Chapter 114: Lu Su also borrowed arrows
Liu Xun laughed and said: "Well, the son can be taught, Ben Taishou didn't sleep all night, now that there is a result, I won't accompany you, Ben Taishou will go first!" Let's tidy it up. After saying that, Liu Xun left very calmly, as if this was an inconspicuous trifle.
"Slow down, lord." The generals watched Liu Xun leave with admiration. The heart said, "The lord is the lord, and he is different from us." ”
。。。。。。
Across the river
Liu Xun is very hot, but on the other hand, Sun Quan's side is different, after all, they build their happiness on Sun Quan's pain. At this moment, Sun Quan just woke up and scolded: "Liu Xun dog thief, I will be inseparable from you." Zi Jing, tell me how many arrows we have lost, quickly say,"
Lu Su said with some embarrassment when he heard this: "The last general is incompetent, and I also ask the lord to calm his anger, our army lost more than 80,000 arrows in this battle." ”
Sun Quan couldn't help but feel a little sad after hearing this: "Zijing, what should we do if we lose so many arrows."
The bow and arrow come first in the battle on the river, which is very easy to understand, and the consequences of losing so many arrows today are unimaginable.
Lu Su said softly: "Lord, since Liu Xun can borrow arrows from a grass boat, we can also ......." ”
Zhou Yu said on the side: "Lord, what Zijing said is reasonable, although Liu Xun got the arrow, but this trick is too simple, we can also follow suit." Maybe you'll be able to catch some arrows, and even if you fail, it won't hurt. ”
When Sun Quan heard this, he sat down and said, "In that case, let's come back again." Zijing, you arrange it, just tonight, you will personally lead the troops, and do the same...... We will definitely get the lost arrows back."
"I won't let my lord down!" Lu Su replied solemnly
"Well, then let's go, I'll wait here for good news." Sun Quan said in a deep voice
"If" Lu Su clenched his fists and turned to leave.
The clock ticked by and it was late at night.
Jiangdong Army on the bank of the river
At this moment, Lu Su concocted the same method, the same hundred small boats full of scarecrows, the same boat with three people, and the same big drum, which was the same as Liu Xun's actions yesterday.
Lu Su, as the commander of the time, saw that his face was very calm and calm, and with his order, the Jiangdong Army's hundred-bow boat quietly sailed towards the opposite Lujiang Army.
After the hundred boats rowed through the center of the river, I saw that the fog was thick all around, and it was not much better than yesterday. At that moment, Lu Su's face tightened, and he ordered: "Order the soldiers to beat the drums and shout." The soldiers in the ship hid behind the straw men and must not come forward. ”
"If"
With the issuance of Lu Su's military order, the Jiangdong Army suddenly drummed and shouted to kill.
The situation was surprisingly similar to yesterday, and the soldiers of Liu Jun who were on guard on the riverbank were suddenly startled. Chen Qiang, the thousand-man general in charge of the vigil tonight, heard that the Jiangdong Army's war drums were beating and hurriedly reported to Liu Xun, "Lord, the big thing is not good, Sun Quan has led the army to attack!" They must have been confused by our straw boat borrowing arrows yesterday, and they couldn't bear this breath and wanted to fight us. ”
What Chen Qiang said was not impossible, but Liu Xun knew Sun Quan too well, it was impossible for him to have the courage to directly fight with him, and Liu Xun couldn't help but hesitate and said, "Have you seen the situation on the river clearly?" Could it be a bluff and want to learn from us to cheat the arrows? ”
Chen Qiang said: "The river is full of fog, where can you see clearly. Why don't you immediately lead someone to drive a boat to meet the enemy and check the reality and reality? ”
At this moment, Gan Ning, who rushed to hear the news, hurriedly said: "Lord, the art of war is cloudy, the real is false, and the virtual is real, I look at Sun Quan, this time maybe he is really here to attack, we must be on guard!" ”
Liu Xun thought about it, after all, he was afraid of 10,000, so he said: "You don't care so much for now." Hurry up, immediately gather your troops and horses and line up on the riverbank, and don't let the enemy rush ashore! Our army is now resting, and now it is underprepared, and the hasty battle is bound to be a huge loss. ”
"If" Chen Qiang heard this, and hurriedly hugged his fists and went down to prepare.
Seeing Chen Qiang leaving, Liu Xun couldn't help but settle down a little, and at this moment, a flash of lightning flashed in his mind. He remembered the battle of Chibi in later generations and the review of many netizens, the grass boat borrowed arrows, and he would have been able to release rockets if Cao Cao had done it. It doesn't matter if you're real or not, I'm sorry to borrow arrows if you're fake. The rocket can't be used after it is burned, and if you really dare to use a straw boat to borrow arrows, hehe, then I'm sorry. I'll let you swim back naked.
After figuring this out, Liu Xun immediately said: "Go and give the order, no matter what, shoot a thousand rockets for Ben Taishou first, and try to say."
"That's right! Wisely, we shoot rockets, and if the enemy really attacks and uses it to snipe the enemy, if it is fake, we will burn them to death, all of them! Zhang Brown and the others clapped their hands and said excitedly.
Everyone said that the lord is still wise, unlike our group of uneducated, it seems that we really have to study hard in the future.
The rumbling of drums and shouts continued to be heard on the dark surface of the river, and I don't know how many soldiers and horses were hidden in the darkness.
