Of course it was too late, Zhang Liao commanded the army and went straight to the east gate of Linhuai City. When Zhang Liao's army entered the east gate, the captain guarding the east gate was still relaxing. Zhang Liao got the job done, and in order to get familiar with the city defense of Linhuai, Zhang Liao spared his life to have a chance of survival. Of course, the captain of the city defense was happy to be a guide. Shouts of killing could be heard throughout Linhuai City.
"Come on, come on, close the city gate for me and drive the enemy back!" Although Qin Feng was shocked, he still wanted to drive the enemy out, because although Linhuai had few troops, but here was Qin Feng. Feng's place of enjoyment, gold, jade, jewelry, food, grass and money are more than the way. If this World War I was taken away by others, Qin Feng would not cry to death. Originally, he planned to go directly to Hongze Lake and leave Linhuai after being breached on the way. He would also take Linhuai's wealth with him. They bought dozens of large ships, all of which were loaded with money, food and grass, but if Linhuai was lost, then Qin Feng's life savings would be wiped out, how could he be willing to do so.
"Let's go, let's go!" Compared to Qin Feng's reluctance to part with his wealth in Linhuai, Song Ming next to him was much calmer. Although he also had Song Ming's property in Linhuai City, it was not much. So he is also willing, now is not thinking about how to drive out the soldiers and horses who invaded the city, but to be the first to ensure his own safety. Most of the soldiers and horses in Linhuai are on the way, how many soldiers and horses can there be in this city!
And when the messenger sent the news, it said that Shouchun sent troops. On the way, the heavy armored cavalry was in pieces, at least thousands of them. If the messenger came quickly, Linhuai might be able to The city gate was closed, and the heavy armored cavalry could not be bothered to lean against the city gate, but the messenger in front came. After that, the heavy armored cavalry invaded the city. What else is there to fight? It's true to run for your life.
"Your Majesty, you can't leave! What will we do if you leave!" Hearing that the enemy army had entered the city. And the owner of Linhuai is about to run away. The three beauties turned pale with fright, they are weak women. In this chaotic world, I only wanted to rely on a strong man so that I could have a stable life, so even though Qin Feng was already old and weak, these three women still served him wholeheartedly. If Qin Feng ran away, what would the three women do! It's a good thing to be taken as a trophy. If you are treated as a military prostitute, you will lose your life directly.
"I won't leave, I won't leave! Don't worry, beauty, I, Qin Feng, will never leave. I will kill all the thieves who invaded the city and drive them out! Then we will recite poems to fight against each other!" I can't bear to part with my tens of thousands of family wealth. Now being coquettishly attacked by three women, no matter what kind of man he is, I'm afraid he will always show his strong side in front of women! Double the courage.
"Hey!" Song Mingmeng patted his thigh. What time is it? Still caring about this beauty's enjoyment, it's like being fascinated by money and sex.
Song Ming wanted to leave by himself so that he could escape from Linhuai quickly, but he also knew that without Qin Feng, no one would prove his identity to Song Ming, so if he ran away alone, he would end up as a refugee! This is impossible, only by following Qin Feng can he become an official again and enjoy life.
"Come on, prepare the army for me! You, you, Song Ming, what do you want to do!" Just when Qin Feng was ready to lead his soldiers and horses to kill the enemy, those soldiers directly set up Qin Feng , Song Ming is not the only one who is anxious, but the generals beside him are also anxious. They are not people who have fought a hundred battles. If they are so good at fighting, they will not defect to Yuan Shu. In addition, they have enjoyed themselves with Qin Feng all these years I'm used to it, so this fighting power is greatly reduced. They don't want to die in Linhuai for no reason, and they want to have fun for a while!
Therefore, the combination of Song and Ming hit it off immediately, and there was a tacit understanding without prior preparation, and they directly set up Qin Feng and prepared to take Qin Feng away by force.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" The three women over there were so frightened that their faces paled. They were not afraid. If Qin Feng left, they would be finished.
They wanted to step forward to stop them, but how could they be the opponents of a few strong men, and they were immediately dropped to the ground.
Song Ming stepped forward and glanced at them. Qin Feng had already been led towards the outer city, and he could no longer see the scene here, so he called out in a low voice, "Come on, send the three mistresses on their way!" These three women can't be kept, if they keep them on the way, there might be blown pillow wind, then Song Ming will be miserable at that time, and Qin Feng will definitely settle accounts after autumn.
Under Song Ming's order, a few soldiers walked forward with smiles, a few strong men, and three weak women. You can imagine the ending. Amidst screaming and laughing, the three women were In this troubled world, the beauty is gone.
"General, general, the front, the front is the lord, no, no, it is the place where Qin Feng is!" The city gate captain panted heavily, and he rode with another Xiliang iron cavalry He couldn't stand the galloping horse, and then he became panting.
