350 Re-angry Zhou Yu, Pang Tong returned to his place
Here, Kou Yan retaliated against Zhou Yu and made Zhou Yu angry, but he didn't expect that there was a person in Xiangyang City whose mind was active. This person is Cai Mao. Cai Mao's life in Xiangyang City is now very unsatisfactory. He thought that Cao Cao would go down to the south of the Yangtze River and would inevitably dominate the rivers and lakes, so he gave Xiangyang in a hurry and surrendered his clan.
Unexpectedly, Cao Cao was defeated when he went south this time, and he was so defeated, his eyebrows were burned by people, Huarong Dao died nine times, and the wolf was unbearable. If Cai Mao was still surprised at this time and did not regret it, then the news he got immediately afterwards said that the Changsha Kou clan and Jiangdong joined forces to kill Liu Bei, and the Sun clan successfully occupied Jiangling, and further waved his army to the north, and now he is still camped outside Xiangyang City.
Cai Mao was shocked into a cold sweat, others didn't know, but he knew very well that Liu Bei was Kou Yan's father! This girl's heart was so cold and hard that she even killed her own father! Unexpectedly, she said that she would not form an alliance with Jiangdong and remain neutral, and when Cao Cao was defeated, she immediately judged the situation and decisively formed an alliance with Jiangdong to destroy Liu Bei. It seems that I still looked away at the beginning, thinking that no matter how special she was, she was just a female baby and couldn't make big waves. Unexpectedly, she repeatedly "surprised" herself.
This time it was even more powerful, she actually formed an alliance with the enemy and stabbed her father! This, is this still a human being? Such a ruthless and cunning woman who will do whatever it takes to achieve her goals, how can her heart be fit in the small four counties of Lingnan? What does she want?
Thinking of his own deviant daughter, he actually eloped with Liu Qi and went to Changsha and fell into the hands of Kou Yan, although he had already used his concubine Li Dai Tao stiff. But every time he thought about it, he felt extremely aggrieved. When Cao Cao left, he took Liu Cong and Mrs. Cai with him, but left him and Kuai Yue in Xiangyang, nominally trusting them and wanting them to help Cao Ren stabilize the situation in Xiangyang. But Cai Mao can imagine with his toes that Cao Ren will not stay in Xiangyang forever, and he and Kuai Yue are about the same.
Although he had long been ready to go to the north, he had even secretly purchased a property in Xudu. But if he really wanted to give up the luxurious and comfortable life in Xiangyang and move to the bitter cold land of the north to suffer, it was still difficult for him to convince himself.
It's just that. Today's Xiangyang is no longer the Xiangyang when he covered the sky with one hand. Cao Ren's 50,000 heavy soldiers turned the once prosperous and lively Xiangyang City into a cold military city. The wartime special regulations ensured Cao Ren's primacy. And Cai Mao and Kuai Yue are not assistants at all, but are endlessly exploited and guarded by Cao Ren.
Especially recently, Zhou Yu presented troops to the city of Xiangyang, and the situation in Xiangyang became tense again. Although Cao Ren never took the less than 40,000 soldiers brought by Zhou Yu in his eyes. But that's tens of thousands, after all. Not two or three people. The necessary wartime vigilance is still required. It's just that when is this kind of vigilance going to be the end!
Cai Mao drank honey water in the patio of her house, which was originally the most comfortable time, and the sweet **** Qinghuo was delicious, but. Drinking into Cai Mao's mouth now, it tastes like chewing wax, and he puts it down after a few sips. Just when Cai Mao, who was spread out in the chair and couldn't lift his energy, was bored, the family outside rushed in: "Master, there is a new movement outside the city, a new army is coming, and the word Kou is clearly written on the banner!"
"What? She's here too?" Cai Mao stood up suddenly: "What about the Jiangdong army outside the city?" "No, the little one listened to the Cao army soldiers at the head of the city, and he saw with his own eyes that someone had taken food out of the camp tent with the word Kou written on it and sent it to the Jiangdong camp!"
Cai Mao was stunned for a long time when he heard this, and he couldn't come back to his life: "It's over, it's all over now, they're going to join forces to fight in!" Even if there are only 40,000 people in Jiangdong, they are all iron-blooded divisions that have experienced the battle for Jiangling, plus the new force of Changsha, the two are superimposed, and it is easy to get together 100,000 soldiers and horses, maybe more than 100,000, 15 or 200,000 is unknown, Cao Ren, can you hold it! If you can't hold it, what should I do?
