Pang Tong didn't answer and asked, "What does the general think?" ”

Zhang Lang said: "This should be one of Liu Biao's strategies to contain our army." ”

Pang Tongxiao said with interest: "Why does the general think so?" ”

Zhang Lang said without hesitation: "The change in Jiaozhou has restrained a large number of my sergeants' financial resources, and Liu Biao doesn't want to sit back and watch me become strong, so he came up with this strategy, so that I can be tired of coping with it." ”

Pang Tong smiled and said, "The general only guessed half right. ”

Zhang Lang was puzzled: "What about the other half?" ”

Pang Tong stood up with a solemn expression. After walking back and forth on the edge of the big tree for three or four times, he said with a stern face: "Does the general really think that Liu Biao is just a person who guards his home but does not fall into the ground?" ”

Zhang Lang suddenly felt bad, and said in a slightly tight voice: "What is the high opinion of that Shiyuan?" ”

Pang Tong said in a deep voice: "Since Liu Biao received the Holy Yu of the Spirit Emperor, he went to Jingzhou alone. Not long after, in Kyoto, there was a rebellion between the Ten Standing Servants and Dong Zhuo. At this time, the imperial court had no time to take care of itself, although Liu Biao was appointed as the pastor of Jingzhou, but it was just a piece of paper, and there was no actual strength to support him to take office. Sun Jian used the excuse of crusading against Dong Zhuo to kill the former Jingzhou Mu Wang Rui, Jingzhou is even more leaderless, the local heroes took the opportunity to divide and make chaos, none of the eight counties of Jingxiang did not fall into turmoil, among which the larger ones were the Su Dynasty who seized Changsha, Bei Yu who occupied Huarong, etc., Yuan Shu also stationed troops in Luyang, staring at the fat of Jingzhou. Liu Biao single-handedly entered Yicheng in Xiangyang in the form of this chaotic crisis. If there is no wisdom and courage, how can you dare to act like this? How can I keep my family name? Later, Liu Biaolian and the local tycoons, relying on Kuailiang's strategy, booby-trapped and killed 55 local tycoons and armed them. He relied on Kuai Yue to persuade Zhang Hu and Chen Sun, who were entrenched in Xiangyang, and Jingzhou was even stable. In less than a few years, he cleared out the large and small separatist forces in the territory, repelled or annexed the strong enemies who peeked into Jingzhou, and governed them in an orderly manner, and firmly held it in their own hands. ”

Zhang Lang thought about it, there are two brushes that can have a place in such a chaotic warlord division in Hanwei, and Liu Biao is no exception, but Pang Tong has said so many words, and he still hasn't cut to the center point, so he can't help but ask suspiciously: "If Liu Biao was born in a prosperous era, he can be a generation of three princes and nine kings, but if he is in a troubled era, I am afraid that he will still lose a few ambitions." ”

Pang Tong sneered: "Ambition? Is ambition a general, all you can see? ”

Zhang Lang said proudly: "If it weren't for my momentum in Jiangdong, I'm afraid that Liu Biao would still be living in the past honor, and he would be drunk and obsessed with gold." ”

Pang Tong was indifferent. After half a sound, he said slowly: "Since the general thinks so, the commander has no objection, but there are a few words that I still have to say to the general." ”

Zhang Lang said respectfully: "Lang respectfully listens to Mr. Teach. ”

Pang Tong took a deep breath, as if he said this sentence very heavy, he said: "Although Cai Mao under Liu Biao is in charge of the military alone, although this person is narrow-minded, he still has some ability. Especially in terms of understanding the water army, it has its own set. This batch of water thieves, ten likely, is disguised by his water army. Its purpose is to disrupt the military deployment in the area around Fuyang. ”

Zhang Lang said bluntly: "Cai Mao is the kind of person who has half a bucket and cuts his tail up to the sky." As for why they sneaked into the area of Turning Yang, you don't need to think about it. ”

Seeing the novelty of what Zhang Lang said, Pang Tong couldn't help laughing and said: "Since the general understands everything, then what else does Pang Tong say." ”

Zhang Lang said repeatedly: "Sir, don't misunderstand, please continue." ”

Pang Tong smiled and said, "Does the general think that this alone is over?" ”

Zhang Lang was stunned for a moment, puzzled: "Is there anything else in difficulty?" ”

Pang Tong said meaningfully: "This is just the first step. ”

Zhang Lang shuddered and asked, "What does Mr. mean?" ”

