Chapter Ninety-Five: Capture the Pass
"General, I don't know when you will attack Baishui Pass?" Zhang Wei asked cautiously.
Zhang Lang said unhappily: "When I attack Baishui Pass, I have my own opinions, I don't need to explain it to you!" ”
Zhang Wei was taken aback, "Yes, yes, how dare I ask about the general, it's just that my brother and the general attacked Xichuan together, so I hope the general can explain it a little, so that my brother won't be so worried!" ”
Zhang Lang glanced at Zhang Wei and asked with a smile, "What is Zhang Lu worried about?" ”
"Uh, this ......"
Zhang Lang said: "You go back and sue Zhang Lu, and I will have action in a few days." "Yes, yes, yes. Then, I will take my leave. ”
Zhang Lang nodded.
Zhang Wei saluted and left.
Back in Hanzhong City, Zhang Wei passed Zhang Lang's words to Zhang Lu intact, and Zhang Lu scolded angrily: "Just these few days! Just these days! I've heard this several times! What does he Lu Bu want to do? ”
Yan Pu took the opportunity to say: "My lord, if you continue to suffer from the chaos, you should immediately close the checkpoint and cut off the supply of money and food to Lu Bujun!" ”
Zhang Lu hesitated, "This, let's take another look." ”
……
After another period of time, on this day, just as Zhang Lu and the others were discussing in the lobby, Yan Pu hurriedly rushed in to report: "Lord, then Lu Bu has colluded with Liu Zhang. The sudden sentence was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and it almost didn't blow Zhang Lu unconscious.
After a long while, after relieving himself, Zhang Lu asked urgently, "What did you say?" ”
Yan Pu said: "My subordinates have just received news that the one million grains and 300,000 taels of silver that Liu Zhang gave to Lu Bu have arrived at Lu Bu's military camp. Lord, if Lu Bu didn't collude with Liu Zhang, why did Liu Zhang give him so much money and food? They are going to gang up to murder the lord! ”
Zhang Lu panicked, Yang Song and others were shocked.
"Lord, there is nothing to hesitate about now, hurry up and take measures!" Yan Pu said urgently.
Zhang Lu nodded.
Just as Zhang Lu was about to give an order, the guards came to report that Lu Bu's messenger had arrived. The crowd was very surprised, and Zhang Lu asked the guards to invite the messenger in.
The messenger, an officer in armor, followed the guards to the top of the lobby.
Yan Pu didn't wait for him to speak, he drew his sword and wanted to kill him, shouting in his mouth: "Three family slaves, do you still want to play tricks?" The officer was taken aback and hurriedly dodged. Zhang Lu Yang Song and the others were shocked, and hurriedly called the guards to stop them, and several guards poured into the hall to set up the crazy Yan Pu.
Yan Pu was in a hurry, "Lord, don't hesitate at this moment!" Kill this person immediately, and then fight Lu Bu in a decisive battle! Otherwise, disaster is not far off! ”
Zhang Lu's face turned blue with anger, and he shouted in a row: "Drag it out, drag it out!" ”
The guards immediately set up Yan Pu except for the hall, but Yan Pu shouted endlessly, and his voice was quite sad.
Zhang Lu hugged his fists at the envoy with an apologetic face and said: "This person suffers from madness and often has seizures, which disturbs the noble envoy, and I hope that the noble envoy will forgive his sins!" ”
The messenger said indifferently, "It's okay. Then he took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Zhang Lu, "This is a handwritten letter from the general to your lord, and the general said that your lord's questions will be understood after reading the letter." "Towards Zhang Lu hugged his fist," the letter has been delivered, and he is bidding farewell. ”
Zhang Lu didn't care about sending him, so he hurriedly opened the envelope, took out the letter, shook it open, read it quickly, a smile appeared on his face, and said happily: "I see!" I see! ”
Yang Song couldn't wait to ask, "Why is the lord so happy?" ”
Zhang Lu handed the letter to Yang Song, Yang Song hurriedly took the letter, read it again, and also showed joy, "Yan Pu is really worrying!" ”
Zhang Lu frowned and said, "Send someone to watch Yan Pu, don't let him do anything wrong." "No." Yang Song clenched his fists in agreement.
