Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 253 Choice 2
The Black Mountain Army is anxious about how to deal with the Northern Army, but the Northern Army is equally anxious. Gongsun Xu understands that he cannot stay here for too long, and things will change if he delays. If the cavalry on his side cannot return to the grassland in time, the Huns will I'm afraid it will really take some measures.

Moreover, it can be seen that the Huns have changed their strategy now from the fact that the Huns have wooed the Montenegrin Army one after another. They know that it is difficult to defeat the Northern Xinjiang Army militarily, so they must win over allies.

Although the central part of Xianbei and the western part of Xianbei belong to the grassland tribes, firstly, Xianbei and the Xiongnu are feuds, and it is difficult for the two sides to reach an agreement. Second, Yan Liang led more than [-] troops to guard the eastern part of Xianbei. Yan Liang is not a vegetarian either.

It's a pity that Xu Rong can't pull away, otherwise Gongsun Xu can hand over the trouble of the Black Mountain Army to Xu Rong. Although the land of Sanhan has been taken by Xu Rong long ago, it is not peaceful there, and there are often tribes Resistance, Xu Rong was held back by these little troubles.

Besides, Xu Rong needs to watch Liaodong. In general, both Liaodong and Sanhan need a large number of troops to guard. If Xu Rong leaves, there may be quite a bit of chaos.

Originally, the Black Mountain Army had been very low-key these years, and Gongsun Xu ignored the existence of the Black Mountain Army. However, what Gongsun Xu didn't expect was that this time, Yuan Shao dragged the Black Mountain Army into the water.

Originally, this was not a big deal. After all, Zhang Yan has always been quite rational. At least he has never confronted the Northern Army. Even when the Northern Army's [-] cavalry returned to aid Yanmen, Zhang Yan was wise. Choose to retreat in time.

However, there was such a big commotion in the northern border, so it was natural that the Huns did not hide it from the Huns. The Huns and the northern border army confronted each other on the grassland, and they had been suppressed and beaten militarily by the northern border army. They urgently needed to find a breakthrough.

The former Li Damu was one of the targets they were looking for. Unfortunately, before the Huns sent cavalry to support Li Damu to attack Yanmen, Gongsun Xu rescued Yanmen first, and Li Damu also surrendered in the successive attacks In this way, the Huns will naturally have to find new partners for cooperation.

At this time, Zhang Yan appeared in the sight of the Huns. The Black Mountain Army was known as a million. Of course, such combat power should not be underestimated. Besides, what the Huns needed was an ally who could pose a threat to the rear of the Northern Army, and the Black Mountain Army, It just meets this condition.

Gongsun Xu also realized that the problem was more serious than he imagined in the information he received in the past two days. After some analysis by Guo Jia, Gongsun Xu understood that the Black Mountain Army must be suppressed now. If there is any trouble, it will not only be counterattacked by the Huns, but also by Xianbei.

It turned out that when Li Damu led people to attack Yanmen last time, Xianbei also received news. Although under Yan Liang's supervision, Xianbei did not dare to act recklessly, but after the investigation of the spies, Yan Liang discovered that Xianbei had begun to secretly mobilize troops The horse is gone.

As a result, the situation will be severe, and some smaller grassland nomadic tribes such as Wuhuan and Karasuma adjacent to Xianbei are not idle. If there is any change in Xianbei, I am afraid that these tribes will also be mixed in. At that time, Whether Yan Liang can suppress it is still a question.

In order to curb the momentum of the grassland tribes, Gongsun Xu must completely suppress the Black Mountain Army. Whether it is defeating or recruiting the Black Mountain Army, Gongsun Xu must do it. At that time, I am afraid that it will not only be the 30 cavalry of the Huns.

Gongsun Xu was temporarily stationed at the foot of Montenegro, while Li Damu and Huang Tao were busy contacting their acquaintances in the Montenegro Army and persuading them to surrender to the Northern Border Army. In order to resolve the matter of the Montenegro Army peacefully, Gongsun Xu offered the Montenegro Army more generous terms , and even the righteousness of the nation was brought up by Gongsun Xu.

After staying like this for another two days, some people in the Black Mountain Army were really persuaded. Between the Northern Army and the Huns, many people were more inclined to the Northern Army. After all, the Northern Army is a Han regime. , They have no reason to betray the country just to order war horses.

However, some people headed by Zhang Baiqi support the alliance with the Huns, so that they can take the opportunity to develop their power. Of course, more people choose to take a wait-and-see attitude like Bai Rao. They are still waiting to see which side More chances of winning.

Zhang Yan is very distressed now. His control over the Black Mountain Army is not so satisfactory. Although the Black Mountain Army of Li Damu and Lei Gong are gone, there are still many people in the remaining Black Mountain Army who refuse to accept him.

Originally, this was not a big deal, there was no factional struggle within any army, and, according to Zhang Yan's character, if this was normal, he would definitely find a reason to kill all the troublemakers, Zhang Yan could It's not a good man or a woman, whoever provokes him, he will not be merciful.

But the crux of the problem is that now is a very good time. If it is not handled well, there will be big problems. Zhang Yan does not want to send the Black Mountain Army to a dead end because of a wrong decision of his own. Therefore, these days, Zhang Yan has not come to a conclusion , He wanted to wait for Zhang Ning to wake up, after all, many times, Zhang Ning could see more clearly than him.

