"Thank you for your gift, I will be frightened."

Zhang Yan's words express her true feelings.

The moment before, his life was full of desolation, but the moment later, he was floating like a cloud and a fog. Under the stimulation of such great sorrow and joy, he was really worried and terrified, and all kinds of tastes were in his heart.

"No need to be polite, get up quickly. The battle is in full swing, so we can't wait to waste too much time."

Li Li nodded slightly, raised his hand to signal Zhang Yan to get on the horse, and then said in a unquestionable tone: "Due to the deviation before, our soldiers do not know that the Black Mountain Army has taken over to me, and it is time for a war to issue orders for the time being. Therefore, all infantry and cavalry of the Black Mountain Army gathered under the commander's flag and temporarily included in the central army to fight with me until the end of the war. Anyone dared to be afraid, or took a step back without permission without obtaining the order, and immediately won't forgive me!"

"Uh,, No, I will obey the order, and I will immediately reorganize the army and go to war with the lord!" Zhang Yan was surprised when he heard the sound, and after hesitating for a moment, he respectfully took the order and left.

Watching Zhang Yan leave by taking the horse, Li Li smiled indifferently and turned to Yuan Shao's central army in a fierce battle. However, he saw that his cavalry had already broken through the front line and was attacking Yuan Shao's central army's general flag.

At this time, it was already bright moon in the sky, with evening breeze and a hint of coldness quietly coming.

"After Zhang Yan first entered the army, the lord gave him the position of General of the Central Army and was appointed as a marquis. It can be said that he has reached the sky in one step. General Shu Mo is stupid, and he really can't see what this person is outstanding, and it is worth the lord's attention to him?" Li Zhi, who stopped behind Li Li, suddenly asked in a low voice.

Li Li shook his head slightly when he heard the sound and said with a smile: "It seems that Zicheng is still hostile to Zhang Yan! If so, Zicheng doesn't have to do this. Zhang Yan is born in a humble and has been the leader of the Heishan Army for many years. He is inevitably a bit arrogant and reckless in his habits of bandits, and it is inevitable that he will speak rudely. Don't talk about Zhang Yan, even Huan Fei, Gan Ning, He Yi and He Man were like this at the beginning. They were dirty and cursed, and their unruly temperament was even better than Zhang Yan. But now, when you look at them, they are all frank, generous, strong and strong men, brave and good at fighting. They don't frown when they hold a big knife on their necks, they are all fierce and fierce generals on the battlefield of our Xiliang Army."

After a brief tone, Li Li changed his tone and laughed: "Zicheng must not underestimate Zhang Yan. Don't look down on him, but he is a person with real skills and calm behavior. This person is quite knowledgeable and meticulous. Although he is a rioter, he is also extremely extraordinary and has extraordinary features that ordinary people cannot reach.

Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, more than 80% of the Yellow Turban Rebellion have been wiped out by various princes one after another. Or they have been recruited and surrendered. However, the Heishan Army has stood still and has not fallen. Instead, its power has become increasingly powerful, gathering hundreds of thousands of people, and is known as one million to the outside world. Its sphere of influence is spread across the four prefectures of Jili, You, and has caused trouble in Jizhou. As a result, Yuan Shao led his troops to encircle and suppress the enemy repeatedly, but he was repeatedly frustrated and futile. He still cannot help the Heishan Army. With this ability alone, Zhang Yan has extraordinary abilities. He is brave and scheming, and cannot be underestimated.

In addition, Zicheng may not know that Zhang Yan and Zilong are fellow villagers. They grew up together since childhood and are actually friends with the generals. It is said that Zhang Yan was originally named Chu Yan. He has been practicing martial arts since childhood. He is as light as a swallow. He is very skilled. He flies over the eaves and walks on the walls like walking on flat ground, so he is called "Flying Yan". He was able to stand out among the many leaders of the Yellow Turban Thief, unify the bandits of various villages in Heishan, and was elected as the leader. It can be seen that he has quite a few methods and can be called a general. For such brave and resourceful people, I, Li Li, have never been too much. The more the better, the better!

What's more, he has tens of thousands of war cavalry under his command, and there are hundreds of thousands of old, young, women and children in the village. In this great battle, this is a huge wealth, with great potential and unlimited future. Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to call him a general and a title of marquis with these. Otherwise, how can he appease the Heishan tribes and let them use it for me? Hahaha???”

"Oh?" Li Zhi responded in shock and said thoughtfully: "So that's the case. The lord is wise. However, the lord of the lord and the military advisor Fengxiao before seemed to be??????"

Before Li Zhi finished speaking, Li Li raised his hand and signaled that he would not need to continue. He nodded gently and said, "There are many hidden secrets hidden in the Allied forces that we don't know. These were originally something that Zhang Yan could inquire about, but he missed the opportunity because of his hesitation. Anyone who does something wrong will have to pay the price for it, and Zhang Yan is no exception. Therefore, this is the perfect opportunity for the Black Mountain Army to prove its strength. If you want to get something you have never obtained, you must pay the corresponding price. If the war goes well, that's all; if it doesn't go well, then the loss will fall on the Black Mountain Army, which is the consequence they must bear for their previous mistakes."

After saying that, Li Li waved his hand and signaled that Li Zhi not to say much, because Zhang Yan had already completed the army and rode his horse to come.

"Report to the lord, the Black Mountain Army is ready and let it be arranged by the lord!"

"Well, okay, the Black Mountain Army is indeed well-trained." Li Li nodded and smiled when he raised his hand to signal Zhang Yan not to be polite.