He told the general the location of the prefect's mansion long after he surrendered, but the general moved forward without haste. Let him be anxious. He wants to catch Qin Feng, as long as he helps This general grabbed Qin Feng and used Qin Feng's head as a gift. Was he afraid that he had not made any contribution
"There is no secret door here?!" Zhang Liao asked.
"No, no!" The city gate captain seemed to have come to the prefect's mansion quite a few times, and he was able to quickly lead Zhang Liao and others to the nearest place.
"Okay! Well done! Your mission is complete." Hearing Zhang Liao's praise, the dull captain thought he would be rewarded, but Zhang Liao said next, "Zhang Hu sent him on the road!" Zhang Liao waved Zhang Hu Nodding his head, two Xiliang cavalry quickly stepped forward to take down the captain.
"General, you, you can't do this, I brought you here, and I can help you catch Qin Feng, I know where he is, I really do!"
"Do you need to know this?!" Zhang Liao blinked his mouth, "I really don't need it! Zhang Hu killed him!"
"Yes!" Zhang Hu led the order and sent this dull captain on the road. Zhang Liao hated traitors the most, and anyone who saw the traitor begging for mercy would feel uncomfortable. So Zhang Liao would never spare the life of such a small lieutenant, if he sold Qin Feng out of fear of death today, he might be able to sell him Zhang Liao tomorrow.
"Come on, surround me with the entire mansion. No one is allowed to enter or leave! Zhang Hu, you bring your bodyguards and follow me in!" Zhang Liao worked so hard just to take down Linhuai and put Linhuai in one fell swoop. Qin Feng, his master, was let go.
That's right. It is to let Qin Feng go, because what Liu Mang gave Zhang Liao before leaving was to surround the spot for help. Capture Linhuai or any city on the way, rely on the captured city as the foundation, and besiege another city without attacking. Turn to deal with the reinforcements.
Now that Linhuai has been captured, the rest is on the way, and this way is the place where Zhang Liao used to encircle and fight for aid. The purpose is to attract Jiangdong Sun Ce's trilogy. If just one journey is not enough for Jiangdong Sun Ce to send troops, and such a Qin Feng is added, then some people will come, because Qin Feng is in his Jiangdong Sun Ce. You can justifiably send troops. Also, Jiangdong Sun Ce doesn't want to chill the hearts of his subordinates because of Qin Feng, does he? If you don't want to save him, who else will give his life to Jiangdong Sun Ce in the future!
So Zhang Liao deliberately slowed down to give Qin Feng a chance to escape. If he couldn't escape, he could die.
"General, no enemies were found!" Several soldiers who entered first reported to Zhang Liao that they did not find any enemies, and there were only a few servants in the eunuch's mansion, but three were found lying in a pool of blood in the bedroom. The naked woman among them should be the masterpiece of those soldiers before Qin Feng left.
"The speed is pretty fast!" Zhang Liao snorted coldly, and then followed the soldiers into the mansion.
The whole of Linhuai really brought Zhang Liao a lot of surprises. In Linhuai City, there are not many soldiers and horses, only less than 3,000 people, but there are more than 30,000 grain and grass inside. If these grain and grass are really used to raise soldiers It is enough for Zhang Liao's soldiers and horses to use for a year. At least Zhang Liao doesn't need to worry about the problem of food and grass now. That's all, there are more food and grass on the way, which is several times that of here, which makes Zhang Liao's eyes light up. What is lacking in Shouchun now, isn't it the lack of food and grass! If the way is taken down, such a crisis will definitely be alleviated, and even Zhang Liao wants to take the way directly.
But Zhang Liao was calm, and he was not dazzled by the food and grass. If Qin Feng hadn't escaped and was caught by Zhang Liao before, then as long as Qin Feng was captured and brought with him on the way, he would be on his way. But now Qin Feng He ran away, and there was a boss Sun Ce behind him, who would definitely fight Zhang Liao's army. If what these grain officials said was true, then there would not only be tens of thousands of grain and grass on the way, but also tens of thousands of troops. It has already been built into a heavy-duty fortress by those Qin Fengs. Although this Qin Feng does not have much ability, he also knows that no matter how much wealth he has, he must hold it, otherwise it will become a reminder, so the construction on the way He checked them all. This is also a weird one.
In addition to food and grass, there is a lot of wealth, tens of thousands of gold, and countless gold and jade. Although Zhang Liao was not tempted by Qian Bo, he was stunned for a moment. Fortunately, Zhang Liao calmed down in time. He asked Zhang Hu and Ge Jun to take out One thousand gold was distributed to the soldiers under his command. This was to appease people's hearts and also to improve morale for the following battles.
As for the two thousand captured soldiers, Zhang Liao really didn't want to use them. They were all young soldiers, and few of them had actually been on the battlefield. Zhang Liao would waste food and grass if he kept them, so he just sent them away. After leaving Linhuai, they were given a meal of food before leaving. These young masters, after being kicked out of Linhuai, had nowhere else to go, so they could only go in the direction of the way.
