Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 329 Battle of Chibi (1)

"That's it! Let me go back and clean up. The governor can send someone to build the Seven Star Altar first, and I will go to invite Dongfeng for the governor." Zhuge Liang laughed.

After all, this matter cannot be completed in a day or two. The time has not yet come. Even if Zhuge Liang ascends to the altar, he will not be able to do it. He cannot invite the east wind. Going there is just a show.

Zhuge Liang got up to say goodbye and left. After returning, he immediately called Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun was the one he met in a place when he refused to accept Li Song's invitation and fled Wollongong.So I invited him to have a chat with him all over the world.

He learned that Zhao Yun was one of Liu Bei's generals besides Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. When Liu Bei was killed, Zhao Yun was still in his hometown in Changshan.

The two chatted happily!Zhao Yun was deeply impressed by Zhuge Liang, and finally followed Zhuge Liang, won Zhuge Liang's trust, and finally formed the Cao Liu Avengers Alliance with Cao Ang and others to fight against Li Song together.

"Military teacher! What do you want me to tell you?" Zhao Yun clasped his fists and saluted after seeing Zhuge Liang.

"Zilong, I'm going to Nanping Mountain to pray to the heavens, borrow the southeast wind, and attack Li Song's camp in the north of the river with fire. There is one thing I need you to do." Zhuge Liang said.

Zhao Yun cupped his fists and asked, "I don't know what I need to do?"

"Prepare a fast boat and wait by the Yanziji River. After I do this, Zhou Yu will definitely attack me. At that time, I will come one step earlier to meet you." Zhuge Liang said.

"Promise!" Zhao Yun clasped his fists and saluted, and took the order to leave.

On the auspicious day of Jiazi on November [-]th, Zhuge Liang came to the Seven Stars Altar wearing Taoist robes, bare feet and disheveled hair after taking a bath and fasting.

Lu Su, who was waiting beside the Seven Star Altar, said, "Zijing, you can go back now and help Gongjin dispatch troops. If I, Zhuge Liang, pray to God and God doesn't respond, please don't blame me."

"Don't worry!" Lu Su bowed his hands, turned around and mounted his horse to go back to the army.

After Lu Su left, Zhuge Liang told the guards: "Don't leave your position without permission, don't whisper, don't talk nonsense, don't make a fuss! Anyone who disobeys the order will be executed!" Everyone took orders.

Kong Ming stepped up to the altar slowly, and the viewing position was set. He burned incense in the stove, poured water into the bowl, and muttered something in his mouth, praying to the heavens, and then went down to the altar to rest in the tent, and ordered the soldiers to eat in turn. Kong Ming went to the altar one day Three times, three times down the altar, but there is no southeast wind.

In addition, Zhou Yu invited Cheng Pu and Lu Su to serve in the tent, and when the southeast wind blows, he dispatched troops to fight, and at the same time sent someone to report to Sun Quan for his response.

Huang Gai has also prepared twenty fire boats, the bows of which are densely covered with big nails; the boats are loaded with reeds and dry firewood, filled with fish oil, covered with sulfur and flame nitrate, and covered with green cloth oil sheets; Plant the Qinglongya flag, and tie the boats at the stern: wait under the tent, just waiting for Zhou Yu's order.

Not only Zhou Yu and others are waiting for the east wind, but even Li Song, who is north of the Yangtze River, is also waiting for the east wind to blow, and then it will be the key to victory or defeat.

"Report! Report to the Prime Minister! All the secret operations lurking in our army have been cleaned up!" Shadow quietly came to the tent and reported to Li Songhui.

"Okay!" Li Song said, with a wave of his hand, the shadow retreated, coming and going without a trace.

If the secret work in the army is dealt with cleanly, it is tantamount to poking Jiang Zuo's eyes blind. The method of careful work to communicate with Jiang Zuo only needs to report Jiang Zuo's safety within a few days, so that Zhou Yu will not notice anything. .

When the east wind blows, Zhou Yu will definitely behead the Cai brothers to sacrifice the flag. Li Song intends to call them back, but he is worried that Zhou Yu and the others will find out that something is wrong and mess up his plan.

