More than ten miles south of Xiangyang City, there is a mountain, called 'Lumen Mountain', standing on the side of the Han River, facing each other across the river from the majestic Da Xian Mountain.

In the third year of Jian'an, Liu Biao set up a college, learned officials, and sought to be proficient in Confucianism, so he lived in Xiangyang at that time, and Sima Hui, a famous scholar in Yingchuan, who was known as "Mr. Shuijing", opened a class in Lumen Mountain to teach apprentices, and Pang Degong, a famous scholar in Jingxiang, also lived in seclusion here.

There are not many students in Lumenshan Middle School, but they are all famous young talents in Jingxiang, although they have not yet become famous, they are quite concerned about the current affairs of the world, so they often get together to express their opinions and argue endlessly.

On this day, a young man in a cyan Confucian shirt ran into the classroom panting, came to the place where the three or five students gathered, and whispered: "Hey, have you heard? In the past few days, the Xiangyang army has been frequently mobilized, and I am afraid that it is going to go on an expedition! ”

"Oh? This is interesting, so, you might as well guess, who do we plan to use troops against as a state pastor? The person who spoke was a young man with thick eyebrows and a nose, a black face and short hair, and an extremely ugly appearance.

The person on the left side of the ugly young man frowned and said: "Jingzhou is located in the center of the Han Dynasty, extending in all directions, and there are strong enemies on all sides, how can you guess the intention of the state pastor at this time?" ”

The young man who had just run in immediately retorted: "Gongwei's words are wrong, there is no war in Yizhou and Hanzhong at present, and the soldiers are good enough to eat, so these two can be the first to be abandoned, so the choice of the state pastor is nothing more than Nanyang, Yuzhang, and Jiaozhou!" ”

Meng Jian smiled and asked: "Then according to Zhou Ping's opinion, where is the state pastor most likely to attack?" ”

Cui Jun thought for a while and said, "Although Jin Fan and Cao Gong are currently at war, they have no time to take care of each other. However, these two are strong, and with the character of the state pastor, I am afraid that they will not dare to rashly open the crime. Therefore, the state pastor sent troops this time, and the most likely thing is to attack Jiaozhou in the south! ”

Hearing Cui Jun's analysis, the ugly young man couldn't help but laugh and shook his head, Cui Jun was slightly stunned, and asked, "Does Fei Shiyuan have a different opinion?" ”

Pang Tong said with a smile: "Zhou Ping only knows one and doesn't know the other, our state pastor is ambitious and suspicious, ambitious but indecisive. There are few soldiers in Jiaozhou, and it is not difficult to take it, but this is a wild place. The state pastor may not be in his eyes, so in the eyes of the Tong, the possibility of the state pastor attacking Nanyang and Yuzhang is afraid that it is far above Jiaozhou! ”

Meng Jian shook his head and said, "Now Cao Gong is serving the Son of Heaven to order not to be subordinate. Officials from all over Jingzhou praised his wisdom. Regarded as orthodox, how could the state pastor dare to risk the world's disapproval to attack Nanyang in the north? ”

Pang Tong shrugged his shoulders: "So, the place where the state pastor is most likely to attack should be Yuzhang!" ”

Meng Jian was noncommittal, turned to look at a tall, elegant and dignified young man, and asked, "Kong Ming." What do you think? ”

Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "What Shiyuan said is what Liang thinks!" ”

Meng Jiandao: "I heard that Kong Ming's brother is serving as a driver in Jinfan. If Zhou Mu really chose to attack Yuzhang, wouldn't Kong Ming be worried at all? ”

Zhuge Liang said indifferently: "Don't say that my brother is still in Huainan, it is difficult to be affected by the war, even if there are really three long and two short, it is his own choice, how can others influence it?" ”

Pang Tong played with taste: "Kong Ming doesn't seem to be optimistic that Jinfan can succeed!" ”

Zhuge Liang sneered: "Jinfan, thief, Kouye, looking at what he has done, there is banditry everywhere, and in just one year, he has offended almost all the families in the world, how can such a lawless thug succeed?" ”

Pang Tong argued: "This is nothing more than forced by the situation, otherwise, how can Jinfan rise rapidly?" In fact, in the eyes of the unification, the general of Zhengdong is brave and good at fighting, and he is decisive in killing, but he is quite heroic! ”

"Today, the Han Dynasty is full of gate valves, Jinfan goes against the sky, it seems to be beautiful, but in fact the dark tide is surging, in the end, I am afraid that it will become a family, and a family will be defeated!"

