Shangdang County, Huguan.

"General, there is a letter in Luoyang." Suddenly, a voice came, and the general-looking person who was originally a little sluggish was shocked at this time, and he hurriedly looked in the direction where the voice came from.

"Bring the letter!" At this moment, the general-looking man hurriedly stepped forward and met the sergeant who had come to report the news.

Before the sergeant could stretch out his hand, he saw a man who looked like a general snatched the letter from the sergeant's hand.

The general was none other than Zhang Yan, the leader of the Montenegrin Army.

Since Zhang Yan promised Liu Xie, she has put a lot of effort into besieging the party.

Although at the beginning, Xu Shu used some means, and it was quite difficult to make Zhang Yan agree to help.

But Zhang Yan didn't agree, and as soon as he agreed, he went all out to do it, and he looked like he had made a promise.

Originally, Xu Shu and Guan Hai were going to stay here for more time to supervise Zhang Yan, who knew that seeing Zhang Yan have such energy, Xu Shu and Guan Hai returned to Liu Xie's side early.

Although Zhang Yan seemed to be a trivial matter in front of Xu Shu and them, the actual pressure was something that only he could understand.

In the previous days of the Montenegrin Army, it could be said that it was a guerrilla-like existence, and if they fired a shot to change places, they would run away without a trace before the officers and soldiers arrived.

And this siege of Shangdang County can be said to be the first time that the Montenegrin Army has confronted the official army in a real sense.

Originally, even Zhang Yan felt in his heart that the official army was not terrible, after all, the Yellow Turban Army had chased them all over the ground before, didn't they.

But only when Zhang Yan really confronted the official army, did he find that he was very wrong, and Zhang Yan suffered a big loss for the first time against the official army.

Guoheng is destroyed by weakness, and Duhan is dyed by strength, this is true, even if Zhang Yang and others are not too visible among the warlords, the sergeants under his command are also trained soldiers.

Zhang Yan, who recognized the situation, immediately changed his strategy, encircling Shangdang or surrounding Shangdang, but avoided fighting head-on with the official army.

At the beginning, the official army saw that the Black Mountain Army seemed to dare not dare to confront him, and he was immediately arrogant, and he came out of Shangdang County and headed for Luoyang in a grand manner.

And it wasn't until they got out of Shangdang County that the officials and military understood the power and methods of the Montenegrin Army, and the means of harassment of the Montenegrin Army were simply endless, and it may be that a squad of the officers and soldiers had just entered the mountains and forests to relieve their hands, and they were afraid that they would be caught by the Montenegrin Army hiding in the shadows.

Although there were not many officers and soldiers who disappeared each time, this kind of attack did not know where it came from, so that the spirit of the officers and soldiers was always in a tense state, and they soon collapsed.

The reinforcements from Shangdang County, who had already reached the edge of the Yellow River, were forced to return to Shangdang County again.

This also formed a stalemate and confrontation between the two sides, but recently the official army didn't know what was going on, and attacked the Montenegrin army recklessly as if they were crazy, the original encounter was not a strong point, under the crazy attack of the official army, although the Montenegrin army temporarily blocked the official army within the range, but Zhang Yan knew in his heart that sooner or later his side would not be able to hold it first.

But what Zhang Yan thought about day and night was that he could wait for the letter from the King of Bohai, so that he could really withdraw his troops, because he really couldn't afford it.

This is why, after Zhang Yan saw the letter from the direction of Luoyang in the sergeant's hand today, he would be so out of shape.

"General Chuanben's order, withdraw the troops!" At this time, Zhang Yan had just finished reading the letter in his hand, and he announced to everyone with full anger.

Here, Zhang Yan doesn't want to stay for a moment!

And when they heard the news that their general was finally going to withdraw their troops, everyone in the Montenegrin Army was also boiling, it was not easy.

Originally, he just wanted to be a bandit who eats, drinks and has fun, coming and going freely between this Taihang Mountain, where did he think that one day he would become a side against the regular army of the official army, if it were not for Zhang Yan's absolute authority in the Montenegrin army, all his people would have mutinied.

The Montenegrin army withdrew very suddenly, and the officers and troops on the tower of Shangdang County just walked a god's work, and the Montenegrin army under the city withdrew without a trace.

This made the officers and soldiers who were originally on the city tower couldn't help but rub their eyes, and at the same time created a sense of unreality in everyone's hearts.

"The Montenegrin army has withdrawn? I'm not mistaken, right? A sergeant spoke the hearts of everyone above the tower.

"Really withdrawn! The Montenegrin army has withdrawn! After confirming that others were the same as what he saw, one of the sergeants could not help but jump for joy.

"What are you happy about? What if this is a trick by the Montenegrin army to lure us out of the city? At this time, there were cautious sergeants who stopped the people.

After the sergeant's words, everyone's faces were really full of suspicion, it was really because the previous methods of the Montenegrin army were too dirty in the eyes of the officials and soldiers, and normal people couldn't imagine how the Montenegrin army would play its cards at all.

"What you are discussing here, I will decide after I report to the county guard!" At this time, a person who looked like a school official stood up and said.

Sure enough, after the school officer finished speaking, all the sergeants nodded one after another, too, such a big thing has to worry about themselves and other soldiers.

When the school official told Zhang Yang the news, Zhang Yang and Yuan Shao in the house were stunned at the same time.

"What do you say? The Montenegrin army withdrew on its own? Zhang Yang asked the officer in disbelief, apparently he didn't think the Montenegrin Army would make such a move.

"My lord, this is the truth, the last general will not dare to lie for half a word, you just need to climb the tower and look outside." Hearing Zhang Yang's words, the school official immediately said to Zhang Yang.

Seeing that the school officer didn't look like he was cheating, he let the school officer leave first.

I saw Zhang Yang then turn around and ask Yuan Shao: "Originally, what do you mean by this Black Mountain Army, are you cheating?" ”

Hearing Zhang Yang's inquiry, Yuan Shao's tightly knit brows never stretched, and he shook his head and responded: "The Black Mountain Army thieves are cunning, and we have suffered a lot of hidden losses on them, so I suggest that Uncle Zhi should be careful." ”

"That's what I thought, too." Hearing that Yuan Shao's thoughts were the same as his own, Zhang Yang immediately agreed.

"Uncle Zhi, the Montenegrin Army is cunning, but I feel that something is wrong in the place where the Montenegrin Army sent troops, and at this time, this sudden move, if it is really withdrawn, if we can't get to Luoyang in time, I'm afraid that the general will punish it, after all, we have dragged on for a long time." Yuan Shao said to Zhang Yang at this time.

Hearing Yuan Shao's words, it resonated with Zhang Yang: "Indeed, these days, I have been surrounded by that black mountain thief so much that I can't even fly out, and I don't know what happened to Luoyang." ”
