Three Kingdoms: Bandit Cao, let go of that woman!

Chapter 219 Provoking Zhou Yu
Seeing Cao Peng walk into the cabin, everyone immediately looked at her.

"Cao Peng, the prime minister is here now. Are you trying to murder the prime minister by sailing the boat to the east of the river?" Cao Hong yelled.

Cao Cao frowned immediately, "Shut up!"

He simply wanted to kick Cao Hong twice. If Cao Peng really had evil intentions, it would be more dangerous for him to say that.

After Cao Hong closed his mouth, Cao Cao looked at Cao Peng and said, "Anmin, why are we here now?"

Cao Peng laughed and said, "Of course it's for the 10 arrows! How come uncle forgot about this?"

Cao Cao's face darkened, "Then I told you to retreat immediately, why did you ignore it?"

Cao Peng still smiled lightly, "Because I know that uncle must have misunderstood me. I want to prove to you that I can not only get 10 arrows, but also kill Zhou Yu's spirit!"

Just as Cao Cao was still thinking about what Cao Peng wanted to do, there was a burst of shouting outside.

"General Qi, we are only a stone's throw away from Sanjiangkou."

After hearing the soldier's report, everyone turned pale with fright. If the opponent came from such a close distance, wouldn't they be finished?
"Where is Gan Ning, ask him to come see me!" Cao Peng said.

After a while, Gan Ning entered the cabin and said to Cao Peng, "General, everything is ready, and all the scarecrows are fixed."

Cao Peng smiled lightly, "Very well, move forward slowly, and then beat the drums as I planned before!"

Cao Cao's forehead was sweating when he heard this.

Originally covered by thick fog, the enemy might not be discovered, but Cao Peng actually asked the crowd to beat the drums. Isn't this a deliberate provocation?

Cao Cao even had some doubts at this time, whether Cao Peng didn't want to live anymore and wanted to drag him into the water.

"Anmin, you..." Cao Cao hesitated to speak.

At this time, Cao Peng said: "Uncle, please be safe and don't be impatient, am I not here to accompany you? Don't worry, I have my own measure."

Cao Cao had no choice but to sit down again, and he had to be bold enough to see what kind of show Cao Peng was going to pull off.

……

In Zhou Yu's barracks in the distance.

Zhou Yu also received a report from the frontline sentry, saying that countless warships flying the flag of Cao Jun suddenly appeared on the river.

Zhou Yu immediately boarded the tower, checked and saw countless warships waving in surprise in the looming thick fog.

"Good guy, isn't this Cao Cao deceiving me in Jiangdong!"

"You underestimate me too much!" Zhou Yu said angrily.

But although Zhou Yu was angry, he was not reckless.

He knew that a military meeting had to be held to discuss such a big matter, so the generals came to his camp.

The same person who came here was Sun Quan.

Sun Quan came to the front line a few days ago to inspect Zhou Yu's military training. He didn't want to be a master sitting at home.

In order to break free from Zhou Yu's shackles as soon as possible, he must know some military skills.

However, I didn't expect that Cao Jun would lead an army to attack at this juncture.

Sun Quan naturally didn't want to miss this good show, so he wanted to see how Zhou Yu would respond.

Zhou Yu immediately let everyone enter the camp to discuss matters.

Because Sun Quan was there, Sun Quan took the main seat, and Zhou Yu was next.

Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Gan Ning and other veteran generals stood on one side, while Lu Mengling and Zhou Tai's young generals were on the other side.

Everyone began to express their opinions about Cao Jun's sudden attack.

"Our careful work in Jingzhou City did inquire and found out that Cao Jun's navy had just finished training, but we didn't expect them to dare to take the initiative to attack."

"What are you afraid of? If they dare to come, we dare to fight. Let them know who owns the land of the Yangtze River?"

Those who advocated rushing out immediately were all Jiangdong's new generals, including Zhou Yu, who actually wanted to rush out.

But the old-school generals were a bit calm and prudent, such as Huang Gai said: "We also fought against that Cao thief before, he is not a reckless man!"

"The fog outside is too thick now, we might as well hold back for now."

The young generals were not impressed by such words, because they were eager to make contributions.

At this moment, the soldiers rushed to report to Cao Jun outside, and suddenly the drums were loud.

Lu Meng slapped the table angrily, "Listen, Commander, everyone has already bullied me. It seems that they are really bullying me. There is no one in Jiangdong. I can't swallow this breath. I will lead an army to fight against Cao Cao." .”

Zhou Yu frowned, and said sharply: "Okay, then I will send you three thousand sailors to attack!"

At this moment, Lu Su, who came with Sun Quan, stopped him and said, "Governor, please think twice before acting."

"Haven't you ever wondered why Cao Cao dared to send generals here at this time? She is the most cautious person. If there is no absolute chance of winning, it is not his strength to grasp this kind of open and close tactics!"

Hearing this, Sun Quan nodded approvingly. He had suffered a lot at the hands of this thief Cao, so he was very afraid now.

"That's right, Gongjin, you have to be careful!"

Sun Quan had already spoken, Zhou Yu naturally needed to weigh it again.

If he insisted on going his own way and led his troops to go deep, but failed in the end, it would be a bit of a crime.

"What the lord said is very true. He was the last general just now, so he was a little impatient."

Lu Su on the side said again, "Gongjin, the last defeat has taught us enough lessons. This time we must not underestimate the enemy."

Zhou Yu nodded, not intending to continue to be stubborn, "What Zijing said does have some truth, but what's the reason why we don't attack when they hit the door of the house."

Lu Su said: "Maybe, we can release arrows from the water village to test the reality in the fog."

After hearing this suggestion, Zhou Yu felt that it was very reasonable, so he nodded in agreement.

After all, the outside is shrouded in mist, and it is easy to fall into an ambush if you attack rashly. This is indeed a factor that should be considered.

"Okay, then pass on the order to all the crossbowmen, bow their bows and set arrows, and shoot him!"

"No!" Lu Meng had no choice but to accept the order and leave.

Lu Meng was dressed in armor and went to the water village with a scimitar.

He is Zhou Yu's confidant and is quite famous in the army.

A group of soldiers and generals bowed their heads when they saw him go to the water village.

"General!"

Lu Meng nodded, then pulled out the knife on his waist, and pointed forward.

"See if there is any warship in front, let all the crossbowmen come up and shoot me!"

"Here!"

The soldiers on the water stronghold quickly agreed.

Countless crossbowmen immediately went to the water stronghold and aimed at Cao Jun's warship.

"Fire arrows!"

Accompanied by Lu Meng, he gave an order.

Countless arrows shot out, covering the sky and covering the earth.