The Black Mountain Army held another military meeting, but this kind of meeting became more and more lively like a vegetable market. Zhang Baiqi didn't know what kind of ambition and leopard courage he had eaten. Now he was talking more and more presumptuously, and Zhang Yan held back for the time being. Now, according to his guess, it may be that the Huns promised Zhang Baiqi something.

While everyone was arguing endlessly, one of Zhang Yan's personal soldiers ran in suddenly, and then, this personal soldier didn't care about the leaders in the tent, he went straight to Zhang Yan and said a few words into Zhang Yan's ear After listening to Zhang Yan's words, Zhang Yan's frown was finally a little loose.

After a while, everyone's quarrels stopped. Zhang Yan knew that he still couldn't draw any conclusions today, so he stood up and said, "Everyone, let's stop here today. I think everyone should go back and rectify the soldiers and horses." , Regardless of whether we are going to fight the Northern Xinjiang Army or not, the training of this army must not be relaxed."

Zhang Baiqi originally wanted to take advantage of today's opportunity to finalize the cooperation with the Huns, but Zhang Yan still wanted to delay it now, and after seeing the soldier running in just now and saying a few words to Zhang Yan, Zhang Yan's reaction was a bit abnormal, Zhang Baiqi seemed to have guessed something.

So, as soon as Zhang Yan finished speaking, Zhang Baiqi stood up and said: "Marshal, the matter has come to this point, there is no need to hesitate. The Northern Xinjiang Army has clearly made it difficult for us. If we are hesitating, I am afraid we will only To give the Northern Border Army an opportunity, why don't we lead a large group of people down to compete with the Northern Border Army now, so as to find out their strength.

Furthermore, if we still hide on the mountain and refuse to fight, I am afraid that brothers will think that we are afraid of the Northern Border Army, Commander, and now many brothers are saying in private that we are as cowardly as mice, the Commander can't Procrastinate any longer. "

Everyone in the tent naturally heard something in Zhang Baiqi's words. This Baiqi was indeed a little presumptuous. He dared to interrupt Zhang Yan again after Zhang Yan gave the order. If it was normal, Zhang Yan would definitely You have to find a way to kill this white knight.

Looking at Zhang Baiqi and looking at herself, Zhang Yan sneered and asked, "Are you teaching me how to do things?"

Zhang Baiqi also heard the unkindness in Zhang Yan's tone, but at this juncture, he had to persevere, otherwise he would be underestimated by others, so he stared at Zhang Yan and replied: "Subordinates dare not, It’s just that the subordinates feel that,,,,,,”

"Don't you understand what I'm talking about?" Zhang Yan suddenly roared, this roar directly made most of the people in the tent tremble with fear, Zhang Baiqi is also a little panicked now, if Zhang Yan is really provoked If it gets hot, I will definitely have no good fruit to eat.

In desperation, Zhang Baiqi had no choice but to retreat honestly, and no one dared to disobey Zhang Yan's will anymore. Zhang Yan was in a hurry, so he didn't entangle with these people anymore. However, after Zhang Yan walked out of the big Before the tent, he glanced at Bai Rao, and Bai Rao nodded to him, as if the two had some secret.

Not long after, everyone in the tent also dispersed, and Bai Rao was the last one to leave. All along, Bai Rao kept a low profile, and many people didn't pay much attention to this veteran of the Black Mountain Army.

After Zhang Yan left the camp, he immediately led three hundred soldiers on horseback and left the camp. After they left, an unremarkable soldier in a corner also left the camp from another direction.

On the way, Zhang Yan asked a soldier beside him, "When did Miss wake up?"

This soldier was the one who just ran into the big tent to report the situation to Zhang Yan, and he immediately replied: "I just woke up, but as soon as the lady woke up, she told us to find the general, according to the two maids who took care of the lady, The young lady is in a good condition now, so she shouldn't be in any serious trouble."

"I hope." Zhang Yan said to himself: "General Tiangong, if you have a spirit in heaven, you can guide us. What should the Black Mountain Army do? I don't want to let the millions of people in the Black Mountain Army suffer. , Zhang Yan's ability is limited, and he failed to fulfill General Tiangong's last wish, which is really a heinous crime."

While Zhang Yan was sighing on the road, in another large camp of the Black Mountain Army, the soldier who had been monitoring Zhang Yan just now reported to Zhang Baiqihui: "My lord, Zhang Yan led three hundred cavalry out of the camp, look It looks like I'm going to Miss's place."

"What? I'm going there." Zhang Baiqi said angrily after hearing this: "Could it be that this girl is getting better, it's abominable."

Then, Zhang Baiqi turned around and said to a man next to him who looked a little different from the Central Plains people: "Messenger, please go back and tell Shan Yu that things may not go so smoothly. This girl Zhang Ning is awake. The matter of our alliance, It might be a little difficult.”

The emissary sneered and said: "A mere girl can make General Zhang Baiqi so afraid. Could it be that General Zhang is either a man or a woman? At worst, he is killed secretly. Your Excellency should think clearly, Rong Hua Wealth is right in front of your eyes."

Greed flashed in Zhang Baiqi's eyes after hearing this, and he replied coldly: "I know what to do, I don't need you to teach me."
