The two teams returned to the camp separately to make pre-war preparations, Sima Yi was excited, he had not met such an opponent for a long time. And Zhuge Liang sighed that Sima Yi and his own ability is actually only between the two of them, and the other party is just one step less this time, and I don't know if it will be so smooth next time.

Zhou Gongjin returned to the camp tent, and according to Zhuge Liang's requirements, he rushed to make 500 boats overnight and set up more than 1,000 straw men, until it was delivered to Zhuge Liang, five days had passed.

The war ahead is tight, the two sides are constantly rubbing, although there is no real war yet, but they are already in the stage of imminent outbreak.

Late that night, Zhuge Liang recalculated many times and got the same result, so he ordered Gan Ning, with a thousand people, to get on the boat to get arrows.

Zhou Gongjin and Zhuge Liang stood on the shore, and below them was a fleet of thousands of people, only listening to Zhuge Liang's arrangement: "You have a small boat for every two of you, and the boat only needs to travel within the range of Cao Jun, not too close, before setting off, fill all the buckets on the bow of your boat with river water." ”

When everyone heard the news of starting work and filling it with water, Zhuge Liang said again: "Then you put the lower branch of the straw man, install a wooden plank, put the straw man on the back of the boat and drag it on the way, and after collecting all the arrows, then stand the straw man on the water, and you can support the boat to return." ”

Hearing this, Zhou Gongjin understood, Zhuge Liang was looking for Cao Jun to borrow arrows, but would it really go so smoothly?

Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "Brother Zhou, don't worry, I thought I had calculated, there will be mist on the lake today, and the other party will definitely not be able to see it clearly if it is only docked within the range, the best way is to attack from a distance, but Sima Yi is quite scheming, and he will definitely not attack with ordinary arrows, and he will definitely change to rockets, so I asked them to bring buckets in case of emergency." ”

When Zhou Gongjin heard this, he secretly picked his big finger and said in his heart, "Sure enough, it is a good plan, and even the other party's heart is clear, it seems that the previous temptation is also within his plan." ”

After the arrangements were completed, everyone boarded the ship and sailed to Cao Ying.

On the side of Lu Guo's Cao Ying, Sima Yi was reporting to Cao Mengde in the tent: "Lord of the country, there are still more than 2,000 warships that will arrive tomorrow, and then they can launch an attack on the combined forces of Sun and Liu." ”

Cao Mengde smiled and asked, "Master Sima, can you be sure this time?"

Sima Yi replied: "Lord of the country, if you asked Weichen a few days ago, you might still be ten percent sure, but now Weichen is only fifty percent sure. ”

Cao Mengde asked, "Why did the military advisor say this?"

Sima Yi laughed at himself: "The lord of the country still remembers that a few days ago, Weichen took General Xu to explore the way, and that time he almost went and didn't return. ”

Cao Mengde stroked his beard and asked, "But is there a master on the other side?"

Sima Yi bowed his head and said: "The other party has a capable person, and arithmetic and Wechen are between the best, so Wechen is not too sure this time." ”

Cao Mengde continued to ask: "Then the military division has a good plan. ”

Sima Yi remembered what Zhuge Liang had said to him before, and said to Cao Mengde: "The lord of the country, Weichen dares to ask the lord of the country to bring half of his troops back to the court, just in case of accidents. ”

Cao Mengde fell into deep thought, and said after half a sound: "Military advisor, lonely ** you, I will bring half of the troops back to the court, then this red cliff may be taken?"

Sima Yi said: "Fifty percent is sure to take Chibi, but the lord of the country will return to the dynasty and let General Xiahou lead the troops to defend the west of the Dragon Kingdom." ”

Cao Mengde slapped his palm on the table, got up and said, "Sima Junshi, I hope that King Gu did not believe you wrong." ”

Sima Yi bowed his head and withdrew from the camp, and as soon as he walked out, he heard the herald report from him: "Report to the military division, and find the enemy ship within a hundred zhang in front of the army." ”

Sima Yi asked, "But the army?"

The herald replied: "It's not a big army, the enemy is all small boats, and there is fog on the water, so we can't see clearly." ”

Sima Yi lowered his head and pondered for a while and said, "Let the archers prepare and attack from a distance." ”

The herald was just about to get up, when Sima Yi suddenly said, "Wait a minute, let all the archers prepare fire oil and attack with fire." ”

The herald was ordered to get up and go to give the order.

Sima Yi's heart began to be troubled again at this time, thinking to himself, "This can't be the plan of the man in white, right? But what is the motive for sending a small boat here?"

On the front line, according to Sima Yi's instructions, all the archers switched to rockets and shot towards the shadow of the opponent's ship, and thousands of arrows had already been shot in half a bang.

Gan Ning took a thousand soldiers here, collected the rockets in an orderly manner, and after getting the arrows from the boat or in the water, they all put them in the bucket at the bow of the boat, and the attack on both sides continued.

