Chapter 201 Wuxia Amon (1)
Thinking that he could enter Xichuan soon, his "Longzhong Pair" layout was expected to be successful, Zhuge Liang was also very excited and couldn't wait to start conceiving a lineup to enter Xichuan.
Taking stock of Liu Bei's generals, although they cannot be said to be powerful generals, they are still enough.
It turned out that there were three generals, Guan, Zhang and Zhao, who were the bravest generals of the three armies, and they were able to pacify Jingnan and get two generals, Huang Zhong and Wei Yan, as well as Chen Dao, Hu Ban, Guan Ping, Mi Fang, Huo Jun, Xiang Chong and other generals, which were useful.
But in terms of military advisors, Zhuge Liang felt that it was still a bit deficient!
The guarding of Jingzhou and the collection of Xichuan are very important, and there is no need to be any mistakes. It is necessary to have a military advisor to make a thorough plan!
Zhuge Liang himself was too ill. If Xu Shu was still there, he would be a suitable candidate for guarding Jingzhou or seeking Xichuan. Unfortunately, he was poached by Cao Cao!
Such as Sun Gan, Jian Yong, Ma Liang, Xiang Lang, etc., are all good at politics. Although Ma Su is good at military affairs and has performed well recently, they are all just small-scale quarrels.
After all, Ma Su was young and knowledgeable, and lacked experience, so he needed a lot of training. Naturally, he could not put the heavy responsibility of guarding Jingzhou or seeking Xichuan on him!
After thinking about it, Zhuge Liang had no suitable candidate. He couldn't help but think of Pang Tong, a classmate who was good at military strategy, who was still stranded in Jiangdong.
Zhuge Liang's detailed work left by him found out that Lu Su recommended Pang Tong for the first time on Zhou Yu's behalf, but Sun Quan did not use it.
But after Lu Su replaced Zhou Yu as the governor, his own weight increased, and Sun Quan would have to give him more face!
If he recommends Pang Tong again, even if Sun Quan does not want to use Pang Tong very much, he will also give a symbolic position to help Lu Su.
In this way, Pang Tong will inevitably join Jiangdong and assist Lusu in guarding the six people. He needs to make achievements and prove himself. Jingzhou will never have a good life in the future!
Zhuge Liang made up his mind in an instant and recommended Pang Tong to Liu Bei before Lu Su had time to form his own team.
So Zhuge Liang wanted to go to Jiangdong to find Pang Tong, so he said to Liu Bei:
"There are many virtuous and wise men in Jiangdong, and Sun Quan may not be able to use them all. I want to go to Jiangdong on the grounds of mourning to ease the tension with Jiangdong and look for the wise lord Sasuke."
Although Liu Bei also wanted to have more virtuous people to help him, he was still very worried about Zhuge Liang's safety and dissuaded:
"Although Zhou Yu did not die at the hands of our army, he had some connection with the military advisor. He was afraid that the soldiers of Jiangdong would harm Mr. Yu, so it would be okay for me to send Sun Quan to cheer me up."
Kong Ming replied confidently:
"Although Sun Gan can do it, he is not familiar with Jiangdong, so it is difficult to be competent for searching for talents! Lord, please rest assured, when Zhou Yu is alive, Liang is still not afraid; Zhou Yu is dead today, what else can I be afraid of?" He led five hundred elite soldiers with Zhao Yun, and gave sacrifices to him, and got off the boat and went to Baqiu to mourn.
When Zhuge Liang was exploring the road, he learned that Sun Quan had ordered Lu Su to be the governor and Zhou Yu's coffin had returned to Chaisang.
When Kong Ming saw that the situation was within his expectations, he became even more courageous. He went straight to Chaisang. When the Jiangdong generals heard that Zhuge Liang came to praise him for his filial piety, he was extremely indignant and wanted to be detrimental to him, but was stopped by Lu Su and went out to greet him in person and treated him with courtesy.
Zhou Yu's generals were dissatisfied with the intention of attacking Kong Ming, but they did not dare to attack because they saw Zhao Yun with his sword.
Kong Ming calmly entered the mourning hall, set up sacrifices in front of the spirit, personally Served wine, knelt on the ground, and read the sacrifice aloud, with both voice and emotion, which was very touching!
After Kong Ming finished the sacrifice, he leaned on the ground and cried, tears flowing like a spring, and he was deeply mourning. The generals in Jiangdong discussed with each other:
"I just think that the governor and Kong Ming are not in harmony. Now I see that the feelings of the tribute are sincere and the rumors are all false."
