The three countries are very nuclear

Chapter 510 Zhang Yan: Don't Come Over!
The Taihang Mountains stretch for thousands of miles, running through the entire Bingzhou and Jizhou, which can be described as a natural and huge barrier.In such a huge mountain range, many valleys and hills are naturally formed, and there are even one or two small plains.

During the Zhongping period, taking advantage of the Yellow Turban Uprising, Zhang Yan, a wanderer from Zhending Street and a well-known local ranger, took the opportunity to lead the bravery of the village to revolt, and moved to the valley. When he returned to his hometown Zhen, he had more than ten thousand soldiers under his command.

Coincidentally, Zhang Niujiao, a native of Boling, also rose up and fought in all directions.Seeing the situation, Zhang Yan took the initiative to find it, joined forces with Zhang Niujiao, and elected Zhang Niujiao as his commander, commanding nearly 3 people.

When the two men joined forces to attack Yingtao County, Zhang Niujiao took the lead, but was unfortunately shot by a stray arrow and died, so his subordinates elected Zhang Yan as the commander.

Zhang Yan was not ambiguous. Although he became the leader, he changed his surname to Zhang to show that he did not forget Zhang Niujiao.He even regarded Zhang Niujiao's adopted son Zhang Baiqi as his own, and promoted him to the position of the second commander of the Black Mountain Army.

Well, although it was burned by Zhao Yun later...

Later, Zhang Yan knew that it was difficult to defeat the imperial army, so he took the initiative to send envoys to Luoyang to meet the emperor.

At that time, the whole Han Dynasty was full of thieves, and Emperor Ling was unable to conquer them all. Seeing Zhang Yan's surrender, he waved his sleeves and recruited him to safety.At the same time, he was given the official position of General Zhonglang, who was in trouble, and allowed him to collect taxes from the valleys north of the Yellow River for military use, and to recommend Xiaolian to the imperial court every year.

In this way, Zhang Yan transformed from a rebel into a legitimate Han official.

After this incident, it can be seen that Zhang Yan is quite far-sighted.

Then... But in just two years, Zhang Yan's stable life hadn't passed long before he encountered the biggest nightmare of his life.

That's right, his nightmare is the Marquis of Anxi County, Xuzhou Supervisor, Taiwei's Chief History, in charge of all affairs in Xuzhou, the closed disciple of the great Confucian Zheng Kangcheng, Xun Shuang's virtuous son-in-law, and Xun You's uncle. Talented Lin Chao, Lin Zichu!

Among other things, these titles alone are enough to scare away a large number of people.

Zhang Yan's emotions towards Lin Chao are very complicated. From the initial resentment, to the later hatred, and then to the later fear, it has become a little numb now...

As Lin Chao's status gradually rose to the point where Zhang Yan could not catch up, the hatred and fear in his heart had faded away.

For the rest, there are three points of gratitude, and three points of fear, mixed with four points of admiration.

How should I put it, Zhang Yan thought that Lin Zichu was merciful to his subordinates during the Zhongshan battle a few years ago, otherwise he would not have survived to this day.Regarding this point, just look at his opponents of Lin Zichu in these years.

Which one is not decapitated, which one is not the dead bones in the grave, which one is not ruined!

But after the end of last year's hunting for Dong, Lin Chao beat Zhang Yan again, telling him to stay obediently behind Jizhou, waiting for his call.

Lin Jianjun had already made it clear at the time that when we meet next time, I hope Xiao Zhang will give you an answer, whether to surrender or not.

Surrender without losing the title of marquis and general.

If you don't surrender, you know what will happen...

For Lin Changshi's explicit statement, Zhang Yan felt a headache.

Naturally, he didn't dare to reject Lin Chao, but fortunately, Lin Chao didn't ask him to express his opinion on the spot, so he was muddling through.

However, Zhang Yan also heard the news that Cao Yuan jointly launched a war against Xuzhou.Even Yuan Shao sent envoys here a few days ago to persuade Zhang Yan to join the alliance and send troops to attack Xuzhou together.

Of course Zhang Yan didn't dare to agree, but she didn't want to offend Yuan Shao, so she excused herself to think about it.Even though the door was closed to thank the guests, no one was seen.

Fight whatever you like, don't involve me!
This is Zhang Yan's only thought at the moment.

But the tree wanted to be quiet but the wind kept blowing, and a big battle was about to start. How could Lin Chao forget about him, General Zhang, so he had a trial match. This time, under the protection of Zhang Xi, he traveled thousands of miles to visit.

When the soldiers told Zhang Yan the news of the trial match's visit, Zhang Yan still kept a closed door and didn't see any visitors. It just happened that he took in another concubine recently.

Without permission, the soldiers did not dare to enter the door, so they had to shout loudly outside the door.

Hearing this, Zhang Yan, who was at a critical moment, immediately yelled: "Didn't you say that, no visitor, let him go!"

"General, here is..."

"No matter who it is, so-and-so will disappear!"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhang Yan's rough roar.

After hesitating for a moment outside, the soldiers still plucked up their courage and shouted: "General, someone said that his name is Shen Zhengnan, and he was ordered by Lin Zichu to come to see the general..."

This time the soldier still couldn't finish his sentence, because there was already a thud, followed by a woman's exclamation.

"General, what's wrong with you!"

The little concubine Zhang Yan said in horror.

Just now Zhang Yan was still in high spirits, but when he heard the word 'Lin Zichu', he immediately fell on the bed, and only then did he make a sound.

But in front of Lin Chao's envoy, these are trivial matters.

Zhang Yan quickly got up from the bed, and ran outside before she could get dressed.

Damn Lin Zichu knew that he would not let someone go easily, so he sent someone here.

A certain party can have a camera to act, so we must not annoy this person and give Lin Zichu an excuse to clean himself up.

