The seven soap flags in the north, according to Dou, Niu, Nv, Xu, Wei, Room, and Wall, form the posture of Xuanwu.
The seven white flags in the west, according to Kui, Lou, Wei, Subaru, Bi, Qi, and Shen, occupy the prestige of the white tiger.
The seven red flags in the south, according to the well, ghost, willow, star, Zhang, wing, and Zhen, form the shape of a red bird.
On the second floor, there are 64 yellow flags around it, which represent the 64 hexagrams of King Wen.The 64 yellow flags are divided into eight directions, and eight flags are erected in each direction.
Zhuge Liang led six little boys, dressed in Taoist robes, on the top floor.Zhuge Liang sat cross-legged in front of the altar, and there was a little boy in each of the four corners of the altar.
Of the little boys at the four corners of the altar, the boy on the east holds a sword in his arms, and the boy on the west holds a command flag.The boy in the south is holding a conch in his hand, and the boy in the north is holding a big axe.
Behind Zhuge Liang, there are still a boy standing on the left and right sides.Each of these two boys carried a white flag, which represented the direction of the wind, and when Zhuge Liang gave an order, the boy waved the flag to the east, and the east wind came.
The other boy was carrying a black flag, which represented the power of the wind.Zhuge Liang gave an order, if the boy shakes the flag slowly, the wind will come slowly, if he shakes the flag quickly, the wind will come quickly.
Zhuge Liang climbed onto this altar after bathing and changing clothes in the evening, and now it was the third watch of the night, Zhuge Liang did not move at all.
Zhuge Liang didn't move, the six little boys who accompanied him all dozed off, standing there yawning again and again.
At this time, Zhuge Liang on the altar was not in a hurry, but Zhou Yu who was waiting in the camp was in a hurry.He went outside after a while to check the direction of the wind, but the east wind never arrived.
"This Zhuge Kongming couldn't just be talking in plain language. He said that the east wind blows at night. Why is it almost three o'clock now, and the east wind hasn't come yet?"
"If the east wind doesn't come, it will be dawn soon?" Cheng Pu said impatiently in the tent.
Now not only Cheng Pu is in a hurry, but Huang Gai is also in a hurry.His dozens of clippers filled with hay, tung oil, brimstone and other fire starters are ready.Now wait for the east wind to rise, and then take the Qin camp to feign surrender.
"Dang, dang, dang."
Three gongs sounded, it was the soldiers in the barracks who were in charge of telling the time.
"Great governor, is it already three o'clock?"
"Whether Kong Ming's words are credible or not, how can this person borrow east wind from God?" Cheng Pu was anxious like an ant on a hot pot.
"Old General Cheng, Mr. Kong Ming never speaks nonsense, let's wait." Zhou Yu said to Cheng Pu.
At this time, although Zhou Yu tried to persuade Cheng Pu, in fact, he was in a state of turmoil in his heart.It was already the third watch, and if Dongfeng did not come, the opportunity would be delayed.
At the same time, when the third watch came.On the seven-star altar in Nanping Mountain, Zhuge Liang stepped on the seven-star step, danced the sword in his hand, and muttered words.
"Qingfeng, the wind direction is east."
"Mingyue, the wind should slow down first."
Zhuge Liang shook his sword, and ordered to the two Taoist boys.
After Zhuge Liang's order, the two Taoist boys were yawning, and they woke up instantly.
The Taoist boy named Qingfeng waved the flag vigorously to the east, and the Taoist boy named Mingyue also waved the flag vigorously.
Fankou, the camp of Wu Jun's water village.
"Swish! Swish! Swish!"
Tonight was originally calm and windless, but as Zhuge Liang's ceremony was about to end, the flag of the Fankou Camp unexpectedly fluttered gently, making a rustling sound.
Within the time of a stick of incense, the wind became stronger and stronger, and the sound of "huhu" gradually came from outside.
There was a lot of wind outside, and Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and others naturally heard it clearly in the large tent of the Chinese army.
"It's windy!"
Zhou Yu stood up suddenly, and walked out of the tent.
"Ha ha!"
