Xiling City, East City Gate.

On a wide galloping road connecting the city and the outside of the city, hundreds of soldiers lined up on the left and right, holding a torch in their hands, and the light emitted by the torch filled the city and the city.

It seems to illuminate the place as bright as daylight.

"Hurry, hurry!"

"Move the grain first, then move the rest!"

"These are soldiers, put crossbow arrows on them, be careful, don't fall!"

Under the city gate, a long queue has been formed, with the assistance of thousands of soldiers and horses, one by one people pushing carts of goods, towards the outside of the city and quickly walked out.

Most of these goods consisted of grain, then weapons, and finally gold, silver, and jewelry.

"It seems that Kong Ming didn't succeed in one blow, and the fight was fierce enough!"

Above the city, Pang Tong's figure stood on the highest point, raised his head, looked ahead, and looked at the city on the west side in the distance, where the raging fire had shone on the infinite darkness.

This fire symbolizes that the fierce battle between Zhuge Liang and Huang Zu has reached the most fierce point, and the flames are soaring into the sky, as if half of the city has been burned.

The raging flames lit up the entire Xiling City.

"Report to your lordship, Chen Zhuo's soldiers and horses stationed in the south and north cities have returned to defense!" A scout came to report: "But Huang Hao, the guard next to Huang Zu, returned to the water, and now Guan Yu is besieging Huang Zu with his soldiers!" ”

"Very well, keep inquiring!" Pang Tong squinted his eyes and said, "If you want to know the latest battle situation, send someone to report it in a quarter of an hour!" ”

"No!"

The scout nodded and stepped back.

"Shi Yuan, as you expected, Huang Zu is really in the urn!" Zhao Ji, the head of the Zhao family, stood beside Pang Tong and said with a smile.

"I can't control them. Huang Zu will die, we have to speed up our actions now, if Zhuge Liang reacts, we will escape, Uncle Zhao, can the people below hurry up? ”

Pang Tong came back to his senses. Looking at the transport team under the city, he asked with some concern.

No one knows when the battle in the Governor's Mansion will end, but their time is running out, at most an hour or two, and as soon as it dawns, they must be evacuated.

"Shi Yuan, a certain has already organized tens of thousands of people to carry it. But Huang Zu has accumulated too many food weapons over the years, and it is difficult to complete it for a while! ”

Zhao Ji said with a slightly wry smile.

In the entire Xiling, Zhao Ji can mobilize so many people to carry it, but Huang Zu has bullied the people in recent years, increased taxes, and the amount of food and weapons obtained is still above his estimate.

"Move as much as you can!"

Pang Tong also knew. Zhao Ji didn't work hard, but tried his best. But Huang Zu ruled the whole Jiangxia over the years, and there were too many things that were greedy, and it was impossible to move them all out of the city.

"Uncle Zhao, before dawn, you must withdraw from Xiling City completely. If you can't move it away, a fire will destroy it, and you won't leave a grain of rice for Zhuge Kongming! ”

"Wouldn't it be too wasteful?" Zhao Ji was a little unbearable.

"It's a bit of a waste, but even if it's a waste, you can't keep Zhuge Kongming."

Pang Tong squinted. There was a gleam in his eyes, and he said: "After dawn, this city will be the world controlled by Zhuge Liang, and they will not let go of the Zhao family, so the Zhao family must also withdraw from Xiling!" ”

"Do you have to withdraw?"

"You have already joined the state of Wu, and you still pin your hopes on Zhuge Liang's benevolence?" Pang Tong said: "Once Zhuge Kongming knows that it is you who helped us transport the grain out of the city, what will he do to the Zhao family?" ”

"Got it!"

There was a hint of boldness in Zhao Ji's eyes: "Let the Zhao family withdraw from the city immediately!" ”

"Uncle Zhao, don't worry, I promise that I will let you return to Xiling!" Pang Tong said with a smile.

"Shi Yuan, there is something I don't understand!"

