In Nanyang Wancheng, Liu Bei is still waiting for news of Pang Tong in the Taishou Mansion, the current situation is not as good as day by day, Liu Bei himself has begun to cut back on food and clothing, that is because there is not much food and grass, and if it goes on like this for a month, Liu Bei will definitely have no food available, and Liu Bei will really be finished at that time.

So now Liu Bei can be regarded as living like a year, and now he has got another bad news, that is, Liu Biao of Jingzhou and Liu Mang of Yangzhou have formed an alliance, this news is simply a thunderstorm, and he Liu Bei has been blown up to the core.

It can be said that Liu Bei in Yuzhou and Liu Mang in Yangzhou are a pair of difficult brothers, both of them are a combination of lack of grain and grass, but Liu Mang wants grain and grass for the people below, but Liu Bei is just for his army.

"No news yet!" Liu Bei walked back and forth anxiously in the Taishou Mansion, they were all waiting for the news of Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan, Pang Tong could be regarded as going with the hope of the people of Yuzhou.

"Returning to the lord, no!" Jian Yong, who was on the side, hugged his fist at Liu Bei and said, he is in charge of intelligence, and the intelligence officers in Jingzhou have basically taught Pang Tong to use, but now Pang Tong is fleeing with them, where is there any information coming over, that is, the information about the alliance between Liu Biao in Jingzhou and Liu Mang in Yangzhou was bought by him Jian Yong and others, otherwise Liu Bei and they really don't know anything.

The current Jian Yong is not as casual in front of Liu Bei as before, because Liu Bei already has an opinion on Jian Yong, and the last time he guessed that Sun Qian was the enemy lurking, it had already made Liu Bei disgusted, so the current Jian Yong was still a character with few words in front of Liu Bei.

"Nope. No, there was just no news all day! Your men are dead! I give you a thousand gold every year, and now you have no news for me! "Liu Bei is simply hot, this is about to burn his eyebrows, but there is still no intelligence, no, he is about to become blind.

"Damn it!" Jian Yong lowered his head, he didn't argue, he couldn't say that he gave all the intelligence officers to Pang Tong Pang Shiyuan, this order was given by you Liu Bei. Jian Yong did not argue. Liu Bei couldn't take Jian Yong out of anger.

I could only snort coldly.

"Lord, it seems that this military advisor is no longer reliable!" Sun Ce looked at the scene in front of him and smiled slightly, Pang Tong did useless work, this is what Sun Qian wants to see the most. Only Pang Tong is useless. This can make his grandson good.

"Huh?!" Liu Bei suddenly frowned. Jian Yong stood aside and looked at Sun Qian with a look of jealousy.

The discord between Sun Qian and Pang Tong, Liu Bei didn't say that the fool naturally knew about it, but now he should be in the same boat instead of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge.

"My lord. Our army's food and grass are already insufficient, and it is too late to wait for the news of the military division, so we should plan as soon as possible, my lord! Sun Gan is also smart, he no longer speaks ill of Pang Tong directly in front of Liu Bei, such words can only make Liu Bei disgusted with himself in front of Liu Bei, thinking that he is a villain who can only make small reports, and now Sun Gan's way of knocking on the side is to remind Liu Bei all the time that he Sun Gan's role and Pang Tong's uselessness, or stop at the point.

The military advisor is unreliable, it can really be reminiscent of Pianpian, is Pang Tong unreliable and surrendered to the enemy, or something else, one word has many meanings.

"It's time to plan early!" Liu Bei listened to Sun Ce's words and also changed, it turned out that Sun Qian was not slandering Pang Tong but asking him to make plans as soon as possible, it was he who misunderstood him, so subconsciously Liu Bei had a grudge against Pang Tong, you said that you Pang Tong wants people to ask people for money and money, Jingzhou is the home of your Pang family, it stands to reason that the grain and grass should have arrived a long time ago, but now it is burning eyebrows, not to mention the grain and grass, there is not even a shadow of grain and grass.

"My lord! Our army's grain and grass is already insufficient, except for the Xiliang Iron Cavalry is still supplying sufficient grain and grass for two meals a day, the other garrisons have reduced the food supply, although this policy can slow down the use of food and grass in our army, but it is not a long-term solution, and we can only borrow grain and grass from the people in half a month! Sun Qian stood up and explained to Liu Bei.

"I want to borrow grain and grass again!" Liu Bei felt uncomfortable when he heard this, why did Liu Bei have so many people to support him, it was because Liu Bei had a reputation for benevolence and righteousness, and those people were singing his good stories about Liu Bei, so Liu Bei was able to recruit soldiers and horses, and only then did the generals and ministers come to take refuge, but this and the people borrowed grain and grass will affect their reputation, how much grain can the people have in their hands, they have already borrowed it once, and the people borrowed it for the sake of your reputation, so how long will it take to borrow it.

