Chapter 330 Zhuge Liang wants to borrow the east wind.
Fankou, Wu army water camp, central army tent.
Zhou Yu sent someone to invite Zhuge Liang to discuss military affairs. Now Zhou Yu's heart is already confused and he can no longer come up with any good ideas. Therefore, it is necessary to discuss everything with Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang's health was not yet very good. Lu Su supported Zhuge Liang to come, and after Lu Su and Zhuge Liang sat down.
Zhou Yu spoke to Zhuge Liang and asked, "Mr. Kong Ming, do we have to secretly report the death of King Wu?"
The battle was not started when King Sun Jian of Wu died, and the king of his family died first. As a result, the morale of the Wu army would inevitably be depressed. Since this is the case, we should not let these soldiers know about these things.
Moreover, if an important person died in this marching and war, it would actually be basically kept secret.
When Zhuge Liang heard Zhou Yu's words, he thought to himself, Gongjin, you are so sad that you are a little confused.
In military law, there is a saying that the general's death is secret but not released. However, this is true that it is hidden from the soldiers at the bottom, but more of it is to hide from the enemy.
Now, the Qin army on the opposite side has already learned the news of the King of Wu’s funeral in the sky first. It would be meaningless if this secret is not posted.
Zhuge Liang looked at Zhou Yu and said to him: "Gongjin, now that the Qin army has already known this news, then the hidden secret will be harmed. If the news is leaked in the middle of the war, the morale will suddenly be depressed, the consequences will be unimaginable."
"As the saying goes, the soldiers will win. It is better to hang white flags and sails in the camp and let the soldiers wear white clothes and white armor. In this way, the soldiers will hold their breath in their hearts, which will boost the morale of the army."
As soon as Zhuge Liang said this, Zhou Yu suddenly felt that it made sense. They now have internal supporters in the army. If they hide the news and are exploited by this internal supporter, they may have something to do.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yu couldn't help but feel that Mr. Kong Ming was extremely superior to me.
“Not bad, not bad.”
"Mr. Kong Ming's words are reasonable." Zhou Yu replied.
After Zhou Yu responded, he quickly ordered Lu Su: "Zijing, you can prepare white cloth and white paint within three days."
The white cloth that Zhou Yu wanted was to change the flags in the camp to white, and to hang white sails in the camp. As for the white paint, it was used to dye the armor white.
"Don't worry, the Grand Governor, you will definitely be prepared within three days." Lu Su said to Zhou Yu.
At this time, Zhuge Liang spoke again, and he asked Zhou Yu: "Grandmaster, as the saying goes, the soldiers will win. The soldiers are holding their breath. At that time, the soldiers will die and will not be greedy for life. Our morale will definitely be greatly boosted, but we have to fight quickly, otherwise if the delay is long, and once this aura is released, we will be in vain."
"I don't know, the Grand Commander has another good strategy to defeat the enemy?"
Zhuge Liang asked Zhou Yu about the good strategy of defeating the enemy? Zhou Yu calmed down and said to Zhuge Liang: "I have a plan for this plan, but I still don't know if it is a good strategy."
"With Mr. Kong Ming here, I won't be ugly anymore. Please come up with a plan."
Zhou Yu was very confused first. Although he had the idea of breaking the enemy, he had no confidence in himself. Zhou Yu simply didn't want to say it, and he wanted Zhuge Liang to come up with a plan.
Looking at Zhou Yu's entangled appearance, Zhuge Liang was a little happy when he saw the famous Zhou Gongjin's appearance.
"Hey, Governor, where is this?"
"From my perspective, we both write our attention in our palms. How about we show it together?" Zhuge Liang said to Zhou Yu.
You really don’t know that Zhuge Liang is also very good at adjusting the atmosphere. Zhou Yu is so confused. Zhuge Liang thought of this method, but Zhou Yu relaxed a lot. He thought Zhuge Liang’s method was quite interesting.
"Okay then." Zhou Yu replied.
Zhuge Liang told Zhou Yu that they each wrote their own strategies in their palms. So they picked up their pens and wrote down their own strategies in their palms. After they finished writing, they put down their pens.
After each wrote the words in his palms, they lit up their palms almost at the same time. When they saw the words in their palms, they couldn't help but smile at each other.
When Lu Su stood beside him, he first looked at the words in Zhou Yu's palm. Zhou Yu wrote the word "fire". Then he looked at the words in Zhuge Liang's palm. Zhuge Liang also wrote the word "fire".
"Grandmaster, Mr. Kong Ming, you really are heroes who have similar views." Lu Su said from the side.
"Mr. Kong Ming, if you want to defeat the Qin army, you need to use fire to attack. However, there is still a key thing missing." Zhou Yu said to Zhuge Liang.
"Grandmaster, what else do you lack?" Lu Su asked.
Before Zhou Yu could answer, Zhuge Liang smiled slightly, shook his feather fan and said, "Dongfeng."
When Zhuge Liang said that the east wind was still lacking. Lu Su immediately understood that in this season, the northwest wind was blowing on the river. You just used a fast ship, filled with sulfur and tung oil and other things that caused fire. If there was no wind to help the fire, the fire would be able to hurt the Qin army's ships.
Nowadays, if the fire can threaten the Qin army, it must be necessary to have a east wind, and the east wind is not enough if it is small. If it is said according to modern standards, it must be at least a five- or six-level east wind.
When he heard Zhou Yu say he wanted the east wind, Lu Su thought to himself that it was a celestial phenomenon when it was windy and rainy. This is God's business. We, the Grand Commander, do not have the ability to discuss with God. This east wind is not something we can ask whenever we want.
However, at this moment, Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan and said, "Grandmaster, let me leave the east wind to Zhuge Liang. From now on, count until the seventh day, on this seventh night, I will borrow the east wind for the Grandmaster for a night."
As soon as Zhuge Liang said this, Zhou Yu and Lu Su were both stunned. The two of them thought to themselves, "What a good guy, Mr. Kong Ming is really amazing. Could it be that he can still discuss it with God?"
"Mr. Kongming, are you joking?" To be honest, Lu Su didn't believe what Zhuge Liang said.
The main reason is that the wind, rain, thunder are all changes in the celestial phenomena. Lu Su has heard of it, but this is the first time he has heard of it. The key is that this thing borrows God's east wind, what are you going to pay it back?
"Oh, don't worry, Zijing, I said that if you can borrow the east wind on the seventh night, the east wind will definitely come."
"I also ask the Grand Commander to build a seven-star platform by the river, and then prepare three animals, six animals, incense, candles, paper money, and ninety-eighty-one boys." Zhuge Liang said to Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu and Lu Su listened to the things Zhuge Liang wanted and thought to themselves that Mr. Kong Ming was really a strange person, and he would also seek rain with his feelings.
