Pang Tong returned to the village. Lu Bu and the others killed heartily, smiling all the way, and when they came to the tent, Lu Su arched his hand and said: "How can a huge person know how to break the demon technique with black dog blood?" "Pang Tong is well-versed in ancient books, and his exposition skills can be broken by filthy things such as black dog blood. How could he not know. Seeing Lu Su asking, he replied: "There was a master who pointed out that this black dog's blood can break all demonic arts, so I'll try it." ”

Jia Xu also arched his hand and said: "The adult is erudite and talented, and he is really a model of my generation." ”

One person entered the account and said, "My lord has finally returned, and there is a document to report." Pang Tong took the document and looked at it, and said to everyone: "There is a big matter." Yuan Shu held the jade seal of the country and called the emperor, and built the capital Shouchun. At the same time, Sun Ce borrowed 20,000 troops from Yuan Shu and killed them in Qu'a County, wanting to seize Yan Baihu's Wu County. ”

Lu Bu said with a smile: "This person has no plan, and only 20,000 people dare to invade Yangzhou?" ”

Lu Su said: "Sun Jian has a lot of strategists and fierce generals, if there are capable people who can defeat ten thousand troops, they should not be underestimated." ”

Jia Xu smiled and sighed: "Sun Jian's occupation of Changsha is still a bit prestigious, if it is his son, he will not be able to break into the hall." ”

Pang Tong hurriedly shook his hand and smiled: "Don't despise this person. How did Yuan Shu get the jade seal of the country? It was rumored before that Liu Biao robbed Sun Jianjun for the sake of the jade seal. It can be seen that in order to restore his father's business, Sun Ce did not hesitate to take the jade seal to Yuan Shu to exchange for military horses, and this person's mind can tolerate the sea. Yan Rou smiled with satisfaction, and his heart was excited, and he thought, "In this way, it is time for the famous wise general to act." Zhou Lang, we will meet one day. ”

Pang Tong did not attack the city immediately, but sent Lu Su and a dozen horsemen to Xindu County, Julu County, Jizhou. Xindu City is Yuan Shaozhi's place, and Lusu has a great task. After running for several days, Lu Su and the others came to Yuan Shao's mansion and led them into the hall. Yuan Shao knew that Pang Tong had sent an envoy to call civil and military officials to be lined up on both sides.

When Lu Su entered the mansion, he saw a forest of banners, heavily guarded soldiers, and each armed with a gun halberd. When I entered the lobby, I saw that the civil and military officials on both sides were waiting for me. Lu Su was not afraid, came to the hall, and said to Yuan Shao in the hall: "I am Pang Tong's subordinate to Lu Su, and I have seen Yuan Zhoumu. ”

Yuan Shao said: "What is the matter from afar? ”

Lu Su said: "At present, our army is facing Zhang Yang of Bingzhou, and I hope that Lord Yuan can share the land of Bingzhou, and the Pang and Yuan families will be divided in half." We have to go to Dang County, Taiyuan County, Xihe County, Wuyuan County, and you have to Yanmen County, Dingxiang County, and Yunzhong County. ”

Yuan Shao walked out of the column on the left side, and arched his hand: "In the next trial, I don't know if what Brother Lu said is true?" As far as I know, you can get three-fifths of the county, and we get two, how can you call it half? ”

Lu Su chuckled, "Why is it so serious. After all, our army moved first, and now we invite you to eat it, why not? If you don't move now, how can you wait for Gongsun Zhan to drive the tiger to the west and gain the territory? ”

Another person came out and said, "I am Lord Yuan's advisor Tian Feng, please ask for advice." Why did Gongsun Zhan have to seize the land of annexing the state, and why could your army crush Zhang Yang? So confident that you invite me to wait and eat? ”

Lu Su said indifferently: "At present, the rivalry between Gongsun Chan and Lord Yuan is well known, if Gongsun Chan wins the land of annexation and befriends us, what kind of situation will you be in?" If Lord Yuan is unwilling, he will take his leave. ”