Pang Tong sneered: "Does the general always think things too simply. Do you think that secretly encouraging Liu Bei to fight in Xichuan can divert Liu Biao's focus and relieve the pressure on his current south? Pang Tong tells you that the general is wrong. And it's very wrong. Maybe Liu Biao didn't have any plans to fight with the general at the beginning, but you can only blame the general for taking the risk too fast, and the speed has already made Liu Biao feel a strong threat. He has to start confronting your existence. And let Liu Bei enter the western Sichuan expedition, he only brought tens of thousands, for Liu Biao, this is nothing, if he takes Hanzhong or even Xishu, it is a big pie falling from the sky, picking up a big bargain; When the time comes to transfer back to Liu Bei, everything is still not in the bag? If Liu Bei does not comply, just because his foothold is not stable, he can take the opportunity to defeat the army in Sichuan, and recapture it under the slogan of Liu Zhang's restoration. If he can't take Hanzhong, then he won't have anything to lose. To put it mildly, Liu Bei has been calculated by your whole body in the contest between the two of you, and it is simply the weight in your hands, neither left nor right. Besides, the infiltration of these water thieves is nothing more than trying to paralyze the general, making you think that Liu Cheng is entering Sichuan with heavy troops and has no intention of confronting you, but he doesn't want you to develop steadily, and playing these little tricks to give you a headache and relax your guard. ”

Zhang Lang's hands and feet were cold when he heard this, and he said a little depressed: "How did Mr. know that Liu Bei went to Hanzhong to fight and was in the bottom line?" ”

Pang Tong despised and said: "In the battle of Xiangxi, as long as you use more dim sum, anyone can see that you are famous." ”

Zhang Lang gasped and lost his voice: "In this way, Liu Bei entered Sichuan this time, could it be that Liu Biao already knows his intentions?" ”

Pang Tong smiled: "It's hard to say, although the brothers of the Kuai family are powerful, they haven't reached this point yet, and it is estimated that it will take a while for them to figure it out slowly." It was Liu Biao, although he trusted Liu Bei very much, but he was most afraid that the villain's wife would blow the wind in his ears. It's okay for a day or two, but I'm afraid that after a long time, I'm afraid it will be ......"

Zhang Lang couldn't help but think of Liu Biao's concubine Huang, his heart was cold, Pang Tong had already said it very clearly, Liu Biao himself had no prejudice against Liu Bei, and it could be said that he admired him very much, the bad thing was Cai Mao, Cai Mao was angry that Liu Bei had robbed him of a lot of military power, so he let his sister blow the wind in Liu Biao's ears all day long, so that sooner or later it would be bad. Thinking of this time, Zhang Lang was extremely big, and said stupidly: "Fortunately, Mr. Pang is not Liu Biao's person, otherwise this time it would be really dangerous." ”

Pang Tong said lightly: "General, let's pay more attention to myself first." ”

Zhang Lang's eyelids jumped, and he said in a deep voice: "Shi Yuan only said half of what he said just now, what about the rest?" ”

Pang Tong said meaningfully: "Liu Biao's water army can so easily sneak into the area of Zhuyang Lake, which in itself is very revealing. Secondly, Liu Biao dared to exert so much strength to make these actions, but he was afraid that there would be follow-up moves. ”

Zhang Lang said to Pang Tong anxiously: "In this way, if the defense line of the rivers of Chaisang and Chuanyang is not lax, there will be internal annihilation. Otherwise, how could so many people easily get in? ”

Pang Tong chuckled: "This is something that the general should investigate carefully when he goes back." There is still no plan for the worst, Liu Biao may have secretly gathered men and horses, ready to attack the Jiangdong defense line again. And this time, it will be more stealthy and tougher. Hopefully, the general would have been prepared. ”

Zhang Lang's heart sank to the bottom, his eyes flashed with a chilling gaze, and he said hatefully: "Why is Mr. so sure? ”

Pang Tong laughed and said with a relaxed face: "Maybe it wasn't Liu Biao who provoked the rebellion of the Jiaozhou Shi brothers, but it did make him pick up a big bargain, just think about it, if you were replaced, would you let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?" ”

Zhang Lang smiled bitterly: "Of course not, it's just that I used a trick to repel Liu Biao last time, but I didn't expect him to prepare for a second attack so soon." ”

Pang Tong said: "The art of war: surprise and attack unprepared." The general was only afraid of difficulties this time. ”

Zhang Lang snorted coldly, the stubbornness in his bones made him can't help but straighten his body, swept away the gloom just now, and said in a deep voice: "Liu Biao wants to defeat me, but he doesn't have the ability yet." ”

Pang Tong nodded unconsciously, obviously impressed by Zhang Lang's unstoppable domineering, he smiled and said: "Tong believes that the general is not a person who talks big. But now that 100,000 heavy troops are on an expedition to Jiaozhou, I'm afraid it will ...... But then again, although there are many difficulties, the grass people still wish the general success and complete the hegemony. ”

Zhang Langpi smiled and said, "What does Shiyuan mean?" ”

Pang Tong said solemnly: "If you lose to Liu Biao just like this, then it can only be regarded as my Pang Tong has no eyes." Overestimating you. ”

