NO.316 How many princes are left in the world?

Hearing Pang Shanmin's words, Xu Shu almost wanted to go crazy, he had calculated Jing Xiang a few times before, but Pang Shanmin's prejudice now was so big, so Xu Shu couldn't help but scold him in his heart.

The question raised by Pang Shanmin made it difficult for Xu Shu to answer, in fact, the current situation in Xiliang, although the princes of these families can deduce a rough idea, but Xu Shu is in it, and his feelings are more profound than others.

Ma Teng, Han Sui now has Chang'an, it is difficult to share wealth, and it is only a matter of time before they part ways, this messenger, Xiliang originally wanted to send three people to go together, in addition to Liu Bei, Ma Teng's messenger, Han Sui also prepared Liang Xing, one of the eight horsemen of the banner, and the two went together, but when he left, Liang Xing was stopped by Ma Chao, just because Ma Teng was afraid of Han Sui secretly connected with Jingxiang, if he could get the support of Jingxiang's grain, straw and wealth, Han Sui also had the opportunity to replace Ma Teng in Xiliang.

Although Xu Shu is devoted to Liu Bei, Ma Teng has to make Xu Shu the main envoy, the reason is because there are very few people in Xiliang who can speak well, but in Ma Teng's eyes, Liu Bei is much more benevolent than Han Sui, and Liu Bei's status as an imperial uncle has greater use value, so these days let Liu Bei occupy more power in Chang'an, and Ma Teng also let it go.

So before Xu Shu came to Jingxiang, he made a plan with Liu Bei, first joined forces with Ma Teng, hindered the development of Han Sui, and then slowly plotted against Ma Teng's forces when Han Sui was not in trouble.

It's just that now Pang Shanmin's words seem to be breaking Xu Shu's heart, Xu Shu heard it, how can he not be annoyed?

After thinking about it for a while, Xu Shu sighed lightly and said to Pang Shanmin: "Xu is the general of Dai Shoucheng, and he discussed the alliance with the mountain people. ”

Pang Shanmin nodded slightly, seeing that although Xu Shu's expression was as usual, the anger in his eyes wanted to be dazzling, Pang Shanmin saw this, sneered in his heart, and said tightly: "The lack of grain has always been a big problem in the Xiliang Army. ”

When Xu Shu heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said to Pang Shanmin: "Regarding the matter of Tucao, we should discuss it after Mr. Fengxiao leaves." ”

"Pang Mou is just asking......" Pang Shanmin saw that Xu Shu was almost out of shape, and couldn't help laughing: "Besides, my Jingxiang and General Shoucheng are not bordering, if you transport grain and grass, I am afraid it will be extremely difficult." ”

Xu Shu gritted his teeth, and when he heard Pang Shanmin's words, Xu Shu knew that what Pang Shanmin said before was ridiculed by him, and he suppressed the anger in his heart, Xu Shu said to Pang Shanmin: "Since the general has thought about supporting my Xiliang grain and grass, that is to say, the general has agreed to form an alliance with my Xiliang?" ”

"In principle, Pang agreed." Pang Shanmin said, Xu Shu was puzzled, and said to Pang Shanmin: "What is the principle of the general, you might as well say it, Xu is in Jingxiang this time, and he can also help the general's staff." ”

"Xiliang Iron Cavalry, back and forth like the wind, combat power can not be underestimated, Pang also hopes to have this strong reinforcement, each other to help, but after the previous Shoucheng general captured Chang'an, looted for three days, the people were ruined because of this, and the wives were scattered, perhaps before General Shoucheng sent Yuan Zhi to Jingxiang, he realized the previous act, there were many mistakes, and now he has begun to settle the people of Chang'an, but the Qiang people have no good strategy to settle the people, Pang has pity on the people of Chang'an, and wants to give the people food and clothing for several months. Alleviate the grievances of the people in the city. Pang Shanmin said a word, Xu Shu couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said to Pang Shanmin excitedly: "Is this serious? ”

