The Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms: The Evil God Arrives

Chapter 346 Zhang Yan: Have I become a command transfer station?
“Huh, should I say he is worthy of being Yan Liang? This divine will is almost catching up with the Second Master.” Yang Ji wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead.

Li Tiao was pulling the weeds in front of him out of boredom. Yan Liang's divine will was indeed brilliant, and he was indeed about to catch up with Guan Yu.

However, while Yan Liang was constantly moving forward trying to catch up with Guan Yu, Guan Yu was also making continuous progress. When Yan Liang seemed to have caught up with Guan Yu, Guan Yu had already taken the next step.

One step ahead, every step ahead.

"By the way, General, Zhang Yan asked me for a favor before I left." Li Tiao, who was leading the way, suddenly remembered something, a very important thing.

"The Black Mountain Yellow Turbans seem to be running out of food." Li Tiao felt a little panicked. Could it be that the Black Mountain Yellow Turbans would starve to death just because he forgot to tell Yang Ji about this?
Yang Ji turned his head and glanced at Li Tiao's expression. Although the expression on his face was a little panicked, it was just panic. There was no guilt at all, so it was probably not a big problem.

"Did Zhang Yan tell you directly, or did he hint at your food shortage?" Yang Ji asked directly.

"It's a hint." Li Tiao said quickly. As soon as Zhang Yan opened her mouth, he knew what Zhang Yan was talking about.

"It's a hint." Yang Ji nodded, "Then it's not a big problem. Their food should be able to last for a while." Yang Ji made a direct judgment.

"If the Black Mountain Yellow Turbans are really short of food, they won't hint at it. They will directly ask you if you can help them snatch some from Yan Liang's camp." Yang Ji added.

Li Tiao thought about it and decided that given the character of the Yellow Turbans, this was indeed the case. If they were really starving to death, they would definitely charge at Yan Liang's camp. They would die anyway, so they might as well try to grab some food.

"What if they really can't charge?" Li Tiao suddenly said. After all, with the strength of Yan Liang's troops, this possibility is not impossible to happen, and the possibility is not low.

"If we can't charge, then we can only wait to die." Yang Ji shrugged. However, Yang Ji didn't believe that Zhang Yan would watch the Black Mountain Yellow Turban brothers starve to death.

Regardless of whether he accepts Yuan Shao's amnesty or directly confronts Yuan Shao, Zhang Yan will try his best to keep the Black Mountain Yellow Turbans alive. This is his awareness as a leader.

"Let's go. Don't waste time here. Let's finish the work early." Yang Ji walked past Li Tiao.

Li Tiao opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say to defend himself. Wasn't it Yang Ji himself who stopped and looked back just now?

Li Tiao, who didn't know how to refute, could only follow Yang Ji's footsteps in silence. At this moment, he regretted not learning some hermaphroditic sentences from the literacy teacher.

In fact, facing this situation, what Li Tiao needs is not to refute, but to scold back directly. You haven't done anything wrong, why should you argue?

When you pick up his words, you have already fallen into the trap designed for you.

……

"General, this is Zhang Yan, the leader of the Black Mountain Yellow Turbans." Li Tiao introduced to Yang Ji.

"Chief, this is General Yang Ji of Andong under the command of General Zhendong." Li Tiao introduced to Zhang Yan.

"Yang Ji meets Chief Zhang Yan." Yang Ji greeted Zhang Yan in a very friendly manner, but did not salute. After all, one was General Anton appointed by the Han court, and the other was the chief of the Yellow Turbans. If they saluted each other, it would feel a bit abstract. It would be better to wait until Zhang Yan was reborn.

"Zhang Yan meets General Anton." Zhang Yan said a little nervously. It was the first time he met a senior official with such a good temper.

Well, before Zhang Yan joined the Yellow Turban Army, the highest-ranking official he met was a clerk, not an official. After joining the Yellow Turban Army, the officials he met were all guys who had to maintain respect for Zhang Yan on the surface.

However, those people's respect and awe for Zhang Yan and his Yellow Turban Army were all superficial, and who knows what they were cursing in their hearts.

This was the first time Zhang Yan met a Han court official like Yang Ji who kept a certain distance but did not look down on him at all.

Yang Ji was completely different from the Han court officials Zhang Yan had met before, even the subordinates of Yuan Shao who had come to recruit the Black Mountain Yellow Turbans a few days ago.

All Zhang Yan could sense from those officials was a constant stream of malice and a disdain for them as non-human beings.

Of course, perhaps it was because the officials Zhang Yan had met before were all from aristocratic families, and not treating the people as human beings was the correct political approach of most of the aristocratic families.

