Chapter 103: The Dragon's Singing and the Phoenix's Singing (2)
"Kong Ming, now that my lord has Yongliang and the five northern states of Ji, half of Shuzhong has been included in my territory, and half of the world has been obtained. Liu Bei can't win, it's better to go back to Luoyang with me, with your talent, he may not be able to pay homage to the prime minister in the future. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Pang Tong sat on the seat, looked at Zhuge Liang, and said seriously.
"Shi Yuan's words are wrong!" Zhuge Liang's face was solemn, and he shook his head and said: "My lord Uncle Liu Huang is a relative of the Han family, after the imperial family, it is the orthodoxy of the royal family, Lu Bu is reckless, if he is allowed to control the court and the world, it is not the blessing of all the people, the blessing of the family, it is better for Shiyuan to vote for my lord, you and I will jointly assist the Ming Lord, and then open a prosperous world." ”
"Kong Ming really thinks so?" Pang Tong glanced at Zhuge Liang with a smile, shook his head and said: "Hero Mo asks about his background, Liu Bang was only a pavilion chief back then, but he sat on the foundation of the Han Dynasty for four hundred years. ”
"Liu Bei I also know, undeniable, but there is a heroic posture, but it has lost the time, the place, as for the people and ......" Pang Tong shook his head and sighed: "Kong Ming may never have experienced what is the support of the people, now in Yongliang, almost every family worships my lord Lu Bu, and the Saiwaihu tribe is called the god of war, don't tell me what to fight the world and guard the world, Chang'an is now under the governance of my lord can not close the door at night, three years ago the northwest drought, the people almost no harvest, but under my rule, but no one starved to death, At the beginning, Cao Cao sent someone to assassinate my lord, and the whole country was angry, and the people of the five states rushed to sign up to join the army. ”
"As for the prosperous era, if there is a chance, Kong Ming should really go to Chang'an for a walk, and only then will he know what the prosperous era is! What is the coming of all nations? In the end, Pang Tong couldn't help laughing, ten years ago, who would have thought that Chang'an was prosperous today, countless foreigners were proud to join the Han Dynasty, and many small countries would rather join the clan, this kind of external attraction and centripetal force, from ancient times to the present, has never appeared.
"Lu Bu can have today, but the sword is on the wrong side, it can't last, Lu Bu is too strong to the outside world, and over time, he will suffer the consequences! Shi Yuan Mo wanted to forget Qin II and die. Zhuge Liang shook his head, to deal with Lu Bu, he naturally knew about Lu Bu, and even went to Chang'an in person, of course he knew the prosperity of Chang'an, but Lu Bu's attitude towards the outside world, if he was not satisfied, he would fight, and use various means to collect money from foreign countries, and after a long time, it would naturally cause public anger.
"Hey, Qin II died, but because the descendants were not filial, if the first emperor can live for another ten years, I'm afraid the world will be a different scene." Pang Tong shook his head, looked at Zhuge Liang and said: "Confucian things, self-cultivation, teaching and educating people are good, but if you talk about governing the world, it is too decadent, my lord is strong externally, it is not a day or two, but as far as I can see, it is those states that are more and more obedient, on the other hand, the Han Dynasty has been repaying grievances with virtue for four hundred years, but the external troubles have never been extinguished, and the distinction between high and low is clear at a glance." ”
"Shi Yuan, you are also a Confucian apprentice, Mr. Shui Jing Jiuquan, how would you feel if you knew what you said today?" Zhuge Liang shook his head and sighed.
"The more the reasoning is argued, the more clear it is, it is a mistake to respect Confucianism alone, and now that I am in charge of a hundred schools of thought, then Zheng Kangcheng admits what the lord has done, if Mr. Quanxia knows, he should also support me." A touch of sadness flashed in Pang Tong's eyes, when Mr. Shuijing Sima Hui passed away a few years ago, he was not able to be present, and he had always regretted it in his heart, but now that he was mentioned by Kong Ming, he couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart.
"Kang Chenggong is old after all." Zhuge Liang shook his head.
"It seems that neither you nor I can convince anyone." Pang Tong sighed, in the past, when they were in Lumen, when the two often did academic debates, neither of them could convince each other, but I didn't expect that to this day, it is still the case: "Then the world will determine the victory, if the lord of the day breaks Xiangyang, I will ask the lord to intercede for you." ”
"On the day my lord set foot in Luoyang, Liang gave up his official position and wanted to protect Shiyuan." Zhuge Liang shook his head and didn't give in.
"We'll see." Pang Tong stood up, looked at Zhang Fei's side, and laughed: "The next time we meet, I'm afraid it won't be so friendly." ”
Zhuge Liang couldn't help but be silent when he heard this, his former friend, today, after all, is going to face off on the battlefield, and his heart is also complicated and difficult to understand, after hugging his fist to Pang Tong, the two of them silently retreated to their true nature, and then, it is time to see the truth on the battlefield.
"Shiyuan, what's the matter?" Pang Tong came back, and Wei Yan hurriedly caught up.
"Prepare for war." Pang Tong smiled, and on his ugly face, there was a bit of indescribable confidence at the moment.
On the other side, Zhang Fei also came up, looked at Zhuge Liang and said, "Kong Ming, what's wrong?" ”
"Troops, prepare to attack the city!" Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan, but his expression was solemn, the main force of the next battle was the Shu army and the Jingzhou army, the elite of Guanzhong could not come for a while, the combat power of the soldiers and the number of troops were similar, and then, it naturally depended on who was better than Pang Tong.