"General, who is this?!" Seeing that the rope was let go, the young master soldiers couldn't believe that they were let go, all cheered, after all, no one wants to die, right, now that they are let go, they are naturally happy.
"Don't understand?!" Zhang Liao also watched the young soldiers leave on the city wall.
"Yeah!" Zhang Hu nodded. No matter how weak the combat power of these soldiers and horses is, they are still soldiers, but Zhang Liao let them go so plainly. City troops bring damage. If you are afraid of wasting food and grass by raising them, you can kill them directly. He also let them go and gave them food on the way. Isn't this letting the tiger go back to the mountain!
"Let the tiger go back to the mountain? Are they worthy?!" Zhang Liao's tone showed a kind of disdain. "I let them go so that I can conquer them later!"
"Um?"
"You can see what these two thousand soldiers look like. They have no fighting spirit. They love leisure and hate work, and only know how to enjoy themselves. Going to brothels to gamble, can such soldiers stop us!" Zhang Liao asked rhetorically. .
"No!" Zhang Hu replied.
"But there is no such group of old soldiers on the way!" The group of young soldiers would have known about the flames of war on the way, so they all got back to Linhuai. Only those who have no background, no property, and those who really want to make a difference will be on the way.
As the saying goes, one piece of chicken shit spoils a pot of soup, and Zhang Liao wants these chicken shit to spoil the pot of porridge on the way.
Imagine the scene of this group of people who are afraid of death, this group of gambling, and this group of people who only hide behind others and play with women. After arriving on the way, it will definitely affect the soldiers and horses on the way. Originally, the soldiers on the way were not afraid of death, but after being infected by these young masters, they became afraid of death. They were originally guarding the city gate. Those who monitored the movement, but were taken by these gentlemen to sneak, rape and play tricks, so what if the city is strong on the way!
Moreover, Zhang Liao also gave the young masters food so that they could return to the road alive to explain to the defenders on the way how powerful their Xiliang iron cavalry is.
These young soldiers will definitely not say that they are timid and fearful, but they will definitely say that they are extremely powerful. Similarly, the Xiliang cavalry is stronger than them, so they can attack their hearts!
So these two thousand young master soldiers are really quite a force.
"General Gao Ce, a tiger is not as good as a tiger!" Zhang Hu said heartily to Zhang Liao.
"You still have a lot to learn!" Zhang Liao still has that dead fish face, which makes people look tired. Fortunately, Zhang Hu and Zhang Liao have been together for a long time these days, so they naturally know that Zhang Liao is also a He is easy to get along with, as long as you align with his temper, a typical knife-mouthed bean curd heart.
"Waiting for Xu Sheng's black chess army to arrive, we need to attack on the way!" Xu Sheng's black chess army has a siege weapon ballista in their hands. Without it, Zhang Liao's attack may really only cost his life. to pile up.
…
This time there was no room left. Tang Yun's body was found outside Xinye, and Tang Yun was accompanied by one of his servants. The sign representing the envoy of Jingzhou was beside the body.
"Child Liu Mang bullied me too much!" Liu Biao threw the copybook in his hand to the ground. Could Liu Biao not burn with anger? It is true that Liu Mang's emissary died in his Jingzhou, but don't forget Now, it was Liu Bei of Yuzhou who did it, not Liu Biao of Jingzhou. Similarly, Liu Biao also sent 10,000 stones of grain and grass to express his guilt. Even Liu Mang led the army to come, Liu Biao did not want to really turn against Liu Mang, because Turning against Liu Mang's army will not do any good for Liu Biao. Only maintaining a balance between the two armies of Liu Biao and Liu Mang is what Liu Biao needs.
So Liu Biao sent Tang Yun there with sincerity, but now it’s all right. Tang Yun died outside Xinye City. According to the defenders of Xinye, the shadow of Liu Mang’s army once appeared at the place where Tang Yun’s body was found. . This is a naked slap in the face.
"My lord, Liu Mang's son is shameless. You don't need to talk too much with him. You should send troops directly to wipe out these false kings with Duke Xuande!" He is a disciple of the Pang family, and his second young master is now the military adviser of Liu Shijun in Yuzhou, so he will naturally help his second young master.
"My lord, there are many doubts here. Our army can't be reckless!" Someone stood up and objected. This person's appearance was carved out of the same mold as Kuai Yue, who stood at the top of the civil servants. If Yang Hong was here, he would naturally recognize him. The person who came out was Kuai Yue's younger brother, Kuai Liang, one of the two great advisers in Jingzhou.
