Chapter 32: Pang Tong's Advice

It has been six days since Cao Cao and Sun Liu's allied forces confronted each other across the river, but the training of sailors on the Cao army's side has not been effective, which makes Prime Minister Cao Cheng very dissatisfied.

"How's my army's training for water warfare? When will I be able to cross the river? ”

In the face of Cao Cao's inquiry, Yu Ban and Mao Jue, who were the commanders of the navy, were on their backs, and they couldn't answer for a long time.

"Prime Minister, there is a person outside who calls himself Pang Tong Pang Shiyuan and asks to see him, saying that he wants to offer a plan."

Cao Cao was looking at Yu Ban and Mao Jue worried, and suddenly heard the soldier's report, and thought for a while.

"Pang Tong Pang Shiyuan...... The name sounds familiar. ”

Jia Xu on the side explained: "Prime Minister, that Pang Tong Pang Shiyuan, known as Feng Xiao, was famous when he was young, Sima Hui even said that Wolong and Feng Yan have to settle the world, although it is a bit exaggerated, but it also shows that this person is knowledgeable. ”

"Oh, it turned out that Mr. Feng Xiao wanted to make a plan, please hurry up~!"

Cao Cao sat on the main seat, and after a while, the soldier led in a person, this person was dressed plainly, with an elegant temperament, although he saw the prime minister of the dynasty, but he still showed neither humility nor arrogance, and bowed his hand.

"Pang Shiyuan has seen Prime Minister Cao Cheng."

"Hehehe~ No courtesy, I didn't expect Mr. Feng Xiao to visit today, I don't know what advice you have?"

Pang Tong's tone was not hurried, and he said in a low tone: "Prime Minister, Shiyuan passed by here, saw the Prime Minister's garrison and Wulin Water Village, and only after asking did he learn that the Prime Minister and Zhou Yu of Jiangdong confronted each other across the river, and saw that most of the Prime Minister's army were northern foot soldiers and were not good at water warfare, so he took the liberty to visit and offer a plan." ”

"Oh? What is there to help me defeat the enemy? ”

"In fact, it is very simple, most of the prime minister's subordinates are northern foot soldiers, if you want to be proficient in water warfare in a short period of time, it is better to change the method, use iron chains to connect the big ships tightly, so that the warships are connected together, like land, so that you can solve the disadvantages of the northern soldiers who are not good at water warfare in a short time, and then pour the strength of the whole army with the advantage of numbers, you will be able to break the enemy, Shi Yuan called this count as the iron chain plan."

"The Iron Chain...... Wonderful, wonderful~ Wenhe, this plan is wonderful~! ”

When Cao Cao heard Pang Tong's advice, his face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly looked at Jia Xu on the side, as if he was asking for his opinion.

Jia Xu's eyelids raised slightly, looked at Pang Tong for a moment, and said in a calm voice: "Mr. Feng Yan's plan is very good, but if you connect the warships as one, you will lose your due mobility, what if the enemy attacks with fire?" ”

Pang Tong seemed to have expected someone to ask such a question, and said with a slight smile: "What Mr. Wenhe said is extremely true, but this season the river is blowing a west or south wind, if the enemy attacks with fire, won't it burn to his own water village first?" The prime minister doesn't need to worry at all. ”

Hearing Pang Tong's explanation, Cao Cao nodded slightly and said: "Indeed, what Mr. Feng Xiao said is right, the west wind or southwest wind has been blowing on the river for the past few days, and Zhou Yu Xiao'er does not dare to attack with fire at all." ”

Cao Cao seemed to have made a decision in his heart, looked at Yu Ban and Mao Jue, who had just been scolded by himself, and said, "Can you two hear clearly?" Mr. Feng Xiao has a brilliant plan, go down and prepare quickly, and use iron chains to connect the warships and make them together, so that our soldiers don't have to worry about falling into the water anymore, so let's go quickly. ”

Yu Ban and Mao Jue secretly breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, feeling that it was really the right time for this Pang Tong to come, so they relieved the siege for the two of them, and hurriedly retreated.

