Cao Cao is also extremely proud, thinking that he has great fortune and great fortune, and the enemy generals will voluntarily surrender. As long as the six counties in Jiangdong are taken down, the unification of the world is just around the corner!

After hearing the news, Xiao Yi quickly returned to the camp, but he didn't say anything about Huang Gai's surrender, and only secretly issued two orders:

One is to let the Xuanjia Army, the Siege Camp, the Danyang Army, the Xuezi Army...the direct descendants of all ministries clean up the weeds and debris in the camp again, prepare a lot of water, and take all fire prevention measures!

The second is to order Cai Mao and Zhang Yun's navy and serial warships to open the chains to ensure the maneuverability of the ships. At the same time, the gate of the water village is strictly guarded, and no foreign ships are allowed to enter!

In the original history, Huang Gai used [-] fireboats to burn Cao Jun's water and land strongholds by swindling surrender and taking advantage of the strong wind in the southeast, causing Cao Jun to suffer heavy casualties. Is history repeating itself?

But when I think about it carefully, I feel that the possibility is unlikely. As early as when Wulin set up camp, Cao Jun had already prepared for fire prevention. It doesn't work, does it?

With the wisdom of Zhou Yu and Kong Ming, knowing that fire attacks are useless, they would definitely not act rashly. As for "feigning surrender and entering the camp, the inside should cooperate with the outside", it is not very likely, right?

According to intelligence, Huang Gai's headquarters has only [-] soldiers. Compared with the hundreds of thousands of Cao's troops, it is simply a drop in the ocean. Even if they enter the Cao's camp, there will be no waves. carry on!

Could it be because of the butterfly effect that Huang Gai really came to surrender, or did he have other evil intentions? Xiao Yi couldn't make up his mind for a while, so he could only respond to all changes with the same and wait and see the development of the situation!

As for guarding against false surrender, Xiao Yi didn't need to remind him at all. Cao Cao was suspicious by nature and had already made preparations. Fifty thousand elite armored soldiers were ambushing on the bank of the Yangtze River, and hundreds of warships of the navy were hiding on both sides. In the reeds...

If Huang Gai really comes to surrender, then everything will be easy to talk about. They will have good wine and food, high-ranking officials and generous hospitality. If they pretend to surrender, they will be guaranteed to die without a place to bury them!

"Kill!--Kill! Kill!"

"Look, Prime Minister, the direction of Sanjiangkou is on fire. It seems that Huang Gai has agreed to raise troops and is burning the enemy's food and grass!"

........................

Time passed, the jade rabbit slanted westward, it was almost midnight, and there was no movement on the south bank of the Yangtze River. Just when everyone in Cao Ying was anxious, thinking that Huang Gai had repented temporarily, something happened suddenly!

The direction of Sanjiangkou - the flames are soaring into the sky, the sky is red, and there are faint shouts of killing. It seems that Huang Gai has really raised his troops. He is burning the ordnance, food and grass in Jiangdong, and started a fierce battle with the defenders!

However, many people felt that the flames on the south bank were a little weaker, the shouts of killing were very rapid, and there were rumbling drums, which should be dispatching troops. Could it be that Huang Gai's burning of food was not going well, and he encountered strong resistance?

The matter of surrender was leaked, and Zhou Yu mobilized a large number of troops to suppress Huang Gai's rebellion. There was a lot of discussion for a while, and no one dared to judge lightly!

"Woo! - woo! woo!"

"There are ships coming from the south bank, and they are all warships from Jiangdong!"

………………

At the second watch, the fire on the south bank gradually weakened, and the shouts of killing stopped, but two fleets appeared on the river, chasing one after the other, heading straight for Cao Ying...

With the bright moonlight, you can vaguely see dozens of ships in front of them, all with cyan flags on them, and an upside-down "yellow" general flag, which should be Huang Gai's surrender team!

Hundreds of warships behind were flying the flag with the word "Gan" - facing the wind and breaking the waves, trying to catch up. The two sides continued to shoot arrows and attack each other's warships.

Judging from the situation, Huang Gai raised his troops according to the contract, but when he was burning food and grass, he encountered fierce resistance from the Jiangdong Army.

Sun Quan and Zhou Yu were furious and refused to let the traitor go, so they sent the first brave general Gan Ning to chase and kill them. The two fleets chased and fought all the way, and gradually approached the north bank of the river!

"Order Cai Mao and Zhang Yun, the two governors, to immediately dispatch the naval warships to stop the pursuers and meet General Huang!"

"Let Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan's armored soldiers also prepare for battle. As soon as Huang Gai's team landed, they immediately confiscated their weapons and put them under strict surveillance. Anyone who dares to resist - kill without mercy!"

Although the burning of food and grass failed, Huang Gai knew very well that Jiangdong's reality was very useful for defeating the enemy. Naturally, he couldn't do nothing. Therefore, Cao Cao mobilized his troops, both to respond and to guard against!

Victory on the battlefield often involves unscrupulous means. Don't look at the fierce battle between Huang Gai and Gan Ning. Who knows if they are really fighting or just pretending to be cruel. This has to be guarded against!

"Boom!—Boom! Boom!"

Amidst the rumble of war drums, a large number of Jingzhou navy troops were dispatched. Hundreds of warships formed a formation of two dragons out of the water. First, dozens of walking boats were let go, and then the pursuers were stopped!

