahoudun's head. They will definitely find a way.
Everyone must relax and do whatever you want. Anyway, it is to avoid greater losses, not to fear Xiahou Dun.
In Youzhou, Xiahou Dun still treated Old Nanshan as a guest, which aroused dissatisfaction among many participants.