In the eyes of most of the aristocratic families today, what are the common people? Only the aristocratic families like them who have inherited the surnames, knowledge, and wisdom of their ancestors are the common people.

As for those people at the bottom with surnames, I don’t know, but they are not ordinary people.

Zhang Yan could sense that although Yang Ji deliberately kept a distance from them, he really treated them as human beings.

After becoming the leader of the Yellow Turbans, Zhang Yan discovered that he could "see" many "things" that he could not see before.

Zhang Yan didn’t know whether the two leaders in front of him had the same ability, but Zhang Yan didn’t care.

What Zhang Yan really cares about is what such ability can bring to the Black Mountain Yellow Turbans?
The reason why Zhang Yan rejected Yuan Shao's offer of amnesty was not only because of the way the Yellow Turbans of Qingzhou were treated in Qingzhou, but also because Yuan Shao's side had deep contempt and disdain for these peasants who had risen up in rebellion.

Was it really out of pity or something else that Yuan Shao's side thought of recruiting the Black Mountain Yellow Turbans?

No, they just felt that their troops were not enough because they could not squeeze out more troops from Jizhou to counter the pincer attack from Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan.

If it weren't for the alliance between Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan, Yuan Shao's side would never have thought of recruiting the Black Mountain Yellow Turbans.

All they could think of was to wipe out the enemy, completely and thoroughly.

Only in this way would Yuan Shao believe that the surrendered Yellow Turbans would not raise the banner of rebellion again for any other reason.

After all, Liu Bei accepted all of the Yellow Turbans of Qingzhou. Who knows what Liu Bei would do with the help of the Yellow Turbans of Qingzhou to endanger Yuan Shao's rule.

Yuan Shao, who was as suspicious as Cao Cao, could never accept such a risk. Even Yuan Shao, who had turned on his wise and brave mode when the situation was unfavorable, could not accept it.

Or we can say that when Yuan Shao was facing a disadvantage, his courage, ability, and decisiveness increased significantly, and his suspicious character also increased. After all, as his ability increased, his brain became better, and when his brain became better, he thought more, so how could he not be suspicious?

The reason why Yuan Shao can now behave so wisely and bravely is simply because his rapidly improved qualities in other aspects have suppressed his suspicious character.

Zhang Yan had never met Liu Bei, so he didn't know what kind of person Liu Bei was, or whether he was the same benevolent prince as rumored.

Because Zhang Yan had never seen Liu Bei in person, he was skeptical about Liu Bei's benevolence. Over the years, Zhang Yan had also met many people who appeared to be benevolent but did many shady things behind the scenes.

The reason why Zhang Yan now chooses to believe in Liu Bei’s benevolence is because the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou are really living well under Liu Bei’s rule.

The feedback from the Yellow Turban Will Fragment is correct.

"What does the leader think about the upcoming war?" Yang Ji said straight to the point. He knew that what the Black Mountain Yellow Turbans needed was nothing else but to break through the Jizhou blockade and go to Qingzhou to reunite with their former Yellow Turban brothers there.

"I wonder how the general will deal with the vanguard of the death squad that Li Tiao mentioned?" Zhang Yan also understood that Yang Ji did not want to waste time, so he directly asked about the biggest obstacle for the Black Mountain and Yellow Turbans to break through the blockade of Jizhou.

"The vanguard of death?" Yang Ji laughed. A vanguard of death wanted to stop him. Wasn't Ju Yi a bit too powerful?
"Don't worry, the Xiandeng Death Squad is not an obstacle to us. If they insist on stopping us, I don't mind giving them a ride. Maybe Zhang Jue will be happy to see them."

"Huh?" Zhang Yan was stunned for a moment, hesitating and saying, "But, but, that is..."

Yang Ji interrupted Zhang Yan's hesitation and said, "I know what you want to say. Are the Xiandeng Death Soldiers and the Yellow Turban Warriors of your Yellow Turban Army the same level of the strongest legion? I asked Li Tiao to tell you this news."

Zhang Yan glanced at Yang Ji with a complicated expression, and said dejectedly: "The Yellow Turban Warrior has passed away along with General Tian Gong."

"It's just the military spirit. It can't stop us from rushing towards Qingzhou." Yang Ji shook his head and said.

Yang Ji didn't take Zhang Yan's words seriously. He certainly knew what Zhang Yan meant. Wasn't it just to remind him that the Black Mountain Yellow Turbans did not have a legion that could compete with the vanguard death squad at that time?

However, does Yang Ji need a legion to match the first-line death squad in order to stop the first-line death squad?
Not required.

The commander of a large army with a hundred thousand soldiers under his command can beat the strongest legion in the world. The Legion of Miracles is qualified to compete with the commander of a large army with a large army under his command.

