"Pang Shiyuan, you are nonsense!"

"My lord, we only have Jingzhou, a place of four battles, and the enemy may invade us at any time, and we may be in danger of overthrowing.

We must make a response now, and we cannot be as timid as before, lord..."

"But if you do this, how can the imperial court be so dignified?" Liu Bei looked at Pang Tong, who was working hard for him, and felt that this man was really unpredictable.

He plans for himself wholeheartedly, which shows his loyalty, but what he plans is too ruthless and even completely reckless.

This forced Liu Bei to be cautious...

"The majesty of the imperial court can only be managed by the imperial court, so what does it have to do with us?"

"Nonsense..."

"Lord!" Pang Tong directly interrupted Liu Bei's words and pointed his finger at the things on the desk again, "Are these things forged by us, or are they things that His Majesty wants to do but can't do?"

"...."

Liu Bei, who had just returned to the camp, was frightened by a surprise given to him by Pang Tong.

The seal of the general who conquered the west, a message calling on the heroes of the world to attack Cao Cao's traitors, and also stamped with your majesty's seal...

There was also the appointment of Shanyang County Captain...especially the content written in the appointment edict, which made Liu Bei shudder.

"If you make Zhang Wenyuan the captain of Shanyang County, you are going to stab Li Dian in the heart."

Liu Bei did not answer Pang Tong's previous words, but couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the things in front of him.

"When I was preparing to travel to the Central Plains, I had many contacts with Wen Yuan and others, and I also knew about the war that year.

That year, Cao Mengde sent troops to Xuzhou to avenge his father and massacred Xuzhou... It was Lu Fengxian who joined Chen Gongtai and others to sneak attack Yanzhou and solved the disaster in Xuzhou.

It was that battle. After Cao Mengde returned to the army, he fought with Lu Bu in Yanzhou for more than a year.

In order to frighten Cao's traitorous troops and accumulate food and grass, Li Feng, a general under Lu Fengxian, took the initiative to invite Lu Bu to Chengshi.

He wanted to recruit the Li clan, but was refused. After the two sides fought, Lu Bu was defeated first and then won.

In the second year of Xingping, the Li family of the Cheng family was finally massacred. That battle almost caused the Li family to disappear from Yanzhou, and was also the source of the deadly feud between Li Dian and the generals in Lu Bu's army.

You...not only appointed Wen Yuan as the captain of Shanyang County in the name of His Majesty, but you also kept mentioning the events of Yanzhou in the appointment letter.

You’re not for Wen Yuan, you’re obviously for Li Dian!”

"Haha... my lord is wise!"

"This plan...."

"Isn't this a good plan?" Pang Tong directly interrupted Liu Bei's rebuttal, "Cao Mengde is indeed very lucky.

He has many famous generals under his command, each of whom not only has his or her own abilities, but also has great military exploits.

Li Mancheng is a Confucian general, Zhang Wenyuan is unparalleled in bravery, Yu Wenze cleans up military discipline, and Zhu Wenbo is flexible and changeable...

But this general may be good, but these people are dissatisfied with each other, and they also have hatred among themselves. There is no way to bring them together.

But his subordinate Zhao Yan was one of the Four Elders of Yingchuan back then, and his moral character... well... his moral character was really average.

But he has a special ability, that is, he is very tactful. It is precisely because of his existence that such bitter enemies as Zhang Wenyuan and Li Mancheng, who have deep hatred, can work together.

Zhao Yan has this ability, but after all it is just a matter of reconciliation.

If Pang sends this letter of appointment, the anger in Li Dian's heart will definitely be ignited again, and now it seems that Nanyang is about to fight.

We are indeed not as strong as Cao Mengde, but if they have many internal problems, then our chances of victory will be much greater..."

After Pang Tong finished speaking, he seemed still afraid that Liu Bei would not agree, so he continued.

"Lord, if this strategy can really succeed, we can continue to use it.

Zhu Ling abandoned Yuan Shao and joined Cao Mengde. He once became Cao Mengde's confidant, but his status has declined again and again in recent years.

Moreover, this person also has a strong character, and has always been disliked by Cao Mengde.

If we can win over this person in the name of His Majesty and let Cao Mengde know about it, then he will definitely have doubts in his heart..."

"This... Zhu Ling is his general, and all his family members are in Yecheng..."

"Although Zhu Ling dies, his wife will definitely be raised by Cao Mengde!" Pang Tong looked unconcerned, "In order to save Cao Mengde's defeat in Wancheng, Yu Jin killed those Qingzhou soldiers who looted the place.

We can give the Qingzhou soldiers the responsibility of supervising Yu Jin's subordinates. Those people were a group of thieves and bandits back then. Calling them Yellow Turban thieves feels a bit insulting to Zhang Jiao, a great master.

Therefore, people like them...how can they reason? As long as they have such rights, they will definitely be moved by the situation.

Wanton revenge..."

Liu Bei made Pang Tong break into a cold sweat after saying these words, but he still shook his head.

"Cao Mengde is also a hero. He will never let me wait like this..."

"Of course Cao Mengde will not sit back and watch us do this, but before, Kong Ming expanded the battlefield to the entire Nanyang County, and even to the edges of Runan County and Jiangxia County.

This battlefield stretches for hundreds of miles. Once a war breaks out, we can completely lure them away and expand the battlefield.

In this way, even if Cao Mengde can control it once, he cannot control it every time..."

"This..." Liu Bei looked at Pan Tong and hesitated, but still asked, "Is this what Kong Ming meant?"

"Yes!" Pang Tong pulled Zhuge Liang out without politeness. Anyway, as long as Liu Bei was willing to use this strategy, he didn't mind letting himself suffer some injustice.

Anyway, that guy is not here. Pang Tong doesn’t believe that he can still refute him in Jiangxia!

"This... Kong Ming would really set up such a plan?"

"Although it is not entirely his plan, Kong Ming must have acquiesced, otherwise why would he meet Shen Yi and send it to Pang?"

"This..." Liu Bei was still a little hesitant. He had never liked such methods, and he had never been around someone as clever as Pang Tong.

I felt a bit uncomfortable for a while.

However, with Pang Tong's sharp words, even Zhuge Liang would not dare to claim a guaranteed victory, let alone Liu Bei?

However, in just one stick of incense, he was already convinced by Pang Tong's many reasons, and then he nodded for some reason and handed over his two-pronged sword.

Let Pang Tong take full responsibility for this war...

After obtaining the double-pronged sword, Pang Tong naturally had no hope. After returning Shangyong to the governor Shen Dan, only Shi Tao was left to handle government affairs.

Move all the troops including Chen Shi away so as not to put more pressure on Shen Dan.

Then from Shangyong County, they directly entered the side of Nanyang County. At this time, the Nanyang battlefield was completely chaotic.

"Wen Pin of Wancheng held back Xiahou Dun, Huang Zhong was fighting with Lu Zhao and Feng Kai, and General Wei Yan fought with Li Dian in Xinye.

Zhang Liao and General Yun Chang... how come they both fought!"

Looking at the current battle situation in Nanyang County, Pang Tong's eyes grew bigger and bigger, and his heart became more and more excited....
