After thinking about all this, Pang Tong settled in Cao Jun's camp. A few iron chains were easy to make, and in a short time, the iron chains were made. The iron chains were connected to several warships. Then
After laying the planks, Cao Cao took Pang Yi aboard the warship connected by iron cables as promised.
On the warship, Cao Cao was obviously very happy. Just as Pang Tong said, the several warships connected by iron ropes did not sway at all. Standing on the warship felt like walking on flat ground, on such a stable warship
Fighting, Cao Jun's officers and men will no longer be seasick, and their combat effectiveness will be restored.
Cao Cao was obviously in a good mood, and his face was always filled with this smile. Pang Tong on the side saw this scene, and he kept laughing secretly in his heart. Cao Cao had been fooled, so he could retire with success.
Cao Ying himself wanted to leave a long time ago, because he had been annoyed by Cao Cao these past few days and felt helpless.
In the past few days, Cao Cao had been holding him back and holding him to discuss matters, which made Pang Tong not know how to deal with it. Now, Cao Cao obviously treated him as his subordinate, although Cao Cao did not really treat him like a real subordinate.
He treats himself normally, but this still makes Pang Tong feel very uncomfortable.
Now that Cao Cao finally believed in the iron rope and ship connection, he finally no longer had to listen to Cao Cao's nagging. After he returned to Cao Cao's camp, he thought about how to leave Cao Cao's camp safely. After all, Cao Cao's camp was heavily defended.
Without a reasonable plan, it would still be difficult for Pang Tong to leave Cao Jun's base camp.
After testing the power of the iron cables connecting the ships, Cao Cao ordered the craftsmen to work day and night to build iron cables to connect the warships. After the order was given, Cao Cao left the battlefield with his civil and military generals. Although the warships were very
It was stable, but the humid and cold weather obviously made Cao Cao feel very uncomfortable.
That night, Cao Cao held a banquet in honor of Pang Tong. Pang Tong offered Cao Cao such an excellent plan, so how could Cao Cao treat Pang Tong badly? At the banquet, Cao Cao once again extended an olive branch to Pang Tong and wanted Pang Tong to join Cao's army. But in the end, Pang Tong refused.
Although Pang Tong's words were very tactful, everyone knew that he refused.
What Pang Tong didn't know was that this was the last chance given to him by Cao Cao. If Pang Tong knew what he was interested in, he would join Cao Cao's army, but if Pang Tong didn't know what he was interested in, Cao Cao would have no choice but to put him under house arrest first. After all, after all these days of contact, Cao Cao also
Make sure that Pang Tong is indeed a talented person, and such a talent cannot be left to the enemy.
Although Pang Tong did not agree to surrender to Cao Cao's army, Cao Cao was disappointed, but he obviously didn't say much. Although Pang Tong rejected Cao Cao, he obviously had nothing to worry about. Could it be that Cao Cao would kill him? Although he was alone, he was also there.
Jing Xiang had some reputation, but he didn't believe that Cao Cao would do this.
After the dinner, Pang Tong returned to his camp. It was getting late now, and if he wanted to leave Cao's camp, he had to wait until dawn tomorrow. As soon as Pang Tong returned to his bed, a group of Cao's soldiers in armor broke in
After entering, without saying a word, several Cao Jun soldiers took Pang Tong under control.
Pang Tong wanted to resist, but how could he be the opponent of a group of tigers and wolves. After several Cao Jun soldiers controlled Pang Tong, they immediately forced Pang Tong out of the tent. Outside the tent, Cao Cao was standing there with a solemn face, looking at
From his appearance, Cao Cao was obviously not in a good mood. At this time, Cao Cao's face was gloomy and terrifying, which was completely opposite to his performance at the banquet just now. Pang Tong was quickly overwhelmed by Cao Cao, and at this moment, Pang Tong was obviously also
Realized something.
"Prime Minister Cao, what do you mean?" Pang Tong's words were obviously a little angry. He was obviously angry about what Cao Cao wanted to do. Could it be that he did it deliberately because he did not want to surrender to Cao Cao? However,
It shouldn't be. Although Cao Cao is known as stealing the country, he still respects talents very much.
Cao Cao showed a sneer, and then said: "What do I mean? I would like to ask you what you mean. You dare to propose such ambitious strategies as iron ropes and ships. You want to destroy my army, Cao Cao."
Such a huge foundation!" There was a hint of murderous intent in Cao Cao's tone, which made people feel very permeable.
Cao Cao's cold words immediately sent a chill down Pang Tong's spine. Just when he was about to say something, Guo Jia, who was behind Cao Cao, suddenly said: "The iron cable ship can indeed allow Cao's soldiers to walk on the ground as if they were on the ground, but if
If the enemy attacks or launches a fire attack, how should the several connected warships avoid it?"
Guo Jia's words completely left Pang Tong at a loss as to how to answer. Kong Ming and Zhou Yu wanted to attack Cao's army, but in order to create opportunities for them, they resorted to the strategy of admonishing the iron ropes and connecting ships. This strategy was entirely to cater to the firepower of the Sun and Liu coalition forces.
It was set up for attack. Now Guo Jia asked this question. How did Pang Tong answer?
Seeing that Pang Tong didn't know how to answer, Cao Cao sneered and said: "However, the plan of soldiers and yuan is not undesirable. The iron cable ship can indeed allow Cao's soldiers to walk on the ground on the warship. In fact, Pengju had proposed this plan long ago, not only
In this way, Pengju also made slight improvements on the basis of Shi Yuan. The iron cables connecting the warships were made detachable. If the enemy really attacked with fire, Cao Jun's warships could respond flexibly."
