Wandering the Heavens

Chapter 391 New 3 Kingdoms 31

Damn! We want Xiao Qiao and Da Qiao too!

A group of lsps sobered up instantly after hearing Cao Cao's words and found a common topic. The topic quickly turned to the 18+ category. The brakes were removed, the accelerator was pressed to the bottom, and the car doors were welded shut so that no one could escape.

Guo Jia was the most excited among the crowd. He was originally sick and listless, but now he was flying around like a butterfly with a wine glass in his hand, and he looked much more energetic.

Yu Xian, who pretended to be an NPC and mingled in to get free food and drink, lamented that war was not a good thing. Just look at what a group of men had become of it.

When everyone was chatting with great interest, there were suddenly a few crows calling, and this abrupt noise cooled down the lively conversation.

"Why is this crow cawing so late at night?" Cao Cao was also very unhappy.

An NPC quickly stepped forward to report: "My lord, the moon must be too bright, and the crows thought it was daybreak, so they cried."

"Hahahaha, it's indeed an unintelligent bird that can't even tell the difference between the moon and the sun. I'm dying of laughter, hahahaha!"

Cao Cao laughed and drank the wine jug in his hand, then threw it away casually, walked to the side of the boat in three or two steps, untied his belt in public, and took a dip into the river.

After solving his physiological problem, he looked up and saw his long spear. The breeze blew, and Cao Cao, who was originally slightly tipsy, became drunk all of a sudden. He didn't know where the energy came from, and he came to the crowd with the long spear. In this situation, he wanted to recite a poem!

"Let's drink and sing! What is life?"

"Like the morning dew! The past days are filled with suffering!"

……

Yu Xian was still thinking about praising him, but as soon as he opened his mouth, his true colors were exposed. I’m tired, so let him do whatever he wants!

Cao Cao finished reciting the Short Song while dancing with a long spear, and everyone cheered. At this moment, he held the spear in one hand and put his other hand on his waist, looking towards the south of the Yangtze River, thinking that the land would soon be his.

However, there are always things that spoil the fun in the world, like now.

"On the eve of a major battle, when the soldiers are fighting to the death, why would you say such an unlucky thing, my lord?"

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and looked at Liu Fu who was speaking.

"What's unlucky about what I said?"

Liu Fu's emotional intelligence was probably drowned by the alcohol, so he just answered honestly.

"The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, the magpies fly south, they circle the tree three times, but there is no branch to rest on. This is an unlucky statement."

"How dare you, a grandson, spoil my Cao Cao's fun!"

As Cao Cao spoke, he stepped forward and stabbed Liu Fu to death with a spear. After drinking so much that someone died, everyone sobered up and quickly dispersed to go back to sleep.

When Cao Cao sobered up at dawn, he realized that he had accidentally killed someone. He pretended to comfort Liu Fu's son Liu Xi and sent someone to send his coffin back for burial in violation of the rules.

On the third day after the drinking party, Mao Jie and Yu Jin said that the matter of the iron-chain boats had been completed, and the 500,000 troops had already boarded the ships. They asked Cao Cao to go and inspect them, and then choose a day to march and start the battle.

Cao Cao was so happy when he saw the fluttering military flags and the huge crowds of people that he praised Pang Tong for his intelligence on the spot.

Cheng Yu said that the iron chain boat was stable, but the entire army could not go anywhere with it. What if the enemy used fire attack, wouldn't everyone be doomed?

Cao Cao said, "I've thought about this problem, but it's not a problem. We are the red side, and the wind can't blow here in winter."

When everyone heard this, they all flattered their lord and praised his wisdom.

"Our soldiers are all landlubbers. If we don't do this, how can the army cross the natural barrier of the river?" Cao Cao sighed, looking to the south with his hands behind his back.

The noise made by Cao's army was quite loud and alarmed the coalition forces. Zhou Yu, with a group of generals and advisers, climbed up to the corner tower and watched the scene with solemn expressions.

Just when he was about to say something to ease the awkward situation, a breeze blew a military flag across Zhou Yu's face. He looked at the Cao army's warships and then turned back to look at the allied forces' water stronghold. Suddenly, he covered his chest, vomited blood and fell to the ground.

