As a member of the Zhang clan, Zhang Liang knows the roots of Zhang Mad as a nephew. In his impression, in addition to his outstanding swordsmanship and worthy of the "crown of a county", this nephew seems to be lackluster. Unexpectedly, this time, not only Zhang Liang himself, but even Zhang Jiao and Zhang Bao looked away at that kid.

-- What shit luck to be able to make a "10,000-strong enemy" a subordinate!

Zhang Liang's thoughts, arrogance naturally couldn't be detected. Moreover, the current arrogance does not have time to ponder what other people's impression of themselves is. Because, the Tianping Army is in the midst of a fierce battle.

With Yu Forbidden Department as the forward, Dian Wei's "Heavy Armor Team" was the second team to prepare for the attack. The whole army of the Tianping Army, like a long arrow, pointed directly at the rear of the Jizhou Crusade Army.

However, before colliding with Dong Zhuo, the main general of the crusade army, the Tianping Army must first pass through a checkpoint.

This level is composed of 1,500 enemy troops, and an extremely brave commander.

Hebei has many heroes since ancient times. Among the "28 generals of Yuntai" under Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, many were born in Hebei. Among the new generation of heroes in Hebei who have emerged in today's Yellow Turban Uprising, the most famous one is:

- Yan Liang, Yan Zimei!

Yan Liang rode on a tall horse, and even in the distance, he was so windy that he could be recognized by Insolence at a glance.

To be exact, he recognized the knife in Yan Liang's hand.

In the impression left by the original "arrogant" body, he had met with Yan Liang once and competed in martial arts once. And Yan Liang's unique knife also left an extremely deep resentment on the "arrogance" who had disappeared.

The knife was made of one hundred and twenty refined steel, with a handle length of one foot and five inches, a blade length of four feet and eight inches, and a slender blade shaped like the feathers of a wild goose, weighing twenty-one pounds. Yan Liang cherished this knife very much, and named it Qiushui.

A person's body shape and appearance can be mistaken, and the general flag with the word "Yan" can also not refer to others, but this "Qiushui Yanling Knife" with cold light flowing is arrogant no matter what, and it will not be wrong. Even if he was one hundred and twenty steps away, his arrogant neck still felt a burst of coldness, as if the blade of the "Autumn Water Goose Feather Knife" still stayed on his throat!

Of course, now that the two armies are at war, Zhang Qiang, as the commander of the first army, will not fight Yan Liang alone. However, from the past memories preserved by the owner of the body, the arrogance of Yan Liang's level of force was revealed, and he still gave special advice to Yu Ban and Dian Wei in front of him:

"Watch out for this person! Yan Liang's martial arts are mainly fast, and vigorous, and he cares about it! ”

Dian Wei put the second piece of armor on himself, and at the same time took a piece of jerky from the hands of his entourage, and was busy replenishing his strength, but he simply promised to the arrogance, and blessed the third piece of iron armor. However, Yu Ban, after agreeing, thought about it again, and then solemnly said to Zhang Qiang:

"Don't worry, lord! I have overcome him with an army, but what can this man do? ”

It's also amazing to say. Generals who are known for their strength are often restrained by generals who are known for their speed or skill in the same level in heads-up. But if you compare the ability to break through the military formation, the generals who are good at speed or skill are far inferior to the generals who are known for their great strength.

For example, Dian Wei and Zang Ba, if the two go head-to-head, the result is that Dian Wei cannot win, and Zang Ba will not be defeated. But in terms of the ability to break through the enemy formation, there must be two Zang Ba to be able to compare with Dian Wei. Similarly, there is not much difference between the strength of Zhou Cang, Yu Ban, and Han Dang, and Zhou Cang is more defeated than won in heads-up, but his ability to break the formation is far above Ban and Han Dang.

Therefore, since Yan Liang is good at speed, Yu Ban will not be too jealous of his ability to break the formation. Everyone is "a thousand people broken", Yu Ban is confident that he has faced Yan Liang, and with the support of his skilled good brothers in the military formation, he will definitely be able to successfully defeat the other party.

You must know that when Yu Ban was not "ignited" by insolence a few months ago, he once used the strength of "100 people to behead", with the help of several brothers in the army who cooperated tacitly, to hit Hou Cheng, who belonged to the level of "1000 people broken"!

Of course, Hou Cheng is at the bottom of the "Thousand People Broken". However, in any case, it is also an indisputable fact that Yu Ban used the power of the military array to succeed in the challenge of leapfrogging.

A drum sounded on the opposite side, Yan Liang rode alone, came to sixty steps in front of the Tianping Army, raised his voice, and shouted:

"Come to the general name, can anyone dare to fight with a certain family?!"

The generals of the Tianping Army were a little strange when they heard Yan Liang's challenge. Now this year, not the Spring and Autumn period of 600 years ago, it is no longer popular to fight the generals of both sides. Could it be that the warriors of Hebei still retain the ancient customs and customs, and before the war, they have to play heads-up once?

- However, looking at the white-armored military general in front of him, he was born with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, a dignified appearance, three wisps of green beard under his chin, and a scholarly appearance, not like a brainless man?