Kuai Liang also appeared in the prefect's mansion this time. He didn't come last time because he was angry that Pang Tong killed Liu Mang's emissary but Liu Biao did nothing. If Liu Biao tied Pang Tong and others to arrest Pang Tong There are so many things to send to Yangzhou! Kuai Liang appeared here today because something big happened. Tang Yun died. Although Tang Qishan and Pang Shanmin are close friends, the Tang family is just a small noble family. He is Liu Biao's envoy.
"Doubtful? Reckless?!" A scribe sneered, "Mr. Zirou, why is Mr. Zirou unwilling to believe the obvious thing! Tang Yun died outside Xinye City as the envoy of our Lord. It wasn't him Liu Who did Mang kill?"
"Could it be that you, Zhang Cheng, saw it with your own eyes. Did Tang Yun kill Liu Zhengnan?!" Kuai Liang said that Liu Zhengnan was talking about Liu Mang. title.
"No!" Zhang Cheng is from the Zhang family in Jingzhou, but this Zhang family wears the same pair of pants as the Cai family.
"Since you haven't, how can you draw conclusions in vain. Does Mr. Zhang Cheng think that Jingzhou is in the middle of a war? Do you think our army will make a wedding dress for Liu Bei in Yuzhou for nothing!" Kuai Liang directly refuted Zhang Cheng without It can be said that even Liu Bei's name was called out.
"You. You!" Zhang Cheng pointed at Kuai Liang's nose and was speechless.
"Hey!" Another person stopped Zhang Cheng, and this time it was replaced by a scribe from the Huang family. "Mr. Zirou, although we didn't see it with our own eyes, Tang Yun's body is there. And it's still in Tang Yun's body." I found the standard weapon of the later general Yuan beside me, I dare to ask Mr. Zi Rou, who owns this standard weapon!" In ancient times, people still had restrictions on the manufacture of weapons, for example, Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses were the weapons of the owner All of them are in the style of the later general Yuan, which is also used for liquidation after winning the war. But now Yuan Shu has been wiped out, and it can be said that the only one who inherits Yuan Shu is Liu Mangjun, not to mention when Yuan Shu was still there before. Many of the weapons of Lu Bujun were given by Yuan Shu, and after that Liu Mang became Yuan Shu's son-in-law, and Liu Mang equipped all the armor and weapons in Yuan Shu's treasury that could not be taken away.
"What can a weapon explain?" Kuai Liang continued to retort, "Don't say it's just a weapon from Yuan Gongao's period, even if it says Shu Wang Liu on it. It's just a weapon, and it's people who use weapons. It’s not the weapon itself, my mansion also has the weapon of Liu Mang’s army that brother Yang Hong gave as a gift, so I, Kuai Liang, are the murderer!”
Years of fighting, there must be winners and losers, and it is normal for one's own weapons to appear in the hands of the enemy.
"And Huang Guang, have you ever seen a murderer throwing his weapon at the scene of the murder? It's still a weapon with a logo!" Kuai Liang sneered.
"This further shows that it is purely the false king Liu Mang's revenge. He doesn't regard the lord or me Jingzhou in his eyes at all, so he left weapons on the ground. The lord must send troops, otherwise our army will surely serve the people of the world. Laughing at me, laughing at me that a big Jingzhou is afraid of a child with a yellow mouth!" This Huang Guang is not a fuel-efficient lamp, just now Kuai Liang said that this is the enemy's cover-up, in order to make Liu Biao misunderstand that it was Liu Mang who killed him. Tang Yun was lost, but here Huang Guang said directly that this was just Liu Mang's performance of looking down on Liu Biao, and he didn't even cover it up.
"Shu King Liu Mang is definitely not such a character." Kuai Liang met Liu Mang when he was on a mission to Lujiang. Liang, Kuai Liang is embarrassed. Liu Mang knows the two Jingzhou Kuai brothers, and knows that these two are the real brains of Jingzhou. If Liu Biao really listens to these two people, he will not end up with one Jingzhou was annexed and both sons died unexpectedly.
How can a person who knows how to praise and appreciate others be an arrogant person
"If you weren't such a person, why did you send troops to force me to Jingzhou? They also occupied the land of Yiyang and Zaoyang counties!" Huang Guang became aggressive. This was originally Jingzhou's fault. When Liu Mang was besieged by the three families, Liu Biao not only refused to help, but also sat on the mountain and watched the tiger fight. Liu Mang took Yiyang and Zaoyang as interest in a fit of anger. Liu Biao also nodded in acquiescence. , but now it has become the reason for Liu Mang's arrogance.
