Zhuge Liang originally thought that with Pang Shanmin's steady behavior in the past, after Liu Qi came to Changsha, Pang Shanmin would first gather military power, rectify the rule of officials, and run Changsha City like an iron bucket, and then go to slowly plan the remaining three counties in Jingnan, but what he never expected was that when the eldest prince first arrived in Changsha, Pang Shanmin actually planned to pick his son and leave.

and went to the north to ask for official positions in the imperial court for his classmates and friends, although Zhuge Liang admired Pang Shanmin's talent very much, but he was not optimistic that Pang Shanmin would be able to get his wish.

"Brother Shanmin, now I am equal to a thousand people in Changsha, if it is only for self-protection, it is not difficult, why should my brother risk his life?"

Zhuge Liang frowned slightly, and said persuadly: "If the elder brother wants to blackmail the eldest prince to order Jingnan, why not show his talent in front of the eldest prince now and get it reused?" ”

"It is most appropriate for this matter to be left to Kong Ming."

Pang Shanmin saw Zhuge Liang's persuasion, sighed and said: "For the rest of the month, Guangyuan Gongwei and others, although they have lived comfortably in the bamboo forest, I know that they are restless, and I am also anxious when I see that my classmates and friends cannot display their ambitions. ”

"But if the gentleman does not erect a dangerous wall, the war in the north is not clear now......"

"I've made up my mind." Pang Shanmin shook his head with a smile, signaled Zhuge Liang to chat while walking, the two walked all the way to the city gate, Pang Shanmin said slowly: "I know that Kong Ming has great ambitions, and the affairs of Jingnan are handed over to Kong Ming and Shiyuan, and I don't have to worry about it anymore, although we can control Changsha, but with the strength we have now, even if it is to resist the barbarian invasion, I am afraid that it will not be enough, although you and Shiyuan are full of wisdom, but it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, this time I went to the north, in addition to seeking a future for the people of Guangyuan, I also want to find a talented general......"

"Since Cao Mengde's recruitment order, the north is virtuous and virtuous in the wild, I'm afraid there are ......not many" Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly when he heard this: "I know that my brother's move is to wait for me to wait for the way out in the future, but there are priorities, why not go to the north after I take control of Jingnan?" ”

"I'm afraid it's too late to ......" Pang Shanmin shook his head, and said earnestly: "Now bamboo paper is a thing, if it is managed properly, it can be used to cover the recruitment expenses of Changsha, and now General Jingnan, in addition to General Huang Lao, should be Wei Yan, this person is quite heroic, for our industry, has always been careful to help, if Kong Ming is in charge of the military power in Changsha, should treat this person well, as for going to the north, Kong Ming does not need to worry, this action, I have a plan in my heart." ”

"If my brother doesn't tell me everything he thinks in his heart, I won't let him go!" Zhuge Liang said solemnly: "I think even if it is Guangyuan and Gongwei, he will not let his brother risk his life for the sake of his official position!" ”

"Kong Ming has been in Xiangyang for a long time, have you heard of the three major water banks of the Yangtze River?"

"Gan Ning, Jiang Qin, Zhou Tai?" Zhuge Liang was stunned when he heard this, glanced at Pang Shanmin suspiciously, and said: "Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai have now been attached to Jiangdong, isn't my brother going for that Gan Ning?" Just a water coward, why is my brother here? ”

"Don't underestimate that Gan Xingba, although this person is a general under Huang Zu, he must not be reused, if we sincerely invite and promise a heavy position, this person will be used by us." Pang Shanmin chuckled and said: "In my heart, this Jinfan Ganning is better than Zhang Yan's ability in Montenegro!" ”

"Can you compare Zhang Yan?"

Zhuge Liang was shocked when he heard this.