"Hearing is false, seeing is believing, Kong Ming still don't make a premature conclusion, now that Sun Ce is dead, Jiangdong's defeat is imminent, as long as General Zhengdong can stabilize Jiangdong's interior and rule the river, he will be invincible for at least a few decades, or does Kong Ming think that Zhou Mu's dispatch of troops this time can really pose a threat to Jinfan?"

Zhuge Liang said proudly: "This is nothing more than to see the state pastor make such a choice, if it is commanded by Liang, Yu Zhang can be sent down with a snap of his fingers!" ”

Pang Tong said disdainfully: "It's a pity that you are just a poor scholar now!" ”

"Guan Zhong also had a humble business before, and Han Xintong had also suffered the humiliation of his crotch before he led a million heroes.

Pang Tong sneered: "Soaring into the sky? Uncle Tong once jokingly called you 'Wolong', do you really think you are a dragon? If today's pattern has been decided, you look down on Jinfan, and scold Cao Gong as a thief, then among the princes in the world, who can succeed? Yuan Shao, Liu Biao, or Liu Zhang? Or is it Liu Xuande, who is dead but not stiff, and has no fixed place like duckweed? ”

"Is the pattern of the world really decided? Not necessarily, right? Zhuge Liang shook his head and smiled, "Now Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are fighting in the north, the victory is not divided, Jinfan and Sun are fighting in the southeast, the situation is treacherous, and Liu Biao is old and Liu Zhang is incompetent, so in Liang's view, there are opportunities everywhere!" ”

Pang Tongyi was stunned and asked, "What?" Could it be that Kong Ming plans to go out of the mountain? ”

Zhuge Liang only smiled and said nothing.

"Cut, pretend to be a ghost!" Pang Tong pursed his lips, too lazy to deal with this tricky guy, and asked Shi Tao, who had never spoken before, "Guangyuan, why haven't you seen Yuan Zhi these days?" ”

Shi Tao said: "Shi Yuan doesn't know? Yuan Zhi had already packed his bags and left a few days earlier! ”

"Gone?" Pang Tong frowned, "North or south?" ”

"Go north!"

Pang Tong was puzzled: "Could it be that Yuan Fei plans to defect to Cao Cao?" ”

Shi Tao said with a smile: "Shi Yuan doesn't know, now Liu Xuande has gone south to Runan!" ”

"Liu Bei!?" Pang Tongyi was shocked and glanced at Zhuge Liang deeply, "Why are you all so optimistic about this person?" I can't see anything special about this person! ”

Meng Jiandao: "Liu Xuande's name of benevolence and righteousness is known all over the world, and he is also a relative of the Han family. ”

"Gongwei also has this heart?"

Meng Jian shook his head: "I'm more optimistic about Cao Mengde!" ”

Pang Tong sighed: "It seems that although we are friends today, I am afraid that he will be his own master in the future!" ”

Shi Tao said: "The situation in the world is changing, we are still studying, it is too early to discuss this!" ”

Pang Tong looked at Zhuge Liang meaningfully: "Yes, when the war situation between the north and the southeast is stable, I'm afraid that Jingzhou will be chaotic again!" ”

Zhuge Liang smiled: "Why is Shiyuan looking at Liang?" This is Yuan Zhi's own decision! ”

Pang Tongyi rolled his eyes and scolded with a smile: "A raccoon dog! ”

With the wisdom of Pang Tong, it can be seen that Runan is not a place to stay for a long time, Xu Shu went to find Liu Bei, undoubtedly planning to lead this wolf to Jingzhou, and now Liu Biao is old, the eldest son Liu Qi is mediocre, the second son Liu Cong is young, Liu Bei is complemented by Xu Shu, this Jingzhou, I am afraid that sooner or later it will be played by this Liu Bei.