Not to mention the doubts of the generals of the Tianping Army in addition to arrogance, let's talk about Yan Liang.

Yan Lianghui made such a move, which is also a last resort to try in the current situation.

Yan Liang, who was born in Fuliu Yan's family, is said to be originally from Qingzhou, and is the descendant of Yan Hui, the chief disciple of the Confucian sage. When Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, Yan Liang's great-great-great-grandfather took refuge in Hebei, leaving behind the Yan branch to which he belonged.

Since they are the descendants of Yasheng back then, the Yan family has naturally always been an heirloom through farming. By chance, there was such a martial arts wizard as Yan Liang, and he was not very respected in the family. Therefore, Yan Liang's force is amazing, but it is quite suppressed in the Yan clan. Moreover, the Yan family pursues Confucian scriptures and righteousness, and there are not a few books on the art of war in the collection of books at home. Judging from Yan Liang's military education alone, he is not a qualified commander at present.

However, after the Yellow Turban Uprising, the Fuliu Yan clan, who suddenly encountered the baptism of war, suddenly found that there was still such a fierce man as Yan Liang in the clan. In the face of the turbulent situation, for the sake of the survival of the family, the Yan family decided to vigorously support the rise of Yan Liang.

With the support of the family, coupled with Yan Liang's military force, the number of Yan Liang's subordinates grew rapidly, and his reputation was also spread far and wide in the troubled times, and he soon became one of the few fierce generals in Hebei. Even the contemporary great Confucian Lu Zhi heard about the deeds of this descendant of Yan Hui, and specially wrote a letter in person to recruit Yan Liang to help in the war.

Even if the former commander Lu Zhi resigned, Dong Zhuo, who succeeded him, also attached great importance to Yan Liang's bravery. At this moment, Yan Liang accepted the order of the main general Dong Zhuo and came to snipe [or eliminate] the small force of the Yellow Turban Army. Yan Liang didn't care at first. When he got close to the enemy, he immediately gasped!

Although Yan Liang is not strong in managing military affairs, after all, he is familiar with the head of the Northern Army, which can be called the elite of the Han Army. The Yellow Turban Army in front of him has distinct armor, a strict team, and the soldiers are all in order to move forward and retreat. This is like a people-changing army with hungry poor people as the main force, obviously an elite comparable to the northern army!

You must know that not long ago, the Tianping Army broke Yuan Shu's army on the south bank of the Yellow River, and although the beheadings were not too much, the weapons and armor that could be captured were extremely rich. The Tianping Army, which was originally quite good in terms of armor and equipment, was enough to arm the 2,000-strong team up and down to the teeth after the generous gift of Yuan Shu, the captain of the transportation brigade.

Subconsciously glanced back at his own queue, Yan Liang's heart was almost annoyed. The formations and equipment of the two sides clearly reflect the gap in combat power. Even if Yan Liang thought with his toes, he knew that his 1,500 people were definitely not the enemy's opponents.

In this situation, Yan Liang could only stand up and try to use his own force to defeat the enemy's morale and boost his own fighting spirit!

――But will the enemy take the bait?

Yan Liang heard that because the Yellow Turban Army rose too fast, the little handsome below was a typical mixed bag. Now, one can only hope that the enemy on the opposite side, there is a reckless and aggressive leader, who dares to come out and fight himself.

So, how will the arrogance decide?

There was no need to think about it at all, Zhang Arrogant waved his hand and ordered:

"Ignore him, assault!"

Yu Ban, who received the order, pointed the spear in his hand forward without hesitation, and shouted loudly:

"Forward!"

At the sound of an order, the forward of the Tianping Army, which was divided into two divisions on the left and right in a row of ten people, lined up neatly towards the enemy, took a firm step. Nearly two hundred people stepped on the same step point, lined up in a strict formation, and approached Yan Liang. This kind of momentum shocked the powerful private soldiers behind Yan Liang!

When fighting a war, it has always been a group of private soldiers, and it is not that they have never seen such a tight formation. However, in their impression, only the non-commissioned soldiers of the Northern Army, who had recruited the entire Han elite to join, had such a level of formation.

As a group of soldiers who knew the strength of the Northern Army's military formation and did not understand the regular battle formation, they were shocked more than those who did not know anything about the art of war.

What's more, in this battle, even in terms of the number of people involved in the battle on both sides, the private soldiers did not have any advantage.

In order to rush to the battlefield of Guangzong in time, Zhang Madness put the slower baggage soldiers in the rear, and only led more than 1,000 soldiers to advance wildly. It stands to reason that Yan Liang has 1,500 men under his command, and he has a slight advantage in terms of troops.

However, this 1,500 men is only a superficial number of troops. If the vacancy of 200 people is removed, and then the 600 people and baggage soldiers are removed, the real combatable personnel under Yan Liang are only about 700.

This is also the old tradition of the leader of the army. No matter what era it is, it is normal for generals to eat some vacancies to ensure their own income. And the passing of heavy soldiers as soldiers is also a normal phenomenon in the army.

ps: There is no clear record of Yan Liang's life experience. The statement in this article about the descendants of Yan Hui is the words of a novelist and is purely apocryphal. It is hereby clarified.
