As mentioned above, Liu Bei led 2,000 second-rate soldiers to win the victory in Zhuojun, so he thought that the yellow turbans in the world were ordinary and unbearable for a battle, so he went south to attack the Hejian country occupied by the Montenegrin army, but he hit Zhang Yan's gun headlong, and after suffering a loss, he quickly withdrew to Zhuojun and prepared the army, so as to support Lu Zhi's army when it went north.

can make Liu Bei suffer losses in the battle array, it can be seen that Zhang Yan still has a set of ways to lead troops to fight. Zhang Yan is a native of Changshan Zhending (the same township as Zhao Yun, his surname is Chu. When the Yellow Turban 1U-N started, the young Zhuang who gathered near the township became a bandit, and the number of his subordinates once reached tens of thousands. To put it jokingly, if Zhao Yun hadn't been promoted by Zhao Xing early, maybe he would have followed Chu Yan #25o for a while!

So how could Chu Feiyan change her name to Zhang Yan? This has to start with Zhang Niujiao, the leader of the yellow scarf along the other way. Zhang Niujiao is a Boling (now a native of Dingzhou, Hebei, who started with the great virtuous and good teacher, and was engaged in the generals, and later joined forces with Zhang Yan's Black Mountain thieves. Chu Yan pushed Zhang Niujiao as the commander, and the two roads merged into one place, attacking Lunu, the capital of Zhongshan (now Dingzhou, Hebei, Zhang Niujiao was hit by the arrow from the head of the city, and before he died, he waited for his subordinates to follow Chu Yan and said: "Yan will be the commander." ”

After Zhang Niujiao's death, Chu Yan became the commander of the army. In order to miss Zhang Niujiao, Chu Yan changed her surname to Zhang, and has been known as Zhang Yan since then. Because Changshan, Zhaojun, Zhongshan, Shangdang, Hanoi and other places are covered by the Taihang Mountains, and there are valleys between these mountains that connect with each other, Zhang Yan then entered Montenegro and annexed all the bandits and robbers from all over the country to the command of the Montenegrin army.

In the past, the bandits in the Taihang Mountains who had been swept away by Zhao Yun with men and horses were now considered to have found an organization, and the leaders of the cottage, Sun Qing, Wang Dang, Du Chang and others, defected to Zhang Yan one after another, and were named Xiaoshuai by Zhang Yan. The number of the Montenegrin army expanded rapidly, and by the end of the fourth year of Zhongping had exceeded 100,000. So Zhang Yan divided the 100,000 Montenegrin army into more than 20 sub-villages, which were numbered as: "Black Mountain, Bai Bo, Zuo Xiao, Qingniujiao, Zhang Baiqi, Zuo Zhangba, Pinghan, Daji, Si Li, Peng Zai, Lei Gong, Fuyun, Feiyan, Baique, Yang Feng, Yu Poison, Wulu, Bai Huan, Qi Gu, Ku Ka. ”

The Black Mountain Army Wulu, Baihuan, Qigu, Kuda and other cottages heard that the party was so rich that they actually moved the idea of robbing the party, and when Zhao Xing went north to find the bad luck of the Xianbei people, they dispatched more than 10,000 bandits to Zhan County to fight the autumn wind. At that time, the party was left behind by Jia Xu, the division of the Xi Army, and Gao Shun, the head of the training regiment, and after the shadow reported the news of the Black Mountain bandits' intention to attack Zhan County to Jia Xu, Jia Xu immediately invited Gao Shun to make operational deployments. Gao Shun got Jia Xu's guidance and took more than 10,000 half-baked "raw melons and eggs" from the training group to Zhan County.

In the eyes of Gao Shun and Zhao Xing, the "raw melon and egg" is obviously different from the 2,000 soldiers led by Liu Da'er, and its combat effectiveness is even more incomparable. The "raw melons" in Bingzhou used the "Shangdang Made" of Qingyi S-, the weapons and armor were all good, and there were more warriors trapped in the camp as the backbone, and the Shangdang soldiers stationed in Huguan assisted from the side, and when they encountered the black mountain thieves who did not know the height of the sky, they found the best sparring partner.

Gao Shun first led thousands of soldiers to pretend to stick to Zhan County, attracting the Black Mountain Thieves to rush forward and surround the city of Zhan County, and then dispatched 10,000 foot soldiers who were ambushed not far away to surround the Black Mountain Thieves, and under a fierce beating, more than 10,000 Black Mountain Thieves were killed and injured by thousands from the bandit leaders Wulu, Bai Huan, Qi Gu, and Ku Ka, and the rest were all taken prisoner, and none of them escaped.

