Return to the Three Kingdoms with the Empire System

Chapter 226 Koji's Will to Die
After Ye Mo taught Qu Yi how to dig foxholes, he arranged for the Xian Deng camp to sneak around the bank of the Yellow River that night, and then used the sheepskin rafts that Xu Rong had prepared before to transport the Xian Deng camp in batches behind the Xiliang army. .

The first camp troops gathered on the bank of the Yellow River. Ye Mo stood in front of Qu Yi and said, "It's almost time now. Qu Yi needs to be careful during this trip. If nothing can be done, just light three beacons and retreat directly." "Things have come to an end. After thinking about it for a while, Ye Mo still said this to Qu Yi.

Ye Mo knew very well that if Qu Yi really retreated at this time, then Cao Xing would definitely have a estrangement from him, and even the entire Lu family's generals would have a estrangement from Ye's family.However, Ye Mo still said it.Ye Mo couldn't just watch Qu Yi and the soldiers who boarded the camp first go to die.It is not Ye Mo's style to do something knowingly.

Ye Mo had also swam "knowing what can't be done" many times before, but after careful consideration, Ye Mo never completely put himself to death every time.Even when he attacked Dong Zhuo's allied forces in Tunliang Valley before, Ye Mo brought all his elites. After entering Shangu, he first managed to kill high-ranking officials and capture Zhu Ling, so that the five thousand Yuan Shaojun didn't understand what happened After the matter, the matter was resolved.

After hearing Ye Mo's words, Qu Yi frowned imperceptibly.Qu Yi understands why Ye Mo said that, but Qu Yi knows more about the consequences if they abandon this plan.Besides, Qu Yi is a man of temperament, otherwise he would not have ended up being killed by Yuan Shao in his previous life.

"Yes, my lord. If something can't be done, the subordinates will definitely bring people back immediately." Although Qu Yi didn't think so in his heart, he still answered verbally, saying it without even thinking about it.At this time, Qu Yi had made up his mind to die. If he was discovered by the Xiliang army, he would immediately rush to kill them. With the combat power of going to the camp first, he would surely be able to kill more Xiliang troops. Ye Mo's plan created even one more chance of winning.

Ye Mo looked at Qu Yi's appearance, and knew that Qu Yi would definitely not do what he said, but there was no way, Ye Mo couldn't stop Qu Yi from taking people out right now.Ye Mo stopped talking and just waved at Qu Yi.

After Qu Yi received Ye Mo's order, he asked the soldiers who had climbed the camp first to take the helm, and transported the soldiers to the back of the Xiliang army in batches.It's just that it is night after all, and the yellow water is turbulent, so it is very difficult to go against the current.The first batch of soldiers were stroked, and more than 20 people fell into the yellow water, and they didn't know where they were rushed.

However, the first batch of soldiers still overcame many difficulties. It is estimated that after reaching the back of the Xiliang army, except for the soldiers at the helm who went back to pick up the others, the rest would go ashore to dig foxholes.These soldiers not only have to dig the foxholes they hide in, but also prepare for the soldiers behind.

There was no way around that, as those sheepskin rafts took about an hour to go back and forth, and the soldiers who arrived at the end didn't have any time to prepare the foxholes.There were more than 2000 soldiers who boarded the camp first. Counting [-] rafts, each raft can hold four people, so only a hundred people can be transported each time, because there is still one person who needs to take the raft back.Moreover, many rafts will be damaged every time they are transported. If this happens, at least three batches of soldiers will need to be transported.

The first two times were two hours, and the last time excluding the time to bring the raft back, it would have taken almost half an hour. Calculated in this way, the last soldiers could be transported to the back of the Xiliang army around dawn.If you wait for the last batch of soldiers to dig the foxhole by themselves, it will be a real hole.

Although Ye Mo had put in a lot of hard work before, accidents were inevitable.Ye Mo saw with his own eyes that every batch of soldiers who boarded the camp first left. Similarly, he also saw many soldiers being washed away by the yellow water.However, because the yellow water was too fast, even Ye Mo was extremely anxious and had no choice but to take them to the bank of the yellow water as soon as possible.

"Young master, General Qu Yi and the others have already left, let's go back too, you have been standing all night." After the sky was completely bright, Ye San looked at Ye Mo and said.

After hearing Ye San's words, Ye Mo also realized that it was broad daylight, and his eyebrows were covered with dew. "Well, there is no beacon, they should be fine, let's go back too!" Ye Mo patted his body with both hands, and then responded to that.

It's just that when the two turned around, Ye Mo seemed to see something out of the corner of his eyes. He turned his head quickly and fixed his gaze on the upstream direction of the yellow water.From the upper reaches of the Yellow River, sheepskin rafts kept coming into Ye Mo's sight.

Ye Mo was completely dumbfounded. Could it be that the plan has been leaked, and something happened to Qu Yi and the others?Ye Mo didn't dare to imagine.Seeing the continuous rafts floating down from the upper reaches of the yellow water, Ye Mo felt like he was going crazy, and rushed into the yellow water in a hurry.

