Guo Jia's painting of this cake did arouse Pang Shanmin's great interest.

Ruosun, Cao two families according to Qingzhou, for Jing Xiang, such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to fall into the ground, the previous battle of Qingzhou, although Zhou Yu won, Jiangdong damage, is not small, now fighting, Pang Shanmin is also not optimistic that Zhou Yu can resolve Cao Cao, Guo Jia and others, aggressive offensive.

In Pang Shanmin's view, Zhou Yu and Guo Jia are both wise men, but there is still a slight gap, and Jiangdong's greater disadvantage is that at the moment Cao Cao and Jing Xiang are fighting, and there is no Liu Bei's worries, once Cao Cao makes up his mind to recapture Qingzhou, the offensive will inevitably be like wildfire, and it will be difficult to resist.

Today, even the most powerful Jing Xiang does not dare to easily choose to fight on two fronts, with one enemy and two enemies, not to mention Jiangdong, which is the weakest among the three princes.

Sending Guo Jia away, Pang Shanmin rushed to Zhuge Liang's house, and when he arrived at Zhuge Liang's house, Pang Shanmin told Zhuge Liang everything Guo Jia said before, but he didn't expect Zhuge Liang to have no joy.

"Kong Ming, do you think that there is fraud in this policy of filial piety?" After Pang Shanmin said, Zhuge Liang nodded, and said to Pang Shanmin: "Mr. Fengxiao is the mastermind of the Central Plains, no matter how it is designed, this beneficiary should be Cao Cao. ”

When Pang Shanmin heard this, he was silent, and after a while. put away the eagerness on his face, and said to Zhuge Liang: "I want to hear it in detail!" ”

Zhuge Liang nodded calmly, and said slowly: "Brother should know that although the country is big, it will die if it is warlike; Although the world is safe, it will be dangerous to forget the war! Half a month ago, my brother went to Chang'an. He also left tens of thousands of military horses for Shiyuan to open up the Silk Road, and in recent days. Jingxiang's finances are mostly inclined to Yongliang, if the war starts again. Brother can ensure the military needs of the army and will not be affected? ”

If you attack Jiangdong, it must be a big battle with the power of several states under the rule of Pang Shanmin, Pang Shanmin only thought about this military consumption, so he shuddered, although Jingxiang is rich, but it can't withstand such consumption, not to mention that one of the prerequisites for attacking Jiangdong must meet Guo Jia's request for borrowing grain.

Seeing that Pang Shanmin had calmed down, Zhuge Liang sighed lightly and said, "There is another thing that also worries Liang in his heart, before my brother; Win after battle. All are built on the basis of step-by-step battalions, although I Jingxiang has a lot of battles, but my brother always raises troops, the purpose is clear, this time to attack Jiangdong. It's just that the elder brother was bewitched by that Guo Jia, and he made a temporary decision, could it be that the elder brother is really completely sure that he will win with one blow? Brother, don't forget, although this Jiangdong is weak, it is also a prince! ”

Pang Shanmin heard Zhuge Liang's words. suddenly woke up, and secretly said in his heart: If it weren't for the fact that I am now accustomed to something that is difficult to decide, I would ask Kong Ming for more benefits, once I should go down to Guo Jia and rashly raise troops, this conquest of Jiangdong is a little careless, and Jingxiang is in a good situation, and I may really respond to the sentence "belligerent will die"!

Unconsciously, his back was wet with cold sweat, Pang Shanmin bowed and said to Zhuge Liang: "If it weren't for Kong Ming, Pang would definitely make a big mistake!" ”

Zhuge Liang was overjoyed when he saw Pang Shanmin wake up, and hurriedly turned sideways to avoid Pang Shanmin's big gift, and said to Pang Shanmin: "Brother, don't be so ......"

