After being abandoned by Liu Bei, Cao Cao begged me to be a military adviser

The Hanzhong army and the Xichuan army are in the same situation.

Now that Cao Cao is helping him, he is naturally extremely brave.

But Liu Bei is not a vegetarian either.

Stay at the city gate and refuse to fight.

The battle lasted for more than a month, and the Hanzhong army lost more than half, but failed to break through Fushui Pass.

For a while, Cao Cao was caught in a dilemma.

Xichuan was difficult to capture, Jiangdong captured Chaisang City, and made trouble in Hefei.

If you don't withdraw your troops, you are afraid that Hefei will change.

If the army is withdrawn, Liu Bei, with long wings, will definitely take the opportunity to seize Xichuan and stand on his own.

At that time, it will be even more difficult to attack Xichuan.

But if the stalemate with Liu Bei in Hanzhong continues, the autumn harvest will be missed, which is related to the military ration issue in the coming year, and Cao Cao has to pay attention to this matter.

In the early morning of this day, Cao Cao received a battle report from Hefei.

Xu Chu introduced: "Prime Minister, this is Mr. Ziyu's personal letter!"

"Hahaha!" Cao Cao laughed loudly, "We haven't seen each other for several months, I miss Ziyu very much, and it's a relief to read his handwritten letter!"

Pang Tong cupped his hands and signaled: "Master Jijiu previously ambushed the Jiangdong Army and won a complete victory. At this time, there must be better news!"

Cheng Yuhe and Xun You on the side also nodded in agreement.

Cao Cao opened the letter to check it himself, and then laughed.

"hahahahahahahaha!"

Pang Tong glanced at the letter and suddenly turned pale with shock: "This, this, this..."

"Prime Minister, what's the good news?" Cheng Yu couldn't help but ask.

Cao Cao immediately handed the letter to him, and said: "Jiangdong wanted to withdraw, Zhang Liao took advantage of the chaos to rob the camp, Zhao Yun captured Sun Quan alive!"

As soon as these words came out, the few people in the big tent were all dumbfounded.

"Sun Quan was captured alive?" Xun You couldn't believe it.

Cheng Yu said: "Once this news comes out, I'm afraid it will shock Xichuan and frighten Liu Bei!"

"Young Master and Lord Jijiu have made great achievements for the prime minister!" Pang Tong smiled and shook his feather fan.

Who is Sun Quan?

That is the Lord of Jiangdong.

The capture of Sun Quan in World War I is undoubtedly the greatest achievement since the imperial court set off.

Cao Cao said: "The situation in Jiangdong has been settled, so I don't have to worry about it!"

That's right, Sun Quan was captured alive, and Jiang Dong would never dare to do anything else.

Cao Cao immediately took up a pen to revise a letter, and handed over his Yitian sword to Xu Chu.

"Go to Hefei quickly, and hand over this sword to Cao Pi. All matters in Jiangdong will be discussed and decided by him and Liu Xian, and you don't need to ask me again!"

"Obey!" Xu Chu clasped his fists in both hands, got Jianxin and immediately left the camp of the Chinese army.

Cao Cao put away Liu Xian's personal letter and handed it to Pang Tong.

"Shi Yuan went to Xichuan for me, and handed this letter to Liu Zhang. If Liu Bei asks, he can speak up!"

"Obey!" Pang Tong clasped his fists in both hands, and withdrew from the Chinese army tent after receiving the letter.

The situation in Jiangdong has been settled, and when the news spread to Xichuan, Liu Zhang was shocked and Liu Bei broke his nerve.

Without Jiangdong's concern, whether it is retreating or advancing, the initiative is in Cao Cao's hands.

Pang Tong entered Fushui Pass the next day.

When Liu Bei learned that Pang Tong had entered Xichuan as an envoy, he went out to greet him in person.

As soon as they met, they held Pang Tong's hand.

"Shiyuan, goodbye to Jiaozhou, I miss you so much!"

Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "Shiyuan's trip must be going to Chengdu!"

"Exactly!" Pang Tong nodded.

Liu Bei said: "The army has already prepared good wine, Shi Yuan might as well rest for one night before going to Chengdu!"

"Being respectful is worse than obeying orders!" Pang Tong cupped his fists and followed Liu Bei into the barracks.

Liu Bei summoned Wen Wu and Pang Tong to drink together.

While pushing the cups and changing the cups, Pang Tong was overwhelmed with alcohol and began to speak nonsense.

Liu Bei helped Pang Tong to his couch and slept together.

"Dare to ask Shi Yuan, how is the battle in Hefei?"

"Hahaha!" Pang Tong laughed loudly: "I came here for this purpose!"

"Oh?" Liu Bei was surprised: "Could it be that Cao Jun won?"

Pang Tong said: "After winning for a while, the Prime Minister is smiling from ear to ear!"

Liu Bei shook his head: "How did I hear that Zhou Yu captured Chaisang City, and Sun Quan captured Wan City!"

"Hahaha!" Pang Tong laughed loudly, "Xuande didn't know something. Liu Ziyu won the surprise attack on Sun Quan in Xiaoyaojin, and then took advantage of Sun Quan's retreat to rob the camp!"

Liu Bei nodded: "So that's the case. It is reasonable for Sun Quan to be defeated when Liu Xian went to Hefei in person!"

"I don't know that the army was defeated, but Sun Quan was captured alive!" Pang Tong sat up excitedly while speaking.

"What?" Liu Bei also started to do it: "Marquis Wu and Sun Quan were captured alive?"

