Pang Tong had a bad idea, but Liu Bei wouldn't listen. Why was he criticized as false by later generations?
After all, Liu Bei cherishes his life. At Zhuge Liang's words, he began to waver, with Zhuge Liang on one side and Pang Tong on the other. He began to have a headache and didn't know who to listen to. So he asked Pang Tong by innuendo: I had a dream last night, in which a man tried to hit me with an iron bar. Do you think this is a fierce performance? Hearing this, Pang Tong knew that Liu Bei was more inclined to listen to Zhuge Liang. But when he besieged Luocheng, he still offered Liu Bei three tricks. Liu Bei chose the recruit, that is, pretending to go back to Jingzhou to lure the enemy to attack and capture the enemy alive with the soldiers who had already ambushed.
However, before the departure, Pang Tong's horse suddenly refused to listen, and Liu Bei pretended to be considerate of Pang Tong and gave him his horse. The horse that Liu Bei gave up was Diluma. If this horse has a tear slot at the moment, it will definitely get in the way of its owner. This was a well-known thing at that time. But Liu Bei gave such a horse to Pang Tong, and Pang Tong got on the horse without saying anything.
Pang Tong rode Druma on the battlefield (note that Pang Tong was only a counselor, not a military commander), because Druma was recognized by the enemy as Liu Bei and was shot. Afterwards, Liu Bei was in great pain. He took care of Pang Tong's father to make up for his guilt. However, after his death, no amount of compensation will make much sense.
