The potter sneered in his heart, but on the surface he was ecstatic, and was very surprised and praised Pang Tong's coming. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Mr. Shiyuan came from the south, and he should be familiar with the reality of the Wu-Chu coalition army, and you must have prepared a big gift for this king when you come back this time." The potter smiled, his mood showing some excitement.

Pang Tongyi smiled, but said: "Although the king defeated Zhou Yu before, but the vitality of the Wu Chu coalition army was not injured, and the king confronted him across the river like this, and he did not move, I am afraid that the king will soon be in danger." ”

Pang Tong's words were a bit alarmist, so the potter pretended to be shocked and hurriedly said: "What danger will this king fall into?" ”

Pang Tong said unhurriedly: "The king implemented the Shang Martingale reform in the country, and the family must be resentful, and Liu Bei, the king of Yan in the north, is about to wipe out Gongsun Du, and he will unite with the Xianbei and other Hu tribes to go south, but at that time, the king is trapped in the mud of the south of the Yangtze River and cannot get out, isn't this dangerous enough?" ”

Pang Tongtong's remarks also pointed out the disadvantages faced by the potters.

The pottery merchant frowned, and said with a helpless wry smile: "What Mr. said, this king doesn't know, but at the moment, the two armies of Wu and Chu are not moving, shrinking without fighting, and the king's water army is limited, and there is not much chance of winning if he wants to storm the enemy camp, so why does this king want to drag it down." ”

Pang Tong smiled slightly, stroked his short beard lightly, and a little mystery passed between his eyebrows.

The potter knew the meaning of Pang Tong's smile, so he took the opportunity to say: "Since Mr. Shiyuan can point out the plight of this king, I think there is a solution in my heart, please make it clear." ”

"There is indeed a small skill here, which may help the king solve the weakness of the navy army." As he spoke, Pang Tong stood up and stretched out his hand to Jing Ke, "This general, can you borrow your sword?" ”

Although Pang Tong has come to surrender to the potter, but in the end he is still a new person, and he has not gained trust, at this time, Pang Tong asked his personal guard for a sword in front of the potter, how can this not make people suspicious.

A powerless Pang Tong, even if the potter is suspicious of Pang Tong's actions, but with his current strength value approaching 90, how can he be afraid of him.

Then he smiled, glanced at Jing Ke, and asked him to lend the sword to Pang Tong.

Jing Ke had no choice but to hand over the sword to Pang Tong, but his eyes were always on him, in case he made any changes, which would be unfavorable to the potter.

Pang Tong held the sword in his hand, put it down gently, and placed it between the potter and his desk, forming a bridge.

"Sir, this is ......" the potter had seen his intentions, but pretended to be puzzled.

Pang Tong smiled, "I have heard for a long time that the king is wise and incomparable, with the king's knowledge, can't you still see the meaning of unification?" ”

The potter pondered carefully, pretended to think deeply for a while, and suddenly laughed ecstatically, and exclaimed excitedly: "Wonderful, sir's plan, it is really a clever plan!" ”

"The king is really resourceful, and he admires him." Pang Tong saw that the potter saw the doorway, so he gave his hand and praised.

The potter saw it, but Zhang Liang, Jing Ke and others were at a loss and had not yet seen the clues.

At this time, Pang Tong smiled and said: "The weakness of the king is that the number of naval troops is not as good as the enemy's army, although the infantry army is strong, but they are not accustomed to water, forcibly get on the ship, once they encounter wind and waves, they can't even stand on their feet, they can't fight the enemy at all, and no matter how many people they are, it won't help." ”

Then, Pang Tong gestured with his hand on the sword of the horizontal frame, "But if the king connects the warships, or a team of three, or a team of five, with iron locks to form a whole, and then covers them with wooden planks, and then the iron locks connect the boats, then they can be without fear of the bumps of the wind and waves, even if they are not familiar with the water, they can walk freely on it, and even the war horses can gallop on it, at that time, the king will solve the weakness of the lack of sailors in one fell swoop, and he is afraid that he will not be able to break the enemy camp on the south bank." ”

Pang Tong sprinkled some words and broke his strategy.

Of course, the potter knew that this strategy was the serial plan he gave to Cao Cao during the Battle of Chibi in history.

And this series of schemes happened to trap Cao Cao, so that when Gan Ning set fire to the ship, the Cao army's warships did not have time to disperse and were all burned.

Although history has changed, the Battle of Chibi has not changed, Pang Tong can't pit Cao Cao, he has changed to pit himself.

Left and right civil and military people, naturally suddenly realized.

Zhang Liang stood up and objected for the first time: "Mr. Pang's plan is indeed to allow me to board the ship to fight, as if I am on the ground, but if the enemy uses a fire attack, our warships will be chained to each other, and there will be no time to disperse, and only one will be ignited, won't all the sailors be burned to ashes." ”

Zhang Liang is worthy of being Zhang Liang, although he couldn't see it at first sight before, once he knew Pang Tong's intentions, he immediately saw the flaws.

Pang Tong glanced at Zhang Liang, a hint of strange color flashed in his eyes, as if he was surprised that Zhang Liang could see the flaws in his strategy.

Soon, he smiled disapprovingly, "I have heard for a long time that Zhang Zifang is resourceful, but unfortunately he lacks this astronomical climate, you should know that since ancient times, the implementation of fire attacks must be carried out with the help of the wind, in this midwinter land in the south of the Yangtze River, even if the enemy army wants to carry out fire attacks, where to find the southeast wind, is it difficult, do they want to burn themselves?" ”

Zhang Liang was stunned and wanted to say more, but the potter waved his hand and said happily: "Shi Yuan's words are reasonable, the ovary does not need to hesitate, this king has decided, and it will be according to Shi Yuan's plan!" ”

The potter didn't give Zhang Liang a chance to question again, so he took the lead and adopted Pang Tong's plan.

