"If Mr. helps me, I will donate Echeng to Uncle Liu, and in addition, I will give you another 10,000 stones of grain and grass and three thousand elite soldiers in Jiangdong." Sun Quan saw Zhuge Liang's idea at a glance and directly gave a huge price.

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Liang nodded with satisfaction.

It seems that this incident really makes Sun Quan unable to sleep or eat, otherwise he would not have been so generous.

"Since the minister of Wu asked me, I should do my best to help Wu Hou solve this problem." Zhuge Liang bowed with a smile, "Please wait for the Lord Wu and let me think about it."

"Sir, please!" Sun Quan also knew that he couldn't come, and said with a smile.

Just as Sun Quan was waiting patiently and Zhuge Liang was thinking about a solution, a messenger walked in from outside.

"Report to the lord, there is a ugly student who claims to be Pang Tong and seeks his opinion."

Pang Tong?

Sun Quan and Zhuge Liang looked at the messenger in surprise at the same time.

Didn’t he offer a chain of iron chains in Cao’s camp? Why did he come back?

Has the plan been completed?

"Come in quickly." Sun Quan was overjoyed and said quickly.

The messenger retreated.

Soon, Pang Tong walked in from outside. After seeing Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong was a little surprised: "Kong Ming is here too!"

"Shi Yuan, I haven't seen you for a few days. Why is your complexion so much different? But the plan failed?" Zhuge Liang found that Pang Tong's face was pale and his steps were sluggish, and immediately said shocked.

"Haha..." Pang Tong shook his head disdainfully, "Cao Cao is proud and his generals are arrogant. How can they detect my plan?"

"When I left Cao's camp, the major warships of Cao's army had been hooked up with iron cables. The iron cables had already been completed. You can inform the Grand Commander and make the next plan."

"good!"

Sun Quan was overjoyed, but Zhuge Liang frowned.

"Shi Yuan, although Cao Cao had already fallen into the trap, with Cao Cao's suspicious personality, if you suddenly leave, he will have some doubts." Zhuge Liang said.

"Kong Ming, don't worry, I have made a complete plan." Pang Tong briefly said the plan to escape from the shell.

Suddenly, Zhuge Liang's eyes were bright, and Sun Quan praised him even more.

"Mr. Shi Yuan's method of escape is very wonderful, so Cao's thief must not be able to detect it."

Sun Quan stepped forward excitedly, looked at Pang Tong and said, "If you win this way, Mr. Shiyuan should remember his first merit."

"Now my command is in the process of employing people. I wonder if Mr. Shi Yuan can help me?"

I heard Sun Quan's words.

Zhuge Liang did not stop him.

Because he knew very well that Pang Tong was a proud man.

Although Sun Quan was a wise ruler, he was not suitable for Pang Tong.

"Thank you, Mr. Wu, for your attention, but I am from the same school as Master Kong Ming, and I have decided to assist Uncle Liu with him." Pang Tong said in a humble and arrogant manner.

Sun Quan could not hide his disappointment on his face.

At the same time, some wonder.

How could Liu Bei have such great charm without land and soldiers? He actually made the dragon and phoenix chick compete for the first time to succeed.

Mr. Shui Jing once said that if you can get one of the dragons and phoenixes, you can win the world.

Now both Liu Bei and others have to be the master of the world?

Thinking.

Sun Quan couldn't help feeling sad.

"Forget it, since you have a heart, I won't let you make things difficult for me." Sun Quan sighed regretfully and said, "But Mr. Shiyuan is here just in time. Please join forces with Kong Ming to help me."

Pang Tong looked at Zhuge Liang in confusion.

Then Zhuge Liang told Pang Tong about Sun Zhao.

"What a poisonous plan, what a treacherous person."

"A word of killing people is a word of killing the heart."

Pang Tong took a deep breath, and at the same time he was a little excited.

This is the excitement of meeting an opponent.

