Chapter 103 The thief shouts to catch the thief

All the matter was stopped. Yuan Shang returned to the county government office and immediately wrote a book back to Jizhou. However, he did not express his intention to deal with Zhang Yan. He only said that the black bandits were rampant in Zhongshan County, with large and concentrated troops, which was quite harmful to the local area. He seriously interfered with the normal government rectification of nearby counties and counties. He asked Yecheng to send troops to assist him in rectifying the Black bandits.

At that time, Yuan Shao was hurt because of Yuan Tan's bitter plan, and his mind was confused, which was not as usual. He was angry that he was very suspicious of his son, and felt that he was really harsh, strict, and excessive in treating his son.

As the lord of a prince and a large group of people, Yuan Shao himself has no good morals that can be corrected by knowing his mistakes. Instead, he is extremely arrogant and has a very high bottom line for the king. Whoever dares to touch his bottom line and provoke him? I'm sorry, this person doesn't think about living a good life. Typically, I'm good, you can't live a good life.

But in terms of treating his son, his bottom line is pitifully low. He doesn't count on being abusive to protecting his children. He also reflects on himself every now and then. He summarizes the way he treats his son is not too exciting, and he is unreasonable. He often encourages and is very responsible.

What a dad!

Based on this point, when Yuan Shao read Yuan Shang's letter, he suddenly felt annoyed in his heart.

Of course, this annoyance was not aimed at his precious son, but about the annoyance of the black bandits.

It was difficult to make up my mind and sent my son to the grassroots level to experience it. The child is very committed and is just about to achieve some political achievements. You poor thieves who have no eyesight come out to mess around. Is it unbearable? If you don’t give you some good taste, you are the three masters of the Yuan family, who are easy to bully?

Yuan Shao has been fighting since childhood and has lived a life of bullying others. He has never let others live a life of being a bear. As he grows older, his temper becomes more and more arrogant, with a spirit of being arrogant and arrogant in the world.

Therefore, in Jizhou, an elite force led by the general Jiang Yiqu was drawn from the heavy troops guarding Li Yang. In addition, two generals were sent to Yecheng, Lu Weihuang and Zhao Rui, and a total of three powerful troops went to the Zhongshan border to assist Yuan Shang in suppressing the bandits.

Yuan Shang was shocked when he learned the news, fearing that the three powerful soldiers were too powerful, which could easily arouse Zhang Yan's suspicion, so he hurriedly sent someone to inform him, asking them to secretly dismiss the border south of Zhongshan, and not to be too arrogant. Just wait for their own preparations before obeying the orders and waiting for the call at any time.

At the same time, under Lu Lingqi's strong request, the Babai Wuji Camp, which had just begun to take shape, also prepared for the first real battle after the founding of the army.

As for the Zhen Mansion, at the call of Zhen Mi, he also began to prepare large quantities of food and supplies, and acted as if he was transported to Yecheng. After the incense bait was arranged, he was waiting for the old loach Zhang Yan to get hooked online.

As expected, things were not unexpected. Just as everything was ready, Heishan secretly sent someone to the Zhen Mansion and asked to send someone to secretly meet the person in charge of the Zhen Mansion.

**********************There is a deserted and deserted village on the back of Wuji County.

"Kala!"

Another shrill lightning flashed across the dark sky, illuminating a man in gray who was moving fast in the snow and rain. He was covered with a straw cloak that could wrap his body and a hat on his head. Unfortunately, the snow rain was too heavy, and the clothes, shoes and socks inside were still wet. The hair under the hat was dripping with rain, and it slid down his dark face.

Even so, the man in gray decided to go to somewhere in the barren village ahead.

When he was young, his horse's figure flashed and he had already reached the entrance of the village. But when he sat down, he couldn't help but slow down without realizing it.

The feeling of horses is stronger than that of people. He keenly noticed a strange abnormality in the village, as if the snow and rain were floating all over the sky were hiding the breath of death. And the mountain village in the evening was so quiet, as quiet as a dead city.

The man in gray did not stop and rode his horse to a thatched hut near the east of the village. He looked at it privately, then took off his hat, looked up and pushed the door and walked into the room.

There were already a few people in the room, surrounding a fire burning with wooden strips to keep warm.

"Yan Shuai, I'm back!"

The man in gray saw that there was someone in the hut, and he was obviously prepared for it. He respectfully bowed to the person who was standing high in the middle and said something.

Zhang Yan is quite tall, with a bold and powerful face, a wide nose and a chaotic hair spreading to her shoulders, with an arrogant and arrogant attitude that looks down on the world, and is as fashionable as she is in such a down-and-out fashion. You can imagine how powerful and stylish he was when he was in his prime in the past.

"Wang Dang, you kid finally came back, but I was waiting for me so anxiously that I almost endured me to death, and then!"

After saying that, a wine bag flew over the air and landed steadily in the hands of the King of Qu Shuai who had just entered the house.

