If you think you can find the other party's weaknesses, you will be exploited by the other party.
If you are not extremely arrogant, you will always think that your ingenuity is invincible.
It can be said that it was this arrogance that brought Zhou Yu to this point.
However, Zhou Yu was not convinced by this statement at all.
"Arrogant? Haha, everything you say is right so far."
"The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. I don't even have the confidence to refute this."
Liu Zhang smiled and shook his head.
"Look, you said you're not arrogant."
Zhou Yu was very angry and blood gushed out again.
"Liu Zhang, although you won, I don't accept it!"
"If our identities were exchanged, what would you do? Hold the city and defend it? Sit back and wait for death?"
"Is it possible that there is a better result than this?"
"Captain Zhou."
At this time, Pang Tong came closer.
"First of all, there are no ifs in the world. Identity swap, such a simple sentence, how difficult is it to do?"
"I would like to ask, can you, Zhou Yu, rise up during the Yellow Turban Rebellion and defeat more than 100,000 enemy troops with a thousand remaining soldiers in the first battle?"
Zhou Yu was speechless and couldn't help but lower his head.
He could deny all of Liu Zhang's achievements, but he could not refute Liu Zhang's achievements when he was just starting out.
So dazzling!
At the age of fifteen, a thousand weak troops defeated and beheaded Bocai, who was besieging the famous Han generals Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun.
It is no exaggeration to say that he is an astonishing talent.
No matter how arrogant Zhou Yu is, he never dares to say that he can do what Liu Zhang does.
Not to mention all the subsequent exaggerated achievements that are unbelievable.
"This Governor is only talking about this battle in Huainan and will not discuss anything else!"
"Didn't Liu Zhang say that this governor is arrogant? Then I would like to ask him, what would he do if he were this governor?"
Seeing Zhou Yu's stubborn mouth, Pang Tong couldn't help but laugh.
"What should I do? Your little tricks have been exposed by the King of Qin, and you still dare to talk nonsense here?"
"If you knew that you should have surrendered to the King of Qin long ago, why would you do useless work and struggle to the death?"
Zhou Yu sneered, disdainful of Pang Tong's remarks.
"Strong words! Aren't you just relying on yourself to be the victor?"
"If I succeed in the sneak attack, I can point my finger in your nose and say you are arrogant!"
"In the end, the winner is the king or the loser!"
Pang Tong pointed at Zhou Yu, full of disappointment.
"Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu!"
"Even now, you are still so stubborn. I might as well tell you. In fact, as long as you defend the city, not even the King of Qin can do anything to you."
"What!"
Zhou Yu exclaimed and looked at Liu Zhang in disbelief for confirmation.
"How can this be?"
"How is it impossible?"
Liu Zhang also spoke to confirm Pang Tong's remarks.
"You swear not to leave the city and rely on the city to fight back. Can you still make the soldiers fly into the sky and escape?"
Zhou Yu seemed to have heard a joke and couldn't accept it at all.
"Didn't you say you wanted to cut off the Huaihe River and empty the moat? Didn't you show off the fire prevention capabilities of your siege vehicles?"
"When the time comes, you have emptied the moat, filled it up, and set fireproof siege engines on the city wall. How can I resist?"
"I admit that your elite Qin army and Huainan army are no match, so I must not sit still and wait for death!"
"madness!"
Liu Zhang roared loudly, which made Zhou Yu's head buzz.
"I'm asking you, who told you this?"
"Of course it's you! Hiss..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Yu couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
For a moment, he seemed to feel that something was not right.
Liu Zhang said nothing and allowed Zhou Yu to think by himself.
As a result, the more Zhou Yu thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and his mouth grew bigger and bigger.
After all, it seems that Liu Zhang told him all this.
After a long time, Liu Zhang asked with a chuckle.
"What, have you figured it out?"
Zhou Yu's eyes flickered, still in disbelief.
"you..."
"Zhou Yu, when you completely trust your opponent to provide information, you have completely failed."
Liu Zhang did not give Zhou Yu a chance to speak, and gave his conclusion unceremoniously.
"Whether it's cutting off the Huaihe River, filling in the moat, or preventing siege vehicles from being fired, have you personally verified it?"
Zhou Yu's eyes were wide open and his mouth was open but he couldn't say a word.
Indeed, he had not verified any of it, but he believed it unswervingly like a man possessed.
To this day, he still can't figure out why.
Moreover, looking back now, when we left the city tonight, the water in the moat was still very turbulent.
Where is the slightest bit of dryness?
"Didn't you personally perform the fire protection of the siege vehicle in front of this governor?"
Zhou Yu was unwilling to give in and could only use the last fig leaf in his heart to seek confirmation from Liu Zhang.
Unfortunately, he didn't know that this was Liu Zhang's weapon to destroy him!
"Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu, you said it was a performance, do you still need Guduo to explain?"
"Gu just gave you a complete set of hints. In fact, everything is just your own conjecture!"
"Or to put it more bluntly, you are smart but you are mistaken for being smart!"
"Don't even think about it, how could such a big siege vehicle not be afraid of flames?"
In fact, siege engines cannot prevent fire at all, let alone the ability to prevent fire.
The fire prevention performance performed before was performed by Liu Zhang after wrapping it in soaked cowhide in advance and showing it to Zhou Yu.
There is moisture on the cowhide, so if you pour fire oil on it, it will not burn violently.
The main focus is a visual difference!
The distance above and below the city is too far to see clearly.
This made Zhou Yu mistakenly believe that the entire siege vehicle was fireproof.
First, cut off the water supply, then fill in the river, and finally prevent fire.
This whole set of extremely river-like processes completely confused Zhou Yu.
Being extremely smart, he subconsciously believed that Liu Zhang could do everything, and even more firmly believed that holding on to the city would only lead to death!
In fact, everything was Liu Zhang's plan.
Liu Zhang took advantage of Zhou Yu's arrogance and his wisdom!
From the beginning to the end, Zhou Yu was toyed with by Liu Zhang!
Only now did Zhou Yu finally wake up, but it was too late.
Tens of thousands of troops were destroyed, and the only general Lu Meng was killed.
Zhou Yu has become a lonely man who is dying!
Thinking of this, Zhou Yu finally couldn't stand the excitement.
A mouthful of blood spurted out.
puff!
