"Is the news reliable?"
Cao Cao narrowed his eyes…
"It's reliable. I've personally investigated it…"
Xiahou Yuan replied," Young Master Wei's judgment is accurate. Yuan's army's rations are all stored in Wuchao, but…"
"But what?"
"Recently, the Yuan army has dispatched a large number of armored soldiers to Wuchao. There are hidden sentries along the way. If they approach, they must have a secret code to clear the pass.”
"Otherwise, we will be discovered by Yuan Jun before we reach the nest!”
Secret code?
Xiahou Yuan's words were like a bucket of cold water.
It extinguished everyone's excitement…
"Secret code? How do we know Yuan Jun's secret code?”Cao Cao frowned…
Without a secret signal, they could not enter the crow's nest quietly.
If they were discovered by Yuan Zhou's main force and retreated first, all their efforts would be for naught.
Phew...
Cao Cao let out a long breath.
He kept chanting. "Secret code, secret code…"
But at this moment.
"Hahahaha…"
A burst of hearty laughter rang out from the main tent.
Everyone looked towards the source of the voice. Wasn't it Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao who were laughing?
At this moment of conflict?
What was he laughing about?
"Fengxiao... you're..."
Xun You asked…
" Haha…" Guo Jia was still laughing. As he laughed, he glanced at Wei Yu who was beside him.
"Everyone, since Young Master Wei Yu knew where Yuan Jun hid his rations, wasn't the secret signal along the way also within Young Master Wei Yu's calculations?”
"Everyone, think about it. What is the 'second happiness' that Young Master Wei mentioned just now?”
Err...
The second happiness?
Cao Cao rolled his eyes…
He remembered that…in Ye City, thousands of miles away, the family of Yuan Shao's strategist, Xu You, was arrested by Ye City's magistrate for committing crimes…
This…
The group of martial artists knocked their heads, still in a daze.
Cao Cao, Xun You, and Jia Xu suddenly realized…
He was just saying that Wei Yu's "second happiness" was ordinary, but it turned out that…the deeper meaning…was waiting for him here!
"Haha…"
"Hahaha…"
Cao Cao laughed out loud, and so did Xun You and Jia Xu.
They were all smart people…
How could he not know the connection between them?
The reason why Yuan Shao was able to expand step by step was because of the reputation of the four generations and three dukes, and the huge middle-level civil and military organization that he had gathered.
However, within this…
There were also two factions. One was the representative of Runan Suiying Gentry led by Guo Tu, Feng Ji, and Xu You.
The other group was the Jizhou talents led by Ju Shou, Tian Feng, and Shen Pei…
Yuan Shao was able to continue to expand because of the support of these two forces.
However, in reality, the two forces had long been at odds with each other on the issue of welcoming the emperor. They were even at loggerheads.
On the one hand, there was the talented person from Jizhou who was more capable but had only joined Yuan Camp for a short period of time.
On the other hand, it was the Ru Ying family who had ordinary abilities but had gone through thick and thin with Yuan Shao…
The two forces were like fire and water.
What's more, even Runan Suiying Gentry was attacking each other and pursuing their own interests.
Guo Tu and Feng Ji had long disliked Xu You.
This information was no longer a secret.
Wei Yu mentioned that Xu You's family was punished…
That was meaningful.
This was the attack of Jizhou's talents on Runan Suiying Gentry, and also the proof of Runan Gentry's internal attack…
Wasn't the spearhead pointed at Xu You?
Regardless of the success or failure of Guandu, Xu You would definitely die this time!
Under such circumstances, the only choice left for Xu You was to join Cao Cao!
One had to know that Cao Cao was Xu You's old classmate.
Thinking down this level…
With Xu You's position in the Yuan army, how could he not know the secret code along the way to guard Wuchao?
…
At this moment.
"Reporting to Sikong Cao."
A tiger armored soldier quickly barged into the tent…
"Outside the camp, our patrolling soldiers caught an enemy spy. This person called himself Xu You, saying that he was an old friend of Sikong Cao!”
Huo…Say Xu You, Xu You is here!
Cao Cao was overjoyed…
He looked back at Wei Yu.
He thought to himself, Good lad, you've been preparing for today's decisive battle at Guandu since half a year ago!”
"Hehe, you really hid it from your father!”
"It's all thanks to your father secretly sending people to support you…and a few uncles secretly listening to your arrangements! Hehe…you really didn't let down even a little bit of expectations!”
" Haha, you've made such detailed arrangements for each and every one of them. You're so meticulous, and your insight is amazing. I have to admit that even I can't compare to you in this aspect!”
With this thought in mind, Cao Cao patted Wei Yu's shoulder heavily.
"Alright…"
"Alright…"
With two consecutive words, Cao Cao rushed out of the village without hesitation.
Xu You was here…
He was going to welcome Xu You…
Of course, this was not the main point.
Xu You had mentioned the secret code to clear Wuchao, which Cao Cao had been eagerly waiting for.
"Big brother…"
"Big brother…"
Xiahou Dun, Cao Hong, and Cao Ren hurriedly shouted.
However, Cao Cao did not even turn his head back. He ran all the way…because he was too flustered, he even threw off his shoes.
"This…"
"Young Master Wei Yu? Military advisors, what's wrong with my big brother?”
Xiahou Dun, Cao Hong, and Cao Ren were still dumbfounded.
Guo Jia, Xun You, and Jia Xu looked at each other. Everyone's gaze shifted to Wei Yu's face.
Jia Xu said with a smile.
"Young Master Wei, it seems that the main credit for the victory at Guandu…is none other than you!”
"The younger generation is formidable, the younger generation is formidable…"
"The new waves push the previous waves! Haha…"
As Jia Xu spoke, Xun You and Guo Jia nodded.
Xiahou Dun and the rest were still confused like little chicks…They continued to ask…
Jia Xu and Guo Jia did not answer directly.
He only said…to order the soldiers!
The outcome of the Battle of Guandu would be decided tonight!
Instead, it was Wei Yu.
For a moment, he only cared about returning the greeting and did not have the time to explain.
Of course, the surprise attack on Wuchao had to be carried out in secret. It might not be a good thing if too many people knew about it!
Speaking of which, Wei Yu quite liked to chat with Jia Xu, Xun You, Guo Jia and the rest.
Everyone was smart. There was no need to say so much.
