Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 401
"Zhang Lu's people should have seen you, why don't Ling Ming go first?" Song Chen said in his heart, why are you causing trouble? Record everything, so I can tell Lan Tian personally when I return to Jiaozhou.

"Don't worry, General Song, I will climb up the mountain with them to watch the wind, and Zhang Lu's people won't be able to find it." Pound heard Song Chen praise Mr. Xuanxiao for a few days, and he couldn't help watching his disciples use soldiers.

Seeing that Pound couldn't be stopped, Song Chen only had to lead his horse towards Deng Ai.

Seeing that the two generals had gone and returned, Deng Ai clasped his fists and asked very curiously, "Do you have any instructions from the two generals?"

"It's the first time Shizai leads the army independently, and I'm ordered by my master to hold the battle for you." Song Chen was afraid that Deng Ai would disagree, so he carried him out of Lantian.

Pound was very shocked when he heard this. He knew that Song Chen was definitely lying, because he would have spoken out just now because of Lan Tian's order, and he would not wait until he went and returned.

After all, this child was still young, so he was easily fooled by the shrewd Song Chen.

"It should be inconvenient for General Pang to stay here, right? If Zhang Lu's people find you, it may affect the master's plan." Deng Ai hesitated.

"General Song and I went up to watch the wind. You don't have to worry about us, little general." Pound pointed to the upper left with a smile on his face.

"Okay." Deng Ai saw that it was too difficult to stop, and then led a group of soldiers to deploy ahead.

Pang De and Song Chen climbed up to the hiding spot on the slope, where there were only a dozen soldiers carrying flags, and they found out that it was Zitong Huo Jun's soldiers after they asked.

Because there were too few cavalry in Zitong County, Huo Jun only dispatched 2000 cavalry to let Deng Ai go first, and he led [-] infantry to come here.

After hearing this, Pang De took a reassurance that if he could persist until the arrival of two thousand infantry, he would not be afraid of the hundreds of cavalry sent by Zhang Lu.

"You don't seem to be carrying bows and crossbows. What will General Deng rely on to attract the enemy later? Are you picking up stones on the mountain and throwing them? I don't think there are many stones around here." Pound was very curious.

Huotou, the leader of the team, explained: "General Deng asked us to be suspicious soldiers. When we hear the order from the mountain, we can stand up and wave the flag and shout."

Weeds were overgrown in the place where they were hiding on the slope, and the road down the mountain was empty now. Pang De didn't know how Deng Ai ordered the suspicious soldiers, wondering if he would just take the dozens of people to retreat?

Although he is a young man with a vigorous blood, he is Mr. Xuan Xiao's disciple after all, so he shouldn't be so reckless.

"General Song, I think Deng Shizai's face is still childish, and he doesn't look like someone who has performed the crown ceremony. How old is he now?" Pang De asked.

Song Chen thought about it for a while, then twisted his fingers, and then said: "I seem to remember that he was born in the second year of Jian'an, so it should be insufficient now."

"It's really a hero out of a boy"

Pang De lamented that the world has become too turbulent, and another teenager who went to the battlefield, isn't this similar to the old master Ma Chao?

"Where did General Deng go? Why hasn't he come back for a long time?" Song Chen asked Huotou worriedly seeing Deng Ai gone for a long time.

After hearing that, Huotou shook his head, "General Deng just told us to follow orders. I really don't know what he's doing down the mountain."

At this time, there was a rush of horseshoes, and Deng Ai led dozens of cavalry to appear in sight, but there was a certain distance from the hiding point of the suspect.

Because the distance was relatively far, the archery and stone throwing that Pound considered were completely out of reach.

Yang Ren had not been chasing the Jinniu Road for less than a day. Based on his experience, if Pang De really took this road, he should have chased at least part of it. It made the horse's face numb from the cold.

On the [-]th day of the first lunar month, there were still snowflakes in Bashan from time to time. Under such harsh temperature conditions, cavalry marching quickly was prone to be infected with wind and cold.

Suddenly the scouts who opened the way ahead came to report that there were many rocks on the road more than ten feet ahead. There was no problem with passing but the speed would be reduced.

Stones often fell in the Bashan Mountains, but Yang Ren did not suspect that the enemy did it on purpose, so he asked the cavalry behind him to control the horses to slow down and slowly pass through the tens of feet of rocky road. He planned to clean it up when he returned.

Yang Ren frowned instantly when he was on the scene. This was obviously a man-made rock formation. He wondered if Pang De was really in front?

Yang Ren led the army through the stone formation carefully. When they passed a corner of the mountain, a cavalry team of [-] people came into view. This was not Pang Rou and Pound in his mind.

"Where is this man, how dare you offend Yizhou?" Deng Ai pointed a gun at Yang Ren and shouted.

Yang Ren saw that Deng Ai's clothes and armor were all in place. Although his face was dark and shiny, but the youthfulness and childishness between his brows could not be dispelled, Yang Ren held the reins and said with a smile, "You are a young general under the prefect Huo? Why did you get lost and come to this place?" Here? This place is close to Yangping Pass, which is the boundary of Hanzhong, so hurry back to Jiameng Pass, lest you lose your life in vain."

"Hanzhong is also the prefecture of Yizhou. Since you call yourself a general of Hanzhong, how dare you show off your power in front of this general? I am a captain under the command of General Zuo. Why don't you go back to Yangping Pass to defend? My lord will come to seize Hanzhong sooner or later. "Deng Ai's momentum is not weak at all.

Just as Yang Ren was about to speak, the general beside him reminded him: "General, after chasing for seventy or eighty miles, we didn't see Pang De, but met Liu Bei's scouts. They should have run to Chencang Road. Why don't we just lead our troops back?"

"Hmph, if you want to go back, you have to ask for a lot of money. This yellow-mouthed child is so arrogant, I should capture him and present him to the lord." Yang Ren replied coldly.

"Whispering what?" Deng Ai shouted.

"It's true that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, but they are not young at such a young age? Do you dare to announce your name and fight with me?" Yang Ren asked proudly.

"Nanyang Deng Ai, come and die quickly." Deng Ai patted his horse and stepped forward with a gun.

Seeing this, Yang Ren raised his sword to fight Deng Ai. When the sword and gun met, he realized that the young man had some skills.

It was the first time for Deng Ai to participate in the fight. At first, he seemed jerky due to lack of experience, but he became proficient after a few rounds.

It is said that boxing is afraid of the young, but it is the youth versus the old. A man like Yang Ren who is at the peak of his body actually fell into a disadvantage in the competition with the child. After a few moves, he had other thoughts.

Pang De and Song Chen were watching the battle on the hillside, and found that Deng Ai's marksmanship was becoming more and more proficient, so they couldn't help asking: "General Deng's marksmanship is good. Is this his first time fighting a general? He has gradually taken the initiative. If there are ten chances, Yang Ren will be defeated."

Song Chen nodded, "Before Deng Shizai entered Shu, he often accompanied Mr. Zhang. After entering Shu, he only farmed in Zitong. This must be his first battle."

"This boy can be of great use." Pound sighed.

Song Chen shook his head and didn't respond, thinking that you are completely nonsense, can the master's direct disciple be useless?