"That's some people, let's make mistakes first. If you didn't stand on the sidelines, then would Liu Mang, the king of Shu, take Yiyang and Zaoyang! If you can reach an agreement with the world enemy Sun Ce, you are really capable! You are not afraid to seek skin from a tiger In the end, he was eaten until there was not even a bone left! "Since this Huang Guang is so aggressive, Kuai Liang simply tore off his face. Although it was Kuai Yue's decision at the beginning, there was no rivalry from the Jingzhou gentry! Liu Mang's recruitment order really slapped these gentry in the face and violated their most fundamental interests, so everyone was filled with righteous indignation, not to mention Liu Mang had a precedent of massacring the gentry in Wancheng. To put it bluntly, I'm afraid Liu Biao is really wiped out, and each of them can live a very nourishing life, because Sun Ce is not Liu Mang. It is impossible for him to offend the gentry. At most, these gentry should keep a low profile and have the privilege of being an official. Are you afraid that the family will not rise in the future
"And have you really planned to offend Liu Mang, King of Shu? Don't regret it. If Jiangdong Sun Ce takes Jingzhou, you still have a way to survive. But if you offend Liu Mang, King of Shu, then you still have you The family behind him really has a way out!" Kuai Liang sarcastically said. Liu Mang made them angry, but Liu Mang also made them feel horrified. He was an executioner, and tens of thousands of people were killed in the battle of Wancheng. Dozens of gentry families were all beheaded, and they were all killing gods. Two idiots!
They were angry before, but after thinking about it now, they felt a little fear. The three alliances failed to kill Liu Mang. If Jingzhou and Yuzhou Liu Bei couldn't beat Liu Mang together, then the final outcome would be. These Jingzhou gentry couldn't imagine it anymore, and couldn't help shivering.
Pang Tong, who was in the crowd, frowned. He didn't expect that Kuai Liang and Kuai Zirou could speak so well. Even for these scribes, who had nothing to refute, they were about to stand up, when suddenly music came from outside the prefect's mansion.
This is a kind of mourning, accompanied by Gao Yang's crying, even though Liu Biao's prefect's mansion is very loud, the sound can still be heard.
"Who is mourning?!" In the conference hall, there is a discussion, but there is mourning in front of the gate of the prefect's mansion. Isn't this looking for trouble! And if you pass by, it will be over in a while, but the voice is getting louder and louder, and Liu Biao is about to get angry when he frowns.
"Hurry up, go out and take a look, take a look!" The head of the personal guard hurriedly sent a few soldiers out to investigate. After a while, the soldiers came back, knelt down in front of Liu Biao and said, "I tell my lord, this is the place outside the eunuch's mansion." It's the Tang family who are mourning!"
"Tang family?!" Liu Biao was stunned for a moment. This Tang family should be Tang Yun. Isn't Tang Yun's Tang family just a small noble family? ? It takes a bit of courage to send a funeral to the gate of the prefect's mansion, and ordinary people really can't do it. Even if ordinary people have the courage, they will be kicked out when they reach the gate of the prefect's mansion, and the Jingzhou army at the gate of the prefect's mansion are not vegetarians. Being able to endure sorrow and joy for a long time shows that this person still has some status.
"Who is the person in charge?!" Kuai Yue asked immediately. Before his younger brother was fighting with the Confucians, Kuai Yue didn't say a word, but now Kuai Yue started asking and answering.
"Yes, it's Pang Shanmin! Tang Shanmin helped the coffin himself."
After the sergeant said the name, there was a discussion in the conference hall. Pang Shanmin was just a reading idiot, and he was just a listener under the command of Liu Biao in Jingzhou, very honest, but today became so up. It really made everyone present change the logging.
"Tang Shan Min!" Kuai Liang felt his heart skip a beat when he heard the name. He knew that the situation was going in a bad direction, but he also sighed. Although he was arguing for Liu Mang, he also felt sorry for Tang Yun. Death expresses anger. Kuai Liang has never heard of the friendship between Tang Yun and Pang Shanmin. Giving Tang Yun such etiquette to help the coffin is only done to his elders, because the corpse is a filthy thing after all. That's putting yourself down.
A confidant is like an elder, the friendship between Tang Yun and Pang Shanmin has really come true.
"Tangshan people? Get out, get out, this is the prefect's mansion, not the ancestral hall of Yizhuang!" Cai Mao spoke up immediately. Cai Mao is the military advisor in Jingzhou, but he is the leader of the generals. Except for Cai Mao, he is not as good as Kuai Besides, there is also Liu Biao's doting on himself, his brother-in-law.
"Small man, villain dare not!" Cai Mao was going to ask his soldiers to drive Pang Shanmin out. Although the Pang family is powerful, he, the head of the Cai family, is not weak. It was wrong for Pang Shanmin to cry in front of the prefect's mansion. . But the sergeant still knelt down on the ground and dared not take any action.
"Don't dare?! You want to disobey the military order!" Cai Mao was a little angry. He Cai Mao is the military adviser of the Jingzhou Army. It can be said that most of the soldiers and horses in Jingzhou are in his hands. Cai Mao is in charge, so Cai Mao's prestige in the army is still very high.
"No, no!" The sergeant wanted to explain something.