"Wu Hou, wait for me to discuss with Kong Ming for a moment, and I will definitely give you a complete solution." After coming back to my senses, Pang Tong bowed to Sun Quan and said.

"please!"

Sun Quan returned to the stool and sat down, quietly drinking tea and waiting.

Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong whispered in a low voice to discuss feasible strategies.

After many overthrows, finally, both of them showed smiles on their faces.

"Only Shi Yuan can think of such a strategy, I am not as good as you." Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan and said with a head.

In terms of strange plots and deceits, he is indeed inferior to Pang Tong.

"Kong Ming is so modest. If it weren't for Kong Ming's assistance, how could I come up with a solution so quickly?" Pang Tong praised Zhuge Liang.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Seeing this, Sun Quan was overjoyed and stood up and asked, "Dare you dare to ask the two gentlemen, but is there a way?"

"Please say it." Zhuge Liang took two steps back and took the initiative to give up his position.

Pang Tong was not humble and nodded at Sun Quan and said, "This plan can not only solve Sun Zhao for the Marquis of Wu, but also win over the hearts of civil and military officials in Jiangdong."

Sun Quan said excitedly: "Sir, please teach me."

"Please wait for the left and right." Pang Tong looked around and said solemnly.

Sun Quan nodded, knowing what happened next, the fewer people know, the better.

Then he waved his hand.

All the guards serving in the hall retreated, leaving only the three of them.

"Sir, you can say it." Sun Quan said.

"The Marquis of Wu can make great efforts to send Sun Zhao back to Wu County to join the Sun family genealogy."

"From Chaisang back to Wujun, Wuhou can go to Wanling. The mountains are high and forests are numerous, and close to the Yangtze River. It is a natural ambush place."

"The Marquis of Wu can send his confidant, wearing Cao's army armor, to rob Sun Zhao from Wanling, escape into the Yangtze River, and then secretly send Sun Zhao back to Wu County for strict supervision."

"Of course, the Marquis of Wu can also kill Sun Zhao halfway, and eliminate future troubles forever."

When Pang Tong spoke, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Sun Zhao was originally the son of Gongsun Ce, the first lord of Jiangdong. If he learned that Sun Zhao was robbed by Cao's army, how could Jiangdong's civil and military officials give up?"

"At that time, the Marquis of Wu can make a concerted effort to win over the civil and military spirits of Jiangdong and fight against Cao Cao with all their might."

After hearing Pang Tong's words, Sun Quan just thought for a moment and became ecstatic.

This plan is feasible.

Not only did he solve the problem of Sun Zhao, but he also allowed Jiangdong civil and military officials to fight Cao Cao together from then on 0     .

Kill two birds with one stone!

As for how to deal with Sun Zhao, Sun Quan has not yet figured out.

After all, Sun Zhao is the son of his elder brother, and even if he asks him to kill him, he can't do anything.

"Forget it, let's take him into custody first, wait until I firmly sit in Jiangdong before letting him out."

Sun Quan is also a decisive person.

Although this plan is vicious, it is not a toxic husband.

Those who achieve great things do not care about minor matters.

After figuring it out, Sun Quan bowed to Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang.

"Thank you, both gentlemen for their help, I am grateful for your rights."

"But please keep the secret of this matter."

Sun Quan reminded.

"This is nature." Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang said back.

"Okay, I'll make arrangements now."

"By the way, I will send the seal and three thousand soldiers from Echeng to Wuchang later. Please accept the emperor's uncle at that time."

Sun Quan said.

"Thank you, Mr. Wu."

"We'll say goodbye."

Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong left.

Sun Quan quickly began to arrange the arrangements according to the plan.

While preparing troops and escorting Sun Zhao back to Wu County, he returned to the Sun family genealogy.

On the other side, he arranged for his confidant to rush to Wanling, prepare for the fighting ship, put on the armor of Cao's army, and then hid in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to rob Sun Zhao.

Even, in order to ensure that this matter can be completed smoothly, it is not suspected.