Cao Cao looked at Pang Tong with a smile and said, "Mr. Feng Xiao doesn't seem to have entered the ranks yet, right?" Why don't you become a counselor under my account, I can recommend to your majesty, don't you think it's a pity that your husband has such a great talent but lives in the countryside? ”

Pang Tong smiled and bowed and said: "Shiyuan thanks the prime minister for his kindness, but Shiyuan thinks that his knowledge is still insufficient, and he still needs to hone and improve, please rest assured, if Shiyuan wants to enter the prime minister one day, he will definitely visit in person, and then he will also ask the prime minister to reward him with an official and a half-position." ”

"Hahaha~~ It's easy to say, come on, take some entanglements and give them to Mr., Mr. can solve the urgency of our army this time~!"

As soon as Pang Tong's iron cable serial plan came out, Cheng Yu and Xun You, the other two strategists under Cao Cao, suddenly felt bad, and came to ask Cao Cao to take back his life, and listed several hidden dangers, but our Prime Minister Cao Cheng has made up his mind, plus the southwest wind has been blowing recently, Cheng Yu proposed that he was afraid of the fire attack and was also scolded back by him, Xun You didn't say much when he saw this, but the worry on his face was a little heavier.

In the Chibi barracks, Zhao Yi, who had been training with the troops for a day, was about to go back to rest, when he suddenly saw someone spread the word that his scholar had something to look for him.

"My scholar is looking for me and still has someone to talk to? This military advisor is also really, isn't he afraid of being seen by others? ”

Zhao Yi shook his head, didn't think much about it, and went directly into Zhuge Liang's tent.

But when he entered, he found that in addition to Zhuge Liang, there was also a stranger sitting in the tent, this person was not tall, his face was round, and he was dressed elegantly.

"This is ......"

Zhuge Liang saw Zhao Yi coming in, beckoned, lowered his voice and said, "Hongfei, this is my friend, Pang Tong Pang Shiyuan." ”

Of course, Zhao Yi would not be unfamiliar when he heard this name, and looked up and down with a little surprise at the moment: "This is Mr. Feng Yan?" It's better to see than to hear. ”

Originally, when he looked at it for the first time, Zhao Yi only felt that there was an extraordinary temperament hidden behind this person's ordinary appearance, but when he heard that this was Pang Tong, he was a little surprised, because the Pang Tong described in the film and television dramas are all ugly-looking people, and although the one in front of him is not as good as Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu, he is not as ugly as he is, and there is really a gap between Romance and the official history.

Pang Tong stood up and hugged his fists and saluted: "Young hero, really young hero, just now Brother Kong Ming said that this son is only seventeen years old, I am quite puzzled, and now I am amazed at first sight~!" ”

Pang Tong and Zhao Yi are right-eyed, and their first impression of each other is very good.

Zhuge Liang smiled and motioned for the two to sit down, approached some and whispered: "Hongfei, Shiyuan was called when I wrote a letter to Shizun, and he had two purposes for this trip, one is to pass on Shizun's letters, and the other is to help us break through Cao's army." ”

Zhao Yi naturally knew what Pang Tong was here for, and immediately raised his hand to signal Zhuge Liang not to say anything, he pretended to pinch each other a few times with the fingers of his left hand, and acted like a magic stick.

"Military advisor Mo Yan, let me do the math...... Did Mr. Shi Yuan come this time to offer a plan for that Cao Cao, called the Iron Lock Serial Scheme? ”

"This ......"

As soon as Zhao Yi's words came out, Pang Tong's calm expression suddenly froze and became a little incredulous.

He glanced at Zhuge Liang, who was also quite surprised, and then explained: "Hongfei had an adventure when he was young, and he got the true legend of the immortals, but he didn't expect to have the ability to pinch and calculate, that's right, Shiyuan did offer Cao Cao a chain of iron ropes, and Hongfei knows what the meaning of this plan is?" ”

Zhao Yi pinched his fingers again, shook his head and said: "This is not difficult for me, Mr. Shiyuan's plan is called a chain plan, it seems to be dedicated to Cao Cao, but in fact it is dedicated to our army, as long as it cooperates with the east wind I borrowed, and then combined with the fire attack, it can burn the iron lock ship and defeat Cao Cao in one fell swoop." ”

At this moment, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong were silent, and the two looked at each other, with indescribable surprise in their expressions, and even a trace of envy.

"Kong Ming, just now you said that this young hero is rare, I still have reservations, now it seems that it is not only a young hero, but also a fairy in the sky who strayed into the mortal world~!"
