Chapter 326: Grain

Entering the camp, Wang Can, LΓΌ Meng, and Zhang Hu acted separately.

LΓΌ Meng led people in the direction of Zhang Lu; Zhang Hu led people in the direction of Yanpu.

Yang Hong smiled and walked with Wang Can to the storehouse where the grain was hoarded. Along the way, although he met the soldiers in charge of night patrol in the camp several times, Yang Hong easily coped with them.

Wang Can and Yang Hong walked together, and suddenly asked, "Yang Hong, do you know the general who is responsible for guarding the grain warehouse?" ”

Yang Hong glanced at Wang Can, saw Wang Can staring at him, thought about it, nodded and said, "My lord, the general who guards the grain warehouse is named Hu Lin, and he has invited him to drink a few times, and he has a little friendship. ”

As he spoke, Yang Hong showed a hint of pride on his face.

Now, it's time for him Yang Hong to perform.

Wang Shan is his backer for the time being, but one day he will surpass Wang Shan.

It's a pity that Yang Hong doesn't know that Wang Shan is Wang Can, and it is impossible for him to surpass Wang Shan.

When Wang Can heard Yang Hong say that he had a friendship with Hu Lin, he was overjoyed and said, "Very good, if you have a friendship with Hu Lin, things will be much easier." When you arrive at the storehouse where the grain and grass are stored, you go and talk to Hulin and ask him for some food. And the eleven of us are the soldiers who carry the grain for you, and you take us into the warehouse with you to carry the grain. ”

Yang Hong nodded, patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, the villain will definitely complete the task." ”

Wang Can said with a smile: "As long as the matter is done, I will truthfully report your merits and ask for credit for you." ”

Yang Hong nodded and thanked him: "Thank you, thank you, thank you." ”

Although Yang Hong didn't know that Wang Shan was Wang Can, the person standing in front of him was Hanzhong Taishou. However, this did not prevent Yang Hong from currying favor with Wang Can. He now regards himself as an official in Hanzhong, and Wang Can is Yang Hong's temporary backer. Therefore, Yang Hong's demeanor was respectful, and he couldn't see any dissatisfaction.

The group walked towards the camp where food was hoarded.

"My lord, it's coming soon."

Yang Hong looked at the blazing torches in front of him and the soldiers standing guard in charge of the night, and whispered.

Wang Can also saw countless soldiers in front of him, and with a hum, he motioned for Yang Hong to continue advancing.

Immediately, Wang Can stopped and paused for a moment, distanced himself from Yang Hong, and let Yang Hong walk in front. Because Wang Can and the other teenagers played Yang Hong's subordinates, they naturally couldn't walk side by side with Yang Hong, so they could only follow Yang Hong respectfully and show the etiquette that subordinates should have.

Yang Hong held his head high and strode forward, and when he approached the warehouse, Hu Lin, the captain in charge of guarding the warehouse, saw Yang Hong, showed a look of surprise on his face, and exclaimed: "Hey, isn't this Yang Hong, Lord Yang?" You are responsible for patrolling the camp, taking care of the safety of the camp, and you are busy with official business, how can you have free time to come to the barn? ”

There was a hint of surprise and flattery in his tone.

After hearing this, Yang Hong smiled and said, "Master Hu, isn't this a request for you, coming to you?" ”

Hu Lin's face changed, and he scolded: "Brother Yang, let's just see, who is with whom?" are all buddies and brothers, you say that you have a request for the elder brother, but you are out of sight, and you don't treat the eldest brother as a brother. ”

When Yang Hong saw Hu Lin and him calling him a brother, he sighed in his heart, and secretly scolded Hu Lin for seeing the wind and steering the rudder, which is not a good thing.

In the past, when Yang Bai had not made meritorious contributions, Yang Hong kept his voice low every time he looked for Hu Lin, and he had to pay out of his pocket to buy good wine and good food to serve. Now Yang Bai has defeated Wang Can and two generals in a row, and his status is rising. There is a Tao is a person who has attained the Tao, the chicken dog ascends to heaven, Yang Bai's status has improved, Yang Hong, as a distant relative of Yang Bai, his status has also improved a lot, and he wants to slap Yang Hong, so that Yang Hong can say a few good words and say two good words in front of Yang Bai.

Hulin, is one of them.

In the past, it was Yang Hong who asked Hu Lin, and now Hu Lin has asked Yang Hong.

Encountering such a situation, Yang Hong wanted to laugh a few times and vent the joy in his heart. However, Yang Hongzheng needed Hu Lin's help, and he smiled and said, "Brother, my brother needs your help!" ”

Hu Lin thought for a while and said, "Brother Yang, you are also a general in the army, you know the rules of the army, and there are many things that I can't decide, and I don't dare to call the shots." In this way, as long as it is something that the eldest brother can do, I will never shirk; If you can't do it, try to help your brother, what do you think? ”

Yang Hong said gratefully: "Brother Hu, don't worry, the younger brother's affairs are very simple, and the eldest brother will not be embarrassed." ”

Hu Lin said, "Well, let's say, what is it?" ”

Yang Hong glanced at the soldiers behind him, and said with a smile: "Our army has just recruited some recruits, these people are like evil ghosts reincarnated, the amount of food is very large, and the food supplied in the army is not enough to eat. ”

