"Jingzhou's Liu Biao and Yangzhou's Liu Mang have formed an alliance?" In a hidden courtyard in Jingzhou, Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan gritted their teeth as they listened to the news.
Alliance, alliance! Previously, Liu Mang only came to ask for provisions. But now, he wanted to form an alliance. Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan came with full confidence. They wanted to form an alliance between Jing Province and Yu Province. They wanted to rely on Jing Province, this sucker, to have enough provisions to develop their army. Then, they could take Yangzhou and annex Jing Province.
However, things did not go as planned. Step by step, Liu Mang managed to obtain provisions and even formed an alliance with Jingzhou. Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan were so angry that their lungs were about to explode. Time after time, their schemes failed again and again. Even Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan began to decline.
Pang Tong gritted his teeth. Yangzhou's food problem was solved. Pang Tong could no longer stay in Jingzhou. Now, Pang Tong had to transport the provisions he had collected to Yuzhou.
Pang Tong had also gained something in Jingzhou. With the help of some people in Lumen Academy, Pang Tong had managed to buy more than a hundred thousand provisions. These were all from the nobles. They had been sold to Pang Tong out of respect for Pang Degong. The money that Pang Tong had taken out was all his savings. It was left behind by his deceased father in Jingzhou. The money that Liu Bei had given him was given to Kuai Ran by Pang Tong as a congratulatory gift.
"Quick, send someone to send a letter. Tell Milord to send the Xiliang Cavalry to Fancheng to transport the provisions!" Pang Tong's eyes were bloodshot. As long as he could bring the provisions back, he would not have lost. With the provisions in Yuzhou, they could expand their army by a hundred thousand and fight against Yangzhou.
"Yes, Military Advisor!" A few of Pang Tong's subordinates looked at Pang Tong's ugly expression and wanted to run as far as possible.
However, they soon returned, each with a sullen expression on their faces.
"Why are you back? Has the letter already been delivered? "Pang Tong looked at his subordinates and asked in bewilderment.
"Military Advisor! You don't have to deliver the letter? "A few of his subordinates walked up to Pang Tong with sad faces.
Pang Tong was shocked when he heard his subordinates' words. He had a bad feeling about this.
"Military Advisor! All of Fan City's provisions have been seized by the city's defenders! "One of the subordinates reported to Pang Tong, handing the letter to Pang Tong.
Pang Tong was was shocked. "They didn't reveal the Pang Clan's name? Lumen Academy? " “
. "" Military Advisor, Zhang Jin's name. Zhang Jin Zhang was killed. Zhang... but he was killed! " "Pang Tong knew this Zhang Jin. He was one of the people who accompanied Pang Tong on Mount Jing that day. Pang Tong wanted to let him go to Fan City to plan first, but who knew that he would be killed in Fan City.
"Liu Mang, Liu Hanyang, you've gone too far. And that bitch, Liu Biao, you old fart!" Pang Tong glared angrily. Pang Tong had spent all of his wealth on those provisions. Pang Tong's father had left him thousands of gold before he died. This was not a small sum. When Pang Tong returned to Jingzhou, Pang Degong had given him all of this money. Because of some of the shops, the value of the money had increased a little. Pang Tong had sold and cleaned up these shops and houses. Only then was he able to buy more than a hundred thousand dan of provisions. But now, it had been cut off by someone.
How was Pang Tong supposed to explain this to Liu Bei when he returned to Yuzhou?
"Find Wang Kang! Yes, find Wang Kang! " Pang Tong's eyes lit up as he thought of Wang Kang. Wang Kang was a disciple of Lumen Academy and had once attended Pang Degong's lectures. He could be said to be half a disciple of Pang Degong. Wang Kang had always wanted Pang Degong to accept him as his disciple. With such a master, Wang Kang's career would be smooth sailing. Pang Tong, Pang Shiyuan, was Pang Degong's nephew and the closest relative of Pang Degong. Pang Shanmin was a modest gentleman. If he bribed Pang Shanmin, he might as well kill Pang Shanmin. However, Pang Tong was different. As soon as Wang Kang found him, before Wang Kang could say anything, the two of them hit it off.
The main reason why Liu Mang was unable to obtain provisions in Jingzhou was because of Wang Kang's mischief. After all, he was in charge of the provisions in Jingzhou. If he wanted to do something, it would be as easy as flipping his hand.
