Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 398
After hearing this, Yang Ren lay down lazily. He waved his hands and replied drunkenly: "Vice General Yang, don't be joking. The wine we drank just now was sent by Brother Ling?"

Dong dong dong

There was another knocking sound on the bed under Yang Ren, and he turned over while muttering, ignoring it.

"General Yang Ren shoulders a great responsibility, how can he be so drunk at this time?" Yang Song sternly shouted.

Yang Ren's ears moved, and he felt that the voice was really Yang Song. He slapped the bed and sat up suddenly, seeing that smiling face.

"What's going on?" Yang Ren scratched his head and asked.

Yang Song said in a deep voice: "I was ordered by my lord to send wine and meat to laborers in the night of Shangyuan. I don't want you to be so lazy. What if Cao Cao and Liu Bei came to steal the pass?"

Yang Ren was a little more sober at this time, he changed his mind and thought that it was Yang Bai who persuaded him to drink just now, could it be that these two brothers were playing tricks on me?

Although Yang Song was very close to Zhang Lu, he was only a civil servant and adviser after all, and he was still the chief general at Yangping Pass.

"Vice General Yang, what happened?" Yang Ren sat upright, regaining his dignity.

Yang Bai clasped his fists and replied: "That group before was fake, luckily there was no poison in those drinks."

"Where are their people now? This general wants to interrogate himself." Yang Ren's vest was also covered in sweat, and Yang Bai said it right. If Pang De and the others had the slightest evil intentions, they would not be able to wake up by this time.

"The last general was also drunk just now, but according to what the guards said, they seemed to be driving a carriage to Chencang Road." Yang Bo replied cautiously.

Yang Ren took the case and said, "These fellows don't dare to play tricks on this general. Give me an army and horses to chase them overnight. Those carriages will not be far away if they want to carry food."

"General." Yang Bai hesitated to speak.

"What?" Yang Ren frowned.

Yang Song sneered and asked: "General, if you want to chase, please go alone, not to mention that there is no lord and general order to send troops privately. Now there is no one in the dark, what should you do if you encounter an ambush? Want to put my brother in danger?"

Yang Ren was taken aback when he heard that, feeling that he was indeed impulsive, he quickly cupped his fists and asked for advice: "Mr. is very resourceful, what should I do now?"

Yang Song twisted his beard and turned his back, making an inscrutable look, "I heard that there are only a hundred or so impostors, and it should be difficult to drive a carriage. Everyone's health is fine, why don't you ask for instructions tomorrow morning?" My lord, let's make calculations."

"Mr. is right, let's go now." Yang Ren asked again.

Yang Song sneered: "The wine and meat I brought have been moved to Guanshang, the general will distribute them to everyone to continue drinking. This is a reward from Lord Shang Yuanye."

Yang Ren's face was full of embarrassment, "I've had enough drinking just now."

"The generals had a good time drinking it. You go and distribute it to the underground soldiers, lest the lord say that I didn't do a good job." Yang Song shook his head.

"Yes, brother." Yang Bai responded with cupped fists.

Before dawn the next day, Yang Ren sent someone to fly to Hanzhong to report that someone pretended to be Yang Song to pass the customs last night.

Because Zhang Lu had fun with the congregation on the night of the Yuan Dynasty, he drank too much and fell asleep until Sishi. After hearing the news, he immediately summoned Zhang Wei and informed him of the situation at Yangping Pass last night.

Zhang Wei clasped his fists and said, "I have something to report to my brother. The hundred or so people stationed in the west of the city suddenly disappeared. Apart from the weapons and armor left behind in the camp, the rest of the clothes also disappeared."

"I knew it was them. It must be Pang Rou and Pang De who suffered from Ma Chao's old illness. Taking advantage of the slack guards in Shangyuan night, they pretended to be the grooms of the labor army and ran away." Zhang Lu slapped his thigh fiercely, and immediately connected the affairs of Yangpingguan.

"Neither Pang Rou nor Pang De is really loyal to them. If you want to leave, let them go. They don't have one heart with us anyway." Zhang Wei advised.