After waving his sleeves and leaving, Yuan Shao hurriedly stopped him and said, "Why be so anxious!" ”

Lu Su turned around and said, "My family is so sincere, you are too suspicious, how can you talk about this matter." ”

Yuan Shao ordered him to sit aside and said, "Just talk about it." ”

Lu Su said: "At present, our side has captured Jinyang County, and Lord Yuan can lead the troops to attack Yanmen County, and the troops on both sides must be in a hurry." Adults can attack quickly and capture the city before Gongsun Chan notices or makes a plan. As long as Yanmen County is taken and stabilized, Dingxiang County and Yunzhong County will be at your fingertips. ”

Yuan Shao nodded and said, "What do you think of that Yang leading the troops?" ”

Lu Su chuckled and said: "Its military formation is strict, but it does things by unscrupulous means. It won't be the climate in the end. ”

After chatting a few words, Lu Su left. Yuan Shao finally agreed, of course, to share the food and merge the state. However, when Lu Su left, the strategist Tian Feng said: "Pang Shiyuan is a young man, and he has the ambition to annex the state when he emerges, and he is allied with Cao Cao, so we must deal with it carefully." ”

The judge sneered: "Brother Tian doesn't know that careerists don't distinguish between you and me, high and low, as long as they can be used conveniently." He can ally with Cao Cao now, and he can ally with us in the future. This time, if the state is divided and merged, the two territories will be next to each other. If he doesn't want to make trouble, he will definitely take the initiative to pick out the alliance, and then attack Yongzhou in the west, which is a policy that people are worried about. ”

Tian Feng frowned and said, "Everything is unpredictable, is Brother Juan too confident?" If he, Cao Cao, and Gongsun Zhan encircle our army together, and become a corner, we will be in danger! ”

Yuan Shao was stunned when he heard this, and said, "If that's the case, we are the turtles in the urn." ”

Seeing that the two were arguing, the strategist Xu Yu hurriedly said, "Why worry too much. At present, it is the best policy to merge the state, and if the far-sighted person has too many distracting thoughts, it will be counted as a thousand steps, and a thousand steps will be wrong. ”

The judge frowned and was silent, and Yuan Shao nodded when he heard this.

Lu Su returned to Pangtong Dazhai and told Yuan Shao about it. Pang Tong said: "Although the judges, Tian Feng and other strategists have strategies, they quarrel with each other. And Yuan Shao is too thoughtful and less scheming, and he is easy to be swayed by others, this is a big plan, and this person cannot be compared with Cao Cao. ”

Lu Su said suddenly: "Why don't the huge people see the situation, just from my words, the situation can be cut into such a profound section?" ”

Jia Xu smiled and said, "I don't think that Cao Cao can be compared with a huge person." ”

Pang Tong immediately said solemnly: "Don't talk nonsense, Cao Mengde is a real hero, a great enemy!" ”

Lu Bu also stood on one side, puzzled when he heard this, and said, "But we have already formed an alliance with Cao Cao, how can we now consider it a great enemy?" ”

Pang Tong smiled and continued: "In this way, that Zhang Yang's fate should be like this." I didn't dare to attack for days, and I had no direction in myself. I gave him half a month to see what happened to him. ”

A few days later, someone visited. Pang Tong ordered someone to summon him into the tent, and when he saw that it was Cheng Xu, Liu Yu's adviser in Youzhou, Pang Tong hurriedly got up to greet him, and said in surprise: "Why is Lord Cheng here?" ”

After Cheng Xu saw Pang Tong, he nodded peacefully, held his hand and said, "Shi Yuan will really get ahead, I was not wrong that day." Hey, after Lord Liu died, I went back to the countryside. I heard that you took Sizhou and came to attack Bingzhou, so I hurried to find it. Hope it works for you. ”

Pang Tong was overjoyed, busy sitting, and ordered someone to bring good wine and food. Cheng Xu said: "I recommend one person, Chen Gong, the original strategist of Cao Cao's side, Zigongtai, who resigned because he was dissatisfied with Cao Cao. Now wait outside the wall. ”

Pang Tong said loudly: "How can you be so lazy. Immediately greeted Cheng Xu to the gate of the village, only to see a person dressed in gray, about forty years old. Pang Tong hurriedly arched his hand and said: "In the lower Pang Tong, there is a long way to go!" ”

Chen Gong said: "I am a grass citizen, my lord is really polite." ”

At noon, the three of them talked about wine in the Pang Tong tent.