Zhao Ji pondered for a moment, and looked at Pang Tong with some confusion.

"Uncle wants to ask Shiyuan, why don't you take the opportunity to take Xiling in one fell swoop?" Pang Tong smiled indifferently, as if he had seen through Zhao Ji's state of mind, and asked himself directly for him.

"Hmm!"

Zhao Ji nodded and said: "Now is a good opportunity, according to a certain family, you have already rebelled against several families, and the strength in the city does not have to be Zhuge Liang They are weak, take advantage of both defeats and take Xiling in one sentence, isn't it?" ”

"Uncle, don't forget it, Zhuge Kongming still has more than 10,000 troops outside the city!" Pang Tong shook his head, looking at the firelight in the distance, and a deep artistic conception flickered in it.

"Taking Xiling now, for a certain person, or for Wu Guo, it is a thing that outweighs the loss!"

There are more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in the city, and now Huang Hao Chen's soldiers and horses have been concentrated in the battle of Huang Zu and Liu Qi, and Su Fei also controls 3,000 soldiers and horses, which is a force.

If they want to take Xiling City, plus the thousand soldiers and thousands of servants controlled by the Zhao family, they have a chance.

But this is not in the interests of the state of Wu.

If Su Fei's soldiers and horses take Xiling, they will inevitably face the soldiers and horses outside the city, and this scene will be a little difficult to play at that time.

Xiling must be fought, not only because of Zhuge Liang, but also because of Huangshi and Huang Shot, who are about to lead the troops back.

Yellow shot is the most important thing.

Pang Tong regarded Zhao Ji as his own person, so he patiently analyzed him: "As soon as Huang Zu dies, the Jiangxia Huang clan will collapse, Huang Zu has a son Huang Zhu, this person is very important." ”

"You want to fight for yellow shots?" Zhao Ji suddenly understood, he had to admire Pang Tong's distantness, if Xiling was a game of chess, Pang Tong would probably be one of the opponents.

Huang Zu is just a chess piece at best, and the Zhao family is also one of them, he thinks about it, he feels a little chill in his heart, and when he faces the figure in front of him, he can't help but be a little in awe.

"Since the 20,000 soldiers and horses under the command of Huangshi are the elite of the Jiangxia Naval Army, they are about to return to Xiling, and Xiling City is now dominated by Liu Qi!"

The corners of Pang Tong's mouth outlined a smile with a strong interest, and said: "This fight is the civil strife in Chu!" ”

That's what you want.

A Xiling is nothing, even Jiangxia is nothing, the Chu State is the most important.

"Shi Yuan's plan is profound!"

Zhao Ji looked at this young man who was one round younger than him, and bowed his hand to show respect, and said, "Once Huang Jie and Liu Qi are confronted. What was triggered was the civil strife of the Chu State, which would hit the prestige of the Chu State and lay the foundation for the Wu State to seize Jiangxia, high! ”

"It's just a ploy!"

Pang Tong was not proud of this, but had a touch of worry, and said: "Things won't go so smoothly." A certain can take the lead, because a certain is in the dark, and Zhuge Kongming is in the light, but after tonight, Zhuge Kongming will grasp the general trend of Xiling, and a certain family will also be exposed, and when he wants to deal with us, it will be very easy! ”

"Is Zhuge Liang really so terrifying?" When Zhao Ji heard this, he was a little puzzled.

"Don't underestimate this person. To be honest, no matter how perfect a plan is, if it is Zhuge Liang, a certain heart is also beating a drum! ”

Pang Tong's words are not to increase the ambition of others and kill his own prestige, but that he knows Zhuge Liang too well.

If he really calculates, he may not be as good as Zhuge Liang.

When Zhao Ji heard Pang Tong's words, he shivered, and Pang Tong still made him feel awe. can be evaluated by Pang Tongrusi, thinking that the horror of this person makes him a little unable to make up for it.

