Chapter 164: Counting is Counting

Seeing that the battle of the right army had come to an end, and the left army had entered a new stage of battle, Lu Su stepped forward and asked, "Governor, shouldn't we do something too?" ”

"It's time to do something. Let Huang Gai come over and give gifts! I hope that Cheng will be satisfied with this gift. Zhou Yu held the sword in one hand, shook the feather fan lightly in the other, and smiled with his chin bowed.

Huang Gai, who was hidden in the rear of the Chinese army, immediately waved his hand and led the eight small warships under his command to detour from the rear of the Chinese army after receiving the flag from the flag bearer. At the same time, the two warships that had been prepared in advance were ruthlessly ignited.

On the lit warship, the soldiers who had received the order in advance were like professional actors, and after a period of panic, they rushed into the river.

In order to succeed in this strategy, Zhou Yu was also ruthless. The value of the two warships is not low, but in order to dispel Cao Cao's doubts, this price still has to be paid.

"Prime Minister, look, there's a fire over there, and it seems that there are still warships approaching us!" Yang Yuhuan stretched out his Qianqian jade finger and said to Cao Cao.

"It's finally here. If they don't come, how will Lone play the next move? Luban No. 7, according to the instructions of Lone to you in advance, bring all the men, and wait for them to enter the covered area, and immediately fire ten thousand arrows. ”

"Okay! Uncle Cao, just take a look! Luban No. 7 ran excitedly to gather people, he was already idle.

"Prime Minister, why are you doing this? Judging from their actions and motives, they should have come to surrender, how can you kill them? Yang Yuhuan was puzzled by Cao Cao's approach, and he also had doubts in his heart.

"Yuhuan, even you think so, that means their strategy is very successful. But in fact, is Huang Gai really here to surrender? You must know that he is a veteran of the Three Dynasties, and his loyalty to Eastern Wu is the same as the loyalty of those old ministers in the court to the Han family.

An old minister like this, do you think he will fight back at this critical moment and surrender to Lonely?

The two armies are at war, and it is taboo for the commander and the commander to be at odds with the commander-in-chief. Although Zhou Yu is young, he will not make such a mistake. Although the bitter meat plan is good, it can't make Lone believe in his sincerity.

Then again, though. Zhou Yu is very willing to spend money. That's two ships! In order to let him enter this game alone, he is really willing! ”

"Prime Minister, according to what you say. Yuhuan felt that his deal was quite cost-effective. As long as you believe it, then his harvest will be a complete victory in the Battle of Tianjiang.

Instead of losing your ship in the battle between the two armies, it is better to send you two ships first. If you are small and big, you will be happier if you win.

Of course, all this must be based on the Prime Minister's belief. If you don't believe it, you will calculate, and they will be the ones who will lose. And once they suffer such losses, the morale of the army will immediately be unstable, which is a heavy blow to Zhou Yu, who believes in himself. ”

"Well said! Fortunately, Yuhuan is a lonely person, otherwise, lonely people will have a headache! Cao Cao smiled at him, and then set his eyes on the ship of Toucheng heading ahead.

Maybe it was unintentional, maybe it was the current war that grabbed Cao Cao's heart, he didn't notice that Yang Yuhuan's face was flushed because of his previous words.

Luban No. 7, who led 100 people to fight for the first time, was very excited. He didn't expect that he would have such a beautiful day.

In order to live up to Cao Cao's trust, his nerves were tense, and his eyes were opened to the maximum extent that he could open in his life.

"Ten meters, eight meters, six meters, four meters, two meters, etc., it's okay, oil and ignite, and release arrows!" Luban No. 7 gave the order in one go.

Trained archers light their arrows at a 45-degree angle, draw their bows and release them.

Dense flaming arrows shot wave after wave towards the fleet led by Huang Gai.

Seeing this, Huang Gai looked up to the sky and sighed, and then ordered to jump ship without hesitation.

"Boom, boom, boom...", the flames burst into flames, and eight small warships revealed their true identities under the watchful eye.

"Yi Xing! It's your turn. Don't let them keep getting closer! Cao Cao gave the second order.

"No! Starry Sky Chessboard! Yi Xing raised his hand and waved, and a square starry sky chessboard just included eight small flaming warships.

"Bang, bang, bang,..." black and white fell back and forth. Click, bang. Click, bang..."Eight small warships exploded under the blow of the chess pieces and sank into the boiling river.

A small number of the men and horses led by Huang Gai sank to the bottom of the river because of their slow reaction and slow swimming, along with the firelight.

"Ahh Cao thief! I am inseparable from you! Huang Gai roared.

"General, let's go, now is not the time to pause!" A personal soldier swam up to Huang Gai and admonished him.

"Hey!" Huang Gai slammed the water hatefully, and finally, reluctantly, swam towards the nearby Soochow warship.

With a "snap", the feather fan in his hand fell to the ground. Zhou Yu stared in that direction with an incredulous face. He didn't believe it, and he didn't want to believe it was true.

"The Grand Duke!" Seeing Zhou Yu's abnormal expression, Lu Su walked up to him and shouted.

"Zijing, this battle is difficult!" Zhou Yu closed his eyes and whispered in a complicated tone.

"Don't be discouraged, the battle has just begun, and it's hard to say who will win or lose. The key is that you must not fall, you are the commander in chief of our army, representing the will of our army. As long as the soldiers see you, they will have a fighting spirit and hope in their hearts. ”

"Zijing, if one day, I am gone, you will be the best candidate for the governor of the capital."

"Governor, what are you talking about! You are in the prime of your youth, how can you say such unlucky words! ”

"Hahaha..., sometimes you're funny. Zijing! Usually you don't have to put on the boss's face, isn't it good for you? ”

Lu Su was stunned for a moment, and then said with relief: "It's okay for the Metropolitan Governor to be fine, I will try my best to listen to your suggestions." ”

On the other side, Cao Cao waved his robe and said loudly: "Take advantage of the chaos and take the chestnuts in the fire." If you don't march now, when will you wait! Someone's coming! The trumpets sounded, the drums of war beat, and the whole army was dispatched! Priority attack the warship that rescued Huang Gai and his party! ”

"Woo woo...", "Knock knock..."

The army in the middle led by Cao Cao launched an all-out attack on the opposite side, and the breakthrough chosen was the direction in which Huang Gai and his party returned.

"Not good! Rush to help! After Gan Ning saw what was happening in the middle of the army and heard the trumpets and war drums from Cao's army, he immediately led his troops to rush there for reinforcements.

"Zidan, no matter how Zijian and I fight on weekdays, but now is a time of war, and we can't let outsiders look down on us. We rushed forward, landed ashore, and rescued Zijian. Cao Pi made this decision after thinking about it.

"No! I can tell which is more important and which is more important. Cao Zhen clenched his fists and took his life.
