Pan County.

At the head of the city, Sima Yi and Shi Jingtang stood side by side, both looking in the direction of Wei Ying, their eyes were cold.

The morning light is getting brighter, the sun is rising in the east, and the golden glow of ten thousand roads shines from the sky, dyeing Panxian County with a layer of gold.

On the city wall, the "Han" flags have been lowered.

The sound of killing in the distance gradually became low, indicating that the fierce battle had come to an end.

"Mr. Zhongda, is it over?" Shi Jingtang breathed a sigh of relief, and his expression was a little relieved.

Sima Yi's eyes froze, he raised his hand and pointed ahead, and sneered: "It's not over yet, look there." ”

Shi Jingtang raised his eyes and stared, only to see that at the end of the avenue, dust and mist were billowing up, and it seemed that thousands of remnants of the defeated army were rushing towards Pan County.

In the chaos of the army, I faintly saw the "Han" character imperial flag, swaying from side to side.

The imperial flag is still there, indicating that Liu Bei is still alive.

Shi Jingtang's face immediately sank, his fist hit the city wall, and he said in a deep voice: "Why is his life so big, he hasn't died yet!" ”

"It's just a matter of breathing." Sima Yi snorted sarcastically, "Have you arranged all your people?" ”

"Of course, Mr. Zhongda, don't worry, the whole city is mine." Shi Jingtang looked confident.

Sima Yi nodded slightly, and snorted coldly: "Then let's wait and see what happens, and laugh at the wind and clouds." ”

As he spoke, the thousands of remnants of the defeated soldiers outside the city had rushed close in embarrassment, reaching the east gate of Pan County.

Liu Bei, who looked panicked, whipped his horsewhip desperately, and finally squeezed away the soldiers who were in the way, and rushed to the front of the moat.

It was only at this time that Liu Bei finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he had escaped from Ascension and had escaped again.

Albeit only temporarily.

"Shi Jingtang, Sima Yi, quickly open the city gate and let me enter the city!" Liu Bei took out the imperial style again and yelled at the city.

The soldiers at the head of the city all looked at Shi Jingtang, waiting for him to make a decision.

Shi Jingtang was indifferent, pretending not to hear, and looked down at Liu Bei who was in a hurry under the city so coldly.

As for Sima Yi, it was also a sarcastic gaze, looking down at Liu Bei, and his expression was like looking at a clown.

Seeing that there was no movement in the city, Liu Bei became angry, raised his voice and shouted: "Are you all blind, it's me, don't you open the city gate for me quickly!" ”

At the head of the city, Sima Yi and Shi Jingtang still looked at Liu Bei coldly and regarded Liu Bei as an air.

Liu Bei was angry and anxious, at a loss for a while, and looked at Zhuge Liang anxiously.

Zhuge Liang saw the clue, his heart was suddenly shocked, and he shouted urgently: "Shi Jingtang, are you blind, or do you want to rebel?" Can't you see that Your Majesty is here, why don't you open the city gate quickly! ”

Shi Jingtang's body moved slightly, knowing that he could no longer pretend to be deaf and dumb, so he pretended to ask Sima Yi, "Mr. Zhongda, have you seen Your Majesty?" Why didn't I see it? ”

Sima Yi said seriously: "General Shi, you must have read it wrong, we have received the news that Your Majesty failed to rob the camp and has been killed by the pottery thief, how can it still appear here, this must be that the pottery thief sent someone to pretend to be Your Majesty, and wants to deceive the city gate, we must not be fooled." ”

When Shi Jingtang heard this, he suddenly became furious, pointed at Liu Bei under the city, and scolded: "Okay, you traitor, you dare to pretend to be the son of heaven of my family, why don't you go back and tell the pottery thief that I, Shi Jingtang, will avenge Your Majesty one day sooner or later!" ”

Liu Bei was stunned!

At the head of the city, Sima Yi and Shi Jingtang's dialogue completely confused him, and he was speechless for a while.

