It sounds simple to let yourself force a county to be too guarded, but the other party is a county guard, and you don't mess up the other party with this one?

Although Zhang Yan was known as the 100,000 Montenegrin Army before, he did most of the robbery, and he quickly ran away after one vote, so as not to be too entangled with the official army.

This is why for so many years, although Zhang Yan has plundered everywhere, few officials and soldiers will chase him to the end.

But if Zhang Yan did this once, wouldn't Zhang Yang be chasing and killing himself like a yellow spring?

"No, no, no!" Zhang Yan's head shook like a rattle, and she immediately disagreed.

"General Zhang's concerns are also clear, but it is precisely because of the difficulty of this matter that the lord will let me personally come to explain the situation to General Zhang.

The meaning expressed by the lord of my family before I came was very clear, and this matter was only discussed with General Zhang and was not forced.

If General Zhang feels embarrassed, the two of us will turn around and leave to restore the life of my lord. Xu Shu said without any pressure at all, as if he was doing something insignificant when he came to persuade Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan originally thought that Xu Shu would persuade him when he came up, "Wow, wow, wow" said a lot of words and asked him to send troops.

But who would have thought, it turned out that people didn't mean this at all, and it seemed that the other party had a solution if he didn't send troops, which made Zhang Yan a little restless.

After all, if a person originally thinks that he is very valuable, but in the end others tell you that you are actually worthless, this kind of psychological gap may not be something that ordinary people can deal with calmly.

Sure enough, Zhang Yan's face suddenly changed after hearing Xu Shu's words, and a smile inadvertently flashed in Xu Shu's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.

"Xu Junshi ......"

Zhang Yan was about to say something, but at this time, Xu Shu spoke again: "Oh, by the way, General Zhang, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not." ”

"Master Xu, please speak." Hearing Xu Shu's words, Zhang Yan hurriedly said.

Xu Shu nodded and said: "General Zhang, there are no outsiders here, there are still some things that can be said between you and me, in fact, the reason why the lord sent me here this time is that I personally think that there is such a layer of meaning in it to test the general." ”

"Oh? How? Hearing Xu Shu's words, Zhang Yan's interest was immediately aroused.

Seeing the intense curiosity on Zhang Yan's face, Xu Shu smiled in his heart and said, "Originally, we didn't have to come here deliberately, the affairs of Luoyang are all under the control of the lord."

Even if Zhang Yang rushed to Luoyang with a large army, it was just a futile effort, and the lord of my family naturally had a back hand to prepare.

However, although General Zhang had made an agreement with the lord of my family before, no one knows whether he can fulfill the contract.

It is precisely because of the difficulties that it is a rare opportunity to test the integrity of the general, and it is also an opportunity to test the general's ability. General Zhang can taste it carefully, and Hugh is self-mistaken! ”

After listening to Xu Shu's words, Zhang Yan fell into deep thought, indeed, if it is really as Xu Shu said, then the Bohai King will not be able to answer the question he gave himself for the first time, then even if he is under the command of the Bohai King in the future, I am afraid that he will look down on himself.

But if you really obey the instructions of the King of Bohai, then the problem of being retaliated against by Zhang Yang will be in front of you.

The choice between the two phases is really difficult for Zhang Yan, and a trace of entanglement flashes on her face from time to time, obviously in the midst of a fierce struggle in her heart.

Xu Shu was not in a hurry, so he waited in place for Zhang Yan's choice.

As for how Zhang Yan will choose, Xu Shu has full confidence.

Because Zhang Yan was able to take the risk and come to Liu Xie's camp to discuss the surrender in person, it was enough to see Zhang Yan's sincerity.

And all this stems from Zhang Yan's strong needs, after all, the Black Mountain Army sounds like it has 100,000 people, but the real ones who can fight should be less than half, Liu Xie estimated that it is roughly twenty or thirty thousand people, and the rest can only be regarded as a rabble.

Zhang Yan's algorithm counts both combatants and non-combatants, and Liu Xie also suspects that Zhang Yan even counts everyone's family members, so it can reach 100,000.

This is why the Montenegrin army sounds like 100,000, looking quite bluffing, and it stands to reason that it should be easy to attack the city and seize the county.

But in fact, the Montenegrin army can only do looting, plus Zhang Yan has very strict requirements for his subordinates, and most of the robbers are wealthy businessmen in the government, and they are open to ordinary people, which also makes the Montenegrin army lose a huge amount of income.

But the loss is a loss, and the Montenegrin army unexpectedly gained the support of the local people along the Taihang Mountain.

Even so, the operation of the Montenegrin Army is becoming more and more difficult, coupled with the fact that the Yellow Turban Army uprising has been full of flames from the very beginning, and it has been wiped out by the imperial court at this time.

All of this is the dilemma that the Montenegrin Army is facing now, and the only way to solve this dilemma is to find a backer, and it is obvious that Zhang Yan chose Liu Xie.

If what Xu Shu said is right, this time it is really Liu Xie's test for Zhang Yan, then Zhang Yan will not be able to complete Liu Xie's test, which will inevitably be greatly discounted in Liu Xie's heart.

After a fierce inner struggle, Zhang Yan seemed to have made some kind of determination, and suddenly said to Xu Shu: "If I stop Zhang Yang in Shangdang County, if I can't do anything, what kind of help can I provide to the King of Bohai?" ”

Hearing Zhang Yan's words, Xu Shu naturally knew that Zhang Yan was talking about conditions, and now he was deceiving Zhang Yan, and he must not show any cooperation at this time, the tougher he is, the more convincing Zhang Yan will be.

"General Zhang, I have already said before, we have already understood it in private, this time the matter is simply the test of the lord for the general, where is there any time to help?

I can tell you responsibly, there is no help during this period, the reason why I did this is because the lord believes that the general has the ability to complete this task excellently, if the general can't complete it, then what does it prove, I don't think the general knows it in his heart, right?

Of course, if it really comes to that point, after all, the general is doing things for the lord, if the general is really defeated by Zhang Yang and is unable to fight again, the general can take people to the Bohai Sea, and someone will naturally answer at that time. Xu Shu said to Zhang Yan, especially when it came to the end, a trace of contempt flashed in Xu Shu's eyes.

Xu Shu's reaction was naturally in Zhang Yan's eyes, but he was more sure of the authenticity of the test Xu Shu said.

As for the last step that Xu Shu said, Zhang Yan had never considered it in his heart, and the reason why he said that the difficulties were so big was just that he wanted to fight for some benefits from Xu Shu.

But obviously, Xu Shu doesn't eat Zhang Yan's set.

As for the last step Xu Shu said, Zhang Yan never thought it would happen, and even if it did, I was afraid that he would not have the face to go to Bohai in front of him.
