Chapter 135 Burning Chibi 3

Although fire attack is a good way to defeat the strong with the weak, Cao Cao's military and horses will not stand still, so that you can ignite fire everywhere!

Even if Huang Gai pretended to surrender and entered Cao Cao's water camp, if there was no help from the Southeast Wind, it would not be easy to ignite the fire in the camp where water was everywhere!

Therefore, Zhou Yu was afraid that Zhuge Liang would fail to "sacrifice the wind", so he arranged four teams of troops to respond. In fact, it was a bit of a tragic "both both the enemy died"!

Han Dang, the first team leader, Zhou Tai, the second team leader, Jiang Qin, the third team leader, and Chen Wu, the fourth team leader: each of the four teams led 300 warships, and each of the twenty fire ships was arranged in front of them.

If Huang Gai fails to set fire, these four teams are ready to attack at any cost and set fire to Cao Cao's water camp.

If the setting fire is successful, the four teams will add another fire and intercept the defeated soldiers around the water camp.

Zhou Yu and Cheng Pu supervised the battle on the Dazhe River. Xu Sheng and Ding Feng were the guards on the left and right, leaving only Lu Su and Kan Ze and many of his advisers to guard the village, which was said to have come out in full swing.

Sun Quan sent a mission to hold the military talisman and said that he had sent Lu Xun as the vanguard and went straight to Qi and Huang to advance, and the Marquis of Wu responded to the rear.

After Zhou Yu had finished allocating his troops, he was also uneasy. He didn't know if Huang Gai could successfully ignite Cao Cao's Water Village without the help of Southeast Feng.

As for the method of "destroying both enemies", even Zhou Yu was very reluctant to use it, and he could not bear the losses of thousands of elite soldiers!

Zhou Yu's plan this time was quite big. Before the decisive battle between Chibi began, he turned his attention to Jiangling. The six teams of troops sent were equivalent to surrounding Jiangling and becoming an isolated city.

Zhou Yu was restless in the tent and walked out. At nearly three o'clock in the morning, he suddenly heard the sound of wind outside and the flags turned. When Zhou Yu left the tent to see, the flag's feet floated northwest. In an instant, the southeast wind blew!

Zhou Yu said to Lu Su in shock: "Kong Ming has the method of seizing the creation of heaven and earth, and the technique of unpredictable ghosts and gods! If this person returns to Fankou, it will hinder us from conquering Jingzhou. Although we cannot kill allies easily, we cannot let him leave Jiangdong easily. Let's put him under house arrest first!"

Without waiting for Lu Su to answer, Zhou Yu urgently called Ding Feng, the guards' captain in front of the tent, and the two generals Xu Sheng said:

"You two bring one hundred people each. Xu Sheng went from the river, Ding Feng went from the dry road, and they all went to the Seven Star Altar of Nanping Mountain, and passed our military orders, asking Zhuge Liang to come to discuss matters. If you don't follow, you will take Zhuge Liang in the name of disobeying the general order, and behead him and come to ask for me."

The two generals took the order. Xu Sheng got off the boat, and one hundred knives, axes and hands swung the oars; Ding Feng got on the horse, and one hundred crossbowmen each rode their horses: coming to Nanping Mountain, the road was facing the southeast wind.

Ding Feng's horse army arrived first, and saw the soldiers holding flags on the altar and stood in the wind. Ding Feng took off his horse and raised his sword to the altar, but he couldn't find Kong Ming, so he asked the soldiers guarding the altar.

The sergeant on duty was very clever and hurriedly replied: "Mr. Zhuge has already left the altar and has time to have a meal."

Ding Feng hurriedly got off the altar and went to the tent to look for it. Xu Sheng's boat also came. The two gathered on the riverside and sent a horse to check it out.

A small patrolman on the riverside reported: "Last night, a fastboat stopped at the entrance of the beach, but I saw Kong Ming disembarking his hair and getting off the boat. The boat looked like it was coming into the water."

Ding Feng and Xu Sheng followed him in different directions.

Xu Shengjiao pulled up the sails and snatched the wind. Looking at the boat in front of him, Xu Sheng shouted loudly on the bow of the boat:

"Don't go! The governor is invited!"

