Although the number of the Montenegrin army at this time was large, it still did not fully reach its heyday in history.

When the Montenegrin army reached its peak in history, although its overall strength was far inferior to that of Yuan Shao, the lord of Hebei, it was also a headache for Yuan Shao.

However, although the Montenegrin Army at this time has not yet fully reached the momentum that it has in history to intimidate Hebei, it may not have the strength to fight with the newly established Jizhou Army and the Liyang Battalion.

It's just that Zhang Niujiao, the commander of the Montenegrin Army, is a big difference in courage and courage compared to Zhang Yan, the commander of the Montenegrin Army in the heyday of history.

It's just that the number of people involved in the war this time is too large, even if it is a strategic mistake, but relying on the number of people alone will not necessarily lead to defeat.

But Zhang Niujiao does not have the courage and boldness.

They can take advantage of the carelessness of the Shen family, but they will not fight to the death with the Jizhou army, which is fully armed and has come to fight them with all their might.

This is not in line with Zhang Niujiao's vision and interests.

However, in addition to Zhang Niujiao himself, there are many people in the Montenegrin army who are extremely brave and courageous.

Chu Yan is one of them.

The current Chu Yan has not changed his name to Zhang Yan, and among the commanders of the Montenegrin Army, he has not been particularly high, although Zhang Niujiao admires him very much, but the young Chu Yan is now among the many Montenegrin military commanders, and he is still ranked relatively low.

Similar to Bai Huan, Yu Poison, Yang Feng, Tao Sheng, Yu Yigen and other Qu Shuai, who are older and control more people and food, their reputation is still far above Chu Yan.

Therefore, after this break, Zhang Niujiao could only send the young Chu Yan to break the queen.

One is that Zhang Niujiao trusts Chu Yan more.

The second is also Zhang Niujiao, who is still unable to command the rest of the big-name Montenegrin military commanders.

The structure of the Montenegrin Army is different from that of the official army, and to put it bluntly, they do not have any structure at present.

There is no distinction between high and low commanders, although everyone is in Montenegro, but they are not unified, and Zhang Niujiao is only a relatively large force among the Montenegrin army commanders, which does not mean that he can command other commanders.

It's like this time to rob the trial, Zhang, the Wang clan of the Sun Sanjia Yin'an, Zhang Niujiao also invited Yu Poison Daqu Shuai of Montenegro to come and loot with him.

And the other Yang Feng, Bai Huan and others, although they received Zhang Niujiao's invitation, they didn't pee on his pot at all.

At this time, the Montenegrin army retreated, and Yu Poison could not pay attention to Zhang Niujiao's set at all, nor would he deliberately command his subordinates to block Zhang Niujiao's knife.

Therefore, only Chu Yan stood up at this moment and broke Zhang Niu's horn.

"Kill! Kill! ”

Chu Yan held the ring head knife in his hand, and led a group of elite Black Mountain soldiers to fight at the front of the team, covered in blood, and the thieves around him fell like cutting wheat.

Chu Yan is one of the few people in the Montenegrin army who can be fully armoured, and he fights bravely, so he is also particularly conspicuous in the Montenegrin army.

At this time, Zhang Fei and Han Dang, who were rushing to kill in the Black Mountain military array, both noticed Chu Yan's existence.

Looking from a distance, I saw Chu Yan with a group of relatives, fighting left and right, morale like a rainbow, but also a little unstoppable.

Zhang Fei laughed, he stabbed a black mountain knight in front of him with a spear, and said loudly: "I don't want to be among the thieves, there are such heroes!" Wait for me to kill him! ”

Han Dangdao, who followed Zhang Fei's side: "Captain He Lao will do it, and wait for the last official to capture ......"

Before Han Dang's words were finished...... Suddenly, I saw a white horseman, the horse flashed past the two of them, and sprinted straight towards Chu Yanzhi's place, like a white meteor, extremely dazzling.

Zhang Fei was stunned at first, he hurriedly looked at it, but saw that the speed of the white horse knight was extremely fast, and the soldiers of the Black Mountain Army who met in the process of galloping were all thrown by him and easily stabbed to the ground.

"Who is this? It's so amazing! ”

Zhang Fei looked at Han Dang in some surprise.

When Shicai's white horse rushed over, Zhang Fei didn't pay attention, but Han Dang saw it clearly.

"Captain, it is Shaojun's new Sima, Changshan Zhao Zilong!"

"Huh?"

