"I know, go and inform Huang Zu and Guo Jia and wait at the river bank."
Jiang Siming stood up and put on his clothes while teasingly murmuring to himself: "You still want to use a trick on me to set Chibi on fire? You really have an idea."
After stepping out of the handsome boat, Jiang Siming came to the river bank. At this time, a middle-aged man knelt on the ground, his body covered with scars, which was shocking.
They were all whipped and beaten with pokers, and the skin was torn and there was no good piece of flesh.
They all saw this man yesterday. Isn't he the same Huang Gai who was beaten by Zhou Yu?
"Isn't this General Huang? Why is it like this?" Jiang Siming asked with concern.
"Prince Ming, save me!" Huang Gai cried bitterly.
"What happened?" Jiang Siming kindly helped Huang Gai up.
Huang Gai then began to cry, saying that Zhou Yu had monopolized power and ignored Sun Quan and other princes.
He was also forced to lead an army to attack Jiang Siming's navy. He felt that the risk was too great, so he disagreed and had a quarrel with Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu slapped him angrily and threw him into the dungeon.
Fortunately, the soldiers guarding the dungeon were his, and Huang Gai was able to escape and join Jiang Siming.
After listening to Huang Gai's narration, everyone else fell into thinking.
Judging from Huang Gai's description and facial expressions, it seems that he is not fake.
In addition, Zhou Yu's character itself is very arrogant and conceited, so there seems to be no problem with him being able to do such a thing.
"Great, if Huang Gai defectes to the lord, then Jiangdong will have no chance of winning." Guan Yu said excitedly, and the other generals also looked happy.
If the opponent's general surrenders before they start fighting, then they still have a chance of losing.
Pang Tong, who was standing closest to Guan Yu, narrowed his eyes, smiled playfully, and said, "I don't think so."
"Oh? What does Military Advisor Pang mean?" Zhao Yun looked at him doubtfully.
At this time, Guo Jia turned his head and made a hissing gesture. Hearing this, Pang Tong immediately closed his mouth and stopped saying anything.
After listening to Huang Gai's narration, Jiang Siming showed an expression of ecstasy on his face.
"So, General Huang?"
"If King Ming doesn't dislike it, I will be willing to join King Ming and do the work of a dog and a horse!"
"Haha, okay, with General Huang's help, I can achieve great things! When someone comes, send military doctors to General Huang to treat his injuries immediately." Jiang Siming shouted.
At this time, Huang Gai said: "Don't be anxious, King Ming. I have tens of thousands of brothers willing to follow you, but they are still controlled by Zhou Yu in Jiangdong."
"What do you mean?" Jiang Siming pretended to be confused.
Huang Gai said 'sincerely': "If King Ming can trust me, I am willing to return to Jiangdong temporarily. Tomorrow night, I will gather all my brothers and come here specifically to join him."
"Haha, good! That's great! Then I'll be wronging General Huang."
"I am loyal to King Ming, and I dare not express my sorrow." Huang Gai kowtowed to Jiang Siming respectfully, then resolutely got back on the boat and returned to Jiangdong.
As soon as Huang Gai left, Guo Jia and Pang Tong were about to tell their lord whether it was credible or not that Huang Gai had a ghost.
Who would have thought that Jiang Siming looked at Jiang Mian and said without knowing it: "Send the order, all soldiers will be on alert tomorrow evening, prepare enough arrows and kerosene, so that Huang Gai will never come back!"
After hearing this, Guo Jia and Pang Tong looked at each other, feeling both happy and worried.
The happy thing is that the master's wisdom is actually far beyond their imagination, and what they met is definitely a wise master.
But the worry is that they are afraid that the lord is too smart, and their military advisors seem to have no use...
If there is no need for them in the future, then fire them (face covering).
Fortunately, Jiang Siming is notoriously lazy, and he will definitely leave it to his subordinates as soon as something happens, so he probably won't fire them.
Sima Yi stood in the corner, looking at Jiang Siming's back, feeling deep fear in his heart.
Such a shrewd lord makes him unable to have any bad thoughts.
Although the other subordinates didn't know why they gave such an order, they always carried it out unconditionally.
····
The next night, near Jiang Siming's river bank, the entire army was on alert, and all soldiers were on guard in every ship in high spirits.
The wind blew up at night, and many fires suddenly appeared on the river. This was exactly what Huang Gai and Jiang Siming had agreed to yesterday, and the fires were the signal.
Jiang Siming stood on the tallest ship and looked at the approaching ships, which were full of dark shadows.
Among them, Huang Gai was on the boat in the middle, waving to Jiang Siming.
When they got closer, Huang Gai shouted: "King Ming, I have brought my brothers here to surrender!"
Jiang Siming also waved to him, but raised his right hand expressionlessly.
Huang Gai still didn't understand.
"Let go!" Jiang Siming then waved his right hand and shouted.
Huang Gai was very puzzled. What should he let go? Let them come over?
But the next moment, Huang Gai realized something was wrong.
I saw countless black slender objects shooting over from the opposite side in mid-air.
"No! There's an ambush!" Huang Gai was shocked, not expecting that Jiang Siming would suddenly attack.
Sui! Sui! Sui!
It’s arrows! Rain of arrows! Rain of arrows fills the sky!
Then I heard the screams of countless brothers and the sound of falling water, one after another.
"King Ming, what do you mean by this? We are here to surrender sincerely." Huang Gai asked Jiang Siming innocently while raising his shield to block the arrows.
Jiang Siming smiled and said: "Are we still going to play? Okay, let's play it again!"
This time, the sky was full of arrows again, but the difference from before was that they were just ordinary arrows.
But this time, it’s the Rockets!
Arrows burning with kerosene were fired at the hundreds of ships.
The arrow fell into an object covered with straw on the boat, and then a fire burst into the sky!
Everything covered under this fodder is barrels of kerosene!
Huang Gai then believed that their plan had been discovered by Jiang Siming a long time ago and they had deliberately lured him into the trap.
"Jump into the river! Jump into the river to retreat!" Huang Gai could only quickly call his men to jump into the sea to escape.
But seeing all the ships bursting into flames, with countless casualties and casualties, Huang Gai's eyes turned red and he glared at Jiang Siming.
"Jiangbei thief! Don't be so arrogant! Even if I can't kill you this time, you can't just walk around with it!"
After Huang Gai finished speaking, he immediately ordered all the soldiers on the ship to pull away the sails and jump into the river to escape.
After the canvas was stretched, the wind was very strong due to the southeast wind today.
Driven by the wind, all the burning ships rushed towards Jiang Siming's naval line, like hell chariots.
Huang Gai knew that the strategy was useless, but he was not to be outdone and let these fire ships crash into Jiang Siming's camp.
At least dozens of his warships can be destroyed, so Jiangdong will not lose blood.
Huang Gai jumped into the river and floated on the water, staring in the direction of Jiang Siming.
Those fireships were his last hope.
Seeing that the fire ship was about to rush in due to the strong wind, a huge net appeared on the river at some point!
A giant net made of iron cables!
