Chapter 715: Confronting Cao Cao

After saying a word, everyone was shocked!

"Ye...Ye Xiang... Are you General Ye Yuanqing, who is known as the number one archer under the command of today?"

Liu Bei was a little unbelievable and looked at the other party repeatedly. However, firstly, the sky was dark and he could not see clearly. Secondly, the last time he met Ye Xiang, he had followed Liu He to Luoyang after the previous alliance to challenge Dong. It has been four or five years since then, so Liu Bei was not sure.

Ye Xiang walked a few steps forward and signaled to Liu Bei and Tao Qian Baoquan: "I am here to come to Xuzhou for mediation under the order of Your Majesty. The journey is long and there are other things that need to be prepared, so I came a little later. I hope you will be more grateful."

Tao Qian was very surprised: "General of the Western Expedition is so polite. I... I never expected that Your Majesty would send you here. I am saved in Xuzhou..."

Everyone has heard of Ye Xiang's shooting skills. When Liu He was in Yanmen, Ye Xiang had his superb shooting skills and killed many Hu generals who were famous for riding and shooting. To this day, many generals from the Xianbei tribes such as Budugen still admired him very much.

He tried his best just now, and the arrow he shot was obviously much better than Xiahou Yuan and Taishi Ci. He was even stronger than the rumors. Tao Qian and others naturally had a hundred times more confidence in him.

Cao Cao exclaimed in his heart that something was wrong, but he was not panicked by how powerful he was.

"It turned out that the general of the Western Expedition was here. Cao was in a far-reaching manner and hoped to forgive him. I wonder what the general came to Xuzhou thousands of miles away?"

Ye Xiang Yuanyuan looked at him: "Is it just now that General Cao didn't hear what he said?"

Cao Cao smiled: "Cao naturally heard it, but was curious. This Tao Qian man was extremely guilty of killing his father. Although his father was stripped of his title by His Majesty, he was still an important official of the former court. He has never committed any sins and was killed by the old thief. Cao once wrote to the emperor and asked the emperor to take charge. Now the court would not punish the murderer severely for his father's death, but he came to save the old thief. Why is this?"

At first, he had a smile on his face, but as he said this, his face gradually became colder. In the last sentence, there was a hint of chill and murderous intent in his tone.

While speaking, he kept looking into the woods behind Ye Xiang, trying to find out how many soldiers there were in the woods, but the night was dark, and there was no other situation in the woods except for occasional abnormal movements.

Ye Xiang just smiled slightly after hearing his words.

"Your Majesty once said that General Tao Qian was loyal to the court and kind to the people. He was a rare kind and gentleman. He had no ambition and no courage to openly kill General Cao's father. There must be a misunderstanding. General Cao was not good at verifying it, so he used his weapons to attempt to kill the chief officials of the court. Is it because he had any bad intentions?"

Although Ye Xiang's tone was very plain and he didn't sound like a slight reproach, anyone with a discerning eye could see that this general of the Western Expedition came to Xuzhou this time, and His Majesty now clearly had a sense of criticism against Cao Cao.

Cao Cao frowned, always feeling something was wrong with Ye Xiang's calmness.

"Did the emperor find out something? It's impossible..."

However, despite his doubts in his heart, Cao Cao refused to admit defeat easily in such a momentum. He pretended to be angry and asked, "What does the general in the Western Expedition mean? Could it be that Cao would kill his life father and blame others for his purpose in planning his Xuzhou city? Our Han Dynasty has always regarded loyalty and filial piety as the foundation of establishing a country. What is the reason for the emperor to speculate on his ministers and to obstruct his ministers from being filial to his father? The Cao family has been loyal and savage for generations and loyal to the country. Although Cao did not dare to be disobedient, such humiliation would be unbearable. We must go to Luoyang to seek justice from the emperor!"

He spoke righteously, and after hearing this, Xiahou Yuan and others were all filled with righteous indignation.

A meaningful smile suddenly appeared on Ye Xiang's face.

"Oh? Is that true?"

His smile made Cao Cao, who was already suspicious, feel more and more shocked and suspicious at this moment.

Before he could reply, Cao De could no longer help it.

"General, don't bully people too much! Tao Qian will definitely die today. Not to mention you, even if the emperor Liu He came in person, he would not be able to stop me!"

“Bold!”

Ye Xiang, who looked very calm just now, suddenly became furious.

"Second brother, be careful!" Cao Cao exclaimed.

I saw a sharp arrow, like a black poisonous snake, suddenly emerged from the darkness.

"puff……"

The sharp arrow shot through Cao De's chest, took him out of the horse's back, and finally inserted it into a big tree not far behind him.

Cao De opened his eyes wide and looked down at the arrow feathers on his chest in disbelief. His head tilted, and he died of anger.

This sudden scene caused everyone to fall into a brief silence again, but Cao Cao and others reacted immediately.

