Koji Yi is a battle-hardened veteran in the end, and he is no stranger to Zhang Yan at all, and he can even be called an old opponent. When Emperor Ling was in power, Lu Yi was once recommended by Huangfu Song as a special driver in Jizhou, responsible for exterminating the Black Mountain thieves, and Zhang Yan fought more than a dozen battles large and small, winning and losing each other, so he was no stranger to this big thief. Although Koji Yi also felt a headache about the sudden attack of the Montenegrin army, he had not been as chaotic as Yuan Mai.

At this moment, Koji Yoshishi had ordered the entire army to stop advancing and prepare for battle. And he and Tian Feng set up a tent and were analyzing the military situation, when they saw the anxious prison lord break in.

"General Yuan, don't be anxious, don't be impatient, let's discuss the military situation together and see why the Black Mountain Bandits are here?" Koji Yi calmly asked Yuan Mai to sit down.

"Don't sit, and discuss a fart! I think it must be Zhang Yan and Gongsun Zhan who are in the same breath, and he learned that we were going to attack Daijun, so he took advantage of our unpreparedness and launched a surprise attack on our army with the help of the mountain shape in this place. If you don't rush to help, I'm afraid that Hao Bodao's pioneer battalion is in danger! ”

Yuan Mai was anxious like an ant on a hot pot, where was he in the mood to sit. The enemy is 10,000! Maybe there will be more follow-up troops, if you are wrapped in dumplings, your hard work will be in vain, can you not be in a hurry?

Lu Yi couldn't guess why Zhang Yan came for a while, what did this long-dormant thief want to do? But his experienced experience made him understand that at this time, he must not be alarmed, and only after finding out the enemy's intentions can he make a response, so that he can know himself and the enemy without being defeated in a hundred battles!

"General Xianyong, don't be impatient, the Black Mountain thieves are a rabble, although there are many people, there is nothing to fear. Hao Bodao has trained his troops well, and his combat effectiveness is not comparable to that of thieves, so let's observe it for the time being and then make a decision. How is it? Koji Yi stroked his beard and said calmly.

Yuan Maixin said in his heart, you are clearly a personal vendetta of the communiqué, you think Hao Zhao is my confidant, so you said this, "General Koji, just say it directly, do you send rescuers or not?" Although Hao Bodao's subordinates are elite, there are many Black Mountain thieves, and the battle situation is unpredictable. In case you are surrounded by the other party, the consequences are unimaginable! ”

"I'll send a lieutenant with five hundred men to help, okay?" Seeing that Yuan Mai was a little angry, Lu Yi didn't want to offend him too much, so he discussed.

"Five hundred? Are you going hunting? Forget it, I'll let Zhao take my personal guard battalion to support Hao Zhao! Yuan Mai felt more and more that Lu Yi was communiquing his personal vendetta, and sending 500 people to rescue him was not enough to be ashamed. But Koji Yi was the main general, he didn't speak, and the troops behind him couldn't move themselves, so he had to brush his sleeves and leave.

Leaving Koyi's tent, Yuan Mai went straight to the place where his troops were stationed, and saw Wang Shuanghe greeted him from a distance, Wang Shuang held the "Tiger Roar" knife in his hand, and couldn't wait to ask: "How is it?" Is Koji willing to send troops to rescue Hao Bodao? ”

Yuan Mai shook his head and resolutely ordered: "The prince obeys the order and leads the cavalry under your command to support Hao Bodao!" ”

Wang Shuang's hands were itchy for a long time, and he couldn't wait to make a contribution, and after listening to Yuan Mai's order, he laughed and said: "Childe is waiting for good news here, see me as a thief!" ”

Wang Shuang turned over his horse, holding a tiger roaring broadsword, and his crotch was "red in the snow", and he came to the cavalry array in an instant. Eight hundred light cavalry were behind, and four hundred heavy armor were in front, and they had already sharpened their swords. The huge "king" flag flutters in the wind.

"Brethren, come with me! Killing thieves and making meritorious contributions, just today, let the Montenegrin thieves taste the power of the elite cavalry under the command of General Yuan Xianyong, with the help of bilateral stirrups, you are the best cavalry in the world! Can you be confident? Wang Shuang reined in his horse and spoke loudly.

"Killing thieves and making meritorious contributions, right today!" 1,200 knights agreed in unison, and the sound shook the sky.

"Heavy armor in front, light cavalry follow, follow me!" Wang Shuang roared, took the lead, and rushed forward.

Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves on the field was loud, the sound reverberated the universe, the smoke and dust were billowing out, and 1,200 elite cavalry went straight to the strangulation field in front.

The tent of the commander of the Chinese army under the Koji Yi was about four or five miles away from the place where Yuan Mai's personal barracks were stationed, and after Yuan Mai heard that Hao Zhao was surrounded, he was anxious and urged his subordinates to march, so he was far away from the army. Although he saw that Koyi's army had stopped marching and was on standby, Yuan Mai had no intention of going back to join him, and ordered 500 personal guards to stand by on the spot and rush to the front line at any time.