Zhang Fei was taken aback: "It's that kid!" ”

He turned his head again to look in the direction of Zhao Yun's sprint, and muttered, "I can't see that this person has such courage!" ”

Han Dang said helplessly: "I don't know if I am brave or not, but you and I are just the credit of you, I'm afraid that this kid will be monopolized!" ”

When Zhang Fei heard this, he immediately reacted.

Zhao Yun, this kid, made it clear that he was going in the direction where Chu Yan was!

"How dare you, boy!"

As soon as Zhang Fei pulled the reins of the horse, he was about to chase after the horse: "Yigong, you go with me!" I don't believe that you and I can rob him, and I can't rob him of credit! ”

After saying that, he urged the black horse that sat down, and followed Zhao Yun's direction to chase after him.

Han Dang hurriedly rode his horse to follow.

The two of them led their troops to kill the Black Mountain Bandit on the road, and followed Zhao Yun at the same time.

On the way, I heard Han Dang hesitate and said: "Captain, in fact, as you and me, I went to grab merit with a young man who had just been established as Sima by Shaojun, and spread it out, which was somewhat gloomy, and Shaojun seemed to appreciate Zhao Zilong, if he was unhappy because of this little thing, I am afraid that Shaojun would not look good on his face." ”

The spear in Zhang Fei's hand suddenly stopped.

He pulled the reins of his horse and shouted "Phew, Hoo", so that the black horse stood in place.

Then, I saw Zhang Fei showing an expression of understanding.

"Yes, yes, I am now the captain of the Liyang Battalion with a rank of 2,000 stones, and I am at the same level as the captain of the Fifth Battalion of the Northern Army, how can I compete with a kid who has just come out? It's not good to spread out! It's the pole, it's the pole! If it weren't for the righteous father's reminder, it would have almost lost face! ”

Han Beware said: He also said that he was a kid...... In fact, you are not much older than Zhao Yun!

……

At the same time, Chu Yan was raiding back and forth in the ranks of the official army.

Every time he kills someone, he shouts:

"Montenegro Wansheng!"

"Montenegro Wansheng!"

It's just such a moment, there are no less than ten Jizhou officers and soldiers who died under his knife, Chu Yan roared in the sky, and the war knife in his hand suddenly pointed forward, as if to guide the soldiers behind him, and shouted again:

"Wan Sheng!"

But following the point of his blade, a young warrior in a black armor and white robe had already appeared opposite him.

Chu Yan looked at it intently and felt that this young man was quite familiar.

But now that he was on the battlefield, he didn't have time to find out if the other party was someone he knew.

Then, I saw Chu Yanmeng's belly of the horse, and shouted: "Kill!" ”

Then he rushed towards the boy.

Zhao Yun pointed the spear in his hand to the sky and shouted loudly: "Changshan Zhao Zilong is here!" Brother Chu, it's been a long time! ”

This shout made Chu Yan's mind a little dazed for a moment.

His movements did not slow down in the slightest, but a thought suddenly rose in his heart.

Changshan Zhao Zilong? Some are familiar, what does it have to do with Zhao Jun?

However, thoughts are ideas, but Chu Yan's hands were merciless, and he tried his best to slash at Zhao Yun's head with a knife!

Zhao Yunyi was not afraid, he raised the spear horizontally, effortlessly strained a gear, and swung Chu Yan's battle knife directly out.

Chu Yan crossed hands with him, and suddenly turned his head to look at Zhao Yun, in addition to fierceness, his eyes also revealed surprise!

Shicai almost used all his strength with his own knife, but the other party didn't seem to be moved by himself, and he blocked his knife lightly.

Is there really such a character in Changshan?

It's his fellow countryman Zhao Jun himself, I'm afraid he can't do it!

But at this moment, Zhang Yan couldn't think about it, and saw that Zhao Yun had already mounted forward, rushing towards him with a spear!

The soldiers in the front charged at the front, and Liu Jian himself was in charge of the army in the rear.

After a short time, I saw Cheng Pu, who was in charge of commanding at the front line, come to Liu Jian.

"Envoy, the Black Mountain Army has retreated, and now there is only one lone army after it is broken, it is not difficult to break it, the disaster of the Shen Clan's Wu Fort has been solved, should we drive the troops to save the Zhang family and the Sun family?"

Liu Jian looked at Cheng Pu with a smile and said, "I'm waiting for a while." ”

Obviously, Liu Jian was not in a hurry to save those two families.

