Three Kingdoms: The identity of the financial master behind the scenes was exposed by Cao Cao

Saving lives is naturally a great favor.

Cao Yuan was not hypocritical. He stood where he was and accepted Pang Tong's worship calmly.

Afterwards.

Cao Yuancai asked:"Pang Shiyuan, I'm very surprised. Since you were traveling with Zhuge Liang, you should be in the same boat. Why did you end up in this situation when he escaped?"

"If it weren't for that thief Zhuge Liang, who refused to save me until he died, how could I do this? Pang

Tong clenched his fists, and hatred ignited in his brows.

These words immediately aroused Cao Yuan's interest, and he asked:"It seems that you two had a story on the boat last night. You might as well tell it and listen to it." Pang

Tong then told the story of how he was hit by an arrow and fell into the water last night, and he begged Zhuge Liang for help, but Zhuge Liang refused to save him and abandoned him and ran away. After hearing this, Huang Yueying couldn't help but wonder:"You and that Kong Ming are good friends. He actually refused to save you?"

"Friends? Pang

Tong looked sarcastic and laughed at himself:"I, Pang Tong, was really blind. I only made friends with him in the first place and regarded him as a friend!""

"The only person Zhuge Liang really cares about in this life is Liu Bei"

"Anyone who blocks his way to help Liu Bei revive the Han Dynasty is his stumbling block, and he can kick it away at any time."

"If necessary, he might even sacrifice his own brother, let alone your mere friend."

Cao Yuan smiled coldly and exposed Zhuge Liang's true nature.

Pang Tong seemed to have realized something.

After pondering for a long time, Pang Tong sighed:"I have known Zhuge Liang for many years, but I didn't expect that I don't know him as well as Military Advisor Cao. His ability to see into people's hearts makes him truly the best counselor in the world. Cao

Yuan didn't bother to listen to his compliment, so he said to Pang Shanmin:"I have rescued the man. King Wei should be waiting to recruit his younger brother, so you can take him there." Pang

Tong couldn't help but shudder when he heard the word"surrender".

Pang Shanmin said:"Shi Yuan, our Pang family has surrendered to King Wei now. Your life is also the result of King Wei asking the military advisor to save you. In such a situation, how can you Aren't you planning to surrender to the King of Wei?"

Pang Tong remained silent.

"Pang Shiyuan, even if you refuse to surrender to Wei and the King of Wei graciously lets you go, do you think Sun Ce will still believe you after you go back?"

Cao Yuan hit the nail on the head.

Pang Tong was shocked. The hesitation and concern in his heart were instantly shattered by Cao Yuan's words.

"He was right. I was captured by the Wei army and rescued by him. Even if the King of Wei let me go, Sun Ce would definitely be suspicious of me. How could he trust me again?"

"What's more, Zhuge Liang is afraid that I will retaliate against him, so he will definitely stir up trouble and try to kill me. Pang

Tong's thoughts were racing, weighing the pros and cons.

Cao Yuan then asked:"A man must avenge himself. Zhuge Liang almost killed you. You can only have a chance to avenge this revenge by surrendering to the King of Wei. Don't you want to seek revenge from Zhuge Liang?" Revenge?"

A man must avenge his revenge!

These seven words immediately lit a fire in Pang Tong's heart.

The anger of revenge burned wildly in his eyes.

"Military Advisor Cao is right. If I can't avenge Zhuge Liang, what kind of man am I, Pang Tong?

There was no hesitation on Pang Tong's face and he said resolutely:"Cousin, take me to see King Wei!""

His attitude was obviously convinced by Cao Yuan and he was determined to surrender to Wei.

Pang Shanmin was relieved and looked at Cao Yuan with admiration and gratitude.

Then, he carried Pang Tong to say goodbye and went to meet Cao Cao.

……

South Bank, Hanying.

In the military tent, screams of pain continued.

Liu Bei is taking matters into his own hands, applying medicine to Zhuge Liang

"That boy Sun Ce was so cruel, he beat the military advisor like this!"

"Sooner or later, I will make him pay the price! Liu

Bei said bitterly while applying the medicine.

"Sun Ce tortured his ministers just to show his authority to the king. Now we have something to ask for, so we ask the king to put the overall situation first and be patient. Although Zhuge Liang grinned in pain, he still tried to persuade Liu Bei.

Liu Bei sighed and said with shame:"I really feel guilty for letting my military advisor suffer such humiliation for my great cause of prospering the Han Dynasty.""

"Your Majesty has shown kindness to me, and even if I die for your Majesty, I am still willing to do so. Your Majesty, please do not blame yourself."

