Originally, Zhang Yan originally had the idea of accepting Zhao'an, but Zhang Yan always wanted to use the people in his hands to ask for more benefits and talk about some conditions. Liu Bei also deliberately delayed, so he kept dragging it out.

Who knows, when Jizhou was completely controlled by Liu Bei, Liu Bei immediately turned his face, and took advantage of the lack of green and yellow to cut off the "co-payment" that was originally promised to Zhang Yan, forcing the Montenegrin army to come down and rob. As a result, Yu Poison knelt like this. And Zhang Yan is Liu Bei's next target.

Just when Liu Bei defeated Yu Poison in Dong County, news finally came from Yecheng that Zhang Yan went down the mountain and led 100,000 elite soldiers to besiege Wei County.

"Zhang Yan, he really hit the ......" The news of the siege of Yecheng by the Montenegrin army came, and after Liu Bei read the letter, he casually handed the letter to Xi Zhicai beside him, and said softly.

Xi Zhicai took the letter, read it casually, handed over the letter again, and said: "It's not up to him, the Montenegrin Army is known as one million, how can there be hundreds of thousands of people, if you don't come down to rob, can't you drink the northwest wind on the mountain and wait for death!?" ”

In fact, Zhang Yan didn't want to besiege Yecheng, Montenegro was in the territory of Zhao State, Zhao State only had five counties, and the population did not know if there were more than 100,000 people.

In fact, Zhao Guo is famous for being a dancing girl and a demon girl, not a poor place, who will sell his daughter without it.

Zhao State is close to Wei County, Yecheng is the best place in Jizhou, and Liu Bei deliberately hoarded a large amount of grain and grass in Yecheng.

In fact, it cannot be said that the Montenegrin army was fooled, but they had no other choice. Even if Zhang Yan could see that this was a trap, he would not give up attacking Yecheng.

In the final analysis, the Black Mountain thieves are still a group of bandits, Zhang Yan must take them to grab things, and he must be able to grab things, otherwise, he will be overthrown by other thieves.

…… ……

Under Yecheng, Zhang Yan gritted her teeth and scolded there.

No one thought that Liu Bei would actually hand over the base camp of Yecheng to the trial that was assigned by his whole family once to guard it.

Even Zhang Yan felt that the trial was played by Liu Bei like this once, and it was impossible for him to be truly attached to him, and he had a great possibility of persuading him to demote the trial, not to mention that Zhang Yan still had a trump card in his hand.

The Chang'an Imperial Court, or Li Dao, did not recognize Liu Bei's Jizhou Mu, but only Liu Bei's Qingzhou Mu. So, a man named Hushou was sent to be the pastor of Jizhou.

And Hushou also knew that Liu Bei would not see that he was sent by the imperial court, so he gave Jizhou Mu to him, so he took refuge in Zhang Yan. After all, Zhang Yan is also a Zhonglang general recognized by the imperial court, and he can be regarded as an official of the imperial court.

Originally, Zhang Yan felt that the trial match and Liu Bei had a broken family enmity, and he had Jizhou Mu Hushou sent by the imperial court in hand, so he surrendered the trial and easily won Yecheng, what was the difficulty.

Who knows, this trial is simply stinky and hard, and he doesn't care about Zhang Yan at all.

Forget it, but the trial is still very cunning, he first deceived Zhang Yan, saying that he would meet the Jizhou Mu sent by the imperial court first.

When Hu Shou came out to meet, the judge directly ordered someone to use a strong crossbow to shoot Hu Shou, who Zhang Yan sent out to persuade him to surrender, to death.

At this time, Zhang Yan didn't even have the righteous title of entering Jizhou.

When Liu Bei led his troops back to Yecheng, Zhang Yan had no choice but to send a part of his men and horses to continue to besiege Yecheng, and he took the main force to meet Liu Bei's army.

In Yecheng, a general with a helmet and armor occupied the side of the trial, and asked: "When can our army attack?" ”

The judge glanced at Yu Ban and said: "Don't worry, Captain Yu, the lord made it clear before he set off, when he and the Montenegrin thieves are inseparable, after the attack, the Montenegrin army will be broken!" ”

After a pause, the judge said: "Don't worry, when the time comes, it will naturally be indispensable for Captain Yu to make contributions." ”

Zhang Yan didn't know that Liu Bei was willing to boldly hand over Yecheng to the trial, although he believed in the trial, and at the same time made other preparations. As long as the land is still there and the land military service system has not collapsed, there is no need to worry that these government soldiers will be co-opted by others, and they will put their henchmen in Yecheng, and they are also a backhand.

At this time, although the big battle had not yet begun, the small battle was continuous, and both sides sent small groups of cavalry to carry out bloody battles, trying to control the battlefield until dark.

In this small group of cavalry fighting, Liu Bei's side had the absolute upper hand, because he selected a group of surrendered Huns to be skilled in bow horses and let them strangle the Black Mountain thieves. As long as there is a head in the account, Liu Bei will give them the status of a government soldier, give them a hundred acres of land, and at the same time recognize their Han identity, at this time the Han identity is still quite valuable.

This move kills two birds with one stone, which not only consumes the strength of the Huns, but also can integrate some of the Huns and kill many Black Mountain thieves. It is estimated that after a few more battles, even if this part of the Huns is completely solved by Liu Bei, it can be described as killing three birds with one stone.

The next day, the two armies faced each other, and Zhang Yan and Liu Bei each led their men and horses to fight.

Liu Bei led the Chinese army and ordered thousands of elite horsemen to line up on both wings.

On the opposite side, there were bursts of golden drums, and the ground was full of dull horses' hooves, and Zhang Yan took out his old money to press the bottom of the box. Zhang Yan had more than 10,000 elite soldiers and thousands of horses, and this time they all took them out to fight Liu Bei to the death.

"Liu! Black! Morality! ”

Looking at Liu Bei's banner from afar, Zhang Yan shouted angrily, rode on the horse, and couldn't help but scold: "I will take your life today!" ”

Liu Bei, who didn't know that Zhang Yan was already angry, was in the middle of the Chinese army at this time, holding a horsewhip and slowly asked: "How to break the thief today, do the generals have a good plan?" ”

On the side, Lu Yi said: "Rest assured, a certain person is willing to lead the headquarters to board 800 dead soldiers first, and strengthen the crossbow of 1,000 people, and he will definitely be able to break the Black Mountain thieves." ”

After thinking about it, Lu Yi was unwilling to send away the strong soldiers he had personally recruited and trained. In the end, he reluctantly reached an agreement with Liu Bei, as a mercenary under Liu Bei, he usually did not want Liu Bei's supplies, and he was paid according to his merits in each battle, and he did not have to hand over the captures he obtained. This time I made a lot of contributions to the Black Mountain thieves, and I also robbed a lot of things, this time I saw Zhang Yan, and Lu Yi looked like he saw moving gold.

At this moment, someone on the side snorted coldly, but it was Lu Budao: "There are more than 10,000 rabble, why use 800 dead soldiers and 1,000 strong crossbows." Although Bu is not talented, he is willing to lead his subordinates to Cheng Lian, Wei Yue and dozens of horsemen to accompany him, and he will definitely defeat the thief army. ”

Lu Yi was furious when he heard this, and was about to speak, but Liu Bei stopped him and said: "There is no joke in the army, and Wen Hou should not be taken lightly!" ”
