Chapter 968 The Solution
There was a gun boom not far away, and a big ship flew over quickly. It turned out that Cao Cao was chasing Zhuge Liang's boat, but Zhuge Liang seemed to find out and deliberately took Cao Cao to walk around the river. Seeing this, Guo Jia suddenly changed his face and suddenly woke up. He told Zhuge Liang such a trick, which must be fraud. General Xiahou was likely to be ambushed. Cao Cao was shocked when he heard the words and immediately ordered the soldiers to pull the boat and rush to Xiangyang. Later, as Guo Jia expected, Cao Cao saw bursts of flames by the river and immediately ordered to speed up to save Xia Houyuan.
The huge warship came quickly, and the arrows on the big ship fell like a shower. Seeing this, Ma Liang's face changed dramatically and he couldn't scream well. He quickly asked the soldiers to pull out the boat. The big ship gradually approached. Xia Houyuan and Le Jin saw the reinforcements coming. The blood broke out, and the swords were cut randomly. They killed the siege and attacked the crowd, jumped into the river, and looked at the big ship rushing away.
Cao Cao was eager to see it and hurriedly ordered the soldiers to go down to the river to save him. For a while, Xia Houyuan and Le Jin were rescued into the big ship. There was blood spewing in many places on the two of them. When Cao Cao saw it, his face suddenly turned black, and he gritted his teeth and shouted.
"Zhuge Cunfu, how dare you cheat!!!?"
Cao Cao's roar, like a thunder explosion, exploded on the river, and his huge warship was like a giant whale. Seeing this, the soldiers and horses in Jingzhou were so scared that they sailed away one after another. Cao Cao ordered the soldiers to sail on the river and shoot for a while. Countless arrows fell into the river, shaking the waves.
Ma Liang led the fleet away and rushed back to the shore. Cao Cao just ordered the soldiers to turn the boat back.
At night, a small boat on the river came slowly. Ma Liang, Mi Fang and others waited on the shore for a long time. Seeing the boat dock, Zhuge Liang stepped out. Ma Liang quickly knelt on the ground and told the past. Zhuge Liang listened to Xia Houyuan and others and was rescued by Cao Cao. He frowned slightly and said secretly in his heart.
"It seems that it is not easy to solve the present crisis!"
Zhuge Liang finished thinking about it, so he helped Ma Liang up. He was not blamed, but he was easy to comfort him. Mi Fang was beside him. Seeing that Zhuge Liang's plan was not successful, he hurriedly asked.
"Military division, now escaped by Xiahou Yuan and Le Jin. Our army has no chips to exchange for the two generals Pan and Zhang. What should we do?
When Zhuge Liang heard the words, his expression condensed, suppressed his eagerness in his heart, and said calmly.
"Although things are urgent, we must not be too impatient, otherwise it will only be counterproductive. Wait and follow me to explore around, take a look at the surrounding terrain, and then make a conclusion. Mr. Cao let me have three days, and I still have time to think about strategies!!!"
Zhuge Liang was very calm. After saying that, he rode a fast horse and walked along the river. Ma Liang, Mi Fang and others followed closely. After that, for two days in a row, Zhuge Liang did not rest day and night, and surveyed the terrain around the river. After many explorations, he confirmed the high mountain where Pan Feng and Zhang Fei were trapped by Wei soldiers. Zhuge Liang rushed to the opposite mountain. The high mountains where Pan and Zhang were located were flooded by the Xiangjiang River. Within a radius of hundreds of meters, it was impossible to get close unless they sailed. The high mountain where Zhuge Liang is located today is hundreds of meters apart, and it is just not flooded by the Xiangjiang River.
Zhuge Liang stood on the high mountain and looked at the opposite mountain where Pan and Zhang were located. He looked calm and looked at it for a long time. Suddenly, Zhuge Liang's face changed, and his eyes burst into extremely bright brilliance. It seems to cover the light of heaven and earth.
Let's say that Cao Cao rushed back that day. It was early summer. The mountain was extremely hot, but the bottom of the mountain was very cool because of the water. The soldiers all wanted to camp at the foot of the mountain, and each general came to ask Cao Cao.