Isn't this a clear display that made Liu Bei's reputation ruined.

"The lord is considerate of the people, but if the lord can't wait to borrow food, then wait to starve to death!" Sun Qian said unceremoniously to Liu Bei.

"Although the reputation of the lord's benevolence and righteousness is important, once the lord starves to death, what is the use of the lord's reputation! If there is food sent by the military advisor, naturally the lord does not need to sacrifice his reputation, but this military advisor, hehe! Sun Qian didn't say anything, he just sneered twice, but it made Liu Bei's heart directly shift his hatred.

He and the people borrowing grain and grass will affect the reputation of benevolence and righteousness, and if they don't borrow grain, they will lead to a great cause, and the guide is because of one person, that is, Pang Tong Pang Shiyuan, invisibly, Sun Qian took Liu Bei to make Liu Bei's impression of Pang Tong a little worse.

"Sun Qian!" Jian Yong on the side was shocked in his eyes, when did he start to make such a move for Sun Gan, Sun Gan's misleading again and again, if Jian Yong didn't understand in his heart that he had a sense of vigilance against Sun Gan's subconscious, he might have been brought in by Sun Gan, and thus became dissatisfied with Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan.

"Borrow!" Liu Bei gritted his teeth and could only spit out such a word. Can you not borrow, the army under his command is not full, if it is defeated, Liu Bei's enemies will not have sympathy for Liu Bei, whether it is Liu Mang or Cao Cao, they want to get rid of Liu Bei and hurry up, Liu Bei has already come to this road, he can't turn back, those princes failed a few are good consequences, Gongsun Zhan burned his own family. Yuan Shu didn't even leave a corpse behind, and if he Liu Bei lost, he might die worse than them. So Liu Bei had to borrow grain and grass.

Listening to the words of the lord Liu Bei, Sun Gan felt a pride in his heart, smearing Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan, this is just Sun Gan's first step.

Sun Qian still has some ability, otherwise he would not have been recommended by the great Confucian Zheng Xuan to assist Liu Bei for so long, even if Pang Tong arrived, Sun Qian was not abandoned.

"Lord, how much grain can the people have in their hands, even if we borrow it, we are just a drop in the bucket, we can only hold on for another half a month! Except that the lord wants to force the people to rebel. Otherwise, once the food and grass of the military division cannot be delivered. Then we still can't avoid a way to perish in Yuzhou! Sun Gan said loudly again, this is not that Sun Qian is scary, but a fact, once there is a shortage of food and grass. I'm afraid I don't want others to do it. Liu Bei himself was able to play himself to death. Over there, Xiliang Tieqi was the first to do it, those Qiang barbarians don't understand your big truth, in his opinion, being a soldier is robbery. Originally, it was a precarious job, in order to be able to refresh during the robbery, and you didn't even give us food to eat, so it was naturally anti-fucking, and at that time, it was really miserable.

Liu Bei's face became gloomy, "Ji will come out!" Liu Bei he played this Cheng dù, he can't afford to lose, and now borrowing food can only postpone death, this is not giving people life, Liu Bei asked to the group of civil and military below.

But these civil and military forces are not immortals, can they conjure grain and grass for Liu Bei for him! So looking at Liu Bei's gaze, he avoided it.

Waste, waste, a bunch of waste! Liu Bei roared in his heart, his face was already terrifyingly dark, if his third brother was here, he would definitely find that his eldest brother's face was even darker than his Zhang Fei.

Looking at Liu Bei's frighteningly black face, Jian Yong knew that Liu Bei wanted to kill someone, if it was not good, someone might be unlucky, Jian Yong had no choice but to take a step forward, he did not speak to Liu Bei but to Sun Qian on the side, "Sun Don't drive, since you don't drive like this, you naturally have a plan, why don't you teach us!" ”

"What is there to teach Gongyou!" Liu Bei was reminded by Jian Yong and immediately looked at Sun Gan, yes, since Sun Qian opened his mouth, he naturally had a plan, otherwise why would he say it.

"Lord, this strategy is to borrow grain and grass from Cao Cao in Yanzhou!" Sun Qian still had a lot of goods in his stomach, and he immediately came up with a clever plan, which was to borrow grain and grass from his good neighbor Cao Cao.

"Cao Cao?!" The people below have been discussing, everyone doesn't know what kind of character Cao Cao is, he is a hero, he is a master, but the most important thing is that he and their master Liu Bei are mortal enemies, compared to the hatred of Yuzhou and Yangzhou, it is not a lot at all, and even more than that.

