p. 671 Maps and Letters1

It is even more impossible for others to know that this person is the most powerful guard by Jin Jue's side. Except, of course, abalone.

Therefore, Zhang Yan deliberately paid attention to the dynasty, looked up and down for a long time, and did not see anything special about this man who was deliberately pushed out by Jian Yong.

"Hehehe, General Zhang Zhonglang, the villain is just an ordinary person, with a low status, not as good as Mr. Jian and Gongsun Gongzi. My father-in-law is Jin Jue, the second son of Jin in Jingzhao County, I just don't know, have you heard of the name of the villain! Listening to Jian Yong's words, the dynasty knew that Jian Yong wanted the dynasty to take advantage of this sudden but just right snow to announce his identity in public.

"Oh! It's him! Hearing this name, a cold light flashed in Zhang Yan's eyes, and he didn't speak again after saying three words.

Over there, Gongsun Xu was taken aback, in fact, like Zhang Yan, he didn't know much about Jin Jue, but they all knew that the person who has now become the young master of Lu Bu's army, and the person who holds the power of the state for Lu Bu, is Lu Bu's son-in-law, Jin Jue's eldest brother Jin Wei.

"The surname is Jane, what the hell is going on, since he is a person sent by the second son of Jin, when he was in Yijing City, why didn't you introduce him to my father?" As soon as the identity of the dynasty was announced, Gongsun Xu was furious, and in front of everyone, he directly questioned Jian Yong.

This is the reason why Jian Yong has always refused to tell Gongsun the truth when he was in a hurry. Now that Gongsun Chan has already made his own decision, what can Gongsun do if he continues to be a son?

Besides, Jin Jue is not well-known in Youzhou, even if Jian Yong introduces the dynasty to Gongsun Zhan, what can he do?

can't change the situation, but there are branches, this is a situation that Jian Yong and the dynasty don't want to see.

"What are you doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and lead the guests up the mountain, do you want to spend the night in the snow in the mountains!" As soon as Gongsun Xu's questioning voice fell, Zhang Yan commanded loudly.

This is why Jian Yong must see Zhang Yan before taking the opportunity to announce the identity of the dynasty in public.

In the final analysis, this is Zhang Yan's territory, no matter how good your Gongsun Xu is, he is just the son of a warlord in the sunset West Mountain, let alone Gongsun Xu, even if Gongsun Chan saw Zhang Yan in person, he didn't dare to directly question Jian Yong in front of Zhang Yan like this.

This is also because Gongsun is young and vigorous, Zhang Yancai did not blame him.

Gongsun Xu wanted to say something, an old soldier beside him hurriedly stretched out his hand and pulled him when he saw this, Gongsun Xu looked back in anger, but he didn't care about any more words, this veteran is an old soldier who has been fighting with Gongsun Chan for decades, and he also grew up watching Gongsun Xu, and this time he was sent by Gongsun Zhan, just on the order of Gongsun Zhan, let him look at Gongsun Zhan, and don't let Gongsun Xu offend Zhang Yan for no reason.

Everyone went up the mountain, and Zhang Yan's subordinates arranged for Gongsun Xu and Jian Yong's men to rest, but they took Gongsun Xu and his old guard, as well as Jian Yong and the dynasty, and went straight to the place where he usually discussed with his subordinates.

Although Zhang Yan is a bandit, there is no hall for gathering righteousness and sharing spoils at this time.

Everyone sat down, and Zhang Yan ordered his subordinates to immediately arrange a feast, preparing to wash the dust for Gongsun Xu and Jian Yong.

After Zhang Yan finished assigning, at this time, Gongsun Xu couldn't hold back any longer, he stood up, pointed at Jian Yong's nose, and asked again: "The surname is Jian, you should give me an answer now!" ”

"This is natural, Zhang Zhonglang General, Gongsun Gongzi, this time, Jian and this Wang brother came to Hebei together, the main task is to weaken Yuan Shao, secondly, to meet Zhang Zhonglang General you, and finally, to send a letter to his brother-in-law Gongsun Zan for my father-in-law Liu Xuzhou. General Zhang Zhonglang, this is a letter from your father-in-law, after you have read it and discussed it with your subordinates, it will not be too late for us to discuss it. Jian Yong was not angry because of Gongsun Xu's rude attitude, he explained with a smile.

When Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was alive, because the Montenegrin army had become a big tail, and the imperial court and local government were unable to levy it, he sent an envoy to appoint Zhang Yan as the general of the Pingyan Zhonglang, and ordered him to manage the administrative and public security affairs in the mountainous areas north of the Yellow River controlled by the Montenegrin army.

This is only in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, among the rebels who have launched rebellions in various regions, I am afraid that it is the only one.

After saying that, Wang Chao took out an oilcloth bag from his bosom, held it in both hands and handed it to the little minions who were waiting for them in the council hall.

"You ......" As soon as he heard Jian Yong's explanation, Gongsun Xu became even more angry.

The meaning of Jian Yong's words has been clearly expressed that Liu Bei is obviously more optimistic about Zhang Yan, the leader of the Black Mountain Thieves, than his brother-in-law Gongsun Zhan.

It's a pity that this is Zhang Yan's territory after all, no matter how angry Gongsun Xu is, it won't help, under the pull of the old guard, he can only sit down again angrily.

Zhang Yan turned a blind eye to this, took out the oilcloth bag from his subordinates, unfolded it, and took a look at it, and there was a boxy cowhide stacked in addition to an envelope that was not too thick. Intrigued, he passed the faith to a scribe beside him, and he himself immediately unfurled the hide.

As the cowhide was completely unfolded, everyone in the council hall opened their eyes, and the people who were far away naturally couldn't see it really, but they could still roughly see that what was drawn on the cowhide was a map, and those who were close could see it very clearly, this map was the map of the area controlled by their Black Mountain Army and the surrounding counties of Jizhou, Youzhou and Bingzhou.

The vast majority of the leaders of the Montenegrin Army are civilians or deserters from the bottom, and literate people are even rarer, Zhang Yan is naturally no exception, and the scribe beside him is a scholar who was abducted to the mountain by his subordinates, in the troubled times, it is not easy to survive and save his life, so even if Jian Yong saw that this scribe was a son of a family, he did not look down on the other party.

"Mr. Jane, Brother Wang, what do you mean by this?" As soon as Zhang Yan saw the map, his face immediately changed.

This map is naturally from Jin Jue's hand, and there are also maps drawn by Lu Bu after correcting some omissions for him. Although it was not very accurate, Zhang Yan could see that this map was more accurate than the official maps of the Han Dynasty that he had obtained from the county yamen that the Montenegrin army had conquered.

"General Zhang Zhonglang, please don't be impatient, or wait for this gentleman to read this letter in Liu Yuanjun's handwritten letter in public, and it's not too late to explain it later?"