"Shi Jingtang, do you have all eyes on the top of your heads, I'm standing here, I'm not dead yet, what nonsense are you talking about!" Liu Bei was obviously still in the dark, yelling at them in anger.

Shi Jingtang was also furious, drew his sword in his hand, pointed at Liu Bei under the city and shouted angrily: "Traitor, the general has already seen through your tricks, and he even dares to act here shamelessly, you are looking for death!" ”

In the midst of the scolding, Shi Jingtang openly ordered that the crossbowmen were ready to shoot the "fake Liu Bei" under the city with arrows, as well as a fake Han army.

"Shi Jingtang, are you crazy! It's me, it's me! Liu Bei was furious to the point of resting.

The feather fan in Zhuge Liang's hand suddenly fell out of his hand, and his face swelled with endless grief and indignation, and he said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, this surnamed Shi is not crazy, he is deliberately pretending to be stupid, because he has betrayed His Majesty a long time ago." ”

Treachery!

Liu Bei's figure was suddenly shocked, and he hurriedly raised his head to look at the city again, looking at the resolute and ruthless Shi Jingtang, looking at the city wall where the "Han" banner was empty, thinking of Shi Jingtang's various "pretending to be crazy and stupid", and suddenly realized.

Shi Jingtang really betrayed him.

The so-called "loyal minister" who betrayed An Lushan in the Anshi Rebellion and helped him recover Yanjing, the one who was given great trust by him, was appointed as a general who stayed in Pan County when he poured out.

Unexpectedly, when he was at his most depressed, he chose to turn his back on him!

Liu Bei was so angry that his lungs were about to blow up, and he scolded at the city head with grief and indignation: "Good you Shi Jingtang, I treat you well, I trust you so much, how dare you betray me!" ”

Shi Jingtang didn't feel a trace of guilt, he didn't even bother to scold back, raised the sword in his hand, and scolded the crossbowman for bending the bow and arrows.

Liu Bei was helpless, his eyes turned sharply to Sima Yi, holding on to the last glimmer of hope, and almost said in a crying voice: "Sima Zhongda, are you also in the same boat with this beast, and you have betrayed me?" You are one of my most trusted advisors, have you forgotten all these years of my kindness to you? ”

"Kindness, hum ......" The corners of Sima Yi's mouth hooked up with a sarcastic sneer, as if he was listening to a childish joke.

Subsequently, Sima Yi said loudly to Shi Jingtang: "General Shi, now that Your Majesty has been victimized by pottery thieves, we can only return to Yelu Dadanyu and use the hand of Xianbei Iron Cavalry to avenge Your Majesty, what do you think?" ”

Sima Yi deliberately raised his voice, and these words were obviously intended to be said to Liu Bei, just to make Liu Bei be stimulated and have a mental breakdown.

Liu Bei was really about to collapse, and Sima Yi's words were like a heavy hammer, mercilessly smashing Liu Bei's remaining thoughts.

At that moment, his heart clicked and shattered to the ground.

That's Sima Yi, in the Han Kingdom, he is second only to Zhuge Liang, the most trusted advisor, for so many years, it can be said that he has obeyed his words.

Even, this strategy of uniting Yelu Abaoji to fight against the pottery merchants, and even last night's strategy of using the whole army to attack the Wei camp at night was also offered by Sima Yi, and he adopted it without doubt.

At this time, the truth was revealed, and Liu Bei suddenly woke up, it turned out that Sima Yi had already secretly taken refuge in Yelu Abaoji, helped Chief Hu deceive him of so much territory, and even tricked him into doing his best to attack the Wei camp at night, but he fell into the murder plan with a knife and fell to the miserable point of annihilation of the whole army.

"Sima Yi, I am so good to you, I trust you so much, why do you want to betray me, why?" Liu Bei was so sad and angry that he was unwilling to accept this cruel truth.