For the captured group of Black Mountain thieves, their x-ng quality is fundamentally different from the "Yellow Turban 1u-n people" who were abducted and brought into Bingzhou by Tian Feng at the beginning. These guys were the "rangers" in the township at the beginning, which is now called the ruffian hooligan ho;nho;n. After consulting Zhao Xing, Wulu, Baihuan, Qigu, and Kuka were beheaded in public, and the remaining more than 10,000 Montenegrin captives were all driven into the mine, and the more than 10,000 Xianbei people who were later captured were mixed with one place, and in the future, they would contribute to the economic development and construction of the state.

After the news of the destruction of Wulu, Baihuan, Qigu, and Kuda came back to Montenegro, Zhang Yan was greatly shocked, gathered the leaders of the rest of the cottages together, pointed at everyone's nose and scolded. At that time, Zhang Yan said: "Bingzhou is the place where Zhao shaved his head, and his people are known for their ferocity and cruelty, and now they are building several new human head landscapes outside the Great Wall.

Zhang Yan was scolding people on his side, but when he heard his subordinates report that Liu Bei of Zhuojun had come to attack Hejian with 2,000 men, he was furious.

"Liu Da'er deceived me and no one called the Black Mountain army?" Zhang Yan scolded, but what he thought in his heart was "Lao Tzu can't beat Zhao Xing, can't he still play you Liu Bei?" Then he prepared his men and horses and rushed to the vicinity of Yan County in the north of Hejian Country overnight to set up an ambush. After waiting for three or five days, Liu Bei really led people through Juxian County and prepared to attack Shuzhou. Zhang Yan brought 30,000 descendants this time, and set up an ambush on the slopes of the valley on both sides, and unintentionally beat Liu Bei to the point that he lost his armor and fled in embarrassment.

Although Liu Bei had several fierce generals such as Zhang Fei, Gao Lan and Han Meng, there were too few soldiers and soldiers to withstand the siege of Zhang Yan's tens of thousands of troops. After losing more than half of the soldiers, Gao Ran and Han Meng escorted Liu Bei back to Zhuo County, but Zhang Fei was immediately speared and took the initiative to stay behind and break the rear. At that time, in the face of tens of thousands of Black Mountain troops, Zhang Fei was not afraid of S-, and shouted: "Yanren Zhang Yide is here, who dares to come to die!"

Zhang Yan was not convinced, so he urged Ma to fight Zhang Fei. After a few rounds of fighting, Zhang Yan realized that Zhang Fei was superior in force, and he couldn't beat it, so he moved his heart to fight. Zhang Yan was so distracted that Zhang Fei immediately found a flaw, and a spear hit Zhang Yan's left arm. Seeing that the handsome Sun Qing and Wang Dang under Zhang Yan were injured, they hurriedly ordered their own soldiers to release arrows, stopped Zhang Fei's next critical attack, and took the opportunity to snatch Zhang Yan back.

Zhang Yan, who was wounded, hurriedly led the army to retreat to Montenegro and no longer fell in love with the war. Zhang Fei didn't dare to stay longer, and hurriedly returned to Zhuo County, so far Liu Bei's first southern expedition suffered a heavy setback, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to recover for a while.

After Zhang Yan returned to Montenegro, he carefully pondered the results of the use of troops before and after, and now used his subordinates to deal with the general officers and soldiers, and he could still win in the case of superior numbers, but it was very dangerous to deal with strong troops similar to those under Zhao Xing of Bingzhou.

Now the imperial army led by Lu Zhi, the general of Beizhonglang, has occupied Gaoyi, and the soldiers are surrounding the Julu Pottery, where the general of Tiangong and the great virtuous teacher are located, and it seems that the fall of Zhang Jiao is not far away. Once Lu Zhi won the victory and waved his army north, the Montenegrin army would face the most sharp soldiers of the Han Dynasty who were equipped with good equipment and brave in battle. At that time, I am afraid that the Montenegrin army will have to move into the deep mountains of Taihang and hide everywhere in order to escape.

After figuring out the joints, Zhang Yan immediately ordered all his men and horses who occupied some of the cities of Zhongshan Kingdom and Hejian Kingdom to withdraw from the two places, and instead entered the nearby area of Changshan Country close to Montenegro, trying to preserve their strength before the big war came.

Zhang Yan's active contraction strategy later really brought endless hidden dangers to the imperial court, not only Lu Zhi failed to completely exterminate the Montenegrin army, but later Gongsun Zhan, Yuan Shao and others also had no way, until Zhao Xing occupied the land of Jizhou and used specially trained mountain troops, it took Hua three years to completely suppress the bandits......
