Chapter 9: Illusions

"This!"

At the head of the city, Lu Chang and the others were really unbelievable when they saw this, what is the situation?

At this time, Guan Ping and Pang De were sitting opposite each other, eating frantically with laughter and laughter, and they didn't regard this place as a battlefield at all.

Seeing this, Li Ji was short-tempered, and suddenly shouted angrily: "Okay, this little boy Pang De has actually surrendered to Guan Ping's little thief." ”

"Originally, it was rumored in the Jingzhou camp that he would rather die than surrender, and I still respected him as a hero, but I didn't expect that knowing people and faces but not knowing their hearts, he also seemed to be forbidden to such people who were greedy for life and afraid of death!"

Hearing this, he was relatively calm and muttered: "No, my father once got along with General Pang, and he said that General Ling Ming is also a loyal and heroic man." ”

"It stands to reason that if General Pang is really this kind of person, with my father's temperament, he will not have fellowship with him."

"Guan Ping is scheming, I'm afraid there is something strange about this matter, don't jump to conclusions!"

Le Qi thought slowly and put forward his own opinion.

"Huh!" Li Ji sneered and said, "Really? Look at the armor that Pound is wearing, but it's from our army? ”

When the words fell, everyone in the city looked at them, and after a while, the garrison sergeant couldn't help but gasp, and then began to talk.

"General Pang, you are actually wearing the armor of the Jingzhou Army?"

"Pang De is a traitor, and he has betrayed the King of Wei?"

Looking at each other coldly for a moment, Li Ji sneered: "Le Qi boy, now that Pound De has surrendered, the evidence is conclusive, what else do you have to say?" ”

"I ............"

Before the words fell, Li Ji suddenly faced Lu Chang and arched his hand: "Lu Junshou, please allow the last general to lead an army out of the city and capture and kill the traitor Pang De." ”

Hearing this, Lu Chang shouted angrily: "Stand down, fight in words, slash!" ”

After Li Ji retreated angrily, Lu Chang's face softened slightly, and explained: "Ji'er, you have to use your brain in everything, don't rush and kill at every turn, now you also know that Pang De surrendered to the Jingzhou army." ”

"Then do you still have a chance of winning when you go out of the city to fight? Even if Pang De's brave martial arts are compared with the Tiger Marquis who guards the King of Wei, he is not too reckless, and he is still at peace from the side. ”

"Although we haven't seen Guan Ping show his strength, but since he is Guan Yunchang's most valued eldest son, Wu Yong must not be weak, you are fighting at this moment, do you have a chance of winning?"

After a pause, Lu Chang persuaded bitterly: "Ji'er, you should also learn from Le Qixian's nephew in this regard, Le Qixian's nephew is steady and capable. ”

"County Guard, stop talking!"

Seeing that Li Ji was faintly impatient, Le Qi couldn't help but walk up to Lu Chang again and whispered in his ear.

"County guard, don't worry, if I am a general in the future, I will definitely take care of Brother Li Ji."

At this moment, Le Qi was beside Lu Chang and said softly.

"Alas!"

With a thick sigh, Lu Chang looked at the city, his eyes were facing Guan Ping and Pang De's eating place, he was in a state of confusion at the moment, and he didn't know whether Pang De's surrender was true or false.

After all, Le Qi was right, after Pang De surrendered to Cao Wei, he established a good friendship with Cao Ying's generals, and everyone greatly appreciated his loyal character.

At this moment, there are always signs that Pound has surrendered, but Lu Chang does not believe it, or does not want to believe it.

"Could it be that this is another trick by the Guan Ping boy?" After thinking for a while, Lu Chang wondered again: "However, what is his purpose in creating the illusion of Pound's surrender?" ”

"Or is Pang De really submissive to the Jingzhou army?"

Now, all kinds of doubts poured into Lu Chang's mind, giving him a headache!

Under the city

As for this time, Pound was still drinking and eating, so unhappy, that he did not notice it at all, and the sergeants in the city already hated him very much.

After a while, Guan Ping held the wine bottle and laughed: "Come, General Pang, the boy Guan Ping respects you, and it can be regarded as making amends for the time that you were detained!" ”

After that, Guan Ping didn't hesitate and drank it all!

Seeing this, Pound was also a little drunk at this moment, and he didn't realize it, so he also raised the wine bottle and finished drinking.