Zhuge Liang comforted him softly.

Liu Bei became more and more moved. He rolled his eyes, and suddenly a thought came to his mind.

"Kong Ming, I have something I want to discuss with you."

"What does the king have to say? Zhuge Liang heard something in his words and turned to look at Liu Bei.

Liu Bei coughed a few times and said with a smile:"I heard that your sister is still unmarried. If the military commander is willing, I would like to marry your sister and make her my wife." What does the military commander think of her as the queen?"

Hearing this, Zhuge Liang's eyes shone brightly, and he immediately understood Liu Bei's intention.

The King of Han wanted to show his favor to his mastermind by marrying the Zhuge family!

Zhuge Liang was busy pretending to be flattered. , with a look of surprise on his face:"If I can serve the king, it will be my blessing and a great honor for my Zhuge family!""

These words naturally agreed to Liu Bei's proposal of marriage.

Liu Bei laughed and said happily:"In that case, after we finish this battle and repel Cao's thieves, I will be in great glory and appoint your sister as the queen. Look, military advisor. how?"

"Everything is arranged by the king."

Zhuge Liang also laughed.

His two ministers had agreed on the marriage.

At this time, the personal guards came to report, and Sun Ce and Zhou Yu came to visit in person.

Liu Bei's face suddenly darkened, and he cursed:"He beat him He became a military advisor, and now he comes to visit again with pretense. Is he a cat crying and a mouse pretending to be compassionate?"

"Sun Ce defeated his ministers to establish his authority, but if he wanted to defeat Cao's thieves in Jingzhou, he had to rely on the king to help him. After establishing his authority, he came to show mercy again. Zhuge

Liangming revealed Sun Ce's intention and reminded him:"Your Majesty, with the overall situation in mind, let's perform a play with Sun Ce.""

Liu Bei sighed and had no choice but to invite Sun Ce in.

Not long after, the curtain was lifted, and Sun Ce and Zhou Yu walked in one after another.

Liu Bei's gloomy face immediately changed to a smile, and he greeted each other.

Zhuge Liang also braced himself and wanted to get up to pay his respects.

"Mr. Kong Ming, don’t get up, lie down quickly! Sun

Ce hurriedly stepped forward and helped Zhuge Liang down.

Then,

Sun Ce looked apologetic and said with a wry smile:"Kong Ming, in order to uphold military discipline, I have to torture you. You are a wise man who understands righteousness. I think he should be able to You understand my difficulties, and you won’t blame me."

Even if Zhuge Liang had complaints, he didn't dare to say them out, so he had to show his magnanimity.

After the two sides went through the cutscene, they seemed to have cleared up all their previous grudges.

"Mr. Kong Ming, the Cao thieves have now established a foothold on the north bank. Even if we have enough arrows, it is impossible to attack the north bank."

"If this continues, in a few months, Cao Cao's navy will be ready. If they fight again, the outcome will be unpredictable."

"I am here this time, firstly, to visit you, and secondly, I want to hear what clever plan you have to defeat Cao Cao's thief? Sun

Ce changed the topic and got back to the topic.

Zhuge Liang said without thinking:"We naturally want to make a quick decision and defeat the Cao thieves as soon as possible. We cannot let him train enough navy troops.""

Sun Ce looked back at Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu then smiled and asked,"I just discussed with the King of Wu and thought that we should win the battle quickly. I wonder if Mr. Kong Ming has a clever plan to win? Zhuge

Liang looked at Zhou Yu's face, looked at Zhou Yu a few times, and then smiled and said:"The Governor of Zhou is extremely resourceful. If Liang's guess is correct, the Governor must have offered King Wu a plan to defeat Cao Cao.""

Zhou Yu's eyes moved slightly.

Sun Ce praised:"Wolong is indeed Wolong. He really knows things like a god. Gongjin did think of a plan, but he is not sure, so he wants to hear what Mr. Kong Ming means. Zhuge

Liang said,"What a coincidence. Liang just happened to think of a plan. I wonder if it coincides with Governor Zhou's plan.""

Liu Bei, who was standing aside, couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw the two wise men thinking of a quick solution at the same time.

"In this case, the two of you might as well write down your strategies separately, and then open them at the same time to see if the heroes have the same idea."

Liu Bei was full of joy and personally brought a pen and paper.

Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu each wrote their strategies on the paper and handed them to Sun Ce and Liu Bei respectively.

Sun Ce and Liu Bei looked at each other, nodded slightly, and opened the silk paper at the same time..The same two words were written on the two pieces of silk paper:

Fire attack!