When Hu Lin heard this, he asked: "Brother, food is the foundation of the army, you are embarrassed brother!" ”

Yang Hong said: "Don't worry, brother, you are not busy in vain in this matter, I will go to my cousin immediately after I go back, and say a few good words for my brother in front of him, what do you think?" ”

Hu Lin smiled and said, "Brother, how much food do you need?" It's okay to have less, but it's okay to have more. ”

Yang Hong said: "Brother, my brother has to think about you when he does things, I just need a stone of grain." ”

When Hu Lin heard this, he smiled and said, "A stone of grain can almost be ignored in the warehouse, and the old brother still has the right to embezzle this bit of grain." Let's go, go to the warehouse with my brother. After saying that, Hu Lin walked in front and asked the soldiers guarding the warehouse to open the storeroom, and then entered the storeroom first.

Yang Hong looked at Wang Can, nodded, turned around and followed Hu Lin into the warehouse.

The group walked quickly towards the warehouse.

After entering the warehouse, a pungent smell came to my nose.

Hu Lin frowned, and said, "Brother, the grain is piled up in the warehouse, you can do it yourself, and the elder brother will go out first." ”

After saying that, Hu Lin hurried out.

He didn't worry about Yang Hong hiding the grain at all, after all, the grain was packed in a sack, and if he wanted to move it, he had to be carried by several people together before he could take it out of the warehouse. As long as Hu Lin stood guard outside the warehouse and waited for Yang Hong to carry the grain out, he would be able to know how much grain Yang Hong had taken. If Yang Hong takes too much, he can let people stop Yang Hong; If he takes less, he will turn a blind eye and let Yang Hong leave.

Therefore, Hu Lin left the warehouse with confidence and let Yang Hong carry the grain.

"Ahem!" Yang Hong choked on the pungent smoke and dust, and coughed lightly, and said, "Lord Wang, the matter has been done, what are we going to do next?" ”

Wang Can didn't seem to hear Yang Hong's words, looked at the mountains of grain, and muttered to himself: "Zhang Lu has only tens of thousands of troops, how can he hoard so much grain?" ”

As far as the eye could see, stacks of sacks containing grain were piled up, and countless grains were piled up in the makeshift warehouse, so much grain that Wang Can couldn't help but envy. In the Qin and Han dynasties, one stone of grain was about 120 Han catties, which was about 15 kilograms when exchanged for the current catties. In other words, one stone of grain in the Han Dynasty was about 30 catties.

Zhang Lu led the troops to defeat Wang Can, with a total of 36,000 soldiers under his command, and the soldiers traveled long distances and lacked oil and water.

It is conservatively estimated that each soldier eats one pound of grain a day.

All the soldiers together consume 36,000 catties of food a day.

In the end, you need to consume at least 1,000 stone of grain a day, and 10,000 stone of grain a month. However, Wang Can carefully looked at the spacious warehouse, and the amount of food he hoarded was innumerable, definitely more than 300,000 stones. So much food is enough for the army led by Zhang Lu to eat for a few years.

Liu Yan sent troops to attack him, how could he supply so much food?

This scene made Wang Can full of doubts.

Yang Hong saw that Wang Can was stunned, and said: "Lord Wang, some time ago, when he encountered heavy rain on his face, Zhang Lu sent people to urge Liu Yan several times to say that the grain was wet by the heavy rain, so that it was moldy and unusable. ”

Wang Can asked, "Do you actually know?" ”

Yang Hong smiled awkwardly and said, "I listen to what others say. ”

Wang Can looked at the mountains of grain, and said with a smug expression on his face: "Zhang Lu hoarded so much grain because he wanted to conquer Hanzhong and establish himself after conquering Hanzhong!" Very good, very good...... So much food, I laughed. ”

Yang Hong listened to Wang Can and didn't know why.

But there is one thing that Yang Hong still figured out, the grain piled up in the warehouse must be loaded into Wang Can's warehouse.

Wang Can asked Yang Hong to take him into the storehouse where he was hoarding grain and grass, with the intention of burning the grain and igniting a fire, causing chaos in the Yizhou army. But when he found that there were hundreds of thousands of stones of grain piled up in the warehouse, Wang Can had the idea of taking it for himself. After all, hundreds of thousands of stone grains are enough for Wang Can's army to support a few years, which can also accelerate the development of Hanzhong.

Yang Hong asked, "Lord Wang, what are we going to do next?" ”

Wang Can smiled and said, "Of course it's moving grain, what else can you do?" ”

Yang Hong asked, "So much grain?" How to move out? ”

Wang Can secretly scolded Yang Hong for being a fool, Yang Hong told Hu Lin to ask for food, if he didn't cover it up with a little food, he would definitely not be able to get through. Wang Can said: "Hu Lin is waiting outside, we have to get some food, otherwise it is easy to make people suspicious, understand?" ”

Yang Hong nodded, revealing a look of understanding.

Wang Can stretched out his hand and pointed to the two teenagers closest to him, and ordered: "You two, go and carry a bag of grain, it doesn't take too much, you just need to make a show." ”

"No!"

The two teenagers responded and immediately picked out a smaller sack.

Yang Hong walked in the front, Wang Can walked behind, and the group walked out of the warehouse quickly.
