That is, the day after Jinfan settled in Xiangyang, Wang Chong received a piece of information that made him very annoyed.

Fangling ...... fell, Liu Bei did not consume a single soldier, and successfully occupied Fangling.

"What the hell is going on?"

Wang Chong glanced at Kuai Liang inadvertently, and although he didn't say anything, it had already made the latter feel cold.

If the truth of the matter is really that Kuai Qi took the initiative to open the city gate and take refuge in Liu Bei, then Wang Chong's attitude towards their Kuai family will definitely undergo a 360-degree change, and he is very likely to be kicked out of the Jinfan core circle that he has just entered.

"Check, this matter must be thoroughly investigated!" Kuai Liang tightened his fists hidden in his sleeve robe, and his face, which was not much bloody, became even more bleak and terrifying.

Maybe for Wang Chong, all he needs is a result, but for their Kuai family, they must figure out the ins and outs of the matter, whether Kuai Qi really took refuge in Liu Bei, or if there is another reason, no matter what, they need to give Wang Chong and Jinfan a clear explanation, otherwise they will have a very difficult time under Jinfan in the future.

Kuai conscience hurriedly said goodbye and left, Wang Chong, Liu Ye and Lu Su glanced at each other and asked, "What do you think?" ”

Liu Ye thought for a while and said, "Looking at Zirou's reaction, this matter should have nothing to do with their Kuai family!" ”

"I think so too!" Lu Su nodded and agreed, "If the Kuai family doesn't really take refuge, how can I Jinfan easily enter Jingzhou?" Liu Bei will not flee to Fangling like a lost dog now. ”

Wang Chong chuckled and said, "How can I not know what the two of you said? However, the Kuai family, as a local wealthy family with Jing Xiang's hands and eyes, is still very necessary to give them a sense of crisis from time to time, if they are too indulgent, who knows if they will be as big as Liu Biao when he was in power? ”

No matter what the truth about the fall of Fangling was, Wang Chong actually never thought of condemning the Kuai family for this matter, his purpose was just to take the opportunity to beat them.

Liu Ye shook his head and said with a smile: "The lord can't help but underestimate his deterrent power to the family, look at Zirou's reaction just now." But I was really scared, if there is really a family that is stupid to think that the main guild is as easy to control as Liu Biao, then they are not far from the end of the world. ”

Wang Chong smiled noncommittally. waved his hand and said: "Okay, let's get down to business, the fall of Fangling means that it will be very difficult for us to exterminate Liu Bei." But if I don't get rid of it, I am really unwilling in my heart, I don't know Ziyang and Zijing, what tricks can I teach? ”

Lu Su Zhengse said: "My lord, Fangling is mountainous and narrow, my Jinfan's military advantage cannot be used at all, and our control over Jingzhou is still too weak, and now I am afraid that there will still be many counties that do not respect our orders." ”

Speaking of this, Lu Su paused. opened his mouth to persuade: "Lord, Liu Bei, Xiao Er, our current priority is to stabilize the situation in Jingzhou as soon as possible, as for the attack on Fangling, there is no need to rush at all!" ”

Hearing Lu Su's words, Liu Ye couldn't help but shake his head speechlessly, Lu Su is still so upright and rigid.

In fact, Lu Su said this. How could Wang Chong not know in his heart? But he still asked, which means that what he hoped for was to hear a different answer.

After thinking about it, Liu Ye sorted out his thoughts in his mind. said to Wang Chong: "Lord, although what Zijing said is not unreasonable, I think we can do it without delay!" ”

"Oh? Is Ziyang's words serious? Wang Chong's eyes lit up, and he was immediately interested.

Liu Ye smiled and said: "Liu Beixi's purpose in entering Fangling is nothing more than to seize Hanzhong. The lord is desperate to exterminate it, but he is only worried that he will take the opportunity to become bigger, and it will be difficult to clean up in the future, in this case, why don't we completely trap Liu Bei in Fangling and Shangyong, the two projectile places, let him do nothing, and when my Jinfan stabilizes the situation in Jingzhou, he can be wiped out in the palm of his hand! ”

Wang Chong asked: "How should it be implemented?" ”

Liu Ye replied: "This matter is easy, Liu Bei has few soldiers, and it is extremely difficult to take Hanzhong with his family alone, so he will definitely seek Liu Zhang's help. ”

Wang Chong nodded thoughtfully, tilted his head and asked Lu Su, "Zijing, what do you think of Ziyang's plan?" ”

Lu Su pondered for a moment, shook his head and spit out two words: "It's not proper!" ”

Liu Ye and Lu Su were good friends, and they knew that they would never talk about it, so they arched their hands and asked, "Please also ask Zijing for advice!" ”