Sun Quan had already made plans to wipe out the five hundred soldiers escorted.

Only by doing this can everyone believe that Sun Zhao was indeed robbed by Cao's army.

Only in this way can the determination of Jiangdong civil and military officials to unite against the enemy!

After the careful arrangements were over, Sun Quan breathed a sigh of relief.

Before I could lie down, I heard the sounds of nearby servants coming from outside the mansion.

"Miss, the lord has rested, you can't go in now."

When Sun Quan heard this, he knew who was coming.

A helpless look suddenly appeared on his face.

I had to force myself to hold on to my fatigue, put on a casual robe, and opened the door and walked out.

Outside the door, a woman wearing a fiery red armor, like a female general, was raising the whip in her hand and driving away the guards of the Wuhou Mansion.

"Second brother!"

When the woman saw Sun Quan, she glared at the guards, and then walked to Sun Quan.

"Shangxiang, why are you going to Chaisang for not staying in Wujun to accompany your mother?"

When Sun Quan met Sun Shangxiang, Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong and others also arrived in Wuchang.

Liu, Guan and Zhang had just returned to the camp not long ago.

When Liu Bei learned that the two of them had returned, he quickly put down what they had and took Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to meet them in person.

"Military advisor, Mr. Shi Yuan!" Liu Bei shouted cordially.

"Lord, pack your bags quickly and we will set off to Echeng tomorrow." Zhuge Liang said with a smile.

Liu Bei was stunned, and then he grabbed Zhuge Liang's big hand in surprise: "Military advisor, did Sun Quan agree to lend us Echeng?"

"It's not a loan, it's a gift." Zhuge Liang chuckled and said, "My lord will have a city in the future. On the way back with Shi Yuan, I have already figured out a plan for the lord to find Jiangxia. I just waited for Cao Sun to fight and seize Jiangxia to serve as the foundation."

"Okay, okay, okay!" Liu Bei was overjoyed, "Thanks to the military advisor and Shi Yuan."

After saying that, he looked at Guan Yu next to him, Zhang Fei, "Second brother, third brother, hurry up and prepare for the banquet. I will go and return with the two military advisors tonight."

"Good." Zhang Fei also smiled, "Second brother, let's go."

"Third brother, go."

Guan Yu stroked his beard and went out with Zhang Fei with a smile.

The next few days.

Liu Bei led his troops across the river to garrison Echeng. The original more than 10,000 troops, plus the 3,000 elite troops donated by Sun Quan and the more than 2,000 troops originally garrisoned in the city.

He barely gathered up 20,000 troops.

Finally, he had his own city. Logically, Liu Bei should be happy.

However, at this time, Liu Bei still had a bitter face, supported his hands on the wall of Echeng, looking south.

There is the direction of Chaisang.

"Does your lord miss Zilong?" Pang Tong asked with a smile beside Liu Bei.

"No," Liu Bei nodded, "I gave up on guarding Jiangling, and I asked Zilong to cut off the back, so he became strangers to me."

"I know that I owe Zilong."

Liu Bei is still full of regrets.

I felt that in that situation at that time, Zhao Yun should not be left to cut off the rear.

"Haha, lord, don't worry. When I write a letter to Zilong, I will definitely get him back to the lord." Pang Tong said.

"Take it seriously?" Liu Bei turned around and looked at Pang Tong, with excitement in his eyes.

"But lord, remember that Zilong is a person of Xinyi. This is not only his advantage and his shortcomings. I advise him to come back with Xinyi. Whether he can keep Zilong in the future will also need to worry about whether he can keep Zilong in the future." Pang Tong's face was calm and solemnly reminded him.

The letter he planned to write was actually a bit difficult for others, so he forced Zhao Yun to return to Liu Bei with his loyalty.

But this is the most effective method at present.

He had to come up with this bad decision.

"Don't worry, as long as Zilong comes back, I will treat each other sincerely to influence his heart." Liu Bei said excitedly.

