Chapter 543: The River Is Burning

Huang Zu had the premise of shooting Sun Jian, and in his heart, he didn't take the people of the Sun family seriously and didn't take it to heart.

If Sun Quan really dared to call, at least they would not be able to ask for anything, and they would have to pay a heavy price, and if it was serious, they would be able to keep Sun Quan in Lujiang forever.

"I think Sun Quan is here more for General Huang this time."

Cai Mao said with a smile.

They are fully prepared now, and they know in advance what Sun Quan is going to do, and they also don't take Sun seriously.

As long as Sun Quan dares to do it, it is appropriate to come and send him to death.

No pressure at all.

Huang Zu sneered: "I'm also waiting for him to come, as long as he dares to come, see who can kill whom." General Cai, how are you going to fight this battle? ”

Cai Mao thought for a while and said: "Since Sun Quan wants to catch us off guard, then let's cooperate and let him think that we are really defenseless, and wait for him to call, and then play slowly." ”

Huang Zu smiled and said, "It's still General Cai who has ideas." ”

So, they asked people to arrange it and prepare to face Sun Quan.

They don't know when Sun Quan will attack, but they will definitely call in the near future.

Because, the time of day.

Now the east wind is blowing, it is suitable for Sun Quan to do it, if you wait for a long time, the east wind passes, Sun Quan's advantage is not as big as it is now, and it is necessary to cooperate with Liu Bei's actions, which is the most suitable now.

Not long after, the camp of the Cao army on this side of the Lujiang River was emptied, and Cai Mao and the others were only near the camp, leaving some empty boats and countless scarecrows, waiting for Sun Quan and them to call.

Once these are done, night falls.

The sailors who had not yet left lit many torches and lanterns here.

In the light of the fire, the scarecrows formed a human figure, which could not be seen very clearly in the night, but it could be seen as a person.

Sun Quan and the others have now approached the vicinity of Cao Jun's naval camp, and when they looked at the camp, they only vaguely saw that there seemed to be people in the camp, and it was impossible to judge how many people there were, but the firelight was obvious, and there were a lot of people.

"How's it going?"

Sun Quan asked first.

Zhou Tai beside him first said: "Back to the lord, you can attack!" ”

Sun Quan said: "Come on, prepare our fire oil, light it all on fire, and rush straight into it with the wind." ”

When they attacked the camp, they also attacked with fire.

This is a strategy given by Zhou Yu, with the wind smooth, hit it with a fire boat, and can burn all the camps of the Cao army and the navy with a fire, the method of fire attack is good, Sun Quan They agreed that it was feasible and adopted it directly.

On some ships, piled with straw and fire oil, the soldiers in charge of the fire attack received Sun Quan's order to immediately light the fire and raise the sails.

Call......

The east wind is blowing from downstream.

The ships that lit the straw were blown by the east wind, and quickly went to the Cao camp upstream, crashing into the warships of the Cao army's naval camp, and then being blown by the wind, the tongue of fire rolled up, and set the Cao army's warship on fire.

As a result, the camp of Cao Jun's sailors was also set on fire, and a sea of fire was formed in an instant, rolling wildly with the momentum of a prairie fire.

It's just that they don't know that the inside of Cao's camp has long been emptied, and they just left a row of tents for them.

Most of Cao Jun's warships left, and they were only on the river, leaving some obsolete ships, or leaving some warships specially used to confuse Sun Quan, waiting for Sun Quan to burn them.

The warships of Cao's navy were concentrated upstream at this time.

And the soldiers kept pouring the oil they had prepared into the river.

Above the Yangtze River, an oily light soon appeared, and under the moonlight, it was a little shiny.

The oil on the surface of the river flowed down the current, and soon came to the vicinity of Sun Quan's warship, but the soldiers of Cao's army did not stop there, and the amount of fire oil they prepared was also extremely large, and they continued to pour down.

"I knew that if Sun Quan wanted to make a move, they must attack with fire."

Huang Zu seemed to see through everything, and said disapprerovitically: "He is going to burn our warships, then we will turn around and burn them too, tonight's river is full of fire, so lively!" ”

Cai Mao laughed and said: "The ally Liu Bei is looking for doesn't know how to fight very well, after this battle, the strength of the Jiangdong Navy should be almost weakened by us, right?" ”

Huang Zu narrowed his eyes and analyzed: "Sun Quan is coming, one is to defeat our navy, and the other is to bring me back and avenge Sun Jian. ”

With his knowledge of Sun, this is exactly the case.

The Jiangdong Navy is huge, but it can't withstand Sun Quan's toss.

Cai Mao said: "Sun Quan is giving us a great achievement!" ”

This great achievement is still very easy to get.

They continued to urge, and people kept pouring fire oil.

These fire oils were originally prepared by them in advance to fight the Jiangdong Naval Army, and now they are being used in advance, and tonight's fire is burning hotter.

Sun's warship crashed into Cao's navy, and the fire soon burned.

It's just that the scene they expected of the soldiers of the Cao Army running away in a panic and shouting loudly did not appear.

The warships, as well as the naval camp, were simply burned.

Other than that, there was no other movement.

It was Zhou Yu who reacted the fastest, and said eagerly: "We have been tricked, Cao Jun must have known what we are going to do, hurry up and retreat, lord, retreat quickly!" ”

Sun Quan recovered from his trance, and knew that something big was going to happen, Cao Jun was here, digging a trap and waiting for them to jump in.

Not only did they not find out, but they couldn't wait to jump in.

Something might happen tonight, something horrible.

"Retreat, put away all the sails, and go!"

Sun Quan shouted in panic.

The soldiers beside him passed the order.

All the Cao army warships on the river changed direction at this time and prepared to run downstream along the river.

However, at this time, the oil on the surface of the river completely surrounded their warships.

The camps and warships that were burned by the fire, and finally there were sparks, splashing down on the river.

Rumble......

The oil was ignited immediately.

Oil can float on the surface of the water, and even if there is water underneath, it can be easily burned.

As soon as the oil was ignited, it spread rapidly and burned towards Sun's warship.

The first ship was caught in flames, and the wood on board was quickly ignited, and the flames climbed up the hull and were about to burn to the deck.

The soldiers on the ship, at this time, shouted in panic.

There was also a great wisdom who wanted to jump off the boat to escape, but as soon as he jumped, he was completely burned.

Sun Quan and the others were stunned when they saw this scene.

"Lord, let's go!"

Zhou Yu was still able to stay awake and rush out, leaving the burned warship alone, while the ship was still moving, and leaving as soon as possible.
