At this time, Lu Su dissuaded him and said, "Commander, you can't do that. Ziyi has always been a member of your sect, and now they are killing each other. When Cao Cao learns about this, he will definitely fabricate public opinion and slander the governor for killing his sect, which will be detrimental to the war."

"

Zhou Yu thought for a while and then said: "Well, for the sake of my classmates, I will keep your life for now. We will discuss it after the Cao Cao is defeated." After saying that, he ordered Jiang Gan to be imprisoned in a building by the river.

In the small nunnery, several soldiers were ordered to guard it.

At this time, Jiang Gan couldn't help but wonder, but he didn't expect that he almost lost his life. It was night, and Jiang Gan couldn't sleep. So he walked to the nunnery for a while. When he arrived at the entrance of the nunnery, he saw several guards sleeping lazily aside.

When Jiang Gan saw this, he wanted to walk outside the nunnery. At this moment, a sound of reading aloud came.

Jiang Gan quietly walked out of the nunnery door, and then walked towards the sound of books. When he came to a small house, he suddenly saw a man reading military books at night. Jiang Gan thought to himself: This must be a strange person. So he went in and asked his name. He only heard that

Humanity said: "I am Pang Tong, whose courtesy name is Shiyuan."

Jiang Gan was overjoyed: "So you are Mr. Fengchu." Pang Tong saw a stranger coming, so he also asked Jiang Gan's name. Jiang Gan also answered truthfully. After hearing this, Pang Tong was about to shout out. However, Jiang Gan clasped his hands.

He said: "Sir, don't panic, I don't have any ill intentions in coming here."

Pang Tong said: "Then why did you come?"

Jiang Qiandao: "I heard the sound of books being read loudly, so I came here looking for it."

"I thought you escaped from the nunnery, so I wanted to call someone over."

"I have long asked Your Excellency, why are you stooping here now?"

After Pang Tong heard this, he sighed and said: "I took refuge in the world. I originally wanted to throw myself to the east of the Yangtze River to help Wu Hou achieve great things, but I never thought that Wu Hou would not use me seriously. Instead, I made Zhou Yu's son the governor, so that we and others

Talent is buried here."

Jiang Gan pretended to sigh and said: "His talents are buried here. It will only be a matter of time before Jiangdong falls."

Pang Tong thought about this and became even more excited: "Zhou Yu's son asked me to monitor you here. There are countless generals in Jiangdong, but you let me, a weak scholar, take over the position of general. Isn't this an intentional humiliation to me?"

Jiang Gan didn't expect that Pang Tong was actually the one who was supervising him, so he thought to himself: Why don't I persuade him to surrender to the Prime Minister, and he can escape from this place then. So he said to Pang Tong, "Sir has fallen here, why don't you surrender to the Prime Minister? Ziyi will definitely be your sir."

Recommended."

Pang Tong said: "I have wanted to return to the Prime Minister for a long time, but I just hate that no one can recommend me. Now that Ziyi has said that, Shi Yuan will definitely abandon Jiangdong and join the Prime Minister."

Jiang Gan was overjoyed, so he and Pang Tong headed to the ferry overnight, avoiding many sentry patrols along the way. However, as soon as they arrived at the ferry, a soldier suddenly appeared behind them and asked, "Who are you and why are you here late at night?"

Pang Tongyi saw that it was a patrolman, so he replied: "We couldn't sleep, so we went for a walk by the river." He waited for an opportunity to approach the patrolman, then pulled out his dagger and stabbed him to the ground.

Then he pulled Jiang Qian and said: "Let us leave here quickly, otherwise we will be discovered by other patrols, and it will be difficult for you and me to escape."

At this time, Jiang Qian's speedboat was docked not far away. The two boarded the boat and quickly headed to the other side. Zhou Yu and others had already been watching them leave from the shore, with expressions on their faces.

Show a smile.