But, are the first wave of death soldiers the miracle army?
If not, it would be just like that in the eyes of Yang Ji who controls a large army. In other words, in the eyes of any commander of a large army, the military soul or the three talents are just a hard nut to crack. There are many ways to restrict them and prevent them from exerting their due combat effectiveness.

Looking at Yang Ji, who didn't care about the vanguard soldiers, Zhang Yan couldn't help but start to wonder in his heart, is this guy reliable? Could it be that he hired a substitute to fight in the previous battles of Yanzhou and Jie Bridge?
"Big leader." Li Tiao pulled Zhang Yan's clothes and whispered, "When the general forced Yuan Shao to retreat in the Battle of Jie Bridge, he fought against the first batch of death soldiers led by Ju Yi."

"..." Zhang Yan was silent for a moment, then whispered to Li Tiao: "Brother Li Tiao, you didn't tell me earlier, and made me worry for nothing."

"?" Li Tiao couldn't help but staring when he heard Zhang Yan's words. I've seen people who are cowardly, but I've never seen someone as cowardly as you.

Unfortunately, after Zhang Yan finished speaking, he continued to talk to Yang Ji: "General Yang, since the first batch of death soldiers is not a problem, then Yan Liang's troops have 50,000 troops. How do you plan to solve it?"

Zhang Yan's actions made Li Tiao's scalp tingle. Is this guy so shameless? Li Tiao couldn't help but look at Bai Rao and others beside him.

Facing Li Tiao's gaze, Bai Rao coughed lightly, then looked up at the sky. The fact that Zhang Yan was thick-skinned had nothing to do with them.

The reason why Zhang Yan was able to become the leader of the Black Mountain Yellow Turbans was not only because of his ability, but also because of his shamelessness.

"How many available troops can the Black Mountain Yellow Turbans mobilize?" Yang Ji asked Zhang Yan. Yang Ji did not bring any troops with him, so of course he asked Zhang Yan to send out the troops.

"I wonder how many troops General Yang needs to break through all the blockades in Jizhou?" Since Yang Ji took the initiative to offer to lead the troops, Zhang Yan would of course meet Yang Ji's requirements.

In other words, Zhang Yan was happy to let Yang Ji lead the Black Mountain Yellow Turban army. Before Xiandeng arrived, Zhang Yan was still a little confident that he could rush out of Jizhou and enter Qingzhou.

However, after the vanguard of death squads arrived, Zhang Yan's intuition told him that if he wanted to save the Black Mountain Yellow Turban brothers to the greatest extent, it would be best to hand over the command to Yang Ji.

Moreover, not only was Zhang Yan's intuition telling him, even the fragments of the Yellow Turbans' will on Zhang Yan's body were telling Zhang Yan to hand over the army to Yang Ji for command. Only in this way could the Black Mountain Yellow Turbans in the Taihang Mountains be preserved to the greatest extent.

Yang Ji glanced at Zhang Yan and narrowed his eyes slightly. Why does the thing on this guy look so familiar?
[It seems to be somewhat different from what is entrusted to Guan Hai and Zang Ba. Could it be that the fragments of the Yellow Turban will are also divided by region? ] Yang Ji couldn't help but mutter to himself.

[Forget it, why bother with so much, just focus on the matter at hand. ]

"Troops?" Yang Ji pondered for a moment. "Before that, I need to confirm one thing from you. How do you plan to place those who are not participating in the battle?"

"How to relocate those who do not participate in the battle?" Zhang Yan was stunned for a moment and wondered why Yang Ji mentioned this group of people.

"Of course, let the generals lead their own troops and follow behind you, General." Zhang Yan said as a matter of course. Does Yang Ji still want to leave in batches?

This is not impossible, but it would be a great test for Yang Ji's guerrilla ability. After all, if they break out in batches, Yang Ji will definitely be the one commanding the battle.

However, Zhang Yan obviously misunderstood Yang Ji's meaning. How could Yang Ji, who was so averse to trouble, choose to break out in batches?

"Let the leaders of each tribe lead the Yellow Turbans and follow behind? That would be a good plan." Yang Ji nodded and agreed to Zhang Yan's plan.

"Ah?" Zhang Yan's eyes were a little confused, and he didn't know what to say for a moment. Was he being used as a tool?

"Okay, let's do this. I need 100,000 troops to serve as the vanguard, and the rest of the troops will be commanded by you and the other generals." Yang Ji mentioned 100,000 troops.

"Oh, by the way, if possible, Big Leader, please hand over your people to other commanders for command, and come here to serve as a command transfer station. Even if it is a scattered command, there must be a unified command."
