There are three scholars under the Lumen Academy, one of them Zhuge Kongming, the second Xu Yuanzhi, and the third is Pang Shiyuan, Zhuge Kongming and Xu Yuanzhi have gone to Shuchuan, and determined that Liu Bei is the one who can dominate the world and is worthy of assistance, and Pang Tong went to Jiangdong; Unlike Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu, Pang Tong is too far behind in appearance, and can be called one of the three ugly men in the late Han Dynasty, the other two are Zhang Song of Yizhou, and the other is Youheng of Qingzhou, who has been killed by Huang Zu a few years ago; It is precisely because this Pang Tong is ugly and arrogant, and he has a fight with the madman Youheng, so he is not very popular; As soon as he went to Jiangdong, he wanted to meet Sun Quan and be a general or something, but what was the result? I didn't even see each other, and I was driven away as a madman; After being heartbroken, Pang Tong came to Jiangxia to help Liu Qi escape the robbery, and heard that Li Yu, the first strategist under Cao Cao, was in Jingzhou City, so he couldn't hold back his excitement in his heart, and wanted to compete with Li Yu, only by defeating the most powerful enemy, he could make a name for himself!

Fame alone is not enough, because Pang Tong's appearance is very ugly, so he needs a stronger reputation than others to be able to occupy a place among the world's strategists! The fastest way to fame is to defeat the most powerful opponents! Li Yu is undoubtedly the best choice!

Liu Qi is a filial person, after Liu Biao's death, he went forward to mourn, but the result was that people wanted to kill him, and even the opportunity to worship his father's spiritual position was lost, and he hated it in his heart! I hate Cai and others for treating him like this, and I hate the sky for treating him unfairly!

When two frustrated men got together, they began to work together to make a career! So Liu Qi started the road of counterattack under the planning of Pang Tong, but in a few days, he used millions of money and grain in his hands to recruit 100,000 troops, all the way to Jingzhou City; Pang Tong told Liu Qi that he didn't have to care about anything else, as long as he took Jingzhou City, at that time, many scholars who supported the establishment of the elder and not the young would move closer to him, and all the scholars except the Cai clan would also defect, and taking Jingzhou City would be equivalent to taking the entire Jingxiang Nine Counties!

"Water warfare is too demanding for soldiers, especially for the army gathered in a hurry, the problem is even more serious, even the most basic arrangement of troops is a problem, don't worry, listen to me, immediately go to Jingling City!" , A group of soldiers in Jingzhou City continued to surge outward, and Li Yu said angrily at the city gate; Cai Mao cautiously asked: "This time, we have transferred 50,000 soldiers in Jingzhou City, and the city's air defense is extremely weak, what if Liu Qi sends Huang Zu to attack from the waterway?" You must know that Huang Zu's navy has been competing with Zhou Yu all year round, and it can be called elite! ”

"An-la! Ann! Li Yu waved his sleeves dissatisfiedly, got into the carriage and poked his head out: "What Liu Qi wants is the whole of Jingzhou, and there is definitely no shadow of Jiangdong people in this, that is to say, in terms of the position of treating Jiangdong Sun Quan and Zhou Yu, Liu Qi is the same as you!" Therefore, Huang Zu's sailors will definitely be more vigilant than ever to garrison the Jiangxia border pass! Don't be verbose! Walk you! ”

Cai Mao opened his mouth but only sighed in the end, and walked with Li Yu behind the carriage in a gloomy background, now, he can no longer control his own destiny, and the person who can control his life and death is the one in front

In the carriage, Li Yu was also closing his eyes and recuperating, his intuition told him that he was going to meet a powerful opponent next, and he would need to spend a lot of effort to be able to level the opponent; Jingling City has been captured, Liu Qi stood at the head of the city and smelled the smell of blood in the air, his face turned pale and a little unbearable, and he sighed for a long time: "Sir! Am I doing something wrong? The people who fought and died were all the people of Jingzhou! ”

Six-foot tall, short body type, triangular eyes, and sky-facing nose don't look like a good person, this is - "Phoenix Chick" Pang Tong, a man with both wisdom and talent, the only flaw should be this appearance; The hoarse voice: "Childe has no way back!" Liu Qi was silent and acquiesced; Our army's breakthrough of Jingling City is already the limit, and then we are waiting for the people we need to see appear! Pang Tong untied the wine gourd hanging from his waist, and traveled far away while drinking; Yes, it's them! They're all waiting for the people they need to meet!

