As a result of these reasons, Zhang Yan is more inclined to merge states, and the strength shown by merging states, as long as he can get Lu Bu's support, the Montenegrin army will have a way out in this troubled world.

Although the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the Montenegrin Army is not strong, the victory lies in the large number of people, and there are dangers to defend, even in the face of the siege of the army in Jizhou, they are not afraid at all, and the Montenegrin Army is also Zhang Yan's hole card.

Guo Tai, who stayed in the Montenegrin army, was also very nourished, and the news of the victory of the state army on the battlefield in Youzhou, he also learned that compared with Zhang Yan's hole cards, the state behind him was a stronger existence, and in the past few days, he could clearly feel that the eyes of the soldiers of the Montenegrin army looking at him were a little different.

"General Guo, how are you doing in the Montenegrin army?" Zhang Yan asked with a smile.

Guo Tai respectfully hugged his fists and said: "It's okay, it's just that the food is a little worse than the Bingzhou Army." ”

"Hehe, the strength of the state is strong, how can the Montenegrin army compare." Zhang Yan said on his lips, but in his heart he didn't think much of Mrs. Guo's words, he was also a soldier, what the food of the Jizhou army was like, he was clear, he didn't believe that the food in Jizhou could be good, but it was not easy to debunk it in front of Mrs. Guo.

"The general is coming down, I don't know what's going on?"

Zhang Yan said: "General Guo's time in the Montenegrin Army is not short, let's leave for Bingzhou tomorrow, and General Ben will accompany him." ”

Mrs. Guo was overjoyed, "General Zhang was able to go to Bingzhou, and he can be regarded as completing the explanation of the Marquis of Jin." In fact, Mrs. Guo had no hope that Zhang Yan would go to Bingzhou, but she didn't expect Zhang Yan to take the initiative to bring up this matter.

"After arriving in Bingzhou, I hope that General Guo can read for the sake of the Yellow Turban Army in the past, and say a lot of good words for the Montenegrin Army." Zhang Yan slowed down his tone and said, there is a way that people have to bow their heads under the eaves, in the Montenegrin army, Zhang Yan is the same, but when he arrives in the state, it is nothing.

Mrs. Guo clenched her fists and said, "General Zhang, don't worry." ”

The news that Zhang Yan and his party went to Bingzhou is very secret, there are only more than ten guards following Zhang Yan, with a strong enemy like Yuan Shao, the Montenegrin Army has to act carefully, otherwise the Jizhou Army will know, the Montenegrin Army will be a little dangerous, Yuan Shao has always regarded the Montenegrin Army as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh.

With the cover of Mrs. Guo's identity, the group successfully entered Huguan, looking at the cement road that she had never seen before, Zhang Yan looked a little curious, especially when she saw the carriage galloping on the road without looking bumpy, which surprised Zhang Yan.

Suddenly, Zhang Yan's heart was a warning, and Bingzhou has this kind of road, once there is a war, the transportation speed of the baggage will be very fast, but I don't know how many such roads there are in Bingzhou, if it is all this kind of road, how terrible it will be.

Seeing Zhang Yan staring at the road in a daze, Mrs. Guo stepped forward with a complacent expression and said: "General Zhang, this kind of road was ordered to be built by the Marquis of Jin, named Cement Road. ”

Zhang Yan sighed: "The ability of the Marquis of Jin is admired, admired." ”

"I just don't know how many roads like there are in the state?" Zhang Yan said curiously.

Guo Taidao: "This road is from Huguan to Jinyang, before going down, there is only one in Bingzhou." "This matter is not a secret in Bingzhou, and Mrs. Guo did not hide it.

The role of the cement road, but anyone with a little vision can see its effect, the carriage on it is not only smooth, but also fast, the speed of the army is also much faster, once the Huguan has the enemy attack, Jinyang's cavalry can arrive in less than a day, and the speed of grain and grass transportation will also be accelerated.

When he was in Huguan, Zhang Yan didn't feel anything, and after entering Jinyang City, Zhang Yan was surprised again, the straight cement road in the city, the neat houses on both sides of the road, the streets were full of people, bustling, like a prosperous scene, Zhang Yan was sure that among the other princes, it was definitely not such a scene.

As the commander of the Montenegrin Army, Zhang Yan's favorite thing to observe is the ordinary people, when the Yellow Turban Uprising swept through most of the Han Dynasty, it was the power of ordinary people, Zhang Yan, who was born in poverty, of course, cared more about the people at the bottom.

What made Zhang Yan relieved and a little disappointed was that he saw from the looks of the people in the past that there was no panic, some were just satisfied, why the Montenegrin Army was able to grow, not because of the Montenegrin Army itself, but because of the Jizhou where they were entrenched, there were many people who could not survive, and it was they who supported the development of the Montenegrin Army, not to mention the strength of the Merge State Army, Zhang Yan was sure that if the Montenegrin Army came to a place like Jinyang, it would be difficult to have a foothold.

The place where the notice was posted in the city was now crowded with people and talking, and at the front was a literate man reading the notice aloud.

"The state chaplain hated things that endangered the people...... Now the formation of the people's picket organization, each street can elect a respected people to serve as pickets, responsible for reporting illegal things nearby, but where there are bullying the people, bullying and dominating the market and other evil acts, can be directly reported to the Jinyang County Ya, if the county government is dissatisfied with the disposal, you can sue the state pastoral government. ”

"Such a notice is tantamount to letting the people supervise the officials." Zhang Yan was secretly shocked in his heart, if this is the case, who dares to make trouble in Bingzhou, I am afraid that the first one will be arrested by the county government.

Seeing Zhang Yan's questioning gaze, Mrs. Guo shook her head, "This matter has never been done in Bingzhou before." ”

Compared with the prosperity in the city, the state pastoral mansion looks solemn and at the same time is a little simple, which is also the reason why Lu Bu has basically not repaired the state pastoral mansion after taking charge of the state, and the rapidly developing state needs too much money, and Lu Bu does not want to waste money on meaningless construction.

Before seeing Lu Bu, Zhang Yan already had a deep awe of Lu Bu, such a state herd, looking at the princes of the world, who can do it, this may also be one of the reasons for the strong combat power of the state army.

The news of Zhang Yan's trip to Bingzhou was secret, so naturally he would not go to the state pastor's mansion to meet Lu Bu openly, but quietly met with Lu Bu under the recommendation of Mrs. Guo.

In the room, there were only three people: Lu Bu, Jia Xu, and Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan was able to go to Bingzhou in person, Lu Bu was also overjoyed, Zhang Yan's role was very great, this is a person who can constantly cause trouble for Yuan Shao, if he can be drawn into the camp of Bingzhou, he can also have a strong boost when he attacks Jizhou in the future.

"Black Mountain Army Zhang Yan, meet the Marquis of Jin!" Zhang Yan hugged his fists.

Lu Bu said with a smile: "General Zhang came from afar, and he worked hard. ”

Jia Xu on the side looked at the commander of the Montenegrin Army, who was famous in the world, and seemed to want to see something from his words and deeds.