Seeing Kong Ming so sad, Lu Su was also moved and accompanied Kong Ming to shed a lot of tears. He secretly felt sorry for Zhou Yu and thought to himself:
"Kong Ming has always been passionate and loyal. Since the Sun-Liu alliance, he has not taken the initiative to target Zhou Yu. In fact, their conflict is because Gongjin is narrow in size and he is causing trouble."
Lu Su eliminated his hostility towards Zhuge Liang in his heart, severely restrained the generals, and held a banquet to entertain Kong Ming.
After the banquet, Kong Ming returned to the boat to rest and was about to get off the boat. He saw a man by the river robe, bamboo crown, soapy tape, and plain shoes. He grabbed Kong Ming with one hand and laughed:
"What a Kong Ming. You designed Zhou Lang torture, but you came to mourn the filial piety again. Ming bullies Jiangdong Wu and no one is there!"
Kong Ming was shocked and looked at him quickly. He was a classmate and friend, Pang Tong, known as Feng Chu. Kong Ming also laughed. The two of them boarded the boat hand in hand and told their thoughts.
Pang Tong was a bystander, and he saw Zhou Yu's death very clearly. It was better to be forced to death by Sun Quan than to be angry with Zhuge Liang!
Zhou Yu was plotted by Cao Cao, injured by poisoning, and was attacked by Sun Quan and Zhuge Liang inside and outside. He was unable to calm down and was angry, so how could he not die?
Pang Tong was glad that he was not activated by Sun Quan at the beginning. If he really wanted to make achievements, he would have to be able to defeat the master with great achievements. It would be hard to say what he would end up with.
After Kong Ming made the statement clear, he invited Pang Tong to Jingzhou, but Pang Tong was not so casual, so he agreed to arrange his tribe members to stop and go to Jingzhou to join Liu Bei.
Kong Ming then left a letter of recommendation to Pang Tong and instructed:
"I expect that after Lu Su and Zhou Yu's funeral end, they will definitely recommend Shi Yuan again, but Sun Zhongmou must not be able to use his full position. It is better to go straight to Jingzhou to support Xuande, so as not to be unfair to Lu Su's appearance. Uncle Liu is kind and kind, and will never let down what he learned in his life." Tong promised and parted, Kong Ming achieved his goal and returned to Jingzhou.
Lu Su sent Zhou Yu's coffin to Wuhu, and Sun Quan then cried and sacrificed his offerings in front of him, and ordered a grand burial in his hometown.
Zhou Yu had two men and one woman, the eldest was Xun, the second was Yin, and Sun Quan both respected him well.
Lu Su was about to take over Zhou Yu's position. When he thought about it carefully, he really had no one to trust. He remembered Pang Tong, who was abandoned by Sun Quan last time, and decided to recommend him again.
After Lu Su took over as the governor, he had the right to appoint some military positions. If it really didn't work, he invited him to make arrangements.
But when he sent someone to the place where Pang Tong lived in seclusion, he had lost his trace of Pang Tong and had to give up.
In the 15th year of Jian'an (21o), Lu Su took over as the governor. When Jianye resigned to Sun Quan, Sun Quan admired Lu Meng very much and reminded Lu Su:
"Although General Lu Meng was born as a martial artist, his fame became increasingly prominent. Recently, he was able to study hard. You cannot look at him with an old eye. You should visit him and discuss the plan to take back Jiangling."
As a Confucian general of a generation, Lu Su believed that Lu Meng was a martial artist and looked down upon him a little, but since his lord valued him so much, he naturally did not dare to neglect him.
After Lu Su arrived at the 6th place, he personally went to Lu Meng's residence to visit.
Lu Meng held a banquet and was drinking. Lu Meng asked Lu Su:
"What strategy will you adopt to prevent unexpected things from happening when you are under the heavy responsibility of your lord and being adjacent to Guan Yu?"
Not long after Lu Su took office, he had not had time to decide the strategy, so he could only barely answer:
“Just adapt to the situation!”
Lu Meng was very grateful for Lu Su's visit and said to his confidant:
"Although Sun and Liu are family now, Guan Yu is really a general like a bear and tiger. How could he not make a plan?"
Therefore, Lu Meng analyzed Lu Su's interests in detail and was very bottom-line, but he still hid his layout in Jiangling.
After hearing this, Lu Su was shocked and rose up from the mat, approached Lu Meng, patted his back affectionately, and exclaimed: "I say that my eldest brother only has martial arts skills. As for now, those who are aware of Yingbo are not the same as Wu Xia Amon."
Lu Meng was very helpful in his praise for Lu Su, and he said with a smile: "The scholar will treat him even more with admiration after three days of separation. Why should I see the matter too late?"
From then on, Lu Su and Lu Meng became friends and were very close.
