Zhang Yan led more than ten thousand Montenegrin troops to besiege the city.
The troops he brought this time were not many, after all, it was just a small county town.
If there is a large-scale battle, such as a raid on Yuan Shao's city, or other large-scale battles, Zhang Yan will summon the Black Mountain troops from Zhaojun, Zhongshan, Shangdang, Hanoi and other places to fight together.
If the Montenegrin troops from all over the country were gathered together, Zhang Yan's troops could reach more than 100,000 people.
Zhang Yan's name was Chu Yan in his early years. He was short, thin, and agile. He was known as Feiyan, so he was also called Chu Feiyan. When he was young, he dared to fight and kill, and gathered a group of soldiers around him. Later, he joined forces with Zhang Niujiao.
In the army, Zhang Niujiao was elected as the leader.
In the Black Mountain Army, Chu Yan was a good person and had a good relationship with Zhang Niujiao and other leaders. After Zhang Niujiao's death, Chu Yan became the leader of the Black Mountain Army and changed his name to Zhang Yan.
Such a move allowed Zhang Yan to win the hearts of the people and take control of the Black Mountain Army.
Zhang Yan was wearing armor and riding on horseback. She looked up towards the city tower and said loudly: "Zhao Cheng, please open the city gate immediately and send out the food. I will take the people and leave without saying a word."
"If you really fight to the end and the army attacks, Zhending County will be destroyed. By then, I will not be able to restrain the rebellious soldiers, and I will definitely leave no chickens or dogs behind."
"I am also from Changshan State and Zhending County. I have feelings for my elders in my hometown and am attached to my hometown. So if you give me 20,000 shi of grain, I will turn around and leave. And I promise that there won't be any thieves."
Bandits are attacking Zhending County."
On the tower, Zhao Cheng looked cold and solemn.
He made up his mind to defend, but he was still uneasy in his heart, because Zhang Yan had a great reputation in Changshan Kingdom. Many times, Zhang Yan killed him, and the local government surrendered directly. However, he was threatened several times by Zhang Yan, but he did not agree.
Zhang Yan evacuated directly several times before.
This time, I no longer had the patience I had at the beginning, and more troops were brought.
Zhao Cheng took a deep breath and said loudly: "Zhang Yan, you are from Zhending County, and I recognize you as a fellow countryman. If you want to be a thief, no one will stop you. However, if you want to attack Zhending County, I tell you that it is impossible.
."
Zhang Yan suddenly became angry.
There was a cold murderous look in his eyes.
Considering that Zhending County was his hometown, he had a little more patience. Zhao Cheng's repeated refusals made Zhang Yan extremely angry and lost face.
Zhang Yan's eyes were cold and she said loudly: "Zhao Cheng, if you don't have to drink fine wine for the toast, I will grant it to you. Today, I will break Zhending County!"
"Bang the drum!"
Zhang Yan gave the order.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!!
The sound of drums resounded, echoing inside and outside the city.
Zhang Yan drew her sword out of its sheath with a clang, pointed it in the direction of the city tower, and prepared to order an attack. But the moment the words came to her lips, the corners of Zhang Yan's mouth curved up, and a look of surprise appeared on her face.
The city gate is opening.
Could it be that Zhao Cheng likes to be abused? If he threatens, will Zhao Cheng open the city gate and surrender?
This should be.
Zhang Yan sneered in her heart, this man is so despicable, she had to wait for him to seriously beat the drum and order an attack before opening the city gate. However, Zhang Yan was happy for a moment, and the next moment her pupils shrank.
Boom!!
With the sound of horse hooves trampling, a group of cavalry came out of the city, followed closely by a group of infantry.
The number of people was not large, only three to four hundred people.
"Hahaha……"
Zhang Yan laughed loudly, looking at the team that had come out, with a mocking look on her face, and said disdainfully: "A mere team of people wants to defeat my army of more than 10,000 people. It is an idiot's dream."
"Wang Dang, you go up with a thousand soldiers and destroy this army."
Zhang Yan gave the order.
Wang Dang is the leader of the Black Mountain Army and a subordinate of Zhang Yan.
Wang Dang is in his thirties and has a somewhat honest appearance. In fact, Wang Dang is quite cunning and ruthless. In his early years, he was born as a rogue and ran rampant in the countryside. He was swept by the Black Mountain Army, and Wang Dang followed him into the Black Mountain Army.
Wang Dang worked hard on the battlefield and was tall. He quickly established himself and gradually formed his own team. Finally, he was valued by Zhang Yan and became his confidant.
Wang Dang held a three-pointed two-edged sword, said hello, and led his men to kill him.
Lu Xuan led Zhao Yun and Xu Chu in a sprint, followed by a group of cavalry.
Lu Xuan went north this time and brought 30 cavalry with him. In addition to Zhao Yun's more than ten cavalry, a total of more than 40 cavalry followed. The remaining nearly 300 infantry also ran as fast as flying.
