Chapter 70: A Serial Plan
Seeing that Cheng Pu had already said this, all the generals in Jiangdong who followed Liu Feng to kill the enemy in this battle came to the front to congratulate Liu Feng, and Liu Feng just smiled in return.
After this battle, Liu Feng finally completely conquered these Jiangdong naval forces, although outnumbered, Liu Feng made full use of the advantages of the Jiangdong naval army, hit Cai Mao by surprise, and then when Cai Mao was about to turn the bow of the ship, he didn't know what kind of strategy to use to let Cai Mao's ship and its left and right ships all sink slowly, so that Cai Mao even if he had 100,000 sailors, it was difficult to resist Liu Feng's three fronts echoing each other, rushing back and forth, therefore, Liu Feng almost did not lose many soldiers in this battle, and he was already victorious.
On the way back, Gan Ning went to Liu Feng's side to ask, he was on the light boat during the war, and saw Cai Mao's warship sinking slowly for some reason, and when the sergeant on Cai Mao's boat found out, he couldn't save it, so he had to flee in a hurry.
Therefore, Gan Ning was very puzzled about how Liu Feng was sinking the warship, and as soon as everyone dispersed, they came to Liu Feng to ask each other.
"Xingba is a general under the command of Gong Jin, although he is a friendly army with me, but he can't tell the bottom of the seal and the plate, as for this victory, Feng has only done a little, that is, the enemy is expected to be the first, if you let the seal go to the front of the battle, then the seal is also powerless."
Leaving only this one sentence, Liu Feng didn't say much, and Gan Ning thought about it for a while, and also felt that he came to ask rashly, there was indeed something inappropriate, so he didn't ask anymore, but when he turned around, he saw Ling Tong looking at him at this time, but it didn't seem to be like before, as if he was going to kill him, although Gan Ning had doubts in his heart, he didn't dare to go to talk to Ling Tong, so he had to go back to the cabin alone.
When Liu Feng and the Jiangdong generals arrived at Zhou Yu's camp, it was already nearly dusk, but Liu Feng saw a building ship waiting on the river from a distance, and after a closer look, Zhou Yu was standing on the deck of the building ship, looking at Liu Feng's boat, his face was full of joy, and he obviously knew that Liu Feng led the army to defeat Cai Mao.
After a short time, Liu Feng arrived in the village, and after getting off the boat, Zhou Yu held Liu Feng's hands tightly, and his face could not hide his excitement, and said: "This time Ziwei has frustrated the spirit of Cao Cao's army, I have already returned to General Sun and Liu Yuzhou at this time, I think the two will also be relieved for the time being, then Cao Cao after this battle, he can not have any contempt for the water army of my Sun and Liu Alliance, according to Ziwei's previous plan, it is a good move!" ”
After that, Zhou Yu let Liu Feng into the house, the house has already been prepared with all kinds of delicacies, thinking that Zhou Yu got the good news, and began to work on this celebration, this is the first victory of Sun Quan and Liu Bei's coalition army, although Cao Cao is known as a million army, it is not a break in the bones, but it is enough to make Cao Jun jealous of it. did not dare to send troops again in the near future, which gave Liu Feng and Zhou Yu a lot of time to plan follow-up strategies.
At this time, in the big tent of the Cao Army, it was a different scene, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun, at this time, the front was iron-blue, standing in Cao Cao's account, especially Cai Mao, this time he fled in embarrassment on the river, and passed by Gan Ning and others several times.
Cao Cao sat on top of the handsome case, his face was extremely unkind, and he was looking at Cai Mao and Zhang Yun, and when they saw Cao Cao like this, where did they dare to look, they just lowered their heads deeply and did not make a sound.
"In this battle with the naval army of the two families of Sun and Liu, how much did you lose?" Cao Cao saw that the two of them were submissive, sighed, and asked sharply.
Cai Mao and Zhang Yun glanced at each other, Zhang Yun did not follow Cai Mao on the big boat in front of his head, and he didn't know why Cai Mao had not returned to command for a long time, so he lowered his head again, Cai Mao had no choice but to step forward in person, first bowed to Cao Cao, and then replied in a low voice: "This time I fell into the treacherous scheme set up by Liu Feng, our army was somewhat damaged, and those who died at the hands of the enemy, plus those who died due to panic and fell into the water, after investigation, there are more than 9,000 people......"
Cai Mao faced Cao Cao, did not dare to hide anything, so he had to say something, in fact, among the nine thousand, almost seventy percent were the army brought by Cao Cao from the north, Cai Mao naturally did not dare to talk about these, only said the total number, and then stopped speaking.
"Then how many sailors did Liu Feng bring this time?" Cao Cao stroked the long beard on his face, and asked indifferently.
"According to our observations, there are about three or four thousand elite sailors at the rate of Liu Feng......" Cai Mao just replied two sentences, his face was already sweating profusely, knowing that Cao Cao must be very angry about this defeat.
"30,000 troops, hundreds of warships, can't defeat 3,000 coalition troops, you are the governor of the navy, what is the reason, could it be that Liu Feng led it, all of them can be one enemy and ten people?" When Cao Cao heard this, he was immediately furious, and suddenly stood up, hurriedly walked to Cai Mao, pointed to Cai Mao's cheek, and asked in a loud voice.
Cai Mao was very panicked when he saw this, so he had to kneel on the ground, but he didn't know how to respond for a while, and after a long time, he slowly replied: "This defeat is actually because the prime minister from the north led the army to the ship for the first time, and he is not familiar with the water battle, and Liu Feng Xiaoer does not know when to sneak into our army, and the big ships in front of us are all destroyed, so that we do not notice for a while, and sink several warships. It was when Liu Bei and Sun Quan's combined forces perished! ”
Cao Cao listened, paced a few steps in place, forcibly held back the anger in his heart, and said to Cai Mao: "There is another half a month, the military drill must be completed, I led a million troops to roll in, far away from Xuchang, this daily consumption of money and food is innumerable, if you can't complete the naval drill on time, then the military law will be disposed of!" ”
Cai Mao and Zhang Yun listened, and all of them bowed to Cao Cao a few more times, and when they saw that Cao Cao just waved his hand, he hurriedly thanked him, and then turned around and left in a hurry.
After the two left, Cao Cao summoned a general, this general was the supervisor of Cai Mao's big ship during the previous water war, Cao Cao summoned him to the front, and asked in a low voice: "According to what you said before, when Cai Mao fled, the Jiangdong naval army general had already discovered it, but he had not chased the boat he was on?" ”
"Exactly, that general was passing by with our escape ship at that time, according to the words of the former Jingzhou Navy sergeant, that person was Gan Ning, the general of Jiangdong, the last general thought that Gan Ning should know Cai Mao, but he looked at it a few times, but he did not chase him." When the man saw Cao Cao asking, he didn't dare to slack off, so he told Cao Cao about the ship.
