Chapter 327 3 Kingdoms: Is the Phoenix inferior to the Dragon?
In the 17th year of Jian'an, Liu Bei wrote to Liu Zhang, pretending that Sun Quan was asking for help and that he was going to lead his troops back to Jingzhou. Therefore, he asked Liu Zhang to provide 100,000 hu of military rations and borrow 30,000 to 40,000 soldiers. Liu Zhang said that he could only provide one tenth of the military rations Liu Bei needed and 4,000 old and weak soldiers.
Liu Bei asked Pang Tong about this matter, and Pang Tong offered three strategies of good, medium and bad quality.
"The best plan is to immediately select elite soldiers and generals, prepare sufficient food and grass, and take Chengdu by force day and night while Liu Zhang is still unprepared. Then we can win Xichuan in one battle."
"We've fallen into a trap. Fushui Pass is the throat leading to Chengdu, and it's also the only way back to Jingzhou. Currently, the Shu generals Yang Huai and Gao Pei are guarding it... The two of them will definitely come out of the pass to see us off. We'll get to know them, and then go take Chengdu."
"Let's make a plan. Temporarily give up the idea of taking Sichuan and immediately retreat to Jingzhou. We will act when the time is right and make plans to advance gradually."
Liu Bei pondered for a moment and said, "The upper plan is too hasty, and the lower plan is too slow. Only the middle plan is neither too fast nor too slow, so it can be implemented."
A few days later, Liu Bei learned that Zhang Song, the deputy governor of Yizhou, was reported by his brother Zhang Su and his entire family was executed.
Liu Bei felt extremely sad, "Zhang Song was sincere...but because of me, his whole family suffered such a disaster." He raised the bowl to offer sacrifice to Zhang Song from afar.

＜Alas, the Pang Tong experience card is about to expire.＞
＜Every episode after the Battle of Red Cliff is so depressing, and everyone I know leaves one by one……＞
＜I’ll help you fight Zhang Lu. You, Liu Zhang, are so stingy. Don’t you remember that we are brothers from the same clan?＞
＜The best strategy is high risk and high return, the worst strategy is to give away, only the middle strategy is safe.＞
＜I really feel that Little Phoenix is more suitable for a fierce leader. It's a pity that Sun Ce, the little tyrant of Wu, died early, and Sun Quan was not suitable for him either＞
＜It would be better to let Zhang Lu destroy Liu Zhang, and then go to Shu to avenge Liu Zhang and destroy Zhang Lu [eat melon]＞
＜Why do you hesitate to fight or retreat?＞
[Emperor Gaozu of Han Liu Bang: Not like me]
[Sun Ce, the sixth year of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty: Yes, yes, yes, yes, my Jiangdong is the most suitable place for Mr. Fengchu! ]
[Zhang Lu, Year 6 of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty: I won't beat around the bush. Liu Jiyu, just live well in Chengdu. I'm coming to take your life now, hahahaha]
[Liu Biao in the sixth year of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty: @Liu Zhang in the sixth year of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty For the sake of our common clan brothers, I can help you [eat melon] ]
……
Sun Ce was very satisfied and nodded in agreement.
"Feng Chu is already from Jiangdong, so he is naturally the most suitable for Jiangdong!"
Zhou Yu started writing down some parts of the video, maybe it would be useful later...
Pang Tong began to speculate how he died on this day in the original history. It was said before that he died at Luofengpo, so it seems that something happened at Fushui Pass.
……
"Mr. Fengchu..." Cao Cao said with emotion.
Cao Pi thought the Fengchu in the video was really strange. Liu Bei already had a Wolong who was as famous as him. Even if he wanted to leave Jiangdong, wouldn't it be better for him to choose his father's side? Why did he have to die for Liu Bei?
"There are three strategies: best, middle and worst. The best strategy is gambling, but it also has the highest effect..." Cao Cao put himself in the video. If it were him, which one would he choose?
……
Zhang Song, who had packed his bag and was already on his way, touched his neck. He was suddenly glad that he did not go with his brother, otherwise he would be sold again.
……
[At the Military Advisor's Mansion, Zhuge Liang is talking with his counselor Ma Liang.
"Now that Zhang Song has been killed, Liu Zhang will surely send more troops and generals to various passes... The generals in Sichuan have long been resentful of our lord for leading his troops into Sichuan. We must not rush to use troops at this time, but should advance slowly." Zhuge Liang was very worried about the current situation.
