Chapter 7: Straw Boat Borrowing Arrows
After leaving Zhuge Liang's camp, Li Gui and Qin Ruguan found a place by the river and began to wait.
During this period, Li Gui did not respond to many questions raised by Qin Ruguan.
There is no way, he is really a little afraid of this woman: although she has a kind personality and is jealous and hateful, her head is too straight, and Li Gui does not dare to reveal too much information.
"Anyway, as long as we can make sure that she gets the benefit in the end, then it's okay." Li Gui thought to himself.
However, the more he didn't reveal any information, the more curious Qin Ruguan became about him, and she couldn't wait to use her Guan knife to take Li Gui's little head out and see what secrets were hidden inside.
Fortunately, before she could put it into practice, the Lord came.
The sun sank in the west, and then the moon was thin and the stars were thin, Zhuge Liang appeared on time, followed by a middle-aged man in a placket suit, Li Gui could see at a glance, it must be Lu Su Lu Zijing.
Seeing these two people appear, Li Gui thought about it, stood up straight, took a shortcut in his right hand and quickly raised it, and naturally straightened his five fingers together, giving them a modern military salute.
Seeing this, Zhuge Liang and Lu Su were stunned, looked at Li Gui with strange eyes, and then boarded the grass boat that was slowly sailing over.
Li Gui and Qin Ruguan also followed.
waited for the grass boat, and Li Gui found that there was no one on it except for the two of them, Zhuge Liang and Lu Su.
"And how did the ship just get here?" He couldn't help but think curiously.
However, before he could figure it out, he heard Lu Su ask first: "Mr. Kong Ming, what do you mean by calling me here?" ”
Mr. Kong Ming replied calmly: "I specially invite Zijing to go and get arrows together." ”
When Lu Su heard this, he was stunned and asked suspiciously, "Where to get the arrow?" ”
Mr. Kong Ming replied calmly: "Zijing, don't ask more, you'll know when you arrive." ”
After speaking, Mr. Kong Ming waved his feather fan, and a cool breeze came from the shore, blowing the sails of the straw boat whirring, pushing them and their group to slowly sail towards the north shore.
At this time, Li Gui understood how this "unmanned ship" came over.
"It's ...... Wind attributes? It's amazing! He couldn't help but think to himself.
At this time when he was thinking, Mr. Kong Ming had already walked straight into the cabin and sat down to rest.
Lu Su stood anxiously at the bow of the boat for a long time, and when he saw that no other boat was approaching, he wrapped himself in his fine clothes and walked in.
When he sat in the cabin, Lu Su was still silent, leaving only Mr. Kong Ming to drink and drink by himself, talk and be leisurely.
Li Gui stood at the bow of the boat, watching the boat continue to drive towards the north shore, and after a while, he arrived at the center of the river.
Jiang Xin's wind was colder, and when the cold wind hit, he sneezed heavily.
There was a brief silence in the cabin, and after a while, Mr. Kong Ming's voice came: "It's cold outside, and we still have some time before we reach our destination." Two little friends, you might as well come and sit in the cabin to warm up and warm up. ”
Hearing this, Li Gui hurriedly responded "Okay", and without waiting for Qin Ruguan to react, he bowed down and entered the cabin.
Seeing the two Zhuge Liang and Lu Su, Li Gui did not kneel and bow as shown on TV, but raised his hand directly, and chose to salute with a raised hand.
It stands to reason that this is not in line with the etiquette of superiority and inferiority, but Mr. Kong Ming didn't mind, he smiled, motioned for him to sit down with Qin Ruguan, who came in later, and asked Li Gui:
"Little friend, your salutation is very interesting, although I have never seen it. However, although this action seems simple, it faintly reflects a hint of solemnity, what does it mean? ”
This is a gesture of raising one's hand and paying attention, and it is generally used in the military to show recognition of the leader's orders...... Well, it's a custom in our hometown. Li Gui thought about it and replied thoughtfully.
"Raise your hands and look at it, is it a salute in the army? This is interesting......" Zhuge Liang commented with a smile, but he didn't ask any more, just poured a cup of hot wine for Li Gui, and continued to raise the wine to the guests, persuading Lu Su to drink more.
The grass boats moved forward slowly, accompanied only by the breeze on the river and the waning moon in the mountains.
......
......
But he said that in the camp on the other side of the river, Cao Cao woke up on the couch.
Suspicious, he quickly sat up, called Xu Chu outside the door in, and asked, "Who is making noise outside?" ”
Hearing the prime minister's question, Xu Chu hurriedly sent someone out to check, and after a short time, he came back to report: "Report to the lord, I heard that there is an enemy warship by the river, and it is approaching our naval camp." ”
Hearing this, Cao Cao was immediately shocked, and after ordering Xu Chu to call all the civil ministers and military generals up, he didn't even have time to put on his armor, and hurried to the wall on the shore in civilian clothes.
Due to the heavy fog on the river and the lack of moonlight, Cao Cao looked south and could only see countless warships, which were densely packed with soldiers.
