270 Thatched Boat Borrowing Rockets
Last night, the wind and snow were getting worse, and it was so urgent that the power went out...
Sun Jianjun went on a hasty battle this time, and he thought he could take Lujiang in just three or two days, so everything was simply put on the battlefield. The craftsmen in the army only brought more than fifty people.
More than fifty craftsmen made 100,000 arrows in three days, and such a task was simply impossible to complete.
Of course, Zhou Yu was very clear about this. He just wanted to take this opportunity to deal with Zhuge Liang well.
The pig surname, don't you always shake the feather fan in front of me, pretending to be omnipotent? Today I will embarrass you, I want to see what you will do when you face my order.
However, Zhuge Liang was still shaking the feather fan in his hand, looking calm and relaxed, and said with a smile:
"Cao army is currently stepping up training the navy, and our army has a particularly tense time left. One more day, the Cao army will have thousands of navy soldiers. In this way, it will take a little too long to build 100,000 arrows in three days."
Zhou Yu was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Zhuge Liang in shock and said for a long time:
"Since that's the case, in the sir, how many days does this 100,000 arrows take to complete it not long?"
Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan again and said:
“It should only be done in one day.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Zhou Yu was stunned and asked Zhuge Liang in disbelief:
"Sir, do you mean to make 100,000 arrows in one day?"
Zhuge Liang said:
"good."
Zhou Yu said seriously:
"No joke in the army"
Zhuge Liang said:
"Willing to make a military order"
Zhou Yu was overjoyed when he heard this and immediately ordered the civil servants to take paper and pen and ask Zhuge Liang to write a military order.
After he finished writing, General Zhou Yu took the order and read it carefully to prevent Zhuge Liang from playing any text game. Seeing that there was no deception between the lines, he gave it to the civil servant for safekeeping. Then he asked Zhuge Liang to go back and make arrows.
Looking at the background of Zhuge Liang's departure, Zhou Yu thought to himself: Zhu, this time you took the initiative to fall into my hands. You really think you are omnipotent. One day, that is, tomorrow afternoon, I want to see how you can take out 100,000 arrows and have a military order here. Even if you can't kill you, I will have to peel you a layer of skin.
I thought Zhuge Liang shortened the construction period of 100,000 arrows to just one day, and after returning, he would be so busy that he would hit the back of his head, and immediately urged the craftsmen to build arrows day and night. However, until evening, Zhou Yu learned from his patrol captain that the craftsmen in the army did not build arrows at all, and even did not know how to build arrows at all.
Zhou Yu was very confused and quickly took the military order and looked carefully several times, but he did not find any problems in the few lines of words.
What did Zhuge Liang think? Is he tired of living and trying to find a reason for his death?
Zhou Yu was puzzled. Thinking of Lu Su's relationship with Zhuge Liang, he ordered someone to come to Lu Su and ask Lu Su to go to Zhuge Liang to find out.
Lu Su is a kind-hearted person. Because he had some personal relationship with Zhuge Liang, he learned that Zhuge Liang had only made a military order to make 100,000 arrows in one day, and was worried about it. After expressing his worries in conversation with Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang laughed and asked Lu Su to come to his camp at 4 a.m. tomorrow, and naturally he knew how he had made these 100,000 arrows.
Lu Su naturally didn't know what Zhuge Liang sold in the gourd, so he left in confusion.
In the early morning of the next day, heavy fog fell from the sky, and all the fields were filled with nothing. Lu Su rushed over early under the thick fog, but Zhuge Liang still did not instruct the craftsmen to build arrows, but asked Lu Su and himself to board a turf with a banquet. The turf was covered with straw curtains, and many straw men were tied on the side of the ship. There were more than ten same turfs, leaving the river bank and looking at the Cao Jun Water Village in the north of the river.
When Lu Su saw that the fleet had sailed across the central line of the river and was getting closer to Cao Jun’s water camp, he couldn’t help but be frightened. However, Zhuge Liang looked leisurely and chatted and laughed, and frequently raised his glasses to Lu Su to drink. When Lu Su expressed his shock and suspicion, Zhuge Liang laughed loudly and said that 100,000 arrows were about to be built. Zijing should not be surprised. We just need to wait for Cao Jun to send these 100,000 arrows to obediently.
Speaking of this, the fleet was only about 200 meters away from Cao Jun Water Village. Zhuge Liang immediately ordered the war drums to be beaten and ordered the soldiers on the ship to shout and rush.
Turn your head and talk about Wu Fan.
