"Xiaoxian, Wen Ze, how many enemies are there?" Cao Cao hurriedly asked the two. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info filial piety is the word of Mao Jue, and the text is the word of Yu Ban, and the name is more important than the name.

Yu Ban reported: "Prime Minister, the fog on the river is too big to see clearly, but I am afraid that there will be no less than 10,000 people!" ”

Mao Jue also agreed with his statement and said: "The enemy army is not only preparing to attack the water village, but also approaching the river, please make a decision." ”

Cao Cao asked the surrounding generals and generals, "Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think?" ”

"Prime Minister, I think that the enemy army is now unclear and foggy, so it is not appropriate to send troops to meet it. And the Dongwu soldiers are good at the water station, if our soldiers go to war, they will definitely lose a lot. One of the strategists said, "I suggest defending first, and then making plans when the fog clears after dawn." ”

"Gongda's statement is reasonable." Cao Cao thought so deeply and said, "Then let the soldiers shoot with arrows and do a good job of defense." Wait until dawn to identify the situation before making a decision. ”

Lu Xiaochuan had been secretly looking at them early and heard the conversation. He also understood the identity of a person, the strategist Gongda who gave advice was the famous Xun Yu in history.

Xun You is the nephew of Xun Yu (xun, yu, not gou, huo), he once offered a plan to capture Lü Bu alive, and also attacked the west in the battle of Guandu, and asked Guan Yu to kill Yan Liang and Wen Chou. He is a great adviser by Cao Cao's side and has won his trust.

However, at this time, Xun You looked old, his eyes were deep-set, and he didn't look well, as if he was going to die in a few years.

"Wen Ze, Xiaoxian, you two go to the water village and order the water army to shoot from the river. Wen Yuan, Gongming, each of you will bring 3,000 crossbowmen, and quickly go to the river to help shoot! Cao Cao ordered.

"Humble command!" The two generals gave up.

When Lu Xiaochuan heard these two names again, his heart suddenly moved. Wen Yuan, isn't that Zhang Liao, one of Cao Jun's five good generals? Gongming is Xu Huang, the general of the Cao army, and he is also one of the five good generals!

Thinking of the scene he saw just now and the scene where Cao Cao asked people to shoot arrows, Lu Xiaochuan suddenly remembered that it was time for Zhuge Kongming's "Grass Boat Borrowing Arrows" plot!

In other words, when Xu Huang and the others are waiting, they are really going to be shot by someone and waste more than 100,000 arrows on the grass boat!

What a time to behave! Lu Xiaochuan suddenly remembered that if he saw through Zhuge Liang's tricks at this time, he would definitely be valued by Cao Cao, and the next things would be much easier.

The opportunity was fleeting, and Lu Xiaochuan took a step forward at the moment and bowed to Cao Cao: "Prime Minister, there is something to tell you about your humble position!" ”

If he really was just a creep, this kind of behavior would undoubtedly be the same as death. But if you have the ability, then it's fine. Although Cao Cao has mixed history, he attaches great importance to talents. As long as you don't break his taboos, he can tolerate you.

"Who are you?" Cao Cao frowned and asked.

"The humble duty is General Yu's own soldiers, and he just went with General Yu to inspect the situation of the enemy army. The lowly found that the enemy could be a bluff! Lu Xiaochuan faced Cao Cao and behaved neither humbly nor arrogantly.

He had seen Qin Shi Huang and fooled him, and now he was not so afraid when he saw Prime Minister Cao Cheng, Yingzheng was much more brutal than Cao Cao!

"What do you mean by that?" Cao Cao asked in detail.

Lu Xiaochuan gave him an analysis and said: "Just now we watched from a distance, and we saw that those ships were beating drums, but we didn't see an attack. If we attack the camp at night, they will definitely take advantage of our unpreparedness, how can they make such a noise? ”

"And they seem to have many warships, but they have been hovering in front and have been slow to attack. So the humble thinks that this is just a feint! If our army uses arrows, I am afraid that we will waste arrows in vain, which will damage the prestige of the prime minister! ”

After Lu Xiaochuan finished speaking, Mao Jue shouted on the spot: "This is a military tent, just a pawn, how can you let you guess wildly, don't retreat quickly!" ”

He and Yu Ban were the governors of the navy, and the situation was reported by the two of them. Lu Xiaochuan reported again, and analyzed it in detail, didn't he say that they were incompetent?

At this time, even Yu Ban was displeased, and shouted: "Stand down!" ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he was also puzzled. He is suspicious by nature, and he has the best face. Cai Mao and Zhang Yun, the governors of the navy, were killed by him before, and he later understood that he had fallen for Zhou Yu's tricks, but he couldn't save face and admit his mistakes, and let these two generals not be corrected by him after their deaths.

If Wu Jun is really teased this time, then his majesty will be greatly damaged! And the number of his soldiers is several times that of the other party, even if the other party really fights, he is not afraid.

Cao Cao stopped: "Wait, you talk about it again, is there a way to prove that they are feints?" ”

Lu Xiaochuan was overjoyed when he heard this, and finally had a chance to perform himself. He hurriedly offered a plan: "Prime Minister, I see those shadows on the enemy ship, standing motionless, I'm afraid it's a dummy." Why don't we shoot it with a rocket and probe the real and the false? ”

"Hahahaha! Vulgar opinion! Mao Jue laughed on the side and said, "It's really ignorant, rockets are used for siege, and it takes a long time to prepare." Prepare now, it will only delay the fighter! ”

On the side, Xun You also shook his head and said, "Prime Minister, this plan doesn't work!" Now the river is foggy and the humidity is too heavy. It's a problem for our rockets to even ignite, let alone shoot miles away. Moreover, even if the straw is covered with a layer of water, even if it is shot on the enemy ship by luck, there is no way to ignite the enemy ship. ”

"Gongda's words are very true!" All the advisors nodded. Lu Xiaochuan felt a moment in his heart, he had miscalculated!