"How dare you do this!"

Cao Cao watched his only brother hanging on a tree like this. His death was so cruel that he immediately became angry.

With Cao Cao's angry shout, the generals under his command and tens of thousands of soldiers all looked at Ye Xiang with murderous intent, as if he would throw him into pieces like a pack of wolves and sheep at any time and anywhere.

Seeing this, Ye Xiang did not show any weakness: "Cao De spoke rudely to the emperor and was disrespectful to the court, so he should be punished for his crime! Do you want to follow his footsteps?"

Not only did he not retreat, he approached step by step. After all, he represented the court. How could ordinary Cao army soldiers have the same ambition as Cao Cao? In their eyes, the court is the biggest in the world. How could he be hostile to the court?

Therefore, every time Ye Xiang took a step closer, Cao's army took a step back.

Xiahou Yuan said angrily: "What are you doing? He is just alone. Now that he has killed General Cao De, there is a huge reason, and he must do it today..."

"Miaocai, keep silent, don't be rude!"

Cao Cao almost gritted his teeth and shouted, which surprised Xiahou Yuan.

"Meng De, you..."

"Shut up!"

Xiahou Yuan saw Cao Cao's eyes raised and his fists tightly clenched, and he seemed extremely angry, but he seemed to be forcibly enduring.

Cao Cao stared at Ye Xiang: "A general in the Western Expedition, even if his brother was offended, it was just a temporary indifference. Our Cao family was loyal to the court, guarding the side, and had achieved meritorious achievements. The general killed his brother with just a few minor mistakes. Could this be the will of Your Majesty? If the general cannot give Cao an explanation, please forgive Cao for being rude today."

At this moment, he was filled with anger and threw away all the doubts about the possible "ambush" in the woods behind Ye Xiang.

Ye Xiang smiled and said, "I'm rude to me? So, do you want to kill important officials of the court without permission?"

Cao Cao said coldly: "Avenge your father and attack the real murderer is in accordance with etiquette and morality. Your Majesty prevents me from taking revenge, and traps the ministers for being unfilial, instructs the generals to kill their relatives afterwards. Cao must ask His Majesty for understanding this truth! Today, the general has a mortal hatred with Cao. Even if Cao kills you, it is the right place. Even if Your Majesty, you cannot blame me for this."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiahou Yuan and Cao Hong led a team of troops and slowly surrounded Ye Xiang's position.

Ye Xiang glanced at the two generals of Cao camp in a cold manner, and then said, "What a loyal one, and the other avenged his father. General Cao is really righteous. Oh no... I think you should be said to be hypocritical, right?"

"What are you talking nonsense! General Ye, you slander Cao again and again. Do you really think Cao dare not do anything to you?"

Cao Cao drew out the Yitian Sword and was about to give orders to ask Xiahou Yuan and Cao Hong to come forward to kill Ye Xiang.

"The guy must be suspicious of the soldiers behind this guy. The imperial brigade of troops came out of Luoyang. Even if he did not leave Yanzhou, he would detour to Qingzhou, Jizhou, and I would definitely not escape my ears and ears. This man bluffed. If he escaped, Dedi just said something and the court added fuel to the fire, he could take the opportunity to launch an army to attack me. Only by beheading him and Liu Bei and others, and then report to the court that he had never seen Ye Xiang and pushed this matter to the Taishan bandits, then everything would be fine."

Cao Cao pointed forward with the Heavenly Sword: "Take this person down and hand it over to His Majesty for disposal!"

"Kill!"

Xiahou Yuan and Cao Hong had already endured enough Ye Xiang, and as soon as he heard the order, he rushed up quickly.

"Hmph, the pearl of rice grains also shines brightly?" Ye Xiang watched coldly, raised the five-stone strong bow in his hand - the Broken Cloud Bow, and took the arrow for this strong bow.

Xiahou Yuan and Cao Hong had seen his shocking archery technique, and thought that once they met, they would be unavoidable, so they hurriedly dodged.

But Ye Xiang shot an arrow, but did not hit anyone.

Everyone suddenly heard a "crunch" sound, and looked in the sound, and it turned out that the big flag with the word "Cao" fell down.

The army was full of war, and the morale of the army was the battle. As soon as the flag fell, the morale of the Cao army suddenly dropped. Especially Ye Xiang's slashing technique once again surprised everyone.

Ye Xiang was not three hundred steps away from the flag, but also two hundred and sixty and seventy steps. At such a distance, Xiahou Yuan thought that the arrows he shot were hard to reach. Ye Xiang was not only able to shoot, but also had such a powerful force to cut off the flagpole. The strength of this shooting technique once again refreshed everyone's perception.

Although Cao Cao was three hundred steps away from Ye Xiang, it was logical that the bow and arrow would never be shot so far, but he still couldn't help but retreat backwards, and his forehead was filled with cold sweat.