Sima Yi's heart was as cold as iron, and he did not waver in the slightest, but said to Shi Jingtang: "General Shi, the traitor outside the city is still pretending to be Your Majesty, if you don't take action and continue to connive, I'm afraid it will shake the hearts of the army." ”

Shi Jingtang understood, and immediately raised his sword and shouted: "The crossbowman listens to the order and is ready to shoot the traitor!" ”

The order was handed down, and along the front line of the city, the 1,000 crossbowmen who were loyal to Shi Jingtang immediately raised their bows and crossbows, ready to shoot Liu Bei and the thousands of remnants of the defeated soldiers under the city.

"Sima Yi, Shi Jingtang, you two ungrateful beasts, you, you—" Liu Bei was shocked and angry, and was at a loss for a moment.

Zhuge Liang's face changed in shock, and he said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, the betrayal of these two traitors is a foregone conclusion, it is dangerous here, let's break through from elsewhere." ”

As he spoke, Zhuge Liang grabbed the stiff rope of Liu Bei's war horse, and dragged Liu Bei to the north without saying anything.

Huang Zhong, Zhang Liao and other remnants of the Han army were defeated, although they were also extremely angry, but they had no choice but to follow Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang to scatter and flee to the north.

In a moment, there was not one left of the thousands of remnants of the defeated army.

Shi Jingtang and Sima Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and the two looked at each other, and then they smiled.

Sima Yi said with a smile: "The next thing will be handed over to the pottery thief, what General Shi has to do now is to show Da Shan Yu our heart of submission." ”

"I understand." Shi Jingtang nodded, and hurriedly shouted: "Come on, raise the Xianbei Wolf Flag." ”

The order was handed down, and in the sky above the city tower, a Xianbei battle flag reflecting the wolf's head slowly rose and flew over Pan County.

Looking at Liu Bei, who fled in embarrassment, the corners of Sima Yi's mouth raised a sneer, and he muttered: "Liu Bei, Liu Bei, they all say that you have the ability to recognize people, but unfortunately you have never understood me Sima Yi, everyone in my eyes is just a pawn for me to take revenge on the pottery merchant, and you are no exception......"

East of Pan County.

A bigger wave of wild dust covered the sky, it was the army of 100,000 Wei State, which was coming towards this side to kill wildly.

A golden light and shadow, like the scorching sun falling from the sky, rushed and flowed before the hosts.

It was the figure of the Emperor of Great Wei, like a god, leading his soldiers, chasing after the defeated enemy army.

Ahead, Pan County had already appeared in front of him, and thousands of remnants of the Han army were gathering in front of the city, as if they were preparing to flee into the city.

"We are still one step slower, we want to let the big-eared thief escape into Panxian City, it seems that we can only kill the big-eared thief by besieging the city with a large army." Li Cunxiao, who was beside him, frowned and said.

The potter eagle looked into the distance, glanced towards the line along the city, a meaningful sneer rose at the corner of his mouth, and he waved his knife and shouted: "Order the whole army, change the route, and intercept the big-eared thief to the north of Pan County." ”

When the order was passed, the Great Wei frenzy, which had originally flocked to the east gate of Pan County, immediately changed its direction and killed diagonally to the north.

"Your Majesty, the big-eared thief is going to flee to Pan County, we should besiege the city, why are we pursuing it to the north?" Li Cunxiao asked puzzled.

The potter pointed to Pan County and sneered: "The big banner of the word 'stone' at the head of the city told me that the enemy general defending the city was Shi Jingtang, this person is a capricious person, and the flag of the word 'Han' on the head of the city has been lowered. ”

Hearing the potter's speculation, Li Cunxiao was skeptical, obviously not convinced of the potter's insight.

Just when he was suspicious, he suddenly saw the head of Panxian County, and the wolf head flag symbolizing Xianbei was raised.

Immediately afterwards, Liu Bei and his thousands of remnants did not enter the city, and miraculously fled to the north as the potter speculated.

In this situation, Li Cunxiao was shocked, and his amazed eyes looked at the potter, and said: "Your Majesty is like a god, and he is really a god!" ”

The potter sneered, the murderous intent in his eyes burned like fire, and he said proudly: "The big-eared thief has betrayed his relatives, this is the day to kill him, so you will follow me and completely wipe out the big-eared thief from this world!" ”