"Mr. Kong Ming sincerely does not deceive me, the east wind is coming, the east wind is coming." Zhou Yu raised his head to the sky and shouted.
"General Huang, you can go now."
"The rest of the ships and soldiers are all on standby. When they see the fire, they go straight to the Qin army's camp." Zhou Yu's order was conveyed.
Chapter 339 It's time for you
Zhuge Liang borrowed the east wind as promised, and when the east wind came, Zhou Yu immediately ordered Huang Gai to surrender to Qin.Huang Gai ordered a total of seventy fast boats, all of which were loaded with sulfur, hay, tung oil and other fire starters.
The bows of these boats are inlaid with three-foot-long iron nails.What is the function of these iron nails? Later, when these fire boats of Huang Gai, with full horsepower, rushed towards the Qin army ships.
Once the ships of these two families hit each other head-on, the iron nail hit the Qin Jun's hull, and you couldn't separate them at that time.
Li Chen was not stupid enough to connect all the boats together with iron cables like Cao Cao.Without the chain of iron chains, the fire boat of Soochow can only be replaced by iron nails.
It can be seen from this that for the purpose of burning the Qin army today, Soochow has done a lot of homework.
Huang Gai led about seventy fast boats to the Qin camp to feign surrender. These boats were covered with spreaders, and under the spreaders were all hay, sulfur and other fire starters.
With the help of Zhuge Liang's borrowed Dongfeng, Huang Gai's fast boats can be said to be even faster.
However, Zhou Yu has his Zhang Liang plan, and Li Chen also has his own wall ladder.Li Chen's greatest advantage lies in his familiarity with the development of history.
When Huang Gai came to Qin Ying for the first time to feign surrender, Li Chen already had a counterpart.Now the ships in the first row of the Qin army are all obsolete broken ships, and these ships are also loaded with sulfur, hay, tung oil and other things that ignite the fire.
Let's put it this way, Li Chen is now waiting for Huang Gai's fireboat to arrive.Once Huang Gai's fire boat collided with Li Mu's prepared fire boat, there would be a big commotion.
And now it was night, not to mention that he couldn't see his fingers, but the visibility was at most ten or twenty paces away.Once Huang Gai's fire boat collided with the fire boat that Li Mu had prepared in advance, the commotion would turn into misleading Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu mistakenly thought that Huang Gai had succeeded in setting fire to the Qin camp, and that if all the ships in Jiangdong were exhausted by then, Zheng Chenggong and others would have the opportunity to fight decisively.
The seventy ships owned by Huang Gai were all flying the Qingya flag, and this Qingya flag was also the signal agreed by Huang Gai and Li Chen.Along the way, the Qin army had no intention of stopping Huang Gai's ships with the Qingya flag.
"Hey, is the person coming in front of you General Huang?"
Suddenly, several fast boats came in front, and Huang Gai couldn't help shivering when he heard this sound.
Huang Gai was someone who had entered the Qin camp. Huang Gai recognized this voice. This person was Qi Jiguang, the deputy commander of the Qin army's navy.
Huang Gai understands that someone who can become the deputy commander of the Qin Army and the Navy must have real skills. Huang Gai is afraid that Qi Jiguang will see something.
Qi Jiguang led a few soldiers onto Huang Gai's boat, and asked Huang Gai, "General Huang, are these ships full of food, grass, and military equipment?"
Hearing Qi Jiguang's words, Huang Gai quickly nodded and said, "That's right, General Qi. These ships are full of food, grass and military equipment I brought."
Qi Jiguang lifted the curtain covering the ship, looked at it, and found that the ship was indeed full of food, grass and military equipment.
"Well, Old General Huang really really wanted to surrender to Qin, and he made a great contribution this time."
"When Wu is broken, my king will definitely reward you a lot." Qi Jiguang said to Huang Gai.
When Qi Jiguang said this, his eyes quietly aimed at the boat behind.In fact, Qi Jiguang had already seen the tricks on Huang Gai's ships.
