Chapter 11: The Story of the Curtain
In the days after the deal with Fang Feiluo, Li Gui and Qin Ruguan stayed by Zhuge Liang's side, never leaving.
Benefiting from this opportunity, they were able to observe this hero hidden behind the Battle of Chibi for the first time so closely.
Mr. Kong Ming likes to read, but what he reads is neither the art of war that Li Gui imagined about Qimen Dunjia and sprinkling beans into soldiers, nor the Confucian classics and Legalist works, but the Tao Te Ching that teaches people to cultivate their self-cultivation.
They can always hear Mr. Kong Ming reading aloud in the tent.
If it weren't for the fact that they could always hear the hurried footsteps of the soldiers, the shouts of drills in the distance, and the rumbling of ships falling into the water, they probably wouldn't have remembered that the Battle of Chibi was about to begin.
Of course, Li Gui knew that before the official start of the Battle of Chibi, there should be a wonderful drama about to be staged.
That is: the legendary Zhou Yu and Zhou Dadu are about to ask Zhuge Liang to "borrow the east wind" for him.
"I just don't know, what day will it be? According to the original work, it should be Zhou Yu who claimed that his henchmen were in pain, and then Lu Su asked Zhuge Liang to see a doctor for him. In that case, I have to find an excuse to follow Zhuge Liang to see Zhou Yu......"
Standing in the tent, Li Gui thought silently.
However, at this moment, he suddenly heard the herald outside the tent shouting: "Mr. Kong Ming, the governor of Zhou Dadu asks to see you." ”
This difference from the original book made Li Gui stunned, but he also knew that the plot of this fantasy world would not necessarily develop exactly like the original novel, so he didn't care much about it.
He just quickly stood up straight and listened to Mr. Kong Ming say, "Gong Jin, please come in." ”
When the words landed, the curtain of the tent was opened, and a tall and heroic man walked in, which was naturally Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu did not wear regular clothes like Kong Ming and Lu Su, he was called a Confucian general, and he wore a set of crimson battle armor like a solidified flame.
As soon as he entered the door, he said bluntly: "Mr. Kong Ming, I have already arranged the bitter meat plan and the iron chain chain. At that time, the ships of the Cao thieves will be connected by iron cables.
The ship that Huang Gai pretended to take refuge in would be filled with gunpowder and crash into the thief ship, setting it on fire.
However, the wind is now blowing in the northwest direction, and even if the thief ship catches fire, the fire will not spread. I heard that your gossip skills are superb, and I ask you to help regardless of your past suspicions. ”
After that, I saw that Namei Zhoulang actually knelt down on one knee, bowed his head and bowed his hand, and apologized to Zhuge Liang regardless of his identity.
This move once again put Li in order.
“??? This Zhou Yu, why don't you follow the original script? Li thought to himself.
It's no wonder that he wondered that in the original work of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Luo Guanzhong portrayed Zhou Yu as a tsundere villain in order to bring out Zhuge Liang's character setting of "wise and close to demon".
However, the governor of Zhou in front of him simply put down his body neatly and asked Zhuge Liang for his guilt!
How can this still be a bit of a tsundere?
"What's going on? Could it be that I have crossed into a fake Three Kingdoms? Li Gui couldn't help complaining.
However, while complaining, he felt that the Zhou Yu in front of him was probably closer to the historical image of the governor of Jiangdong than Zhou Yu in the original novel.
You must know that in the real historical records, Zhou Yu is known as "Lupine Scarf" and "Mei Zhou Lang", and he is a capable man with extraordinary bearing.
He is the real mastermind and commander of the Battle of Chibi, and the mainstay of protecting the millions of people in Jiangdong from Cao Cao's poison.
Moreover, his death was only because of a physical illness and his untimely death, not because he was angry because he was jealous of Zhuge Liang and saw through the strategy as written in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
I have to say that sometimes, in order to satisfy their own desires, novelists arbitrarily arrange plots, completely ignoring the supposed existence of the characters in the novel, which is indeed a big fallacy.
Therefore, Li Gui thinks that the current Three Kingdoms are quite good.
"Governor Zhou, why do you have to do this?" He said, "Since you and my lord have formed an alliance, I will definitely help each other, so why not?" Don't worry, and let me go over to you again the details of the plan you have mentioned. I'll take care of the direction of the wind. ”
After speaking, Zhuge Liang unfolded the battle map on the table, and the two "behind-the-scenes" heroes of the Battle of Chibi restored all the details of the Battle of Chibi together under the witness of Qin Ruguan and Li Gui.