Sleeping soundly in the dry village, I suddenly heard a shout of killing in the hazy state. After years of military service, Wu Fan was particularly sensitive to this sound, and he sat up from the bed. After listening carefully, he found that the sound was still far away and he should have not yet entered the Cao army's water camp.
Even so, as the governor of the water army, he could not fall back to sleep just because the enemy did not kill the water camp. He immediately put on his clothes and armor and walked out of the tent.
As soon as he left the military tent, Wu Fan realized that the fog was so big today that there was no one to see a few meters away.
The first thing Wu Fan thought of was to use the Tianbian skill to turn the weather into a clear state. However, when he used Tianbian, he received a message saying that the heavy fog was a special weather state at this time, and the Tianbian skill should not reverse it.
Wu Fan was confused and couldn't figure out what this special weather state meant. Could it be... a plot requirement? It seems that only in certain specific plot modes can certain factors that cannot be changed by external forces.
While wondering, the soldiers sent by Huang Zhong and Gao Shun, who were responsible for the rotation of the water camp, reported to Wu Fan that the fog on the river was too heavy and the enemy's virtual and real were unclear, so they had to temporarily use arrows to control him. They asked the Governor how to deal with it next.
When Wu Fan heard the four words "Arrow and arrows", coupled with the thick fog at this time, and the specific plot he had just thought of, he suddenly remembered something in his mind that happened before the Battle of Chibi in history. With a surprise that was still uncertain in his heart, he hurriedly led Huang Feidian over the claws and rushed towards the water camp.
At the same time, Zhuge Liang and Lu Su who were sitting in the siege were still drinking happily. The arrows shot by Cao's army had already filled the hull of the siege, and the scarecrow and the straw curtain were covered with dense arrows like hedgehogs. Lu Su finally understood Zhuge Liang's plan when he saw this, and was impressed by Zhuge Liang. His previous worries were wiped out, and he laughed happily with Zhuge Liang, and he was so happy.
Seeing that the hull was tilted because one side ate too many arrows, Zhuge Liang ordered the soldiers to drop the ship over again, so that the other side would continue to accept Cao's army's arrows, and by the way, they could balance the hull, killing two birds with one stone.
After the fog dissipated, under the astonished and regretful gaze of Cao Jun, he left leisurely with more than ten ships of arrows.
At the same time, Wu Fan had already jumped onto the serial warship and rushed to Huang Zhong and Gao Shun who were commanding soldiers to shoot arrows on the river. Seeing Wu Fan coming here in person, the two were stunned for a moment, and hurriedly bowed to Wu Fan. Wu Fan jumped off the horse, looked at the river from afar, and said to Huang Zhong:
"I heard that General Huang is skillful in bowing skills and arrows are shot without any slightest. I can see you today."
Huang Zhong said humbly:
"The Governor has been awarded too much. I am just a false reputation. Compared with the Governor, it is like a fireflies and a bright moon."
Huang Zhong's flattery made Wu Fan laugh and said:
"General Huang doesn't have to be too humble, just shoot him."
Huang Zhong received the order, so he took off the arrow on his back and put the arrow on the string. He was about to raise his bow and aim at the river, but Wu Fan reached out and stopped him:
"Use a rocket."
The Rockets cannot perform the combustion effect well in foggy weather. Note that they cannot perform the combustion effect well. In fact, the Rockets can still ignite flammable materials in foggy weather, but the effect is not as good as in sunny weather.
Although visibility is greatly affected in heavy fog weather, the shadow of Sun Jian’s fleet on the river is impossible to see. However, famous generals like Huang Zhong can still do the most basic way to distinguish positions by listening to sound.
After Huang Zhong pulled the bow full string, he aimed at the river surface but closed his eyes. He listened carefully with his ears for a while, and then suddenly released the rocket.
The burning arrows flew towards the river with a unique hazy halo in the thick fog. Then, all the crossbowmen had already replaced them with rockets under Wu Fan's order. With Huang Zhong's arrow shot out, thousands of rockets were released together.
However, after the fleet fell over, Zhuge Liang and Lu Su continued to drink happily and chat and laugh happily. He listened to the sound of Cao Jun's arrow shooting on the hull, which sounded nice like a drum beat.
Seeing that Cao's army had shot a lot of arrows on this hull, Lu Su said to Zhuge Liang:
"Kong Ming, the harvest of these more than ten straw boats has been quite good, so why not retreat. At this time, the arrows should have almost 100,000."
Zhuge Liang held the wine glass and looked outside the boat, shook his head and smiled:
"No, no, no, Cao's army has plenty of arrows, so we just borrow more from them. Anyway, we will still pay back as much as we want to do in the future and we will never owe it."