Kong Ming stood at the stern of the boat and laughed: "Come on the top of the governor of Zhou, use the troops well, Zhuge Liang returns to Xiakou temporarily and meet again in the future."

Xu Sheng was anxious and shouted: "Please stop the ship for a moment. The governor has something important to tell you."

Kong Ming said, "I have already predicted that the governor of Zhou cannot let me rush back in time. I will come and stay forcibly. I will teach Zhao Zilong to come and meet each other in advance, so the general does not have to chase after him."

When Xu Sheng saw that the boat in front had no tent, he just rushed over. Seeing that it was approaching, Zhao Yun picked up a bow and arrow, stood at the stern and shouted:

"I am Zhao Zilong, Changshan! I am ordered to come and pick up the military advisor. How do you chase after me? I was supposed to shoot you to death with an arrow, and it seems that the two families are losing harmony. - Teach you how to know my methods!"

After saying that, arrows shot across Xu Sheng's boat rope. The tent fell into the water, and the boat was horizontal. Zhao Yun told him to pull up the sails on the boat and take the wind away. The boat was like flying, and it couldn't catch up.

Ding Feng on the shore saw clearly and quickly called Xu Sheng to row a boat near the shore and said to him: "Zhuge Liang's magical tricks are beyond his reach. Moreover, Zhao Yun has the courage to be inappropriate. Do you know when he was in Changban in Yang? We will only repay the truth."

So the two of them returned to see Zhou Yu, and to be honest, they said that Kongming had asked Zhao Yun to greet him in advance.

Zhou Yu's face became a little ugly. He was still worried just now that Zhuge Liang was really killed by his subordinates, causing the Sun-Liu alliance to break up, and that would be a big deal!

Even if you can steal more places in Jingzhou and counties at the moment, it may not be a blessing for Jiangdong! Because once Liu Bei fights to the death, turns to Cao Cao and jointly attack Jiangdong, it will be more than worth the loss!

Zhou Yu felt a bad feeling in his heart, so he said to Lu Su: "Kong Ming is so resourceful that we may not be able to get a bargain in the competition for Jiangling, Jingzhou!"

Lu Su knew Zhuge Liang much deeper than Zhou Yu, so he naturally knew that he was not easy to meet with him, so he casually said, "Let's wait until after defeating Cao, but then I will try it."

But Lu Su had already made up his mind. Since he couldn't play with Zhuge Liang, he would just be honest when dealing with him in the future. With his understanding of Zhuge Liang, he would be embarrassed to take too much advantage!

Liu Bei and the generals came to Xiakou and waited for Kong Ming to come back.

Not long after the southeast wind blew, the boat arrived with a sail. Kongming and Zilong landed on the shore.

Liu Bei was overjoyed and after greeting, Kong Ming said, "I have no time to talk about other matters yet. The former brought the letter to the military, horses and warships he had made, have they done all the appointments?"

Liu Bei replied, "I have packed up a long time ago, and I will wait for the military advisor to come back and call the division."

Kong Ming and Liu Bei and Liu Qi were promoted to the tent and began to allocate military horses.

Zhuge Liang was deploying troops and setting up a formation, and he still had a tacit understanding with Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu's focus was on the south, while Zhuge Liang's focus was on the north.

This was also Zhou Yu had made the best plan. Jiangdong handed over the defeated Cao Cao's soldiers who were seeking life in death to intercept him, and he left the convenience of capturing Jiangling to himself.

This is Zhou Yu's priority in using the alliance, and Zhuge Liang would not be able to bargain even if he wanted to bargain!

But this was exactly what Zhuge Liang wanted. He was not ready to fight Cao Cao at all, just pretending!

Because his strategic layout is not to dominate the world, but to stand up to the three-legged team. Of course, he doesn’t want Jiangdong to destroy Cao Cao at once, especially he doesn’t want Cao Cao to fall into Jiangdong’s hands!!

In that way, Jiangdong could coerce Cao Cao's side to deal with Liu Bei. Liu Bei would have to face the joint attack between Cao Cao and Jiangdong. With Liu Bei's current strength, it would be impossible to complete his strategic layout!

Therefore, how to maintain the delicate balance between the three parties is Zhuge Liang’s current strategic focus!