Cai Mao was a little panicked in her heart, and then paced back and forth in the courtyard after waving off the pawn, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that she had no bottom in her heart, maybe this vicious little girl could really drive away Cao Ren and occupy Xiangyang. When the time comes, how will I face her?
In my impression, this girl has sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, and her temper is obedient and cannot be fathomed by common sense, and she has no good impression of herself at all. If she enters Xiangyang, she will definitely not have her own good fruit to eat. At this time, Cai Mao no longer had the heart to drink any honey water, so he quickly came to the study to find his henchman, wrote a letter to him, and asked him to secretly go to Kuaiyue's mansion.
In order to prevent Cai Kuai's two families from joining forces again and threatening his rule, Cao Ren took care of both families, although their daily entry and exit were not affected, but it was impossible for the two families to join forces. Therefore, it is only up to the people below to exchange messages to confuse the public.
Not to mention Cai Kuai's two families, they are each worried. Kou Yan, who was stationed outside the city, was very comfortable. After Zhang Fei confirmed the bodies of Liu Guan and the others, he sent a letter to Kou Yan, saying that Liu Bei was thinking of going to Changsha after leaving Xinye, and could he find a place in Changsha to bury Liu Bei and Guan Yu? Kou Yan wrote a reply letter with a stroke of his pen at that time, not only agreeing to Zhang Fei's request, but also telling Zhang Fei that he had taken full authority to handle the funerals of Liu Guan and the others, and that she would provide all the funds and manpower needed, and let Zhang Fei ask Jiang Wan for it. And Kou Yan has only one condition, that is, as he said before, the child who pretended to be Liu Chan will be treated as the real Liu Chan and buried with Liu Bei.
After the reply letter was sent, Kou Yan completely erased Liu Bei from his heart. The next thing is to deal with Zhou Yu on the other side. As soon as Zhanfei's confirmation letter arrived. Kou Yan returned the remains of the two old generals, Cheng Pu and Han Dang, to Zhou Yu in the same way as agreed. And Zhou Yu also had to send a pawn to confirm that during this time, Kou Yan was merciful enough to send a second batch of grain to the military camp in Jiangdong.
It's just that this batch of grain has exchange conditions, and Zhou Yu must hand over Pang Tong to exchange for this batch of grain. Otherwise, 40,000 soldiers will be starved to death!
Of course, Zhou Yu was so angry that he almost moved his murderous intent, wanting to kill Pang Tong and then fight to the death with the shameless Kou Yan. But. He knew very well in his heart that even if he fought to the death, it would only be a waste of giving food to the other party to abuse, and his own side would have no chance of winning at all. Now the remaining less than 40,000 soldiers in the battalion are all Jiangdong's disciples! Connected with Jiangdong's bloodline, when Jiangdong attacked Jiangling six times, Jiangdong had already suffered heavy losses, and it was almost to the point of bleeding and drifting, these 40,000 people finally survived, did he really want to let them die?
After two days of tossing and turning. Mei Zhoulang, who was originally graceful and suave, is now haggard and no longer human. Pang Tong saw him like this. I can't bear it in my heart, after all, I have worked under Zhou Yu for such a long time, although Zhou Yu has become a little rigid and self-serving in the later stage, and I don't quite adopt his opinion. But after all, every time I see him, I can still treat him politely. Therefore, he also sincerely pointed out Jiangdong's weakness in the introduction of talents. And kindly reminded Zhou Yu. In the future, don't go outside to seek talents, there are a few very talented people in Jiangdong, such as Lu Xun, a young junior of the Lu family. is a rare talent, and with a little training, the effect will definitely be much greater than that of an outsider.
Who knew that when Zhou Yu heard Lu Xun's name, he was sullen again. On the surface, it's not good to attack Pang Tong, and he can't tell him clearly, not only can he not cultivate Lu Xun, but he can't even have too much contact with each other, if he proposes to cultivate Lu Xun, then he will definitely find death, Sun Quan will definitely move him farther, and it is possible that he will not want to regain military power in this life.
Who is Lu Xun? Is that the Lu family's descendant, Sun Ce's son-in-law, Sun Shao's brother-in-law, and the object of Sun Quan's key attention! When he first attacked Jianchang, why did Sun Quan temporarily change his commander and transfer Lu Xun back to Wu County? Wasn't it because he was not at ease with him? Unless his brain was squeezed by the door, he would provoke the Lu family, and didn't he stretch his neck out and cut Sun Quan? Although Lu Xun was his nominal niece and son-in-law, this was not the case with Sun Quan.
Of course, Pang Tong will not know about the twists and turns in this relationship, he just simply thinks that Lu Xun is good and talented, since Zhou Yu will find any outsider who is not suitable for him like him, it is better to tap local talents, which is beneficial to both parties. Poor Pang Tong is a person who can't chat from time to time!