Among the ships of Huang Gai, the draft of the first ship was very deep, indicating that the cargo loaded on the first ship was very heavy.And the draft of the boat behind is very shallow, which means that the things loaded on the boat behind are very light.
In fact, this is exactly the case. Huang Gai's first ship was loaded with food, grass and military equipment, which was used to deal with the inspection of the Qin army.On the ships behind, they were filled with fire starters such as sulfur, hay, and tung oil.
"Don't dare to take credit, don't dare to take credit!" Huang Gai said hastily.
"General Huang, the King of Qin wants to summon you. As for these people, they have their own arrangements." Qi Jiguang said to Huang Gai.
Hearing that King Qin wanted to summon him, Huang Gai's heart tightened.In this case, the plan will be changed.Huang Gai thought to himself how he would direct the fire to the Qin camp once he left.
But at this time, Qi Jiguang was waiting for him here, if Huang Gai didn't go, it would arouse Qi Jiguang's suspicion.Now they are still far away from the main camp of the Qin army. Many ships of the Qin army patrolled the sentry along the way.
At this time, once the purpose is revealed, all previous efforts will be wasted.
Thinking of this, Huang Gai winked at the two lieutenants behind him, Ding Feng and Xu Sheng, as if to say that the matter of burning the Qin camp must be left to you two.
"Old General Huang, if not, the last general will go for you. We all followed you to the King of Qin. If you leave, if something goes wrong, I'm afraid we will be hard-pressed."
"I will go to see King Qin for you. If King Qin has any orders, I will tell you when I come back." Ding Feng cupped his hands towards Huang Gai and said.
Ding Feng and Xu Sheng understood that whoever went to see the King of Qin would be like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth.When the fire burns up, the person who went to see the King of Qin has no life left.Huang Gai is so old, Ding Feng, how could Xu Sheng put him in danger.Therefore, Ding Feng said that he would go to see Li Chen for Huang Gai.
"Nonsense, King Qin is summoning me, not you."
"This kind of thing, do you just replace it at will?" Huang Gai rolled his eyes and reprimanded Ding Feng.
"General Qi, let's go see the King of Qin." After speaking, Huang Gai said to Qi Jiguang.
Huang Gai boarded Qi Jiguang's boat and disappeared on the vast river.Seeing this scene, Ding Feng and Xu Sheng couldn't help but twitch their hearts.
"Old General Huang, I'm afraid there will be more bad luck than good luck." Ding Feng said with a sigh.
"You and I must set fire to the Qin camp, and we must live up to the high expectations of General Huang." Xu Sheng said to Ding Feng.
Huang Gai boarded Qi Jiguang's boat and followed him to the back camp to meet Li Chen, Ding Feng and Xu Sheng. They took the seventy-odd fast boats to the main camp to surrender.
"General Qi, I don't know what the King of Qin is asking me for?" On the boat, Huang Gai wanted to get some news from Qi Jiguang.
"Old General Huang came to surrender. The King of Qin wants to ask about the strength of the Wu army on the opposite side? The deployment of troops in this water village."
"General Huang is considered to be in a high position, these circumstances should be clear." Qi Jiguang said to Huang Gai.
This book is organized and produced by the official account.Pay attention to vx【】Read books and get cash red envelopes!
Qi Jiguang's remarks can be said to be watertight, so Huang Gai did not have any doubts.Instead, he hurriedly replied: "Of course I know this. Although I can't say exactly, I can still give a general idea."
3 Chapter Forty
Qi Jiguang took Huang Gai to Houying and boarded a big boat.As soon as Huang Gai entered the cabin, he saw a row of swordsmen standing on the left side of the cabin, and a row of binding hands standing on the right side.
The hands of the knife and ax hand held a round shield and dagger, and the hands of the bound hand held iron chain shackles. When Huang Gai saw this battle, he suddenly cried out in his heart.
Huang Gai entered the cabin and found that Li Chen was somewhere in the cabin.Instead, standing with the knife and axe and the binding hands, Huang Gai was startled, "kick, kick, kick" a few steps and then backed away.Huang Gai stepped back suddenly, bumping into Qi Jiguang's body.