Zhang Lu said to Zhang Wei again: "Let Yang Ren Yang Ang gather the army and be ready to attack at any time." "Big brother, are we going to do it?" Zhang Lu smiled and nodded.
After Fa Zheng finished his army, he prepared to return and come to Zhang Lang for this trip.
However, as soon as I entered the big tent, I saw Zhang Lang sitting on top of the tent with his helmet and armor, and all the generals in the tent were fully armed, and the atmosphere was extremely solemn. Fa Zheng couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, stepped forward and hugged his fists and said: "General, I'm going back to Shuzhong, I'm here to bid farewell to the general!" ”
Zhang Lang stood up and said with a smile: "We plan to go to Xichuan with Mr. ”
Fa Zheng was shocked, his eyes widened and he pointed at Zhang Lang and said, "You, what do you want to ......?"
Zhang Lang walked up to Fa Zheng, "Sir, it's better to cooperate, do you understand what I mean?" ”
Fa Zheng angrily reprimanded: "Don't you think about it! You are a three-surnamed house slave with a beast's heart! I didn't expect to make a conspiracy in the first place! ”
Zhang Lang smiled, "If you don't want to, can you stop this matter?" It will only cost you your own life! You are a person with big ambitions, you probably don't want to die while you are still unknown, right? Zhang Lang's words touched Fa Zheng.
Zhang Lang continued: "Xichuan will only decline day by day in the hands of Liu Zhang, and sooner or later Xichuan will belong to a certain prince!" What's the point of working for him? In fact, I don't need to talk to you so much, if I kill you, I can still cheat the Baishui Pass, and you should know very well in your heart that the reason why I tell you so much is nothing more than that I hope you can recognize the facts and abandon the darkness and turn to the light. ”
Fa Zheng mocked: "Does the general think that he is Ming? ”
Zhang Lang smiled, "I know what you mean, you still don't know me, it's not strange to have this kind of thought." It seems that you will not be willing to cheat me out of the white water gate, it doesn't matter, you can stay here for the time being, I believe that in the near future, there will be good news. ”
Fa Zheng frowned.
Zhang Lang said to Xu Huang: "When I am not there, you are fully responsible here, remember my words!" "No."
Zhang Lang led the generals towards the outside of the big tent.
Fa Zheng hurriedly caught up, "Wait a minute, how are you going to attack Xichuan?" ”
Zhang Lang glanced at Fa Zheng and asked with a smile, "Are you curious?" Then I'll sell it first, and you'll find out soon. Yuluo led the generals out of the big tent.
Fa Zheng frowned, and his heart was in chaos.
Soon after, Fa Zheng got the news that the more than 1,000 soldiers and people who came with him were all detained, and then another news came, Zhang Lang set off with 20,000 soldiers and horses.
Two days later, the defenders of Baishui Pass saw a team of more than 1,000 people coming towards this side, and it looked like the Fazheng team that had gone out of the pass not long ago to the Lu Bu military camp to reward the army. The general on the tower of the city gate turned his head and said to the officer beside him: "Go and open the city gate, it's Mr. Fazheng and them!" The officer answered the promise and ran down the wall, beckoning the army to open the gates. No one felt anything wrong at the moment.
When the procession reached the city gate, the general on the city wall suddenly felt that something was wrong and hurriedly shouted: "Wait a minute! What about Mr. Fazheng? ”
But the man in the lead shouted, "Do it! More than 1,000 people drew their weapons and rushed towards the city gate. The general was shocked and hurriedly shouted: "Close the city gates!" Close the gates! "But those people have already rushed through the gates!