"Oh my God!" Qin Ruguan was so excited that he directly dragged the corner of Li Gui's clothes, "It turns out that the Battle of Chibi was fought like this?!" ”
Qin Ruguan, a native of Blue Star who had never heard of the Battle of Chibi, was completely conquered by the Battle of Chibi, which was revealed in the conversation between the two and had never been experienced in their world.
"When I go back, I must write the truth of the Battle of Chibi in its entirety!"
She attached it to Li Gui's ear and sighed in a low voice, "Classmate Li Gui, it's really good to be able to match your soul with you!" If you hadn't discovered this hidden plot, people all over the world would not have known that the Battle of Chibi was fought like this! ”
Feeling the warm fragrance in his ears, Li Gui didn't have the slightest charming thought.
"Yes...... he just sighed, "The Battle of Chibi should have been fought like this......"
......
......
At the same time, in the tent of Cao Cao's camp on the north bank, Cao Cao also gathered with his advisers and generals to discuss the details of the general attack.
However, unlike the candlelight night talk of the two beautiful men on Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu's side, on Cao Ying's side, everyone was quietly listening to a man with a skinny body, an extremely ugly appearance, his whole body was covered with abscesses, and even his legs and feet were festering:
"My lord, although the power of the iron chain offered by Pang Tong can make the warships of our army join together and walk on the ground. But after all, this is too risky, and if the enemy drives a fireboat to charge into battle, it will inevitably cause the company and camp to be burned.
As far as I can see, that Pang Tong must have been a spy sent by the enemy. He will use this power to be disturbed and kind. Therefore, my lord, please listen to me, and kill this man immediately, and never use him! ”
Cao Cao listened carefully to the man's words, and couldn't help but hesitate, but before he could speak, Guo Jia beside him had already understood what the lord meant, and explained to the man:
"Cheng Yu, we all understand what you said."
"However, the soldiers in our army are not only not good at water warfare, but also we don't have any people who are good at water warfare.
"Now this iron-locked chain of abilities can make our soldiers walk on the ground on the warship, and instantly make up for the losses in our geographical advantages, so that our army can have the opportunity to defeat the Sun Liu thief army in a head-on decisive battle and dominate the world, how can we waste food because of choking?"
"Yes, I know that Pang Tong has a ghost, but as long as we make it impossible for that Sun Liu thief army to break through to our camp in a fireboat, his ability can only be used by us, so why give it up in vain?"
Hearing Guo Jia's words, Cheng Yu fell into deep thought, he didn't understand the truth, his main concern was another point.
As if sensing his worries, Cao Cao took the initiative to pour a glass of wine for him, an ugly-looking advisor, and said: "Zhongde, you don't have to worry, it's the middle of winter, the northwest wind is blowing on the whole continent, and the location of our army is located in the northwest of the Sun Liu thief army, even if the enemy army drives a fireboat, how can it easily break through to our battalion?" ”
Hearing this, Cheng Yu couldn't sit still, and he immediately spoke: "The lord's words are wrong, according to the local fishermen I captured, the weather in this Chibi is unusual. Even in the middle of winter, the southeast wind still blows from time to time. ”
"It doesn't matter." When Guo Jia heard this, he smiled and said, "As long as I use my [Tianyi] ability, even if the southeast wind really blows, I can turn the tide of time." At that time, our army will occupy the right time and place, plus the existing people and harmony, how can it be invincible? ”
After speaking, he turned his head again and looked at Cao Cao: "Lord, please lend me the military bandstand." ”
Hearing this, Cheng Yu couldn't help but be stunned, he thought about it, a wry smile appeared on his face, and he also said to Cao Cao: "Lord, then Zhongde will please allow me to follow Feng Xiao's side, and in addition, give me another five hundred dead soldiers, three thousand boys and girls, and ten thousand cattle and sheep in case of emergency." ”
Hearing the request of his two most important advisers, Cao Cao did not directly agree, he pondered for a moment before he said slowly: "This method of [Tianyi] and [Hungry Ghost]...... Although it can reverse the time, it will hurt itself after all, so it should not be used lightly.
Fengxiao, Zhongde, both of you are my right-hand men, and now our army is far more powerful than the Sun-Liu coalition army, and it may not be without me at this time, why should you be like this? Just let me do my best to defeat the enemy. ”
However, when Guo Jia heard this, he knelt directly on the ground: "I still hope that the lord will be perfect." ”
Cao Cao looked up to the sky and sighed, silent.
At the same time, Cheng Yu took a deep breath and drank the cup of green plum wine that Cao Cao poured for him, the wine entered his throat and turned into flames. ”