Cheng Pu said inexplicably: "Why is the envoy like this, if it is delayed slightly, I am afraid that the two big families will suffer too much loss, and I am afraid that they will be complained about when they turn around." ”

"Joke, I went back to the army to save them, it is reasonable, it is already benevolent and righteous, a little sooner or later, but it is limited by the battlefield situation, but it is beyond my control, why should they complain about me?"

"Besides, when the examiner's father-in-law sent someone to ask me for help, he said that he was wrong...... None of them came to me. ”

When Cheng Pu heard this, he immediately understood what Liu Jian was thinking.

He stepped forward and came to Liu Jian's side, and said: "The meaning of the envoy is understood by the last official, but there is one thing, the last official still needs to advise the envoy." ”

"It doesn't hurt to be outspoken."

Cheng Pudao: "It seems that the Sun family, the Zhang family, a wealthy family of scripture and learning, a hundred-year-old family, has a deep heritage, and they are empty-eyed, so that the king will return to the army today to help, first save the trial family, and then postpone not to go to the two of them, I am afraid that they will inevitably have resentment in their hearts afterwards, so I am afraid that the great cause of the king will be unfavorable." ”

Liu Jian said lightly: "Demou, you are wrong, people like them, forced under Wubao in Montenegro, refuse to ask me for help, it is enough to prove that even if I go to save them now, in the future to govern Jizhou, as long as there is a slight disobedience to their wishes, they will definitely go against me, such a family is not familiar, today they don't hate me, tomorrow they will hate me, I govern Jizhou, it is impossible not to touch the interests of their family, the conflict is sooner or later!" ”

Liu Jian knows very well that he wants to compete in the world, and at the same time take the opportunity of the chaos to change the ills of this dynasty, but in this world, there has never been a reform that does not require bloodshed.

If you want to achieve prosperity, you must destroy some people who are full of people. This is the law of history!

In history, there has never been a harmonious and bloody reform.

Cheng Pu heard this: "Since this is the case, just don't save them at all, and let Montenegro destroy them!" ”

Liu Jian shook his head and said, "It's okay for Montenegro to find an opportunity to attack them and rob some goods, but it can't shake their foundation." ”

Cheng Pu suddenly said: "What do you mean?" ”

"Sooner or later, I'll have to do it myself."

Cheng Pu was taken aback when he heard this, and hurriedly whispered: "Killing famous people without permission, I am afraid that I will lose my notoriety in the world." ”

Liu Jian said with a smile: "So you can't kill without permission, you must kill with reason, and you must purge with reason, not only determined to destroy them, but also let the world corporal clan stand on my side in terms of justice, and disdain to be with them." ”

Cheng Puqi said: "How can there be such a reason? ”

"Why not? Isn't rebellion a reason! ”

Cheng Pu's eyes widened when he heard this.

Rebel? Who rebelled? They rebelled?

Liu Jian said slowly: "I don't want to live the kind of day when everything I do in Jizhou has to be discussed and negotiated with the local nobles, and I have to go through their consent, what I want is in the land of Hebei: if you say nine things, those who oppose me will die!" ”

"But if you want to do it thoroughly, you have to go through one cleaning, or even several cleanings."

"Whatever you can do, you have to pay attention to a righteous name, if I directly kill the family who disobeys me, I will make myself stand opposite the world's corporal and the family, and they will be labeled as a good killer."

"So, we have to force these people who don't want to obey and want to rule Jizhou together with Jizhou!"

"Even if they are a noble clan, as long as their charges of rebellion are fulfilled, the noble clans and scholars in the world will definitely criticize them, and if they stand on their opposite side, they will definitely support me,"

"Scholars, the most important thing is face and orthodoxy, what kind of person, as long as he is stained with the title of rebellion, it is equivalent to self-isolation from all the scholars in the world! No matter how high the prestige of the famous family is, it will collapse in an instant, and when the time comes, even if I destroy their full door, justice is still in me, and the heart of the scholar is still in me. ”

"How can you be so sure?"

Liu Jian said with a smile: "I should be sure, don't talk about them, it is the Runan Yuan family, once they are put on the hat of rebellion, they will also be isolated from the world, and no one wants to be with them, and they can't get up." ”

Cheng Pu said suddenly: "So you want to force them to rebel once?" ”

"Yes, but they won't rebel for a while, I will slowly guide them to rebel, just take this Zhang family and the Sun clan as a lead, it is best for them to contact more families who are dissatisfied with my future policies, and pull them out in a row, and save me the trouble of checking one by one, and it is the safest to do it once and for all."