"Then I will go to 03 to prepare a letter and send it to Chaisang." Pang Tong shook his head.

There was no way. In order to recall Zhao Yun, he could only be a villain and do evil things.

soon.

Pang Tong wrote the letter, and after blowing it dry, he handed it over to a confidant.

"You can cross the river quickly and hand this letter to General Zhao in the name of Military Advisor Zhuge, and there must be no mistakes." Pang Tong ordered.

The reason why he did not use his own name was that he was worried that Zhao Yun would not accept his letter.

What's the use of letting him write so magnificently?

on the contrary.

Zhuge Liang was generous to Zhao Yun and had a deep relationship with him.

If he had learned about Zhuge Liang's letter, Zhao Yun would not have refused.

Pang Tong grasped Zhao Yun's thoughts tightly.

He believed that as long as he saw his letter, Zhao Yun would definitely come back even if he was reluctant.

"promise!"

After his confidant agreed, he left Echeng, drove a boat across the river, and arrived in Chaisang that night and met Zhao Yun.

at this time.

Zhao Yun's injury has almost healed and he has recovered seven or eight points of strength.

He was about to say goodbye to Zhou Yu, and went north to find his junior brother Su Chen.

But he received a letter from Zhuge Liang.

Thinking that Zhuge Liang treated him well on weekdays, Zhao Yun did not refuse and took the letter apart.

However, after a few glances, Zhao Yun's face turned red with shame. He directly pinched the letter paper in his hand and pinched it tightly.

"Military advisor, Yun has always respected you, why did he humiliate me so much?"

His chest was so angry that his chest was undulating, and the wound on his waist that had finally healed opened, and bright red blood flowed out, soaking the bandaged gauze.

But Zhao Yun seemed to have not noticed it and stood there blankly.

A full half of an incense stick.

Zhao Yun's stiff body slowly recovered, and he took a deep breath.

He stretched out his hand, opened Zhuge Liang's letter, and read it from the beginning.

The meaning of the letter is probably that Zhao Yun felt a strange intention when he saw Liu Bei’s weak power, and did not think of Liu Bei’s kindness of knowing his favor, Guan Zhang’s brotherhood, the friendship between the soldiers, Zhuge Liang’s appreciation, and was betrayed and wanted to leave Liu Bei.

It is also said that if Zhao Yun went north to join Cao Cao, he would recognize the thief as his father, which is no different from Lu Bu.

If you follow Sun Quan eastward, you will be vain and greedy for the prosperity of Jiangdong, and you will be a villain.

Only by returning to Liu Bei and changing one's heart and righteousness can one be a loyal person.

Coupled with Pang Tong's Spring and Autumn style, his literary talent is brilliant, and a letter is written with powerful words.

Zhao Yun was already loyal and righteous, and saw such a letter.

Even if I want to go north or go east, I don’t dare to go at this time.

I am afraid of being traitorous.

"well……"

Zhao Yun sighed deeply, grabbed the pack, and went to the horse house to take the Magnolia White Dragon Horse, intending to take a boat to Echeng to meet Liu Bei.

As soon as he left the house, he met Zhou Yu who came to look for him.

Seeing that Zhao Yun was about to leave, Zhou Yu was shocked.

"General Zhao, where are you going?" Zhou Yu asked in front of Zhao Yun.

"I received a letter from the military advisor and I am going to go to Echeng. Thank you for your care for Yun over the past few days. If you have the chance in the future, Yun will repay this kindness."

Zhao Yun said with a calm face.

"Zhuge Liang's letter?" Zhou Yu frowned. He knew about Jiangling. It was because of this that he wanted to conquer Zhao Yun.

only.

Zhao Yun and Liu Bei have long been in harmony with each other, so why can Zhuge Liang call Zhao Yun back with just one letter?

"Where is the letter? Can I be allowed to see it?" Zhou Yu said.

Zhao Yun was already angry because of the letters, and Zhou Yu was very grateful to him for his life.