Pang Shanmin was not hypocritical when he heard this, and said to Zhuge Liang: "What Kong Ming said before, this is a trick of filial piety, but if we wait to conquer Jiangdong, what good will it do to him Cao Cao?" ”

"Qingzhou can be decided by a war, this is one of them." Zhuge Liang sighed when he heard this: "Cao Cao is now anxious about moving the capital and Qingzhou, and he wants to borrow more external forces. ”…,

"Pang has also thought about this." Pang Shanmin said, he couldn't help frowning and said: "But just for one Qingzhou, it's not worth Guo Jia's plan." ”

"In addition, maybe Mr. Fengxiao is quite confident in the current strength of the Central Plains." When Zhuge Liang heard this, he smiled indifferently and said: "If you get Jiangdong, with Cao Cao's ambition, you won't accept it when you see it, and before the direction of Lujiang was also sharpened Huo Huo, with the ability of Zhang Wenyuan in Hefei, if you have no worries, how can you allow this Jiangdong to be arrogant?" ”

"I see!" When Pang Shanmin heard this, he suddenly realized.

It turns out that Guo Jia's ultimate goal is to reap the benefits of the fisherman!

If the people of Pangshan raise troops in Jiangdong, Sun Quan will definitely shrink his forces and strictly guard against the hinterland of Jiangdong, Jiangdong is exposed to the land in Jiangbei, and it is difficult to take care of Jiangdong, which is in danger of destruction, and if Cao Cao uses troops at this time, he will not need to spend too much effort at all.

It is easy to collect Qingzhou and get Yangzhou...... Guo Jia's plan is good!

Jing Xiang contributed money and efforts, Cao Cao picked up cheap, where did such a good thing come from in the world?

If it weren't for Kong Ming's timely mention, Pang Shanmin would have received Guo Jia's "advice", I am afraid that he would have been able to transfer troops and act as a thug for Cao Cao to expand his territory, and whether he can take Jiangdong in the end is still between the two!

Thinking of this, Pang Shanmin secretly hated in his heart, and muttered in his mouth: "Fengxiao, this old boy is uneasy and kind!" I still want to borrow money and food from Pang, it's a dream! ”

Zhuge Liang chuckled when he heard this, and said to Pang Shanmin: "Brother, this money and grain can still be borrowed, if Mr. Fengxiao promises to demote the defeated army in Qingzhou and hand it over to me Jingxiang for disposal, it also shows that Mr. Fengxiao is very sincere!" ”

"Kong Ming can be sure to persuade Gongjin to surrender?" When Pang Shanmin heard Zhuge Liang's words, his eyes lit up, and then he sighed: "I thought that Liu Bei had escaped, but he had to close the door, but now I look at it again, and the past is unbearable......"

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are still concerned about Liu Bei, especially the Jingxiang Qunchen who lived near the bamboo house with Pang Shanmin, and now they all know that Zhang Fei is simply a muddy person, since he moved into the bamboo forest, it is difficult to find the past clean around the bamboo forest.

Zhuge Liang heard this, but said: "Now that Jiangdong has sent people to Qingzhou to garrison, there are many Jiangdong elites, even if they can't get all of them, only one or two of them, they can also strengthen my Jingxiang's momentum, and now Jiangdong is still useful for my brother's career, and my brother is unwilling to be attacked by the two princes together, so how can Cao Cao be willing to face Jingxiang and Jiangdong's connection?" ”

"Just to tie up Jiangdong, can you afford to make such a setback?" Pang Shanmin was quite puzzled when he heard this, and said to Zhuge Liang: "Now the relationship between Jingxiang and Jiangdong is not bad!" ”

"It's far from intimacy." Zhuge Liang smiled when he heard this: "Even if Gongjin can survive in Qingzhou, if he doesn't surrender to me Jingxiang and send him back to Jiangdong, will Sun Quan be grateful to his brother?" Such a favor is that in the future, his brother asked him to attack Cao Cao in order to repay him, and Sun Quan should not give up in order to protect Jiangdong!
