A full moon hangs in the sky, and the round moon is reflected in the water, swaying with the ripples on the river surface.
The cold wind blows on the river, and large ships are docked quietly in the middle of the river. Standing on the river, they look like giant beasts docked, which is very scary. On the warships, three-pronged stands support an iron pot, and the iron pot is filled with fire.
The red black coals and charcoal fire were burning brightly, lighting up the dark night and reflecting the surroundings of the warship in red.
On the warship, the soldiers had all rested, and there were only a dozen or so soldiers on patrol at night, very few.
The reason is that Wu Yi stationed his troops on the river and was not afraid of enemy attacks.
Therefore, Wu Yi dared to patrol the night with so few people. Not only that, even the more than ten soldiers who patrolled the night were leaning on the inside of the ship, squinting their eyes and taking a nap, not paying attention. The soldiers could sleep, but Wu Yi lay on the
On the bed, I tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. The reason was that Liu Yan conveyed an order to march troops to attack Nanzheng tomorrow.
Wu Yi tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, so he simply got up, put on his clothes and walked out of the boat.
Arriving on the deck, Wu Yi suddenly woke up as the cold wind from the river blew.
He looked at the sleeping soldiers around him without being harsh, because he also believed that there would be no enemy attack. Wu Yi looked at the misty river, with a look of contemplation on his face, thinking about how to ensure his own safety.
Next, march to Nanzheng and attack Wang Can.
He stood on the bow of the boat, looking at the misty river surface, lost in thought.
At some point, the sky suddenly turned dark.
"Hey! Why is it getting dark?" Wu Yi suddenly woke up, looked up, and saw clusters of dark clouds suddenly appeared in the sky with twinkling stars, covering the full moon hanging in the sky, and the stars disappeared.
Dark clouds covered the area, and the moonlight reflected on the river disappeared.
In the blink of an eye, the city was already covered with dark clouds, threatening to destroy it, and the dark night was heart-stopping.
"Tick tock! Tick tock!..."
Drops of rain fell and splashed on the floor, making a splashing sound. The soldier who was taking a nap with his eyes closed felt a cold face. When he opened his eyes and saw heavy rain pouring down, he hurriedly picked up the spear placed aside and went to
He walked into the big boat. However, Wu Yi was soaked all over, but he still stood in the rain curtain in a daze, staring at the splashing rain curtain in a daze.
The rain was heavy, but he did not immediately return to the boat because of the heavy rain.
Seeing this, Wu Yi's bodyguard rushed out with a coir raincoat and put it on Wu Yi.
After the soldier finished doing this, he stood quietly beside Wu Yi.
"Hahaha... God helps me, God helps me!"
Suddenly, Wu Yi laughed loudly, with a look of joy on his face. He spread his hands in the rain curtain, followed by the heavy rain falling from the sky, and said with a smile: "It's raining well, it's raining well!" While speaking,
Wu Yi walked to the bow of the boat again. He stood on the bow of the boat, stretched out his head, and looked at the splashing water on the river. He was even more happy when he saw that the river was rushing and the water was turbulent.
Fortunately, the anchors of all warships are very heavy, which is enough to ensure that the big ship can dock.
"General, the rain is getting heavier and heavier. General, please return to the cabin."
Wu Yi's bodyguard stood beside Wu Yi and persuaded him softly.
He flicked his sleeves, bringing up countless water droplets, and said with a smile: "Okay, let's go back to the cabin." At this time, even though Wu Yi was wearing a raincoat, his body was still wet from the rain, and his bun was a little messy. He walked in
In the cabin, a gust of hot air blew against his face, causing Wu Yi to sneeze unexpectedly, and at the same time he felt a gust of cold air coming from the soles of his feet.
"Quick, prepare ginger soup and hot water for the general immediately!"
Wu Yi's guards gave orders, and soldiers went down to prepare.
Not long after, the soldier walked up to Wu Yi carrying a bowl of steaming ginger soup and handed it to Wu Yi respectfully.
