Although the result of the war relies on the competition of strength between the two sides, the strategists provide advice, the generals fight desperately, the soldiers do their best, and even various factors.

But people like Zhuge Liang, Zhou Yu, Pang Tong, Xun You, and Jia Xu can get a glimpse of the secrets of heaven.

As a southerner, people who are also joining or about to join the Guan family, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong are naturally full of confidence in the Guan family.

Xu Shu and Pang Tong said a lot, and they didn't go to bed from dawn to dark. But early the next morning, Pang Tong woke up, and then Xu Shu wrote two letters to Pang Tong, one to Yang Wu's chief clerk Yi Ji, and the other to Guan Ping.

All Pang Tong wanted was these two letters. After succeeding, he immediately threw Xu Yuanzhi away and took his cavalry to Nanzheng.

On the morning of that day, Pang Tong arrived in Nanzheng City and came outside the prefect's mansion. Pang Tong politely asked the guards' personal soldiers to pass the letter to Yiji.

Not long after, Yiji came out. Although Yiji was not familiar with Pang Tong, he had also heard of Pang Tong's name.

It is precisely the "Nanzhou scholar's crown".

Both sides met in front of the door. After a while of greeting, Yiji invited Pang Tong to sit in the room, and he took Xu Shu's recommendation letter to see Guan Ping.

Although there are currently wars in Jingzhou, Cao Cao, Zhou Yu, Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu and others all dispatched their troops to attack the enemy's weaknesses with their strengths and to join forces with each other.

But Hanzhong is comfortable.

On the one hand, Guan Ping was worried that the situation in Jingzhou was corrupt and restless. On the other hand, he was idle and panicked.

Receiving Zhuge Jun a few days ago was a rare and serious thing Guan Ping did.

Guan Ping was lustful and had nothing to do, so he wanted to hang out with the woman. In the future, the doorman in the small hall of the house was closed. Guan Ping asked Dou to dance an indescribable dance, then drank and had fun, and indulged in the voice.

"Since ancient times, heroes have been sad to pass the barriers of beauty. There are many kings who have been resentful of beauty. I have only two concubines around me, which has made my legs and feet weak and I don't want to go out, let alone the three palaces and six courtyards."

Guan Ping was drinking in a small mouthful while watching the dance.

Unspeakable dance.

"Paipa." A knock on the door sounded outside the door.

"What's the matter?" Guan Ping asked lowered the wine bowl.

"General Ming, Master Yi is looking for a meeting." Zhou Xiong's voice sounded. Guan Ping sobered up, and he was so indulging in love with his sensuality. He still couldn't waste his business.

Don’t you see many kings, your country is destroyed and your family is destroyed.

Guan Ping hurriedly asked Dou to go down and ordered the maid to clean up the soup. After finishing the cleaning, Zhou Xiong opened the people. Dou had already entered the inner room, while the maid went down with the soup.

Yiji waited outside the door for a while, but he didn't care. Everyone knows that Guan Ping's temper is that he can't change his lust, so he simply is lustful and does not addicted to female sex.

Fortunately.

Yiji waited outside the door for a while and had long guessed what kind of activities the Ming General was doing that were not suitable for children. After entering the small hall, Yiji visited Guan Ping. Then he took out Xu Shu's letter and presented it to Guan Ping and said bluntly: "General Ming, this is Xu Yuanzhi's letter. He recommended a great talent in Jingzhou, named "Feng Chu". Mr. Sima Hui once said that he was "Shi Crown of Nanzhou". He is from Xiangyang, Pang Tong, whose courtesy name is Shiyuan."

Yiji was afraid that Guan Ping would despise Pang Tong, so he said so much. But how could Guan Ping not accept this recommendation letter? He couldn't ask for it.

When Guan Ping heard that Pang Tong had arrived, he immediately leaned forward to find a recommendation letter and saw it at a glance. The main reason was that Xu Shu's letter was too long-winded, so you don't need to read it.

Who doesn’t know that there is a Pang Tong in Jingzhou?

There is a phoenix and a dragon?

As the saying goes, if you lie down a dragon, you can rest assured to the world. Now that I have these two people, isn’t the whole world under control?

Guan Ping was very excited.

Although Guan Ping had already expected this result, from stabilizing the scholars of Jingzhou, such as Ma She, to rising status and power, it will inevitably attract all the talents to join us.

Xu Shu came first, Zhuge Liang arrived later, and Zhuge Liang appointed Jiang Wan as the chief secretary of Jiangxia when he took office.

All the talents used in history are in my control. You can attack when you advance, you can be called the emperor when you retreat, you can be defend when you retreat, and you can be called king when you dominate.

As stable as an old dog.

Of course, although Guan Ping was excited, his face was as stable as an old dog, just like Xu Shu and Zhuge Liang came to join him. There was no need to be too excited.

Good birds choose trees to live in, and wise ministers choose masters to work.

Now it is a good tree and a wise master, so the dragon and the phoenix are here.

No need to be excited, no need to be excited.

Guan Ping is as stable as an old dog. After reading the introduction letter at a glance, he put it down and said, "I have heard of Pang Tong, a native of Xiangyang. The chief clerk Yi invited him in, and I want to talk to him alone."

"promise."

Yi Ji was relieved to see this, and as long as he could meet and talk. Yi Ji believed that Guan Ping would definitely reuse Pang Tong. Not long after Yi Ji continued, Pang Tong walked in from outside.

The first time the king and his minister met, he had a gift.

Pang Tong bowed and said to Guan Ping: "Pang Tong, a native of Xiangyang, has met General Ming."