Zhang Lu gritted his teeth and said, "Although we only provide porridge on weekdays, we are still their food and clothing parents. Now we are sneaking away like rats, and we don't think much of me. Besides, Xiliang soldiers must have Internal response, otherwise it is impossible to escape easily, we have to catch them back to find the internal response."

"If it wasn't for my elder brother's reminder, I would almost have forgotten to do this." Zhang Wei nodded.

"Pang Rou and Pang De's food must be used on the road. How fast can the escort march? Why not go for a day and a half first? Gongze (Zhang Wei), you quickly lead the cavalry to chase it back for me." Zhang Wei Lu ordered.

"Wei." Zhang Wei cupped his fists.

After sending his brothers to Yangping Pass, Zhang Lu asked Gong Cao Yan Pu to check the situation in the city to see if there were any clues of Pang Rou and Pang De's escape.

Zhang Wei rushed to Yangping Pass with [-] cavalry. After learning about the situation, he planned to lead the cavalry to chase after him along the Chen Cang Road in the Water River Valley of the Western Han Dynasty. He should be able to catch up with Pang Rou and Pang De within two days.

Yang Ren, Yang Bo, and Yang Song saw off at the pass. Zhang Wei thought for a while and then pointed to Yang Ren and said, "Ru lead [-] cavalry from the pass to the south, and return to Yangping within two days if there is no abnormality."

The Yang Song brothers were terrified when they heard that, if Yang Ren tried his best to catch up with the grain transportation team, then Song Chen and the others might be caught in one go. Thinking of this, they felt their hearts pounding, but they couldn't stop them in front of Zhang Wei. .

"But why?" Yang Ren asked curiously.

Zhang Wei frowned and said: "Yangping Pass is connected to Chencang Road in the north and Jinniu Road in the south. It is not impossible for Pang De to escape the pass and leave the city at night. Pound will take the credit for the crime."

"The last general takes orders." Yang Ren clasped his fists sonorously.

"If General Yang goes out to pursue the attack, who will guard these fortresses? Why don't I let my younger brother Bai chase after him? After all, he is the deputy general who guards the pass." Yang Song finally couldn't sit still.

Zhang Wei shook his head and nodded again: "If Yang Ren is not at Yangping Pass, General Yang Bai will be the general guarding the pass."

"Wei." Yang Bai cupped his fists to accept the order, and suddenly he felt a dove occupying the magpie's nest.

Zhang Wei and Yang Ren then led the cavalry to part ways. Yang Song pondered for a moment and was about to drive his horse back to Hanzhong. Yang Bo asked excitedly, "There is nothing important about Hanzhong. Brother, why don't you stay at Yangping Pass and wait for news?"

Yang Song quickly shook his head, "Brother Song tried his best to calculate, but Zhang Wei didn't follow the common sense at all. I must return to Hanzhong immediately. If there is anything unfavorable, I can find a way to deal with it in advance."

"Brother is more thoughtful. I hope that Song Jiang (Song Chen's pseudonym) will be on the road non-stop overnight. As long as he and Yang Ren are separated by two days, he will be safe and we will get rich." Yang Bai sighed.

Yang Song nodded, "You stay here to take care of yourself. Brother Song is a blessed and wise man. I think he can turn evil into good luck."

After the two brothers parted, Yang Song quickly returned to Hanzhong. The city was as normal as before. Although he and Song Chen had close contacts, they had always been cautious. The transportation of rice and grain was carried out in secret, and Yan Pu did not find any clues.

A few days later, Zhang Wei and Yang Ren returned to Hanzhong empty-handed, and neither Chen Cangdao nor Jin Niudao found Pang De.

"How is this possible? Pang De and the others went to heaven and earth?" Zhang Lu was furious when he heard the news, and said in his heart that you all ascended earlier than me?

Zhang Lu was furious with a dark face, and all the officials under the tent dared not speak. During this whole time, Gong Cao Yanpu came to the palace to see him, saying that he had found some clues in the past few days.