Now the battle of Guandu in Hebei is still in full swing, and where Yuan Cao is based, Zhang Yan of Montenegro, who controls the remnants of 100,000 yellow turbans, has become an important force in the victory and defeat of both sides, and now whether it is Yuan Shao or Cao Cao, they all hope that Zhang Yan can be used for their own purposes, Zhang Yan's troops are many generals, and Zhang Yan himself is also quite capable of commanding the army.

And Gan Ning is in Pang Shanmin's heart, he can actually compare to this person, Zhuge Liang looked at Pang Shanmin blankly for a long time, Pang Shanmin grinned, and said: "I once said when I was with the academy, don't underestimate the heroes of the world, now I only have one general in Changsha, but Jingnan has four counties, three counties in addition to Changsha, adjacent to Shanyue, if there is no supreme general, resist the barbarians, only rely on the calculation of the kings, tired and tired to death you......"

"Then why don't you just go to Jiangxia?" Zhuge Liang thought for a moment and continued to persuade: "If that Gan Ning comes to vote sincerely, we will treat it well, what is the purpose of my brother going to the Northland?" Just ask for an official position, we just need to plan slowly, and it will come to fruition in the future, and we can make promises! ”

"Then wait until the Year of the Monkey?" Pang Shanmin smiled bitterly when he heard this, "These days, seeing Guangyuan Gongwei and all the people like pearls covered in dust, I am also anxious in my heart, not to mention that this time I went to the north, Kong Ming does not need to worry about the safety of his brother, now Han Xuan has gone to Xu Du, to vote for his own brother, when I was in Changsha, I have a lot of points, and it is not difficult to seek refuge from Han Xuan at that time, and the former general Zhang Liao in the Wenhou array, this person is loyal and righteous, and everyone knows it, if he knows that Lu Bu's wife and daughter are now fine, he will thank us for his kindness and help each other!" ”

"Brother, isn't he going to go to Xudu, but also to go to Naguandu?!"

Zhuge Liang's eyes widened, with an incomprehensible look, and said to Pang Shanmin: "No, my brother can't go, it's too dangerous!" ”

"After asking for an official position, I always have to meet the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, otherwise it is unreasonable, now we have to base ourselves in Jingnan, with the help of the prestige of this Prime Minister Cao, than just using the name of the eldest prince, I am afraid it is much more effective!" Pang Shanmin waved his hand, ignoring Zhuge Liang's admonition at all, and said to Zhuge Liang: "As long as I act secretly, even if there is a little danger, I will be able to turn the danger into a disaster......

"Brother has made up his mind?" Zhuge Liang knew that it was useless to persuade again, so he sighed and said: "If I inform Shi Yuan and the others about this, I'm afraid that my brother won't be able to go to the north!" ”

"Shiyuan, they can't persuade me, it's just that my wife and daughter are too troublesome to explain......"

Pang Shanmin smiled bitterly: "I still need Kong Ming to help me in this matter, Kong Ming's defense is unparalleled, and it is not difficult to persuade the two women!" ”

"Why should I help you!" Zhuge Liang laughed angrily: "I didn't want my brother to travel to the north in the first place!" ”

"For the sake of our future, you must help!" Pang Shanmin's expression was sincere, and Zhuge Liang was not allowed to refute: "Now the battle situation in Guandu, although it is confusing, but Yuan Cao has been based on each other for a long time, Cao Cao's momentum has been achieved, if Cao Cao only had a five-point chance of winning before, now if he wants to defeat Yuan Shao, there is an eight-point possibility, and Yan Liangwen of Hebei Siting Zhu has been killed by General Cao Ying, and now Yuan Shao's momentum has declined, if Cao Cao fights quickly, I will never be as smooth as it is now." ”

"Even if it doesn't go well, it's only a matter of time before we control Jingnan!" Zhuge Liang wanted to persuade again, but Pang Shanmin smiled bitterly: "Time, what we lack most is time......

"Kong Ming didn't expect to win, he expected to lose first, this is human nature, but has Kong Ming ever thought about it, although this trip to the north, although it is a bit risky, but if it happens, we want to sit in Jingnan, it is as easy as a hand!"