Liu Bei's good face is gone, he has cheated Cao Cao, Cao Cao wants to kill him, Cao Cao is so good at lending him grain and grass, Cao Cao is too late to be happy, isn't this putting his face over to Cao Cao.

"Lord, there are three reasons why this is related to Cao Cao's borrowing of grain, one of them..."Sun Gan looked at the civil and military discussions, if he was such a scene, you all thought it was impossible, I turned him into a fact Isn't this a reflection of my value, and it is also under the premise that Pang Tong Pang Shiyuan failed to do it, just when Sun Gan was about to talk eloquently, a herald suddenly rushed in.

"Tell the lord, the Jingzhou military division has sent a letter!" As soon as the herald entered, he told a message that made everyone scream.

"What! Letters! Liu Bei stood up on the spot, he really couldn't sit still.

"The military advisor has sent a letter, this is the grain and grass that has been prepared!"

"That's great, with food and grass we can expand our army!" The civil and military forces below are also smiling, with grain and grass, the army can be expanded, and when the army is expanded, there will naturally be various positions, those military marquis, hundreds of generals, these positions of real power are all money, you can arrange your own people, isn't it.

"Hurry up, get it, bring it!" Liu Bei was overjoyed, didn't they just wait for the news from Jingzhou, and now that the news arrived, they were naturally overjoyed.

"Lord, this, this!" Sun Qian was dumbfounded, he hadn't talked about it yet, he hadn't said his third yet.

"Gongbless your construction first and look at the news of the military advisor first!" Liu Bei smiled and stopped Sun Qian.

"Military division, military division, it's him Pang Shiyuan again!" Sun Qian roared in a low voice in his heart, and the killing intent towards Pang Tong in his heart deepened. However, the lord insisted on this, and Sun Qian could only nod and say that he had retreated.

A letter was quickly handed over, Liu Bei directly opened it, read it, the more he read, the faster this face changed, from the excitement at the beginning to solemnity, to hesitation, and even a doubt.

"What's wrong with my lord.+!" Jian Yong on the side asked Liu Bei suspiciously, because Liu Bei's face changed so badly.

"Ken and you come and see!" Liu Bei taught Jian Yong the letter in his hand.

Jian Yong looked at it with a glance. His face was also changing.

"This. This! What does the military advisor think?! Jian Yong didn't understand, this letter was passed on in the hands of others with Liu Bei's permission.

Sun Qian also read the letter, this Pang Tong Pang Shiyuan was really bold, and he even asked the lord to send troops and horses to attack Fancheng. Take Fancheng.

"Huh. Hehe! Sun Qian laughed. Anyway, if Pang Tong agrees, then Sun Gan will oppose it, which is Sun Gan's current rule of respect. What's more, it was supposed to be the time for him Sun Qian to show his talent, but he was interrupted abruptly, or because of a letter from Pang Tong, do you say Sun Gan can not be angry.

Sun Gan's laughter was so harsh that Liu Bei felt a little uncomfortable, "Gongyou, do you have any opinions!" ”

"Lord, it's not that Sun Qian has an opinion on the military advisor, the military advisor wants to put our entire Yuzhou army and the lord into death!" Sun Qian stepped forward and bowed to Liu Bei.

"Yes, yes! This Fancheng can't be beaten! "A group of ministers over there are also hesitating, this Pang Tong wants the Yuzhou army to attack Fancheng, what is Fancheng, that is the territory of Jingzhou Liu Biao, and it can also be the lifeblood of Jingzhou Liu Biao, if this is beaten, this and Liu Biao's face will really be torn apart.

"Lord, this Fancheng is the barrier to the west of Liu Biao in Jingzhou, it is indestructible, and it is guarded by tens of thousands of elites, the city is dozens of zhang high, surrounded by the living water of the Yangtze River, it can be regarded as easy to defend and difficult to attack, if you take Fancheng, there is no 108,000 troops to take it!" Sun Qian said and looked at Liu Bei here, now even if Liu Bei expands his army, it will only be 100,000 troops, how can this Fancheng be gnawed on a hard bone.

"Lord, even if we take Fancheng with great effort, then the end of our Yuzhou is almost coming! There is Xu Du Cao Cao in the north of Yuzhou, Cao Cao's ambition is also in the world, now trapped by Hebei, the day of getting out of trouble is when our two armies are fighting, there is Yangzhou Liu Mang Lujiang Lu Bu in the east, the lord of our army has fought against him in Yangzhou, the war has not been lifted between the two sides, this is already surrounded by two enemies, if Fancheng is taken, then it will completely offend Liu Biao of Jingzhou, once Liu Biao is also the enemy of our army, then our army is really full of enemies! Lord, doesn't this military advisor want us to be buried with the Yuzhou army! Sun Qianyi said rhetorically, and the civil and military forces over there also nodded straightly, if this is really all enemies, then it will really be over, their lord is not Cao Cao, Cao Cao can now be regarded as the north of the Wen Ding Hundreds of thousands of armored men in his hands, even if they are enemies of the world, they are not afraid, but their lord Liu Bei only has a state in his hands, and there are only tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under his command, if this offends the surrounding princes, then just wait to be besieged.