The guard took it, handed it to Wu Yi to drink, and then asked Wu Yi to take a hot bath, and then he felt relieved. Wu Yi is the commander-in-chief of the army. If something goes wrong with Wu Yi, the guards will also suffer.
Not only was he faced with military law, but he was also faced with the harsh words from Wu Yi’s wife.
Therefore, Wu Yi's bodyguards were extra careful to prevent Wu Yi's health. Wu Yi enjoyed three-star treatment, put on clean and fresh clothes, and ordered: "Invite the generals to the hall immediately to discuss matters."
The hall is a separate place on the ship set aside for discussion.
Wu Yi wore a brocade robe and a jet black cloak and walked towards the hall.
About a quarter of an hour later, all the generals gathered in the hall. These people bowed to Wu Yi, then sat in their seats, waiting for Wu Yi to speak. However, Wu Yi did not speak, but walked to the hall.
At the door, he looked at the pouring rain outside the hall, with a smile on his face.
After a while, Wu Yi returned to the seat and sat down.
He glanced at the generals in the hall, took a deep breath, and said: "Everyone, the heavy rain has made the river foggy, filled with water vapor, and the line of sight has been blocked, making it impossible to sail. Moreover, the heavy rain has caused the river to surge, and the water is very turbulent. There are people everywhere.
It’s a whirlpool. It’s very dangerous to sail a boat at this time, and there’s a high risk of capsizing. What countermeasures can you take?”
To say that the ship capsized is actually an exaggeration.
Although the current on the river is turbulent, if the person steering the boat is familiar with the wind direction, there will generally be no danger.
"General, my lord has given the order to march to Nanzheng to break the current deadlock. Even if the water is strong, but the lord's order is conveyed, we must rush to Nanzheng and complete the lord's order. Even if there is a danger of capsizing the ship, it is nothing.
There are only one or two ships in the minority, and it is impossible for all big ships to encounter whirlpools. Furthermore, the ship we are traveling on is a large warship, which is not afraid of wind and waves, so the general does not need to worry about the safety of the big ship."
The speaker's name was Dong He, also named Youzai, and he was from Zhijiang, Nanjun (now Zhijiang, Hubei).
Under Liu Yan's command, Dong He served successively as the magistrate of Niuchang County and Jiangyuan County. Now he serves as the magistrate of Chengdu and accompanied Wu Yi on the expedition.
His face was cold, his eyes were long and narrow, and the eyebrows above his eyes formed a horoscope, giving off a sinister vibe. Dong He was sitting on the seat, upright, with a cold look on his face, which made the colleagues around him feel a little depressed.
, dare not get too close to Dong He.
In the novel, Dong He is not famous.
But when it comes to Dong He's son Dong Yun, he is very famous. Together with Zhuge Liang, Fei Yi, and Jiang Wan, he is also known as the Four Heroes of the Shu Han Dynasty.
In fact, Dong He's authority is also very important in the history books.
When Liu Bei took control of Yizhou, he immediately recruited Dong He as the commander-in-chief of the army. Together with Zhuge Liang, he acted as an agent for the government affairs of General Zuo and Da Sima (at that time, Liu Bei was appointed as General Zuo and Da Sima). Moreover, Dong He and Zhuge Liang also had a good talk.
, the relationship is very good. Youdao means that things of the same kind flock together and people belong to groups. Being able to get Zhuge Liang's favor shows that this person is very capable.
However, those who are capable are often jealous of others.
Wu Yi, in particular, had very strong opinions on Dong He.
The reason is that Wu Yi and Dong He had different opinions.
Dong He persuaded Wu Yi to seize the opportunity and lead the troops to attack Nanzheng when Wang Can led his troops to leave Nanzheng, making it difficult for Wang Can to take care of him. However, Wu Yi said that after the victory of the other two armies, he would gather together with the three armies.
The Lu army attacked Nanzheng. Because there were two other armies escorting him, Wu Yi was not fighting alone. The army he led was safer and there was no danger to his life.
After hearing this, Wu Yi felt slightly cold in his heart and looked at the first person on the right with a look of expectation in his eyes.
