Pang Tong nodded obediently, but the disdain in his eyes was still strong.
"Teacher, according to Tong's opinion, if Liu Bei, the Mu of Xuzhou, cannot serve for two years, he will have to give up his position obediently!"
Xu Shu glared at Pang Yi fiercely, as if telling him, let's wait and see!
The two men stopped, but Sima Hui was not ready to end the discussion between them and looked directly at the youngest Zhuge Liang.
"Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong and Xu Shu each have a preference for Liu Zhang and Liu Bei. I wonder what you are thinking?"
Zhuge Liang raised his head and looked at Sima Hui's confused expression. He just opened his mouth and didn't say anything.
His heart was very complicated. Zhuge Liang was grateful to Liu Zhang.
Although they have been apart for more than ten years, Zhuge Liang always remembers the young man who treated him meticulously.
At that time, he was still in white, and others called him Liu Yanzong's true son. But to this day, when Liu Zhang is mentioned, who will think of Liu Yan first?
Zhuge Liang could never forget the gift of the book, but Zhuge Liang was extremely conflicted in his heart.
If Liu Zhang loses a series of battles and is trapped in Hanzhong, Zhuge Liang will not hesitate to go to help him to repay his past kindness.
But now that Liu Zhang is at the height of his power, I am afraid that he will soon become the top power in the world. If he goes there, he will not only be suspected of coveting power, but also have the intention of enjoying the gains.
What Zhuge Liang looks forward to most is to provide help in the snow, not the icing on the cake.
"Teacher, although Liu Bei occupies Xuzhou, his strength cannot be compared with General Wei Liu Zhang."
"First of all, Liu Zhang conquered the land of Yizhou city by city. Yizhou's more than 100,000 troops all obeyed Liu Zhang's orders. As long as Liu Zhang gives an order, the Yizhou family will be destroyed in an instant!"
"Liu Bei does not have such superior conditions. Xuzhou is jointly governed by him and the Xuzhou family. Not to mention that among the five counties in Xuzhou, only Pengcheng and Xiapi are nominally under his command. The other three counties are completely autonomous. Even though Pengcheng and Xiapi, It’s not entirely Liu Bei’s decision.”
"Especially the army that Tao Qian left behind is said to be completely controlled by the Xuzhou family. The troops Liu Bei can directly mobilize are extremely limited. Therefore, once the war begins, the entire command system in Xuzhou will be extremely difficult. How can we defeat the enemy?"
"After Yizhou defeated the coalition forces of Jingzhou and Liangzhou last year, there is no longer any threat. Now Jingzhou Liu Biao and Liangzhou Han Sui are hoping that Liu Zhang will not attack them every day!"
"Xuzhou is different. In the north there is Yuan Tan of Qingzhou, in the west there is Cao Cao of Yanzhou who is always coveting the five counties of Xuzhou, and in the south there is Yuan Shu who has great ambitions but few talents, but has an absolute advantage."
"No matter how you compare it, Liu Bei's journey was not only bumpy and difficult, but also dark! But Liu Zhang's future is bright..."
Pang Tongteng jumped up and looked at Xu Shu with a smile on his face, his nostrils almost raised to the sky with pride.
"Brother Yuanzhi, what do you think? I just say that Liu Bei will never achieve anything big just by trying to gain fame!"
Pang Tong knew that Xu Shu usually had the best relationship with Zhuge Liang, but now that even his close friends were not optimistic about Liu Bei, he wanted to see what else Xu Shu could say.
Unfortunately, the result disappointed Pang Tong. Xu Shu did not refute Pang Tong and looked thoughtful.
Zhuge Liang's words were well-founded and he analyzed the situation in Yizhou and Xuzhou very thoroughly, and Xu Shu suddenly woke up.
I hope Liu Shijun can save the day. . .
At the moment, Xu Shu could do nothing but pray for Liu Bei in his heart.
"Zhuge Liang, from what you say, you are also optimistic about General Wei Liu Zhang?"
Hearing Pang Degong's inquiry, Zhuge Liang nodded first, and then shook his head with a wry smile.
"My mentor, Yizhou is thousands of miles away from fertile land. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is definitely a land of abundance! The Qin State has unified the world, and Gaozu has become an emperor! Now that General Wei has established his power, no matter whether it is external or internal forces, it is absolutely difficult to shake it. !”
"Therefore, it doesn't really matter whether I or others are optimistic about Liu Zhang. Because Liu Zhang's rise is a foregone conclusion. It's just about how far he can go. Can he dominate the world with Yizhou like Gaozu, and succeed Guangwu? It is unknown whether the Han Dynasty will be revived again after that..."
Pang Degong's eyes flashed with approval. Zhuge Liang saw through the surface to see the essence. It was really not easy.
Although he had the highest opinion of Pang Tong, Zhuge Liang was already comparable to Pang Tong in the eyes of Pang Degong.
Just thinking that his two most proud students all fell in love with Liu Zhang, Pang Degong couldn't help but feel helpless, and the spy took advantage of Liu Zhang.
"Zhuge Liang, we will be adults in a few years. How about we go to Yizhou to join General Wei together?"
Pang Tong has been free and easy-going since he was a child, and he often speaks without thinking.
As a member of the Pang family, one of the four top aristocratic families in Jingzhou, he actually wanted to go out and join the monarchs of other states and counties. If Liu Biao knew about this, I don’t know what he would think!
If it were the children of other aristocratic families, how would their elders dare to talk such nonsense!
However, Pang Tong was not an ordinary person, and Pang Degong was an outsider. He thought Pang Tong was joking, so he just sat in his high position and laughed without saying a word.
Compared to Pang Degong, Zhuge Liang was not so natural. He frowned slightly, not knowing what he was thinking about.
"Brother Pang, we still have at least four to five years before we reach the championship. Five years is too long. Who knows what will happen?"
In troubled times, four to five years may fly by and nothing may happen. It's also possible that things have changed and everything has changed!
Five years ago, various princes were still confronting Dong Zhuo and Liu Zhang in front of Hulao Pass!
Now five years have passed, Dong Zhuo is dead, most of the princes in each town have been killed or injured, and those who are still alive occupy a state.
"Pang Tong, if you want to join General Wei, you have to work hard! How can people like you like you?"
Taking this opportunity, Pang De justly reprimanded Pang Yi.
Although his son Pang Tong was extremely talented, his undisciplined character also caused Pang De and Sima Hui great headaches.
"Pang Tong has been studying hard to complete his studies as soon as possible and show his ambition!"
"good...!"
Pang Degong couldn't help but be a little surprised. He had raised Pang Tong for more than ten years, and this was the first time he had seen him so well-behaved.
"I heard that Liu Zhang issued an order seeking talents in Chengdu and sincerely invited talents from all over the world to come to Sichuan to support the Han Dynasty with him. I heard that it caused quite a stir in Jingzhou!"
Sima Hui changed the topic and talked about the talent recruitment order that has been widely circulated in the world recently.
"Yes, I heard that the boy from the Ma family wanted to join Liu Zhang in Sichuan, but his father stopped him."
As soon as the recruitment order was issued, Liu Zhang's reputation was greatly raised again. Pang Degong did not know about other states and counties, but in Jingzhou, as Sima Hui said, it attracted the attention of many talented people.
"It's a pity that Liu Zhang is in Yizhou. If he can issue a recruitment order in the Central Plains, he will surely attract the best talents from all over the world to join him first!"
"Now...tsk tsk..."
