Chapter 164: Drunk Pang Tong kneaded Xiangyu
"No! No, it can't be! ”
He said repeatedly, and sat down on the ground suddenly, his body lying down heavily. Immediately fell asleep.
The next day, Pang Tong escaped from his deep sleep.
"Ahh
She was startled when she saw Pang Tong standing up. Pang Tong looked at her with suspicion. After all, how could a killer ranked No. 1 in the Red Lotus Sect scream because he suddenly got up, this was an incredible thing. Her exclamation must have been due to something else. Pang Tong couldn't figure out the girl's mental dynamics, he had forgotten all about last night. But when she saw Xue Yue's pretty face, she said, "What did you do?" ”
Xue Yue, who frowned, said angrily: "You just did something wrong!" Hum! ”
After saying that, he left the house. Pang Tong sat down dumbfounded, picked up a piece of red, hot pastry and put it in his mouth. This man may never know what happened last night in his life, but that night was unbelievable and memorable for a sixteen-year-old girl.
On the second day, Pang Tong, Huang Zhong and others gathered in the lobby and sat down. Huang Zhong, who was in a relaxed mood, took a sip of tea and said, "Right now, the south is under our control, so we have to go north." However, the situation is still not optimistic. After Cai Mao fled back, he gathered troops, especially the forces of the border guards, and recruited troops from all over the north, and now he has gathered about 300,000 people......"
"It's messing around!" Pang Tong said loudly: "For your own selfishness, do you plan to destroy the entire Jingzhou?" ”
Contrary to Huang Zhong's calmness, Wen Ping, who was in a heavy mood, frowned and said: "I am waiting in the midst of the crowd, and if we continue to fight like this, we will bring about our own destruction." Ay. The transfer of border defense forces from the north is simply nonsense. Although Pang Tong's army pressed on Yizhou, it did not move. Pang Shiyuan is scheming, and his scheming has long been known to the world. I think that his troops in Yizhou will come to our side at any time, and when the north side is air-defense, it will be breached soon. I'm really ashamed of Liu Zhoumu. ”
Pang Tong, who was smiling, thought to himself: "If I have this thought, you will really be finished." But then you have to pay a heavy price, Zhuge Liang is not easy to deal with. ”
He looked at the expectant eyes of everyone throwing him forward, thought for a moment, and said: "Jiangxia is stable, the south is stable, and now the north is missing." I think it's better to go on a northern expedition as soon as possible. ”
Liu Xian, whose face was stunned, said: "Is it too hasty to rush north with our troops now?" ”
"No!" Pang Tong decisively denied him, and when he wanted to open his mouth to express his thoughts, a messenger suddenly came, claiming to be from Liu Qi, the eldest prince of Wuling. The crowd was puzzled. The envoy was brought into the house by the guards, and it turned out to be Wang Cang, a strategist who Pang Tong had a relationship with in Xiangyang City before.
After Wang Cang took his seat, he took a sip of water, put down the cup, and said with a sigh of relief: "I heard that General Huang defeated Cai Mao and Huang Zu along the way, so I really asked me to wait for me." ”
Huang Zhong, who showed a smile, pointed at Pang Tong and said, "It's him, not me!" Then he told the whole thing. Wang Cang looked at Pang Tong in surprise, and hurriedly got up and bent down towards Pang Tong and arched his hand: "Thank you Feng Xiao for your help, otherwise my Jingzhou would have fallen into the hands of thieves a long time ago." ”
Pang Tong, who got up with him, hurriedly smiled and said, "My lord's words are serious, and my meager strength is just a small amount." ”
The two of them returned to their seats. Wang Cang, whose expression was still heavy, said: "I arrived at Sun Quan half a month ago, hoping to help the eldest prince win Sun Quan's support. I promised Sun Quan that if the eldest prince takes the throne, the two families will have a bloody alliance in the future and break Cao Cao together. ”
Frowning, Pang Tong hurriedly asked, "Then how did Sun Quan answer?" ”
Liu Xian, Huang Zhong, and Wen Ping all stared at Wang Cang with bated breath.
I only heard Wang Cang say in a deep voice: "These Jiangdong people are really difficult to get. Especially Zhou Yu, who is young, but scheming for the countrymen. He quarreled with me, but I couldn't beat him, so I said a few words. Sun Quan later told me to wait for news, and I came back. ”
Wen Ping snorted coldly and said, "Back then, Liu Zhoumu ordered to stop Sun Jian. Huang Zu and Sun Jian fought, and Sun Jian died after being seriously injured, which is known to the world. They Jiangdong people regard us as enemies, and if they have a choice, they will not fight Cao Cao, and the first one will attack our Jingzhou. If it weren't for Cao Cao's containment now, I'm afraid Sun Quan would have waved his troops over a long time ago. ”
Huang Zhong, who agreed with him very much, nodded heavily and said: "Jiangdong people will not ally with us so easily, don't easily show flaws, but be used by them." ”
However, Wang Cang still had nothing to say, he said: "A letter came from Yangzhou, saying that an envoy was sent to Lukou County, Changsha County at the end of September to talk with us. ”
Huang Zhong, who took a deep breath, said calmly: "I can't talk about it, and I can't stop talking about it, it's really unbearable." ”
Wang Cang said: "The eldest prince has left, and he should have arrived at Lukou." It's just that I really don't know what Sun Quan is calculating. ”
Among the people present, Liu Xian no longer has the right to speak. Whether it is status, knowledge or merit, he is the last, and at this moment he listens to the diplomatic affairs of Jingzhou with trepidation.
After some thought, Pang Tong said: "It shouldn't be easy for Jingzhou people to come over to negotiate. I'm willing to go with you. General Huang and Master Wen are still guarding here. As if he had seen through Wang Cang's intentions, he said: "Lord Wang, please rest assured, although I have no prestige in Jingzhou, I can make achievements in diplomacy, please believe me." ”
Wang Cang, whose forehead was covered with sweat, said in a trembling voice: "Feng Xiao seems to have finished everything I have to say." I'm here to invite a respectable adult to go with me, so as not to get caught up in the crooked ways of his Jingzhou people. ”
Huang Zhong, who showed a relieved smile, said loudly: "Let Feng Xiao go, I am very relieved of him." There will be unexpected results. ”
Before leaving, Pang Tong said to Huang Zhong; "The general must hold on and not act rashly."
Four days later, at ten o'clock in the evening, the crowd arrived in Lukou County. Pang Tong and the others also learned that the other party's envoy arrived yesterday. Liu Qi is anxiously waiting for Wang Cang and others to arrive, and it will be unreasonable if it drags on for too long.