After saying that, Li Li waved his hand to signal Li Zhi, Zhang Yan and his two men led their troops to follow, and immediately drove the Jinniu Beast King through the middle of the Black Mountain cavalry and headed straight for the left wing back formation.

As the King of Jinqiu Beasts stepped forward slowly, Li Li turned his head to look at Zhang Yan and asked while walking: "I wonder how many troops there are in the Black Mountain Army, where are the infantry?"

Zhang Yan replied after hearing the voice: "Lord, the general has 15,000 combat cavalry under his command, and the other 5,000 light cavalry are the cavalry under the tent of Zhang Yang of Hanoi and Sun Ce of Jiangdong. Last night, the general was worried that the five thousand cavalry would mutiny in the battle, so he did not obey the orders, so he secretly removed the generals of his commanders and temporarily replaced them with the generals under the tent this morning. Fortunately, time was tight, and these cavalry did not take the opportunity to cause trouble, so they had to obey the orders of the generals, so the lord did not have to worry that they would turn against each other in the tent.

In addition to the war cavalry, there were nearly 50,000 infantry under the tent of the last general. They were in the rear formation of the central army not far ahead, and formed the rear formation of the central army with two infantry and military formations under Yuan Shao. The entire rear formation totaled 120,000 infantry."

"Okay, that's great." Li Li smiled and nodded. Zhang Yan immediately ordered: "Since that's the case, I ordered you to immediately take your personal soldiers to the infantry formation, and then lead 50,000 infantry to the position where Yuan Shao is located to encircle Yuan Shao. Be sure to trap Yuan Shao before our army's combat cavalry breaks through the rear formation, and never let him run away. In addition, if you can quietly penetrate the Jizhou army, don't rush to fight until you siege Yuan Shao. It's not too late to take action after siege Yuan Shao. If you are discovered by the Jizhou army, you don't have to worry about it. You can just let go of the battle. And I temporarily merged the Heishan cavalry and several thousand Jinxian guards into one army, and personally led the combat cavalry to rush over from the rear formation on the left wing. Following him, I intercepted Yuan Shao. As the saying goes: Capture the king first; as long as you kill Yuan Shao or capture him alive, you will be sure to win this battle!"

"This???" Zhang Yan's expression changed when she heard the sound. She looked at Li Li in surprise and suspicion. She opened her mouth and hesitated for a while, but couldn't speak.

Seeing Zhang Yan's expression was strange, Li Li was stunned and said in surprise: "You are...??? If you have any doubts, you might as well speak out without hesitation."

"No, no, nothing, I'll obey the order!" Seeing that Li Li's expression was not like a fake, his eyes were clear and his expression was calm, Zhang Yan suddenly felt that he was too suspicious and immediately responded quickly. Then he waved his hand and rushed to the Heishan Army camp in the rear formation of the central army.

"He seemed to have noticed it, and he seemed to be disobeying the order just now?" Zhang Yan had just left, and Li Zhi rode his horse close to Li Li and whispered.

Li Li nodded slightly and said softly: "After all, he is the leader of the commander of more than 100,000 Black Mountain Army. He has been through the battlefield for a long time and is well versed in war. He is extremely sensitive to military deployment and has a fast reaction. In addition, even though he had just thought of the reason and understood my true intention of asking him to lead troops to surround Yuan Shao, he did not dare to disobey and still had to lead his troops. At this point, he has no way out and has no choice but to devote himself to me."

Li Zhi was surprised when he heard this: "Why is this? Since Zhang Yan can turn against the lord at the last minute, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not surrender and rebel again, and will turn to the lords' allied forces again. If so, wouldn't we lose a great help in vain?"

"It's too late." Li Li shook his head gently and said in a deep voice: "Since the moment Zhang Yan ordered the Black Mountain cavalry not to fight with our army, he had no way out. He could only follow me wholeheartedly and walk to the dark. You must know that turning against the enemy in the battle is a taboo in the battle. Once the matter is exposed, it will inevitably lead to the indignation of all the princes, and then attack them. They will be eliminated and will be quickly killed and there will be no place to bury them."

After hearing this, Li Zhi looked confused and puzzled: "How can Yuan Shao and all the princes know about this? Even the last general followed the lord until the war, and he didn't hear the lord mention this matter before."

Li Li smiled indifferently, pointed at the battlefield where there were crowds of people, shouting and killing sounds, and laughed: "What is this place? The main battlefield where hundreds of thousands of people fight head-on, no matter what happens, it cannot escape the eyes and ears of tens of thousands. In such a public eye, nothing can escape from anything, and it will inevitably fall into the eyes of those who are interested."

"??? What's more, from the day when the alliance of princes was established, all the princes from Yuan Shao were staring at me Li Li all the time, so that my every move could not escape their eyes. In this decisive battle, I personally led the army to fight, and Yuan Shao's eyes must have been staring at me, and no matter where I was, he could know it as soon as possible. Therefore, the scene of Zhang Yan's horse and worshipping me just now will naturally come into Yuan Shao's ears as soon as possible. At this moment, I dare to assert that Yuan Shao must have known about Zhang Yan's rebellion, and was angry and wished to catch Zhang Yan immediately and eat his flesh and sleep with his skin."

"Ah!" Li Zhi was shocked and said anxiously: "Since that's the case, why did the lord still order Zhang Yan to lead the infantry to attack Yuan Shao's troops? Wouldn't this betrayal?"

Li Li whispered in a solemn expression: "Nothing. I have always suspected that Yuan Shao has not used any unknown means, which means that he has a backup plan, and his real killer move will always be hidden without any leakage. This time, I want Zhang Yan to lead his army to attack him directly and force him to a dead end to see when his killer move can be hidden!"