Lu Su replied: "The lord is stationed in Ziguitun, which will definitely attract Liu Zhang's attention too early, and it will be extremely unfavorable for the lord to take Shuchuan west in the future. ”

Liu Ye argued: "Zijing's words are wrong, no matter whether the lord mentions the army in Zigui in advance or not, Liu Zhang will also be wary of us, the two should not have much to do with each other, right?" ”

"No, Liu Zhang has no ambitions, is cowardly and incompetent, and only seeks a corner of safety, in order to avoid our misunderstanding, as long as we don't take the initiative to provoke, his people will not dare to take the lead in increasing troops to Padang, so that in the future, we only need to attack with lightning speed, and Padang will naturally be at our fingertips!" Lu Su persuaded bitterly, "Lord, don't lose a big one because of a small one!" ”

"This ......" For a while, Wang Chong was upset, and after a long time, he sighed helplessly, "That's it, for the time being, according to Zijing's words, let Liu Bei go first!" ”

"Lord!" At this moment, Tai Shixiang walked in quickly from outside the hall, handed over a letter, and said in a low voice, "Nanyang military situation!" ”

"Nanyang military intelligence?" Wang Chong frowned when he heard this, opened the letter and glanced at it, and the corners of his mouth suddenly hooked up with a sneer of disdain, "Tsk, this Cao Ren is really good at robbing with fire!" ”

"Lord, what happened?" Liu Ye couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked.

Wang Chong squinted his eyes and said indifferently: "It's nothing, the letter just said that after Cao Ren took the opportunity to capture Xinye, now with the general Niu Jin as the vanguard, he led 3,000 soldiers and horses straight to Fancheng!" ”

"Fancheng?" Hearing what Wang Chong said, Liu Ye couldn't help grinning, "Greed is not enough to swallow elephants, is he forcing us Jinfan to go to war with them?" ”

If Cao Ren just attacked Xinye, whether it was Liu Ye or Wang Chong, he wouldn't care too much, but Fancheng is different, it is only separated from Xiangyang by a Han River, such a military location, Jinfan will not give up.

Wang Chong said with a smile: "Originally, Cao Ren thought that we were fighting with Liu Bei and the Sandpiper in Xiangyang. They would have taken the opportunity to make a profit, but unfortunately he would never have dreamed that Liu Bei would take the initiative to let out of the city, if Cao Ren knew about it. Even if he borrowed ten guts, he didn't dare to come and rob Fancheng. ”

"How is the lord going to deal with this matter?"

Wang Chong thought for a while and decided: "Forget it, now is not the time to start a war with Cao Cao, so I will send someone over to warn Cao Ren first." Let him hurry back to Wancheng, otherwise don't blame me for Jinfan's tens of thousands of troops going north to Nanyang! ”

—————————————————————————————

The sixth year of Jian'an, June 25.

Although Cao Ren, who was warned by Wang Chong, was angry, he also knew that with his own soldiers and horses, he was by no means an opponent of Jinfan, so he had to order Niu Jin to withdraw his troops and return to Wancheng.

At the same time, Wang Chong promoted Huo Jun, the county lieutenant of Yicheng, to the commander of Deng County, and led 3,000 troops to enter Fancheng.

Huo Jun is a general of the Cai family, and Wang Chong promoted him, on the one hand, to appease the heart of the Cai family. On the other hand, it is also because Huo Jun Yunwen Yunwu is indeed very capable.

It was also on this day that the Kuai family, who had been worried for two whole days, finally investigated the real reason for the fall of Fangling.

"Zhuge Liang!?" When he learned the truth of the matter from Kuai Liang's mouth, Wang Chong's face changed, and a trace of anger suddenly flashed between his eyebrows, "This kid really doesn't know the times!" ”

In fact, in the past two years, Wang Chong has been relying on Zhuge Jin's relationship. hoped to persuade Zhuge Liang to come to serve under him, but whether it was Zhuge Jin or the handwritten letters written by himself, they all sank into the sea after being sent to Xiangyang, and over time. Wang Chong gradually forgot about it, after all, there are many talents under Jinfan's account, and there is really no shortage of Zhuge Liang for him.

But who would have thought that this kid would finally be invested in Liu Bei's account as in history, and the time was advanced by six years.

Zhuge Liang's father, Zhuge Liang. He has a total of three sons and two daughters, among these people, in addition to the eldest brother Zhuge Jin, the rest of them have already settled in Xiangyang, two of the daughters, the second daughter married Pang Shanmin, the son of Pang Degong, and the husband of the eldest daughter is now Fangling Taishou Kuaiqi.

The reason why Zhuge Liang was able to take Fang Ling without blood was with the help of this uncle-uncle relationship with Kuai Qi.