"Exactly!" Pang Tong nodded: "Changshan Zhao Zilong did it!"

Liu Bei was shocked: "So, Sun Quan was defeated by Liu Xian and Zhao Yun?"

"Exactly!" Pang Tong nodded, and asked Liu Bei with a smile: "These two are both your former subordinates of Liu Xuande, how do you feel today?"

In an instant, Liu Bei had mixed feelings in his heart, and finally all turned into sourness.

Pang Tong asked, "Why doesn't Xuande say anything?"

"Hey!" Liu Bei sighed, "It's because I'm incompetent, I don't know Ziyu's talent, I don't use Zilong's ability, I regret it!"

"Is this true?" Pang Tong asked Liu Bei.

Liu Bei smiled wryly: "I'm not Cao Mengde, why should I be so stubborn at this time!"

"Well said!" Pang Tong smiled and nodded.

"It's getting late, Shi Yuan, let's rest!"

As soon as Liu Bei finished speaking, Pang Tong was already lying on the couch and snoring.

But where can Liu Bei sleep.

Cautiously got off the bed, and as soon as he stepped out of the Chinese army tent, he saw Zhuge Liang who had been waiting for a long time.

"Why doesn't Kong Ming sleep?"

Zhuge Liang chuckled: "I'm in the Lord's news, how is the battle in Hefei?"

"Hey!" Liu Bei sighed and went to Zhuge Liang's tent.

The two sat down, and Liu Bei sighed: "I lost, I lost!"

"Who lost?" Zhuge Liang asked Liu Bei.

Liu Bei shook his head: "Sun Quan was defeated and captured alive!"

"What?" Zhuge Liang was stunned: "Sun Quan was captured alive?"

"It's what Liu Xian and Zhao Yun did!" Liu Bei shook his head and sighed continuously, grabbed Zhuge Liang's hand and asked, "Kong Ming, have I been wrong all these years?"

Chapter 272 Pang Tong entered Chengdu, Liu Zhang was frightened

Seeing his lord so sad and sentimental, Zhuge Liang only felt a pang in his heart.

Liu Bei grabbed the back of Zhuge Liang's hand and said very seriously: "Please Kong Ming tell the truth!"

Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan and looked in the direction of Jingzhou: "If the Lord is at fault, it's not only Liu Xian and Zhao Yun who are at fault!"

"Oh?" Liu Bei was shocked, he didn't expect Zhuge Liang to say that.

Zhuge Liang added: "Over the years, my lord has missed many opportunities."

Liu Bei bowed his hands to Zhuge Liang and said, "Please listen to the military master!"

Zhuge Liangliang nodded: "When I was in Jingzhou, my lord did not dare to take Jingzhou because of benevolence and righteousness, but Cao Cao took advantage of the situation to take Jingzhou!"

"Hey!" Liu Bei let out a long sigh.

Zhuge Liang said again: "Cao Cao went south, the lord took the people across the river, and missed the best opportunity to retreat!"

"That's right!" Liu Bei nodded with emotion.

Zhuge Liang also said: "When I was in Jiaozhou, I had the opportunity to stand on my own behalf on behalf of Shixie, but my lord still missed it!"

"Yes!" Liu Bei nodded.

When he was in Jiaozhou, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu suggested that he kill Shi Xie and take control of the entire Jiaozhou.

And Zhuge Liang's suggestion was to seize the military power of Shixie with a glass of wine and force him to abdicate.

But Liu Bei did not agree, but chose to go to Liu Zhang in Yizhou.

Not to mention forcing Pang Tong to assist him.

Zhuge Liang shook his head: "If you're wrong, my lord can be said to be wrong again and again!"

Liu Bei didn't speak, his eyes were already red.

Zhuge Liang said: "My lord's mistakes are all due to benevolence. If benevolence is wrong today, my lord is very wrong!"

For a while, Liu Bei fell into silence.

Since he started his army, he has admired benevolence and virtue.

Establish trust with benevolence, and take benevolence as the foundation.

Liu Bei smiled: "If there is no benevolence, what is the difference between me and that Cao thief?"

Zhuge Liang shook his head: "My lord, if Gao Zu had practiced benevolence and virtue back then, he might not have the great Han Dynasty today!"

"Hey!" Liu Bei sighed, for the first time he felt that his outlook on life was subverted by Liu Xian.

Zhuge Liang said: "The lord has one more chance now, and it is also the last chance!"

Liu Bei's eyes lit up, "Do you mean Yizhou?"

"Exactly!" Zhuge nodded his head, "If my lord considers benevolence and virtue difficult to obtain from Yizhou, if my lord doesn't care about benevolence and virtue, Yizhou is within reach!"

Liu Bei didn't speak, and fell into deep thought for a while.

At dawn the next day, Liu Bei personally sent Pang Tong out of the camp.

Go out of Fushui Pass and pass Mianzhu Pass.

Pang Tong finally came to Chengdu Mansion.

Zhang Song went out of the city to greet him personally, and after arranging to stay at the post house, he took Pang Tong to meet the lord Liu Zhang.

Don't look at the tense battle between the two sides.

But each has its own rhetoric.

Cao Cao's statement is that the crusade against the rebels Ma Chao and Liu Bei has nothing to do with Xichuan.

But Liu Zhang's statement is that the rebels Ma Chao and Liu Bei occupied Fushui Pass to stand on their own, and Chengdu dared not move rashly.

Therefore, Cao Cao and Liu Zhang did not hurt their peace.

But both sides understood that once Liu Bei was defeated, Cao Cao would enter Hanzhong.