"Okay, De Gui, don't embarrass him!" Kuai Yue who was standing next to him said, "Pang Shanmin alone won't be blocking the gate of the prefect's mansion until now!"
"Huh? Yidu, what do you mean?!" Cai Mao looked at Kuai Yue, but immediately understood that Pang Shanmin was just a writing order in Jingzhou, and such an official position might be released to become a county lieutenant or county magistrate. But in Xiangyang City of Jingzhou, it is nothing, not to mention that this is the state shepherd's mansion, even the eunuch would not dare to do so. So there must be someone behind Pang Shanmin.
Pang Shanmin, Pang Shanmin himself has no fear. But Pang Shanmin is different behind him. Pang's family in Jingzhou, Lumen Academy. There is also Pang Shanmin's father, Lord Pang De, who doesn't care about a mere Pang Shanmin. But Lord Pang De is different.
"Pang Gong!" Cai Mao asked Kuai Yue, and soon he saw that it was indeed such an expression on Kuai Yue's face.
Cai Mao couldn't help but gasped, what kind of wind brought such an old antique here. Duke Pound
I also understand that the sergeant just now was in a dilemma. If it was him, he would not dare to drive him out.
Liu Biao frowned, looked around and said, "Let's go, go outside this mansion to see what's going on!" Pang Degong, even if he is the lord of Jingzhou. Whether you like it or not, you have to give a three-pointer.
A group of people walked towards the outside of the mansion at the head of Liu Biao.
…
Outside the mansion, there were teams of filial piety people, some of them were crying. Some were spilling paper, while others were lying on the ground and weeping.
On the side of the line, under the banner of Tang characters, a coffin was lying quietly in the middle of the line. This should be the Tang family's funeral procession.
"Where is Pang Shanmin!" As soon as the people left the prefect's mansion, a scribe came out and yelled at the people present. Everyone outside the mansion could see that the speaker was Liu Biao's housekeeper, and he could be regarded as Liu Biao's clansman, and he represented Liu Biao himself.
"Pang Shanmin is here!" Pang Shanmin came out from the side of the coffin. He also wore a filial piety scripture on his head and sackcloth on his body! There are still some tears on the face that have not been wiped away.
"Pang Shanmin, as the lord, you are writing orders under the command of the lord. This time, you are not in the hall, which is regarded as dereliction of duty, but you also blocked the prefect's mansion with a coffin, and even made trouble. I will take it down!" The butler We must take Pang Shanmin directly,
"What's wrong with Pang Shanmin, he needs to be captured!" An old man came out staggeringly on crutches.
Seeing the old man, none of the soldiers who originally wanted to take down Pang Shanmin dared to move. It was because the old man in front of him was old, but his prestige was still there, and he died in Jingzhou One of the great Confucianists in existence, Pangzi is a disciple of Pang Degong.
During the Eastern Han Dynasty, perhaps it should be said that the entire Han Dynasty had great respect for great Confucian scholars. For example, Zheng Xuan, during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, even those Yellow Turban thieves dismounted and walked through Zheng Xuan's house, you can see the prestige of these great Confucian scholars However, as for Guan Hai's siege of Beihai and not giving Kong Rong face, that's because Kong Rong didn't give these yellow scarf thieves a chance to survive. After all, they are in the minority.
As soon as Mr. Pound appeared, all the people present, no matter men, women, young or old, bowed respectfully to Mr. Pound, "Mr. Pang!"
Pang Degong nodded to show that he knew. "I would like to ask, what is the crime of Pang Shanmin? It is necessary to take it down. Pang Shanmin is Liu Shijun's writing order, but Liu Shijun asked Pang Shanmin to worship Tang Qishan's death. As for blocking the prefect's mansion with a coffin To cause chaos is even more nonsense, Pang Shanmin came here with the help of heroic spirits, and he should ask Liu Shijun to uphold justice, so how can he commit chaos!"
"This, this, this!" The butler of Liu Biao didn't know how to speak. Mr. Pang De, a man who has lived for so many years, can drive you to death with a single word. Naturally, a mere butler can't answer. .
"It turned out that Mr. Pang arrived. Please forgive me. Liu Jingsheng was rude and came late. I hope Mr. Pang will forgive me!" When the housekeeper couldn't answer, Liu Biao finally came out with a group of civil and military personnel.
"Old fox!" As soon as Liu Biao came out, he and Pang Degong looked at each other and at the same time had such a thought in their minds. Although Liu Biao was old, he could still support the entire Jingzhou. If you have broken through, you will be considered a fox!
And although Mr. Pang De seems to be indisputable on the surface, he doesn't care about high-ranking officials and rich salary, and he doesn't care about family land, but indisputability is regarded as a big dispute. He Pang De made public a Lushan Academy, which has already included more than half of the scholars in Jingzhou. child.
