Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 511

Hearing this, Liu Bei felt chills down his back, and followed him to observe the sand table. He looked at the throat of Pang Tong's finger, which was the Mianbei camp guarded by Zitong prefect Huo Jun. The consequences of losing this place would be disastrous.

"Zhong Miao (Huo Jun) is good at defense. I have left five thousand soldiers for him. Even if Cao Cao sends someone to attack, he may not be able to conquer there." Liu Bei comforted himself.

Fazheng frowned and shook his head: "If I'm not wrong, Cao Cao can't just send out one army, he will definitely send people out of Yangping to attract attention, so that Cao's army that crossed Zoumaling can take advantage of it. Combined attack, Prefect Huo may not be able to defend."

"If the food road is cut off, Dingjun Mountain will be in danger. What can I do?" Liu Bei said in a hurry.

Pang Tong hurriedly comforted: "Fortunately, we have the information from Captain Song, otherwise Jin Niu Dao may put us in a passive position. Yangping Pass is closer to Zou Maling by passing through Ma Ming Pavilion. Send troops to defend Zoumaling, if Cao Jun invests more troops there, my lord will have to send troops back to help."

"Cao's army is much stronger than ours. Let's wait until Cao Cao's army arrives tomorrow. Even if we have a fixed army and a favorable mountainous location, the disparity in strength cannot stop us." Fazheng reminded.

"Cao Cao is really powerful. It's so easy for me to be unable to look at both ends." Liu Bei frowned.

"My lord, don't worry, with Captain Song's information, Cao Cao's plan will be half defeated." Pang Tong comforted him.

"The heart to prepare for the acquisition of Hanchuan is as firm as a rock, how can it be shaken by some tricks?" Liu Bei said solemnly and then asked Zhang Shun: "How many people are there in Yangping Pass? There will be no danger, right?"

Zhang Shun clasped his fists and replied, "There are five people including Lieutenant Song, working under the noses of the enemy. We have experienced it several times, so there shouldn't be any serious problems."

"Very good." Liu Bei nodded.

Heavy footsteps sounded outside the tent, and Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, and Chen Dao, who was carrying a winter coat, walked in.

"My lord, military advisor." Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong clasped their fists in salute.

Chen Dao handed the winter clothes to Zhang Shun and was about to leave when Pang Tong suddenly stopped him and said, "I'm going to trouble Uncle Zhi and go again, General. My lord still has something to ask Captain Deng (Deng Ai)."

After Pang Tong finished speaking, Liu Bei immediately understood, and at this time he met Chen Dao's confirming eyes.

Liu Bei nodded and ordered: "Follow what the military adviser said, and find a place for Zhang Shun to settle down by the way."

"Wei." Chen Dao responded with cupped fists.

Zhang Shun wisely left the cloak behind, and followed Chen Dao out of the big tent.

"Military division, is there any important military affairs? Is General Zilong and I not enough?" Huang Zhong walked up to Pang Tong and asked.

Huang Zhongzheng's beheading of Xia Houyuan was just when he was proud of his spring breeze. He had great respect for the two military advisers Pang Tong and Fazheng. One must know that without Fazheng's strategic assistance, it would be difficult for him to achieve this heaven-defying feat.

Pang Tong called Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong to the sand table, pointed to the location that he had discussed with Fazheng, and ordered: "The two generals purge their troops and horses tonight, and go down the back mountain in the early morning of tomorrow. They will come here secretly to find a suitable place to camp. If Cao Jun's food and grass pass through the border, he will send troops to attack it."

The task was simple and clear, Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong both nodded in agreement.

Fazheng went to the two of them and added: "Cao Cao has sent Zhang He to guard the food along the way, you two can support each other, both in the open and in the dark. You must focus on robbing the food, followed by retreating Zhang He."

"Military commander, don't worry, Huang Zhong is the most obedient."

"The last general respectfully listens to the orders of the lord and the military adviser."

Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong expressed their opinions one after another. Liu Bei's mind was on the way of Jinniu at this time, so he said absent-mindedly: "You two keep in mind the words of the military adviser and be careful. Remember to send news every day to ensure that there is no danger."

"Wei." Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong replied in unison.

Liu Bei raised his hand, "It's getting late at this time, you should return to camp early to prepare."

The two said goodbye and Liu Bei left the big tent hand in hand. When they passed by Fazheng, Huang Zhong suddenly stopped and asked in a low voice: "My lord sent someone to call Deng Shizai, don't we have to wait for him?"

Fazheng waved his hands and replied, "We have other plans for Captain Deng Du. It's a great achievement for the two generals to contain the grain road. Let's go back quickly."

"I can save it." Huang Zhong walked away with a lot of satisfaction.

Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun had just stepped out of the military tent for more than ten steps when they saw Chen Dao and Deng Ai walking towards this side.

Deng Ai had known Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong since he was a child by the martial arts lecture hall, and he hurriedly greeted Chen Dao with fists in his arms, regardless of Chen Dao's presence.

"General Zilong, General Huang Lao."

Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun looked at each other with a smile, and couldn't help sighing: "Shi Zai is young and promising, go in quickly, the lord and the military advisor are still waiting for you."

Deng Ai bowed and bowed: "Then I will go to visit you later."

After they parted ways and continued to move forward, Huang Zhong saw that his white beard suddenly stopped when he was walking.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Yun stopped at the same time.

Huang Zhong shook his head, "Thinking that I, Huang Zhong, met the Ming Lord in his sixties, seeing the time go by, and Deng Shizai was crowned not long ago, and has already been regarded so highly by the Lord."

Zhao Yun smiled openly: "It's rare to see an old general sigh like this, but how can you envy others when everyone has their own destiny? Shi Zai met a good man, otherwise he wouldn't stand out from the crowd at such a young age, and his fate is also fate at this time."

Huang Zhong nodded in agreement: "Zilong is right. Destiny has treated me very favorably. I am honored to be appreciated by Mr. Lan and recommended to my lord. Otherwise, how can I achieve so many meritorious deeds? This is beyond the reach of many people."

"Setting the army to kill Xiahou, the old general will surely leave his name in history." There was no trace of jealousy in Zhao Yun's clear eyes.

Huang Zhong smiled and comforted: "Zilong, you are still so young, when you reach my age, you will surely be famous all over the world."

"Let's go, we have to go back to the camp for preparations." Zhao Yun nodded slightly.

Huang Zhong hit the palm of his left hand with his right fist, and said regretfully, "We left in such a hurry just now, we forgot to ask one more question."

"What are you asking?" Zhao Yun looked puzzled.

"My lord and the military adviser forgot to name the general, who will listen to whom when we get to the place?" Huang Zhong seemed a little embarrassed.

"The military adviser asked us to support each other, so there shouldn't be any distinction between the master and the deputy?" Zhao Yun looked at Huang Zhong's posture, as if he wanted to be the master general.

Huang Zhong quickly waved his hand, "The so-called snake can't do without a head, there must be a leader, why don't we go back and find out?"

Zhao Yun frowned and replied: "My lord, the military advisor, and the soldier Zai are talking about something. I'm afraid it would be inappropriate for us to return after receiving the military order."

"Then the old man will do his part, and Zilong will take me as the master."

"My lord, the military adviser has not been decided, how about the old general?"

Huang Zhong once again stopped in his tracks and said solemnly: "What's wrong? The lord Jinkou wants to make me the general who conquers the West. No matter in terms of age or official position, I can be the general, right?"

"Uh, no matter what, the old general is the main one."

Zhao Yun seemed very helpless, his qualifications and official position were too mismatched, it might be a matter of fate and timing.
