Cao Cao boarded the dry village, and then rectified the sergeants, and called Cai Mao and Zhang Yun to come over and reproach: "Jiangdong has few soldiers, but it is defeated, you don't have to use your ears!" ”

Cai Mao said: "Jingzhou Navy has not practiced for a long time; The armies of Qing and Xu were never accustomed to water warfare, so they were defeated. Now we should set up the water village first, so that the Qing and Xu armies are in the middle, and the Jingzhou army is outside, and they can only be used if they are proficient in teaching and practicing every day. ”

Cao Cao said angrily: "Since you are the governor of the navy, you can do it cheaply, why bother with me!" ”

So Cai Mao and Zhang Yun went to train the navy. The area along the river is divided into 24 water gates, with large ships docked outside as the city, and small boats inside, which can be accessed. When the lights are lit up in the evening, the water surface of the sky is red. The dry village is more than 300 miles, and the fireworks are endless.

Gan Ning and the others returned to the village victoriously, Chen Wu was overjoyed, rewarded the three armies, and sent people to Han Hao to report the victory. That night, Chen Wu went to a high place to inspect the enemy situation with a telescope, only to see the fire in the west.

The guards on the left and right told him: "This is the light of the lights of the Northern Army." ”

Chen Wu was uneasy in his heart, although he also knew that Cao Cao's army was not as large as hundreds of thousands, but the number of Cao's army was definitely more than them. Chen Wutong led an army of 50,000, and Liu Du was only 20,000 or 30,000 when he was full, and looking at Cao Cao's army that stretched for more than 300 miles, I am afraid that there were really nearly 200,000 people.

The next day, there was a mist on the river, and the telescope could not see clearly, so Chen Wu was ready to visit Cao Jun's water village in person. Chen Wu then ordered someone to prepare a building boat, with drum music, accompanied by the athletes Guan Hai, Gongsun Yang and others, each with a strong bow and a crossbow, and boarded the boat together to move forward.

When he arrived at Cao Junzhai, Chen Wu ordered people to pour down the ballast stone, and the drum music on the building boat played in unison. Chen Wu secretly spied on Cao Cao's water village and said in shock: "Cao Jun's water village is so deployed, there must be good water fighters to help." ”

Chen Wu asked, "Who is the governor of the Cao army and the navy?" ”

Guan Hai said: "It's Liu Biao's old generals Cai Mao and Zhang Yun. ”

Chen Wu secretly thought to himself: "Aren't these two people the two people who were killed by Zhou Yu in the romance with a counter-plot to make Cao Cao?" Although their water war may not be as good as Gan Ning, they still have to get rid of these two people first, and then they can break Cao. ”

It's just that Chen Wu didn't know that Cai Mao and Zhang Yun were not killed because of Cao Cao's discord in history. Chen Wu was peeping into the room, and Cao Bingfei had already reported to Cao Cao, saying: "Chen Wu peeked at my village. ”

Cao Cao slapped the table and shouted: "Chen Wu Xiao'er, dare to come here in person!" Ordered the army to capture Chen Wu by boat. ”

Chen Wu saw that the flag in Cao Jun's water village was moving, and he hurriedly taught people to turn the bow of the boat, and the two sides turned the oars together, looking at the river and leaving. By the time the boat came out of Cao Jun's water village, Chen Wu's boat had sailed more than ten miles away and could not catch up, so the soldiers had to report back to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao sighed and asked the generals: "I lost for a while yesterday, and I was frustrated; Now it is Chen Wushen peeping at my village. I heard that although Chen Wu is young, his courage is similar to Xiangji, and now he looks at his command of the army and the art of war, and he is a real general, and he can't be used by me! ”

Cao Cao didn't finish speaking, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a person in the staff of the hall with a red face, Cao Cao said to him: "Ziyi, you are a famous man in Jiujiang, and you can only stand alone between Jianghuai and Jianghuai, can you go to Jiangdong for me to say that this person is coming to surrender?" ”

It turned out that the guest in the scene was Jiang Gan, the word Ziyi. Jiang Gan said to Cao Cao: "I heard that Chen Wu and Han Xuan have a deep friendship, and I am afraid that I will not come to surrender. ”

Cao Cao said, "Ziyi, let's give it a try." ”

Jiang Gan had no choice but to respond, he was robed with a scarf and cloth, drove a small boat, went straight to Chen Wuzhai, and ordered the sergeant at the door to report: "Jiujiang Jiang Gan visits." ”

Chen Wu was discussing with Zhuge Liang in the tent, and when he heard Jiang Gan coming, he thought that he was not a lobbyist, but he was not familiar with him, and it was useless for him to come. Chen Wu whispered to Zhuge Liang: "Jiang Gan will come to operate as a lobbyist for Cao, and I can make a counter-plot to order Cao Cao to kill Cai Mao and Zhang Yun." Kong Ming and wait and see! ”

Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan and smiled without answering, Chen Wu tidied up his clothes and led hundreds of people from front to back. Jiang Gan led a boy in Tsing Yi and came with high spirits. After Chen Wu and Jiang Gan finished visiting, Chen Wu smiled and said: "Mr. Ziyi is good and hard, and he has traveled far away from the rivers and lakes, so he is not a lobbyist for the Cao family?" ”

Jiang Gan was stunned and said: "I am separated from the state of Zuxia, and there is no separation in the middle." I heard the name of the foot from afar, so I came to see each other and look at the elegant rules, and the cloud lobbyist is not a deceit?