Next, the two fleets fought together, arrows rained at each other, boulders flew randomly, and violent collisions occurred from time to time, and then hand-to-hand combat began. Because the sky was dark and the situation was chaotic, there were many cannibalism!

Although Gan Ning's sailors were brave, but their numbers were not superior, and they were too close to Cao Ying's water village, they inevitably had some scruples in their hearts. Seeing that they could not gain any advantage, they had to withdraw their troops and go back. Water village!

At the same time, dozens of boats docked, and hundreds of soldiers came down, most of whom suffered battle injuries. The leader, veteran Huang Gai, was wearing heavy armor, holding an iron whip, and his head was full of white hair. , got an arrow on the shoulder, and wrapped it up with a war robe!

Unexpectedly, after these people went ashore, they took off their armor and put down their weapons on their own initiative, and then lined up in a neat line.

The generals of Cao Jun who were in charge of monitoring felt a little embarrassed, and quickly sent them all kinds of food, helped them bandage their wounds, and secretly checked dozens of ships. There was only a small amount of food and grass on them, and there was nothing suspicious!

There are all kinds of signs that Huang Gai really surrendered. Everyone in Cao Ying opened their eyes wide and did not see anything suspicious. If there is a slight problem, it is that these Jiangdong soldiers are too weak. Still coughing, just like a group of sick and consumptive ghosts!

Then again, these surrendered soldiers fled and fought all the way, and many of them were wounded, and their appearance was a little tattered, which is understandable, or the Jiangdong Army's food and grass were not enough, and the soldiers were starved and thin, otherwise they Will not rebel!

"Huang Gai, a veteran from the east of the Yangtze River, has come to cross the river to return to obedience. The matter of burning food has not been completed, so I ask the Prime Minister to punish him!"

"Haha--the old general abandoned the dark and turned to the bright, and returned to the imperial army, just like a little boy who went to Zhou, and Han Xin who returned to Han. He has made great contributions to the country and the country. How can he be punished if he is not rewarded by the truth?"

Cao Cao is known as a traitor, and his ability to win people's hearts is no worse than the big-eared Ah Fu. He personally leads a group of civil and military officials to meet the veteran Huang Gai on the shore, and comforts him with kind words after the meeting!

Seeing that Huang Gai was wounded and his battle robe was torn, he hurriedly sent for a doctor to draw an arrow to heal Huang Gai's wound, then took off his own battle robe and put it on for Huang Gai himself. The latter was moved to tears Hengliu, knelt down and kowtowed!

Next, everyone returned to the main tent of the Chinese army, where a grand feast was set up to welcome Huang Gai and others to celebrate.

During the banquet, Cao Cao also made indirect remarks, asking Jiangdong's army about the facts and facts, but Huang Gai knew everything and talked endlessly. He explained the situation in Jiangdong clearly and revealed a lot of military secrets, which made everyone in Caoying's suspicion go away!

From the beginning to the end, Xiao Yi kept watching with cold eyes, and he also didn't see any problem. It was neither a fire attack nor a false surrender. Could it be that Huang Gai really surrendered, or there was a bigger conspiracy?

Chapter 1288 What is life like when you sing to wine?

In order to celebrate the split of the enemy camp and the return of Huang Gai, and to wish for the peace of Jiangdong and the unification of the world, Cao Cao decided to hold a grand banquet in the barracks to reward the soldiers of the army and inspire morale!

After the order was issued, Cao Jun immediately got ready. It took only ten days to build a five-foot-high round platform with a circumference of more than [-] steps in the center of the camp. Drum music and banners were displayed on it, which looked majestic and majestic. !

The tenth year of Jian'an - summer, April [-]th, the day of the big banquet came: Cao Jun's hundreds of thousands of soldiers, each received three catties of meat and two jugs of wine, and all drank to their heart's content!

Cao Cao also officially announced that after the leveling of Jiangdong, all the soldiers who participated in the war will be exempted from paying taxes to their families for three years, and rewards will be given to those who make meritorious deeds.

"Congratulations to the prime minister--benevolent to the world, the world surrenders!"

"Stepping down Jiangdong, playing the song of victory early! -- Stepping down Jiangdong, playing the song of victory early!"

........................

At nightfall, surrounded by civil servants and generals, Cao Cao, wearing a golden armor and a big red cloak, stepped up to the high platform and sat on the main seat. Looking around, he looked refreshed, as if he looked ten years younger!

Just ten days ago, Cao Cao was wavering, worried that his strategic decision would be wrong, that the Eastern Expedition would not be able to win, and that the great achievement of unifying the world could only be handed over to future generations, and he made wedding clothes for nothing!

Unexpectedly, overnight, the situation turned upside down, the Jiangdong Group was divided internally, Huang Gai led his troops to surrender, and the originally chaotic battle situation also appeared the dawn of victory!

According to Huang Gai's story: After half a year of confrontation, the Jiangdong Group was also exhausted, food and grass were scarce, and the source of soldiers was exhausted. The soldiers were very tired, and the internal war weariness was extremely high!

There are more and more Jiangdong gentry, civil servants and military generals advocating surrender. Huang Gai is just a leader, and more people will come later. The day when the Jiangdong Group collapses is not far away!

Once Sun Quan and Zhou Yu are defeated, Liu Bei will not be able to support him alone, and he will not escape the end. After Cao Jun flattened Jiangdong, with his military power of invincible battles, Hanzhong, Yizhou, Jiaozhou... can be passed down, and the Kyushu in the world will return to unity !
