Ask a question about Feng Chu.

Pang Tong (A.D. 179-2 14), a native of Xiangyang and nephew of Pang Degong, had three legendary experiences:

When he was a teenager, he was honest and unknown because his talent was not revealed. However, Pang Degong liked him very much, valued him very much, and instructed him to consult the ancient prose writer Si Mahui. At that time, Cao De was picking mulberries on the tree, and Shiyuan was under the tree. They talk to each other from morning till night. Cao De admired him very much, calling him "the crown of southern states". Since then, his reputation has gradually improved.

His road to politics is very tortuous. As early as when Liu Bei visited Si Mahui, he knew the name of Pang Tong. At that time, Cao De said, "Do Confucian scholars and laymen know the times? People who know the times care about Jie Jun. Here is a Long Fu, Feng Chu. " Liu Bei asked who these two men were, and Cao De said, "Zhu Gekongming, Pang Shiyuan." However, Pang Tong, who is as famous as Zhu Gekongming, has a bumpy road to politics. Romance of the Three Kingdoms makes this story full of twists and turns. Although he offered a series of tricks to help Zhou Yu burn Cao's boat in Battle of Red Cliffs, he helped Zhou Yu. He had to return to Liu Bei's residence in Jingzhou under the recommendation of Lu Su and others, and became a county magistrate in Leiyang (now Hunan Province). In Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he was drunk, ignored the county government, and Zhang Fei patrolled. He solved the case in a hundred days, and in a few days, his amazing and infallible talent and Zhang Fei's recommendation to Liu Bei were staggering. However, according to historical records, he was not the director of the county and was dismissed. In the future, if you don't drive in the treatment, you will show your clues and ears. "Zhuge Liang also told Liu Bei about Pang Tong. Liu Bei followed the advice of Lu Su and Zhuge Liang and summoned Pang Tong. After the talk, I valued him very much and made him a military commander like Zhuge Liang.

He is brilliant, but his life is short. After he became a military commander, he immediately suggested that Liu Bei take surprisingly. Liu Bei took his advice and followed Liu Bei's army to give up. On the way, he offered a plan to Liu Bei, killed Liu Zhang generals Yang Huai and Gao Pei, and then marched into Chengdu. All the way was invincible until progress was made in Los Angeles (now Guanghan County, Sichuan Province).

In the 13th year of Jian 'an of Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty (AD 208), Cao Cao led his army south to Jingzhou. At this time, Liu Biao was dead, and his son Liu Cong surrendered without a fight. Liu Bei led more than 200,000 soldiers and civilians to the south. When Cao Jun caught up with Dangyang Changbanpo, Liu Bei was outnumbered and ran away. Xu Shu's mother was unfortunately captured by Cao Jun, and Cao Caopa sent someone to forge her mother's personal letter to call her back to Xudu. When Xu Shu learned of this incident, she was in great pain and said goodbye to Liu Bei with tears in her eyes. Pointing to his chest, he said, "I was going to work with the general for the great cause of Wang Ba. I am very sad now. I can't describe it. It's a pity that my mother was captured and her heart was in chaos. Even if I stay with the general, it won't help. Please allow me to say goodbye and go to the north to serve my elderly mother! " Although Liu Bei couldn't bear to let Xu Shu leave himself, he knew that Xu Shu was a famous dutiful son, and he couldn't bear to watch his mother and son separate. He was even more afraid that if Xu's mother was killed, he would be accused of keeping human flesh and blood, so he had to leave Xu Shu in tears. ?

After Xu Shu returned to Cao from the north, he was still attached to his friends Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang. Although he has great strategy and talent, he is unwilling to make suggestions for Cao Cao and make enemies with Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang. Therefore, Xu Shu has been in Cao Wei for decades, but he has never made any achievements in politics and military affairs, and he is almost unknown. This is what people often say: "Xu Shu entered Cao Ying without saying a word". In the early days of the Huang Dynasty (220-226), Xu Shu was an official of the right corps commander and served as a consultant. In the third year of Wei Mingdi Taihe (229), Zhuge Liang started his expedition to the Central Plains from Qishan. When he heard what happened to Xu Shu after Cao entered Wei, he couldn't help sighing for his good friend's life. ?

Xu Shu's life, although ill-fated and bumpy, did not make anything earth-shattering in the end. But his personality and morality of loyalty, honesty, filial piety and recommending talents will be passed down to future generations.
