Chapter 14: The Great War Is Coming

After Kuai Yue left, he didn't go back to the house to get the so-called family letter, Cai Mao was still stupidly waiting at home, waiting for death at home! Kuai Yue immediately went to Cao Cao's mansion and told him that Cai Mao was going to kill you. When Cao Cao heard this, his face immediately changed, no wonder Cai Mao's expression was different these days, it turned out that he wanted to assassinate me, so Cao Cao immediately sent troops to prepare to arrest Cai Mao.www.biquge.info

Cai Mao was finally arrested by Cao Cao, and when Cao Bing entered his mansion, he realized that he had been betrayed by Kuai Yue, but he never understood that Kuai Yue was going to betray him. When he was escorted down to Cao Cao, he also loudly questioned why Kuai Yue betrayed him. Kuai Yue told him, if you conspire with you and succeed in assassinating the prime minister, his subordinates will be like wolves and tigers, and An can let me go; The assassination failed, and there is no place to be buried, and whether it is successful or not, it will affect the family, if it is you, what should you do. After Kuai Yue finished speaking, Cai Mao hated it and responded: "If you don't help me, just say it, and you don't have to report me." This is Cao Cao laughed and said: "Do you think you have done recently, I really don't know anything?" Someone came to you some time ago, who is this person? And you sent someone to Qingzhou, what do you want to do? At this time, Cai Mao's face collapsed, and it turned out that Cao Cao knew everything. Cai Mao knew that he would definitely die, scolded Cao Cao for being a traitor, and was finally secretly executed by Cao Cao.

Time flies, Cao Jun's sailor drill is coming to an end, and the construction of the five-tooth ship is nearing the end, seeing that the big war is coming, Chen Jin is not in a hurry and takes Zhuge Liang out for a walk, which is called the combination of work and rest, but in fact, he doesn't want Zhuge Liang to be too tired. Zhuge Liang had no choice but to come out and walk with Chen Jin. As soon as Zhuge Liang came out, looking at the weather, he said that there should be fog, and it was better to go back early. As soon as Chen Jin heard that there was a heavy fog, he immediately became energetic. The straw boat borrows arrows, it is familiar! It's just a pity, the real hero of the grass boat borrowing arrows is not Zhuge Liang, but Sun Quan, the Great Emperor of Eastern Wu, this incident did not happen before the Battle of Chibi, but happened five years after the Battle of Chibi. In this case, why not let Zhuge Liang try, since Sun Quan can do it, Zhuge Liang will naturally be even more capable. This battle of Chibi is about to start, and if you don't try, you won't have a chance. So Chen Jin told Zhuge Liang his thoughts, Zhuge Liang heard it, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, this method is feasible, Zhuge Liang also patted Chen Jin's horse, and then hurried away, preparing things to be implemented. Sure enough, on the second day, less than five watches, Zhuge Liang brought back 100,000 arrows, and for a time the grass boat borrowed arrows was rumored to be a good story, and the wisdom of Zhuge was worthy of its name.

Cao Cao was deceived by Zhuge Liang to obtain 100,000 arrows, his heart was furious, and he felt that his face was gloomy, since the battle of Guandu, he lived in the Central Plains, coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and was intimidating, how could he have suffered such a big loss. So he immediately sent an order, immediately summoned the civil and military, and asked everyone how to get back face, otherwise he really couldn't swallow this breath in his heart. At this time, Cao Cao couldn't help but think of Fengxiao, if Fengxiao was here, there would be no shame today. And now that Guo Jia is not there, Cheng Yu temporarily takes his place, so everyone's eyes are looking at Cheng Yu.

Speaking of Cheng Yu, a ruthless person, there was a shortage of food in Gunzhou back then, and Cheng Yu couldn't make up enough military food for three days to find the entire county, at that time, the war with Lu Bu was in full swing, Cheng Yu actually used human flesh to dry, mixed with food, used as military food, unscrupulous means to achieve the goal, and his ruthlessness can be seen. Needless to say, when he was one of the world's apex strategists, he was called Cao Cao's five masterminds with Xun Yu, Xun Yu, Guo Jia, and Jia Xu, and Cheng Yu was loyal to Cao Cao.

Cheng Yu saw that everyone was looking at him, and he knew that it was time for him to behave, so he came out and said: "Now our army is blocked by the danger of the river, and the fog has been thick in the past few days, and the enemy is not good for me. The prime minister can order the soldiers to install the trebuchet on the boat, and when the enemy ship is within the attack range, the boat can stop, and throw firearms at the enemy, and also need to send another ship to ambush, with more bows and arrows, if the enemy kills, shoot with arrows, if the enemy also uses the trebuch, then our army needs to retreat immediately. ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he felt that this plan was feasible and immediately sent Zhang Liao to implement it. Zhang Liao received the order and went to prepare. After making proper preparations, Zhang Liao took advantage of the fog and led the Jingzhou soldiers to drive in the direction of Eastern Wu

。 Zhang Liao had sent people to find out the approximate location of the Eastern Wu warship, and after arriving at the predetermined position, he threw firearms, and suddenly vaguely saw the flames in front of him, and the stone-throwing ships were heavier, so Zhang Liao ordered them to leave first, and then the small boat carrying the archers slowly retreated. After a while, shouts were heard, and a moment later the sound of arrows falling into the water was heard, followed by the sound of large stones falling into the water. Zhang Liao hurriedly ordered the bow and arrow boat to return as quickly as possible to report today's battle situation to Cao Cao and others, but because the fog was too heavy, the real situation was not very well known. After listening to this, Cheng Yu sighed: "Zhou Yu is also very human." According to Cheng Yu's thinking, he should have seen that after Zhou Yu saw the warship on fire, he should have sent someone to investigate the situation while fighting the fire, and then was shot dead. Zhou Yu simply said, first the archers came to shoot, and then the stone throwers followed. But fortunately, Zhang Liao was worthy of the head of the five good generals, and the whole army returned safely.

On Zhou Yu's side, more than ten small boats were burned, and large ships had varying degrees of burns, which could still be used as long as they were repaired. Zhou Yu knew that this was Cao Cao's revenge on Zhuge Liang for borrowing arrows from the grass boat, Zhou Yu couldn't help but want to draw a circle and curse Cao Cao, it was not me who borrowed arrows from the grass boat, what are you burning my boat for, you have the ability to burn Liu Bei and them! But now Liu Bei is a poor bastard, the soldier borrowed Sun Quan, the grain and grass borrowed Sun Quan, and the warship was also borrowed by Sun Quan, of course, after all, it is now the period of joint resistance to Cao, and it is time to support the teammates, but after the battle, you will not pay it back.

After these two battles, the two sides have never had much conflict or played exciting games, basically all kinds of temptations. In this way, in various temptations, November quietly came, two of the five-tooth ships designed by Chen Jin have been manufactured, and the rest are still being manufactured and are about to be completed, but it is too late in time, because Zhou Yu came with news that the decisive battle is coming, and the matter is ready, and the moment of life and death is in the present day.

"Is the Battle of Red Cliffs about to begin?" Chen Jin muttered.
