"On the contrary, you can give Zhuge Liang a blow to the head." Pang Tong sneered. Both of them should have realized that the opponent in their conversation was not Liu Bei, but Zhuge Liang, who was a military advisor.

Pang Tong and Zhang Ren began to act. The hardships and dangers have been passed, and the one-foot-high wooden pillar is not a difficulty for them. They quickly climbed over, with small movements and very cautious. After entering, he secretly bypassed the tent and arrived at the opposite door, which was guarded by twenty men. The rest of the people, under the leadership of Pang Tong, lit the brazier in the village and knocked them all down next to the camp.

The tents were burned. When the Shu army was shocked, Pang Tongjun shouted that the sound of killing shook the sky. In a hurry, he was cut off and bleeding. Because they never thought that Pang Tongjun would take this road, they were also shocked. Soon someone fell to their knees and begged for mercy.

Several people tried to flee from the front, but were cut to the ground. A dozen people were captured. Pang Tongyi learned after interrogation. It turned out that Zhuge Liang had secretly fortified here as early as when Chengdu had not yet started the great migration. Obviously, at that time, Zhuge Liang had already guessed that it would be impossible to completely resist Pang Tongjun. And the strategy of Hina Pass is also a delaying strategy. Therefore, it is only possible to hold on to the absolute danger.

And if it weren't for Zhang Ren, Pang Tong would never have thought of this place. But if they didn't find the smoke of gunpowder and rashly advanced, after being discovered by the enemy, they would be in a dilemma.

"He's on complete defense." Pang Tong sighed lightly. "This trapped beast is going to tire out the soldiers of my country."

Obviously, these captives are more familiar with the route than Zhang Ren, who has not taken it for a long time. They took Pang Tong and others through this difficult road and went straight behind the Shu army. Originally, there was a small city called Lu Kuang at the foot of the mountain five miles west of Jiangyang County, which was full of grain and grass, and was heavily guarded by heavy soldiers, and it was difficult to find. The captives' revelation of this matter can be said to have made a great contribution.

But the heavily fortified town was not so easy to attack. The 1,000 guards inside are not vegetarians. After discussing with Zhang Ren, Pang Tong came to a conclusion, that is, he and Pang Tong secretly entered to investigate the situation and then find a way.

That night, the two relied on hooks to go up the wall. There were many soldiers at the head of the wall, and the two of them reached the top of the wall in the shadows of a brazier. Then go down from the inner wall.

The city was full of earthen forts, and they were full of grain. They probed, cautiously avoiding the patrols.

"Sixteen earthen forts." Pang Tong said softly. Then he met with Zhang Ren at the agreed place.

"What should I do?" Zhang Ren asked in a low voice. The two of them squatted against a large vat.

"If you burn them one by one, it's unrealistic to rely on the two of us, and we will soon be discovered by the enemy." Pang Tong said: "I have an idea. But you'll have to get out first. ”

Half an hour later, the whole town was in an uproar, and suddenly a row of torches appeared in the east, and it seemed that a large army had pressed against it. The guards at the top of the wall stood nervously, keeping an eye on the enemies. At this time, thirty soldiers of the Pang Tong Army secretly went up the wall at the west wall to reach the inside.

The soldiers at the top of the wall watched nervously at the sudden halt of the torches. The torches were all extinguished at once, and this action made the already solemn guards feel even more nervous, as if the enemy was elusive.

Some people are even more anxious about how it is possible that such an important area will be discovered and attacked by people when it is a rock-solid defensive measure. This can be said to be a small city left by Zhuge Liang for the final battle, and it will also be a battle to the death.

Unfortunately, the abundant grain and grass used for the final battle burned, and a fire snake erupted from the door of the earthen fort. As the defenders approached the walls as if they were facing a great enemy, none of them noticed the shadows. Even some of the soldiers of the Pang Tong army had already passed by them, and they didn't realize that they were enemies. It can be seen that the effect of this move has been maximized.

On one side is the flickering enemy, and on the other side is the fire within. It's like a guard who has been dragged down to the last nerve in a panic. And Pang Tong and the others also sneaked out at this time. Unexpectedly, when the two of them were under the city wall, they were finally discovered and fell to the ground with an arrow. According to the current situation, it is impossible to fight the defenders. Pang Tong and the others didn't care whether the two soldiers were dead or alive, so they had to run away quickly.

The attack on Lu Kuang, a grain city, was a major blow to Shu. The food needed for the defense was completely wiped out. The Shu army was no longer able to support the defense, let alone the expedition. Under this premise, Liu Bei sat down in the chair and said to Zhuge Liang: "The sky is going to kill me!" ”

"The king must have made a decision, right?" Zhuge Liang said unhurriedly.

"What else can be done, Pang Tong actually descended from the sky and attacked Lu Kuang. I can't face such an opponent anymore. Liu Bei lowered his head and said, "You can call me cowardly." But you can't help it, right? ”

"How can Big Brother say that?" Zhang Fei said, he and Guan Yu walked into the dormitory.

"The military advisor did his best for the Shu country, and he almost died on the battlefield. If it weren't for him, we alone wouldn't be Shi Yuan's opponent. Guan Yu said.