After listening to Cao Cao's words, Pang Tong immediately understood that he had been being played by Cao Jun. However, he obviously didn't understand why Cao Cao didn't do this if Cao Jun had a good opportunity. Why did Cao Cao have to wait for him to come up with his plan?
, in an instant, Pang Tong discovered that there must be a huge conspiracy behind this, a conspiracy that could reverse the outcome of the war.
At this moment, Pang Tong obviously became very indifferent. Since he knew that all this was Cao Jun's conspiracy, he didn't need to be pretentious. But Pang Tong wanted to know what Cao Jun was doing. So he raised his head and looked at Cao Cao.
Go, and then said: "Since Prime Minister Cao has already seen the opportunity, I have nothing to say. However, I am obviously not willing to die like this, so I hope Prime Minister Cao can clear up my doubts."
Cao Cao had obviously expected that Pang Tong would say this, but there were many people here, so it was not the place to talk. Cao Cao waved his hand, and several tiger and wolf warriors escorted Pang Tong away. Arriving at Cao Cao's camp, Cao Cao said to
He looked at the several Cao Jun guards who were escorting Pang Tong and said, "Stand back!" Cao Cao really took notice of Pang Tong. After all, Cao Cao had experienced hundreds of battles, so he was naturally a little stretched out. How could he be afraid of a counselor.
The guard turned and left the tent. At this moment, only Cao Cao and Pang Tong were in the tent. Cao Cao pondered for a moment, and then said: "Shi Yuan has always been very confused. In fact, all this was set up by our army for Zhou Yu.
In his opinion, everything Cao Jun did was according to his ideas. But in fact, Zhou Yu was led by our army. Let me tell you, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun are not interesting at all. He
The two of them live quite comfortably."
Cao Cao's words were like a bombshell, which shocked Pang De. He knew that in order to kill Cai Hao and Zhang Yun, Zhou Yu had painstakingly designed a big show for Jiang Gan to lure Cao's army into the game.
.But now it seems that Cao Jun has always been a spectator of the show and controls the direction of the show.
When Cao Cao said this, the thoughts in Pang Tong's mind suddenly became much clearer. Someone in Cao's army knew that Zhou Yu wanted Cai Mao's life, and then sent Jiang Gan to the camp on the other side to meet Zhou Yu. This was to create an opportunity for Zhou Yu.
Give Zhou Yu a chance to get rid of Cai Mao.
After getting rid of Cai Mao, Cao Jun intended to induce Zhou Yu to launch a total attack. However, Cao Jun also knew that if Zhou Yu felt that the matter went too smoothly, he would naturally become suspicious. Only by bringing it up himself could Zhou Yu trust the matter.
, so he appeared in Cao Jun's camp.
Everything is tempting Cao Jun and Zhou Yu to take the initiative to fight, but there is another point. Cao Jun is infected with the plague, and most of Cao Jun's soldiers have little fighting strength. Could it be that Cao Jun has even solved this problem? Pang Tong was confused, what if?
If this is the case, how could Cao Cao lose this battle if he is just waiting for work?
Cao Cao obviously guessed what Pang Tong was thinking, smiled slightly, and then said: "I also need to thank Governor Zhou for this matter. Governor Zhou sent people to assassinate Zhao Fei, and Peng Ju was injured, so I took Xu Ruo to Chibi. Xu Ruonai, I
The number one miraculous doctor in Xudu, with him here, I can prevent the plague!"
At this moment, Pang Tong obviously seemed a little powerless. Kong Ming and Zhou Yu had already decided how to deal with Cao Jun, and Cao Cao had already known what strategies Zhou Yu and others would use. Now that Cao Jun had spun a big net, he was waiting for the Sun and Liu coalition forces to rush in.
Cao Jun is not good at water warfare, but if Sun and Liu allied forces really launch an offensive, then the Battle of Chibi will turn into a water battle and turn into a land battle. On land, Pang Tong has never seen soldiers who can match Cao Jun. Yes.
He said that as long as Zhou Yu launched an offensive, the Sun-Liu coalition would definitely be defeated.
Pang Tong sighed slightly. Cao Cao's army was indeed extremely powerful. Looking up at Cao Cao, Pang Tong asked weakly: "This plan is very clever. I wonder if it is Zhao Pengju's plan?"
Cao Cao nodded and told Pang Tong everything, just a few sentences. At this time, Pang Tong finally felt the power of Zhao Fei. He had not seen Zhao Fei in Cao's army for a long time. He wanted to come to Zhao Fei.
Fei was still on the bed. Lying on the bed, he could play with Kong Ming and Zhou Yu. It seemed that he had underestimated Zhao Fei. Zhao Fei's resourcefulness was indeed unfathomable. To be an enemy of such a person, it turned out that
It's a very unremarkable thing.
After Cao Cao said this to himself, Pang Tong knew that he was afraid of losing his life. These are the most confidential matters among Cao Cao's army. If Zhou Yu heard it, it would not be a major event that could damage Cao Cao's army.
"Don't worry, Shiyuan. As long as you stay in Cao Jun's camp while Cao Jun and Sun Liu's coalition are fighting to decide the winner, I won't take your life!" Cao Cao suddenly said.
