Chapter 10 Arson

Qi Yu Prime Minister, the materials used in the arms attack have been prepared to stop, and all ships have been released, just waiting for the city to give an order, you can go straight to the south bank of the river! Cao Ren told Cao ''.

Good! Cao 'Cao' nodded and smiled: There are two good things today, the first is that Jiangdong old minister Huang Gai will come to surrender, and the second is that the fire attack equipment has been prepared, so you will listen to the order! The generals of Cao Ying stood with their hands bowed. Cao '' and 'pulled' out his arms and ordered the arrow to begin to lay out the battle strategy.

Everything seems to be proceeding in an orderly manner according to Cao's plan. Just after the unitary, the northwest wind that had been blowing for three days suddenly stopped, and the handsome flag fluttering high hung down weakly. No one noticed this little problem.

Ma Tan's heart tightened: Look, the northwest wind has stopped!

Everyone looked up at the sky, the dark night sky, a bright moon hanging, and the faint moonlight 'shone' on the object, all glowing with white light. Li Hui asked: The southeast wind is coming?

Ma Yan nodded: Yes, the northwest wind suddenly stopped, it was the signal that the southeast wind was coming, Zhuge Liang was really powerful, and he could calculate that it was tonight, it was really a god.

The battle flag fluttered again, this time not to the southeast, but to the northwest in the direction that the tail of the flag pointed. The battle flag flew higher and higher, and soon it was ninety degrees to the flagpole. There was cheering in the coalition camp.

Offensive! Zhou Yu gave an order. Huang Gai's warship was the first to sail out, full of sails, and under the strong southeast wind, the brisk warship sailed quickly towards the north bank of the river like an arrow from Xuan.

Hahaha\\ Good wind! Zhang Hong laughed: This Zhuge Liang is really a god, and he really borrowed the southeast wind.

Zhou Yu frowned, and immediately untied his sword: Where are Ding Feng and Xu Sheng! Order the two of you to rush to Nanping Mountain immediately with swords, and behead Zhuge Liang immediately without asking whether he is right or wrong, this person must not be left to Liu Bei!

Cao 'Cao' is rewarding the three armies in the tent, preparing for tomorrow's battle. 'Mao' Jue suddenly broke in and said to Cao: Prime Minister, there are more than 20 boats on the river, it should be Huang Gai who is here!

Good! Cao 'Cao' Daxi: Everyone, how about going to meet General Huang Gai together?

Huang Gai's warship ran faster and faster, skimming over the water surface one after another. I can already see Cao's '' water village through the moonlight. Huang Gai shouted: Brothers, get ready!

The sergeants took out the fuel tank from the cabin, and a soldier with a torch in his hand, ready to light the fuel tank at any time, threw it at the Cao army's warship. Cao 'Cao' looked at the more than 20 small boats lined up, and said with a smile: Zhou Yu'er first ascended to the position of governor, but he was still too young and not good at winning people's hearts.

Prime minister! Xun Youdao: This thing doesn't seem right!

Sir think that's not right? Cao '' asked.

Xun Youdao: Huang Gai's letter said that he should be led by a grain carrier, how can it be so brisk, and besides, how can everyone light a torch on the grain carrier, isn't it worried about burning grain and grass? Yes! Xun You was suddenly surprised: Prime Minister, it's not right, there is fraud in this matter! The wind has changed!

Cao Jun and the others felt that it was wrong, it was still a northwest wind just now, and now it has become a southeast wind. Xun You shouted loudly: Quick, send a boat out to stop Huang Gai, it's here to burn our warship!

Cao 'Cao' also realized the danger and hurriedly shouted: Stop Huang Gai! Stop Huang Gai!

As he spoke, Huang Gai's warship had approached. The flaming oil tanks were thrown onto the Cao army warship one by one. The warship that caught fire was 'chaotic' and became a pot of porridge. When the clay pot broke, the oil that flowed out of the pot carried the flames everywhere, and the good ones flowed into the water along the gaps between the boats. The bad ones got into the cabin and ignited the materials that had just been distributed for setting fires, and in an instant, all the Cao army warships on the outermost part of the water village were enveloped in flames.

Shoot the arrows! Shoot the arrows! Yu Ban commanded the warships that had not yet burned to fire arrows at Huang Gai.

Huang Gai led the dead soldiers to hold a big shield in their hands, blocking the soldiers who threw the oil cans behind, and kept urging them to throw faster. The fire burned more and more, Xun Yu said: Prime Minister, the fire is difficult to control, hurry up and order someone to untie the warship and flee for their lives!

Right! Right! Untie the ship! Cao '' a loud command.

When the arm-thick iron chains were connected, hundreds of soldiers took a lot of effort to assemble them, and it was impossible to say that they could be untied if they were unraveled. The fire borrowed the wind, and the wind helped the fire, and only one warship burned, and the other warships tied to it were soon ignited, and the fire-burning thing placed in the cabin became a life-saving charm. The flames ruthlessly devoured the Cao army warship, and also devoured the lives of the Cao soldiers.

It's cruel! Li Hui sighed.

Gan Ning asked: Lord, don't you attack it?

Li Hui smiled: The fire is so big, what should we do if it burns? Wait, when the fire is extinguished, when will we go up again!

Yes! Wen Chou said: By that time, the yellow 'flower' vegetables will be cold!

Zhou Yu was overjoyed when he saw Huang Gai's success: Drumming, charge! The 30,000 sailors in Jiangdong shouted and sailed straight to Jiangbei.

Cao's main ship had also caught fire, but it was not connected to any of the warships, but was thrown into two oil tanks, which were quickly extinguished. Looking at the soldiers who were struggling in the fire, Cao '' that called a heartache. Some of the soldiers had already been burned to death, but the flames still refused to let go, and the corpses burned violently. Some soldiers jumped into the biting water with flames all over them, hoping that the water would extinguish the flames, forgetting that they couldn't swim at all.

Zhou Yu's 30,000 sailors kept firing arrows, setting fire to those warships that had not yet been ignited, or 'shooting' to death those soldiers who were struggling in the river.

Yu Ban knelt at Cao's feet: Prime Minister, let's go! If you don't leave, Zhou Yu will come!

\u201 The water army, it's the nature that has harmed you! Cao '' shed tears for the first time.

Several soldiers carried Cao Cao', and Yu Ban led his troops to protect a Wenchen on a small boat and sailed towards the river.

The raging fire illuminated the river as if it were daylight, and the roasters could not approach it at all. Zhou Yu looked at everything in front of him and said with emotion: \u201 and others are unwilling to go on the Northern Expedition, why should Cao '' go south, this tragic death of the good men are all warriors of the Han Dynasty!

The Governor is not emotional! All this was done by the thief, so what do you have to do? Zhang Hong said calmly.

Under the action of the strong wind, the burning warship took off its anchor rope and floated along the river to the north bank, and it was very crazy to set fire to the dock and Cao Jun's dry village. The first to be frightened, of course, were the military horses. When had they seen such flames, kicking and biting each other in the stables, breaking the reins? Tens of thousands of military horses were left unattended, galloping wildly among the army, and I don't know how many of them did not die in the fire or in the water, but died under the hooves of their own horses.

Guo Jia saw that the fire was weakening, and said to Li Hui: Lord, it's time for us to appear!