At that time, no one knew the news that Zhuge Liang went out of the mountain to assist Liu Bei, so he easily took Chen Zhi and more than ten white-eared elite soldiers in disguise into Fangling, and when he saw Kuaiqi, Chen Zhi captured it with a thunderous force and opened the city gate with a false order, and then five hundred white-eared elite soldiers swarmed in, and Fangling also fell into the hands of Liu Bei.

"This kid really did everything he could to win Fangling!" Wang Chong sighed with emotion, and he didn't know what Zhuge Liang would do with his sister and brother-in-law afterwards, and how the latter two would feel about the younger brother who used them?

failed to leave Zhuge Liang in Jinfan to serve, Wang Chong actually didn't have too many regrets in his heart, everyone has their own ambitions, without him Zhuge Liang, Jinfan is still the powerful Jinfan, and with him Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei still can't change the reality that he is a lost dog.

However, when it came to Zhuge Liang, Wang Chong also subconsciously remembered the 'phoenix' Pang Tong who was as famous as him, and the other three of Zhuge Four Friends, all of whom were rare talents.

"It seems that I should take the time to go to Lumen Mountain and visit Pang Degong and Mr. Shui Jing!"

On the second day, Wang Chong took Wang Shuang, Tai Shixiang and more than ten guards out of Xiangyang and rode to Lumen Mountain.

Lumen Mountain and Xiangyang are very close, separated by more than ten miles, Wang Chong and his entourage only took half an hour to arrive at the foot of Lumen Mountain.

Wang Chong dismounted and looked up, only to see the mountains in front of him, clouds and mist, which made people fascinated, and it was really a holy place for students with elegant scenery.

In order not to disturb the tranquility of the academy, Wang Chong left his guards at the foot of the mountain to guard the horses, and only brought Wang Shuang and Tai Shixiang with him.

The altitude of Lumen Mountain is more than 300 meters, and the academy is built on the mountainside, Wang Chong is rarely leisurely, but he is not in a hurry to visit, so while climbing the stairs, while enjoying the surrounding scenery, walking very slowly.

At that time, the scorching sun rose into the sky, the weather was getting hotter, there was a pavilion beside the mountain road, Wang Chong and the three of them were about to go in to take a rest, and suddenly saw a young man in his early twenties coming down from the mountain, only to see that this person was short in stature, with thick eyebrows and nose, black face and short hair, but he looked very peculiar.

Wang Chong's heart moved, and he probably knew the identity of the person who came.

Seeing three strangers who had never seen before coming down the mountain, the young man was obviously stunned for a moment, and the deacon asked: "The three of them are very raw, I don't know if they came to Lumen Mountain to study or enjoy the scenery?" ”

Wang Chong smiled and asked in return, "What do you think, sir?" ”

The young man shook his head and said, "If you want me to say, it's neither!" ”

"Oh?" Wang Chong was surprised, "Could it be that Mr. Fei already knows the intention of my arrival?" ”

The young man smiled confidently, glanced up at the dazzling sky, and suggested, "Why don't you enter the pavilion and talk to each other again?" ”

Wang Chong nodded and said, "It's okay!" ”

In the pavilion, Wang Chong sat opposite the young man, while Wang Shuang and Tai Shixiang stood behind Wang Chong on the left and right.

Wang Chong said: "To know the intention, as a prophet, Mr. knows the meaning of our coming, and I am afraid that he has already guessed who I am." ”

The young man smiled: "At present, the soldiers in Xiangyang are in chaos, and few people dare to go out at this time, and although the three of them are dressed in civilian clothes, they have a fierce killing aura on their bodies, and they are obviously from the army, so the scope is naturally reduced a lot." ”

"I'm afraid that this alone is not enough to confirm my identity, right?"

"Jingzhou Xinding, everything is busy, except for the general, who will have this leisure to visit my Lumen Mountain?"

Wang Chong smiled: "Sir, are you saying that I don't do my job?" ”

"The husband is a gentleman, as long as people make the best use of their talents, why bother to do everything?"

"It seems that the gentleman has a good impression of me!"

The young man was not hypocritical, and said directly: "Actually, I had the intention to serve the general in the morning, but I just had no way." ”

Wang Chongxi said: "In this case, Mr. is willing to be my Jinfan in the future?" ”

The young man got up, took a step back, and respectfully bowed to Wang Chong: "If you want to, don't dare to invite you, Pang Tong, meet the lord!" ”

Wang Chong stepped forward to help Pang Tong up, and said excitedly: "I often hear that 'Wolong' and 'Phoenix Chick' can settle the world, and now with the help of Shiyuan, my Jinfan will definitely be like a tiger with wings!" ”

Pang Tong asked in surprise: "The lord also hears my name?" ”

Wang Chong said with a smile: "It's not a secret, Ben Jiang is here for Shiyuan today!" (To be continued.) )