"This, this, this!" Liu Bei frowned, he didn't want to attack Fancheng, he could also imagine what Sun Gan thought, although Jingzhou Liu Biao is a dog guarding the city, but if you provoke this old dog and rob other people's bones, people will still roll up their sleeves and cut you, and the rabbit will bite people when they are in a hurry, not to mention Liu Biao, a prince.

"Lord, Jian Yong thinks that what Don't Drive said is a bit exaggerated!" Just when Liu Bei hesitated, Jian Yong suddenly spoke.

"Jian Yong!" Hearing Jian Yong's mouth, Sun Gan's eyes narrowed, originally Jian Yong questioned Sun Gan and said bad things about Sun Gan in front of the lord, Sun Gan still didn't believe it, after all, he Sun Gan and Jian Yong have been working together for a day or two, but now it seems that this Jian Yong is really not simple. Is he and Pang Tong already allied?

Sun Gan couldn't help frowning and said, if Jian Yong really had to be unified with Pang, then Sun Gan really had to reconsider.

In fact, Sun Qian misunderstood Jian Yong, Jian Yong is not an alliance with anyone, he is only loyal to Liu Bei, whoever provokes him to doubt him will naturally say bad things in front of Liu Bei.

"What do you think?!" Liu Bei looked at Jian Yong and asked with objections.

"The lord of this Fancheng is the important place of Jingzhou Liu Biao, Mr. Sun Qian said, if we take Fancheng, then we will offend Jingzhou Liu Biao, and never make the enemy surrounded on three sides, but don't forget one point, that is, the current Jingzhou Liu Biao has already formed an alliance with Yangzhou Liu Mang, with our grudge against Yangzhou Liu Mang, what is the difference between this offense and Jingzhou Liu Biao!" Jian Yong said to Liu Bei.

"Yes, yes! This Jingzhou Liu Biao has already formed an alliance with Yangzhou Liu Mang, and he is already our enemy! ”

"This is different, Liu Biao has no enterprising heart, and the alliance is just Liu Biao's appeasement!" Sun Qian is right, it is really difficult for Liu Biao to make up his mind to be the enemy of Liu Bei in Yuzhou, Liu Biao just wants to live a peaceful life.

"Huh!" Jian Yong did not refute but changed the angle, "The lord said again, this Fancheng is the important town of Jingzhou, if you take Fancheng, you can get Fancheng and go to Jingchu, Xiangyang can go down in half a day, and the whole Jingzhou will be eyed by the lord in front of you, lord, there is another point, that is, the grain and grass of Fancheng that the military advisor said in this letter is the key to the key, and if you take Fancheng, then our army will completely ask for the crisis of grain and grass!" Fancheng is an important town in Jingzhou, with the prosperity of Jingzhou, there will be more than 10,000 grains and grass, so that the lord can expand the army by 100,000, destroy Yangzhou first and then plot Jingzhou! "Jian Yong's courage is really big, he actually wants to take Yangzhou and annex Jingzhou.

"Grain and grass!" Liu Bei's eyes flashed with a gleam, what Liu Bei lacks now is food.

"The lord can't," Sun Qian also wanted to stop Liu Bei, "The lord grain and grass, we can borrow it from Xu Du Cao Cao!" As long as we" Sun Qian hasn't explained clearly, Liu Bei will stop Sun Gan from speaking.

"Gongyou doesn't need to say much!" Liu Bei already has a definite test in his heart, food grain, or food, as long as there is food to get through the difficulties, don't talk about anything else, what Sun Qian said Cao Cao, Liu Bei is uncomfortable in his heart.

"Xianhe, how can Fancheng go down!" Liu Bei asked Jian Yong on the side, Jian Yong was in charge of intelligence.

"Lord, although Fancheng is big, Fancheng has a shortcoming, that is, the gate of Fancheng is difficult!" Jian Yong said to Liu Bei, Fancheng is a big city, naturally his city gate is thick, there are jacks and suspension bridges, once it is closed, it is difficult to open the car, but there is another disadvantage of such a city gate, that is, it is difficult to close the city gate, at least a few pillars of incense.

"The city gate is difficult!" Liu Bei finally had an idea, "Where is Hu Che'er!" (To be continued......)
