Chapter 197: Zhuge Liang Comes Out of the Mountain
Chapter 197 Zhuge Liang comes out
Hearing Zhuge Liang's words, Zhao Feng also showed a look of interest. It was like the rumor that he lived in a thatched cottage but knew the world's affairs.
"Then Mr. Kong Ming, could you have considered that Cao Jun's soldiers are not good at water warfare? If you take this into account, what chance does Cao Jun have of winning?"
Looking at Zhao Feng in front of him, Zhuge Liang also showed a surprised expression. I am afraid that this person is as talented as himself.
It's not the kind of high-pitched talk that happens in casual chats, but every sentence goes straight to the core, the most critical part.
Zhuge Liang nodded and said: "This point is indeed very important, but I still think Cao Jun will win this battle!"
Zhao Feng asked curiously: "Why did Kong Ming say this?"
Seeing Zhao Feng's eyes like this, Zhuge Liang waved the feather fan in his hand again and said with a smile: "Have you ever heard of the Eight-Door Golden Lock Formation?"
Zhao Feng smiled and said: "Of course we know that this formation has eight gates, from the Sheng Gate and the Jing Gate. If you open the door, you will be lucky. If you enter through the Shang Gate, you will be surprised. If you close the gate, you will be injured. If you enter through the Du Gate, you will be injured. If you enter through the Death Gate, you will be injured."
Death!"
"I wonder if what I said is wrong?"
As soon as he said this, Zhuge Liang's expression changed drastically and he could no longer sit still.
His originally calm expression also revealed a trace of surprise, and he asked: "Brother, do you also know this?"
If you weren't proficient in Qimen Dunjia's celestial phenomena and stars, how could you be so familiar with the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation?
This formation is an ancient formation. Even those who know about this formation have mostly heard of it from ancient books.
Moreover, most of the records about this formation have been lost long ago, but Zhao Feng said it so accurately. How could Zhuge Liang not be surprised?
Looking at Zhuge Liang's expression, Zhao Feng was not surprised, but said calmly: "I can't say that I am proficient, I only know a little bit. Naturally, I am still inferior to Kong Ming in Qimen Dunjia."
Back then, Zhuge Liang was able to rely on Qi Men Dun Jia to improve the Eight Door Golden Lock Formation into an Eight Formation Diagram. At the same time, he relied on this to create the Wooden Ox and Flowing Horse, Zhuge Liannu. In terms of Qi Men Dun Jia's attainments, even Zhao Feng was no match for him.
"But why did Kong Ming mention this formation?"
However, Zhuge Liang did not answer Zhao Feng's question at this moment. Instead, he looked at Zhao Feng and became curious about this person's identity.
After a while, Zhuge Liang smiled slightly and said: "There are great talents in Cao's army!"
"I heard that Cao Cao has a military advisor named Zhao Feng. This person can help Cao Cao unify the six northern states. He is extremely outstanding!"
Hearing Zhuge Liang mention him, Zhao Feng suddenly felt interesting and couldn't help but ask: "Only him?"
Zhuge Liang nodded solemnly: "Only him!"
"It is no exaggeration to say that as long as Zhao Feng is here, Cao's army will never be defeated. It will be a matter of time to capture Jingzhou!"
Seeing Zhuge Liang's expression, without any intention of joking, Zhao Feng couldn't help but admire him.
Zhuge Liang is still Zhuge Liang, and he is still so accurate in judging people.
Zhao Feng looked at Zhuge Liang in front of him and smiled and said: "Since sir is so familiar with the world's situation, why don't you go out and do something big?"
As soon as he said this, Zhuge Liang looked over with a look of curiosity.
"Since Brother Zhao Feng has come in person, I naturally have to give it some thought."
Now that Nanyang is in Cao Cao's hands, it is not surprising that Nanyang appears here as the first stop of Cao Cao's march to Jingzhou.
Hearing Zhuge Liang say his name, Zhao Feng's expression did not change at all. Instead, he looked at Zhuge Liang with a faint smile.
