As Cao Ang finished speaking, everyone realized that there was indeed no one to stop the Xianbei army.

Especially according to intelligence, the Xianbei army has been divided into three groups, preparing to rush into Bingzhou and rob the people of Bingzhou.

Cao Ang has already mastered the intelligence of these three groups. Now he plans to let Ding Yuan lead his Bingzhou army to resist the Xianbei attack.

Just when Cao Ang was about to send someone to deliver the order to Ding Yuan, Guo Jia stood up and said, "Young General, I have a plan to withstand the three-way offensive of the Xianbei people."

When Cao Ang saw this, he smiled and said to Guo Jia: "If Fengxiao has any plans, just tell him."

When Guo Jia heard the words, he didn't hide them. He directly spoke out all his thoughts.

"Major General, in the previous battle in Jizhou, didn't you pacify the Black Mountain bandits? Now they have surrendered to you, but before they surrendered, they helped Zhou commit crimes. Let Zhang Yan do this to resist the Xianbei army."

"As for the reason for mobilizing Zhang Yan and other Black Mountain bandits, it is to give Zhang Yan an opportunity that balances the merits and demerits. I hope he can seize it."

After hearing Guo Jia's words, Cao Ang suddenly understood: "Feng Xiao's move is wonderful! Let Zhang Yan come with the Black Mountain Army. This can solve the urgent need."

"Secondly, this can also weaken the power of Zhang Yan's Black Mountain Army, making it easier to disband the ragtag group of refugees in the future! This is really a plan to kill two birds with one stone!"

After listening to Cao Ang's analysis, Guo Jia smiled and nodded: "The one who knows me is the young general."

With Guo Jia's reminder, Cao Ang immediately sent people to Julu to mobilize Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan was instantly overjoyed after receiving the news from Cao Ang.

Long before Zhang Yan took up the post of county magistrate in Julu, he thought it was a good job, powerful and decent.

Unexpectedly, after becoming the county magistrate, I found that this position was a vacant position.

Daily government affairs in Julu County are handled by the county guard, while military affairs are handled by the county lieutenant.

He is such a low-ranking county magistrate, and he really can't get involved in anything.

Sometimes he even felt that if he didn't have these hundreds of thousands of Montenegrin troops in his hands, he would probably be dead a long time ago.

After spending so long in Julu County, he wanted to escape from here.

If he wasn't afraid that Cao Ang would cause trouble for him, he would have run away with him long ago.

Fortunately, Zhang Yan saw the messenger sent by Cao Ang and received a letter.

The letter clearly told Zhang Yan to bring people to Wuyuan County in Bingzhou to give him a chance to atone for his crimes.

After Zhang Yan learned the news, she was so grateful.

I saw Zhang Yan saying to the messengers: "Brother, thank you for your hard work. You must be very tired from traveling all the way. Come, I will have someone take you to have a rest and relax."

When the messenger saw Zhang Yan being so polite, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

After all, he was just an ordinary cavalry member of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, and this time when he came to deliver the message, he did not ride his own war horse, but an ordinary horse, traveling lightly and simply.

Now when he saw Zhang Yan being so polite, he felt that it was a scam.

So the messenger did not accept Zhang Yan's kindness, but said: "General Zhang Yan, the war ahead is urgent. Those Xianbei troops will enter Bingzhou and plunder the people of Bingzhou who knows when." "If so. We wasted time in Julu, delayed the opportunity to fight, and made the Major General angry. At that time, I am afraid that not only will I lose my head, General Zhang Yan will also be implicated!"

When Zhang Yan heard this, the smile on her face disappeared. She bowed solemnly to the messenger and thanked him from the bottom of her heart.

"Thanks for the reminder, brother. If you hadn't woken me up, I might have really delayed the fight. By then, I might have lost my head!"

After saying this, Zhang Yan asked the messenger to take a brief rest. He went to say hello to the county guard first.

After all, he is the magistrate of Julu, and the magistrate is his immediate superior. He is going to lead his troops to leave, so he naturally needs to explain.

After the Julu County Sheriff took a look at Cao Ang's autographed letter in Zhang Yan's hand, he let him go.

After all, the seal of the Hussars General and Cao Ang's own seal on the letter cannot be faked.

After getting the governor's consent, Zhang Yan hurriedly mobilized his troops and generals, set off overnight, and rushed towards Bingzhou without stopping.

A few days later, Zhang Yan stationed the Black Mountain Army at Wuquan.

And he himself came to Wuyuan in person to meet Cao Ang.

In Wuyuan County, inside Cao Ang's tent, Zhang Yan stood respectfully in front of Cao Ang.

"The last general, Zhang Yan, pays homage to the young general."

Seeing this, Cao Ang waved his hand to Zhang Yan: "Get up, as long as you get things done, you are better than anything else!"

When Zhang Yan heard this, she quickly said: "Major General, please rest assured, I will never live up to your expectations. This time, I will lead the Black Mountain Army to atone for my sins!"

"Okay, general, I'll be waiting for your success here." Cao Ang waved his hand.

Zhang Yan heard this and wanted to ask about the food and grass, but he still hesitated.

However, the issue of food and grass was indeed a top priority. He heard that Xu You was also coming on this trip, so he planned to meet Xu You first and ask him to help him ask about the food and grass.

After all, strictly speaking, Xu You defected to Cao Ang first and led Cao's army to burn the food and grass of their Black Mountain Army and Yuan Shao's coalition forces. That was a bit sorry for them.

Just when Zhang Yan was about to go find Xu You, Cao Ang also saw what was going on in his mind.

So Cao Ang smiled lightly and asked Zhang Yan: "Zhang Yan, do you want to ask me something?"

"Ah?" Zhang Yan was stunned when she heard this, thinking that this was all seen?
Then, Zhang Yan hurriedly waved her hands and denied, "No, no, the general has nothing to ask the young general."

When Cao Ang heard this, he smiled lightly and said, "Stop making excuses. I know you want to ask me about your Montenegrin army's food and grass."

"Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from the Major General." Zhang Yan scratched her head in embarrassment.

Seeing this, Cao Ang continued to ask: "How many people did you bring on this trip?"

"Reporting to the Major General, I only have 15 capable Montenegrin troops in my hands now." Zhang Yan responded while facing his scalp.

You know, before he claimed to have one million Montenegrin troops, but now he only has 15 left. This gap is indeed quite big. (End of chapter)
