There is never a good thing in this world that just takes advantage of the advantage and does not suffer a loss. There is always a delicate balance between gain and loss, and there will be gains and losses, and there will be gains and losses.

Liu Xie never expects himself to gain or lose, but when he loses, he strives to make what he loses worthwhile. For example, now, the new warship was originally built to fight with Sun and Liu's armies on the water, but with the change of plan, the new warship has also changed from the original battlefield killing weapon to a prop to lure the enemy deeper.

The cost of each warship is expensive, but in order to complete the plan to lure the enemy against the Sun-Liu coalition army, these more than 20 warships that have just been launched for a short time have been included in the list of abandoned by Liu Xie. Liu Xie knew that he was reluctant to let the child trap the wolf and refused to make the capital, how to make Sun Liu believe that he had to retreat because he couldn't resist it, instead of luring the enemy deep to cut off his back road.

The ship can be rebuilt if it is gone, but it is impossible to resurrect a person after death, this account Liu Xie calculated clearly, and it is worth it to exchange more than 20 new warships for the loss of Sun Liu's vitality!

Liu Xie felt that it was worth it, but Zhuge Liang and Lu Meng on the other side of Jiang didn't know about it. When they learned that the new warships of the Han army drove into the water village, Zhuge Liang and Lu Meng were secretly happy in their hearts, in their opinion, He Qi surrendered, they took advantage of the situation to attack, and the new warships of the Han army might be captured by them and become a new combat force in their naval army. The quality of the naval army's warships directly affects the outcome of a war. The soldiers of Sun Liu's water army are brave, but in terms of hardware, they are not as good as the Han army. Moreover, the appearance of new warships also seemed to give Lu Meng and Zhuge Liang a reassurance, thinking that the Han army had not yet seen through their plans.

Everything was going according to the plan, whether it was Sun Liu or Liu Xie, they were making the final preparations for the last moment of the picture of the poor dagger, and this preparation lasted until the night when He Qi came to vote.

The moon was dark and the wind was high, and the southeast wind was strong, and Lu Meng and Zhuge Liang saw off He Qi by the river.

"Brother Gongmiao, Lu Meng wishes you success here." Lu Meng smiled and said to He Qi with a bowl of wine. And He Qi's heart had already been scolded, and the ghost wanted to be an enemy of Liu Xie, if it weren't for the fact that the family was held hostage by Sun Quan...... Alas, it's useless to think too much, now people are swordsmen, I am fish and meat, and if I want to keep my family safe, I can only go all the way to the black, and follow Sun Quan to a dead end.

"Brother Gongmiao, if you want to open a little, the icing on the cake is better than sending charcoal in the snow, Liang wishes you a successful start." Zhuge Liang on the side also smiled and toasted He Qi with a bowl of wine.

He Qi was not in the mood to accompany Lu Meng and Zhuge Liang to act, and he didn't speak, he took a sip of the wine in the bowl, broke the wine bowl and boarded the boat and shouted: "Start the boat." ”

Watching the warship slowly leave the shore, Lu Meng couldn't help but ask Zhuge Liang: "Kong Ming, do you say that He Qi can succeed?" ”

"It's better to be done. Ziming, do your best, obey the destiny of heaven, we have done our best, and the rest depends on God's will. You and I can start preparing. ”

"Well, that's the case, Kong Ming, take care."

"Ziming, you are the same."

Lu Meng and Zhuge Liang cherished each other, and then went their separate ways. Lü Meng is both civil and military, in order to boost morale, he served as the vanguard after He Qi succeeded, once He Qi set fire successfully, Lü Meng will lead his troops to rush to the front as soon as possible. And Zhuge Liang is a literati, although he usually practices martial arts, but it is just to strengthen his body, if he really goes into battle to kill the enemy, it is no different from giving people heads. So Lü Meng left the Shuai tent and rushed to the front line, and Zhuge Liang replaced Lü Meng to sit in the Chinese army and command the dispatch.

This time, the pressure from the outside was too great, resulting in the Sun and Liu families, who had always been at odds with each other, having to abandon their previous suspicions and cooperate sincerely. At least until Liu Xie's big threat is lifted, there will be no undeserved scorn between the Sun and Liu families.

He Qi set off for only half an hour, and Lü Meng and the generals of the navy also led their troops to shore one after another, rushing to the Han army camp across the river. All of them have only one purpose, to defeat the Han army and create a future for themselves. And He Qi, who was pinned on by everyone's high hopes, was standing at the bow of the boat at this time, and he could vaguely see the outline of the Han army's water village, and the second son He Jing came over and reported: "Father, it's ready." ”

“…… Jing'er, as soon as the battle starts, you immediately lead your subordinates to withdraw from the battle, avoid everyone and sneak back to the old mansion of Huiji. He Qi whispered to He Jingdao, who was waiting for the order.