At this moment, the smile in Guan Ping's eyes became thicker and thicker, and he quietly turned his head to glance at the city, and then showed a hearty laugh.

"Pound, Pound, it seems that even if I let you go now, you won't be able to go back to Cao Ying."

"Now, you have only two paths, either submit to our army, or die to clear your will!"

At this time, Guan Ping's thoughts were tumbling, and he groaned secretly.

For a long time, Guan Ping held the wine bottle in his hand, looked at Pang De, and after a while, he couldn't help asking: "General Pang, in fact, Ping has something unclear, and I hope to solve my doubts!" ”

"Hiccup!"

At this moment, Pound couldn't help but burp, and he was also slightly drunk, and said, "What's the matter?" ”

"General Pang, since he is a loyal and righteous person, he has followed Ma Teng Ma Chao's father and son for more than 20 years, but after the battle of Hanzhong, why don't you continue to go south and return to the old master, but choose to take refuge in Cao Thief in situ?"

"You must know, if you had gone south to find General Ma Chao, I am afraid that you would have been a defender now, not a prisoner under the current ranks."

In an instant, Pang De's face changed suddenly, and he said coldly: "Hmph, Ma Chao? He also deserves me Pound to follow him in life and death? ”

"I think I was brave and brave, and I followed his father since I was a teenager, and Ma Teng was very important to me, and often treated him as my own family, and I am very grateful to him."

"But after he led the whole family into Xu Du as an official, Ma Chao actually teamed up with Han Sui and other Xiliang rebels, regardless of his father's safety, and raised an army to cause chaos, resulting in the murder of the whole family!"

"Such a disloyal and unrighteous person, how can He De be worthy of my Pound to live and die?"

Speaking of the depths of love, Pang De couldn't help but raise his head and pour a sip of wine, and said: "Besides, Ma Chao was defeated by King Wei and fled during the rebellion, during which I also tried my best to protect him and never give up, which can be regarded as repaying his father's kindness." ”

"Until Hanzhong, he resolutely defected to Liu Xuande, ignoring us and others, such a disciple, how could I continue to follow?"

"Hmph, why am I telling you this?"

Halfway through speaking, Pound seemed to be halfway awake and realized something, so he coldly bowed his head and drank, not speaking.

After a long groan, Guan Ping said tentatively: "So, just because Ma Chao is in a high position among my big men, you would rather die than surrender, and insist on being foolish and loyal to Cao Thief?" ”

Hearing this, Pang De sneered and said: "Guan Ping, don't talk about the clan with these words, I, Pang Lingming, am not a fool, I know very well that I have the ability to have a few catties and a few taels!" ”

"If you want me to charge into battle and attack the city, I Pang De thinks that I am no worse than anyone else, but if I want to be in charge and command an army, I am indeed inferior to Cao Ren, Zhang Liao, Yu Ban and other generals."

"I'm saying that since I'm a general, the generals of Cao Ying haven't discriminated against me, and the King of Wei still entrusts me with important tasks, which is enough."

"It seems that the generals of Cao Ying, all of them are veterans who have followed King Wei for decades, they have made great achievements, what can they be considered above me?"

At first, Guan Ping used these words to induce Pound, and he really couldn't refute it at that time, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that this was completely deceiving himself.

Seeing that Pang De gradually woke up and refuted himself, Guan Ping couldn't help but play with the wine bottle in his palm and play with the taste: "So, General Pang is stubborn and unwilling to submit to my big man, right?" ”

"Hmph, it's impossible!"

At this time, Pound's face showed a strong face and cut the railway.

When the words fell, Guan Ping suddenly got up, glanced at the city, and laughed loudly: "Haha, General Pang, you and I have a very bad conversation today, and we will continue another day." ”

"Come on, let's go back and discuss how to capture Xiangyang together."

Immediately, Guan Ping put one hand on Pang De's shoulders, turned around and walked towards the formation together!

It's just that although the two of them left, the scene just now fell into the eyes of the soldiers in the city.

What's more important is that when he was leaving, Guan Ping deliberately let go of his voice, and he also vaguely heard these words in the city, looking at the intimacy of the two leaving.

Li Ji was furious and shouted: "Look, how can Pang De's surrender be fake, this is all discussing how to take my Xiangyang as a gift for surrendering." ”

"Oops! The county guard, Xiangyang is in danger! ”

Only when Li Ji was angry, Le Qi on the side seemed to think of something, and suddenly screamed.
