Chapter 230: 3 Kingdoms: Mage Zhuge Kongming
[Cao's navy set out, and Zhou Yu also witnessed Cao's warships.
"Who is willing to fight and capture him with me?"
Han Dang and Zhou Tai said in unison: "We are willing to be the vanguard and go out to defeat the enemy."
At first, Cao's army did not deploy the linked warships, and the two armies fought and Cao's army was defeated. Zhou Yu challenged again and finally brought out Cao's linked warships.
Cao's linked warships charged directly at the Eastern Wu army, and the Eastern Wu army was defeated. Cao Cao was very satisfied with the victory of the linked warships, and he was more certain that the linked warships must be a powerful weapon to defeat the Eastern Wu navy.
...
Zhou Yu and Lu Su were laughing when suddenly a strong wind blew outside the tent and they hurried out of the tent.
"Grand Commander! The wind just started to blow, and the flag of the commander-in-chief of the Cao army's water fort was broken by the strong wind."
When Zhou Yu heard this, he looked at Lu Su and burst into laughter.
"This is a bad omen for the Northern Army! Zijing! Follow me to the riverside and watch. Let's go!"
The two men came to the riverside and boarded a warship accompanied by Han Dang and Zhou Tai to observe the movements of Cao's water stronghold in the north of the river.
Zhou Yu was very happy and said, "The battle array of Cao's camp is indeed amazing, but Cao Cao is still in the dark. Haha, I didn't expect that there would be a disaster in a few days."
Suddenly, the commander's flag was blown onto Zhou Yu's face by the strong wind. He grabbed the flag fiercely, and after keenly realizing that it was the northwest wind, he pointed towards Jiangbei, his eyes widened, blood spurted from his mouth, and he fell backwards.
Han Dang and others hurried to support him, but Zhou Yu was already unconscious.
＜How could Cao Cao not be proud when he controlled the north during the Battle of Red Cliff? He wanted to realize his ideal of “bringing the whole country together” [sigh]＞
＜Seeing this ship reminds me of the post-Three Kingdoms period, when the Jin Dynasty also used its large ships to defeat the Eastern Wu navy＞
＜No, it feels like the governor is just turning in his homework and then remembering that there is a big question left to answer...＞
＜Gongjin vomits blood, is this a foreshadowing?＞
＜Sun Ce: Gongjin, you are feudal and superstitious! ＞
＜Luo Guanzhong is a Zhuge Liang fanatic and loves to criticize him＞
[Zhou Yu in the fifth year of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty: Ah? I can't die early because of this, right?]
[Zhang Fei, the second year of Zhangwu in the Later Han Dynasty: Hey, Grand Commander, don't worry, you were shot by an arrow on the battlefield and didn't get enough rest...]
[Emperor Cao Cao of Wei: The warship is so big, I want to have one]

Eastern Han Dynasty, the fifth year of Jian'an

If nothing else, the warships shown in the video on the screen were enough to excite Cao Cao, so he ordered the painter to draw it completely without missing any detail.
He wants to build a warship according to this diagram!
Well, although Yuan Benchu is still in the north and these warships are not needed yet, for the sake of the future, there will always be that day.
Jiangdong
Sun Ce came from outside on horseback to see Zhou Yu.
"Gongjin! With your temper, I don't believe you are the same as you are on the screen. However, we still need to take care of our bodies! On the battlefield, it is easy to dodge an open spear but difficult to guard against an arrow from the dark. We must be extra careful!"
After that, he asked someone to introduce the doctor who came with him to Zhou Yu and asked him to take Zhou Yu's pulse.
Zhou Yu held his forehead with his hand, feeling somewhat helpless about Sun Ce's enthusiastic concern, but what else could he do but accept it.
Sun Ce looked at the screen for a while, then turned and stared at Zhou Yu and said, "Don't be superstitious. Don't be superstitious. Zhuge Kongming is definitely not as weird as the one on the screen. He is amazing."
...
[In the dead of winter, where is the southeast wind? Zhou Yu vomited blood and was bedridden.
Lu Su and Zhuge Liang walked into the tent of Grand Commander Zhou Yu, and Zhuge Liang knew why Zhou Yu was sick.
Zhuge Liang sighed: "Alas, the heart is burning with wind and fire, we must first regulate the qi. If the qi is smooth, the disease can be cured!"
"Liang has a way to calm the Grand Commander."
Zhuge Liang sat down at the table and wrote a few lines on the white silk. Zhou Yu looked at it and saw that it said "If you want to defeat Cao Gong, you should use fire attack; everything is ready, only the east wind is missing." Zhou Yu was shocked after reading it.
Zhuge Liang therefore told Zhou Yu his plan and told him that he could borrow a strong southeast wind for three days and three nights.
...
In the water fort of the Eastern Wu military camp, warships of various types gathered, and the soldiers were united as one. Zhou Yu, Lu Su and other generals came to the generals' platform in the water fort of the military camp.
Zhou Yu: "Immediately tell all the officers and men to pack up their boats, weapons, crossbows, etc., and be ready for orders. Once the order is issued, no one should disobey it. Anyone who disobeys will be executed!"
After Zhou Yu issued the military order, he frequently looked towards the Seven Star Tower on Nanping Mountain.
On the Seven Star Terrace, drums and trumpets sounded. Zhuge Liang looked around, burned incense in the furnace, poured water into the bowl, waved his sword, looked up to the sky and prayed silently, while waving his sword he performed a ritual to worship the wind.
The warships of all sizes of the Eastern Wu had been arranged, and the generals and soldiers were in position, waiting for Zhou Yu to give the military order.
Just at this moment, a wind suddenly blew in from outside the big tent. Zhou Yu saw the general flag at the door of the big tent fluttering, and everyone was surprised, it was the southeast wind!
Zhou Yu laughed and walked a few steps, then thought of Zhuge Liang and felt a tightness in his chest, and he almost vomited blood again.
Zhou Yu covered his chest with his hands and said, "Zhuge Liang has the ability to seize the destiny of heaven and earth, and the unpredictable skills of ghosts and gods! If we keep this man, he will definitely be the root of trouble for Dongwu in the future!"
So he ordered Ding Feng and Xu Sheng to lead troops to kill Zhuge Liang. Lu Su wanted to persuade them, but Zhou Yu would not listen.
Ding Feng and Xu Sheng led their soldiers to the Seven Star Altar, but Zhuge Liang had already left.
Xu Sheng and his men caught up with Zhuge Liang's boat and shouted, "Mr. Zhuge! The Grand Commander wants to see you!"
Zhuge Liang walked out of the cabin onto the deck with a goose feather fan in his hand, "Please reply to Commander Zhou and tell him to use his troops wisely. Zhuge Liang will be back to Xiakou for the time being and we will see each other another day."
"I know that Governor Zhou will not tolerate me and will come to harm me. I have already asked Zhao Zilong to come to help. General, there is no need to chase him. We will see you later."
Zhao Yun stood on the deck and shouted to Xu Sheng who was chasing after him.
"I am Zhao Zilong from Changshan. I have been ordered to come and fetch the military advisor. Why are you chasing me? I should have shot him with one arrow, but I was afraid of damaging the relationship between the two families. So I just wanted to teach you about my martial arts!"
After saying that, he drew his bow and shot down the sail of Xu Sheng's chasing warship, causing panic among the soldiers on the ship. Seeing this, Xu Sheng and Ding Sheng dared not continue chasing.

