Chapter 369 Battle of Chibi

Chapter 369 Battle of Chibi

At this moment, looking at Zhuge Liang on the altar at the foot of Nanping Mountain, Zhou Yu's expression was in a daze!
One day ago, when Lu Su appeared in front of him with Zhuge Liang's conditions, Zhou Yu had the attitude of treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

But right now, looking at Zhuge Liang who was devoting himself wholeheartedly, Zhou Yu suddenly had a firm thought in his heart, that is, Zhuge Liang could really borrow the east wind.

"Does the governor know the arrangement on the Seven Star Altar?" Suddenly, Lu Su asked.

Zhou Yu shook his head. Recently, because of Dongfeng, Zhou Yu hadn't thought about tea or slept at night. Even if he agreed to Zhuge Liang's conditions, Zhou Yu didn't put too much energy into it.

"The Seven Star Altar corresponds to the arrangement of the Big Dipper..."

Lu Su talked about every inch of the layout of the Seven Star Altar, which made Zhou Yu fascinated.

At the end of the month when the incense stick was halfway through, Zhou Yu came to his senses, and his position on Zhuge Liang was a little higher in his heart.

But the more this happened, the more Zhou Yu felt that Zhuge Liang was a greater threat.

"The governor is tired!" Zhou Yu said, then turned and left.

As for whether Zhuge Liang can borrow the east wind, it will not be known until Ming Yezi.

After returning to the handsome tent, Zhou Yu was still worried about the decisive battle tomorrow night, so the celebrity secretly invited Huang Gai over.Although the two had split publicly, in private, Huang Gai still obeyed Zhou Yu's orders.

"General Huang, are the ships ready for tomorrow night?" Zhou Yu asked.

"Don't worry, Commander, the general will mobilize more than [-] ships, most of which are fire boats." Huang Gai said resolutely.

"Where's the messenger? Did you return?" Zhou Yu continued to ask.

"I returned half an hour ago, and Meng Chen personally promised to go to the water village to meet him tomorrow."

Zhou Yu in classical Chinese nodded in satisfaction, as long as Meng Chen didn't find out, when Huang Gai led the fireboat into the water village tomorrow, Meng Chen's [-] sailors would be wiped out in ashes.

According to detailed investigations, Mengchen connected the water and land villages together. Once the fire is out of control, even if he has an army of 50, it will not help.

"That's good, but we still need to prepare more fire starters." Zhou Yu told Huang Gai to leave quietly.

The battle is not over yet, Zhou Yu doesn't want others to see Huang Gai having secret talks with him!
Having nothing to say all night, Zhou Yu, who had rested all night, was radiant. Perhaps it was Lu Su's words that completely relaxed his mind, and that's why he fell asleep peacefully last night.

"Come on, what's going on over there at the altar?" Zhou Yu asked casually.

"Reporting to the governor, Zhuge Liang has not rested for two days and two nights, no rice has been eaten, no water has been touched!" The guard replied truthfully.

Zhou Yu in classical Chinese frowned. He didn't eat or drink for two days and two nights. This Zhuge Liang was really desperate, but did he need to send someone to deliver some food and drink?

As soon as this idea appeared, Zhou Yu shook his head hastily. At this time, he must exercise restraint and not be disturbed by complicated private affairs.

"Wait, when did you have a personal relationship with Zhuge Liang?" Zhou Yu muttered self-deprecatingly, at this moment he had a slight understanding of Lu Su's approach.

During the whole day, both sides of the Yangtze River are very busy.

On the side of the Xiliang army camp, Meng Chen was busy mobilizing manpower to prepare for tonight's battle.

The same is true for Zhou Yu, but none of them noticed that the breeze that blows from time to time has already changed slightly.

Compared with the busy Jiangdong Army, the Xiliang Army is much more limited, and the soldiers are basically resting in groups of three or four.

This kind of tranquility before the war made some experienced veterans keenly aware of the strangeness.

"Uncle Wang, why was today's drill canceled?" A young Xiliang soldier asked.

Hearing this, the old soldier grinned: "What is the general's military order?"

"Replenish your energy and wait for the general order!"

"Hehe, the big battle is coming, so hurry up and rest." The old soldier said so, but the movements in his hands did not slow down at all.

"Get ready, in case you don't have someone to take advantage of tonight." The old pawn smiled, and then began to carefully examine the various equipment in his hand.

Seeing this, these newly recruited soldiers began to follow suit.

Such a scene is not unique, it can be seen everywhere in the entire Xiliang army camp.

The old soldiers lead the new soldiers, and the new soldiers learn from each other. This kind of hand-in-hand inheritance is one of the main reasons why the Xiliang Army's combat power continues to last.

Throughout the hundred days, the surface of the Yangtze River was considered to be calm, but after the sun went down, God suddenly changed his face.

"The wind has changed! The wind has changed!"

While Zhou Yu was waiting anxiously, Lu Su's shout suddenly came from the door.

Hearing this, Zhou Yu quickly rushed out of the handsome tent, staring closely at the handsome flag not far away, with a smug smile on his face.

"Beat the drum to raise the account!" A moment later, Zhou Yu laughed and gave the order.

In less than half a stick of incense, the entire commander's tent was crowded with people, and Zhou Yu did not give an order for a long time, which made the generals lose their composure.

"Great governor, everyone is here, why..."

"Is it all ready? But there is still one person missing!" Zhou Yu's words made the people present slightly stunned. They looked around and didn't seem to find anyone missing.

Not long after, there was a rush of footsteps outside the tent, and when everyone was looking for prestige, most of Huang Gai, who had been in military uniform all his life, had already entered.

"This..." The generals were confused for a moment, Huang Gai had not participated in the discussion for the past two months, but he appeared again today.

"Report to the Commander-in-Chief, the assembly of the [-] Death Battalion has been completed." Huang Gai bowed and bowed, which made the generals suddenly realize.

"Hahaha, there is old general Huang in Jiangdong, so be careful." Zhou Yu laughed loudly, then got up and pulled Huang Gai to his side.

At this moment, everyone was dumbfounded. All the previous events finally had a reasonable explanation at this moment.

"Old General Huang has agreed with Meng Chen to lead his troops to serve at midnight tonight, but how did Meng Chen know that this is our strategy." Zhou Yu said with a smile.

"In the past, the torture was a bitter trick!" Huang Gai explained with a laugh.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the entire commander's tent was harmonious, and the faces of all the generals were filled with joyful smiles.

"Huang Gai listened to the order. Tonight, at midnight, lead the fireboat to attack the Xiliang water village. We don't want to kill the enemy generals, but just light the fire." Zhou Yu coughed lightly and then ordered loudly.

Huang Zhong in Classical Chinese got up, then took three steps forward, turned around and bowed: "I will not disgrace my mission!"

……

Zhou Yu is making pre-war deployments, while Meng Chen is also calling all the generals to make the final arrangements in the Xiliang army camp on the other side.

Although there are many people on our side, we must not underestimate the fighting spirit of the Jiangdong Navy.

Moreover, tonight's battle is of great importance, and whether Jiangdong can be won in one fell swoop depends on it!