When they arrived at Cao's camp, Jiang Qian went in to see Cao Cao and prepared to narrate the previous events. Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard that Feng Chu had come to surrender, so he went out to greet him in person. Cao Cao said, "I've heard about Mr.'s name for a long time. When I see you today, I hope you'll give me some advice."

.”

Pang Tong said: "I have heard for a long time that the prime minister uses his troops like a god, how can he look down on such idle clouds and wild cranes?"

With that said, the two entered the tent. Pang Tong suddenly found that Xu Shu was also inside. Pang Tong couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. The two looked at each other for a moment, and Xu Shu nodded. Pang Tong knew what he meant. Cao Cao said happily: "

A gentleman has come to help Meng De. It seems that it will only be a matter of time before Jiangdong is pacified."

Pang Tong said: "Zhou Yu, a young boy, relies on his own abilities, does not listen to loyal advice, rejects public opinions, and thinks that he can stop the prime minister's army with one man's power. In fact, he does not overestimate his own capabilities."

Cao Cao said: "Sir, what you said is wrong. Although we have millions of troops, they are all soldiers and generals of Qing, Yan, and You. They are not accustomed to the nature of water, and it is difficult to compete with the naval forces in the east of the Yangtze River."

Pang Tong said: "Prime Minister, don't worry. When I see the army tomorrow, I will think that the Prime Minister will make some plans."

Cao Cao was overjoyed: "That's great!" After saying that, he ordered Pang Tong to be picked up. But Xu Shu, who was standing by, remained silent and did not tell Cao Cao about Pang Tong's plot.

The next day, Cao Cao led Pang Tong to visit the water and dry villages of Cao Jun's camp. At this time, he stood on a high ground and watched the entire military camp. He saw that the entire camp was well-proportioned, and the camps were connected. Looking back and forth, there were roads leading in and out.

Pang Tong sighed: "The Prime Minister has indeed mastered the essence of military art and arranged the camp in an orderly manner. Although Sun Bin is still alive, he can only do this."

Cao Cao said humbly: "Sir, it's over. You can take a look at my water village again."

Pang Tong looked over and saw that the warships were arranged in an orderly manner, with lanes passing through them. However, they were all moored on the shore and not connected to each other. So he said, "I wonder who the Prime Minister is now the commander-in-chief of the navy?"

"It's Yu Jin, Mao Jie!"

Pang Tong smiled and said: "Although the two of them have mastered the formation of the army, they have not mastered the essence of the navy."

Cao Cao asked anxiously: "Sir, what do you mean by this? What is wrong with our navy?"

"The navy's arrangement has three fatal drawbacks."

"What are the three major disadvantages?"

Pang Tong said: "First, the water and dry villages are too far apart, which is not conducive to coordinated operations; second, all warships are camped on the shore. Although this can overcome the dissatisfaction of the northern soldiers with the water and soil, once it comes into contact with the water of Soochow,

If the division goes to war, it will collapse without fighting; thirdly, the warships are camped alone, and they will be unstable if there is a slight wind and wave. This is not good for the habits of the northern soldiers, and if this continues, they will definitely suffer from serious diseases."

Cao Cao said: "What you said is true, but I wonder if you have any clever ideas to eliminate these hidden dangers?"

"I have a plan to eliminate all three hidden dangers."

"Want to hear the details."

Pang Tong said: "The Prime Minister can combine the water and land camps into one place, and the large and small boats can be tightly tied together with chains. Then the villages will be connected to the villages, and the boats will be connected to the boats, and the soldiers will be as if they are walking on land. In this way, the Prime Minister can

It is also a matter of giving full play to the strengths of the northern soldiers and generals. It can be said that it kills three birds with one stone. This is Shi Yuan's foolish opinion. I hope the Prime Minister will make his own decision."

After hearing this, Cao Cao was overjoyed and said: "Mr. Meng De's strategy is very admirable." After saying that, he ordered people to follow Pang Tong's instructions and tightly connect the villages, camps, and ships together. The camps stretched for dozens of times along the Wulin River.

, and extends hundreds of feet out of the river.