During the Three Kingdoms period, the military technology was not yet developed, and in such foggy weather, the effective attack distance of the rocket was only one or two hundred meters at most, or even tens of meters, and the fire was extinguished. No wonder Zhuge Liang dared to borrow arrows from a grass boat, it turned out that he really counted all of this!

Even if one or two arrows really hit the wet straw, it won't ignite, not to mention that there are still people on the boat, just put out the fire.

Now Lu Xiaochuan has offended Mao Jue and Yu Ban, and he is in a dilemma. He gritted his teeth and said, "Prime Minister, I am willing to take someone to explore the enemy's reality. ”

"Bold!" Mao Jue shouted: "You little pawn still want to lead the army? Repeatedly offended the prime minister, military law should be beheaded! ”

The more critical the time, the more you can't admit it, otherwise it will be over. Lu Xiaochuan shouted: "Prime Minister, I am willing to make a military order." With just a few ships, I can find out what is true and what is false. ”

If the other party is really coming with a large army, sending people out will definitely send them to death. Lu Xiaochuan dared to issue a military order, but he was a courageous person. Cao Cao suddenly had a heart for talent and was a little hesitant.

At this time, another person said: "Prime Minister, I think you can give it a try." We'll send an archer ready for him to go and find out. If the enemy is not a feint, we can deal with it. ”

"Well, then according to the text and the opinion." Cao Cao nodded and said, "Gu sent twenty clippers to you, if what you said is true, Gu will come back to celebrate your achievements." If you disobey the military order, but you will not be spared! ”

"Thank you, Prime Minister, I will definitely complete the task!" Lu Xiaochuan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and almost planted it, but fortunately there was someone who understood. That Wenhe is the name of the strategist Jia Xu.

Yu Ban took him to transfer the ship, and Lu Xiaochuan also deliberately excused himself: "General, the situation was urgent just now, and I overstepped my duty!" ”

Yu Ban said: "Lao Tzu wanted to kill you with one sword, but now there is no hurry." Later, if you run back without finding any information, you will definitely lose your head! ”

"I will live up to my expectations!" Lu Xiaochuan clenched his fists, and then took the soldiers to the boat. There were twenty clippers in total, and the sergeants on them were all under his command.

Lu Xiaochuan took the fast boat, thinking of a way. He was surrounded by Cao Cao's soldiers on his left and right, and if he dared to flee now, these soldiers thought they would kill him first. But he didn't need to run away, after all, the other party was just bluffing.

Cao Cao took his generals and strategists to watch the situation on the riverside, and the fog became thicker and thicker at this time, and the clipper could only see some vague shadows. On the enemy's side, there seems to be a overlapping shadow, perhaps psychologically, it looks like hundreds of warships are coming.

At this time, the straw boat. Zhuge Liang was still discussing things with Lu Su, and Lu Su had already learned of his plan, and said with emotion: "Kong Ming, no wonder you are called Mr. Wolong." It's a bold but practical one. Cao Cao was suspicious by nature, and did not dare to directly send troops out to attack, but shot with arrows. ”

"I've already shot a lot of arrows just now, we have straw men to block the arrows, 100,000 arrows can be borrowed overnight, and Zhou Dudu will have nothing to say at that time."

Zhuge Liang shook the goose feather fan and said with a smile: "Zi Jing has a good reputation, now that they have stopped archery, they must be a little hesitant, let's force it again." ”

At the same time, he ordered: "Bring the ships closer, and let the soldiers continue to beat their drums and shout!" ”

"Yes!" Left and right to execute immediately.

The sound of war drums shook the sky, and Cao Cao couldn't help but want to order the soldiers to shoot arrows. On Lu Xiaochuan's boat, the soldiers were also very weak-hearted, if it weren't for the main general, they would all want to turn around and run away.

Lu Xiaochuan knew that if he took the initiative to attack, he might even be able to capture or kill Zhuge Liang and Lu Su alive. But he thought about it for a moment and couldn't do that.

With Cao Cao's character, if Zhuge Liang is caught, he will definitely be treated as a guest like Xu Shu, and then he will be fooled.

And Zhou Yu is secretly competing with Zhuge Liang, if there is no Zhuge Liang, Zhou Gongjin will have no scruples. At that time, he will also use the strategy of fire attack, and this will greatly deviate from the original plot, making it difficult for Lu Xiaochuan to predict the next.

It's better to scare them away first and gain Cao Cao's attention.

"Command the boats, with ropes, to connect their ends to their ends, and to line them up in a row. All boats must beat their drums and shout, the louder the better! Lu Xiaochuan instructed, "By the way, let them shout 'The prime minister has an order, capture Zhuge Villager alive, Lu Zijing'." ”

"Yes, General!" The soldiers hurriedly went to do what was planned.

They quickly beat drums and shouted, and the momentum was not false compared to Zhuge Liang's side. On the edge of the river, Cao Cao and the others looked puzzled, and Cao Cao said, "What are they doing?" ”

Jia Xu thought for a moment and said with a smile: "I'm afraid it's a bluff and creates the illusion of our army's attack." ”

Mao Jue shook his head and said: "It's too stupid, the enemy army is already attacking the camp, and such behavior is just sending you to death!" ”
