Chapter 408: Fire Attacks Zhang Yan

Zhending County border.

Zhang Yan escaped with her people and rested in place.

He had more than 10,000 troops under his command and suffered heavy losses. Not too many people were actually killed in this battle. It was mainly due to large-scale fleeing and self-trampling, and some people were lost. Most of the people who fled would come back one after another.

However, the failure of the attack on Zhending County had a very bad impact on Zhang Yan and would affect Zhang Yan's prestige. Especially the killing of Sun Qing and Wang Dang further weakened Zhang Yan's strength and weakened Zhang Yan's power.

Zhang Yan sat with her back against a big tree, thinking about the next step. Should she immediately return to the Black Mountain area and reorganize her troops? Or should she continue to attack Zhending County and take advantage of Zhending County's power?

He thought for a while, looked at the dog-headed military advisor Gao Yuan beside him, and laughed at himself: "Old Gao, the loss this time is too heavy. If you tell me, no one will believe it. The army was overrun by more than 300 people. Tell me, what happened?

Isn’t that strange?”

Lao Gao is a thin man with a mustache on his lips and a short goatee under his chin. He is a typical dog-headed military advisor. He smiled and said: "General, victory or defeat is a common thing for military officers. After losing for a while, you just have to win again."

Zhang Yan asked: "You mean, attack again?"

Lao Gao solemnly said: "Under normal circumstances, when you return to Montenegro now, you have to suppress the situation and stabilize the situation immediately. But as a result, people will think you are weak."

"If the general takes Zhending County by surprise and massacres the city directly, even if all the troops are lost, people will be afraid and will not dare to act rashly."

"When you are strong, even if you only have one soldier, no one dares to act rashly. When you are weak, even if you have thousands of troops around you, it is easy for others to take advantage of you and stab you in the back."

Lao Gao's eyes were dark and he persuaded: "As a humble suggestion, I would like to send a message to the nearby Commander Du of the Black Mountain Army and ask him to join us in attacking Zhending County."

Zhang Yan said: "Is it appropriate to invite Chief Du to come at this time?"

Lao Gao looked confident and replied: "We are fighting with Zhending County today. There are a small number of cavalry in the city, which means there are a group of war horses. In addition, Zhending County also has countless grains."

"These are the benefits."

"These are the things that make people excited."

"So there is nothing to worry about. Just tell Chief Du that Zhending County has been captured. He will take the best horses and food first."

"In addition, Chief Du is the general you brought out and is also your subordinate. He will definitely listen to your arrangements. We currently have more than 3,000 troops. After another hour, we can still gather one or two thousand people.

"

"Conservative estimates suggest that our troop strength can be restored to around 5,000."

"At this time, Chief Du will be here just in time."

Lao Gao looked confident and said: "As long as Du Chang comes, we will still have about 10,000 people. When we break through the county tonight, who dares to say that you were defeated? By then, you can say that you did it on purpose.

The reason for the defeat was to test the situation in Zhending County."

Zhang Yan suddenly laughed, patted Lao Gao on the shoulder, and said: "Lao Gao, your plan is very good. It's settled. You immediately arrange for someone to inform Chief Du. We will attack Zhending County at night tonight.

"

"I humble my duty and obey my orders."

Lao Gao agreed and made arrangements quickly.

The Montenegro Army quickly reorganized.

Zhang Yan has been entrenched in Heishan for many years, and the soldiers under his command are all bandits. However, Zhang Yan has clear rewards and punishments and has a certain prestige. Therefore, under Zhang Yan's reorganization, the fled Heishan army quickly returned to regroup.

In the evening, Du Chang came with his people.

Du Chang was strong and strong. He came to Zhang Yan's side, clasped his fists and said: "Chief, I have brought more than 5,000 people with me. I dare to say a word, you are too kind, thinking that Zhending County is my hometown."

, has been unwilling to storm Zhending County and start killing people. The people in Zhending County should have been killed long ago."

Zhang Yan nodded and said in a deep voice: "The task of attacking the fortified city tonight is left to you. You are responsible for destroying the city."

"no problem."

Du Chang answered directly.

Although it is more difficult to break the city, the benefits obtained after breaking the city are also the first to be enjoyed.

In this regard, Zhang Yan has always made clear rewards and punishments, so the Black Mountain Army is willing to respect Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan, with Du Chang by his side, continued to rectify the soldiers, and after dark, the army set off towards Zhending County.

Zhang Yan and Du Chang were still riding horses.

The team moved quickly.

Because the army had already informed them of the city’s destruction and allowed the soldiers to slaughter and loot. All the soldiers of the Montenegrin Army were howling, their eyes were shining, and their fighting spirit was high, unlike in the daytime.

In fact, this is the common trait of most thieves or yellow turban thieves.

Only by breaking into the city and looting can the fighting spirit be boosted.

As long as the soldiers are allowed to rob, the team will have fighting spirit and can burst out with tyrannical fighting power.

The army carried torches and hurried on quickly.

When approaching Luoyanpo, Zhang Yan and Du Chang entered the bamboo forest without any hesitation. After all, this area was originally a bamboo forest area, and there were not many troops in Zhending County. Whether Zhang Yan or Du

Even the commander did not think that anyone from Zhending County would dare to come out to fight.

Everyone entered the bamboo forest.

Zhang Yan continued on her way on horseback, looking back at the burning torches, then looking in the direction of Zhending County, and said: "Chang Du, there are some powerful people in Zhending County who killed Wang Danghe."

Sun Qing, I want to capture these people alive and then take revenge."

Du Chang confidently said: "Don't worry, I promise to complete the task."

Zhang Yan gritted her teeth and said again: "This time, I want to let Zhending County..."

"call out!"

Suddenly, a sharp sound broke through the air.

broke the silence.

"Boom! Boom!!"

Immediately afterwards, a dense sound of breaking through the air was heard. In the bamboo forest in front, and even in the bamboo forest on the left and right sides of the road, there were clusters of firelights flying up, and burning rockets were fired one after another.

"Enemy attack, be on alert!"

Zhang Yan suddenly shouted loudly.

He looked at the clusters of rockets that rose up around them and shrouded them, and he felt a deep chill in his heart. This time when he came to attack Zhending County, he encountered an ambush halfway. It was obviously from Zhending County.

Calculation.

Bows and arrows flew through the air and landed among Zhang Yan's crowd in an instant.

Phew! Phew!

Bows and arrows shot into the crowd of Montenegrin soldiers, and screams suddenly broke out.

The moment the rocket failed to hit the ground, the fire ignited the dry bamboo leaves on the ground. Even on both sides of the road in this area, after the rocket fell, the burning bamboo leaves scurried around like fire snakes, very fast

, in a short period of time, it ignited the surrounding bamboo leaves and bamboo forests.

All around the Black Mountain Army, fires were burning.

The Montenegrin Army fell into a sea of ​​fire.

Fire attack!

Such an idea came to Zhang Yan's mind. To achieve such an effect, tung oil must be arranged in advance so that fire can be ignited everywhere on the ground, so that the fire can burn so quickly.
