As counselors from the Three Kingdoms gather together, there is a famous saying, Crouching dragon and phoenix chick can make the world peaceful, which makes people deeply remember these two characters. Crouching dragon is Zhuge Liang, the god of wisdom in people's hearts, and phoenix chick is the god of wisdom in people's hearts. Pang Tong, putting these two people side by side is enough to prove that Pang Tong is also a very wise man.

Pang Tong (179-214), courtesy name Shiyuan, was born in Xiangyang (now Xiangfan, Hubei). Pang Tong's life was short, and the most exciting part was that Liu Bei successfully won the land of Shu. Although short-lived, Pang Tong's wisdom has been passed down for thousands of years, and he is still a heroic figure that people can't forget.

Pang Tong’s rise to fame

When Pang Tong was young, he was often teased by his friends. It is estimated that a child who was demented during the day and looked at the sky and counted stars at night would grow up. He is so ugly that my friends disdain to be with him. They think he is too ugly and makes people sad to see him.

"Three Kingdoms, Pang Tongzhuan" records: When he was young, he was simple and dull and had no knowledge. When Pang Tong was young, there was nothing outstanding and nothing that made people stupefy.

So how did Pang Tong, such an ordinary person who could not be found in the crowd, become famous all over the world and rise up? Pang Tong felt that he could not live in obscurity and wanted to do something earth-shaking. So I found Sima Wei, a star figure at the time, and asked Sima Wei to endorse him and do authoritative certification, and then publicize it widely, so that people would pay more attention and publicity.

Pang Tong and the star Sima Wei chatted all day long, talking about everything from day to night. The star Sima Wei gave Pang Tong an evaluation, saying that Pang Tong was the crown of the Nanzhou scholars and the best in the Southern Kingdom. The best talent among talents. From then on, Pang Tong began to become a star.

Pang Tong is known as "Feng Chu", Sima Wei is known as "Mr. Shui Jing", and Zhuge Liang is known as "Wolong". These three names were all given by Pang Degong, who was also a star of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Characters, these people are all in the same group, and there is another piece of bombshell news. Pang Tong is the nephew of Pang Degong. Is this a trap set by Pang Degong and his group to build momentum for themselves? Of course this is just a conjecture.

Er Pang Tong believed in the power of role models

Pang Tong became famous after being recognized by Sima Wei. After becoming famous, he began to serve as an official. "Three Kingdoms" records: County orders are meritorious. At that time, Xiangyang County was under the jurisdiction of Zhou Yu, and Pang Tong was Zhou Yu's subordinate.

Since you are a star, you should do something positive and set an example. This is what a star should do. "Three Kingdoms" records: good nature and human ethics, diligence in growing up.

Now that he has become a star, he has the capital to talk eloquently. He can also point out people and countries like a master. Pang Tong likes to criticize people. The principle of criticism is to only talk about good things, not bad things. Talking about bad people, Pang Tong said, there are many bad people now and few good people. Only by setting an example can we promote the enlightenment of the world.

San Pang Tong’s heart is full of pride

After the Battle of Chibi, Liu Bei established a firm foothold in Jingzhou and gained territory. To be precise, Sun Quan listened to Lu Su’s words and took Jingzhou The territory was lent to Liu Bei, just as Zhou Yu said goodbye to the world. Pang Tong sent Zhou Yu back to Jiangdong.

Celebrities in Jiangdong also said that they had heard of Pang Tong's name and naturally wanted to discuss it with him. Sun Quan naturally knew Pang Tong's name. He should know that Pang Tong was a figure. Logically speaking, Pang Tong should have served Soochow. However, Pang Tong thought Zhou Yu was not good. It was probably because Pang Tong underestimated Zhou Yu, which made Sun Quan unhappy. Sun Quan did not appoint Pang Tong. Later, he listened to Lu Su and defected to Liu Bei. Zhou Yu's attitude towards Sun Quan was not ordinary. He was not an ordinary subordinate, but a brotherhood of flesh and blood. Pang Tong was not appointed by Sun Quan because of his own pride.

When he arrived at Liu Bei's place, Liu Bei felt that Pang Tong was really ugly. At that time, Liu Bei's territory was not big, and Zhuge Liang was around him, so he did not keep him by his side. Liu Bei asked Pang Tong to try out as an employee. He was appointed as the magistrate of Leiyang County. He was dismissed from his official position due to poor performance in governing Leiyang County.

