Chapter 574: The sky lantern is extremely beautiful, and so are you
Huang Gai may not have known until his death that Yi Xiaotian had actually predicted the rockets they had fired before.
Yi Xiaotian even took all protective measures for this, so that after hundreds of thousands of rockets were fired into Xiangyang City, post-war statistics showed that only a few soldiers in the city were slightly injured to a certain extent.
Although they were all ordered by Yi Xiaotian, the person who played a crucial role in predicting the plan of the Sun-Liu coalition was of course the man who was first recommended and has now completely become the shadow of Cao Wei - Li Fu.
Yes, Ma Liang may have only found out yesterday that he was being stared at by such a group of terrifying men in black, but in fact, Yi Xiaotian had already arranged this matter since Cao Cao returned to the city with Li Fu.
Go down.
Therefore, for such a long time, whether it was Ma Liang's retaliatory betrayal plan or Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu's high hopes of internal and external cooperation, they were all under the surveillance of the special operations force led by Li Fu.
Therefore, although Huang Gai expected that when he harassed Xiangyang, he would use Soochow's unique city-climbing troops - bamboo bundles, and he took the right medicine, with Huang Yueying's assistance, he asked the craftsman's workshop to make flying bamboo shears, but for the enemy's fire attack
In response to this aspect, Yi Xiaotian realized it and then responded with great care.
Of course, Yi Xiaotian's response was also very simple.
Since yesterday, Yi Xiaotian has been distributing masks door-to-door in the city with many people - yes, because in order to make refined salt, Yi Xiaotian prepared a lot of bamboo charcoal. Now when women in the city urgently start sewing masks
, all came in handy.
Brand-new masks sewn from pieces of cloth, dried flowers and leaves, and bamboo charcoal have become something everyone has.
When everyone was puzzled by Yi Xiaotian's confusing behavior, Yi Xiaotian then did something that made everyone even more confused.
Let every household pour "night fragrance" on their roofs one after another - as for what night fragrance is, it is actually feces and urine...
Now everyone finally understood why Yi Xiaotian specially distributed masks that even smelled fresh when worn.
Originally many people were resistant to this, but Yi Xiaotian used extremely tough methods to force all the rooftops in the city to be sprinkled with "night fragrance".
But soon... on the night when the war started, the grievances of the people in the city turned into gratitude towards Yi Xiaotian after the dense rockets fell.
Why?
When the rocket was fired into the city, it should have caused a series of fires, but because it was sprinkled with "night fragrance" in advance, the rocket was quickly extinguished after being dipped in fresh "night fragrance".
Not only did the people in the city survive, Cao Cao also picked up hundreds of thousands of feather arrows in vain. Of course... the process of picking up the arrows was not so pleasant. After all, Yi Xiaotian only distributed masks to the people.
It was not distributed to Cao Cao and others.
This seemed to be one of the few things that made Cao Cao deeply resentful of Yi Xiaotian.
But... overall, Yi Xiaotian's prevention was very successful.
That night, after Yi Xiaotian watched the rockets pouring down with great satisfaction, he immediately did the last thing he had to do in this battle.
——
Yi Xiaotian stood in the middle of the road, followed by many craftsmen from crafts workshops. He first thanked the craftsmen behind him, but it was obvious that everyone was very grateful for everything Yi Xiaotian had done for Xiangyang, so
After Yi Xiaotian bowed his head, everyone stepped forward to stop Yi Xiaotian with great excitement:
"Mr. Yi! You can't do it, you can't do it!"
"Yes, Mr. Yi, you saved the people in our city, and it is only right that we accompany you to do these things!"
"That's right, Master Yi, if you are still so polite in the future, don't blame me for getting angry with you!"
Yi Xiaotian smiled helplessly, grateful from the bottom of his heart to these lovely people in front of him, and said to them:
"Yi will definitely keep your kindness in mind..."
Seeing that Yi Xiaotian seemed to have returned to his usual expression, everyone looked at each other and smiled, and many rough guys also showed embarrassed expressions. As Yi Xiaotian said, common people are often the most simple and lovely.
Huang Yueying on the side covered her mouth and smiled softly, watching quietly as Yi Xiaotian exuded a unique light.
Yi Xiaotian seemed to notice this look, turned his head to look, and then smiled lightly at Huang Yueying.
However, Yi Xiaotian did not forget his most important task.
So after sending everyone away, he gently blew the same flute as Yu Jin and others outside the city.
squeak--
A melodious voice echoed in the empty street.
Soon, figures hidden in the night quickly appeared in front of Yi Xiaotian.
"Commander Li...it's time...remember to tell Mr. Hao and the others to wait until the enemy is close enough before launching an offensive——"
"Don't worry, Mr. Yi, Li Fu is going too..."
After Li Fu's potential was discovered, the resolute and concise sense of his character seemed to be liberated.
Talk less and do more. For such people, Yi Xiaotian can't help but love them.
Watching Li Fu lead his men to leave, Yi Xiaotian slowly turned his head, clasped his hands behind his back, and looked at the sky lantern slowly floating in the southeast sky:
"Yueying, you have worked hard during this time..."
Huang Yueying stuck out her tongue playfully and approached Yi Xiaotian from behind, but she didn't expect that Yi Xiaotian had already discovered her.
Huang Yueying, who was a little embarrassed, stood quietly side by side with Yi Xiaotian. She was not tall, reaching up to Yi Xiaotian's shoulder. She turned to look at Yi Xiaotian when she heard Yi Xiaotian say this.
Astonished, a flush rose to her cheeks, her tiny toes tapped the ground, and she replied in a light voice:
"Where... Yueying just did this in response to Mr.'s idea... Even... Even if it were someone else, it would be the same..."
"No... Yueying, without you, I can't make anything, whether it's a sky lantern or a crossbow..."
Huang Yueying was a little shy, but when she looked up, she saw Yi Xiaotian's clear and serious eyes under the moonlight.
"It's really beautiful..."
"Ah...Sir...you, you, you, you, you...what are you talking about..."
Huang Yueying felt that her face was extremely hot, and her brain suddenly shut down. She couldn't speak a word clearly, and the sound like a chicken pecking at rice made Yi Xiaotian in front of her laugh.
"I'm talking about that lantern."
"Ah...so that's it..."
Huang Yueying finally forced herself to calm down and patted her chest, not even daring to recall the blushing conversation just now.
"Sure enough..."
Huang Yueying seemed to agree with Yi Xiaotian.
Yi Xiaotian smiled and looked at the sky, but little did he know that Huang Yueying was looking at him.
——
Maybe Zhou Yu would never have thought that there were four people looking at the beautiful sky lanterns under the night sky at this moment.
He would not have known that the strange sky lantern in his eyes happened to witness a tragic defeat in which his general Huang Gai paid his life when it floated over Fanshui.
"what is that?"
Zhou Yu asked, and Zhuge Liang didn't seem to notice the sky lantern in the distance, because his eyes were fixed on the south gate of Xiangyang...
