When did Pang Shiyuan die?
In the 19th year of Jian 'an, Liu Bei dispatched Zhuge Liang, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and others to lead the troops to conquer Bai Di, Jiangzhou and Jiangyang. Soon, Liu Bei surrounded Luocheng. Pang Tong led a siege and was shot dead by an arrow. He is 36 years old.
Liu Bei deeply regretted it and wept when he talked about Pang Tong. In recognition of his achievements, his father was appointed Ichiro, and later he was promoted to Dr. Suggestion. Liu Bei posthumously awarded Pang Tong as Shanhaiguan Hou and Jinghe Hou for three years.
Pang Tong was buried in Luofengpo after his death, and the cemetery only had simple maintenance. It is said that this is the cemetery chosen by Liu Bei for relatives, but it is a treasure trove of geomantic omen and has tombstones.
Pang Shiyuan's story:
Once, Liu Bei chatted with Pang Tong and asked him, "You used to be the hero of Zhou Yu, Cao. I heard that when I went to Wu, Zhou Yu sent a secret letter to Sun Quan, asking him to detain me. I wonder if this really happened. Under whose hand, of course, you should be loyal to whom, and you don't have to hide it. "
Pang Tong replied: "This is indeed the case." Liu Bei sighed sincerely: "At that time, I was in danger and wanted Sun Quan, so I had to see him. I almost fell into Zhou Yu's hands when I went! "
Liu Bei also said: "People with great wisdom think alike. Kong Ming also advised me not to go at that time, insisting again and again, probably for fear that Sun Quan would detain me. I thought at that time that Sun Quan should be on guard against Cao Cao in the north. He should want me to help him, so he insisted on seeing him without doubt. Now that I think about it, this is indeed an adventure, not a panacea. "