"Although Yuan Zhi has some entanglements with Pang, this is a personal grudge, but the people are innocent, Jingxiang is rich, and these grains and clothes are not bad." Pang Shanmin said that, Xu Shu thought that Pang Shanmin was embarrassed before, and he pretended to pose in front of Guo Jia, but he heard Pang Shanmin say again: "It's just that Yuan Zhi should know that this grain and clothes are given to the people by Pang, not to you Xiliang military horses, after Kong Ming's wedding, Pang will mobilize materials to make the caravan go to Chang'an, but if Pang knows that if this material does not reach the hands of the people, and the alliance with Xiliang, he will give up immediately!" The big husband has nothing to do, and Pang doesn't want the people of the alliance to be robbers who plunder the people! ”

When Xu Shu heard this, he was stunned for a while, nodded, Pang Shanmin saw Xu Shu responding, and said to Xu Shu: "Pang has already said everything that should be said, and I hope that Yuan Zhi will listen to it in his heart, Yuan Zhi will not underestimate it, I will Jing Xiang in the eyes of the West Cool." ”

"Xu will definitely order the Qiang people not to be embarrassed by the people." After Xu Shu said that, Pang Shanmin smiled slightly and said: "Yuan Zhi has achieved his mind now, and Pang is not strong enough to drink, so Yuan Zhi can leave directly." ”

Xu Shu saw that Pang Shanmin had issued an order to expel the guest, his expression was sneering, since Yuan Xi, he also followed in the footsteps of Yuan Xi, and was expelled at the banquet, the only thing that comforted Xu Shu was that Pang Shanmin seemed to have some scruples, and did not make him lose face, thinking of this, Xu Shu gave up his hand to say goodbye to Pang Shanmin and others, and went to the post house with Ma Dai.

As soon as Xu Shu left, only Guo Jia was left in the hall, Zhou Yu and several people, who acted on Pang Shanmin before, both of them thought that Pang Shanmin was the hand of the fake Xu Shu, and showed favor to him, and had a secret discussion with Guo Jia before, this Chang'an in Guo Jia's eyes, sooner or later Cao Cao obtained, Pang Shanmin was willing to give up his wealth and settle the people, and Cao Cao rebuilt Chang'an in the future, it was also a lot easier, Guo Jia believed that with Pang Shanmin's eyes among the princes, if Xu Shu used Jingxiang's money and food, clothing, and horses for Xiliang military horses, once Pang Shanmin was aware, he would inevitably turn his face with him.

And Zhou Yu thought that Pang Shanmin helped Xiliang, supplemented by financial support, can solve Ma Teng, Liu Bei and others, Xiliang iron cavalry combat power is unparalleled, but this daily use, the money and food consumed are very much, if Pang Shanmin can make up for the weakness of Xiliang, between Ma Teng and Cao Cao, the battle for Chang'an, is also a big war, which is very beneficial to contain Cao Cao's military strength, so that Jiangdong into Hefei, Shouchun, and expand the territory in the north.

Just thinking of this, Zhou Yu also has some bad feelings in his heart, Pang Shanmin still has surplus money to help Xiliang Anmin, but he refuses to give Jiangdong some benefits, that is, Jiangdong wants to plunder Cao Cao's land, Pang Shanmin does not have the slightest support here, Zhou Yu drank the wine in the cup, and said to Pang Shanmin: "My Jiangdong and the mountain people are still in-laws, why are the mountain people not on my Jiangdong, generous?" ”

"Gong Jin, this is a joke." Pang Shanmin chuckled when he heard this, and said to Zhou Yu: "It's not that Pang is not generous enough, but that you Jiangdong can support yourself, why should Pang help Zhongmou feed the people under his rule?" Ming people don't say dark words, in Pang's eyes, the situation of the world's heroes is gradually coming to an end, and those who can seek the world in the future are only the three princes in the hall, all of whom are ambitious and sweep away the troubled times. ”

"Hemeng Tucao, but the mountain people are so defeated...... Zhou Yu said, glanced at Pang Shanmin angrily, but saw Guo Jia smiled and said: "What the mountain people said is extremely true, originally there were more than ten princes in the world, but now there are only six of them, this group of male separatism is time to end, but the remaining three princes, in Guo's opinion, is not a good thing......