"General Qi, what's the meaning of this?" Huang Gai asked, pointing to the knife and ax hands and the binding hands in the cabin.
"Of course I took General Huang to meet the King of Qin?" Qi Jiguang replied as a matter of course.
"It's just that King Qin wants to invite General Huang to watch a big show later, so he needs to dress up General Huang." Qi Jiguang continued to say to Huang Gai.
Huang Gai is also a lot of fools, he doesn't understand what Qi Jiguang's so-called "dressing him up" means.This is clearly intended to tie him up and bring him to King Qin.
"Watching a big play?"
"I need to tie him up to watch some big show?" Thinking of this, Huang Gai couldn't help being startled, and secretly said: "It's broken, the Qin army must have seen the strategy of the governor, right?"
Huang Gai has been in war for a long time, so now he doesn't understand.Suddenly, Huang Gai wanted to pull out the long knife at his waist in desperation.
However, Qi Jiguang firmly held down Huang Gai's hand that drew the sword, preventing him from moving an inch.Huang Gai is a veteran, whether in terms of force or strength, he is Qi Jiguang's opponent.After a dozen or so rounds, Qi Jiguang punched Huang Gai to the ground.Immediately, several bondage hands rushed up and shackled Huang Gai with iron chains.
After bringing Huang Gai under control, Qi Jiguang took him to Qianying to meet Li Chen.Although the generals of Soochow are not very good on land, they are excellent in water.The reason why Huang Gai was bound with iron chains was because he was afraid that he would jump into the river and report back.
Qi Jiguang brought Huang Gai to the front camp. At this time, Li Chen was leading a group of generals, watching from the deck.It's just that the surface of the river is dark now, and the visibility is not high.
"King Qin, I am kind enough to surrender you, why do you treat me like this?"
"King Qin, you are not the Ming Lord." Huang Gai yelled loudly when he saw Li Chen.
Li Chen glanced at Huang Gai, and said angrily, "Old General Huang, stop howling here. At this time, you are still pretending to be a big-tailed wolf in front of me."
"Your Zhou Dudu of Soochow, and Mr. Zhuge, first used the trick of bitterness, and then used the trick of false surrender. This time, you are going to use the trick of attacking me with fire?"
"I'll tell you today, no matter how many tricks you use, I only have one trick, and that is to follow the trick."
Hearing Li Chen's words, Huang Gai's expression changed again and again.It turns out that people have seen their strategy from the very beginning, and now they have set up a complete set, waiting for them to drill into it.
Huang Gai wanted to go back to report the news, but now he was trapped in the enemy camp, and he was chained and shackled, making it difficult to move.
"Great Governor, Mr. Zhuge."
"Don't come here, don't fall into Qin Jun's scheme." At this time, Huang Gai could only sit in his heart and shout.
At the same time, Ding Feng and Xu Sheng were carrying more than [-] small boats, and they also vaguely saw countless Qin army ships ahead.
It's around the third watch now, and there's a vast expanse of darkness everywhere, and it's impossible to see anything clearly.The reason why Ding Feng and Xu Sheng thought that the battleships of the Qin army were ahead was because there were dozens of ships with lights in front of them.On the deck of this ship, there is still a sentry post of the Qin army.
In fact, these ships were all target ships of the Qin army, and they were used to practice artillery aiming.Although the ships are large, they are all empty shells.They didn't even have the basic ability to move, and Li Chen ordered people to temporarily drag them over by boat.
These boats are filled with sulfur, hay, tung oil and other things.Once the gas fire, among other things, the scene is absolutely spectacular.
"The battleship of the Qin Army is ahead, and the time has come for the brothers to make contributions."
"Ignite, hit it." Ding Feng yelled, driving a fast boat, and hit it forward.
The more than [-] Soochow fast boats, all the igniters on the boats have been ignited, and they rushed forward like fire dragons.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The ships on both sides wanted to collide, and there was a loud noise.The bows of these fire boats in Soochow are all inlaid with three-foot-long iron nails.With this sudden collision, the iron nails crashed directly into the top of Qin Jun's ship, and the ships on both sides were connected together.