Zhang Yan's voice was heroic and his speech was very rough. If he didn't know him, no one would have thought that this overlord of the Black Mountain who was so powerful that he would speak so casually.

Wang Dang took the wine bag, and was not polite. He opened his mouth and raised his head and took a sip, then wiped his mouth and said, "Ship Yan, the general has already verified it with the Zhen family. This time, there is a big deal to do!"

Zhang Yan snorted coldly and said, "Big deal? How big can it be? No matter how big a deal is, you hungry wolves will not be familiar with you. You are restless day by day and you will be worried."

Wang Dang smiled slightly and said softly: "The grain and fodder are 200,000 stones, more than 9,000 chariots, and there are still countless horses. Four days later, the Zhongshan County Magistrate dispatched 7,000 civilians to carry this year's rent and taxes, and walked on the official road of Xianshan. Half of the grain and fodder are collected and transported by the Zhen family. After the collection, they will be transported directly to Yecheng."

When he finished speaking, several Qu coaches beside Zhang Yan were shocked by the sudden news.

Good, more than 200,000 stones of grain, how high should it be piled up? How many granaries should it be installed?

Zhang Yan's expression also changed a little. Her big hand covered with calluses tightly held the wine bag and said, "It's great, how can I draw so much food and supplies? What does Yuan Shao's old loach want to do?"

Wang Dang chuckled after hearing this and said, "It is reported that Yuan Pifu suffered a great loss in Guandu before the New Year, and was not very convinced. At this time, he was gathering troops, horses, food and grass in Yecheng. He wanted to pour out the troops from Hebei and go south to fight with Cao Cao after the beginning of spring. Therefore, all the states and counties received orders to speed up plans and prepare for pre-war affairs. Yan Shuai! The situation is special at this time, and it may be a good opportunity for us!"

Zhang Yan thought for a while and said, "How many officers and soldiers are escorting?"

"It is said that the prefects of Zhongshan and Changshan County jointly sent troops to escort the troops, but as long as we plan properly, it is not scary!"

"In previous years, it was not the self-transport of each county. When did he come again to join forces to protect the troops?"

"Changshan County was poor and suffered a severe drought last year. I guess I wanted to use the reasons to get rid of the benefits of Zhongshan to smooth the gap."

"Where are the officers and soldiers hiding now?"

"The soldiers and horses of the two counties have been planned separately, and the front has gathered. I heard that they want to join forces with Yuan County."

"Which escort? Can there be famous generals from the Tao?"

"Who are you, the general of the second county, Yan Shuai? They are all people who are worthy of wine and food. Even if they all come, they are not afraid!"

After hearing Wang Dang's answer, the hut seemed to be in an uproar. The coach present was talking and talking, whispering to each other, venting his surprise and excitement.

It is no wonder that the crowd is excited. Today, the Black Mountains are still working hard to fill their stomachs and work hard to survive the unswerving winter. Now, there is a big deal of 200,000 shi. How can we not be surprised or happy?

Now there are about 20,000 elite soldiers following Zhang Yan. If you support one person, you will consume about six stones of food every year. Two hundred thousand stones are enough for these bandits for nearly two years. If you save money, even if you support it for three years, it would be fine.

What's more, there are also armors, and horses can also improve their combat power. Even those who pull grain trucks to get livestock are also a huge wealth for the current Black Mountain Army.

"Ship Yan! This wealth is God's kindness. If you don't take it, you will be angry with the gods and you will be dissatisfied with the public!"

"That's right, Yan Shuai, let's rob! Although the troops in our hands are scattered, there are still more than 20,000 available soldiers. It is not impossible to eat this batch of food and fodder!"

"The soldiers and generals of Zhongshan and Changshan counties are all drunk. The last general is not talented, so he is willing to lead the headquarters to place them. If they cannot, they will be dealt with by military law."

Zhang Yan thought for a moment and suddenly said, "Although the guardians of the two counties are all a group of brainless candids, they weigh one by one, and find a pair of people who can carry my shoes, but there is so much food and fodder. In the Yecheng, there must be soldiers and generals coming to pick up the guards. You must wait. If you want to take action, you must be an elite strong cavalry and seize it quickly! Otherwise, if you wait for Yuan Lao Niu's support, you will be hurt and overwhelmed. If you are worried about going there, you will have to take action yourself!"

Zhang Yan himself defended the rapid and rapid force, and used long-term raids as the most. Therefore, he was given the nickname "Flying Yan" in the army. When he thought about it carefully, he was quite similar to Xiahou Yuan.

If he wants to quickly hijack the food and fodder and retreat, if he takes a closer look, he is the most suitable person.

But Zhang Yan suddenly glanced at the coach of Qu and ordered: "From Zhongshan to the southwest of 100 miles, there is a small county called Dongyi. The officers and soldiers want to go to Yecheng, which is the only way to pass. The mountains and forests outside the city are steep and easy to come and go freely, and it is just right to fight. Each department will make meals at the fifth day of tomorrow. It is time to start to go to Dongyi first! Wait until the grain team arrives, and then make a decision!"