The war was about to start, and the commander Zhou Yu was vomiting blood every other day. It would be hard for anyone to have such a boss. He looked for doctors everywhere and reported to Sun Ce (except for a very few people on the coalition side who didn't know that he was dead), asking him to find a way to dig three feet deep in the ground in Jiangdong to find a way to cure the man.

When Sun Quan received this report, he was extremely happy, but he pretended to be extremely anxious and sent people everywhere to look for doctors and herbs.

Zhuge Liang had been idle for a long time, so he found Lu Su and said that he could cure Zhou Yu's illness.

Lu Su said, "Don't lie to me because I'm not well-educated. Last time, you were so confident. You sailed right up against Cao's army and almost got captured. If it weren't for Sun Quan's protection, you wouldn't have been able to save your life after you came back."

Zhuge Liang's face turned red. That was all in the past. Why bring up unhappy things? Anyway, I know why Governor Zhou is sick. If you take me to see the custodian, he will be full of energy immediately.

Lu Su could only take Zhuge Liang to see Zhou Yu with the mentality of giving it a try. After pretending to take Zhou Yu's pulse, Lu Su handed him a note.

When Zhou Yu opened the note, he suddenly got up from his half-dead state and laughed, saying that the person who understood him was Zhuge Liang, which stunned Lu Su.

"Since you know why I'm sick, what medicine can you use to treat me? The situation is urgent, I hope you won't shirk your responsibility!"

"I am a humble person, but I once met a strange man who taught me the Book of Qimen Dunjia, which can call the wind and rain. If the governor wants a southeast wind, you can build a Seven Star Altar on Nanping Mountain, nine feet high and divided into three layers. Arrange one hundred and twenty people holding flags and banners to surround it, and I will perform a ritual on the altar. How about borrowing the southeast wind for three days and three nights to help the governor fight?" Zhuge Liang said mysteriously, shaking his feather fan.

Zhou Yu was too lazy to pretend and said directly, "If you can borrow the wind, lend it to me. Don't pretend to brag here."

"Don't even mention three days and three nights. I can beat the shit out of Cao Cao in just one night. But the matter is urgent and cannot be delayed."

"Then how about we offer sacrifices to the wind at Jiazi hour on November 20th, and wait until Bingyin hour on the 22nd when the wind stops?" Zhuge Liang asked confidently.

"Okay! Someone come here!" Zhou Yu clasped his hands together and shouted outside the tent.

The personal soldiers immediately entered the tent and waited for orders. Zhou Yu immediately ordered 500 people to go to Nanping Mountain to build an altar, and selected 120 people to follow Zhuge Liang and listen to his arrangements.

Zhuge Liang did not waste time and took his men to Nanping Mountain to select a site and start construction. He also took 120 men to the logistics area to prepare materials. He then trained these men on what pattern of flags to hold and where to stand and which direction to face.

After finishing the work, it was time to offer sacrifices to the wind. Zhuge Liang came to the Seven Star Altar barefoot, wearing a Taoist robe. It was a really damn cold day.

After Zhuge Liang sent Lu Su away, he reiterated the disciplines and then reluctantly climbed up the Seven Star Altar to start offering sacrifices to the wind.

Zhuge Liang danced barefoot on the altar three times for a whole day. Zhou Yu also stood on the stage to select generals, and below him were the generals from various routes, as well as Lu Su and Kan Ze.

The days are short in winter, and it is cloudy now, so the sky dims early and even distant places are blurry.

Standing in the cold wind for a whole day in the middle of winter was not a pleasant experience for anyone. Just when everyone was getting impatient, the military flag next to Zhou Yu was blown by the wind to the southeast and then to the northwest.

"Ding Feng Xu Sheng!" Zhou Yu shouted.

"Here." The two men stood up and bowed, waiting for orders.

"You two will each lead a hundred soldiers. Ding Feng will take the land route, and Xu Sheng will take the water route. You will meet in front of the Seven Star Altar. Don't talk too much. When you see Zhuge Liang, kill him and bring his head back to claim the credit!" Zhou Yu said as he threw out a command arrow.