Pang Tong raised his glass to the two of them, and said: "Cao Mengde is also a capable and righteous man, why did you abandon him and leave?" ”

Chen Gong explained: "Cao Cao summoned his people to return to Chenliu to live in order to avoid the war. Master Mutao of Xuzhou was kind-hearted and benevolent, and wanted to be friendly with Cao Cao, so he ordered his subordinates to send Cao Cao's people to Chenliu County. Unexpectedly, he encountered a thief halfway through, and all Cao Cao's relatives were killed, and only one of Master Tao's men ran back to report the situation. After Cao Cao found out, he decided that it was Master Tao who did it, and he wanted him to look good. I was an old friend of Master Tao, so I received his letter to know the truth, and explained to Cao Cao three times, but he just didn't listen. In the end, he waved his army to attack Xuzhou, at which time Xuzhou was already in flames, and the people were miserable. How could I not abandon him and leave, after arriving in Youzhou, I met my old friend Brother Cheng, and they all thought that the huge man had the ability to save the people, so he came to vote for him. ”

Pang Tong smiled bitterly: "Why is this so, Tao Qian is indeed a good character." In fact, what he smiled wryly at was the consistency of history, although it is not the same plot, but the main line is exactly the same.

Chen Gong sighed: "Lord Tao's benevolence is well known. ”

Pang Tong suddenly remembered something and said, "Cao Cao shouldn't be so smooth, Tao Qian should have warriors under him." ”

Chen Gong nodded and said: "Liu Xuande is a member of the Han family, this person has few soldiers but is fine, and he should be able to help for a while." ”

Cheng Xu raised his glass and interrupted: "A cup of Jing Shiyuan, I wish you to win and merge the state as soon as possible." ”

After drinking it all, Pang Tong said: "I can only get half of it." ”

Cheng Xu and Chen Gong asked at the same time: "Why?" ”

Pang Tong told the matter of the alliance with Yuan Shao. Cheng Xu knocked on the table and said: "Zhang Yang will die, but Yuan Shao is cheaper, this person's desire is comparable to Dong Zhuo, and he is extremely ambitious for the throne." ”

Pang Tong put down the dish and said: "It is Yuan Shu who is called the emperor, why did you mention Yuan Shao, this person has the most heart for Hebei." ”

Chen Gong explained: "Huge people should look at the overall situation. Yuan Shu is a child. Why do you claim to be the emperor when you occupy one or two pieces of land? Yuan Shao IV and the third duke, after capturing Jizhou, will inevitably go north. If he can take the land of Hebei, he can go south to watch the whole country, and the tiger and wolf will go south, and the situation will be unstoppable. If he has reached this point, he must be the enemy of Gongsun Zan and Cao Cao. ”

Cheng Xu was surprised and said: "Why does Gongtai say that it is Gongsun Zan and Cao Cao, why don't you include Qingzhou Gong Jing and Xuzhou Tao Qian?" ”

Chen Gong looked ahead, but instead of looking at Pang Tong, he fell into endless reverie. He said indifferently as if he had witnessed the truth: "Gongsun Zan is a vicious wolf, Cao Cao can be described as a tiger and leopard, Gong Jing and Tao Qian are like children compared to them, and they will not last long." ”

Pang Tong grinned in surprise and said: "My lord is really expected...... he wanted to say that he was like a god, but after thinking about it, he couldn't judge it like this, he should respond with an attitude of not knowing the original history. Then he answered: "It's really planned, step by step, stay and see the pace of Yuan Shao and others, you will know whether what the adults said is accurate." ”

The three chatted again, Pang Tong was very happy in his heart, and Chen Gong's plan could be compared with Lu Su and Jia Xu.