Zhang Liang frowned, and when he wanted to persuade him again, the potter nodded to him slightly and made a hint.

What kind of resourcefulness is Zhang Liang, a few points higher than Pang Tong, as soon as the potter's eyes showed this, he immediately realized that the potter had already known his concerns, but he was deliberately adopting all the plans.

As soon as his thoughts turned, he thought of all kinds of doubts, and the corners of Zhang Liang's mouth raised a sly smile, so he didn't say anything more.

Pang Tong didn't see that the communication between his lords and ministers was still praising the wisdom of the pottery merchants.

"Shiyuan, if this king can defeat the Wu-Chu coalition army this time and take Jingzhou, you will be the first merit, and this king will have a heavy reward." The potter patted Pang Tong on the shoulder and made a heavy promise.

Pang Tong hurriedly arched his hand and said: "The king is the lord of the mandate of heaven, and he serves the king for his life, but he just obeys the mandate of heaven, and he doesn't dare to take credit." ”

The potter was excited, and couldn't help laughing wildly, "Liu Biao, Sun Ce, do you think that if you are cowering on the other side, this king will not be able to bear you, you wait, this king's iron lock is a success, it is the time when this king breaks through the red cliff and destroys you." ”

Looking at the complacent potter, the corners of Pang Tong's mouth quietly raised a sneer that was not easy to detect.

At that moment, the potters adopted Pang Tong's proposal, explained to Luban, mobilized a large number of craftsmen, and implemented the policy of iron locks and boats.

Lu Ban mobilized thousands of soldiers to cut down trees, burn cast iron, and mobilized hundreds of craftsmen to build iron chains overnight.

Within seven days, hundreds of Great Wei warships were chained up to form a huge ship that surpassed the building, an unprecedentedly huge ship, covered with wooden planks, on which the infantry soldiers could walk at will, no longer afraid of bumps, and even war horses could gallop on it.

After the successful construction of the Lianzhou warship, the potters mobilized more than tens of thousands of infantry troops on the ship, and after a little practice, they drove out of the water village and paraded in the Yangtze River.

In the red cliff on the south bank, in the camp of the coalition army, Wu Chu's soldiers were all shocked when they saw such a giant ship as the Wei army, and they were all dumbfounded and gasped.

"I didn't expect that the pottery thief could come up with this iron-locked strategy, and now he has a company of warships, and even those soldiers who are not accustomed to water can walk freely on it, and the advantage of our navy is gone." Tai Shi Ci exclaimed.

The generals of Wu and Chu did not know the truth and reality, and when they saw the Wei army fighting like this, they were all speechless.

Only Sun Ce, Liu Biao and a few other insiders knew what they were doing, looking at the giant ships on the river that were showing off their might and power, several people glanced at each other, and each showed a sarcastic sneer.

……

On the river.

On the iron-locked giant ship, the potter immediately stabbed his sword, condescending, looking down at the water camp of the Wu Chu coalition army on the south bank, with a sarcastic sneer in his eagle eyes.

On the boats, the soldiers of the Great Wei Dynasty were all full of energy and morale, and after overcoming the bumps on the river, they were now full of fighting spirit, and they were eager to go to the other side with one blow.

Hou Yi beside him shouted excitedly: "King, the soldiers of our army are now walking on the ground, what are you waiting for, it is better to attack the south bank in one go and destroy the thieves of Wu Chu." ”

As soon as Hou Yi called for war, the rest of the generals all called for war generously, it seemed that because of this iron-locked plan, their class of landlubbers had enough confidence at once, and they didn't take the Wu-Chu coalition army in their eyes at all.

The generals were crazy, but the potters were very calm and not hot-headed.

Although the giant ship of the boat can allow his infantry to fight on the ship and overcome the weakness of not being accustomed to water and the wind and waves, you must know that the enemy camp of the Wu-Chu coalition army on the opposite side is strong, and the soldiers of the two armies are all proficient in water warfare.

Moreover, how could the potter forget that he adopted Pang Tong's offer and just pretended to be a trick, and now this Jiangshang show off his might is also playing for Sun Ce to show them, so that they mistakenly think that they have fallen into the trap they have laid.

The potter only smiled faintly at the moment, and suppressed the generals' calls for battle with a flick of his hand, but his eyes turned to Pang Tong, and said in an appreciative tone: "Mr. Feng Xiao, this method of iron locks and boats is really a stroke of genius. ”

"The king is heroic and heroic, sweeping away the south of the Yangtze River and dominating the world, which is the destiny of heaven." Pang Tong was busy complimenting, but the corners of his mouth quietly swept a trace of coldness.

The potter seemed to be looking at the enemy, but he had been secretly paying attention to Pang Tong's expression, and his fleeting changes could not escape the potter's eyes.

He was sneering, and the potter was quietly sneering.

"Sun Ce, Liu Biao, this king's iron lock has been completed, see if you still dare to underestimate this king does not practice water warfare, in a few days, it will be the time when this king takes your life, haha-"

The potter laughed wildly, and with great confidence, he ordered the whole army to withdraw back to the north bank.

Therefore, one after another, the giant ships flaunted their might on the river for a long time, crossed in front of the enemy camp in Chibi, and flew away under their noses before returning to the north bank.