Chen Wu said with a smile: "Although I don't know Ya music, there is a person here who listens to the strings and appreciates the music, and he knows Ya Song." ”

"Begging to see each other." Jiang Gan arched his hand and said, and Chen Wu asked Jiang Gan to enter the account. After the ceremony, everyone sat down, and Chen Wu immediately ordered Zhuge Liang and Jiang Zuo Yingjie to meet Jiang Gan.

After a while, the civil and military generals, each wearing brocade clothes; Under the tent, the generals and colonels were all dressed in silver armor and entered in two lines. Chen Wudu taught them to meet Jiang Gan, so he let them sit on both sides, feast on a large scale, play the joy of victory in the army, and take turns drinking.

Chen Wu said to the officials: "Mr. Ziyi is a famous person in Jianghuai, although he came here from Jiangbei, he is not a lobbyist of the Cao family. Don't be suspicious. ”

Chen Wu untied his sword and gave it to Tai Shici, and said to him loudly: "General Ziyi can wear my sword as a prisoner: today's banquet and drink, only talk about it, if you mention Cao Cao and the Jiangdong army, you will be killed!" ”

Tai Shi Ci agreed, pressed the sword and sat on the chair. Jiang Gan was a little stunned and didn't dare to say more. Chen Wu said: "Since I led the army, I have not drunk a drop of wine; Today, when I saw a master like Mr. Ziyi, I should make an exception and get drunk. ”

Chen Wu said playing, laughing and drinking. The seats were staggered, and everyone toasted each other. When he was half drunk, Chen Wu took Jiang Gan's hand and walked out of the tent together. The sergeants in the left and right rows are all fully armed, armed with spears or halberds.

Chen Wu smiled and asked, "My sergeant, is it quite majestic?" ”

Jiang Gan exclaimed: "What a real bear and tiger man is." ”

Chen Wu led Jiang Gan to the back of the tent and looked at it, and the grain and grass were piled up. Chen Wu asked, "Is my grain and grass quite sufficient?" ”

Jiang Gan nodded again and again: "The soldiers are good enough to eat, and they live up to their reputation." ”

Chen Wu pretended to be drunk and laughed: "I think at the beginning, I was just a child of a businessman in Songzi County, Lujiang County, and I never expected to be where I am today. ”

Jiang Gan had no choice but to hold him: "It's not an exaggeration to be a general." ”

Chen Wu dragged his swaying body, pointed at Jiang Gan and said: "The husband is in the world, he meets the master of his confidant, the righteousness of the monarch and the minister outside, and the grace of the flesh and blood inside. Even if Su Qin and Zhang Yi come back, their mouths are like hanging rivers, and their tongues are like sharp blades, An can move my heart! ”

Chen Wu laughed after speaking, and Jiang Gan just laughed and didn't answer. Chen Wu led Jiang Gan into the big tent again, drank again with the generals, pointed to the generals and said to Jiang Gan: "These are all heroes of Jiangdong. Today's meeting can be called 'Heroes Club'. ”

Drink until late and light the lamps and candles, Chen Wu is still persuading Jiang Gan to drink a few more, but Chen Wu did not call people to drink high, Chen Wu poured wine for Jiang Gan and said: "Come on, come on, wine is food, the more you drink, the younger you are......"

Chen Wuzhen was a little drunk, stood up and danced with a sword and sang. Sing: "Ordinary disco I shake ...... ordinary"

Chen Wu had a lot of fun with rock music, and the generals behind him swayed together, and everyone in the audience laughed from time to time, which made Jiang Gan very embarrassed.

In the middle of the night, Jiang Gan got up and said goodbye: "I can't do enough to drink." ”

Yu ordered the resignation, and the generals resigned. Chen Wu said: "I heard that you ancients and friends sleep together, I haven't been so happy for a long time, can I be regarded as a friend of Ziyi now?" Tonight, I will sleep with Ziyi and sleep on my feet. ”

Chen Wu then pretended to be drunk, took Jiang Gan's hand and went into the tent to sleep together. Chen Wu took off his robe and lay down on the bed, vomiting for a while. How can Jiang Gan sleep? When he put his ear on the pillow to listen, the army played the second watch drum, and when he got up to look, the remaining lamp oil on the lampstand was still on.

Looking at Chen Wu again, the snoring was like thunder. Jiang Gan saw a volume of documents piled up on the table in the tent, so he got up and picked it up secretly to read, but it was all correspondence. There is a letter inside, which reads "Cai Mao Zhang Yun Respectfully Sealed".

Jiang Gan was shocked, read it quickly, and the letter roughly said: A certain kind of Cao is not Tu Shilu, and he is forced to hear. Now the northern army is trapped in the village, but with its convenience, it is about to be the head of the thief and dedicated to his command. Sooner or later, when people arrive, they will report it. Don't be suspicious. First of all, I would like to say this.

Jiang Gan thought: "Could it be that Cai Mao and Zhang Yun are connected with Dongwu?" ”

He doubted his letters, but he hid them in his sleeves. When Jiang Gan wanted to check other paperwork again, Chen Wu turned over on the bed, and Jiang Gan hurriedly turned off the light and went to bed.

Chen Wu shouted vaguely: "Ziyi, I will teach you to see the head of Cao Cao's old thief in a few days!" ”

Jiang Gan was a little flustered, but fortunately Chen Wu was just talking in his sleep. Jiang Gan reluctantly responded and shouted to Chen Wu: "General? Zilie? But I saw that Chen Wu fell asleep again.