Ma Liang was puzzled. "With Military Advisor Pang here, I don't think there will be any major disasters."
"I'm afraid he's too eager to succeed!"
……
In Luo County, Xichuan, Shu general Zhang Ren and others discussed important matters.
Liu Qi: "Tomorrow is the Double Seventh Festival. Should we withdraw our defenses? Reward the soldiers..."
Zhang Ren disagreed. "We should be more careful during the holidays. Liu Bei has been marching very fast since he occupied Fushui Pass... I'm afraid he will launch a surprise attack during the holidays..."
……
Ma Liang was ordered by Zhuge Liang to go to Xichuan to deliver a letter to Liu Bei.
Zhuge Liang pretended to be in the sky, saying that this time the situation was bad and that Liu Bei should act with caution. However, Pang Tong thought that Zhuge Liang was afraid that he would take Xichuan alone and make great achievements.
Moreover, Pang Tong was very anxious. He had served under Liu Bei for a long time, but had no chance to make achievements.
Pang Tong told Liu Bei, "The key to using troops is to seize the opportunity. Once you miss the opportunity, it will be hard to find it again in a thousand years."
Liu Bei still had doubts in his heart, but he was very convinced of Zhuge Liang's ability.
"…He was confused by Kong Ming's words. He did not want to achieve great success, so he made such remarks to doubt his lord's intentions."
After hearing what Pang Tong said, Liu Bei immediately explained for Zhuge Liang, "Kong Ming is definitely not a jealous person. I'm afraid the military advisor is too suspicious."
The conversation between the two did not continue. 】
＜It is Ma Liang! Among the five Ma family members, the white-browed one is the best＞
＜The two countries should make peace and avoid war!＞
＜Zhuge Liang is still the most stable one. He really understands Pang Tong. Pang Tong does have some issues with his character.＞
＜I am not saying this, Zhang Ren is so smart, but he can't stop Zhang Lu? He even needs Liu Bei to help him?＞
＜Pang Tong was eager to make achievements. He thought that if he could get one of the two, he could conquer the world. If he got both, it would be a loss and they would fight＞
＜Where is Fa Zheng? Isn’t he the chief strategist?＞
＜Pang Tong’s plan was really dangerous and too narrow-minded. Crouching Dragon is cautious, Phoenix Young is Conservative＞
＜It seems like a harem competition for favor [covering face]＞
＜Those who say Pang Tong was not doing well under Liu Bei and should go to Cao Cao, have they forgotten how Cao Cao treated his advisers during the Battle of Red Cliff? And how he treated Zhang Song?＞
[Emperor Gaozu of Han Liu Bang: We should pay more attention to the mentality of our counselors and generals]
[Emperor Wu of Han Liu Che: [Thinking] As long as it can achieve victory, I will use it]
[Tang Taizong Li Shimin: From the video, it seems that Liu Bei's indecisiveness caused this situation, but the root problem is that he brought the wrong people to Xichuan, and the combination was not good]
[Emperor Cao Cao of Wei: I like Mr. Fengchu’s energy]
[Sun Ce in the sixth year of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty:?]
……
Eastern Han Dynasty, the sixth year of Jian'an
Jiangdong
At this point, Pang Tong was able to recreate his own death.
"In their eagerness to achieve success, they underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly."
In the final analysis, it was because he and Kong Ming were not only equally famous, but also long-time friends. This was why he would not be willing to fall behind his good friend Kong Ming.
On the way to Sichuan, he could keenly sense that Liu Bei would not use his strategy, which made the "self" in the video a little distorted. "Pang Tong" would think that if Kong Ming was also waiting, the lord would definitely use his strategy, and in this way he would be a step behind Kong Ming, which made "self" unbearable.
"Alas." Pang Tong shook his head at the screen. The self on the screen was still a little impetuous. The self in the original history died at Luofeng Slope before he could achieve anything...
"Kong Ming, you chose him again this time, right?" Pang Tong looked towards the direction of Jingzhou, "Then, let's see who's better on the battlefield."
"The phoenix cub is not inferior to the sleeping dragon!"
Jingzhou
The young Zhuge Liang pinched his wrist which was aching from long hours of copying, looked at what "Pang Tong" said on the paper, and smiled with pursed lips.
"Shi Yuan, now that we are in different camps, can you display your full strength?"