"Good!" When Zhang Fei heard this, his eyes lit up.
"Woo~"
The desolate horn was accompanied by the rumbling drums, and the Jingzhou soldiers and horses and the Shu army continued to pour out from the military camp and began to attack Deyang.
Wei Yan, who was accustomed to the elite ultra-long range of Guanzhong, was obviously not suitable for commanding this war, and the task of presiding over the war was entrusted to Zhang Ren, and one after another siege vehicles began to attack the city wall under the cover of wooden beasts.
On the city wall, Zhang Ren commanded the soldiers to throw down the rolling wooden stones, even if the turtle shell of the wooden beast faced the fierce bombardment of the stones, they began to shatter one by one, and the Jingzhou army began to fight along the siege ladder and the soldiers defending the city, and then were quickly driven down, and the residual value of the broken arm mixed with blood began to wash the ancient city wall over and over again.
In fact, attacking and defending the city, aside from the gap in equipment, there are only a few routines, unless the quality of the soldiers is too different, according to the normal routine, it is more difficult, therefore, the wise generals and commanders are more willing to lure the enemy out of the city to fight a war of annihilation, and they are rarely willing to forcibly attack the city.
Zhuge Liang waved his troops to attack at this time, it was also a helpless move, his opponent was Pang Tong, the two knew the roots, and in order to facilitate the later Ma Jian to act, he must hold Pang Tong's soldiers and horses here as much as possible, as long as Chengdu succeeded, Pang Tong would fall into a dilemma, and even cut off the grain and grass, then this battle can naturally be won without a fight.
On Pang Tong's side, Zhuge Liang wants to fight a war of attrition with himself, Pang Tong can't ask for it, and under the ghosts of both sides, the arrogance is unprecedentedly fierce.
Zhang Fei personally went into battle, rushed to the city wall several times, and was driven down by Zhang Ren, and at the same time Zhuge Liang divided a group of men and horses, wanting to cut off the enemy's grain route, but was seen through by Pang Tong in time, and ordered Wei Yan to take the elite to intercept along the way, and the two sides had a contact battle outside Deyang City, and finally the Shu army was defeated and returned.
Zhuge Liang saw that the grain road was protected by Wei Yan, so he had to change his strategy and lead the water of the Dianjiang River to come, wanting to use the water potential to impact the city, while Pang Tong used the moat as the basis to lead the water downstream.
The battle line spread out little by little from Deyang, spread to the surrounding counties, Shuzhong since the period of Emperor Ling, it is the first time that such a large-scale battle has appeared, in just less than a month, Ba County a place, gathered nearly 200,000 horses on both sides, if you stand on the top of the mountain and look down during the day, you can see that the soldiers on both sides are attacking everywhere like ants.
At the beginning, Pang Tong was still holding Deyang, but with the opening of the show, although Zhuge Liang had no way to take Deyang, but the two sides quietly developed, it seemed that he wanted to isolate Deyang City, Pang Tong noticed it in time, simply gave up Deyang, spread the battle line to the entire Dongguang County, and fought from Dongguang County to Qianwei, the intensity of the war, that is, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong were both a little surprised.
At the beginning, the two sides also had their own tricks and wanted to fight a quick victory, but they soon found that it was useless, facing opponents of the same level, and they knew each other's roots, and more importantly, the army of nearly 200,000 people had been fully deployed at the moment, and the dogs and teeth were intertwined, you have me, I have you, forming an intertwined situation.
Often a little action on both sides is seen through by the opponent before they have time to show it.
Pang Tong wanted to attack with fire, but before he had time to lead the enemy deeper, Zhuge Liang over there had already seen through it, and the whole pressure did not give Pang Tong a chance, Zhuge Liang wanted to gather the water of the three rivers to flood Pang Tong, the order had just been issued, and there was no action, and Pang Tong over there had also found out, and began to seize the upstream with Zhuge Liang, and the two sides were entangled, and Zhuge Liang could not even drown his own people, so he could only give up.
After so many repeats, the two finally found out helplessly, the so-called tricks, in this case are a bit nonsense, and finally honestly returned to the most fundamental battle array, and then started a new round of fighting array, Zhuge Liang put out the eight formations, Pang Tong was in the river Tuluo book, set up a Tibetan array, Zhuge Liang is superior in the formation, and Pang Tong is weak, but it is not difficult to break the formation, and it ended in a draw again, but let the law of the spectators of the battle be amazed by the ability of the two, nearly 200,000 troops, In the hands of the two, they are about to play and blossom.
Wei Yan, Zhang Ren, Zhang Fei these people are in the game, but they are killing and forgetting to eat, nearly a month, both sides have won and lost, and the losses are about the same, although Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang have not yet decided the winner, but the soldiers have been fighting at high intensity for nearly a month, but they are a little unable to hold on, and the two sides can only temporarily truce and prepare for the next round of attack.
And the war in Shuzhong, with the beginning of the battle between the dragon and the phoenix, has gradually attracted the attention of the world, Luoyang Lu Bu, Xuchang's Cao Cao, and Liu Bei Sun Quan, who is fighting in Jingzhou, also began to pay attention to this battle, which is wonderful, even Lu Bu, Cao Cao, these people who have fought all their lives, can't help but be amazed.
