Chapter 264: Red and Black Brave and Brave
Pang Tong's eyes narrowed, and he thought to himself: "In history, Guo Fengxiao died of illness, otherwise Cao Wei would be stronger." It's a pity that it's such a coincidence. ”
The hostage-for-prisoner exchange seemed to have been negotiated very smoothly at the last moment. But Guo Jia, who walked out of Pangtong's "small mansion", turned around and looked at the scene inside the open door as if he had just crawled out of hell. As if a shadowless magic hand was still reaching out to grab him, he shook his head coldly, and with a wave of his sleeve got into the carriage.
Guo Jia, who returned to Wei, came to Cao Cao's palace at the first moment, at this time, Cao Cao had just been proclaimed emperor, and the news had just been sent to various places through documents. Guo Jiaju recounted the war of words with Pang Tong. Cao Cao frowned, even his brows were one high and one low.
"This Pang Shiyuan is so far-sighted?"
"This person really has the same unpredictable opportunities as the rumors, if it seems so, it may be even better than Zhou Yu. Otherwise, Sima Zhongda would not have returned in vain that day. ”
"I always thought that Sima Yi was enough to capture Pang Tong, but I didn't expect this person to be so difficult to deal with." Cao Cao's eyes began to wander. "Fengxiao, how do you think this person is better than me?"
Guo Jia was motionless and sighed: "It's really an unbearable question, after all, everyone can't be compared casually, people are different in many ways, on the one hand, if they are strong, they must be weak in one aspect." Otherwise, outside Tangping Pass, Pang Tong would not have been defeated by Ma Teng. ”
"Are you saying nice things?" Cao Cao said in a deep voice: "Ma Teng's Liangzhou has been swallowed up by Pang Tong, and this person has been growing. If I had known that he would grow so big, I should have gotten rid of him. It's too late to regret it......"
As he spoke, Cao Cao's mind sank, the phantoms in front of him overlapped, and the whole person leaned to the side, almost falling from the throne. Guo Jiadu had already run over, but Cao Cao still insisted on holding the seat with one hand.
"What's wrong with the emperor?"
Cao Cao felt a little dizzy for a while, unable to speak, and only realized that he could see things clearly.
"Somehow, for a while, my head seemed to be plugged in by something, and it was uncomfortable." Cao Cao couldn't explain what he had just done.
"Do you want the Imperial Doctor to take a look?"
Cao Cao waved his hand and said, "It's much better now, maybe it's a heat stroke, it's not in the way." ”
Guo Jia nodded suspiciously, but his eyes were firmly fixed on Cao Cao, as if he wanted to see through his surface and see the root of the disease inside. He felt that Cao Cao should not be suffering from heat stroke, but it was useless to say more.
At Jiangxia City, Pang Tong learned that Cao Cao was the emperor. He gathered the civil and military forces in the hall. Lu Bu strode out: "Since Cao Mengde abolished the Han Emperor, then there is no Han Dynasty, we don't need to worry too much, and ask the virtuous brother to hurry up and become the emperor, otherwise he will be looked down upon by the Wei State!" ”
"I didn't think about it...... If he Cao Mengde abolished the emperor, then how could Liu Bei agree, Cao Cao shouldn't know this truth. He suddenly sighed and said, "Liu Guanzhang, and that great sage, it seems that there is more luck and less luck." ”
"Inevitably." Zhou Yu said: "Since Cao Cao plans to be the emperor, there is no reason to inform him in advance, he must have controlled these people." I believe that Liu Bei is the unyielding lord who would rather die, and this person is going to kill several capable people. However, I also heard that Cao Cao was very good to Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhuge Liang, building luxurious mansions and giving a lot of gold and silver artifacts and beauties......"
"Brother Gongjin doesn't seem to know these people." Lu Bu smiled: "These guys can't be bought with money, if Cao Cao makes this move, then at least Zhuge Liang and his ilk should have been on guard a long time ago." ”
"Hopefully it's okay. If it is already in the ground, there is no way, Cao Cao has a lot of strategists and fierce generals, they are weak, and they will definitely suffer. Pang Tong said indifferently.
"Then let's get down to business." Lu Bu's tone was very tough, and he stared at Pang Tong. "Brother Xian doesn't think about himself, but also for the common people in the world, hurry up and call the emperor, let my Ren Dynasty soldiers swallow mountains and rivers!"