"Yes, I will go find Lord Wang Kang now!" Pang Tong's subordinates went out to look for Wang Kang. Although Wang Kang's position in Jingzhou wasn't high, many people would give him face, especially when it came to provisions. With him going out, success would be guaranteed.
"No need!" Just as Pang Tong was about to order someone to go find Wang Kang, Wang Kang arrived first.
"Lord Wang, you came at the right time. Our military advisor was looking for you!" Pang Tong's subordinates were all happy when Wang Kang arrived. As long as they could transport the provisions from Fan City to Yuzhou, they would be able to get the credit.
However, unlike his subordinates, Pang Tong's face was cold. He glared at Wang Kang and said, "Brother Wang Kang, I don't know how I offended Brother Wang for you to treat me like this!"
"Military Advisor, Lord Wang Kang?!" Pang Tong's subordinates didn't understand. They were just smiling and calling each other brothers. Why did their faces turn cold?
"Haha, Brother Pang, what are you talking about? You didn't offend me! You offended someone else! " “
"King Of Shu, Liu Mang?!" Pang Tong asked Pang Shiyuan.
"Hmm?!" Wang Kang shook his head.
"Lady Cai?!" Pang Shiyuan asked again, but Wang Kang still shook his head.
"Brother Pang, stop guessing! After today, you should ask the King of Hell for an explanation! "Wang Kang had a strange expression on his face.
"Wang Kang, you want to kill me? Aren't you afraid of the Pang Family and Lumen Academy?!" Pang Tong rebuked angrily. Wang Kang usually didn't bring guards with him. Moreover, he was a civil official. He didn't need guards! This time, he brought guards with him. Moreover, they were carrying sharp knives. It was obvious that he didn't come with good intentions. However, Pang Tong didn't expect that Wang Kang was here to kill him.
"Scared! Of course I'm scared! But! Brother Pang, what does killing you have to do with the Pang Family and Lumen Academy? " Wang Kang looked at Pang Tong with a smile. This Pang Tong was originally the second son of the Pang Family. Wang Kang had hoped to rely on him to advance in the officialdom. Because most of the high positions in Jingzhou were occupied by landowning households, it was as difficult as ascending to the heavens for Wang Kang to advance. However, if he had the support of the Pang Family and Pang Degong, then it would be a different story.
The Pang Family was a large aristocratic family. With their foundation, Lumen Academy could be said to have half of the civil officials in the country. With the support of these people, advancing a little was nothing! He might even be promoted by three ranks. This was why Wang Kang dared to speak up for Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan at the meeting hall in Jingzhou despite the risk of offending the Pang Family and the Cai Family.
However, the truth was always unexpected. You thought you had climbed up the social ladder, but who knew that you were just a down-and-out Fire Chicken! The Pang Family had already announced that Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan had been removed from the list. They would no longer have anything to do with the Pang Family in Jingzhou. The Lumen Academy would not bother to stand up for Pang Tong.
Wang Kang was dumbfounded. In order to curry favor with Pang Tong, he had offended many people. The Cai Family, the Pang Family. It could be said that he had offended everyone he could afford to offend. If the Pang Family wanted to settle the score, how many of Wang Kang's heads would be chopped off? How many of his houses would be raided?
Now, there was an opportunity to atone for his sins, and that was to kill Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan. Wang Kang had prepared this secluded courtyard for Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan. Who would have thought that it would be used to kill Pang Tong?
"Removed from the Pang Family?!" Pang Tong was stunned. He was not surprised that Jingzhou already knew that he had killed Tang Yun. So what if it was leaked? After all, he had already offended enough people in Jingzhou. He did not care about adding one more. However, he was shocked that his family had been removed from the Pang Family. Pang Tong, stunned, could not believe Wang Kang's words.
However, Wang Kang's expression of wanting to kill him to claim the credit was not an act.
"Uncle! Big Brother! "Pang Tong's mouth was full of bitterness." Are you really going to go to this extent?! "
"Pang Tong, Pang Shiyuan, hand over your head obediently and I'll leave your corpse intact!" Wang Kang laughed maniacally. These two guards were drawn from the army by him, and each of them had the strength of a third-rate general.
"Since you've already done this, don't blame me. Don't blame me, Pang Shiyuan, for being ruthless! Kill! "Pang Tong's eyes suddenly turned red. A long sword appeared in his hand and he stabbed towards Wang Kang.
