When Pang Tong said this, the scene on the screen changed.
The remains and ruins of Jing State after many battles appeared, and there were also scenes of people from Jing State flowing into other places.
At the same time, the scene of Yizhou's fertile land was played.
Comparing the two, the difference was clear at a glance.
The people of the world were filled with emotions and agreed with Pang Tong's words.
From this perspective, Yizhou was indeed more suitable for development than Jingzhou.
Through the previous few evolutions, everyone knew that Liu Bei had indeed grown stronger in Yizhou.
From all the signs, it was clear that Pang Tong's suggestion was the most correct.
At this moment, Liu Bei was still hesitant and said worriedly,""The reason why I can have my current achievements is because I have always been generous, benevolent, loyal, and trustworthy.
If in order to seize Yizhou and abandon benevolence and righteousness, lose faith in the world, how can it do?”
Pang Tong continued to advise," My Lord, the world is in chaos now. If we want to achieve great things, we can't stick to the rules. We must know how to adapt to the situation and know how to make choices.
Moreover, annexing the weak, attacking the dark, taking advantage of the situation, and repaying them with righteousness had always been valued by the ancients.
As long as he succeeded, he would give Liu Zhang a piece of land and let him enjoy the rest of his life.
Who would say that you are treacherous?
If my lord doesn't take the opportunity to occupy Yizhou now, Yizhou will also be occupied by others.
At that time, the lord would have no way out and it would be too late for regrets.”
After Liu Bei heard this, he no longer hesitated and left behind a portion of his generals and soldiers to guard Jingzhou.
He led Pang Tong and tens of thousands of soldiers to Yizhou to meet Liu Zhang in Fu City.
Pang Tong secretly persuaded Liu Bei to hold Liu Zhang hostage at the banquet and seize Yizhou, but Liu Bei refused.
Liu Zhang treated Liu Bei and the others with a grand reception and gave him a lot of military rations. He also gave Liu Bei the most important military fortress in the north of Yizhou, Baishui Pass, so that he could lead his troops here to resist Zhang Lu.
In the 17th year of Jian 'an, 212, Zhang Song secretly persuaded Liu Bei to seize Yizhou, but his elder brother Zhang Su exposed him.
Liu Zhang was furious and executed Zhang Song.
Liu Bei and Liu Zhang broke off completely and asked Pang Tong for a solution.
"My lord," Pang Tong bowed,"I have three plans for you to choose from."”
"What's your plan?" Liu Bei quickly asked.”
Pang Tong slowly said," We should immediately select elite soldiers and strong generals. We should travel quickly day and night to launch a sneak attack on Chengdu. We can settle the situation in one fell swoop. This is the best plan.
Yang Huai and Gao Pei were famous generals of Yizhou, and they were in charge of two elite armies, both of which were guarding dangerous passes.
We can pretend to return to Jing State and invite them to meet us. Then, we can take the opportunity to kill them.
The elite troops under his control will not be commanded or guarded at the dangerous passes. We can then drive straight into Chengdu and attack it. This is a trap.
Retreating to White Emperor City and continuing to develop in Jing Prefecture, then slowly attacking Yi Prefecture in the future, this was the next plan.
If my lord continues to hesitate, we might as well leave as soon as possible. If we stay any longer, there will be a disaster.”
Liu Bei thought about it carefully and adopted the middle plan of the three plans.
He successfully killed Yang Huai and Gao Pei, and led his troops to attack Chengdu.
Wherever the army passed by, they were all on guard. It did not take long for them to reach Fu City.
In Fucheng, Liu Bei held a banquet to entertain the soldiers, full of pride.
Half-drunk, Liu Bei said to Pang Tong,"Sir, do you still feel happy at today's banquet?”
Pang Tong's face was expressionless as he said indifferently,"To attack other countries for pleasure is not a benevolent teacher.”
Liu Bei was already a little drunk. He said angrily,""In the past, when King Wu conquered Zhou, there were also songs and dances. Could it be that they were not benevolent teachers?
Your words don't enter my ears. Get out.”
Hearing this, Pang Tong stood up and left without a word.
But soon, Liu Bei regretted it and quickly invited Pang Tong back.
Pang Tong returned to his original position and lowered his head to eat and drink. He did not look at Liu Bei, nor did he apologize.
"Sir, who do you think was at fault in our discussion just now?" Liu Bei asked.”
Pang Tong raised his head to look at him and said,"We are all at fault."
Liu Bei laughed loudly, and the banquet resumed its joyous atmosphere.
In the 19th year of Jian 'an, 214, Liu Bei surrounded Ruicheng.
Pang Tong was the military advisor and followed the army to attack the city.
Suddenly, Zhuge Liang sent a letter. After reading it, Liu Bei said to Pang Tong,"Sir, Zhuge Liang said in his letter that he calculated the Taiyi number at night. This year is Gui Si, and the Star of Kang is in the west.
Also look at the dry elephant, Venus in the city of the dividing line.
This sign should be on the general's body, must be ominous.
We should go back to Jingzhou first and discuss it carefully.
Pang Tong thought to himself,"This must be because Zhuge Liang is afraid that I will conquer Xichuan and make contributions, so he deliberately used this letter to hinder my plan."”
After thinking about it, he said to Liu Bei," My lord, I've already calculated the Taiyi number. I already know that the Star of Vigor is in the west. This hexagram means that my lord must obtain Xichuan."
I've also divined astronomy and know that Venus is coming to Ruicheng.
And this is the first to kill Shu general consensus, the bad omen has come true.
My lord, don't worry too much. You should attack quickly. If you delay, there will be changes.”
Seeing this, Liu Bei gave up on the idea of retreating and continued to lead his army forward.
Seeing this, everyone in the world had an inexplicable feeling in their hearts.
"Why do I feel that Pang Tong is going to die?”
