"There are boats on the river~~~There are boats on the river~~~The enemy is attacking~~The enemy is attacking~~!"
The sentinels on the watchtower had just spotted the boats on the river when they heard gongs and drums suddenly ringing in the deep darkness, accompanied by shouts, as if the enemy had taken advantage of the darkness to reach the vicinity of their water stronghold. Want to launch a night attack.
In the cabin, Zhao Yi held the wine glass with a smile and clinked it with Sun Shangxiang, and said outside: "Shout, let everyone shout at the top of their lungs. Whoever shouts the loudest will give him a glass of wine~!"
"Okay boss~ Oh no, okay military advisor~!"
Ma Liu and others took the gongs prepared in advance and beat them "bang bang bang", shouting "charge", "kill" and "capture the thief Cao alive".
But in the Cao army camp, the sudden movement shocked Prime Minister Cao and jumped up from the bed.
Wearing a cloak, he walked out of the tent under the escort of Xu Chu and others. He looked towards the river by the light of the camp fire, and felt the shouts of killing in the faint thick fog. The shadow of the boat was looming, and it seemed that the opponent's army was approaching. Launch a charge.
"hiss......"
Cao Cao took a breath and said: "Younger Zhou Yu dares to launch an attack in such a thick fog. He really doesn't take our army seriously. Come on, order all the warships and step forward to meet the enemy!"
As soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, he suddenly raised his hand and said, "Wait a minute."
He thought for a while and slowly shook his head.
"The fog is low and the visibility is poor. The enemy's attack is powerful but slow...a trap, it must be a trap! They want to lure our army out of the water stronghold and fight decisively on the river, but our army's training is still insufficient. At this time, the hasty confrontation played into the enemy's hands, and the vicious Zhou Yu..."
Cao Cao thought he had seen through the opponent's plan, and waved his hand and said: "Give me an order, no one is allowed to come out of the stronghold to meet the enemy! Zhang Liao and Zhang He, gather the archers and crossbowmen on the riverside and give me thousands of arrows!"
"Yes, Prime Minister!"
The generals took the order and moved together. Zhang Liao and Zhang He each led thousands of crossbowmen, lined up on the left and right of the river, and raised their crossbows in the direction where the killing shouts were most concentrated.
"Everyone obeys the order~~~~shoot the arrow!"
"Buzz buzz~"
At Zhang Liao's order, nearly ten thousand crossbowmen fired together, and arrows flew towards the center of the river like locusts.
But Zhao Yi asked the soldiers to beat gongs and drums and shout for a while. When they heard the movement on the shore, he ordered everyone to hide behind the reinforced wooden boards and completely exposed one side of the fleet to the shooting direction of Cao Ying's water village.
"Hey, you stinky girl, you've just had a few drinks and you're not ready anymore? The main event is just about to begin, listen."
Zhao Yi stretched out his ears and heard a buzzing sound approaching quickly from a distance.
At this time, Sun Shangxiang's face was like a peach blossom, and her eyes were blurred. It was obvious that she had drunk enough.
"You stinky guy, what are you listening to?"
As she spoke, she had already thrown her helmet aside. Perhaps because her body was getting hot from drinking, she also untied all her leather armor and threw it aside, revealing the small clothes underneath that were soaked with sweat and clinging to her body.
When Ma Liu and other soldiers saw this scene, their eyes almost popped out, but soon they all turned their backs and even lowered the bamboo curtains in the cabin.
Sun Shangxiang had just stood up halfway when an overwhelming barrage of arrows hit their fleet.
"Buzz buzz~"
“Duh duh duh~”
Tens of thousands of arrows struck at the same time, and their power can be imagined. They immediately shook the wooden boat violently. Sun Shangxiang was unsteady and was about to fall, but Zhao Yi stretched out his hand to catch him.
When the ship shook again, Sun Shangxiang staggered and fell into Zhao Yi's arms.
With the warm fragrance of nephrite and the catalysis of alcohol, Zhao Yi followed his primitive instinct without much thought.
Outside the cabin, thousands of arrows poured down crazily.