Pang Tong turned his gaze to Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu came out and said: "I think what General Lu said is extremely true. There are always people in the abolition room who will make irresponsible remarks, but this bad guy was done by Cao Cao himself, and it is okay for us. Since the Han family is gone, we should take advantage of the situation and turn Renguo into a Renchao, so as to prepare for the great cause of unifying the whole country in the future. ”
Xu Shu came out from the right and said: "Yes, the king of the world has won half of the wall." The problem is that this half of the country borders on the border peoples. Except for a small part of the territory of Jiaozhou and bordered by foreigners, the rest of Cao Mengde's territory intersects with the sea, and only we have an outside threat. The strategists of the Wei State must have seen through this weakness, and they must have taken advantage of it to our disadvantage. ”
Pang Tong nodded, and Lu Bu did frown.
"So we must build a Ren Dynasty, and we must not lose to Cao Cao in terms of morale."
"It's not morale that solves the border problem." Pang Tong reminded.
"The enemy has already proclaimed the emperor, do we want to be a small country of the Han Dynasty that has been abolished by Cao Cao?" Xu Shu asked.
"This kind of thing is already doomed, but everyone's advice is very good." Pang Tong took a deep breath. "Thinking about things for so many years, today, I finally have to embark on such a heavy step. However, it seems that the pace has never been easy. ”
He looked at the civil and military officials around him and nodded with satisfaction.
"So many years ......"
Unexpectedly, no one gave him a chance to speak at length, and a soldier galloped in and said, "King, there are two biao men who have entered, and one of them is directly clamoring to see you." We saw that he was very unreasonable, and wanted to capture him, but unexpectedly, many people were injured by the snake spear in his hand, and no one dared to get close to him......"
"Snake spear!"
Pang Tong bounced up from the big seat.
"Is there a black face and a red face?" Although Lu Bu was a beat slower than Pang Tong, he still reflected.
"Exactly, the bare-faced one was holding a long knife. When we asked them who they were, they even shouted for General Lu to prepare food and drinks. Please go generals, we can't stop it......"
The people on both sides of the road watched by the wall, and hundreds of officers and soldiers surrounded the two big Han regiments, but these formations were moving with the two of them, and no one dared to approach. Dozens of people had already been wounded by them along the way, but none of them attacked with the tip of their blades, sparing a life.
"Who's presumptuous here!" Zhang Ren came on horseback, and the soldiers separated. He was in the barracks, and he heard someone break in, and he came to see before anyone could stop him. I thought it was a small group of enemy forces making trouble, but when I came to take a look, there were really only two people, holding a war horse in one hand and a heavy soldier in the other. When he saw that the two of them were born well, his fighting spirit was ignited, he turned over and dismounted, and killed them with a long knife. The red-faced Guan Yu took two steps forward with the Qinglong Yanyue Knife in his hand, and the sound of the double knife exchange "dang", Zhang Ren felt that his arm was numb, and after fighting for another six rounds, Zhang Ren was difficult to parry, and decisively took a few steps back, and said: "Dare to ask where the hero came from?" ”
"Get out of the way!"
Lu Bu shouted loudly and came with a red rabbit war horse, and Pang Tong followed. The audience was silent, and the things that attracted Nioh and the Northern Heavenly King were confusing.
The two of them both dismounted and walked quickly, Pang Tong pointed directly at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and laughed: "Good guy, come to my territory to make trouble!" ”
"The two of you are finally here!" Lu Bu was also smiling.
Guan Yu arched his hand and said: "I'm really ashamed, I don't know if King Ni can take me in." ”
"How can there be so much nonsense, Feng Xian, wine and food!" Zhang Fei shouted.
"Okay, you Zhang Yide, let's see who has a good amount of alcohol today!" Lu Bu said proudly.
Zhang Ren gasped and said in his heart: "Guan and Zhang in Weizhen Shu? Damn, I almost found ...... dead."
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei came to Pang Tong, and Pang Tong set up a banquet in the hall that night. Under the moon, Guan Zhangju complained about the past, and tearfully talked about the separation from Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang.
"It seems that Kong Ming doesn't want to continue to muddy the waters." Pang Tong sighed lightly.
"The military advisor worked hard for the Shu Kingdom, and it was not in vain for the eldest brother to take care of the thatched house." Guan Yu said: "The eldest brother is a compassionate lord, it is better to plant a few acres of land, otherwise even if he becomes the emperor, without me and Yide, I am afraid that it will be easy to be instigated and harmed by the villain." ”
He had no scruples.
"You've been at Cao Cao's office for a while, how are you doing in terms of internal affairs and military affairs?" Pang Tong was most eager to know the details of the enemy.
Zhang Fei replied first: "Cao Cao has done quite well in internal affairs, how to say it, this person is still very good to the people, although he is a bit domineering, and there are many doubts." ”
"No matter how good his internal affairs are, they can't compare to my political system." Pang Tong said coldly.
"Is that what Shi Yuan said before to make the people equal?" Guan Yu asked.
Pang Tong nodded and said: "Exactly, we must make everyone equal, govern the dynasty according to law, and depose Confucianism." ”