"Today, the weather is hot, and the army on the mountain is like a red fire, and everyone hopes to be able to rely on the underwater camp at the foot of the mountain. I hope the king can make a final choice!"
Cao Cao heard the words, but he was afraid that he would camp at the foot of the mountain and escape by Pan Feng and Zhang Fei. Then he saw the dense forest in the mountain. When he was happy, he made the soldiers camp in the dense forest in the mountain.
The generals got the order, so they camped with the dense forest according to Cao Cao's instructions. There were many patrols in front of the dense forest, closely monitoring the every move of Pan Zhang, Zhang Fei and hundreds of other people. When Guo Jia saw Cao Cao garrisoning in the dense forest, his face changed dramatically. He rushed to see Cao Cao and said.
"The king of Wei didn't know that Bao Yuan was in danger and formed a camp. This is a big taboo for soldiers. If he attacks with fire, how can he be rescued!?"
Cao Cao was surprised when he heard the words.
"Haha! Why do you have to worry about the sky when you are filial? Why don't you know the art of war!? Nowadays, the mountains are surrounded by water on all sides. Even if Zhuge Kongming has great power, it is impossible to set fire out of thin air. What's more, now the weather is hot, and the soldiers are working hard, so they order to camp in the dense forest to escape the summer heat. And after three days, if Zhuge Liang did not answer, he immediately killed Pan Feng and Zhang Fei, withdrew his troops and retreated. When the water of Xiangjiang passed, he would attack Xiangyang!"
Guo Jia frowned. He didn't know what Cao Cao said, but he didn't know why. He vaguely felt inappropriate, but he didn't know where it was wrong. Guo Jia was uncertain, Cao Cao laughed and appeased him, so he decided to set up the camp.
But Zhuge Liang said that when he saw Wei Bing camp in the dense forest, he was overjoyed and laughed repeatedly.
"Hahahahaha, Mr. Cao is not familiar with the art of war. The two generals Pan and Zhang can be saved!!"
Ma Liang was shocked when he heard the words, but he was confused and asked doubtfully.
"Does the military division have a plan!?"
Zhuge Liang noddled heavily, with a goose feather fan in his hand, and pointed to Wei Bing in the dense forest on the opposite mountain.
"Yes. Ji often can see that the Wei soldiers are all stationed in the dense forest? If our army is here and set a fire, the Wei soldiers will inevitably be in chaos and run for their lives. Immediately, we only need to send three small boats to wait on the water at the foot of the mountain at night. Naturally, the two generals Pan and Zhang will take advantage of the chaos to break through the siege and flee to the foot of the mountain to wait for us to receive!!"
Ma Liang's eyes burst out two pieces of light, but he frowned again and asked suspiciously.
"You can face the high mountains and surround the water everywhere. If our army crosses the river and wants to set fire on the mountain, it will attract the attention of the other army and startle the snake, but miss the big thing.
Zhuge Liang raised the corners of his mouth, showed a bright smile, and said with a smile.
"Ha ha, our army crossed the river to set fire, and it is naturally difficult to do anything. But what if I set fire to the mountain in this mountain?
Hearing this, Ma Liang frowned even more and asked doubtfully.
"But these two mountains are hundreds of meters away from each other. Even with the help of the wind, it is rare to shoot arrows? How can I set fire across the river in this mountain!?"
Zhuge Liang had a pair of bright eyes, shining, extremely bright, and a better smile, and then replied.
"Normal bows and arrows are not allowed. You don't have to worry about it. Mountain people have their own tricks!!!"
Zhuge Liang finished speaking and couldn't wait to turn around and leave. Ma Liang followed closely. Zhuge Liang rushed back to Xiangyang City that night, summoned the generals, and ordered them one by one. The three-day deadline of the generals was getting closer and closer, and all of them were in a hurry. At this time, Zhuge Liang suddenly returned to the city and issued a military order. There must be a clever plan to relieve the danger of the two generals Pan and Zhang. At present, all the generals in Jingzhou have doubled their spirits, take orders one by one, and make arrangements quickly.