In the cabin, thousands of arrows poured down crazily.
Ma Liu and others turned their backs to the center, looking embarrassed, but their admiration for Zhao Yi in their hearts could not be increased.
Just imagine who can still be in the mood to perform the courtesy of Zhou Gong when thousands of arrows are fired? There is no one in the world better than Zhao Hongfei.
Ma Liu and others, who had already received orders from Zhao Yi, felt that the hull of the ship had obviously begun to shift to one side. Knowing that it was caused by too many arrows, they immediately turned the bow of the ship, exposing the other side of the ship to Cao Jun, and promptly Beat gongs and drums to welcome the second wave of arrows.
As for Cao Jun's water stronghold, after several rounds of volleys, Zhang Liao ordered the arrows to be stopped and let the soldiers in the watchtower observe the river.
The result made everyone extremely confused, because the enemy ships on the river neither approached nor left, but just staggered in the river, as if to demonstrate to them.
"Jiangdong rats... let go of the arrows! Keep firing the arrows!"
Cao Cao was worried that there was a deception, so he still did not dare to send troops to attack, so he had to continue firing arrows.
However, Cao's camp was at a disadvantage tonight, and he did not dare to fire rockets. He could only fire arrows in the dark to repel the enemy.
Looking at the thirty boats on Zhao Yi's side, they were all covered with arrows, without any gaps left.
Zhao Yi, who had finished his work and stood up in his clothes, held out an arrow with its head exposed, used it as a toothpick to pick it in his mouth, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, you know this and I know it, I won't tell anyone else."
Sun Shangxiang, with messy hair and pink face, glared at Zhao Yi fiercely, but for the first time, he didn't say anything back.
"Young ladies, we have almost collected the arrows and are heading home~! Oh, by the way, don't forget to thank Prime Minister Cao for the arrows~"
Zhao Yi lazily raised his hand and gave the order to retreat. The fleet moved slowly on the river, which seemed a bit laborious.
"Thank you, Prime Minister Cao, for the arrow~~~~!"
"Thank you, Prime Minister Cao, for the arrow~~~~!"
"Thank you, Prime Minister Cao, for the arrow~~~~!"
On the dark river surface, waves of thanks were carried by the night wind towards Cao's camp, which made everyone in Cao's army puzzled.
"hiss......"
Cao Cao thought for a while and figured out the reason, frowned and said: "This little Zhou Yu, how dare you be so bold?"
"Prime Minister, do you want to send troops to pursue us?"
Facing Zhang Liao's question, Cao Cao shook his head and said: "No, it's just some cleverness and has nothing to do with the overall situation. If you send troops rashly, you will fall into the opponent's plan."
Cao Cao was actually angry, but he tried his best to show that he was in control of everything in front of his subordinates, which allowed Zhao Yi to return to the camp quickly against the wind.
By the time the fleet returned to the camp, it was already dawn. Lu Su and his men were standing by the river, with an extremely wonderful expression.
"This...these arrows are..."
The thirty boats could no longer see their original appearance. They had been covered in layers of arrows and were swaying as if they would topple over at any time.
At this time, Zhao Yi opened the bamboo curtain of arrows and emerged from it with a red face. He cupped his hands and said: "Hehehe~ Brother Zijing, let someone count them. The 100,000 arrows ordered by General Zhou are all here. ."
"This...this is really unbelievable...Brother Kong Ming, how did you do it?"
Lu Su couldn't believe his eyes, but those arrows were right in front of him, and he couldn't help but not believe them.
At this moment, a shorter soldier walked quickly behind Zhao Yi with his head lowered, as if he was afraid that someone would see him.
Lu Su felt that something was wrong. He glanced at the soldier's back and felt that his walking posture was a bit strange.
"Brother Zijing, my mission has been completed. Can I go back and rest? I'm so sleepy~~~"
"Of course! Leave this to me, Brother Kong Ming. I will also help you explain it to the Governor."
Lu Su cheered up and waved his hand to order the soldiers to start counting the arrows.
But he was very sure that there must be more than 100,000 arrows on these thirty ships.
