Three Kingdoms, I open a tavern in Xudu

To the sky, borrow the east wind?

Zhou Yu and Huang Gai looked at him strangely, thinking to themselves when did Zhuge Liang become so awesome that he could ask the heavens for help?

This is impossible!

"Kong Ming, are you serious?" Huang Gai asked in disbelief.

"How dare I deceive you two?"

Zhuge Liang said seriously: "Although Liang is not talented, he once met a strange person, taught the Qimen Dunjia Heavenly Book, and can call the wind and rain. If Zhou Dudu wants the southeast wind to blow, he can build a seven-star altar on Nanping Mountain, nine feet high and three floors. I promise Being able to borrow the southeast wind for three days and three nights can help Zhou Dudu use his troops."

Zhou Yu pondered for a moment, then asked solemnly: "Are you serious? If you can't take advantage of the wind and delay the big event, Kong Ming, you can't bear the responsibility."

Zhuge Liang responded with certainty: "That's right, for me, it's actually not difficult to borrow the southeast wind."

"I can't be sure when the southeast wind will come. If so, I believe in Kong Ming!"

Zhou Yu said resolutely: "Shoudao for three days and three nights, only one night of strong wind is needed, and great things can be accomplished. I will immediately order people to build the Seven Star Altar. I hope Kong Ming did not lie to us."

"of course not!"

Zhuge Liang also ordered: "This altar needs to be completed within five days, and five days later is a good opportunity."

He is also familiar with the situation in the Yangtze River waters, so he can judge that there must be a strong wind after five days, and it must be done before the southeast wind appears, to be effective.

"no problem!"

Zhou Yu nodded, his eyes fell on Huang Gai again, and he said, "Grand Fu, you prepare twenty boats, loaded with reeds and dry firewood, filled with kerosene, covered with sulfur and other fire starters, and inserted green dragon teeth in the bows. Banner, go see Cao Ang in five days and set fire to Wulin."

"it is good!"

Huang Gai nodded.

After the discussion between the three of them was completed, they each left.

Zhou Yu immediately found Lu Su, inspected Nanping Mountain, and planned to build the Seven Star Altar.

Huang Gai went back to find Kan Ze, told him the result of the discussion, and then wrote a letter to Kan Ze, asking him to cross the river to Wulin in two days to find Cao Ang. Everything was in their plan.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

Kan Ze once again pretended to be a fisherman and crossed the river by boat. Soon before he arrived at Caoying Water Village, he was stopped by soldiers and reported to the higher authorities. Finally, Cao Ang came out to greet him in person.

"Derun, I finally waited for you to come!" Cao Ang said expectantly.

Seeing Cao Ang's expression, Kan Ze was relieved, and at the same time he was smiling secretly. When the east wind blows, this place will turn into a sea of ​​flames.

"I'm late, please forgive me, my lord!"

Although Kan Ze was very disdainful in his heart, he still showed respect, bowed his hands, and said: "This is a letter from the lord to the lord, and the method for us to surrender is written on it. The lord, remember, I have to go back first, I can't Stay here for a long time, in case Zhou Yu finds out."

After delivering the letter to Cao Ang, Kan Ze got his consent and turned back across the river without stopping.

Cao Ang opened the letter and saw that it said that three nights later, a grain ship from the Sun family was going to Chibi. When Cao Ang saw the Qinglongya flag, he saw Huang Gai coming to surrender and he could let him go.

"Huang Gai's plan was guessed right by Zi'an again, it's almost exactly the same!" Cao Ang exclaimed.

After hesitating for a while, he decided to go back to find Chen Yang, and he had to make sure again and again that the plan at that time would not be wrong.

Besides, when Kan Ze came back from Wulin, he went to find Huang Gai and said, "I have delivered the letter. I also saw that Cao Jun's warships were all connected with iron hooks and covered with wooden boards. All you need is a fire, and you can easily Burn all the boats down, Mr. Feng Chu's clever plan has been accomplished."