The entire team charged forward in an unstoppable manner.
When Lu Xuan saw Zhang Yan, he sent a team of men to stop the attack. The leader was wearing armor and carrying a three-pointed two-edged sword. Lu Xuan immediately made a judgment and shouted loudly: "Zhong Kang, you
The target is a person holding a three-pointed two-edged sword, killing the opponent with one fatal blow."
"clear!"
Xu Chu replied loudly.
Lu Xuanzi said again: "Zilong, you and I will tear apart the opponent's defense and defeat this team."
"Here!"
Zhao Yun answered loudly.
The two sides walked towards each other, further shortening the distance.
Wang Dang's direction was exactly opposite Xu Chu. When the distance between the two sides narrowed, Wang Dang saw Xu Chu coming to kill him and slashed out with his three-pointed two-edged sword.
With the help of his horse's sprinting offensive, Xu Chu mustered up twelve more points of strength and struck with all his strength. The long sword spun in the air and hit the three-pointed two-edged sword hard.
clang!!
The blades collided and sparks flew everywhere.
Vast power erupted from the impact point. Wang Dang felt that the power coming from Xu Chu's blade was like a mountain or a sea. The handle of the knife in his hand trembled, and the three-pointed and two-edged knife flew out instantly.
Xu Chu's knife continued to fall.
Zhila!
The blade scratched Wang Dang's neck, and blood spurted out. Wang Dang screamed, and his burly body fell from the horse, dying.
Xu Chu killed Wang Dang with one blow, followed Lu Xuan instantly, and continued to attack with Lu Xuan and Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun had just torn apart the Black Mountain Army's defense line with Lu Xuan and noticed that Xu Chu had killed someone. He was filled with admiration and even more admiration.
This man named Zhong Kang is so strong!
Zhao Yun also noticed Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan's weapon is also a spear. Sometimes the spear is like a stick, sometimes it stabs straight. It is fast and powerful. Although Lu Xuan's strength is definitely weaker than him, but the leader of a country has such a force, he is no longer weak.
Zhao Yun was not to be outdone, and the gentian silver spear kept waving, and bits of cold light bloomed, piercing the bodies of the Black Mountain Army soldiers one by one.
Wherever the spear passes, those who stand in its way are invincible.
Under the advancement of Zhao Yun, Xu Chu and Lu Xuan, the team was like a sharp dagger, easily piercing the crowd of Black Mountain bandits and killing them continuously. Especially after Wang Dang died, the Black Mountain bandits lost their fighting spirit and fled one after another.
Zhang Yan saw that Wang Dang was killed and the Black Mountain Army was defeated at the first sight. Her face was ashen and she was extremely angry.
He ordered with a cold face: "Sun Qing, lead your team forward and kill these people. After breaking the city, your subordinates will dispose of the money and materials they looted by themselves."
"As you command!"
Sun Qing answered excitedly.
He held a mace in his hand, kicked the horse in the belly, and charged out with his troops.
Sun Qing, like Wang Dang, has his own tribe. Because Zhang Yan is strong, he surrendered to Zhang Yan and obeyed Zhang Yan's arrangements. The biggest source of thieves like them is plundering everywhere. Therefore, breaking the
The robbery and the division of the spoils behind the city are the most exciting.
Zhang Yan allowed him to divide the spoils on his own. Sun Qing was naturally excited and rushed forward quickly, shouting loudly: "My sons, the big leader said, defeat the army of Zhending County, break up the city, and let us plunder and loot."
Everything you get is yours, kill it."
Sun Qingchong was at the front.
When the Black Mountain bandits heard the news, they also became excited.
Sun Qing's tribe rushed over, but the fleeing Wang Dang tribe did not counterattack. This group of people dispersed to both sides, temporarily hiding and watching.
Sun Qing didn't care about Wang Dang's steps and continued to charge forward.
When Zhao Yun saw Sun Qing who had been killed, he was able to identify him in an instant because of his weapons, clothing, and war horses. Zhao Yun looked anxious and said loudly: "Master Lu, leave this man to me."
"good!"
Lu Xuan replied.
He led Xu Chu forward and continued to cover up the fleeing Black Mountain bandits. At the same time, he rushed towards Sun Qing's troops.
The two sides met in an instant.
Lu Xuan and Xu Chu joined forces and directly broke through Sun Qing's defense line and fought their way in.
Zhao Yun and Sun Qing met. The moment Sun Qing's mace was struck, the war horse suddenly took a step forward, cleverly avoiding the mace, and the gentian's bright silver spear thrust out from bottom to top like a dragon out of the sea.
One shot, as fast as a shooting star.
All he saw was a glimmer of cold light, and the gun tip had already reached Sun Qing's chest.
Phew!
The sharp spear tip pierced the armor, broke through the skin, penetrated into Sun Qing's heart, and penetrated directly into Sun Qing's body.