"Shiyuan ......" Liu Bei heard such an affectionate title, and said in a lamented voice: "This person is an enemy!" But...... He's a good old man. I, Liu Bei, am really unbearable, oh my God! He had one hand to the sky, his body trembling, and his face was sad.

"With the King's current performance, I already know your decision." Zhuge Liang calmly arched his hand and said, "It would be nice if it was a peaceful event." The king will be a wise king. It's a blessing that the Han family has descendants like you. ”

Guan Yu shook his head suddenly. Zhang Fei sighed.

A few days later, Pang Tong returned to Dazhai, knowing that the Shu army was gone, and he set off immediately. No resistance was found on the approach to Jiangyang County, which was a surprising situation. Shouldn't you be dying as a Shu army?

After seeing Jiangyang County, which was backed by the mountains, Pang Tong's army stopped. The gates of the city wall were opened, and a large number of soldiers knelt on the ground. When Pang Tong learned of this, he galloped to the forefront of the army. What he saw was a banner embroidered with the word benevolence erected on the wall. Countless Shu troops knelt down under the wall, and at the forefront were some civil and military officials.

Pang Tong reflexively dismounted and walked over.

"I'm Pang Tong, why are you waiting?"

Suddenly, a civil official sat up and said: "I am Dong Yun of Shu State, we only want to be peaceful in Shu, and the whole people are healthy, and we don't want to fight anymore." ”

Pang Tong's main concern was not why they surrendered.

"Why don't you see Brother Xuande?"

"The king was summoned by the Han Emperor and went to Wei."

"Damn!" Pang Tong shouted. I almost fainted.

It turned out that Liu Bei took Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei away, leaving the defenseless Brazil County to Pang Tong. Because of the missed opportunity to subdue the virtuous, Pang Tong's chest was tight. He rested for half a month to calm his mood. It also gave the army a chance to breathe. Shuzhong began to recover. The entire Shu Kingdom is no longer there. Pang Tong officially owned Yizhou.

But he is not alone in expanding his territory. Cao Cao actually broke through Jiujiang County and Lujiang County, and went deep into Yangzhou, and Wu was in a hurry. This situation was completely unexpected by Pang Tong. After the Battle of Chibi, Wu's military power became vulnerable. Obviously, he should be able to defeat Cao Cao, at least he should have seized the territory, but Cao Cao counterattacked to the lair.

"I really don't know what Sun Quan is thinking?!" Pang Tong was completely confused about this matter. Thanks to him, he successfully subdued Shuzhong, otherwise he would not be able to keep up with Cao Cao's pace. However, if Liu Bei and others were used by the Wei State, it would be a great disaster.

"Cao Mengde has no shortage of civil and military affairs!" Pang Tong raised his back and said loudly, as if sighing at the injustice of the sky.

He knew very well what kind of effect a Zhuge Liang would have in Cao Cao's hands. This is completely different from being in Liu Bei's hands. If Zhuge Liang becomes a military division and adjusts the overall situation of the Wei State, a large number of civilian, military and soldiers will show absolute combat power. In that case-

"Wu Guo is not guaranteed."

He immediately wrote a letter and asked people to send it to Liu Qi.

Liu Qi looked at it after receiving the documents. He summoned Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue.

"After taking Yizhou, Pang Tong finally sent us a letter. It's the same touch he had promised. If he breaks through Yizhou, he will come to take the land of Jingzhou. Jingzhou is no longer his barrier. Liu Qi said calmly. He looked at the two again.

Kuai Yue arched his hand and said: "Right now, Cao Cao is powerful, and he ordered Jiaozhou to chase and attack us. Sun Quan was defeated by them, and it is impossible for us to hold out for a long time. The current turmoil at the end of the Han Dynasty is almost at its most intense. What will follow will be only the struggle between the state of Ren and the state of Wei. Our Jingzhou was not taken seriously by them at all. In any case, if we continue to fight, we will only end up with a crushing defeat, which will be detrimental to the people. The governor had to choose the best side and entrust the people to him. There's only one way. ”

Liu Qi nodded and said, "It's unbearable." ”

Kuai Liang said: "Cao Cao held the Son of Heaven hostage, and his soldiers were strong and strong. If he had obtained the territory of Wu, the overall quality of the total territory would be higher than that of those possessed by Pang Tong. In that case, Cao Cao is actually the party with abundant resources. And Pang Tong is a rookie who holds a benevolent flag to conquer everywhere. He was a wild horse, and many princes were defeated at his feet. Really unbearable choice. After all, Cao Cao has countless civil and military officials, and his soldiers are strong. Otherwise, he would not have counterattacked Sun Quan immediately after the defeat of Chibi. ”

"I know." Liu Qi bowed his head. "How can it be?"

Kuai Yue continued: "No matter which side we help, it will hasten the end of the split situation, and a new dynasty will emerge. We have to stand on the strongest side, and the war will end sooner. It all depends on Liu Zhoumu. ”

"I don't know why, but I have a choice intuitively. I believe in this person more. Liu Qi said, and the two strategists gave up their hands one after another, as if they realized something.

"Let General Huang decide." Liu Qi waved his sleeve.

"I'll wait." Kuailiang Road.