As soon as these words came out, both of them laughed knowingly.
At this moment, a rocket suddenly broke through the fog and nailed it to the bow of the ship where the two of them were riding. The burning resin on the arrowhead flowed down, and when it encountered the wooden hull, it burned even more happily.
Lu Su was shocked when he saw this. He didn't even notice the wine glass in his hand fell, and he just stared at the rocket blankly.
Zhuge Liang frowned at this time, and hurriedly turned his head to look towards Cao Jun Water Village. In the thick fog, he saw a hazy halo covering the sky and pressing down towards the fleet.
Zhuge Liang screamed "Not good". His previous free and easy attitude of chatting and laughing was gone. He threw away the wine glass in his hand and hurriedly shouted that his soldiers would row the boat back to the south bank...
In panic, the arrows he could not bear to have had a sense of luck, thinking that they could still bring them back to the south shore. However, no matter how fast the fleet ran, how could they be able to escape the arrows? Before his voice could be finished, thousands of rockets had already fallen. In addition to about half of them that fell into the water and were extinguished, nearly a thousand rockets fell on the more than ten straw boats.
In an instant, more than ten straw boats started to burn. At first, Sun Jian's soldiers were still rowing and steering, intending to drive the boat back to the south bank. However, the rapidly burning fire quickly steamed the soldiers in the cabin. Without the soldiers paddling and steering, more than ten straw boats were like kites with lost strings on the river surface, twisting and wafting along the river, and after floating for several miles, they sank into the river.
...
From the soldiers sent out the patrol ship, they learned that Sun Jianjun had only a dozen straw boats, and all of them were lit up and drifted down the river. Wu Fan was overjoyed: he once again defeated Zhuge Liang's conspiracy, and this feeling of historical disobedience was really good.
With this good mood, Wu Fan returned to Hanzhai. The time here is around 5 o'clock, and it is still early, so Wu Fan plans to sleep with this good mood.
But when he was about to return to the camp where he was resting, he met Xiao Qiao who had just gotten up and wanted to watch the fun after hearing the news.
The reason why Xiao Qiao came to Hefei was to see the final decisive battle between Cao Jun and Sun Jianjun with her own eyes. In her words, although the time traveling was annoying to her, since she had been traveling over, she had to see what the ancient war was like, otherwise wouldn't it be a waste of time traveling over.
From this, after Xiao Qiao learned that there was something in the water village, he immediately got up from the bed and planned to see what was going on.
Wu Fan said roughly about the story of this matter to Xiao Qiao. When Xiao Qiao heard it, he shook his head repeatedly and said:
"It's really a big trouble for Zhuge Liang to meet you. When talking about Zhuge Liang, historians in this world will evaluate him as a proud and arrogant guy. If someone in this world writes "Three Kingdoms", Zhuge Liang will definitely be the biggest clown among them. The author will add fuel to his failures and ignorance and shake it off."
Wu Fan laughed and couldn't help but say with longing in his eyes:
"That's certainly. And I, Wu Fan, will definitely become the number one protagonist, which is more dazzling than Liu Bei in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The most important thing is that I pursue the idea that human rights are higher than imperial power, just like the human rights advocated in our era are higher than sovereignty, and it is an eternal truth tested through time and civilization. Liu Bei's glory in our world is only temporary, but my light in this world can be permanent."
When Xiao Qiao saw Wu Fan’s more prouder talk, she couldn’t help but give him a blank look and said:
"You are so embarrassed that you are boasted, saying that you are fat and then you will take a few more breaths."
Instead, Xiao Qiao thought of another question and asked Wu Fan:
"Hey, what do you think will happen to Zhuge Liang when he goes back this time? He must be very depressed, right?"
Wu Fan laughed:
"It's not just depressed, I think he's even going to die now. However, this kid shouldn't have gone so easily. His thinking of correcting the Han Dynasty was very stubborn. In the history of Romance, Zhuge Liang deliberately acted as if nothing had happened after he made a military order with Zhou Yu, which puzzled Zhou Yu. After swaying the readers' appetite, he suddenly came to borrow an arrow. When the straw boat full of arrows returned to the Dongwu Water Village, Zhou Yu and his generals were shocked, and at the same time, he admired Zhuge Liang so much that he was admired. This was Luo Guanzhong's pen to deify Zhuge Liang, but I used it to vilify him. As for what he would do at this time, I don't know, but it is certain that a good show was being staged in the Sun Jian's military camp."
