Chapter 532 - Only the East Wind is owed
When the chief heard this, he was also a little flustered, since he was Zhou Yu's honored guest, he was so sluggish, how could he afford a small chief, and hurriedly ordered his sergeants to loosen Pang Tong's bonds, and accompanied him repeatedly.
Zhuge Liang shook the goose feather fan lightly and said with a smile: "Brother Shiyuan, where did you come from, how did you become such a wolf?" ā
Fu dragon and phoenix chicks, in Jingxiang that is more than wings and two flying, famous, Zhuge Liang and Pang De company Ma Hui have a good relationship, between teachers and friends, Pang Tong is only two or three years older than Zhuge Liang, and Pang Tong is naturally an equal relationship, too close, but in recent years, Pang Tong has traveled abroad, and the two have not met much. However, the relationship between the two has always been very good, and Zhuge Liang saw that Pang Tong was so wolf-like, so he naturally couldn't help but make jokes.
Pang Tong shook off the rope in his hand and glared at the chief fiercely, but in the face of the chief of the chief's sincere apology, Pang Tong was so proud of his identity as a celebrity and scholar that he was not easy to attack, and said to Zhuge Liang: "Brother Kong Mingxian, it's hard to say." Pang Tong roughly talked about his situation in the Jing military camp, how to present a series of schemes to Liu Ze, and how the golden cicada escaped from its shell, etc., and briefly described it.
Kong Ming smiled and said: "I heard that Liu Ze made a cocoon and locked all the warships together, such a trick, I thought it must be from Shi Yuan's hand, and sure enough." ā
Pang Tong was a little colorful, looking around, the camp of Dongwu is also quite huge, Pang Tong has just arrived, naturally he can't know the way, and asked: "Where is the camp of Zhou Yudu?" ā
Zhuge Liang said: "Brother Shiyuan has served as the governor of Zhou, but I am afraid it will not be today." ā
Pang Tong had a slightly disappointed look on his face. He said, "Could it be that Governor Zhou is not in the camp today?" ā
Zhuge Liang said: "Zhou Dudu is in the camp, but just now, Du Du suddenly fell ill, fainted on the ground, and has been carried back to the camp by everyone, and is being treated at the moment, even if he wakes up, the illness has not healed, and it must be difficult to see guests." ā
Pang Tongqi said: "Zhou Dudu is young and strong, and his blood is strong. How can I get sick suddenly? ā
Zhuge Liang glanced left and right. Said: "This is not the place to talk, Brother Shiyuan will not see the governor today, but he can rest in his camp first, and you and I have not seen each other for many days." It's just the right time to talk about the wine. ā
Pang Tong was unfamiliar with life in the Dongwu camp. Except for Zhou Yu. is only familiar with Zhuge Liang, Zhou Yu is unconscious, and Pang Tong is anxious to see it. had to accompany Zhuge Liang to the camp tent.
Zhuge Liang made people drink, entertained Pang Tong, and told each other about their feelings.
Pang Tong was worried, naturally he didn't have any leisure and Zhuge Liangla's homely routine, and after three drinks, he asked about Zhou Yu's condition again.
Zhuge Liang put down his wine glass, and said with a smile: "There are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, people have good and bad luck, Zhou Du is in charge of all opportunities, worried about military affairs, and becomes sick from hard work, how not to get sick?" ā
Pang Tong said in surprise: "It is true that Zhou Dudu is busy with military affairs, but the shape in front of him is very good, Huang Gai used bitter meat tricks, Kan Ze offered a book of fraud, plus a certain serial plan, Liu Ze was completely unprepared, just a big fire, you can burn the two villages of Wulin and water and drought cleanly, seeing that the great work is about to be completed, what else does Zhou Dudu have to worry about?" ā
Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "Although everything is ready, there is still one thing missing. ā
Pang Tong was slightly stunned, and then suddenly realized: "Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed!" ā
Zhuge Liang nodded and said: "The one who is worried about the governor of Zhou, it is probably this east wind, this is a cold winter, the northwest wind is always strong, how can you get the southeast wind?" Even if Huang Gai's plan to surrender was successful, and he wanted to burn Chibi, without the help of the southeast wind, Jiangdong was afraid that he did not burn the enemy, but burned himself first. ā
Pang Tong smiled and said, "This matter is difficult to defeat everyone, is it difficult to fail the virtuous brother?" The virtuous brother knows the yin and yang and breaks the sky to know the wind and the rain, the southeast wind, what is the difficulty, the winter solstice is a yang, when it comes and goes, there will be a southeast wind, why don't the virtuous brothers take this as the first credit? ā
Zhuge Liang didn't answer him, he was silent for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Shiyuan has stayed in Liu Ze's camp for a few days, and he has also had a lot of contact with Liu Ze, in your opinion, how is Liu Ze a person?" ā
Pang Tong also restrained his smile and said in a deep voice: "Liu Ze is calm and capable, and he acts decisively, and he can also be called a hegemon. ā
Zhuge Liang took an arrow and handed it to Pang Tong, but he didn't speak.
"What do you mean, Brother Xian?" Pang Tong didn't know what to do, and he was surprised.
