After having stirrups, the cavalry under Zhang Yan made rapid progress, and Zhang Yan attached great importance to these cavalry, and the food was also the best in the Montenegrin army.

When Yuan Tan led an army of 10,000 to appear in Handan and Yiyang, Zhang Yan had already received the news, and he also knew what kind of goods the Montenegrin army was going to the two places, so he just ordered it to plunder the surrounding villages, and he did not fight with the Jizhou army when he saw it, in order to keep the Jizhou army busy coping.

On the day he arrived in Handan, Yuan Tan divided his troops into three divisions, attacking the rebellious Montenegrin army, followed by Yuan Tan are the elite of the Jizhou army, how can it be comparable to the Montenegrin army, the army is like a bamboo, the Montenegrin army is beating the head of the rat.

Zhang Yan is planning how to completely leave this Jizhou army in Zhao County, the news of Yuan Shao's defeat in Dangyin City has spread at this time, as long as Yuan Tan's army is defeated, the Jizhou army will not be able to conquer the Montenegrin army, and the Montenegrin army can take advantage of the situation to take advantage of the situation, and take Zhao County, Zhongshan, and Changshan as their own in one fell swoop.

Although he chose Lu Bu, Zhang Yan also wanted to be more valuable, and after having enough strength in his hands, he could get more say for the Montenegrin Army in Bingzhou, the Montenegrin Army has 100,000 people, it is impossible for everyone to lay down their arms and become civilians, there are many elite people in the Montenegrin Army, and there are many people who want to have some achievements.

Faced with the attack of Yuan Tan's army, the Montenegrin army fled in the direction of Zhongqiu, in order to attract Yuan Tan from Handan to the vicinity of Zhongqiu, and then exterminate Yuan Tan in one fell swoop.

At the same time, Zhang Yan secretly ordered Yang Feng, Sun Qing, and Wang Dang to lead the elite to Fengshan, which was not far from Zhongqiu.

Zhao County has Yuan Tan's army to clear out, the situation in the other two places is not very good, in the face of the Montenegrin army, the defenders of each city are also struggling to resist, the Montenegrin army that lacks siege means can only return in vain in the face of the strong city, sometimes thousands of defenders even dare to go out of the city to fight with thousands of Montenegrin army, but the victory is often the Jizhou army.

Most of the Montenegrin army is composed of ordinary people, and those who plunder the counties are also low-level soldiers, such an army may be okay to fight a good battle, once the army is blocked, the first thing to think of is to retreat, and the good habits of the Yellow Turban Army have been completely inherited by them, unless it is the elite of the Montenegrin army.

"Yuan Tan led a large army, is pursuing the Montenegrin army, will reach Zhongqiu in a few days, if Yuan Tan can be defeated in one fell swoop, then the Jizhou army is unable to attack the Montenegrin army." Zhang Yan's expression was full of excitement, over the years, the Montenegrin Army has been active in the mountains, not that Zhang Yan does not want to own the city, not only the defenders in various places are stubbornly defending, but more importantly, the strong military strength of the Jizhou Army.

"General, although the Jizhou army has 10,000 people, it has such a sharp weapon as a bed crossbow." Yang Feng reminded.

"What about bed crossbows, there are hundreds of bed crossbows in the Jizhou army attacking Dangyin City, which are still broken by the Bingzhou army, according to the news from the scouts, there are only dozens of bed crossbows in the Jizhou army." Zhang Yan said: "What happened to General Yang secretly ordering people to take refuge in Jizhou? ”

Yang Feng secretly took refuge in Jizhou after Zhang Yan and others discussed, even if Yang Feng was an ambitious person, the identity of the Montenegrin army could not be changed, not to mention that after occupying the three places, Zhang Yan would announce the matter of surrendering to the state as soon as possible, and if the Jizhou army attacked the three places, it would be to invade the city of the Marquis of Jin, and after capturing Changshan Zhongshan, the state army would be able to enter Jizhou from Daijun.

"The general can rest assured, the humble post has secretly ordered someone to go to Yecheng, and there will be news in the near future." Yang Fengdao.

"So far, the general will not hide from you, and the state army sent the Montenegrin army to the Montenegrin army Guo Tai you still remember, the general had secretly gone to the state with Guo Tai, met with the Marquis of Jin, in the state, the general saw the scene depicted by the great sage and good teacher, although the people's life is not rich, but it is stable, after talking with the Marquis of Jin, the general also decided to take refuge in the state, the Marquis of Jin had promised, if the Montenegrin army took refuge in the state, it will be with the people of the state, after the Yellow Turban Army under Guo Tai in Baibo Valley took refuge in the state, It was also like the people of the annexed state, who got a share of the land. Zhang Yan said slowly.

Although there was a secret speculation, now seeing Zhang Yan admit it in person, Yang Feng's heart is also suddenly tightened, he has heard too much about the deeds of the state army over the years, but he doesn't want to give up the power in his current hands, although the Montenegrin army can only hide in the mountains, Yang Feng has 30,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, he doesn't understand Zhang Yan's thoughts, is this kind of life not as good as the state.

"Not to mention the annexation of states, the most important thing at present is to break the 10,000 army led by Yuan Tan." Zhang Yan said.

"General, is there anything wrong with taking refuge in the state?" Yang Feng couldn't help but ask, even if the Jizhou army was defeated in the confrontation, the strength was still there, and at this time, taking refuge in the state was tantamount to forcing the Montenegrin army to a dead end.

Zhang Yan said with a smile: "General Yang is too worried, the Jizhou army is newly defeated, if the Marquis of Jin waves his troops to Jizhou, what do you think the Jizhou army can do?" Yuan Shaokong is virtuous, but the officials under his rule are ordinary, otherwise why would the number of Montenegrin troops be more and more. ”

Yang Feng said that in the Montenegrin Army, one thing that cannot be changed is Zhang Yan's attitude towards the people, for ordinary people, Zhang Yan cares too much, and sometimes Yang Feng is also extremely puzzled.

"Obey the general's orders." The generals in the field glanced at each other and said in unison.

When Xu You entered the Chaoge City, he felt a solemn atmosphere, the soldiers patrolling the streets came and went, and from time to time he could see the soldiers in the army walking quickly to other places, and the Bingzhou army outside the city was practicing, he knew that this was the Marquis of Jin was going to make a move on Jizhou, although he was not very optimistic about Lu Bu's attack on Jizhou, but Xu You also understood that Lu Bu could not guess with common sense.

"I've seen the Marquis of Jin!" After Xu You entered the big tent, he behaved very respectfully.

"Ben Hou has heard the name of Lord Xu for a long time, when he was in Youzhou, Lord Xu was trying to rely on Yin Xiong to recapture Shanggu, but fortunately, Chen Taishou found out in time." Lu Bu said with a smile, he was also very clear about Xu You's intentions, Jizhou was not sure of his attitude, and Jizhou was unstable at this time, if Lu Bu was bent on attacking Jizhou, Jizhou would be dangerous.

Of course, Lu Bu also had the intention of invading Jizhou.

More than 30,000 troops were stationed in Chaoge, not only to deter Jizhou, but also to get more benefits from Jizhou.

My family's daughter has come to report, and she has been staying in the hospital for the past few days, so please be considerate!
