Chapter 401: Pang Tong Arrives
Chengdu, Lu Bu led 200,000 main forces have arrived at the first city of Bashu, the camp will be the entire Chengdu city, as the saying goes: siege the city for the bottom, attack the heart for the top, the Xiliang army is not in a hurry to attack the city, Lu Bu is hoping to force Liu Zhang to surrender with huge pressure, just when Lu Bu led the army to Chengdu, Xu Jing of Bajun County, who was stationed in Luo County, surrendered Lu Bu first, not far from the city, Lu Bu inspected along the city under the escort of hundreds of guards and more than a dozen generals.
Chengdu City will not be the largest city in Bashu, the city wall is tall and strong, the city head is wide, you can gallop on the city wall, on the city wall, there are dense perforations. Visiting holes and stone slides, and built with a horse face, there is a moat in the Western Zhou Dynasty, about four zhang wide, it is the widest moat that Lu Bu has ever seen, even the original Tiger Prison Xiongguan can not be compared with it, if you want to cross the moat to attack the city, ordinary planks can not be built at all, it seems that Liu Yan has really made a lot of effort in order for his descendants to rule Bashu for a long time.
"How deep is this moat?" Lu Bu stood on the hill, raised his whip and pointed to the moat of Chengdu City, turned his head to a scribe who was more than half a hundred years old and asked, this scribe is about eight feet tall, with a clear face, gray hair hanging down to his chest, and his sleeve robe is surging during his walk, quite a little bit of the appearance of a fairy wind, this person is Xu Jing, the county of Ba County, Xu Jing was famous for his evaluation of characters together with his younger brother Xu Shao in his early years, he was very old in the imperial court, he was displaced in the troubled times, he voted for Wang Lang, went to Jiaozhou, and finally came to Yizhou, once served as the Taishou of Ba County, Because he was squeezed out by the local Shilin of Bashu, he was gradually snubbed by Liu Yan and Liu Zhang, and it was also an idle position to serve as the Cheng of Shu County.
Lu Bu had a lot of respect for him, because Jia Xu told him that as long as he could get the approval of Xu Jing and Li Yan, he would basically have the support of Dongzhou Shilin, so Lu Bu showed that he would reuse him. As long as the city in front of him can be broken, the entire Yizhou will be planted with the "Lu" flag, and when Xu Jing wants any official position, just ask for it like Lu Bu, which makes Xu Jing have a kind of excitement of being an old man.
He was having a good time talking with Jia Xu when he suddenly heard Lu Bu asking about the situation of the moat. Immediately replied: "I only cleaned up the silt this spring, about a zhang or so."
"Mr. Wenxiu, if you form a naval army in Bashu, where do you think it would be better?" Lu Bu wants to take Chengdu, now it is like a bag, it is only a matter of time before he conquers it, after conquering Chengdu, Lu Bu set the next target in Jingzhou, and then Jiangdong. However, no matter which of these two places is attacked, there must be a naval army, and the formation of a naval army is the most important thing now, and there is no delay for a moment.
Xu Jing was just about to answer, but was interrupted by a rapid sound of horses' hooves, and everyone turned their heads to look, only to see a fast horse galloping from the horizon. The fast horse galloped straight to Lu Bu, and the herald on the horse immediately surrendered his hand: "Lord Qi." Xu joined the army and came back, and he was waiting in the big tent at the moment! ”
"Back to camp!" Lu Bu took a deep breath, raised the horsewhip in his hand, and led everyone to gallop towards the Chinese army camp. And let Cheng Lian accompany him, Lu Bu instructed Cheng Lian before leaving, if he met the Wolong and Phoenix Chicks, see what their attitude was, and if they were willing to come to Yizhou. Everything is fine, if they don't want to come, then kill them to prevent future troubles, and now that I hear that Xu Shu has come back from Jingzhou, there must be news that there is a sleeping dragon and phoenix
"You're really hot here!" Pang Tong shook the pu fan to take advantage of the coolness, opened his mouth and complained, and then felt that it was too hot, so he simply took off his Confucian shirt directly, wearing only a middle coat, after doing this, Pang Tong nodded comfortably, Xu Shu personally brought him a bowl of steaming sour plum soup, Pang Tong took the wine and took a sip: "This is what you made yourself?" ”
"yes, didn't you say it's hot? I'm going to make you a bowl! Xu Shu replied.
Pang Tong helplessly handed the wine jue back: "You drink it yourself, I still want to live a few more years!" ”
Xu Shu took the sour plum soup without changing his color, and drank a bowl of sour plum soup, Pang Tong blocked his eyes with his hands and tilted his head to the side, he had drunk many sour plum soups, and only this bowl was salty in the world.
"Where's your father-in-law?" Pang Tongyi waited until Xu Shu finished drinking before asking.
"I've already sent someone to call, you wait!"
"Hey, do you think he'll be scared when he sees me?" Pang Tong patted his knee leisurely, Xu Shu knelt opposite him, his hands carefully covered with the blanket in front of his knees, he had never shown this kind of respect in front of Jia Xu.
The big tent fell into silence, Xu Shu never knew how to greet each other, he talked to others, they were all explaining things, when the matter was finished, he had nothing to say, Pang Tong shined in front of the big bean, looking at an unknown in the distant sky outside the tent, and did not say a word, his brain was running at high speed all the time, more than when the lower body was running at high speed, this kind of quietness often meant that a new storm was being born, he knew that Lu Bu had been blocked outside Chengdu, he now had a plan, but he could break Chengdu in a battle.
Without warning, Pang Tong suddenly turned his head to Xu Shu: "Zhuge Liang, what do you think?" ”
Xu Shu didn't hesitate or hesitate, and immediately replied: "You are Mr. Shuijing's beloved disciples, one is a phoenix, and the other is Wolong, you should know better than me, why do you ask me?" ”
Pang Tong shrugged: "Very smart and decisive, it's a pity that he doesn't look down on your father-in-law!" ”
"It's very pertinent, but this guy's temperament is too stable and not suitable for Wen Hou" Xu Shu tilted his head: "You must know where he is!" ”
"If you tell you, he won't live, I know, if I don't agree to come to Chengdu with you, the one who goes to find me with you will definitely kill me without hesitation" Pang Tong rolled his eyelids and snorted at Cheng Lian, the guard standing outside the tent: "According to Kong Ming's temperament, even if he kills him, he may not come, if he dies, Mr. Shui Jing will definitely blame me!" ”
"It's okay if you don't tell me" Xu Shu waved his hand, as if he was interested: "Wolong and Phoenix Chick, although it is a continuous thought, but you have always wanted to surpass him, I don't want to get involved in the matter between the two of you!" ”
"Now that the north has been decided, Cao Cao's next target is Jingzhou, Jingzhou is full of Shilin, the forces are intertwined, Kong Ming stays there, is he waiting for Cao Cao?" Xu Shu rarely showed a smug smile like a falcon.
"There is a person in Kong Ming's eyes, maybe more suitable than Cao Cao" Pang Tong grinned, revealing his signature sunny smile, and patted Xu Shu on the shoulder.
Xu Shu didn't answer, suddenly there was a hurried footstep outside, both of them closed their mouths, and soon there was a conversation outside, and then I saw a dignified man walk into the big tent, followed by an old man who was in his old age, and the old man was still wrapped in a white mink fur in the summer.