After some discussion between the two, they came to two conclusions, one of which was that Zhang Yan was instigated by Gongsun Zhan and wanted to use the terrain of Taihang Mountain to hinder the passage of his team and destroy our plan.

None of the people who can do the princes of one side are fools, and everyone understands that it is tantamount to a fool's dream to take down Daijun with only the 10,000 people and horses of Koyi. But now is the busy season for farming, and the war under the city will inevitably affect spring ploughing, resulting in no harvest in autumn. Koji Yi used his troops very well, Gongsun Zhan was deeply afraid, although Tian Yu's troops were superior, if he really wanted to fight outside the city, he might not be able to take advantage.

But Zhang Yan launched an ambush war with the help of the terrain of Taihang Mountain, Taihang Mountain is majestic, the terrain is steep, if you want to pass through Taihang Mountain, you must take the Taihang Eight Paths, all of them are sheep intestine paths, easy to defend and difficult to attack, if you want to pass, you must pay a heavy price. Even if it can't stop the Northern Expedition of the Koji Yi Army, it will also hit the strength of the Northern Expeditionary Army hard, and when Tian Yu goes out of the city, he can break it with one drum, so that he can relieve the siege of Daijun Spring Ploughing.

"Second, Zhang Yan was not instigated by Gongsun Zhan, but came for our army's food and grass!" Tian Feng knelt next to the handsome case, stroked his beard and analyzed.

"Looting grain?" Koji Yi raised his eyebrows, stroked the scar on his left cheek with his fingers, and muttered: "I have fought with Zhang Yan many times, this person is cunning with soldiers, and he has no faith in his words. Good at surprise soldiers, good at using the sound of the east to attack the west. The Black Mountain thieves suddenly attacked our army, and they may also come for our army's food and grass, so they have to guard against it......"

Speaking of this, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves not far away, Koji Yi's face changed suddenly, his voice was not good, he quickly stood up, and asked, "Where is the cavalry moving?" ”

After a while, the spy reported: "General Yu, it was the superintendent who sent General Wang Ziquan to lead the cavalry to help Captain Hao!" ”

"What? Shafts are abominable! ”

Lu Yi slapped the arrow on the table with an angry slap, and said to Tian Feng: "Yuan Hao, you see, you supported this kid to control the cavalry at the beginning, but now it's good, do things your own way, and don't discuss with me, the main general, when the cavalry is dispatched." In case Yan Zhen used the sound of attacking the west, after our cavalry was dispatched, he plundered our army's grain and grass from behind, so what could he do? ”

Tian Feng was also a little surprised, but he didn't expect Yuan Shao's youngest son to quietly send out cavalry without saying a word, and thought for a while: "It's useless to complain and complain now, you sent an order to let Zhang Wu's troops be on guard and beware of Montenegrin thieves robbing grain." I'll go to the front and take a look, and persuade the boy to chase the cavalry back! ”

"Oops, the scholar made a mistake!"

Koji Yi stroked the beard under his chin angrily, and complained dissatisfiedly: "How can this battle be fought with such constraints?" It's ridiculous to be in chaos like this before you leave Jizhou! If the lord had given me 50,000 troops, he would have wiped out the Black Mountain thieves long ago. Can you still tolerate Zhang Yan's arrogance under your nose? Yan Liang and Wen Chou are called generals in vain, and they can't even clean up a black mountain thief, so it's strange if they don't make people laugh! ”

The Black Mountain thief has always been Yuan Shao's confidant, and it is not that he does not want to exterminate it, but there is Gongsun Zan in the north, Lu Bu in the south, and Cao Cao in the Central Plains is detached and suspicious; Therefore, Yuan Shao has never made up his mind, and desperately pulls out this flesh thorn rooted in his back.

Tian Feng repeatedly advised Yuan Shao to mobilize an elite army and eradicate the Black Mountain thieves at all costs. It's just that he was refuted by the trial and Feng Ji, saying that the number of Black Mountain thieves is huge, and the army will inevitably suffer heavy casualties, and Zhang Yan should be recruited with Huairou's strategy, so Yuan Shao did not listen to Tian Feng's words. It's just that all the good things are said, both soft and hard, Zhang Yan just refuses to surrender.

Thinking of this, Tian Feng was angry, pretended not to hear it at the moment, strode out of the handsome tent, took more than a dozen cronies, and rode straight to the place where Yuan Mai was stationed.

"Pass the order and order Zhang Wu to be on strict guard against the Black Mountain thieves taking advantage of the chaos to rob grain!" Koji Yoshiki was dressed up and decided to go out for a round.

"No!" The herald took the token, got out of the tent, and hurried straight to the grain transport troops in the rear.