It is not surprising to recognize Zhuge Liang with his talent.
After a while, Zhuge Liang asked a question that he didn't want to worry about at all.
"Jiangdong, how do you solve it?"
There was a hint of surprise in Zhao Feng's eyes, and at this moment he had to admit that Zhuge Liang surprised him.
"Kong Ming actually knows about Jiangdong?"
Regarding this matter, he smiled and said: "I only know a lot about Jiangdong."
Looking at Zhuge Liang in front of him, Zhao Feng smiled and said, "Isn't there Sun Ce in Jiangdong?"
As soon as he said this, Zhuge Liang's eyes began to brighten and he laughed. It was obvious that this answer was very satisfactory to him.
"Then Liang, you can take a look at this world of great men!"
Zhuge Liang showed a smile and agreed to Zhao Feng's request.
In Xinye, Nanyang, the sky was already covered with sunset. At this time, two people walked to Xinye from the mountains and fields, talking and laughing.
Seeing Zhao Feng returning, Cao Ren couldn't help but ask: "Military advisor, is this your tea friend?"
He heard that the military advisor went to drink tea in the mountains every day these days, but he didn't expect it to be this person.
Zhao Feng smiled and said: "This is Zhuge Liang. His talent is not inferior to yours in the slightest. Moreover, I am afraid that no one in the entire Han Dynasty is better than him in the eight-door golden lock array that you have studied."
After saying this, Cao Ren couldn't help but look solemn, and said respectfully: "Zixiao has met Mr. Kong Ming."
Can he be an ordinary person if he is so familiar with the Eight Gate Golden Lock Formation?
Even Guo Jia's research on the Eight-Door Golden Lock Formation is only superficial, but the military advisor said that this person is proficient in the Eight-Door Golden Lock Formation!
Cao Ren understood in an instant why the military advisor went to such trouble to find this person for tea.
Just relying on this person is enough to gain a high position among the big men. What's more, how could Mr. Kong Ming have just this talent?
Zhao Feng nodded and introduced: "Cao Ren, whose courtesy name is Zixiao. General Cao is extremely fascinated by the Eight Gate Golden Lock Formation. If Kong Ming is free, I can give you some advice."
Zhuge Liang smiled and nodded.
Zhao Feng waved his hand and said to Cao Ren: "General Zixiao, continue your work. I will take Kong Ming to take a look in the city."
After hearing this, Zhuge Liang also showed a hint of expectation. He was very curious about Cao Jun.
For him, Cao Cao, the most powerful among the Han Dynasty, had indeed the most mysterious men. He could accurately know the current strength of Jiangdong, but he did not dare to draw a conclusion on how many troops Cao Cao still had.
During the Battle of Guandu, he had already heard that Cao Cao still had many unorganized troops outside.
Taking into account the rich population of the prefectures and counties under Cao Cao, the strength of the troops in his hands is even more difficult to predict.
Under the leadership of Zhao Feng, he took a brief tour of the new field that he had not seen for a long time.
Soon they arrived at Cao Jun's station. Zhuge Liang looked at Zhao Feng and asked proactively: "Commander, how many soldiers and horses are there in Nanyang?"
Zhao Feng said: "One hundred and fifty thousand!"
Zhuge Liang nodded. He had long heard that all Cao's soldiers were wearing armor. When he saw them today, he was surprised. Not only were they all wearing armor, but there were also some leftover armor and heavy armor.
It seems that Cao's army may have more money than he thought, and these soldiers are obviously very different from ordinary soldiers.
In this military camp, he didn't see a single soldier who was slightly thin.
Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "I'm afraid the military advisor has long expected to encounter this battle in Jingzhou, right?"
"These soldiers are all strong and strong. Even if they are not good at water fighting, with their physical constitution, they only need to be trained to adapt."
Zhao Feng nodded: "And in order to train such soldiers, their meals will not be bad."