Pang Tong estimated in his heart that ten thousand "grass mud horses" were whizzing by. I am such a famous person, and you still want to test my talents and only give me a small county magistrate. The proud Pang Tong became passive and negligent and did not take his work seriously. He was later dismissed by Liu Bei.

Later, Soochow general Lu Su wrote to Liu Bei, saying that Pang Tong is not an ordinary talent. Only by giving him a high-level official position can he show his talent. Coupled with Zhuge Liang's recommendation, Liu Bei began to take Pang Tong seriously.

Almost lost another opportunity, proud Pang Tong, what would happen if Pang Tong defected to Cao Cao? Will the pattern of the Three Kingdoms change?

Si Pang Tong’s unrivaled talent

"Three Kingdoms" records Pang Tong saying: "In times of contingency, it is impossible for one person to decide. Attack the weak and the ignorant, and the five uncles It is a matter of defiance and obedience, and repaying it with righteousness. After the matter is settled, why should you fail to trust in a great country? If you don't take it today, you will benefit others in the end." It was this sentence that broke Liu Bei's moral shackles. Entering Shu, he began to plot against Liu Zhang.

If you want to achieve great things, you must know how to adapt to changes. How can you be stubborn? You must know how to adapt to changes in everything in order to seize opportunities. The law of the world is that the weak eat the strong, cooperate with the strong and attack the weak. If you have a bad conscience, just do something good after the incident is over, so that you can clear yourself. This opportunity to annex the weak belongs to everyone. If you don't snatch it, others will snatch it. Rather than giving it to others, it is better to snatch it yourself.

These words are still applicable to today’s world. People who understand the so-called success hold these values ??and unscrupulously plunder wealth and influence everything in this society.

Wu Pang Tong’s strange plan to seize Shu

The first strategy proposed by Pang Tong to capture Shu for Liu Bei was the "Hongmen Banquet". Pang Tong suggested that he start at the banquet and directly capture Liu Zhang. Idiot, you can do it without any effort, but Liu Bei said that he had just arrived and the people's hearts were not attached and he vetoed it. Then Pang Tong proposed three more strategies.

As a first move, he made a surprise attack on Chengdu and used it as a cover-up in the name of the northern expedition to Hanzhong. Liu Zhang was unprepared and the surprise attack hit him at a loss. The second strategy is to use the excuse of Jingzhou's change to attract Liu Zhang's famous generals to say goodbye, seize the opportunity to capture them, and then annex them. If you return to Baidi City three times to make plans, you will lose your opportunity. Liu Bei was far away and took the middle strategy.

They were invincible along the way, and all the counties along the way were conquered. When Liu Bei obtained Shu, Pang Tong was the first to do so. This allowed Liu Bei to realize the strategic plan of "Longzhong Pair" and laid the foundation for the establishment of the Three Kingdoms.

Liu Pang Tong’s wisdom in being a subordinate

Liu Bei won and held a banquet to reward the three armies. Liu Bei was very happy and completely exposed his true nature. Liu Bei said that he was very happy today, but Pang Tong reminded Liu Bei that he shouldn't say that.

Liu Bei was angry and told Pang Tong to get out. Pang Tong retreated. Later Liu Bei regretted it and called Pang Tong back. When asked who was responsible just now, Pang Tong said everyone was responsible. Liu Bei laughed, and the banquet returned to its original joyful atmosphere.

In fact, Pang Tong was right. Although Liu Zhang was incompetent, the people were relatively peaceful and prosperous. You are not the type of tyrant, not to mention that you have always flaunted your benevolence and righteousness. If word spreads about it, it will affect your image. It is the right thing to be reminded appropriately.

Liu Bei asked who of the two of us was at fault. Pang Tong said that both of us were at fault, and he wanted to give Liu Bei a step down so that everyone would not be embarrassed. If Pang Tong was asked to say that he was the only one who was wrong, Pang Tong couldn't do it because Pang Tong was a proud man.

Later, when Liu Bei was attacking Luoxian County, Pang led his troops to attack the city and was shot by a stray arrow and died. He was thirty-six years old. This is a very bad thing for Liu Bei. He died young. If Pang Tong had lived, Liu Bei might have done greater things, and the Shu Han might have become more powerful.

Chen Shou believed that Pang Tong should be a figure like Xun Yu, at least comparable to Xun Yu.