＜The Archmage Appears＞
＜Describing Zhuge Liang as a man of great wisdom and almost like a demon＞
＜Luckily Sun Bofu is dead, otherwise when he saw Zhuge Liang, the charlatan, he would have said: Zhuge Liang is a demon, drag him down and behead him!＞
＜Sun Bofu: Open my coffin!!!＞
＜Seeing the southeast wind at Chibi reminds me of the heavy rain at Shangfang Valley [crying]＞
＜You are a devil [crying]＞
＜Zhou Gongjin: It’s not a question of whether Zhuge Village Man is smart or not... This man is too scary! ＞
＜Zhou Lang always vomits blood, this is a heart disease!＞
＜If you can’t borrow the east wind, you’re afraid. If you borrow the east wind, you’re afraid of the consequences [covering your face]＞
＜Zhao Yun always acts as a bodyguard＞
＜This Zhao Yun comes to pick up Zhuge Liang, who else dares to take action [covering face]＞

The Second Year of Zhangwu in the Later Han Dynasty
Zhuge Liang himself looked at the "Zhuge Liang" dressed as a charlatan in the light screen video, with confusion, astonishment and puzzlement on his face.
Liu Chan stared directly at his master Zhuge Liang, his eyes shining, "Oh my god, my master is truly a god!!!"
Not only Liu Chan, but also his colleagues working in the Prime Minister's Office would look at Zhuge Liang from time to time...
Zhuge Liang blushed as everyone stared at him, so he had to wave his hands and said, "I really can't do that. I only know a little about astronomy..."
Jiang Wan, Ma Liang and Ma Su brothers all looked as if to say, "Prime Minister, you can say whatever you want, but we don't believe you."
This made Zhuge Liang, who had words on the tip of his tongue, simply shut up and continue working.

Eastern Han Dynasty, the fifth year of Jian'an
Xu Chang
Cao Cao fully understood Zhou Yu's fear of Zhuge Liang. How could he not be afraid? A man who could borrow the east wind just by saying so is really terrifying.
If it were me, I would also order people to kill Zhuge Kongming.
In fact, to be honest, Cao Cao did not believe that Zhuge Liang had the so-called ability to call the wind and rain. What is the difference between this and Zhang Jiao of the Yellow Turbans?
However, if it was not because of "magic" but because of Zhuge Liang's own strength... well... we can only praise this person for his mastery of astronomy and geography!
"This man is truly talented, but it's a pity that I cannot make use of him." This was the umpteenth time Cao Cao lamented that he could not make use of the talents of Liu Bei's side.
Jiangdong
Sun Ce was so shocked by Zhuge Liang's actions that he could not help himself. He looked at Zhou Yu and sighed, "Gongjin, I now understand the Zhou Yu on the screen. This man is too... amazing. If he cannot be used by Dongwu, he must be killed as soon as possible."
I wonder if Zhuge Kongming in this life will still stubbornly follow Liu Bei?
Zhou Yu nodded blankly. Their enemies in Dongwu were too terrible... We must make changes now!
So he showed the warship he had just drawn to Sun Ce.
"I plan to build a warship like this. This ship is slightly different from the one shown on the light curtain. I also made some adjustments based on the appearance of their later warships. Bofu, you see...we should do this..."
"We must improve on this basis to build larger warships and give full play to the advantages of our navy!"
Sun Ce nodded seriously, discussed with Zhou Yu for a while, and held Zhou Yu down to prevent him from getting up for the time being. "Gongjin! If you have any signs of vomiting blood, you must tell me in advance. I will find a cure for you no matter what."
Zhou Yu: “…”