When Sima Yi arrived at the front line, the archers had already fired tens of thousands of arrows, but they didn't see the shadow of the ship on the opposite side burning, and in confusion, Sima Yi ordered all to stop the attack and approach the boat.

Gan Ning saw that the arrows had stopped, so he also ordered everyone to put down the straw men and return.

After Sima Yi came closer, he paused and beat his chest and said, "I've been fooled again, who is the man in white on the other side?" ”

A soldier next to him said in a low voice: "I heard that the other side is the military advisor of the Dragon Kingdom, Zhuge Liang. ”

Sima Yi heard the words of the soldier next to him, so he ordered: "Go, find out for me who this Zhuge Liang is." ”

Turning his head and talking about the side of the combined army, Gan Ning returned with a full load, and returned to the ferry to report to Zhou Gongjin: "Report to the Dugong, this time we have obtained a total of 20,000 arrows, no casualties, everything is in the calculation of Zhuge Military Division." Then Gan Ning reported the entire battle to Zhou Gongjin.

When Zhou Gongjin heard this, he asked Zhuge Liang with a smile: "Then military advisor, what are we going to do next?"

Zhuge Liang replied: "My Dragon Kingdom army has arrived at your army dock, and then I will ask Brother Zhou to help me prepare some more things." ”

Zhou Gongjin asked, "What else do you need to prepare?"

Zhuge Liang smiled: "A thousand wooden barrels, filled with fire oil." ”

Zhou Gongjin was puzzled: "The wooden barrel is fine, but there is not so much oil." ”

Zhuge Liang said: "It's okay, please Brother Zhou come with me with five hundred soldiers." After speaking, he turned his head and left, and Zhou Gongjin followed after arranging for Gan Ning to dispatch soldiers.

The group came to a depression, stopped their pace, and Zhuge Liang ordered: "Everyone, put the torches five zhang away from the perimeter of the depression, then take off your shoes and socks, and slowly walk to the center of the depression and dig down." ”

When the soldier heard the order, he did not hesitate, and began to carry out the order, and after digging for an hour or so, black water began to gush up from the ground, and the smell was pungent.

Zhou Gongjin asked Zhuge Liang: "Brother Zhuge , this water is the same color as fire oil, but it smells pungent, what is it?"

Zhuge Liang smiled: "This is crude oil, and it will burn when it encounters fire." Brother Zhou, please let the subordinate soldiers collect this crude oil. ”

Zhou Gongjin ordered all the soldiers to collect crude oil, and after collecting it, he rushed back to the barracks with Zhuge Liang.

Entering the camp, he saluted Liu Xuande and said: "Lord of the country, today is the best time to send troops to attack, if you miss it, you won't be able to catch it all." ”

Liu Xuande pondered for a while and said, "Is the military advisor accurate?"

Zhuge Liang raised his head and said: "After today, the Cao army will withdraw half of its troops, and when the time comes, it will attack the western border of our Dragon Kingdom, and then our Dragon Kingdom will suffer from the enemy." ”

Liu Xuande immediately said: "Okay, Yun Chang and Yide, you two will lead the troops to battle, and everything will be arranged by the military division." ”

The three of them received the order and walked out of the camp tent, leaving only Liu Xuande alone in the camp tent, showing a sinister smile, and said lightly: "As soon as the battle is over, it will be one step closer to dominating the world, hahahaha." ”

Zhuge Liang, Yun Chang, and Yide walked side by side to the shore, Zhuge Liang suddenly felt something, glanced back, lowered his head and sighed: "Alas, I don't know if I can change this fate." ”

When the three of them came to the shore, Zhuge Liang ordered: "Yun Chang, you take a thousand archers, walk at the front of the fleet, and when you are two miles away from the other party, you can attack." ”

Yun Chang was puzzled: "Military Division, the distance of two miles from the enemy army is still outside the shooting range, isn't this a waste of arrows?"

Zhuge Liang smiled: "Don't worry, there will be the wind god to help you when the time comes, you just have to attack." After speaking, he turned his head to look at Yide and said, "Yide, you take the rest of the troops to guard behind the archers, and when everyone is burned, you will surprise and attack and cut them off directly from the center of the enemy." ”

The two received the order and prepared to set off, at this time, General Gan Ning of the Wind Country sent crude oil, and Zhuge Liang said to him: "General Gan, you go back and tell Brother Zhou that after we send troops with a stick of incense, let him lead all the soldiers to set off from both ends and take the enemy by surprise." ”

Gan Ning hugged his fists and took the order, and went back to find Zhou Gongjin, leaving Zhuge Liang alone, looking at the moonlight, and said in his mouth: "I hope everything goes well." ”

Shi Fu in mid-air was already completely confused, what about the battle of Chibi that he said, what about borrowing the east wind, why is it gone, is it true that what is written in the historical materials is fake? Did I read this fake historical record?......