It's just that Zhou Yu didn't blame Pang Tong, but politely sent him out of the Jiangdong camp. One hand to the person and the other hand to the grain. Zhou Yu can finally officially retire from the army.
Pang Tong left the Jiangdong camp and was directly taken into Kou Yan's Chinese military tent. Kou Yan was naturally happy when he saw him, but Pang Tong smiled bitterly. Even if he wanted to defect to Changsha a little, it was definitely not in the way he was now! This made him look so cheap! Therefore, he made an embarrassed face and stepped forward to greet Kou Yan and Xu Shu: "The villain Jingzhou Pang Zi has seen Lord Taishou!"
"Ah, why is Senior Brother Pang so polite!" Kou Yan waved his hand indifferently: "At my apprenticeship banquet back then, your uncle said that if you count from him, you are the same level as my teacher, I can't call you Senior Brother, I have to change my name to Senior Uncle!"
Pang Tong's face turned red and he didn't dare to say that he didn't dare: "Lord Taishou is too serious, the villain is just a failed strategist, and it is not worth your thoughts." ”
"Senior brother, are you bullying me for being young and fooling me? Do you think I don't know about you? As early as when I was apprenticed, your uncle had already praised you as the first in Jingzhou! At that time, I took my teacher and took such a big risk to go to Jianchang, originally I wanted to find a chance to meet you, but you avoided it, and the teacher said at that time that you were determined to go to Jiangdong.
I have always thought in my heart that the people in Jiangdong are extremely xenophobic, and in their eyes, their own people are good, and outsiders are all bad, damned. I came into contact with a lot of Jiangdong people, and each one was more disgusting than the other. You're not happy to be a counselor there. Since there is this good opportunity now, which can not only let Zhou Yu let you go, but also anger him again, the best of both worlds, I naturally will not let go of this opportunity. Senior brother, don't sue me, I thought wrong, you are like a fish in water under Zhou Yu, and you don't want to change places at all?"
"This, of course not. Pang Tong didn't expect Xiao Taishou to be so deeply committed to himself. Of course, he knew about the night of Tai Shici's funeral, Kou Yan's banquet guests, and he also received a personal invitation, but he had already accepted the olive branch thrown by Zhou Yu at that time, and was determined to go to Jiangdong to break into his career, so he naturally avoided suspicion and did not participate. Could it be that Xiao Taishou is Jianchang who went specifically for him?
As I said before, if someone else says these incendiary words, it will give people the feeling that there is an element of acting, but Kou Yan said it differently. Pang Tong just hesitated for a moment and believed it. "It's really deserving that the villain can be so appreciated by Lord Taishou......!
"Hey, senior brother, it's only me and the teacher here, I'll call you senior brother, and if you do this again, I'll call you uncle?" Kou Yan was really about to shout, Pang Tong was startled: "I can't help it! I, I, let's call you senior brother!"
"That's right, senior brother!" Kou Yan called out sweetly, Pang Tong didn't dare to raise his head, and the roots of his ears were red. Seeing this, Xu Shu had no choice but to help his forehead, and he couldn't stop it, don't talk about Pang Tong, who is not good at chatting, or I will come forward to solve the siege!
"Yan'er, since you took Shiyuan out of Zhou Yu, what are you going to let him do?" As soon as Xu Shu said this, Kou Yan's eyes lit up, but Pang Tong lowered his head, and the feeling of cheapness came again. He obviously wanted to wait for Zhou Yu to return to Jiangdong before resigning, and then go to Changsha to find a job, but he didn't expect that now it has become exchanged for a few truckloads of grain.
"Senior brother Gaocai, I am short of military advisors here, the teacher has a long history, and he is usually busy with official business, so he always detains you by his side and does not want to be an apprentice. Senior Brother Pang came just in time, why don't you be my regular military advisor, Governor Sha Military, what do you think, Senior Brother?" Pang Tong lowered his head and said in a very soft voice: "My subordinates obey orders." ”
"Oh, senior brother, you are my first full-fledged military division in Changsha, and the only military division, although most of the current military power in Changsha is in the hands of General Huang Lao, but after I take Xiangyang, I will send an envoy to Xu Du to face the saint, how can I ask for a bigger title than Taishou, when the time comes, I can add the word general after your military division!" Kou Yan said her plan in a very casual tone, hearing Xu Shu frown, Pang Tong was even more stunned: "You say, you want to take the initiative to ask the emperor for a title?" (To be continued.) )
