Thinking of this, Zhang Yan opened his mouth and asked: "I see, General Wang, then, which of his generals does your son plan to send to help me, and also, you just mentioned a person who works under Liu Xuzhou, who is my old acquaintance?" ”

"General Zhang Zhonglang, the general sent by my son-in-law to assist you is a young general. The surname is Wei Mingyan, and the characters are long, he is naturally not famous in the north, but he is very famous in the south. Just recently, he raided and killed two of Sun Ce's generals, Sun He and Ling Cao, one of whom was shot directly in front of Sun Ce.

For various reasons, my son-in-law has already planned to return Runan County to Liu Xuzhou again, so General Wei has time to come to Montenegro to help you.

Although General Wei is not very old, he is not only good at field warfare, but also good at siege warfare, if Zhang Zhonglang really trusts my son-in-law, you might as well give him the task of attacking Hanoi County and Zhiyewang County. As for your old acquaintance, it is Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong, a native of Zhending County, Changshan County, who was not reused under Gongsun Zhan and was the same township as you. Only then did the dynasty tell Zhang Yan the part of the Montenegrin strategy formulated by Jin Jue.

"Oh, it turned out to be Zilong! I heard that after Zilong left Gongsun Zhan, he defected to Liu Yuanjun, it seems that the rumors are true! When Zhang Yan heard this, she was not surprised, and sighed: "However, too." Gongsun Zhan has no eyes, and he doesn't need to let go of a few capable generals under him, and it is not for nothing that he ends up like this. ”

Gongsun Zhan is proud of his bravery, the people he uses are flattering and incompetent, although Zhang Yan has fallen into the grass during the period of Emperor Ling, but he has also heard of the name of Zhao Yun, a small fellow countryman.

After listening to Wang Chao's words, not only Zhang Yan, but even his two deputies, Sun Qing and Wang Dang, were a little moved.

If conditions permit, who wants to continue to be a grass coward and continue to be a bandit?

What's more, once they really succeed in taking Hanoi County, Zhang Yan will be the Taishou of Hanoi County, and the two of them can also choose two big counties in Hanoi County to get over the addiction of the county order.

However, there were still some people present who continued to speak against each other.

Zhang Baiqi was the first to stand up and objected: "Chief, Liu Xuzhou and that Jin Gongzi are offering you advice and people, but don't they want any benefit from doing this?" Anyway, I don't believe these two too much. ”

Zhang Baiqi's words are not rough, and they can't afford to be early, if there is no point, why did Liu Bei and Jin Jue spend so much effort to help Zhang Yan?

"Hahaha! Zhang Baiqi, what you said is not wrong. My son-in-law and Liu Xuzhou have made so much effort to help General Zhang Zhonglang, so they naturally have something to ask for.

First of all, for Liu Xuzhou, saving his brother-in-law Gongsun Zan is the greatest benefit to him.

If Zhang Zhonglang can follow the advice of my son-in-law, even if he does not send troops to rescue Gongsun Zai, once the task of attacking Hanoi County and forcibly relocating the people of the four counties to the mountains is successfully completed, please think, at that time, will Yuan Shao still have the heart to continue to besiege Yijing City?

Therefore, if you don't directly send troops to rescue Gongsun Zhan, you are saving him.

Secondly, once General Zhang Zhonglang and you lead the troops to Hanoi County, the vacancy left after you leave must be occupied by Zhao Yun and Wei Yan's troops.

The two of them will stay here and continue to harass Jizhou, and do their best to continue to contain and weaken Yuan Shao's strength.

My son-in-law and Liu Xuzhou both have great ambitions to dominate the world and mix things up, so it is very necessary to continue to weaken Yuan Shao, the great enemy.

Of course, Mr. Jian and I can make a prior agreement with Zhang Zhonglang now, after the two generals Zhao Yun and Wei Yan arrive in Montenegro, the total number of soldiers that they will eventually recruit from the people of Hebei will not exceed 10,000, and Zhang Zhonglang will be able to send his subordinates to supervise the two of them at that time.

In the end, if none of the leaders under General Zhang Zhonglang had the courage to send troops to attack Liaoxi County, once the time was ripe, General Zhao Yun would take the initiative to send troops to take Liaoxi County for Liu Xuzhou.

Zhang Baiqi, Zhang Zhonglang, and two, Wang's answer, are you satisfied? ”

Satisfied?

Naturally, he was satisfied, but after listening to these words, and thinking of Jin Jue's evaluation of himself that he had heard from the dynasty before, for a while, Zhang Yan's ambition also grew, and he asked: "General Wang, didn't your son-in-law think about letting Zhang and the two generals join forces next year to defeat Yuan Shao together?" ”

"General Zhang Zhonglang, of course my son-in-law also thought so, but the reality does not allow it!

First of all, Zhao Yun and Wei Yan arrived in Montenegro, even if their ability is great, they don't have the elite soldiers they have trained themselves, plus the time they have served as a single general is short, and their experience is still lacking, let alone next year, even if it is two or three years later, it is impossible.

You are a veteran soldier and you should know how difficult it is to train an elite soldier.

Secondly, Yuan Shao still has a lot of capable ministers and generals, for example, in terms of military divisions, Fu Zhu, Tian Feng, Xu You, and judges, and in terms of military generals, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, and Zhang Jaw.

As for the two generals, Zhao Yun and Wei Yan, they have no resourceful men under their command who can match them, even if you add the generals and elite soldiers under your command under Zhang Zhonglang, it will be difficult to defeat Yuan Shao's army in a short time.

In the end, the primary enemy of my son-in-law and Liu Xuzhou has always been not Yuan Shao, but Cao Thief, who controlled the emperor of the Han Dynasty. When Wang Chao heard this, he shook his head with a wry smile and explained.

When Zhang Yan heard this, his face was a little ugly, the difficulties mentioned in the dynasty's words were not only what Wei Yan and Zhao Yun were about to face, but also Zhang Yan himself had already existed.

Since he is a bandit, except for being able to kidnap some Confucian scholars who have studied to serve him, it is impossible for any child of the family to take the initiative to join his command to serve him.

Like the Mr. Zhang next to Zhang Yan, he must also have his own special reasons.

"Hahaha!" Seeing Zhang Yan's face, Wang Chao suddenly laughed and said, "General Zhang Zhonglang, you don't have to be so frustrated and annoyed. Yuan Shao is a person who is wide on the outside and jealous on the inside, and although he and Tian Feng are extremely intelligent, these two people are too upright. Such a character, for a long time, will cause Yuan Shao and his money-greedy and lustful cronies to resent.

What's more, under Yuan Shao, there are also many talents who have not met or are still not reused. Since they are unwilling to take the initiative to serve under your command, why don't Zhang Zhonglang take the initiative to attack and 'invite' talents to his command? ”
