Pang Tong sat in the right seat of the tent, and Zang Ba and Sun Guan sat on either side of him.

Xin Bi walked into the tent and saluted Pang Tong, Zang Ba, and Sun Guan respectively: "I have seen General Pang, General Zang and General Sun." ”

"Gong Xin is not with Yuan Xiansi, how can he have the leisure to come to us?" Pang Tong returned the salute, pretending not to know what Xin Bi meant and asked.

"General Pang asked, did he not get General Lu's order?" Simbi asked Pang Tong.

"Orders? What command? Pang asked with a surprised face.

"My lord sent a military order, saying that he and the Marquis of Chu have reached a consensus, and the two families will crusade against Cao Cao together." Simbi asked, "Could it be that General Pang really didn't get this order?" ”

"I really haven't gotten it." Pang Tong pretended to be stunned and asked Xin Bi, "Xin Gong won't be here for me, right?" ”

"This kind of thing, how could I deceive General Pang." There was no pretentious meaning on Pang Tong's face, and Xin Bi said with some surprise: "Could it be that Chu Hou's order was sent here late?" ”

"Maybe there is such a thing, but I didn't get an order from the Marquis of Chu, so I must not retreat." Pang Tong said: "In case Xin Gong designed to deceive us, I can't afford to take responsibility for the defeat of the army." ”

"General Pang thinks it will take a few days, and the Marquis of Chu orders can arrive?" Simbi asked.

In fact, Lu Bu's order had already arrived, and Pang Tong was just trying to kill Xin Bi's sharp qi and make him decline in momentum, so that he could further negotiate with him on terms.

If Pang Tong, Zang Ba, and Sun Guan were a little uncalm, they were likely to be seen by Xin Bi as wrong and missing.

However, the servants pretended to be very calm, and did not show any flaws, which really made Xin Bi a little overwhelmed.

Looking at Pang Tong in astonishment, Xin Bi then looked at Zang Ba and Sun Guan.

Still no flaw was seen in their faces, and Simbi said, "Or ...... I'll come back in two days......."

"It's fine." Pang Tong said: "If Xin Gong has no leisure, I can send someone over then." ”

"General Pang." Xin Bi was about to agree, but Zang Ba said: "It's better to ask Xin Gong to stay in our military camp for the time being, and when Chu Hou's order is issued, you can directly invite him to come and discuss, wouldn't it be better?" ”

Zang Ba proposed to leave Xin Bi behind, Pang Tong nodded, and asked Xin Bi, "What are Xin Gong's plans?" ”

Xin Bi was taken aback and asked Pang Tong, "What does Pang Gong mean by this?" ”

"What can I mean?" Pang Tong smiled slightly, and said to Xin Bi: "It's just that I want to ask Xin Gong to stay here, once the order of the Marquis of Chu is issued, we can also have a discussion." ”

"I think it's safer to go back to the barracks first, and when the order of the Marquis of Chu comes, General Pang will send someone to summon me." Simbi said, "Wait until then......"

As he was talking, a guard's voice came from outside the tent: "General Qi Pang, the Marquis of Chu sent someone to send a military order!" ”

Of course, the guards outside the tent were arranged in advance by Pang Tong.

Hearing the guard's words, Pang Tong said to Xin Bi: "It seems that Xin Gong doesn't have to worry about the Chu Hou's order not coming, if we really mention the dismissal with the Yuan family, we have a lot of things to discuss." ”

"That's what I came here for." Simbi breathed a sigh of relief.

From his expression, Pang Tong could see that his focus had shifted from whether he could persuade Pang Tong to withdraw from the army and get more benefits, to worrying about his own safety.

That's exactly what Pang Tong wants.

He shouted outside the tent, "Send the order of the Marquis of Chu in." ”

The guard lifted the curtain and came to Pang Tong with a letter in both hands.

Pang Tong took the letter, unfolded it and read it, handed it to Zang Ba on the side, and said to Xin Bi: "What Xin Gong said is really right, we were hostile in the past, and after today, I am afraid that we will become an alliance!" ”

"The eldest son asked me to come over to discuss the withdrawal of troops with General Pang." Xin Bi said: "The eldest prince thinks that since the two families have agreed to strike the army, General Pang should immediately withdraw from Mount Tai and return to Xuzhou. ”

"Withdraw from Mount Tai and return to Xuzhou?" Pang Tong smiled and asked, "How could Gong Xin say such a thing?" You must know that Mount Tai has always been subordinate to the Marquis of Chu. Earlier, Yuan Xiansi sent troops to Mount Tai, and only then did he have today's battle. Now that the two sides have withdrawn, why do you want us to withdraw? ”

"Mount Tai originally belonged to Qingzhou." Xin Bi said: "The Marquis of Chu has Mount Tai, and he is not very careful about the governance here. Compared with Xuzhou and Yangzhou, the people of Mount Tai are very hard. The eldest son believes that only by handing over Mount Tai to our Yuan family can the people here have a stable life and become richer day by day......"

"Whether the people are rich or not, what does it have to do with our withdrawal from Mount Tai?" Pang Tong interrupted him: "I really don't understand what Gong Xin said, if the two families want to strike the army, of course they have to show some sincerity. ”

Originally, he never thought that he could get the entire Mount Tai in his hands, Xin Bi's purpose was only to keep the existing few cities, and then prompt the Xuzhou army to withdraw from Qingzhou, and his task was to complete.

