Chapter 17: Zhang Yan Strikes Again

Therefore, for a long time after that, the military strength of Youzhou was supported by Gongsun Zhan. Now that the power of these two people has come to the front of the power of Wen Chou, if Wen Chou can develop smoothly in Jizhou, then it is possible to have a battle with one of these two people.

There are prerequisites for this, so although Wen Chou has paid a little attention to the erosion situation in Youzhou, it is just a waste of too much energy, because there are bigger problems waiting for him to deal with! Can't get a firm foothold in Jizhou, let alone talk about the politics of other states?

Wen Chou's nearly two months in Ye County, Wei County, although it brought him countless praises and opportunities to play in the future, but also brought a lot of problems to his forces. The first thing is that after he transferred 5,000 soldiers, Wen Chou's defense in the jurisdiction of Changshan Country suddenly weakened a lot.

Originally, the reluctance of the battle with Zhang Yan was a little shocking to the surrounding Xiaoxiao, and at the same time, it also had a somewhat awakening effect on Zhang Yan and his people, plus after that, Han Fu arrived and asked for promotion, Li Jin went out of the mountain, identified himself, and entered the Changshan country, and when Lieutenant Changshan saw the wind and made Tuo's change to support the power of Wen Chou, the sphere of influence of Wen Chou in the south of Changshan Country largely overshadowed the threat of the surrounding Black Mountain bandits.

However, the good times were not long-lasting, because the main army of Wen Chou's five thousand Wu Mengyi was quickly transferred from Wen Chou and went to the state to govern Ye County, which made the real defense power of Pingjian and Gaoyi counties suddenly decreased a lot, even if there were Changshan soldiers in the north of the county to open their eyes and cheer for them, they could not make up for the disadvantage of Wen Chou's forces.

In this way, while Wen Chou visited the army and the people in Ye County, he was carrying out a large-scale transformation and improvement of his own martial arts and righteousness. Pingjian, Gaoyi and other counties, the places under the jurisdiction of the Wenchou forces, were threatened by the surrounding Montenegrin bandits. is also led by Zhang Yan. But it's more threatening, disciplined and planned than ever. It means that in this period of rapid development of Wenchou, he Zhang Yan is not idle!

By the time the news of the bandits' attack reached Wen Chou's tent, the real battle had been going on for a day or two, and it was a-for-tat battle. In Changshan Country, and even in Jizhou, the existence of Wen Chou has seriously threatened the safety of Zhang Yan and other Montenegrin thieves. Therefore, the battle between them and Wen Chou is essentially a confrontation, either you die or I die, and there is no room for concession.

If Wen Chou wants to further develop his own power, he will inevitably attack these thieves who are entrenched in the vicinity of Taihang Mountain, and the thieves around Changshan Country are the top priority. Similarly, the current existence of Wen Chou has made the thieves of Montenegro blocked to a certain extent, so that the south of Changshan Kingdom is headed by Yang Feng, the captain of Montenegro, and the north of Changshan Country is headed by Zhang Yan, the general of Pingnan Zhonglang. It makes them not so smoothly connected. As a result, their threat power has been greatly reduced.

In such a situation, it is naturally not what the Black Mountain thieves want, if they want to play further, they naturally need a lot of prestige, and they also have a lot of ideas about the people under the jurisdiction of Wen Chou. This has created a situation in which Tongwen Chou does not fight endlessly. Unless there is a big change.

Such a change is that the development of Wen Chou's power has shifted from the jurisdiction of the bandits, or the development direction of the Montenegrin bandits has been changed to something else. Such a change. In Wen Chou's imagination, it is not far away. That is the battle of the neighboring world's heroes.

In this battle, not only Wen Chou, Sun Jian and other characters can fish in troubled waters, so as to make great strides in fame and power. The thieves of Montenegro can also take advantage of the Kwantung Heroes to crusade against Dong Zhuo, and when they have no time to take care of others, they can quickly develop their own forces, of course, it is also possible that they will be in such a big event. Seize the opportunity and become one of the best! Take off the thief's hat.

But this incident, Wen Chou knows, but others don't know! Even though there are many rumors of chaos in Luoyang, the divine capital, there are also rumors that Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and other heroes have left the other side without delay. But until the final step, no one is sure that such a big event will occur.

It's just that other people in Jizhou can't fully agree with Wen Chou's statement, let alone the Montenegrin group of thieves? Most of them are not very long-sighted people, as far as Zhang Yan still has a little strategic vision, but he is not completely sure of Wen Chou's rhetoric, even if Wen Chou will avoid the damage of the military source before the fight against Dong in the future, and write as a book, and make a rather sincere and long analysis for Zhang Yan.

But even so, the battle was not avoided. When Wen Chou received the report of the war, he was still a little gloomy and helpless. Even though I know the general trend of future development, I still can't make the development of things change slightly according to my own wishes, which is the general trend of history!

Even though there were letters to persuade Zhang Yan, Wen Chou did not make his jurisdiction relax in the slightest, which was caused by the cautious character of Wen Chou and the people under his command. Therefore, after Zhang Yan launched the battle that he had prepared quite well, there was no rout in the land under the jurisdiction of Wen Chou, which was the resilience of Wen Chou's army.

This time, Zhang Yan prepared for nearly half a year, and mobilized the forces of seven or eight Montenegrin bandits around the Wenchou jurisdiction, and the total number of troops dispatched reached as much as seventy or eighty thousand. It can be said that it is a big battle related to survival within the jurisdiction of Wenchou.

If the forces of Wen Chou can successfully resist this well-planned invasion, then it will mark that the forces of Wen Chou have really gained a firm foothold in Changshan State, and even in Jizhou, and will not be suddenly wiped out by any force, even if it is a million people in Montenegro who were at their peak, they can't do anything about it.

Although this battle dealt a great blow to the forces of Wen Chou, it did not completely erase the power of Wen Chou. First of all, in Pingjian, Gaoyi, Fang, Luancheng and other counties and townships, there are more than 10,000 elite divisions guarding the land and waiting for battle. Under the leadership of the main generals, they bore the brunt of the first round of attacks by Zhang Yan's army, and to a certain extent, they entered a state of stalemate with the Black Mountain bandit forces led by Zhang Yan.

Moreover, the soldiers of Changshan Country made a move to aid the Wenchou forces at the first time. That is, under the supervision of Minister Li Jin and the personal leadership of Lieutenant Changshan, an attack on Zhang Yan's base camp was carried out. (To be continued......)