Seeing Ye Mo like this, Ye San also jumped into the yellow water to help Ye Mo get those rafts to his side.Every time Ye Mo looked at those rafts, he just glanced at them, then threw the rafts away and let them float away.Ye San didn't know what Ye Mo wanted to do, but Ye San knew that Ye Mo must have his own reasons.

After Ye Mo watched all the sheepskin rafts floating down, he breathed a sigh of relief.After Ye San saw that Ye Mo was no longer as nervous as before, he quickly dragged Ye Mo ashore.When they reached the shore, Ye Mo sneezed involuntarily when the wind blew him.

"Let's go, let's go back." Ye Mo glanced at Ye San and found that Ye San was also trembling, so he said.

"Master, what were you doing just now?" Ye San asked Ye Mo as he was walking.Ye San was very puzzled why Ye Mo behaved like that when he saw those rafts.

Ye Mo rubbed his nose, sucked back the snot that was about to flow back into his nasal cavity, and replied in a thick nasal voice: "I thought Qu Yi and the others were ambushed just now, but when I saw those sheepskin rafts just now , I found that there was no blood on the rafts, so I know they are all right now. Alas, it’s just that Qu Yi blocked the only escape route for himself.”

Ye San didn't know what to say after hearing Ye Mo's words.If Qu Yi had released all these rafts, he would have put the army in a desperate situation.Ye Mo looked to see if there were bloodstains on those rafts, out of concern for Qu Yi and the others.

However, Ye Mo can check it from the shore. After all, there are no human beings on those rafts, so the speed of those rafts is not fast.But it was precisely because those rafts were not drifting fast that Ye Mo and the two spent longer in the water.Ye Mo is such a smart person, but he did such a stupid thing at this time, which frightened Ye San. It can only be said that if he cares, he will be chaotic.That's right, what else can Ye San say about this kind of thing?
When they returned to Hangu Pass, the soldiers guarding the pass saw two sneezing and wet people approaching. They thought they were the people nearby, so they shouted at Ye Mo and the two of them: "The front is the The pass is an important place, and people who have nothing to do with it leave as quickly as possible."

Ye Mo just wanted to reply, but sneezed again.Seeing Ye Mo like this, Ye San didn't care about the warning voices of the soldiers who closed the gate, and directly supported Ye Mo to walk towards the gate.

When the soldier saw that the two people did not listen to him, he became furious. But just when the soldier was about to draw his bow and arrow, a soldier next to him spoke. "I seem to have seen the clothes of those two people before."

Hearing what the soldier said, the soldier who asked the question immediately lowered his bow and arrow a little.When the two of them got close to Zhe, the soldier holding the bow and arrow immediately barked like a cat whose tail had been guessed: "It's Mr. Taiwei."

After hearing what the soldier said, the soldiers on the wall also saw that Ye Mo looked more and more like their captain.Now, everyone hurriedly ran to the closed wall and opened the closed door wide, then stood respectfully on both sides of the closed door, waiting for Ye Mo's arrival.

When Ye Mo and Ye San passed by, the soldier who yelled at Ye Mo first stopped quickly, hoping to get Ye Mo's forgiveness.

"Get up, Ah Qi, you're doing the right thing, Ah Qi. Forget it, I'll go back first." Ye Mo looked at that person, and wanted to say something, but he sneezed twice. Forget it, it's better to go back and change clothes first, if you really catch a cold, it's not good.

Watching Ye Mo and Ye San leave, the soldiers guarding the pass chatted immediately. "Tell me, where did Master Taiwei go last night? Why did you come back so early in the morning, still wet?" One of them looked at the others and said while rubbing his head.

"You don't know that!" A soldier who is usually quite clever stood up at this time and said something while looking at the others.After seeing all the people looking at him with great expectation, the man then said: "I heard that many high-ranking officials have the habit of Longyang. The Taiwei is not married yet. , and I have never seen Mr. Taiwei in such a hurry at this time. Maybe, Mr. Taiwei..." At this point, the man stopped talking and just looked at the people around him with a "you know" look. .

"Oh!" Everyone suddenly realized at this time, it turned out that Lord Taiwei still has this habit.

"What are you talking about, why don't you hurry back and be on duty!" At this time, a loud shout came to everyone's ears.Everyone turned their heads and found that it was Sun Ce who had brought some soldiers to patrol.

It turned out that Sun Ce was free, so Dian Wei asked Sun Ce to take some two-handed swordsmen to patrol the defense of Hangu Pass several times a day, and while supervising the soldiers, he also learned how to form troops.This defense is a skill.

When the soldiers saw someone patrolling, they dispersed and went back to their posts.After those soldiers had left, Sun Ce was muttering: "Brother, does he really have a habit of Longyang? No, stay away from him in the future." Having made up his mind, Sun Ce took these two-handed swordsmen with him again. Went to visit other places.