By the next day, the deadline for Cao Cao and Zhuge Liang had expired. At that time, the north wind was strong and the waves were turbulent. Cao Cao was on the top of the mountain, looking at the Xiangjiang River from a distance.
Cao Cao looked at the first round of bright sun, shining on the river, like thousands of golden snakes, playing waves. Cao Cao laughed in the wind, thinking that no matter what, he could get rid of Zhuge Liang's great trouble today, and he thought he had won his ambition. If Zhuge Liang does not want to surrender, Pan and Zhang will die. Liu Bei and both of them have a vow to live and die together. How can they spare Zhuge Liang? Even if Liu Bei does not kill Zhuge Liang, he will also be alienated from him. At that time, Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei are not at peace with each other. How can they sit firmly in Jingzhou? If Zhuge Liang is willing to vote, even if he is unwilling to make suggestions for himself, he will be controlled by himself all his life under his command.
Zhuge Liang's strategy is as high as a demon. Cao Cao asked himself about the opponent he met in his life, because he was the most unfathomable and the most afraid. Now Zhuge Liang has been pinched in his palm. Cao Cao was majestic and said with great interest on the top of the mountain.
"Although the turtle is long-lived, there is still a time. Wolong rides on the fog and finally turns into ashes. The old man is determined to be thousands of miles away. In the old age of martyrs, his heart is magnificent. The period of profit and contraction is not only in the sky. If you are happy, you can get eternal years.
The angry voice of Cao rose up. Cao Cao's words were pearly and wonderful. The poem was full of contempt for fate, and he wanted to calm down the country and unify the will of the world. Guo Jia, Jia Xu and other counselors all sighed when they heard it. When their soldiers heard it, they all had a fighting spirit. They wanted to take advantage of this fashion and be strong, make more achievements and make contributions.
At that time, Cao Cao was nearly sixty years old, and his temples were frosty white. The resolute face carved by the years was full of popularity. This man, whether he is a thief in a chaotic country or a minister who governs the world, is also good, but his legendary life is amazing and awe-inspiring!!
Cao Cao's singing came slowly, and hundreds of Jingzhou soldiers and horses were moved one after another. They couldn't help looking at Cao Cao, and their eyes surged with uncontrollable admiration. Pan Feng listened silently, and suddenly Feng opened her eyes and muttered in her heart.
"If such a hero is led by him, he may really usher in a peaceful and prosperous world. Unfortunately, even such a hero will eventually disappear in the long river of time.
Pan Feng seemed to have a lot of understanding. After a slight sigh, she fell silent again. But Zhang Fei curled his lips with disdain.
"Huh! Mr. Cao, you won't be proud for long. Sooner or later, Zhang Yide will take your head! This Han Dynasty will only fall into the hands of my brother Liu Xuande in the end!!"
Zhang Feilei's loud roar can be said to be a terrible scenery. Xiahou Dun listened on the side, so angry that his whole body was like a fire. The tiger's eyes were ferocious, and he grabbed the hilt of the sword at his waist with one hand, stepped on his feet, and roared harshly.
"You are a reckless man who doesn't know whether you are good or bad, and you still dare to say anything when you die. If Zhuge Kongming doesn't come today, I will take the black head on your neck!!"
Zhang Fei listened and gritted his teeth, like an angry black panther, staring at Xiahou Dun. Pan Feng slowly opened her eyes and called her third brother, indicating that Zhang Fei could not do it. Zhang Fei also knew the current situation and did not allow him to be presumptuous. He snorted coldly and turned his head. At this time, Cao Ren also walked to Xiahou Dun and persuaded him coldly.
"Yuan Rang didn't need to pay attention to such a reckless man. Now he is like chopping board fish, and life and death are in the mind of the king. You don't have to be angry with him. It's just a wild dog barking.
Hearing this, Xiahou Dun glanced at Zhang Fei coldly, then turned around and ignored it. After a while, Cao Cao finished reciting his poems. After watching the scenery on the river, as soon as he turned around, he saw Jia Xu coming in a hurry. Jia Xu's face was a little anxious, and he said to Cao Cao.
"According to the return of the detective, Zhuge Kongming looked around at the terrain for a long time. Presumably, he must be secretly thinking about strategies, and the king must guard against it."