Huang Gai was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly went to Zhou Yu again and told him about it.

Zhou Yu was supervising the construction of the Seven Stars Altar, and when he heard the news, he felt that the matter was stable, so he hurriedly asked people to speed up the construction, and waited for Zhuge Liang to sacrifice to the sky to borrow the wind.

"Zhuge Kongming, I only hope that you can really borrow the wind back."

Zhou Yu glanced at the Seven Star Altar, and then he summoned the generals back to prepare to arrange how to counterattack.

Five days passed in the blink of an eye.

On the fifth night, Zhuge Liang finally appeared near the Seven Star Altar.

"Kong Ming, how sure are you?" Zhou Yu finally asked.

"[-]% sure!"

Zhuge Liang said to himself: "Chou Dudu just make arrangements, and things will be done tonight."

"it is good!"

Zhou Yu said: "Leave this to Kong Ming, I have to go to the former army to oversee the army."

Zhuge Liang walked up to the Seven Star Altar pretendingly, and began to borrow the wind from his approach.

the other side.

Huang Gai and others had already made preparations. He brought twenty boats, all of which were inflammable materials. As long as the burning boats could collide with Cao Jun's serial boats, and there was a strong wind, the scene could be imagined to be spectacular.

"Gongfu, Runde, you must be careful when you go!" Zhou Yu said with cupped hands.

"If we can burn more than 20 troops of Cao Ang, even if we die, it will be worth it!" Huang Gai laughed.

"Gong Fu is right!" Kan Ze nodded.

Time gradually passed, night fell, the sky was clear, and the breeze did not move.

The generals of the Sun family who were waiting there were a little impatient.

"There hasn't been a wind for so long. I'm afraid Kong Ming will fail. How can he borrow the southeast wind in the middle of winter?" Zhou Yu was faintly worried.

"I don't think Kong Ming would say that without a reason. This gust of wind can blow." Lu Su trusted him very much.

So Zhou Yu ordered everyone to continue waiting.

Everything was ready, even Huang Gai set off to leave the camp, and there was no turning back when he opened his bow, even if he wanted to regret it now, it was too late.

Waiting until [-] o'clock in the middle of the night, suddenly there was a sound of wind, and the flags and flags turned.

Zhou Yu heard the wind, and hurried out of the camp to have a look, surprised and said: "The southeast wind, it is really the southeast wind, pass on my military order, prepare to attack!"

At the same time, he sighed with emotion that Zhuge Kongming really had the ability to overwhelm the heavens, the art of unpredictable ghosts and gods.

"I'm not as good as him!" Zhou Yu thought in his heart.

With Zhou Yu's order issued, the whole army is ready to go. Whether Jiangdong can be kept depends on this time.

When the army set off, Zhuge Liang left the Seven Star Altar and returned to Liu Bei's barracks.

"My lord, the east wind is blowing, we can do it too."

Zhuge Liang quickly asked: "Have we prepared the new soldiers and horses?"

"During this period, 3000 new recruits will be recruited, and they can start at any time!"

Liu Bei also said excitedly, he felt that he finally had a bright future.

After deciding to join forces with the Sun family, under Zhuge Liang's suggestion, Liu Bei played the banner of Uncle Liu Huang and recruited troops in the name of benevolence and righteousness.

I have to say that Uncle Liu's name is really useful. Many times, he only needs one sentence, which represents justice. This is why Liu Bei has always labeled himself as the clan of the Han Dynasty.

"Zilong can take three thousand soldiers and horses, cross the river and take the Wulin path, and lay an ambush in the dense trees and reeds. If Cao Ang fails, he must pass by this road. All he needs is a fire, even if he can't kill him, he can Kill another half."

Zhuge Liang continued: "Yide can also lead [-] soldiers across the river and lay an ambush at the mouth of Calabash Valley..."