In a real sense, even Xu Shu and Zhuge Liang came from Lushan Academy. It can be said that Mr. Pang De's prestige is very huge, and as the founder of Lushan Academy, Mr. Pang De will not give face to everyone! They are all his disciples, so the Pang family's one in Jingzhou is really well-received.
There is no need for high-ranking officials and generous salaries. Even Liu Biao, the lord of Jingzhou, had to respectfully call Pang Gong. Family field! Instead of Mr. Pang De fighting for it himself, his apprentices and grandchildren can send it to him. In the name of filial piety, it's not good if you don't accept Mr. Pang De, isn't it!
However, these prestige of Mr. Pang De is precisely what Liu Biao of Jingzhou is afraid of. Fortunately, Mr. Pang De has no ambitions. Maybe this Jingzhou can really change hands, Lord Pang De can't, but his second son doesn't know. This is what Kuai Yue reminded Liu Biao earlier.
In fact, Liu Biao had already arrived at the door, but he asked the housekeeper to come forward in advance to provoke Mr. Pang De. No matter what Mr. Pang De said, he was also Pang Shanmin's father, so it was impossible to sit idly by. As soon as Mr. Pang De appears, it will be obvious. Liu Biao will know what cards Mr. Pound is going to play and how to deal with it when he appears again.
"Emissary Liu!" Pang Degong also respectfully said to Liu Biao. Confucianism attaches the most importance to etiquette, so Pang Degong still respects Liu Biao.
"Why does Mr. Pang need to be so polite? What is the purpose of Mr. Pang's visit this time?!" Liu Biao looked at Mr. Pang Degong and said.
"Master, this time the old man came here because of the death of Tang Yun, Tang Qishan, a good friend of Quanzi!"
"Tang Yun!" Liu Biao saw the coffin and the Tang character flag on the side, and knew that it might be Tang Yun inside. For Tang Yun, Liu Biao also admired Tang Yun very much. Was Tang Yun recommended to Liu Biao or Kuai Yue? Recommended, although the ancients said that they are talented and appreciate talented people, but the ancients also attached great importance to appearance. If you say a handsome guy or an ugly guy standing in front of you, which one do you think is more pleasing to the eye
Tang Yun is not only tall, but also gentle and elegant, like a gentleman. Liu Biao was also such a person back then, so he naturally saw the shadow of himself in Tang Yun. In addition, Tang Yun is not without talent. Knowing how to cooperate vertically and horizontally, so let him act as an envoy, that is, a diplomat, in the Jingzhou Army. Tang Yun was even given the important task of going to Yangzhou this time, but who knew that Tang Yun died outside Xinye in the end!
"Pang Shanmin came to help the heroic spirit. But he is innocent!" Liu Biao couldn't help but sighed seeing the friendship between Pang Shanmin and Tang Yun.
"Mountain people, what do you think, the envoy is here, and you should talk to the envoy!" Duke Pang De said to his son.
Pang Shanmin nodded, knelt down and shouted, "My lord, Tang Yun is the elder brother of Shanmin and the hero of our Jingzhou. Die! Heaven is jealous of talent, God is jealous of talent!" Pang Shanmin shouted, tears streaming down his face.
"Not good!" Kuai Liang was also on the side, seeing such a scene in front of him, he smiled wryly, heroic spirit? corpse? coffin? Duke Pound! These things are mixed together, this is the rhythm of the palace. Kuai Liang was about to step forward but was stopped by his elder brother, who shook his head to let Kuai Liang look first.
"Although the heroic spirit is dead, but my lord, we can't chill the heart of the heroic spirit or the people behind him!" Pang Shanmin really expressed his feelings, without the slightest pretense. Even if there is no Liu Biao about Tang Yun's death, Pang Shanmin is also prepared to be responsible to the end.
"Tang Yun died for me in Jingzhou, so naturally he should be rewarded. There is still an inner house in Xiangyang, which should be given to the widow of the Tang family, the son of Tang Yun. The reward is one thousand and three thousand pieces of brocade silk." Liu Biao thought for a while and gave the reward immediately. out.
What he said made everyone present dumbfounded, because if the courtyard in the inner city was really counted, it would be worth five thousand gold, and it was a gift from Liu Biao. The daughter still has 3,000 bolts of brocade silk. It can be said that although the Tang family has no Tang Yun, they will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives. And with the sign of the heroic spirit, it can be said that his son can also be successful in official career. Whoever opposes Tang Yun's son is ignoring the heroic spirit. This is not a small crime!
With such a reward from Liu Biao, Pang Shanmin still knelt on the ground and couldn't get up.
"Shanmin, is there something else?!" Liu Biao was patient, because Mr. Pang De was there. Liu Biao really didn't care about Pang Shanmin alone.
"Pang Shanmin thanked his lord for his kindness to his dead brother Tang Yun, but the mountain people didn't think about these rich and prosperous clothes. What the mountain people wanted was justice!" Could it make Tang Yun's wife and son hungry
"justice?!"