"If one is dominant, the other two will inevitably be connected, and this is what Feng Xiao means?" When Pang Shanmin heard this, he couldn't help laughing and said: "It's too early to worry about these things now, Fengxiao is now afraid that he can't care about such a trivial matter." ”

"Guo is very excited, the former Guandu Prime Minister can win, but now the situation is dangerous, but the Prime Minister is not without a chance to win, if the mountain people think that they can let go of the battle with the Prime Minister, this battle must be taken over by Guo!" Guo Jia's words, no concessions, Zhou Yu saw the two arguing, wishing that the two of them would fight more intensely, what Pang Shanmin said before, Zhou Yu listened to it in his heart, and now Jiangdong is among the three princes, has fallen behind, if Pang Shanmin can fight with Cao Cao, it will take a long time, this is also the best opportunity for Jiangdong to catch up.

At noon, Pang Shanmin waited for the two to leave drunk, and then entered the back hall with Gan Ning, and on the top of the book, Pang Shanmin wrote several military orders, ordering all the troops to be stationed in the generals of the army in Jingxiang counties, and went to Changsha to discuss together.

Seeing that Pang Shanmin was so eager, Gan Ning felt strange in his heart, and said to Pang Shanmin: "The time to use the army is this autumn, and the mountain people are taking precautions, although it is a good thing, but now it is convenient for the court to order generals, is it too early?" ”

"It's just that the generals are summoned to congratulate Kong Ming on the marriage." When Pang Shanmin heard Gan Ning's words, he couldn't help laughing and said: "In addition, let the generals of our army know that this time Pang and Kong Ming are planning, let's discuss together how to seize the land of Hanzhong." ”

"Hanzhong?" When Gan Ning heard this, he was shocked, glanced at Pang Shanmin, and saw that Pang Shanmin did not seem to be drunk, and said to Pang Shanmin: "The mountain people made a mistake, when the mountain people discussed with the princes before, the land they asked for was Runan!" ”

"Xingba didn't hear it wrong, it wasn't a mistake by Pang." Pang Shanmin said it, and said with a slight smile: "For example, everyone thinks that Pang wants to die with Cao Cao today, but who knows that the current situation is designed by Pang and Guo Jia, and Feng Xiao wants to cede half of Runan and give me Jingxiang, Pang should also cooperate with him and play this big show!" ”

Pang Shanmin was stunned when he saw Gan Ning, and sighed with a smile: "It's just that Pang doesn't know that after this battle, there are still a few princes left in the world......"

Gan Ning came back to his senses, was speechless for a long time, and after a long time, he said to Pang Shanmin: "The mountain people informed Gan of this confidential matter, and wanted to make Gan the leading general?" ”

"What Xingba is good at, it is a water war, and in our army, Xingba has made outstanding achievements, this opportunity to make meritorious contributions can be handed over to others to ......" Pang Shanmin said, but Gan Ning shook his head and said: "Mountain people should not underestimate Gan, water war Gan can be successful, land war can also be, Gan has not been to the land of Xichuan now, the conquest of Hanzhong is the time when the mountain people are people, how can Gan be backward?" ”

"That Xingba will go to receive Runan at that time, and I will be able to leave Xingba!" When Pang Shanmin saw that Gan Ning wanted to go to Xichuan to get involved in the battle of Hanzhong, he couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "If Xingba leaves, who will be in charge of my naval army?" ”

"Isn't Su Fei still in the camp?" Gan Ning looked anxious, and said to Pang Shanmin: "If you are a brother, you have to say more, and I agreed to Gan's request, in the previous war, Gan never disappointed the mountain people, and the attack on Hanzhong will be the same, Gan will definitely succeed if he goes!" ”