After thinking about it again and again, Li Song finally decided that for the sake of the world, he had to sacrifice these two people. As the saying goes, it is understandable to sacrifice one or two people for the sake of Wang Tu's hegemony.

Cai Zhongcai and you two can go at ease!The truth will remember your great achievements!You will definitely be buried in a grand manner, and your descendants will also receive great rewards because of you.

Li Song quietly looked up at the sky.

On November 22, in Bingyin, a southeast wind blew up above the Yangtze River. Zhou Yu was horrified, and immediately ordered someone to call Xu Sheng, the guard's school captain.

Zhou Yu said to Xu Sheng: "Zhuge Liang has the power to overwhelm the heavens and the earth, and the art of ghosts and gods is unpredictable! If he is kept, it will be a great harm to Soochow, and this person cannot be kept."

"Quickly lead hundreds of soldiers to the Seven Star Altar in Nanping Mountain. Don't say anything. Capture Zhuge Liang and behead him on the spot. Take his head and ask me for credit."

"Promise!" Xu Sheng clasped his fists and saluted, and took the order to go, order a hundred soldiers, and kill them at the Seven Star Altar in Nanping Mountain.

"Quickly summon all the generals to discuss matters in the big tent." After Xu Sheng left, he said to the soldiers around him.

Just as Zhou Yu was about to turn back the tent, the spies came to report: "Report to the governor, the lord's ship is anchored 85 miles away from our military camp, and we are only waiting for the governor's good news."

Zhou Yu waved away the spies and turned back to the camp. The generals who had been waiting for a long time hurriedly got up and saluted, "I have seen the governor."

Zhou Yu looked at the generals and began to arrange the battle plan. Zhou Yu said: "General Han, I order you to lead six thousand soldiers and horses, and under the banner of the Northern Army, go straight to Wulin, where Li Song's grain is stored, and set fire to burn his grain and grass. .”

"No!" Han Dang cupped his fists in a salute, and took the order to leave.

Zhou Yu looked at Taishi kindly and said, "Ziyi, if you trouble me, you can take five thousand elite soldiers and go straight to the border of Huangzhou to cut off Li Song's combined support and set fire to it. When you see the red flag, the lord will come to meet your troops."

"No!" Tai Shici clasped his fists in a salute, and left after accepting the order.

"Lu Meng, I order you to lead three thousand soldiers to Wulin to meet Han Dang every other day, and burn Li Song's gate."

"No!" Lu Meng came out, clasped his fists and saluted.

Zhou Yu went on to say: "Ding Feng, I ordered you to lead three thousand soldiers and horses, go straight to the boundary of Yiling, only to see the Wulin fire, and lead the troops to respond and seize the boundary."

"No!" Ding Feng stepped out immediately, clasped his fists and saluted.

Zhou Yu said: "Dong Xi, I order you to lead [-] soldiers, and go straight to Hanyang, from Hanchuan to kill Li Song. Pan Zhang, order you to lead [-] soldiers, and go to Hanyang to meet Dong Xi the next day."

"Promise!" Dong Xi and Pan Zhang rushed out of the line, clasped their fists and saluted.

"General Huang Gai, is the fire attack ready?" Zhou Yu asked Huang Gai, who was on the side.

"Report to the Governor, everything is ready, and we can act only after the Commander gives an order." Huang Gai clasped his fists and saluted.

"Okay! General Huang Gai, you immediately send a letter to Li Song to surrender tonight." Zhou Yu said.

"Pick up four warships and follow the Huang Gai boat. The first team is led by Cheng Pu, the second team is led by Zhou Tai, the third team is led by Jiang Qin, the fourth team is led by Chen Wu, and each of the four teams leads Three hundred warships."

"Obey!" Huang Gai and the commanders of the four naval divisions clasped their hands together and saluted.

Zhou Yu personally oversaw the battle on the big scorpion, leaving only Lu Su, Kan Ze, and all the counselors to guard the camp. Sun Quan sent a mission to arrive with a soldier amulet, and told Zhou Yu that he had sent Lu Xun as the vanguard to go straight to Qi and Huang to advance troops. Wu Hou responded by himself. .