"Jiangxia's game of chess. We also have a pawn! Pang Tong thought for a moment, squinted his eyes, and whispered.

"Shi Yuan is talking about Shaxian City!"

When Zhao Ji heard this, he blurted out.

"Huang Zu's soldiers and horses are not small!"

Pang Tong nodded, his eyes had a sharp light, and he said coldly: "There are more than 20,000 elite soldiers in Xiling City. More than 20,000 elite soldiers are stationed in the Yangtze River Water Village defending Chaisang of Wu State, and there are 10,000 elite soldiers and horses, which are stationed in Shaxian City and face tens of thousands of sailors in Dongting Lake! ”

Sha Xian's soldiers and horses were actually Huang Zu's naval army training camp, and most of Huang Zu's naval army were trained from Dongting Lake.

"The lord of Shaxian City will be Deng Long. This person can be regarded as having a little friendship with him! Zhao Ji thought about it, a decisive light burst out in his eyes, and he volunteered to get up, and said: "You can try to communicate with him, let him turn his troops around, and help Wu Guo!" ”

"If you can recruit him under your command, Wu will win this battle!"

Pang Tong was very satisfied with Zhao Ji's attitude, he issued a task, and Zhao Ji volunteered, those are two different things, this sentence can be regarded as making him completely agree with Zhao Ji.

"Don't mention Wu Guo!" Pang Tong thought for a while and said, "You advise him to help Huang Jie and recapture Xiling, so it is easier to convince!" ”

"Understand!"

Zhao Ji nodded.

――――――――――――――――――――――

The sun rises in the east and shines brightly.

Xiling City.

The night of fierce fighting has come to an end.

In the west of the city, a newly completed mansion of the Governor is now in ruins, and the entire mansion is a mess with a radius of 300 meters, and it has been completely burned.

The fire had been extinguished, but the smoke was steaming around, and small flames were still flickering in the middle of the ruins.

A general, holding a knife in one hand and a head in the other, strode out of the fire.

His robes were covered with traces of burning, and one by one, a face like a heavy jujube was now as black as charcoal, and the green silk was hanging and scattered.

In the raging fire, Guan Yu fought all night with one knife and one sword, and finally cut off Huang Zu's head.

"Lord Zhuge , Huang Zu is a member of the Huang clan after all, and his body can be handed over to a certain family for burial!" Huang Hao's eyes looked at the head of Huang Zu, who was obviously a little dead, sighed, and said pleadingly.

"Yes!"

Zhuge Liang thought about it and nodded, burying Huang Zu is not a big deal, the person is already dead, and there is nothing good for him.

"Thank you, Lord Zhuge !" Huang Hao said gratefully.

"General Guan!"

"In!"

"At this moment, race against time, soldiers and horses outside the city, enter the city quickly!" Zhuge Liang's eyes were filled with a touch of essence, and he said: "Huangshi's soldiers and horses are about to return, before that, a certain must stabilize Xiling City!" ”

To deal with Huangshi, he had already thought of a plan.

"Good!" Guan Yu nodded, pulled out a horse by himself, he quickly turned over, and walked straight out of the city with a long knife.

"Huang Hao, how much grain has Huang Zu accumulated in the city?" Zhuge Liang asked.

"Huang Zu is greedy, and the people of Jiangxia starve to death every year, but the food he hoards in the city is countless!" Huang Hao followed Huang Zu's side, and naturally knew Huang Zu's people best.

"My lord, it's not good!"

At this time, a soldier came in in a hurry and bowed his head and said: "The granary, armory, and Huang Zu's mansion in the city have all been looted!" ”

"What?"

When Huang Hao heard this, he was shocked, his eyes suddenly widened, and a dazzling light rose to the sky.

"Pang Shiyuan, what a yellow finch behind!"

Zhuge Liang was also a little surprised, but when he calmed down and thought about it, he suddenly thought of Pang Tong, who had always made him uneasy, and it was obvious that Pang Tong was secretly shadowing him. (To be continued......)