Pang Tong proposed sincerity, and Xin Bi asked: "Dare to ask General Pang, what kind of sincerity do you want us to show?" ”

"It's simple." Pang Tong said: "Mount Tai is ours, this is undoubted, and now we have to consider the city in Qingzhou." General Chen Shuzhi led his soldiers and horses to capture the city of Qingzhou continuously, and General Zang and General Sun had also trained their soldiers and horses there earlier. It stands to reason that those cities in Qingzhou also belong to the Marquis of Chu. Why don't you ask Yuan Xiansi to withdraw from those cities, and we will stop our troops and fight against Cao Cao together in the future, how about it? ”

Pang Tong not only did not plan to give up Taishan's territory, but also said that he would leave the city of Qingzhou that was broken by Chen Zhi, Xin Bi suddenly frowned: "I think it should be General Pang who is really insincere, not me." ”

"How could I be insincere?" Pang Tongyi said with an innocent face: "Gong Xin came to see me first, at first I didn't get an order to stop talking, and when I got the order of the Marquis of Chu, I immediately discussed with Gong Xin how to strike the army." Why do you say I'm insincere now? If Xin Gong said so, it is difficult to say whether I see whether the peace talks can continue. ”

"Could it be that General Pang wants the Marquis of Chu and my lord to have an alliance, but we continue to fight in Mount Tai?" Xin Bi's face turned cold, and he asked Pang Tong.

"I don't mean that, Xin Gong should understand better than me." Pang Tong said: "Mount Tai originally belonged to our Xuzhou, and Xin Gong was going to cross them as soon as he opened his mouth." If we are already defeated, I will admit it whatever you want. But the problem is that we have not been defeated at all, and when Xin Gong came here, he asked us to give up Mount Tai. No matter where it is said, this truth does not make sense. ”

"But it is absolutely impossible for General Pang to ask us to carve out the cities in Qingzhou." Xin Bi said: "We don't want the whole Mount Tai, and ask General Pang to order Chen Shuzhi to lead the troops back, as for the city that our army has broken in Mount Tai, of course, it is safe to stay in the hands of our army." ”

"Gong Xin feels safe, but I feel ashamed." Pang Tong sneered, and he asked Xin Bi: "Dare to ask Xin Gong, did you get more cities in Mount Tai, or did we get more in Qingzhou?" ”

In terms of the number of broken cities, of course, the Xuzhou army captured more in Qingzhou.

Xin Bi was asked by Pang Tong and didn't know how to respond.

Pang Tong sneered twice and said to Xin Bi: "Xin Gong, since you have not captured as many cities as us, why should we give up all the cities and hand over the cities that originally belonged to us to you?" ”

"If you don't even agree to this request, maybe this alliance will be ruined in Mount Tai." Xin Bi said with a threat in his words: "I have put forward our bottom line, if General Pang still does not agree, I don't know what to say." ”

"Then don't say anything more." Pang Tong stood up abruptly and said to Xin Bi: "The so-called generals are outside, and the military orders are not subject to them. Although the Marquis of Chu gave the order, we had no interest in continuing the humiliating peace talks. It's better to do this, please Yuan Xiansi set up his troops and horses, and we will fight a few more times. In the end, it is up to whoever can take more cities from the other side and how they will be distributed in the end. ”

Since Yuan Tan led the soldiers and horses to Mount Tai, the two sides have fought several times, but Yuan Jun has never really taken advantage of it.

In fact, they suffered a lot in the specific war.

Especially in the battle for the city between the two sides, the Baiwei army led by Chen Zhi entered Qingzhou, attacked the city all the way, and captured many cities from the Yuan army.

Although the two sides have won and lost each other, they can be carefully calculated, and it is the Xuzhou army that really takes advantage.

If he continues to fight, maybe Yuan Jun will suffer more losses.

"According to General Pang, what should we do?" There was no hint of concession on Pang Tong's face, and Xin Bi's attitude finally softened.

"If Yuan Xiansi is really sincere, then one city will be replaced by another. You give us back the cities you have captured in Tarzan, and we will return to you the corresponding number of cities. Pang Tong said: "This is the most appropriate and fair." ”

"How is that possible!" Originally, I wanted to get some benefits from Pang Tong, but I didn't expect to be killed by Pang Tong, Xin Bi was stunned, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "This method, our eldest son will never agree." ”

"Then you say, what should I do for him to agree?" Pang Tong's brows furrowed tightly, and his eyes were a little more cold.

Xin Bi replied: "The worst thing is that we will return the city of Mount Tai, and you will return the city of Qingzhou to us." ”

Pang Tong smiled, the expression on his face became extremely rich, and he said to Xin Bi: "How many cities do we occupy?" How many cities have you occupied? If we want to hand over all the cities to exchange with you, this method is also a loss to Xin Gong who dares to say it! ”

"This is our last concession, if General Pang doesn't agree......"

"But it is absolutely impossible for General Pang to ask us to carve out the cities in Qingzhou." Xin Bi said: "We don't want the whole Mount Tai, and ask General Pang to order Chen Shuzhi to lead the troops back, as for the city that our army has broken in Mount Tai, of course, it is safe to stay in the hands of our army." ”
