Cao's army besieged Xiangyang, and the people sent by Liu Biao to ask for help never responded.

Xinye is not far from Xiangyang, and several days have passed, but Liu Bei has not sent troops to help.

didn't wait for reinforcements, but Liu Biao waited for Pang Tong.

With a few guards, Pang Tong stationed outside Xiangyang City.

The Jingzhou army at the head of the city did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly reported to Liu Biao.

After being in the city for several days, Liu Biao went down to rest and soon got the news that Pang Tong asked to see him.

Hurried to the head of the city and looked out of the city, and sure enough, he saw Pang Tong waiting at the city gate under the escort of several guards.

"Why did you want to enter Xiangyang?" Holding on to the battlements, Liu Biao shouted to Pang Tong.

"Didn't I come to Xiangyang to bring a way to live for Jingsheng Gong?" Pang Tong said: "If Jingsheng Gong refuses to see me, then I'll go back." ”

"What kind of way to live?" Hearing a hint of a turn in Pang Tong's words, Liu Biao hurriedly asked.

"Is it possible that Jingsheng Gong plans to talk to me in a city and outside the city?" Pang Tong didn't respond, just smiled indifferently.

Liu Biao was stunned and looked at Pang Tong with some hesitation.

"If Jingsheng Gong is afraid, I can't say anything." Pang Tong said: "Don't leave it at that, just wait for the son to come and launch a large army to attack the city." ”

"What does it mean to be honored?" Pang Tong was about to turn around and leave, Liu Biao hurriedly shouted.

"I only brought a few guards, but Jingsheng Gong is in the city." Pang Tong said: "Could it be that if you invite me into the city to speak, Jingsheng Gong will not dare?" ”

Stimulated by Pang Tong like this, Liu Biao's face suddenly became very ugly, and he asked, "Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to get out of the city?" ”

"It doesn't matter if I can get out or not." Pang Tong smiled and said, "The important thing is that once I can't come out, I'm afraid there will be no more living creatures in the entire Xiangyang." If Jing Shenggong feels that I am more important than the whole of Xiangyang, even if I die, I feel that it is worth it. ”

His eyes narrowed slightly, and Liu Biao's face was even more ugly than just now.

Cai Mao, who was standing beside him, whispered: "Jingsheng Gong, Pang Shiyuan is one of the most effective people under Cao Zirong. Sending him to Xiangyang, Cao Zirong did have something important to say, and secondly, he had made up his mind, as long as we treated Pang Shiyuan as such, the entire Jingzhou would probably be surnamed Cao. ”

"How can you say such a thing?" glaring at Cai Mao fiercely, Liu Biao whispered, "I know what you said." ”

"I think Jing Shenggong should still let Pang Tong enter the city." Kuai Liang on the side also said: "Let's see what he says first, if what he says is reasonable, it is better to take advantage of him to ask Cao Zirong for a chance to make peace." If what he says doesn't matter, we will kill him first, and then fight Cao Zirong to the death. ”

Liu Biao nodded, frowned tightly and said, "It can only be like this." ”

He then shouted, "Open the gates and let them in!" ”

The gate of Xiangyang slowly opened.

Pang Tong saw several people come out.

Zheng Kuaiyue who came out with a group of Jingzhou troops.

In front of Pang Tong, Kuai Yue saluted and said, "I've seen Pang Gong." ”

Pang Tong used to be old friends with Zhuge Liang, and Zhuge Liang bowed to Nanyang, not far from Xiangyang, Kuai Yue was a high-ranking person in Jingzhou, of course Pang Tong recognized him.

Bowing back, Pang Tong said: "There is Lao Kuai Gong personally out of the city to greet him." ”

"Gong Jingsheng is already waiting in the city, Gong Pang, please!" Kuai Yue stepped aside and asked Pang Tong to enter the city.

Pang Tong did not shirk, and rode his horse towards the city gate.

Cao Jun barracks.

Looking at Pang Tong who entered the city, Xiahoudun said to Guo Jia: "Pang Shiyuan is also too bold, the two armies are fighting, and he actually dares to enter Xiangyang City." ”

"Childe's subordinates, how many are not very daring?" Guo Jia said: "Pang Shiyuan enters Xiangyang, and it won't be long before Gongzi will come, I'm afraid that Liu Jingsheng and Gongzi will have to meet." ”

"Could it be that Cheng Gongzi is also going to enter the city?" Xiahoudun said: "That's too risky. ”

"Childe never does things that he is not sure of, and I don't know what he wants." Guo Jia smiled slightly and said to Xiahoudun: "I only know what he decides to do, and he must be seven or eight points sure." ”

Xiahoudun didn't say anything more.

It's not a day or two to know Cao Shuo.

He really didn't look at Cao Shuo a few years ago, but since the Battle of Wancheng, Cao Shuo suddenly seemed to be a different person.

Not only did he learn a superb swordsmanship from Wang Yue, but on horseback, a halberd was also superb.

In addition, Cao Shuo used tactics that he had never seen before, and he almost never tasted defeat.

In the minds of Xiahoudun and Cao Jun's generals, Cao Shuo had long since detached himself into an invincible myth.

It's just that even Guo Jia couldn't grasp what Cao Shuo wanted next, which was indeed a bit unexpected by Xiahoudun.

"Shouldn't we do something?" Xiahoudun asked Guo Jia: "You can't just wait outside the city......

"What can we do?" Guo Jia said: "Gongzi no longer plans to continue to attack Xiangyang, he just wants to get benefits from Liu Jingsheng, what do you think we should do at this time?" ”

was asked by Guo Jia and didn't know how to respond, Xiahou frowned tightly and didn't say anything more.

At this time, Pang Tong had already entered Xiangyang City.

The city gate was closed, Kuai Yue got off his horse, and said to Pang Tong: "Pang Gong, Jingsheng Gong is waiting in the city......

"I entered the city to bring the news that the Cao family was about to retire from the army to Jingshenggong, but Jingshenggong was waiting at the head of the city, don't you feel a little rude?" Pang Tong did not dismount, but said to Kuai Yue: "Please also ask Kuai to announce the knowledge of Jing Shenggong, and ask him to talk to me in detail in the mansion, otherwise open the city gate and let me go back." ”

Kuai Yue was stunned for a moment, and then said to Pang Tong: "What Pang Gong said is that I will go to Jingsheng Gong to return to him." ”

"I'll wait here." Pang Tong responded.

Kuai Yue climbed the city wall, and Pang Tong looked around, looking at the nearby scenery.

Guo Jia led the army to Xiangyang, and the people in the city were panicked, and the people dared to go out.

Xiangyang City, which used to be bustling and very lively, is now empty on the streets, except for some Jingzhou troops who are running around to prepare for city defense, how can there be an ordinary person?

After Pang Tong entered the city, the Jingzhou army put thick antlers behind the city gate.

Although the antlers could not stop the Cao army from breaking the gate, after the city gate was breached, it could prevent the Cao army cavalry from rushing into the city at the first time, and the two sides could also fight at the city gate.

The Jingzhou army has prepared to resist to the death, and once the siege begins, it will definitely be a dead end.

Just looking around, Kuai Yue took Liu Biao, Cai Mao, Kuai Liang and a group of Jingzhou officials down the city wall.

Before he arrived in front of Pang Tong, Liu Biao had already raised his fists and said, "Since Pang Gong has entered Jingzhou, please say anything clearly." ”