"Father, you want your child to be a deserter?" He Jing looked at He Qi in astonishment and asked.

“…… I want to leave a trace of incense for the He family. Jing'er, after returning to the old house, immediately pack up and leave Jiangdong, wherever you go, stay incognito for my He family. ”

"Father, the child is not leaving."

"Bastard!"

He Qi was just about to scold the stupid son who was a criminal, but it was too late, and the deputy general hurried to ask whether to light the fire and start the action.

"You have to go!" He Qi glared at He Jing and emphasized his decision, and then rushed to the deputy general who came to ask for instructions: "Pass the order, act according to the original plan, and set fire to the ship." ”

"Father, let's ...... together"

"Get out!" He Qi kicked He Jing to the ground, and then ordered his guards to tie He Jing's rope, and blocked He Jing's mouth with a cloth, and then ordered the soldiers around him: "Protect the second son and let him return to Huiji safely." ”

"Take care, General." The leader of the pro-soldiers gave a fist salute to He Qi, and then carried He Jing to the boat with his companions.

At the same time, the men and horses of He Qi's subordinates also changed to small boats, and those big ships were all ignited, braving raging fire, with the help of the southeast wind, and rushed towards the Han army Dazhai.

As expected by Lu Meng, Zhuge Liang and others, when the Han army found that He Qi who had come to vote lit the warship and rushed towards Dazhai, it was too late to stop it, and thirty or forty fireships crashed into the Han army's water village, and the warships of the Han army dodged one after another, but because of the suddenness of the incident, they were in a hurry, and they made mistakes in the busy, and most of the warships collided together and couldn't move. The Han troops who had not boarded the ship retreated one after another, and the Han troops who were originally on the warship also had to jump ship to escape.

The warship used by He Qi to carry out the fire attack was already full of fire-causing things on the ship, and tonight it was a southeast wind, and the fire took advantage of the wind, burning more and more, and almost in a short time, the fire spread in the water village of the Han army. And Lü Meng and other generals of Sun Liu's water army also led their troops to appear, taking advantage of the chaos of the Han army to kill the north bank.

Capture the thief and capture the king first! After Lü Meng went ashore, he didn't go anywhere, so he took people straight to the direction of the handsome tent of the Han army's water village to kill the past, and no one could stop him along the way, and Lü Meng was also eager to capture the enemy, and did not waste time on the Han soldiers who fled in all directions, but when he entered the Han army's tent, the handsome tent was empty.

"Chase, chase!" Lu Meng stretched out his hand and touched the bed, which was still warm, knowing that Liu Xie had not run far yet, and immediately ordered the pursuit of the soldiers.

Liu Xie is the son of today, if he is captured alive, the person who caught him will have a great credit. Promotions and knighthoods are for sure! Under the temptation of huge interests, the soldiers of the Sun-Liu coalition army are like chicken blood, and they rush forward with one mind, just to be the first to meet today.

In order not to let the team get out of touch, when Lü Meng led the front army to pursue the Han army, Zhuge Liang also had to take the rear army that was originally left on the ship to go ashore to ensure that Lü Meng's back was safe.

But Lu Meng's back hasn't been in trouble yet, and Zhuge Liang's back is already in trouble. Not long after Zhuge Liang landed on the shore, Lu Xun and Tai Shici, who had been ordered to lead their troops to leave earlier, appeared, and eight new warships were arranged in a row, surrounded by various warships, blocking the water and back roads of the Sun-Liu coalition army.

Zhuge Liang originally wanted to lead his troops to turn around and repel the Han army that suddenly appeared, to ensure that his retreat was unimpeded. But the southeast wind, which had helped them before, became an obstacle for them at this time. At this time, the southeast wind on the river has not stopped, and the Sun and Liu coalition forces are going down the wind, and at this time they are going against the wind. Moreover, the new warships of the Han army were really sharp, and the catapults and slapsticks took turns to fight, which made Sun Liu Shuijun's head run away, and it was rare to even encounter the opportunity to get close, let alone repel the Han army and regain the back road.

Seeing that nothing could be done, Zhuge Liang made a quick decision and ordered to abandon the warship, and the whole army went ashore to join Lu Meng. In order to hinder the pursuit of the Han army, Zhuge Liang ordered the warships on the shore to be burned, and for a time the fire was raging, and the reflected river was as bright as day. However, Zhuge Liang's trick was really good, the fire was too fierce, in order to avoid being burned, Lu Xun and Tai Shici had to order the whole army to retreat and postpone the landing.

"What do you say? Say it again? Lu Meng, who was chasing after him with people, suspected that something was wrong with his ears after hearing the report of Zhuge Liang's messenger, and grabbed the collar of the visitor and asked. However, Lu Meng's fierce appearance cannot change the established facts.

