Chapter 293: Only the East Wind is owed

.lā”

Zhou Yu was overjoyed and said, "Please!"

Cao Cao's use of the "bitter meat strategy" this time was originally dangerous, Cao Cao was already suspicious, and there were many strategists under his account, but this plan was not easy to succeed. But Cao Cao's problem was that he didn't know Jiangdong, not Zhou Yu.

When Jiang Gan arrived at the big tent, Zhou Yu greeted him outside the tent and arched his hand: "Brother Ziyi, don't come unharmed." ”

Jiang Gan smiled: "I'm afraid that you won't welcome it, but it's presumptuous to come this time." ”

"Brother Ziyi has seen the outside, my Jiangdong gate will be opened for my brother at any time. Zhou Yu stretched out his hand and said, "Please!"

The two of them went to the tent and sat down. Zhou Yu said: "Brother Ziyi, last time thanks to you for forcing out Pang Tong, I just don't know what he wants?"

"Pang Tong is a simple person who does not interact with people, and is very mysterious. I tried him several times, but to no avail. Jiang Gan sighed, "But he offered a plan for Cao Cao, you must know." ”

"Who are you a serial scheme?"

He advised Cao Cao to chain up the big ships and train the navy on them, so as to avoid the risk that the northern soldiers were not accustomed to water warfare. ”

"In your opinion, is this plan to help Cao Cao, or harm Cao Cao?" Zhou Yu wondered.

That's where the suspicion lies. The serial plan is indeed beneficial to Jiangbei, but the disadvantage is that it gives you the risk of attacking with fire, giving Soochow a glimmer of life. ”

"Just a glimmer of life?"

Or rather, it's not a livelihood at all. But if Cao Cao didn't use a chain of tricks and steadily trained his navy, Soochow would be defeated. And the serial plan, at least it gives you a way to attack with fire, do you say yes or no?"

Zhou Yu had to laugh and say, "I can't hide anything from you, it's true." ”

But because of this, this Mr. Feng Xiao is even more mysterious, I don't know whether he wants to help Cao Cao or harm Cao Cao. ”

"Could he have expected this? Could it be just a coincidence?"

Jiang Gan shook his head and said: "Pang Tong is not an ordinary strategist, he claims to be able to anticipate the events of the past fifty years, we can see such a small thing, how can he not see it?"

Zhou Yu got up and said, "Then he must be helping us." ”

"How so?"

"If it weren't for him, how would we still have this glimmer of life?!" Zhou Yu sighed.

"But even with this glimmer of life, how are you going to break Cao?" Jiang Gan asked curiously.

Zhou Yu smiled mysteriously, "Isn't this the purpose of Ziyi's coming to my Dongwu?"

Jiang Gan laughed, "Sure enough, as I expected, you have made another bitter ploy!"

Zhou Yu also smiled and said: "Don't hide Ziyi, Huang Gai surrendered, Kan Ze offered a book, and Gan Ning surrendered again, just a plan to coax Cao Cao." ”

"Aren't you afraid that I'll go back and tell Cao Cao?" Jiang Gan said.

"Ziyi is a famous man in the world, and he is an old man in Jingzhou. At this time, it is also a last resort to commit to Cao Cao. If I can't trust my brother, who in the world can trust me?"

Jiang Gan suddenly took a deep look and said: "Jiang Gan is deeply afraid of bearing the notoriety of eternity, and now Gongjin will testify for me, and thousands of years later, I will not let future generations misunderstand me." ”

Zhou Yu hurriedly helped Jiang Gan up: "Ziyi's words are serious, the two of us have known each other for many years, and we should share honor and disgrace." ”

Zhou Yu instructed his subordinates to prepare a banquet and said: "Now everything is ready, Po Cao only owes the east wind." I don't know what Brother Ziyi thinks?"

"The east wind is the time of the day, how can it be done by manpower? Gongjin, you are embarrassed for me. ”

Zhou Yu muttered: "Zhuge Liang said before that he could borrow the east wind, but did he really borrow the east wind?"

"You have to ask Zhuge Liang himself about this. Jiang Gan shook his head and said.

Zhou Yu was thoughtful.

On the south bank of the Yangtze River, in a quiet harbor, under the candlelight of the boat, Zhuge Liang was watching the Fuxi gossip. Fuxi Bagua is the ancient god Fuxi invented the Bagua, namely Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Li, Gen, and Dui Bagua, which respectively represent the heaven, earth, thunder, wind, water, fire, mountain, and Ze, which participates in and relies on the art of heaven and earth change, and gives full play to the rigid and soft nature of each hexagram, and contains the yin and yang physics, social evolution, and production experience in the Bagua hexagram.

