"How did the general know about it?"
Guan Yu couldn't help but ask.
Yang Ling smiled and did not answer.
"General Yunchang, please take a seat. I have a show for you to watch tonight."
Although Guan Yu was puzzled, he could only follow Yang Ling's instructions and sit down with Guan Xing and Liao Hua beside him.
Not long after, there was another sound of footsteps outside.
Guan Yu looked up and was surprised again.
Pei Yuanshao, the commander of Yang Ling's soldiers, accompanied Pang Yi with several soldiers!
"The military advisor is here."
Yang Ling smiled and greeted Pang Tong.
However, when he saw the situation in the lobby, Pang Tong's heart sank, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.
Could it be that Yang Ling was aware of his plan?
impossible!
His plan was seamless and quite hidden. How could Yang Ling know about it?
Could it be that Guan Yu betrayed him?
Thinking of this, Pang Tong looked quite embarrassed!
He took a deep breath, glanced at Guan Yu coldly, and then said calmly,
"It's so late, what's the point of inviting me here, General?"
"Although the night is dark, the good show has just begun."
Yang Ling clapped his hands and laughed, then stood up immediately.
"Let's go, this general will show you a good show!"
He walked out first, with Zhao Yun, Ma Chao and others following closely behind him.
As for Guan Yu and Pang Tong, they were also carried away by the soldiers and walked outside.
The group of people soon arrived at the riverside.
I saw that the dock outside Jiangling City was brightly lit at the moment.
Countless soldiers of Cao Cao's soldiers were pouring out of the city, and then boarded the naval warships docked at the pier, waiting in full formation.
It seems that Yang Ling plans to send troops to pursue the defected Wei Yan.
Seeing this situation, a sneer appeared on Pang Tong's lips.
Wei Yan had already led his troops to flee, and the Sun-Liu coalition also sent naval forces to respond in Chibi.
If Yang Ling really dares to pursue him, he will only be defeated!
Everyone came to a newly built warship. After everyone was seated, Yang Ling gave the order,
"sail!"
As the dull horn sounded, the mighty Cao Jun navy set off and headed south along the Yangtze River!
In the cabin.
Yang Ling looked at Pang Tong who said nothing and said with a smile,
"Military advisor, this warship is brand new."
"I like it very much and plan to make it my ship."
"But since it is a ship, it should have a name. I intend to name it Luofeng,"
"What do you think, military advisor?"
Pang Tong's heart skipped a beat!
He called himself Fengchu, but Yang Ling named his ship Luofeng. Didn't this make it clear that he was going to kill him tonight?
Thinking of this, he was angry and scared, pointed at Guan Yu and cursed,
"Guan Yu, you old man! It's a shame that you and my lord are still sworn brothers. You just don't want to help me, and you betray me!"
Guan Yu can be said to be incapable of arguing.
He really planned to tell Yang Ling everything, but Yang Ling already knew everything before he said it!
Fortunately, Yang Ling took the initiative to explain to Guan Yu.
"Mr. Shiyuan mistakenly blamed General Guan. This matter has nothing to do with him."
"Has nothing to do with him?"
Pang Tong sneered, stared at Yang Ling and said,
"Then how did you find out?"
"If you don't want others to know, you have to do nothing yourself."
Yang Ling smiled slightly and said softly,
"Shi Yuan is just pretending to surrender. When the time is right, he will use the trick of pretending to surrender to severely damage our army."
"Am I right?!"
After hearing this, Pang Tong froze on the spot as if struck by lightning, looking at Yang Ling in disbelief.
In order to prevent the news from leaking, he did not even inform Liu Bei of his plan.
But how did Yang Ling know?
"My general has a conspiracy of ghosts and gods. It is only natural that he will see through your little tricks in advance."
Gan Ning on the side sneered.
Pang Tong was stunned for a moment, but suddenly he seemed to remember something, pointed at Yang Ling and said in silence,
"You...you...did you deliberately arrange Wei Yan's rebellion?"
"It seems that Shi Yuan is quite smart."
Yang Ling smiled and nodded in agreement.
In his previous life, he had watched Romance of the Three Kingdoms many times, so he would naturally not forget the most famous Battle of Red Cliff.
On the surface, the Battle of Chibi was won by Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu.
But don't forget, first Pang Tong pretended to defect to Cao Cao and offered a series of tricks, and only then did Chibi win!
Therefore, after Pang Tong arrived, Yang Ling simply used a trick to treat him in his own way!
He reprimanded Wei Yan's military stick, which was also a painful trick to show Pang Tong!
This Yang Ling is so cunning!
If Wei Yan really pretends to surrender, then my lord and the others will be in danger!
Thinking of this, Pang Tongyi's face turned pale for a moment!
Seeing his gesture, Yang Ling smiled with satisfaction and ignored him. Instead, he stood up and walked outside the cabin, leaning on the railing and looking at the river in the distance!
…
the other side.
Thousands of warships from the Sun-Liu coalition were docked on the river near Red Cliff.
"What time is it now?"
Cheng Pu asked Huang Gai,
Huang Gai took a look at the sky, made another estimate, and then replied,
"It's almost five o'clock in the morning!"
"In that case, Wei Yan's army should be arriving soon."
Cheng Pu touched his chin and said thoughtfully.
Jiangling is not far from Chibi. There is a favorable wind tonight and the river is flowing down. Wei Yan will be able to reach Chibi in a short time.
At this moment, a messenger hurriedly ran into the cabin,
"Reporting to the two generals, a large number of Cao's warships appeared on the river ahead!"
After hearing this, Huang Gai and Cheng Pu did not panic, but were refreshed!
coming!
The two of them immediately stood up and walked to the deck.
Although the night has darkened, fortunately it is cloudless tonight, and the bright moonlight shines on the earth.
Although they were far apart, with the bright moonlight, they could still vaguely see many warships on the river ahead.
"Quickly, deliver the signal as agreed in advance!"
Cheng Pu ordered.
Huang Gai did not dare to neglect, and immediately asked people to light three bonfires at the bows of the three warships!
In the dark night, these three bonfires can be said to be quite eye-catching!
After receiving the signal from the coalition forces, Cao Jun on the opposite side responded and also lit three bonfires!
Seeing this, Cheng Pu and Huang Gai breathed a sigh of relief.
According to the agreement with Pang Tong and Wei Yan in advance, after both sides lit three bonfires, Wei Yan would lead the fleet to slowly approach and accept the inspections of Cheng Pu and Huang Gai.
When everything is ready, the two will lead Wei Yan's army to Fankou to meet with Liu Bei, Sun Quan and others.
as expected.
After completing the signal transmission, Wei Yan's warship began to slowly approach here.
"Go down with the order and be prepared to defend yourself against the enemy!"
Huang Gai did not dare to be careless and immediately gave instructions to the soldiers around him.
However, at this moment, Cheng Pu, who had been staring closely at the river in front of him, suddenly said faintly,
"By the way, I remember we agreed on three bonfires, right?"