The Han army cut off their way back, and Liu Xie, the son of heaven who had been pursued by them, had not found his whereabouts until now, which made Lu Meng's heart faintly give birth to a bad omen.

"The order went down, the whole army stopped, and all the departments immediately moved closer to our department." Lü Meng trusted Zhuge Liang's judgment and immediately ordered the whole army to move closer to him and stop the pursuit of the Han army.

By the time Zhuge Liang arrived to meet Lu Meng, the sky was already white, but Lu Meng was not interested in caring what time it was. After seeing Zhuge Liang, he couldn't care about being polite, and immediately asked, "Kong Ming, what happened?" How could the Han army cut off our back road? ”

"Ziming, don't worry, wait for me to come one by one." Zhuge Liang was quite calm, first comforted Lu Meng for a while, and then explained what happened to Lu Meng at night, and finally said his judgment.

“…… Kong Ming, now that the warship has been destroyed, in your opinion, where should we go? After listening to Zhuge Liang's explanation, Lu Meng asked Zhuge Liang in a deep voice.

"Now that the back road has been cut off, if our army wants to return to Jiangdong safely, the only way to move forward is to capture today, and you and I will have bargaining chips with the Han army."

“…… But Kong Ming, I led my troops to chase all night, and I didn't find any trace of today's son. Lu Meng smiled bitterly and said to Zhuge Liang.

"Ziming is not in a hurry, Liang has expected this situation, at the moment, our soldiers are sleepy and tired, and the water and rice have not entered, so we must first find a place to rest and recuperate, and then try to do anything else."

"Kong Ming is reasonable, I have ordered people to investigate everywhere before you came, but I didn't expect that this night's pursuit would be chased to the vicinity of Hanyang, why don't we lead our troops to Hanyang, where there should be grain and grass, maybe we can find a boat." Lu Meng said to Zhuge Liang when he heard this.

I didn't want Zhuge Liang to shake his head, "Ziming, since the Han army has premeditated this time, how can they be defenseless in Hanyang, maybe the Han army's ambush is waiting for you and me outside Hanyang City,"

"Then where does Kong Ming think we should go?"

"Go south, Liang remembers that there is a small county sixty miles south from here, where we can replenish some grain and grass."

“…… Okay, then it's up to you. ”

One moment he was chasing and killing his opponent with high spirits, and the next moment he fled in panic like a lost dog, which was too contrasting and incomprehensible to many soldiers of the Sun-Liu coalition army. The main general said that everyone had fallen for the tricks of the Han army, but the soldiers did not feel it. However, it is difficult to disobey the order, Lu Meng and Zhuge Liang have the same opinion, and those of them who are subordinates can only obey the order.

According to Zhuge Liang's opinion, the Sun-Liu coalition army gathered together, with Ding Feng and Li Yan as the vanguard, Jiang Qin and Xu Sheng as the rearguard, Lü Meng and Zhuge Liang in charge of the Chinese army, and the whole army retreated to the south.

Putting aside the upcoming victory, Ding Feng, Xu Sheng and others were very puzzled, and they were also quite dissatisfied with Zhuge Liang, the initiator of the withdrawal, but after being ambushed by the Han army, this dissatisfaction suddenly disappeared. I'm afraid that they really fell for the tricks of the Han army this time, and the Han soldiers who ambushed them didn't have the frustration of being defeated by the fire plan before, and they were completely like fighting with them.

If it was on the water, the Sun-Liu coalition army could still fight with the Han army, but at this time it was on land, and the Sun-Liu coalition army was just unable to resist for a while, fortunately Lü Meng arrived in time with the Chinese army to save Ding Feng and Li Yan, who were almost killed, but before Lü Meng and others could take a breath, Jiang Qin and Xu Sheng, who were in charge of the guard, were also in a hurry.

At this time, Ding Feng, Xu Sheng and others finally believed Zhuge Liang's previous judgment, they really fell for the trick, and at the same time there was a bit of luck, fortunately they listened to Zhuge Liang's advice before and stopped the pursuit of the Han army.

Ding Feng, Xu Sheng and others were secretly rejoicing, but Lu Meng and Zhuge Liang were not in the mood for luck at all. It was only at this time that the two of them realized that they had underestimated the resourcefulness of the Han army, and before the war, the two of them were resourceful and self-confident, thinking that they could play with the opponent between applause, but they did not expect that the opponent was not a fuel-efficient lamp, not only saw through their own strategy, but also put themselves in a predicament.

"Who saw through your plan?" Zhuge Liang was curious about this question, while Lu Meng was more pragmatic, "Kong Ming, it's more practical to think about how to get out of danger, and it's not too late to think about it when we are safe." ”