Zhuge Liang said: "Brother Shiyuan, do you know about my cĒo boat borrowing arrows?" ā
Pang Tong nodded and praised: "In the northern military camp, I have also heard that the virtuous brother has made a clever move and earned more than 100,000 arrows from the Jing army. ā
Zhuge Liang was not happy, his face was much gloomy, and he sighed lightly: "This arrow was found in 100,000 arrows, there are more than ten in total, I have tried it, as long as you use fire to ignite the lead below, this arrow will deflagrate, its flame can reach several feet, just one such arrow, you can burn the entire grass boat." It's a good thing that these rockets haven't been ignited, otherwise you and I wouldn't have had some confrontation today. ā
Pang Tong seemed to have an understanding and said: "I was in the Jing military camp, and I also heard that the first army under the command of Liu Ze had a rocket battalion, which was specialized in launching rockets, and hundreds of rockets were fired at once, and everything was destroyed, which was very domineering. Since this kind of rocket was found on the grass boat, the rocket battalion must have been transferred to the riverside at that time, but I wonder why these arrows were not ignited, and it was Liu Ze's subordinates who showed mercy? Or was the rocket battalion negligent for a moment and forgot to ignite the lead? ā
Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly and said, "Since it is Liu Ze's exclusive arrow camp, how can he be so negligent?" Liu Ze's scheming is far deeper than what you and I know and see. Cai Zhang was secretly divided, the grass boat borrowed arrows to get 100,000 arrows, Huang Gai was tortured and tortured in the camp, Kan Ze crossed the river to offer a letter of fraudulent surrender, Jiangdong can be described as full of tricks, and his magic powers are fully revealed, but Liu Ze has always been hidden and unmoved, which is very different from Liu Ze's consistent style. It's too unusual, there is often a bigger storm in the calm, if I am not bad, all the schemes of the Jiangdong side have not escaped Liu Ze's eyes, Liu Ze plans and then acts, this is the most terrifying. ā
Pang Tong said with a little doubt: "If Liu Ze is suspicious, he will never adopt the serial plan I offered, lock all the warships together, as long as there is a fire, thousands of ships will be reduced to nothing, such a heavy price, how can Liu Ze bear it?" I think that although Liu Ze is thoughtful and resourceful, but a wise man has a thousand thoughts, and he will definitely make a mistake, this time maybe he is really negligent, and if God wants to give it to Zhou Lang, I am afraid that no one can stop him. ā
Zhuge Liang sighed and said: "This is also what I can't figure out, the Jingzhou Navy has 70,000 people, nearly 10,000 large and small warships, after Cai Mao's death, the naval power fell into the hands of Liu Ze, no matter what, presumably Liu Ze can't abandon it lightly." But looking at his past achievements, he will never be so clumsy, if Liu Zezhen has no conspiracy, I will never believe it! ā
Pang Tong was silent for a moment and said, "Then according to the intention of Brother Kong Ming, what is the way to crack it?" ā
Zhuge Liang's eyes flashed, and he said: "Avoid its edge, the navy is still confronting the Jing army in Chibi, braking quietly, watching its changes, the enemy does not move, I will not move, if the enemy comes to attack, with the strength of the Jiang army and the navy, it will be broken." In addition, he sent infantry to attack Baqiu, sweep away the remnants of the Jing army on the south bank of the Yangtze River, and then annex Wuling, Lingling, Changsha, Guiyang and other four counties of Jingnan, and divide the river to rule. Liu Ze will not be able to stand for a long time in Chibi, and he will return to Xiangyang Jiangling after no hope of crossing the river, and our army only needs to wait for the incident in the north, all the way out of Baqiu, all the way out of Hefei, all the way out of Guangling, and the three armies will come out together, so why worry about the world? ā
"Divide the river and rule?" Pang Tong's eyes lit up, and he said: "The virtuous brother really has a splendid mind and a good belly, such a clever plan, why not make it clear to Zhou Dudu?" ā
Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly and said: "I have already been given to Wu Hou for this strategy, but I disagree with the governor of Zhou, and I will not use it. When Brother Shiyuan sees Zhou Dudu tomorrow, he might as well show his strength and persuade the Dudu to give up the plan to compete for the red cliff, and Xu Tu Jiangnan half of the wall, so that he can be invincible. ā
Pang Tong nodded and said, "Okay, I'll definitely try to say it tomorrow." ā
Zhuge Liang thanked him, personally poured a full wine glass for Pang Tong, and the two drank until midnight when they were slightly drunk, and slept together.
In the early morning of the next day, Zhuge Liang sent someone to visit Zhou Yu's condition, and came back to report that Zhou Yu had woken up and his condition had improved greatly. Pang Tong immediately went to the Shuai tent to meet him. After the transmission, Zhou Yu's permission was soon obtained, and the Chinese army led Pang Tong directly to Zhou Yu's bed.
As soon as Pang Tong entered the tent, he saw Zhou Yu half of his body, although his face was pale and terrifying, but his eyes flashed with brilliance, and he shouted eagerly: "Is it Shiyuan?" Shiyuan is back? ā
Pang Tong stepped forward, looking at Zhou Yu's haggard appearance, he couldn't help but burst into tears, and said in a choked voice: "I haven't seen the governor for a long time, but I didn't expect the governor to be like this, and I was shocked." ā
Zhou Yu took Pang Tong's hand, stretched his face and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm just feeling the wind and cold, and I'll be able to raise it for a few days." Shiyuan is in Jiangbei, but he has made a great meritorious service, this series of schemes makes it wonderful, and I will definitely ask Wu Hou for Shiyuan in the future. ā
Pang Tong said: "Unification is just to do some thin effort, if you want to win Liu Ze, you need to be the governor to plan a clever array, if you break Liu Ze, the governor should be the first merit, and the unification of everyone is just the icing on the cake." ā
Zhou Yu's expression darkened, and he let out a long sigh, and said: "Do your best, listen to the destiny of heaven, God will not bless me, what can I do?" ā
Pang Tong smiled and said: "Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed, and the governor is sick, I am afraid that there is no southeast wind to break the enemy, so I am depressed and sick." ā
Zhou Yu was taken aback, and said with a happy face: "Shiyuan knows the source of my illness, is there a way to solve it?" (To be continued......)