The torches on the north bank of the river reflected in the sky, and Liu Xunjun's soldiers hurriedly arrived and formed a formation on the shore to wait for the enemy.
Zhou Yu raised his glass in the big tent, looked at the fire on the north bank and said: "Lord, if Zijing succeeds in borrowing arrows this time, when Liu Xun's arrows are exhausted, it will be when he is defeated!" ”
"That's what Gong Jin said." Sun Quan couldn't help but say with some anticipation
With Liu Xun's order, on the north bank of the river, Liu Xunjun's 100 archers were in place again, and they lined up on the shore for a mile, with ten arrows for one person, all of which were rockets.
"Ready, bend the bow and ......." Several officers were giving orders one after another on the front.
So a hundred archers bent their bows and arrows.
Lu Su, who was on the small boat on the river, immediately looked happy after hearing the archery order issued by the officer, and said in his heart that he would definitely succeed this time.
He immediately ordered a hundred small boats to line up, parallel to the positions of the archers on the shore, in order to collect as many arrows as possible.
At this time, Liu Xun and his generals also came to the front line, and when he saw that the archers were already in place, he was impatient to explore the riverbank. After all, it is to shoot rockets, and if a large canopy flies out, it will have the effect of flares in later generations.
Liu Xun took over the command and ordered: "Ignition!" ”
"Ignition!"
"Ignition!" Officers passed orders.
"Ignition?" Jiangdong Jun couldn't help but look at each other!
Lu Su was a resourceful man in the end, he was the first to wake up, and then looked at the boatload of scarecrows, and his face suddenly turned green. Anxious, he hurriedly shouted: "It's a big thing, it's a rocket!" Everyone, turn around and go back. ”
But how could the ship turn so quickly, the Jiangdong Army had just heard the military order conveyed by Lu Su. At this moment, a hundred rockets on the shore were suddenly ignited.
"Shoot the arrows!"
"Shoot the arrows!"
Whew, the rocket flew towards the river with a whistle.
As the first was a tentative shot, a hundred rockets only hit seven or eight small boats, but they immediately ignited the scarecrows on them, and thus became fireboats, and the rest of the boats were immediately revealed in the firelight.
"Retreat, retreat!" Facing the rocket on this straw boat, Jiangdong Jun suddenly panicked.
Lu Su was a decisive person after all, and said loudly: "It's too late, the ship is on fire, Liu Jun can naturally see our situation clearly on the shore, the next wave of rockets will soon come one after another, if you want to live, hurry up and jump off the ship before the ship is on fire and escape!" ”
As his words fell, Lu Su was very decisive, and he was the first to jump into the water when he heard a plop.
The other Jiangdong troops couldn't help but hesitate for a moment.......
"Shoot the arrows!"
Sure enough, as Lu Su expected, the second round of rockets immediately ignited ninety percent of the boats.
Originally, there would not have been such a high hit rate, but because the Jiangdong Army had previously made the ships stand parallel to Liu Xunjun's archers in order to facilitate the collection of arrows, this made the rocket's offensive amazing! And the fire shines brightly. The distribution of boats on the river is unobstructed.
The fire on the boat was raging, and his face hurt, Jiang Dongjun no longer hesitated, and hurriedly followed Lu Su into the water.
"Wow!"
"Help!"
Plop, plop.
The Jiangdong army on the boat, many hesitant Jiangdong soldiers did not jump into the water in time, and their clothes were quickly ignited at this moment, they couldn't help but let out a cold sweat, and immediately jumped into the water to take refuge, and the others also jumped into the river to escape.
Liu Jun watched more than 100 ships full of scarecrows on the river in front of him catch fire, and the scene was extremely spectacular.
Liu Xun's soldiers, who were lined up on the shore to wait for the enemy, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, it was obvious that this time it was the enemy who was bluffing and wanted to learn from the master to borrow arrows. It's a pity that the lord is wise and powerful, and a burst of rockets passed, and they immediately lost their armor.
"Shoot the arrows, release the arrows, burn them all to me, burn them all!" Chen Qiang shouted
......Woooo
Gan Ning was shocked when he saw the fire of the archers, and hurriedly said: "General Chen, don't release arrows anymore, the ships on the river are basically on fire, let's not waste arrows!" ”
Chen Qiang fixed his eyes and saw that the situation was really like this, so he couldn't help but turn red and hurriedly ordered to stop firing arrows.
When he ordered to stop, it was too late, and one man had only ten arrows, and in a few breaths he had shot them cleanly. However, it is also profitable to be able to exchange a thousand arrows for the straw boat on the opposite side, and more importantly, this time it has improved the morale of the army. Looking at the smiles on the faces of the soldiers, Liu Xun knew that this wave made a lot of money.
Speaking of the South Shore.
Sun Quan listened to the drums coming from the river, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, but Zhou Yu was not very optimistic, everything before was just to comfort Sun Quan, and now with the sound of the drums, Zhou Yu was very worried in his heart, the two had different mentalities, in order to hide the tension in their hearts, the two kept raising their glasses and drinking, so as to relieve the anxiety of waiting.
"Lord, count the time, I think Zijing has already started." Zhou Yu raised his glass again and said.
Sun Quan raised his glass in response with some uneasiness and said, "That's the best." ”