"Sir, please sit down." Guan Ping politely returned the greeting, and then asked Pang Tong to sit down. Then Guan Ping said, "I have read Xu Yuanzhi's letter and I know that Mr. is very talented."

"I have a big event in my mind now. Can you plan for me?" Guan Ping asked for advice, and it was also a formulaic school examination.

It’s the same as the previous appointment of Xu Shu and Zhuge Liang, what’s the point of getting some real information first?

The king and his ministers had a conversation, and then Guan Ping said, "The king is truly overlord and virtuous." Then Pang Tong went out and said happily: "The king is truly my master."

This is the classic when the monarch and ministers first met.

"Please tell me General Ming." Pang Tong bowed and smiled calmly.

"There are Yin Kongxiu in Jingzhou, Ma Jichang, Zhuge Kongming, Jiang Gongyan and others to plan, and the generals include Zhao Zilong, Zhang Yide, Gan Xingba, Wei Wenchang, Chen Uncle and Nephew, and I can rest assured. But Liu Zhang, Bashu, is a big trouble. At present, Hanzhong is empty, and the front line of Yangping cannot move rashly. There are 20,000 strong people and more than 10,000 elite soldiers outside Nanzheng City. If Liu Zhang heard about the battle between Jingchu and Chu, he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity and send troops to attack, what should he do?"

Guan Ping asked.

This practical information is indeed a place where Guan Ping is worried. The battle between Jingchu and Bashu is surrounded by mountains, and news is difficult to communicate. Liu Zhang has not responded at the moment, so he probably doesn't know.

But after a long time, I must have known it. If Liu Zhang knew that Hanzhong was empty and ordered the army to fight north, how should he stop it?

Guan Ping's current idea is that if Liu Zhang sends people to attack and let the people defend the city, and then lead Li Fei, Zhou Xiong and other personal soldiers to go south to defend.

Oil-adding tactics.

The two battles started, and both sides lost their troops. Guan Ping fought on the front line, while Yan Pu and others sent enough soldiers and food in the rear to send civilians little by little.

That is, passive defense.

There is no way. Now the Guan family's elite soldiers and generals are almost all concentrated in Jingzhou to deal with Cao Mengde. The power of Hanzhong is empty and can only be so despicable.

Guan Ping got some real information.

In fact, Pang Tong made sufficient preparations, whether Guan Ping asked about the situation in Yizhou, Jingzhou, people's livelihood, or something.

Pang Tong can answer it.

It is precisely because of learning the civil and military skills and selling them to the imperial family. Since Pang Tong decided to become an official, he would naturally be well prepared to show his talents.

Therefore, Pang Tong replied without thinking: "Be the first to take action, take advantage of his unpreparedness to go south to Micang Road and attack Brazil. Take attack as defense. If General Ming attacks Brazil, Liu Zhang will be disorganized. After the two sides stalemate for a long time, Jingzhou can decide the outcome. General Ming can mobilize Jingzhou's troops into Hanzhong, and then fight with Liu Zhang to compete with him."

Guan Ping was surprised. The brain circuits of this person were indeed different. In this situation in Jingzhou, Guan Ping was mainly stable, so he decided to defend.

But Pang Tong’s idea is that we use attack instead of defense.

It is precisely because if Liu Zhang knew the situation in Jingchu, he would definitely send troops, so it would be better to start first. When his troops failed to gather and the food was not ready, he would attack Bazhong and create chaos.

Anyway, you can attack Bazhong by advancing, and you can defend Yonekura Road by retreating.

Come and go freely.

After changing his thinking, Guan Ping agreed with Pang Tong's opinion. So he followed the good and said with the flow: "Sir, he is really awesome." Then, Guan Ping praised: "I have a sir, just like Wu Zixu, why worry about the immortality of Chu?"

Speaking of this, Guan Ping stood up from the seat, bowed deeply to Pang Tong and said, "I want to worship Mr. As the military officer in the mansion, I don't know what the teacher wants?"

"I will do my best to repay the general because of the importance of General Ming." Pang Tong was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed down.

The king and his minister set their names, and from then on they were like fish in water.

All are fish, all are water.

However, although Guan Ping knew that Pang Tong was a talented person, he still made some money and went through a procedure. After the emperor and his ministers were overjoyed, Guan Ping summoned the county, the government officials and important officials.

The civil servants of the conference held a banquet and Longzhong introduced Pang Tong. After everyone had a glass of wine, the atmosphere became warm. Guan Ping took Pang Tong's hand, then came to Ma Su's case, pointed at Ma Su and said, "Ma Youchang is also joining the army for me. You two should work together to plan."

"Promise." Pang Tong and Ma Su each agreed. Then, Guan Ping took Pang Tong's hand and said loudly: "I get Pang Shiyuan, and I am like a tiger with wings."

After giving Pang Tong enough face, Mr. Pang Shiyuan's face was also shining. Although this wine is strong and easy to get drunk, people's words are even more intoxicating.

After Guan Pinglongzhong introduced Pang Tong, he followed by a normal banquet, and there were singing and dancing to entertain him. The singer and musician appeared on the stage and danced gracefully.

Guan Ping also calmed down, drank and watched singing and dancing, and shook his glass to Pang Tong from time to time. He drank in small mouthfuls and did not dare to swallow the whale in big mouthfuls.

After drinking for three rounds, a minor official broke in from outside and his face turned pale. Guan Ping knew something was different from the officials present, so even the singer and musician stopped.

The minor official came to Guan Ping and handed the bamboo tube to Guan Ping, saying, "General Ming, the Di people rebelled, killed Wudu County Governor, Dou Xiong, the Di King, and defended the city. Wang Shan, the governor of Yinping County, closed the city gate, guarded Yinping, and sent someone to send official documents."