"Yes, justice. The late brother Tang Yun died for me in Jingzhou, and died outside Xinye. My lord should avenge Tang Yun and my Jingzhou! Seek justice!" Pang Shanmin looked at Liu Biao with twinkling eyes. This is for Liu Biao to send troops. Pang Shanmin said a word. Immediately, many scribes covered their faces and laughed. They had discussed in the hall for so long that they wanted to send troops to fight Liu Wei with Liu Bei! But was speechless by what Kuai Liang said. It's all right now, such a Pang Shanmin has been completed with such a kneeling and supporting the official, they are all regretting that they knew it was so simple, wouldn't it be enough to just carry Tang Yun's coffin! Of course, they also knew that it was because of another good father behind them.
If they had been captured by Liu Biao, they would have been thrown into prison.
"Pang Shanmin. This Tang Yun was not killed by the king of Shu!" Kuai Liang was about to stand up and retort.
"My lord, Qishan died for Jingzhou. If you don't uphold justice for him, I'm afraid everyone in Jingzhou will not accept it!" Pang Degong directly blocked Kuai Liang and also blocked Liu Biao. Liu Biao still doesn't want to fight with him. Liu Mang went to war. After all, he still wanted to speculate, but he didn't want to really offend anyone. But now I have to do it. This Lord Pang De has already driven him to a dead end. If Liu Biao does not send troops, then it is true that Pang Degong said that he is sorry for everyone in Jingzhou. Pang Degong's prestige is very high in Jingzhou, if he messes up. Whether he, the lord of Jingzhou, can sit still is a question.
"If the lord does not send troops, I will not accept it, and Jingzhou will not accept it!" Over there, the disciples and old officials of Lord Pang De also knelt down in unison.
"My lord, it must not be like this!"
"Second brother!" Kuai Yue hurriedly grabbed his younger brother, he could see Liu Biao's struggle, but now he couldn't change anything, instead of going up and being used as a punching bag, it's better to let nature take its course and find another opportunity.
"Phew!" Liu Biao took a deep breath, he really didn't expect that Pound Guild would put such a big hat on his head. A scribe in the opposition can influence the decision-making of a state. This is indisputably regarded as a big dispute. At this point, we can only prepare to send troops. Liu Biao was really afraid of Lord Pang De.
"Hey!" Mr. Pang De looked at Liu Biao's expression. He knew that Liu Biao was more guarded against him, but he would still do this, because the one kneeling on the ground was his son, and he didn't want his son to be depressed like this. Can use hatred to spread his anger.
"Come here, pass on my order, follow Changsha Huangzu, and you can set off to hand over Changsha's affairs and return to Xiangyang to command 30,000 infantry and march into Xinye to dispatch all affairs in Xinye!" Jiang Xia, the remaining generals are Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, and Huang Zu. Cai Mao and Zhang Yun are good at the water army, but Lu Zhan is blind, and Huang Zu is one of the few fighters in Liu Biao's hands. Although he is old A little bit, but it can be regarded as one of the dwarfs.
Hearing that Liu Biao was going to send troops, Pang Tong was the most excited person present. He really didn't expect that his elder brother would help him in the end, forcing the palace. He also didn't expect that his uncle was so capable. , Pang Tong's eyes were about to look over, but unexpectedly saw his uncle's sharp eyes, Pang Tong panicked, and immediately avoided it.
When Pang Shanmin heard that Liu Biao was going to send troops, he felt more of a need for revenge.
And the person who sighed is naturally Kuai Liang, Liu Bei, the last three attacks on Yangzhou failed to win Yangzhou, and now they can still dream of defeating Shouchun and winning Yangzhou! Want to dominate the Central Plains? Impossible, the most is to check and balance Liu Mang, but what kind of neighbor is the best for Jingzhou now, that is the overlord of the Central Plains, because Cao Cao, the biggest enemy of Jingzhou, is almost full of Hebei. If you make a move, you will naturally go south to Jingzhou. If there is an overlord in the Central Plains, it will be very difficult for Cao Cao to go south. If not, then after Cao Cao wiped out the princes of the Central Plains, Jingzhou will be next.
And the reason why Kuai Liang was uncomfortable looking at Liu Bei was that Liu Bei was too ambitious, and he was also an ally of Jingzhou's mortal enemy Jiangdong Sun Ce. If you seek skin from a tiger, you can only be swallowed by the tiger in the end. Haven't you seen Zhang Xiu's ending? cruel to the extreme
Just when Kuai Liang was helpless, a messenger suddenly rushed towards the prefect's mansion on a horse: "Hurry up for eight hundred miles, hurry up for eight hundred miles! Liu Mang's army, Liu Mang's army!" The orderly shouted very loudly. He was in such a hurry that he couldn't utter a word at all.