"Not good! This is a thief army to attack at night! ”
Seeing this, he hurriedly ordered the archers to shoot arrows, and under his order, the soldiers who had already prepared drew their bows, and thousands of feathered arrows were shot at the enemy ships.
However, immediately after, a scene that shocked Cao Cao even more appeared, he only saw that the thousands of feather arrows seemed to be swallowed up by the night, and there was no sound at all, and the soldiers on the enemy ship opposite did not have anything to do.
"What kind of ability is this?"
Cao Cao knew that there were abilities in this world, and even he himself had an ability called [Void and Reality], which could create illusions and devour enemies.
Therefore, he did not suspect him, but thought that the enemy was using some ability that he did not know about.
"Hmph, are you trying to use your abilities to forcibly resist the power of ten thousand arrows? Good! Then I'll see how many arrows your abilities can stop! ”
Cao Cao thought so, and while ordering the soldiers to continue shooting arrows, he called Xu Chu over and told him to prepare the whole battalion for battle.
Cao Cao shot several rounds in a row, and all of them were accepted by the opponent's ability, but he still did not change his face and continued to order the arrows to be released.
However, just as he was about to raise his hand again and give the order to launch, he was interrupted by a voice.
"Slow down."
It was a rather young man who spoke, dressed in a purple robe, with an open middle, revealing his civilian clothes inside, and looking rather bohemian.
But hearing this voice, Cao Cao immediately put down his hand, trotted all the way to the man's side, and held his hand: "Great, Fengxiao, you came just in time." ”
Fortunately, Li Gui was not here at this time, otherwise, if he saw this person known as "Fengxiao" appear, I am afraid he would have doubted his life!
Because, now only he knows in the world that this man known as Fengxiao will never appear by Cao Cao's side!
In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", there is only one person who appears under Cao Cao and will be called "Fengxiao":
That's the genius of the ghost, Guo Jia.
However, according to the timeline in the original work of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", during the Battle of Chibi, Guo Jia had already been dead for many years, and he was all dry bones in the mound!
Don't say he's a ghost, even if he's a god, it's impossible to come back from the dead and appear here!
What the hell is going on?
Could it be that in this world where the characters of the Three Kingdoms have special abilities, Guo Jia is really a ghost and a god leaning over and has the art of resurrecting the dead?
Li Gui was not here with the two, and he had no way to ask this question.
The Three Kingdoms of another world don't seem to follow the plot of the original book exactly as he thought, and he doesn't know this.
Only Cao Cao himself knows that the ghost plot Guo Jia in front of him is his most trusted military advisor, better than thousands of troops.
With Cao Cao's support, Guo Jia walked to the wall, looked at the railing for a while, and then chuckled.
"What does this mean?" Cao Cao hurriedly asked.
Guo Jia said: "It's a treacherous trick, but that's it." ”
This familiar sentence made Cao Cao overjoyed: "What is the trick of Fengxiao?" ”
Guo Jia observed for a while, and then said calmly: "Why don't you try to use fire to ignite the feather arrow and then shoot it." ”
When Cao Cao heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then thought for a moment, and then pondered: "I really didn't think of this method, but tens of thousands of feather arrows can't break through the opponent's ability, even if we use fire to ignite the feather arrows, what difference can it make?"
Besides, if we let the enemy's warship burn and the enemy flees and allows it to rush into our camp, it will inevitably burn the company camp and affect the morale of the army. ”
Hearing this, Guo Jia shook his head and said confidently: "Don't worry, the lord doesn't have to worry, when the wind is not long, it will blow southward, and the grass boats in the enemy military area will not float in the village." ”
After a pause, seeing that Cao Cao was puzzled by the word "grass boat", Guo Jia smiled before continuing to explain: "The enemy army is not driving a warship to rush to the village to kill the enemy, but it is just a false attack. Look, my lord, although the figures on the boat are dense, they do not move without wind, and the arrows are not alarmed, they must be dummies. ”
When Cao Cao heard this, he suddenly realized that he hurriedly ordered the soldiers to use rockets to shoot the enemy instead.
"Feng Xiao really calculated, we shot rockets, set their warship on fire, and then let it go down the river and burn the enemy camp.
Hahaha, I think that Zhou Yu is just like this, carving insects, but he smashed his feet and burned his own village. ”
Hearing the lord's praise, Guo Jia's face did not change, he was calm, and just said to himself in a voice that no one could hear: "This time...... I'm afraid the person who came was not Zhou Yu...... Whoever it is, let me see your means......"
Saying this, Guo Jia's hand stretched out into the void casually, and summoned a long stick.
At the top of the long stick is a jewel as bright as a star, the body of the stick is black, and the words "Tianyi Xingyue" are engraved on it.
At the moment when he held the long stick, Guo Jia's whole person also floated in the air, facing the grass boat opposite, and he silently thought in his heart:
"My lord, please let me offer victory for you."
"Destiny is normal, but virtue is supplemented!"
"Tianyi Xingyue!"