"Magistrate Dong, your words are different!"
The speaker's name is Fei Guan, and he is sitting first on the right.
This man was wearing a long gown with long sleeves and a broad collar, fluttering skirts, red lips and white teeth, calm eyes, an elegant look, and three long beards swaying slightly under his chin. He had an extraordinary bearing that was heart-breaking.
This person was from a large family in Jingzhou, and when Liu Yan entered Shu, he also moved to Shu. Not only that, Fei Guan and Liu Yan also had a complicated marriage relationship. Liu Zhang's mother was Fei Guan's clan aunt, which meant that Fei Guan and Liu Yan had a complicated marriage relationship.
Fei Guan and Liu Zhang had a close friendship. Not only that, Fei Guan also married Liu Yan's daughter and was Liu Yan's son-in-law.
Like Wu Yi, Fei Guan was a relative of Liu Yan.
Wu Yi's sister married Liu Mao and was Liu Mao's uncle.
Fei Guan's aunt married Liu Yan, a shepherd in Yizhou, and gave birth to Liu Zhang, who was Liu Zhang's cousin; and Fei Guan also married Liu Yan's daughter, who was also Liu Zhang's brother-in-law. The relationship was very complicated, but they were still relatives.
Both of them have the same background and are on the same front. Moreover, Fei Guan also agrees with Wu Yi's thoughts. When he saw Wu Yi's eyes, he immediately understood and stood up to refute Dong He and refused to let him.
Dong He's plan succeeded. Fei Guan, like Wu Yi, wanted to stay on the river and live a happy life.
After hearing this, Dong He asked: "Master Fei, may I ask what you have to say?"
As he spoke, Dong He showed a sense of disdain.
That look made both Fei Guan and Wu Yi feel uncomfortable.
However, in any case, the two of them are indeed not as qualified as Dong He. Dong He is a grassroots worker who has worked his way up step by step from the grassroots level. He has served as officials at all levels and has better abilities than the two of them in all aspects. The only thing between the two of them is that they are better than Dong He.
What's great is the background, because both of them have Liu Yan as their backer, but Dong He is a grassroots person who can only rely on his own ability to climb up.
Fei Guan said with a smile: "Mr. Dong, you might as well go to the bow of the ship to see the heavy rain. If you observe the situation, you should understand that according to the current rain intensity, it will not stop in a day or two. The heavy rain is falling, and the rain is strong.
It is very turbulent and the river is hazy with rain and fog. If we are marching, the load will be too heavy and the resistance will be too great for a large ship, so accidents will easily occur."
Having said this, Fei Guan's lips raised with a sneer, and he said: "Mr. Dong, if you are eager to march and want to make achievements, you can lead an army as a vanguard to attack Nanzheng. What do you think?"
After saying that, Fei Guan looked at Dong He proudly.
After hearing this, Wu Yi also smiled. Fei Guan's words were so good and in line with his wishes.
In the hall, the other generals were silent.
These three gods are fighting with each other, and it is most appropriate for them to stand aside and watch. Once involved, whether you remain neutral or support one of the parties, you will be criticized by the other side, or be chased and intercepted by both sides. Therefore, the hall
The young generals sitting in the middle watched with cold eyes, waiting for the victorious side to announce the order, and then just echoed it.
Finally, Dong He heard Fei Guan's words and cursed: "Shuzi!"
Immediately, Dong He stopped talking and chose to remain silent.
If he were to lead an attack alone, he would be too weak and weak to gain a foothold. Dong He was a shrewd man and could see the situation clearly, so of course he would not be able to take the initiative to lead an attack.
Wu Yi and Fei Guan looked at each other and immediately announced their decision: wait until the heavy rain stops before continuing on their way.
However, at this time, a hundred meters away from the big ship, a small warship was riding the wind and waves in the heavy rain, shaking constantly. On the warship, a strong young man stood on the bow, looking at the ships vaguely revealed in the mist in the distance.
The big ship showed a cold light in its eyes.
This night is destined to be restless.