"promise!"

********** Three days later, Zhang Yan's troops arrived in Dongyi and suppressed Dongyi City with lightning speed.

All the county officials were detained by Zhang Yan. He ordered the city to be blocked. Not to mention people, animals, birds and insects, even if there is a wave of shit, they are not allowed to be pulled outside the city.

In this way, you can attack and retreat or defend. If you have bad things, you can use Dongyi to return to Taihang, which is also a good strategy.

One day later, the troops escorted troops from the second county slowly came towards Dongyi County. After Zhang Yan found out the enemy's military and horse arrangements, he immediately waited for the battle and prepared for a calamity.

The battle between the Yuan family and the Black Mountain bandits was about to break out.

In the middle of the night, Dongyi County was dark and the lights were only on in the depths of the gates occasionally. The small Dongyi County was like a beast that chose people to eat at any time, flashing with faint sneering light.

Zhang Yan's soldiers were ambushed on both sides of the official woods outside the city. The horses put on their mouths and wrapped their hooves in cloth. They were so quiet that they could only hear the sound of the night wind blowing slowly.

Looking at the team of Marry County slowly coming not far away, a fierce smile appeared on the corner of Zhang Yan's mouth.

When the opponent was allowed to pass, when he could see the tail of the opponent's food and fodder team, he saw Zhang Yan wave his hand and rode out first. Behind him, Wang Dang, Guo Daxian, Zuo Xia, Sun Qing and others rode out. The Heishan army was all over the mountains, like a group of jackals snatching food, and rushed towards the convoy in the official road.

Using rapid action to slow down, using fast action to fight slow, and using fast action to achieve twice the result with half the effort. This is Zhang Yan's years of experience in the war.

Unexpectedly, seeing the Black Mountain Army rush out, the official army seemed to be in a panic. The general who was in the middle of the support had already expected it. He raised the spear in his hand and shouted loudly: "Rise the shield! Bow full! Welcoming the enemy!"

Using grain trucks and shields as barriers, the archers pressing the grain pulled the sharp weapons in their hands one after another. The bow was like a full moon. When they heard the order, they all let go of their hands. The rain of arrows suddenly cut through the sky and fell into the charge formation of the thieves. Among the thieves, there were also archers who bent their bows and fought back, and the howling suddenly sounded in the two sides of the formation.

The capture of grain began the fierce battle.

There were more archers than Black Mountain bandits, and they were much more neat. A wave of arrows took away the lives of at least a hundred Black Mountain bandits. Some people were shot directly into the ground by force, making a whine before death, but no one was willing to show their compassion and stop, and they all ran past him and rushed forward.

Because of the premeditation and the impact was rapid, the arrow battle was only a moment. The next fierce battle was the fierce battle between the two sides. Around the food and supplies, the official army and the thieves were fighting back and forth on the official road, fighting fiercely, and a harsh scream resounded through the long quiet sky.

The bandits suddenly broke out, and the officials and soldiers were not panicked. They resisted the enemy at the forefront. Although it was due to a disadvantage, they still struggled to support each other and fought bravely without retreating at all.

As a result, although the thieves had the upper hand, Zhang Yan's heart began to feel a little heavy over time.

A bad thought slowly came into my mind.

As if in response to his thoughts, a violent sound of horse hooves suddenly came from the official road behind the grain.

“Woo woo--!”

The sound of the sound of the horns cut through the bloody night sky, from far to near, shaking the mountains and surging the wind and water. But a well-equipped battle cavalry surged from far to near, like a tide, as if riding on the waves and riding on the wind, causing everyone in the fight to look at each other.

The cavalry came from behind and instantly defeated a group of Black Mountain troops who were about to go up to meet. Their momentum was like the wind, their battles were like fire, and their swords were flying, and they were slashing and slashing in an orderly manner. While killing, they made a "screaming" sound of wolf howling.

"Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry!?"

Zhang Yan's face changed suddenly, and she subconsciously screamed, as if she couldn't believe the scene in front of her.

After the Wuji Camp dispersed the Black Mountain Army's blocking troops, they did not stop and raised their swords to fight again. Only the latter part of the stagnant horse and the periphery outside the battlefield circle surrounded their leaders, watching the battlefield coldly.

Zhang Yan lived in the official road, and in her eyes as deep and mysterious as an ancient well, a cold light suddenly flew over and looked at the person from afar, with a slightly surprised look in her expression.

In the light of the fire, the person who came seemed to have a bit of Yuan Shao's appearance, but he was a little younger, who was this boy?

Just when Zhang Yan was stunned, he saw that the boy pulled out a bronze object from behind him, with mouths at both ends, thick at the top and thin at the bottom.

A living ancient copycat trumpet.