One person came straight into the account, it was Zhou Yu.

"I don't know if the governor is here, and I don't welcome you from afar, so please forgive me. Zhuge Liang bowed and said.

Zhou Yu said with a smile: "Mr. Zhuge doesn't have to be polite, I came here this time to borrow the east wind." Now that everything is ready, only the east wind is owed, I wonder if Mr. can make progress?"

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said: "It's really not a secret, Liang is ashamed that he hasn't entered the country yet." ”

"How sure are you now?"

"Fifty percent. ”

"Only fifty percent?" Zhou Yu exclaimed.

"It's not small. Zhuge Liang sighed and said, "I have already sent someone to find my master, Mr. Shuijing, he has reached the realm of earth immortals, if he goes out of the mountain to help, this matter will be done!"

"The decisive battle is imminent, I don't know where the respected master is?" Zhou Yu's eyes lit up.

"But he's not in the Water Mirror Villa. ”

"How?"

"It is up to man to do things, and it is up to heaven to do things, and that's the only way to do it. Zhuge Liang said, "When the governor wants the southeast wind, he can build one in Nanping Mountain, called the 'Seven Star Altar': nine feet high, three layers, with one hundred and twenty people, holding the flag around, and lighting the method to seek the southeast wind." ”

"Victory or defeat is here, I will arrange it, I hope that Mr. can successfully borrow the southeast wind. Zhou Yu's face was serious.

......

Cao Cao's camp in Jiangbei.

The scout came to report: "Prime Minister, Xiliang Taishou Ma Teng and Han Sui attacked Xudu with an army of 300,000, and Xun Yu's military division sent someone to ask, how to deal with it?"

Cao Cao was taken aback, Xiliang Ma Teng had always been his confidant. At the beginning, on the edict of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, there was the name of Xiliang Taishou Ma Teng. When he went south, he also sent people to guard Sanguan and monitor Ma Teng. Cao Cao immediately convened his ministers to discuss, and some people suggested that Cao Cao immediately withdraw his troops and return to Xudu; others said that no, now the arrow is on the bow, and he has to send it, and the Eastern Wu is about to be broken, how can he withdraw his troops?

In the big tent, the strategists quarreled endlessly, and Cao Cao was silent.

At this time, Cheng Yu said: "Prime Minister, Xiliang Ma Teng has courage and no strategy, I have three discussions, but I know that Ma Teng will definitely not commit Xu Du." ”

"Oh?" Cao Cao Qi said, "Zhongde, tell me what your three discussions are?"

"Now in the battle with Dongwu and Jiangxia, our army has a great victory, if Ma Teng acts rashly, the prime minister or the return army to reinforce Xudu, and only rely on Jingzhou's troops to defend Jingzhou. If Ma Teng is in such danger, how can he set himself on fire? This is a discussion. Secondly, it is not so easy for Ma Teng to hit Xudu, General Xiahou Yuan guards Chang'an and Tongguan, as the so-called one man is the pass, Ma Teng can not pass this pass at all; thirdly, the internal foundation of Xiliang is unstable, and many generals have the intention of being close to the prime minister, if Ma Teng comes to attack Xudu in danger, once the army is defeated, the rest of the generals are worried that the prime minister will blame, and the pass will inevitably be closed. In this way, before the situation in Jingzhou is clear, I conclude that Ma Teng will not dare to move. ”

Cao Cao stroked his palms and smiled: "Cheng Yu's plan is unintentional. But after all, Xiliang is a big trouble, and it is still necessary to strictly order Xiahou Yuan to strictly guard the Sanguan Pass to prevent a surprise attack. If Ma Teng really comes, it will not be too late to return to the army. ”

Everyone said: "The prime minister is wise." ”

Cao Cao said again: "Today is the 15th day of November in the winter of the thirteenth year of Jian'an. According to our lunar calendar, the first day of the new lunar month is the new day, and the fifteenth day is called the day of the looking day. Tonight I will feast the civil and military officials, drink and admire the moon, and the banquet and band will be placed on the central warship. Today's big ships are stable and wide, just in time for the civil and military conferences. ”

In the past few days, affected by the unfavorable war and the plague, everyone was in a heavy mood, and when they heard Cao Cao's discussion, they naturally applauded.

Only Cheng Yu understood in his heart: "It's finally here, the prime minister is going to fight a decisive battle with Dongwu!"