Jingling City is more than 130 miles away from Jingzhou City, which is one of the few plains and open places in the east of Jingzhou where water traffic is most developed, and it is also a good decisive battle site chosen by Pang Tong, which is very in line with Li Yu's taste, because he is really not very good at water warfare, he likes the foot and horse battles of Jin Ge Iron Horse; The Jingzhou army led by Cai Mao was asked by Li Yu to camp thirty miles outside Jingling City, and accompanied Li Yu to survey the surrounding terrain, which was Li Yu's consistent style, and he was very concerned about the grasp of the terrain, which was also the reason why he was able to win many times; "Report ——! Liu Qi led people to challenge! Please answer before the battle! Cai Mao looked at Li Yu, and Li Yu Nunu mouthed: "Go and see!" ”

There are few war horses in the south, even in the rich Jingzhou, so many years of accumulation Liu Biao has only raised a cavalry force of 30,000 people, and now they are all hoarded in Changsha County, unlike the heroic and powerful in the north, which is 100,000 cavalry at every turn, and the momentum is huge; For this reason, only some generals in Jingzhou were qualified to ride war horses, and these war horses were not good horses, and the ones Li Yu used to pull the carriage were much stronger than the ones they ridden; In front of the two armies, Liu Qi was dressed in a brocade robe, a black-clothed scribe beside him, and several generals led 3,000 soldiers and horses behind him, waving flags, looking like singing, Li Yu squinted his eyes, he was not interested in Liu Qi, he was interested in the black-clothed scribe; This appearance is Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan! Interesting! Li Yu sneered twice and looked at Cai Mao, Cai Mao would ride his horse out of battle and shouted: "Don't be obsessed, leading the army to attack Jingzhou City will only make outsiders profitable!" ”

"!" , Li Yu covered his forehead, saying this is obviously a lack of confidence! Immediately stood on the wheel: "Go aside!" Liu Qi! Now Jingzhou has the surname Cao! The so-called person who knows the times is Junjie, how to think about it, you should ask the person next to you! You tell me? Phoenix chicks? ”

"Hahaha", Pang Tong looked up to the sky and smiled, and after the laughter, he was full of fighting spirit: "I have heard the name of Li Huaide's Yin Shi for a long time!" I want to learn a little bit below! Tomorrow we will compete! The winner is the king, the loser is Kou, it's as simple as that! ”

"I hope you won't disappoint me! Hehe! Li Yu laughed, and after a few short words, the two sides beat their horses back to the camp, and Li Yu said a little casually: "Cai Dudu! Do you know what I said yesterday to your sister Cai? ”

Suddenly, Cai Mao remembered Li Yu's words, whether Liu Cong or Liu Qi sat in Jingxiang, it didn't matter to Cao Cao's annexation of Jingzhou in the end, that is to say, Li Yu didn't care whether they were or not, whether it was morality or benevolence; Cai Mao wiped her cold sweat and arched her hand: "I know!" Know! Mr. Gaoyi! I can't thank you enough! ”

If Li Yu doesn't help him, he is very likely to be defeated here, if he is defeated, as soon as Jingzhou City is broken, their Cai clan will be killed by Liu Qi, who hates them, which is related to his life and death, even if there is a great dissatisfaction, Cai Mao has to pinch his nose and admit it; "This Pang Tong is the nephew of Pang Degong of Lumen Academy, and their uncle and nephew are like father and son, or we," a general suggested in a whisper; Li Yu pursed his mouth: "Good idea!" But if Pound Gong is captured, it will take three days to make a round trip, right? It's not as good as it is in time! I'm not against this scheme, it's just that he will make the scholars of Jingzhou feel hatred! ”

"Why don't we send troops tonight and attack the camp at night? Otherwise, in a head-on battle, the opponent's enemy army is twice as large as mine, which may be disadvantageous! ", someone else suggested; Who is Pang Tong? Tianzhong Wizard, it can be said that he is not inferior to me in terms of resourcefulness, he can't think of it? Your plan is to beat the dog with meat buns and never return! All right! I have my own plans, you can just prepare your arms for war! ”

After returning to the city, Liu Qi looked at Pang Tong: "Li Yu is fierce and powerful, is Mr. really confident that he can defeat him?" Pang Tongyi smiled: "No! I just wanted to give it a try! There are some things I still have to say to Childe! You have a kindness to me, I can't help but repay it! ”

"You say!" , Liu Qi smiled heartily, and added: "You shouldn't be here with me!" I don't deserve your talent and intelligence! ”

Pang Tong shook his head and was noncommittal: "What I want to say is that Li Yu is right, the current Jingzhou is surrounded by enemies on three sides in order to continue to survive only by completely surrendering to one side, and Cao Cao is the best choice, this battle, whether we win or lose!"

What's more, Li Yu's voice is so powerful that the generals of our army have heard of it, and they will think that he represents Cao Cao's meaning, and it is easy to rebel, if it appears, I am afraid it will not be good! Childe needs to be on guard at all times! ”

Liu Qi looked up at the sky and grinned: "Actually, I am already a person who will die soon!" It doesn't matter if you die one day earlier or one day later, I just want to go to Jingzhou City to pay tribute to my father! Mr! Suppose I die! Please help me bury me next to my father! I will hand over some of my most heartfelt men to you, and if anything happens to me, perhaps you can use this opportunity to turn against you! ”

Pang Tong was silent, to be honest, he was still very grateful to Liu Qi for his kindness, but for him, Pang Tong could unceremoniously say that he was a mediocre person, but now it seems that a mediocre person is not necessarily a mediocre person, and Liu Qi is not without merit; After bowing three times, Pang Tong thanked Liu Qi for his trust in his own way, and after getting up, Pang Tong: "Tomorrow I will put down the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array, and Cao Jun"
