Sanguo: Banzi Shengtian, you call him Yanque?

Chapter 62 Night attack on Dongting Lake!
  They had previously speculated that Daxian might be figures like Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan. After all, they were both famous, so maybe they really had such talents.

But the last time they came here, they were almost scared to death when they saw the Ten Deadly Sins, so they were sure that the great talents were not among those aristocratic families.

"Could it be someone from Cao's camp?" Cheng Yu smiled bitterly, "I really didn't know that there were hidden great sages in Cao's camp."

"Maybe he's not from a noble family at all, but a commoner." Jia Xu suddenly said.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then showed a look of understanding.

Yes, they habitually think that anyone who is a great sage must be famous and must come from a certain family, but they ignore that there may be great sages among ordinary people.

And this kind of great sage is more likely to be unknown before, with no talent and ambition, and unable to get ahead in the world of aristocratic families.

The more they thought about it, the more they thought it was possible, but they couldn't guess the identity of this great sage.

"Sir, you don't know. Now our army is rapidly building warships. The black water on the lake is spectacular in an instant. Walking on it is as spacious as walking on land!"

In the kitchen, Cao Cao boasted to Ye Fan.

Now Cao Cao is seizing the time to build battleships and prepare for a decisive battle with Jiangdong. Naturally, Cao Cao cannot relax on this matter. Today he went to inspect it in person and couldn't help but sigh.

They have many soldiers and generals, and the warships they build are very huge and magnificent. No matter how you look at them, they feel that they are much better than Jiangdong's warships.

"Sir, now our army is strong and strong, with millions of lions. Generals Cai Mao and Zhang Yun are working hard to train the navy, which is quite effective. Countless warships have been built."

"On the other hand, in Jiangdong, there are only more than 100,000 naval troops, and the numbers are high and low. The emperor and his ministers are not on the same page, and they will soon have to accept Liu Bei's hidden danger. I'm afraid it will be a headache."

"The dispatch of troops to Jiangdong this time will definitely be decided in a battle. Jiangdong will also become our army's territory by then!"

Cao Cao finished speaking in one breath, feeling very proud and wanting to show off when he said it.

But Ye Fan is Ye Fan. Every time Cao Cao is proud, he will pour cold water on Cao Cao, and this time is no exception.

"It seems that our army is indeed fully prepared, but what will happen if Zhou Yu makes a sneak attack and burns our warship?"

Cao Cao immediately frowned and subconsciously retorted: "This is impossible!"

"Although they are only building warships now, there were originally some. There are still large armies stationed on the shore, and the navy is also training here. If Zhou Yu really wants to burn down our warships, won't he throw himself into a trap?"

"And they should be busy picking up Liu Bei now. Why would they come to burn our warship? I'm afraid Zhou Yu has murderous intentions towards Liu Bei, and his attention is focused on Liu Bei."

"Also, Zhou Yu has been silent for such a long time. It seems that he has lost all confidence due to successive defeats at the hands of our army. Now he is probably frightened. He is afraid that our army will press the border. How can he still have the courage to burn me? Where are the warships?”

Ye Fan suddenly sneered: "You, you, I can't teach you no matter how hard I teach you."

"Although Zhou Yu has the intention to kill Liu Bei, Sun Quan will not agree. He is not as stupid as Yuan Shao, but has his own ideas. He understands that uniting Liu Bei is also more important to them in Jiangdong."

"At least, it can distract Prime Minister Cao, so Zhou Yu also knows this. He understands that he can't kill Liu Bei, but he doesn't have a good impression of Liu Bei, so he won't be too concerned about things like welcoming Liu Bei into Jiangdong."

"I'm afraid, he wishes that Cao Jun would just kill Liu Bei."

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes slightly and nodded solemnly.

Yes, even he once said that "having a son should be like Sun Zhongmou", which is enough to show the excellence of Sun Quan. He is not a mediocre person. Although his talents are not as good as those of Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang, he is still superior to others. at.

"Sir, let's not talk about Sun Quan and Zhou Yu. Please tell me why you expected Zhou Yu to come and burn our warships?" Ye Fan smiled: "Hey, it's still the same sentence, Zhou Yu wants to kill Liu Bei. No, but I don’t want to form an alliance with Liu Bei, so I can only think of other ways.”

"Now that they want to attack Cao Jun, they are naturally not qualified, but burning the warship may cause more damage to Prime Minister Cao!"

"Zhou Yu is arrogant and proud, but he will not get depressed because of one or two failures. He will only think about how to turn defeat into victory and let out a bad breath!"

He paused, drank a lot of wine, and his eyes became blurred.

"Building warships requires a huge amount of manpower and material resources. Most of them have been built now. If they are burned down, even Prime Minister Cao will not be able to build so many more in a short period of time. It will naturally be even more difficult to attack Jiangdong."

"At that time, the Prime Minister's side will not be able to cross the river, and Jiangdong will naturally no longer need the alliance. The alliance will be destroyed without attack, and Liu Bei will have no value!"

Cao Cao was suddenly shocked: "Zhou Yu is really insidious this time!"

He kept thinking about Mark's words in his heart, and his expression gradually became serious.

At night, Zhou Yu was in his tent.

Suddenly, a spy came to the big tent.

"Grand Governor, we have discovered the place where Cao Cao trained his navy and built his warships, which is on Dongting Lake!"

"And I've made inquiries along the way, and there aren't many Cao Jun guards at all."

Zhou Yu was immediately overjoyed and stood up excitedly.

It seemed like he was bargaining with Lu Su before, but in fact he was secretly inquiring about information. How could the dignified Koto Mishuro be willing to lose to Cao Cao?

"Quickly tell General Gan Ning to come see me!"

Soon, Gan Ning arrived at the big tent.

"Grand Governor!"

Zhou Yu stepped forward and patted Gan Ning on the shoulder: "General Gan, how are the things I asked you to prepare?"

Gan Ning patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Commander-in-Chief, I have already prepared it. Now dozens of Mengchong ships are ready, and there are also some empty ships used to carry firewood and ointment!"

Mengchong is a small boat, small in size, but it is more flexible and faster than larger warships.

Zhou Yu had already asked Gan Ning to do these things.

"Okay, now we have discovered the place where Cao Jun built the warship. It is on Dongting Lake. General Gan, the opportunity has come to make a contribution. If you succeed this time, you can avenge your shame!"

Gan Ning clasped his fists excitedly and said, "Grand Governor, don't worry and leave it to me, I will definitely do a good job!"

"Okay, I'm going to send you three thousand elite troops and let you lead them straight to Cao Jun's warship. Remember, don't be reluctant to fight. It is also the place where Cao Jun's navy trains. What you have to do is to burn Cao Jun's warship!"

"Once you succeed, you must retreat immediately. With General Gan's speed on the water, no one in Cao's army can catch up!"