Zhang Lang's heart swelled with a strong fighting spirit, and he said in a deep voice: "Shiyuan, don't worry, if I lose in this way, then I Zhang Lang don't have to mess around." It's better to go home early and farm with peace of mind. ”

Pang Tong stroked his palms and laughed: "Okay, it really has the spirit of a hegemon." ”

Zhang Lang stared at Pang Tong with both eyes, and couldn't help but feel admiration in his heart, the originally sloppy image has now become so tall. From what he said just now, Zhang Lang already has a new understanding of Pang Tong, and it is really as stated in the book: Wolong and Phoenix Chick have one, and they can settle the world. If it comes to commanding troops, Zhou Yu can rank first; If he makes a plan, Guo Jia will not let it. But if you take the overall situation as a whole, maybe Pang Tong has no one to compare with Pang Tong. Zhang Lang said seriously: "Mr. Pang's knowledge is really outstanding, Lang once again implores you to publish a book and help in the next hand, how about it?" ”

Pang Tong shook his head and said apologetically: "The general doesn't need to be strong, the time has not yet come." ”

A hint of murderous intent suddenly flashed in Zhang Lang's eyes, but it just swept by, and then returned to calm.

Pang Tong obviously didn't notice Zhang Lang's expression, he lowered his head and thought about it, and said seriously: "General, don't worry, tell me the truth." Although Liu Biao has become a climate, he is not the enemy of the general; Although Liu Bei had Zhuge Liang's help, he was difficult to support alone; Yuan Shao is down, and Cao Ying will become your biggest opponent. Looking at Cao Ying, civil officials are like clouds, and tigers will become sand, but his surname is suspicious, which is the biggest failure. On the other hand, the general, appointing people to be virtuous, loyal and good, far from the villain, and loving the people like a son, will inevitably have a hegemony. If Tongsheng can't be used by the general, he won't die for others. The general can rest assured. ”

Zhang Lang sighed deeply. After a long time, he said slowly: "I hope that day will come soon, and Lang will raise his hand to welcome." ”

Pang Tong made a hand gesture, and then saluted respectfully and said, "In this way, Tong will not be far away." ”

Zhang Lang looked at Pang Tongyi deeply, and then turned to leave.

On the way, the confused Zhao Yu asked: "Brother Lang, that Pang Tong person is ugly, sloppy, and very arrogant, what is so good about this person." You treated him like this, he still pushed back, it is better to let Xiaoyu teach him a hard lesson, and he will have no one in his eyes after the province. ”

Dian Wei was originally honest, but when he heard Zhao Yu's words, he couldn't help but shout: "That's it, I don't like that guy in my opinion, it's better to let me go and flatten him out of anger." ”

Zhang Lang shouted: "Don't mess around, you go and clean up for me, and we'll go back to Moling immediately." ”

Zhao Yu said curiously: "Why are you in such a hurry to go back?" ”

Zhang Lang didn't answer Zhao Yu's words, turned back to Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang brothers and said: "The three thousand forbidden troops I brought out are now at your disposal. ”

The Lu brothers should shout: "The last general understands. ”

Zhang Lang thought for a while and said: "It's just that you are asked to cooperate with the local army, but you are not deployed by them, if you have any doubts, report it to me immediately." ”

The Lu brothers nodded in understanding.

Lu Xiang was a little worried: "The lord handed over the forbidden army to his two subordinate brothers, in case something happens on the road, I'm afraid that my subordinates can't afford it." ”

Zhang Lang smiled: "Don't worry, I still have Dian Wei, Han Juzi and Eagle Guard at this time, it's okay." ”

The Lu brothers were a little more relieved.

After everything was distributed, Zhang Lang breathed a sigh of relief, showed a slight smile on his face, and said to Zhao Yu: "We have to prepare for the battle with Liu Biao when we go back." ”

Zhao Yu didn't understand and asked, "Didn't you say it last time?" Let Liu Bei contain Liu Biao's troops, so that my brother can finish fighting Nanban and clean up Liu Biao again. Why don't you wait for Brother Xiaoyu to come back victoriously now? ”

Zhang Lang scratched Zhao Yu's nose and said, "Now the problem is not that we beat him, but Liu Biao, who can't sit still and wants to come over to beat us." Of course, we have to prepare for it. ”

Zhao Yu exclaimed angrily: "What a hateful Liu Biao." My brother didn't touch him, he actually killed him first. ”

Zhang Lang said calmly: "That's because he is smart, in fact, I should have thought of it a long time ago." It's just that I didn't expect Liu Biao to start so quickly. ”

Zhao Yu was more excited than Zhang Lang, and dragged and said, "Let's get on the boat quickly." ”

Zhang Lang nodded, and there was a faint excitement in his heart. Come on, it's time to speed up the process.