Seeing Zhang Yan coming out in disheveled clothes, the guards immediately showed shock on their faces.

No matter how urgent the matter is, it won't delay you getting dressed, General.

Besides, didn't you say you didn't see anyone!

"Where is Laishi now?"

Zhang Yan straightened her clothes and asked questions again and again.

The soldier replied: "General, I don't know if the general is going to meet this person, so I asked him to wait outside the gate of the mansion..."

Snapped!
Before the words fell, the soldier had already received a big mouth.

Zhang Yan said angrily: "The honored guest is here, how dare you be so negligent! Hurry up and invite the honored guest to take the seat, and a certain one will come later, go quickly!"

"As ordered!"

The soldiers didn't dare to say any more, so they turned around and left.

Zhang Yan also began to quickly arrange her clothes, fearing that the judge would be in a hurry, so she went back to report to Lin Chao that she treated him poorly.

If this is the case, then it may be Lin Zichu himself who will visit next time.

"No, I have to prepare some treasures to bribe this person, otherwise Lin Zichu will probably make use of it..."

In the courtyard, Zhang Yan frowned and whispered to herself.

……

Outside the mansion, the judge who came to the mission this time looked at the closed mansion door in front of him, and also frowned.

Came all the way here, but was turned away.

How should I put it, in fact, the audition is not surprising.

After all, now is the critical moment for Cao Yuan to join forces to start a war against Xuzhou. As a prince, Zhang Yan naturally does not want to be involved in the flames of war, and it is normal to have concerns.

But what the judge couldn't understand was Lin Chao's attitude
To be precise, it was Lin Chao's unreasonable attitude.

Before leaving, Lin Chao had explained that he must not be polite to Zhang Yan when he goes there, and just treat him as his own grandson. If Brother Zhengnan is happy, it's okay to go up and slap him a few times.

It was like a joke, but Lin Chao was very serious when he said it.

So no matter what the trial match can't figure it out... Right now, you, Lin Zichu, have something to ask from someone, and the other party is a prince at any rate, why are you so arrogant.

So much so that there was an illusion in the trial match that Lin Chao wanted to use Zhang Yan's hand to get rid of himself...

After arriving in Shexian County, as expected, he was turned away.As a result, the judge felt more and more that Lin Chao was bragging.

If you Lin Zichu really had such a big face, I wouldn't be waiting outside the door.

Zhang He asked, "Sir, what should we do now?"

The judge sighed softly: "The big battle is coming, Zhang Yan must have some concerns, and it's normal not to want to see us. Let's go, and find a place to stay, and let someone slowly figure it out."

This analysis is reasonable, and Zhang Yun nodded in conviction.

But just as the two were about to turn around and leave, the door suddenly opened.

The soldier who had treated the two of them coldly just now had an incomparably warm smile on his face, he stretched out his hand and saluted and said, "Mr. Shen, my general has an invitation, and invite you to follow the villain!"

The soldier's attitude of being arrogant and respectful really surprised the examiner, and even made him slightly taken aback.

Although he didn't know, he went in, but it was always a good thing to be able to enter the door, so he immediately walked in under the welcome of his own soldiers.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Zhang Yan, who had already tidied up his clothes, strode forward to meet him, with a smile even brighter than that of the guards at the door.

"Haha, someone said why there were magpies chirping on the branches this morning. It turned out that there was a distinguished guest."

Just when the examiner was about to salute, Zhang Yan took the lead in saluting, and bent down very low, and at the same time said with a smile: "Dare to ask, Mr. Gao's name?"

The examiner bowed his hands and returned the salute: "In the south of the lower Jizhou, it is really presumptuous to visit this time. I hope the general will not be offended!"

Zhang Yan smiled even more happily: "Mr.'s visit is a great event, how can I be so strange, I invite you to sit inside, and I have ordered my servants to prepare a banquet to cleanse my husband."

Alas, if everyone in Xuzhou is as easy-talking as Mr. Shen, then I don't have to worry about it.

Zhang Yan thought to herself.

After entering, Zhang Yan asked the judge to take a seat, but the judge declined.

Then, before the banquet started, Zhang Yan asked about the purpose of the trial match.

"I heard that Mr. Lin came here under the orders of Lin Changshi. I don't know what orders Chang Shi has?"

Hearing this, the trial match couldn't help being stunned.

Even though he had prepared countless rhetoric, he never expected Zhang Yan to be so direct.

At this critical moment, it stands to reason that even if Zhang Yan didn't want to offend Xu Zhou, he should treat him well, but he kept his mouth shut about the business and kept refusing.

But... why does he seem to be in a hurry than himself?
Is it true that as Lin Zichu said, this guy has been tamed by him long ago?

Yes or no, you will know with a test.

Thinking about it, the examiner cupped his hands at Zhang Yan and said: "General Mingjian, this time is indeed ordered by Lin Zi... Lin Changshi. Lin Changshi originally wanted to visit the door in person, but he was busy with business, so he had to order Somebody came to inform the general."

Business is busy!

Zhang Yan was secretly happy because he didn't have to face Lin Chao directly, but with a serious expression on his face, he quickly stood up and bowed his hands: "Sir, what teachings does Lin Changshi have, Yan is willing to listen to it!"

Trial: ? ? ?
Good guy, so respectful!

I know, I understand that you are a prince.

I don't know, I thought you were his Lin Zichu's slave!

Although the judge didn't know why Zhang Yan was so respectful to Lin Chao, he was greatly shocked.

After hesitating for a while, the judge said quietly again: "General Zhang, Lin Changshi ordered someone to come here to tell the general a story."

Zhang Yan: ...

Damn Lin Zichu, what was supposed to come has finally come!

　Two updates will be issued in succession, and will be revised and polished later.
