High vision!
Isn't this one of the four pillars and one beam of Yuan Shao's future army?
Four pillars (Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Gao Lan, Zhang He) and one beam (Han Meng).
During the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's armies faced off. Zhang Liao from Cao Cao's army took the lead in challenging them to battle, while Zhang He from Yuan Shao's army charged forward on horseback with his spear. The two generals fought for forty or fifty rounds without a clear victor.
Then, Cao Cao's top general Xu Chu rode out on horseback, wielding his sword, to join the battle. Yuan Shao's general Gao Lan "conquered him with his spear, and the four generals fought each other in pairs."
Gao Lan's martial prowess was extraordinary, as he was able to fight Xu Chu.
Unfortunately, after he surrendered to Cao Cao, he encountered "Yun Da Nu" and was killed by Zhao Yun with a single spear thrust!
Liu Wei has already subdued Zhang He. Since he's going to Zhen Ding to recruit Zhao Yun, he might as well recruit Gao Lan as well.
If they refuse, kill them; do not leave Yuan Shao with even a trace!
At this moment, Yuan Shao must also be actively recruiting talent in Ji Province and replacing his own team with his own.
"Withdraw Wuji's forces and head to Zhending!" Liu Wei immediately said.
"Then...then should we still ask the Zhen family for grain?" Zhang Yan asked in surprise.
They brought two thousand cavalrymen from Zhengding, but they didn't get any food. If they don't have food, the Black Mountain Army will collapse!
"Grain and fodder, is that it? I have hidden 30,000 shi of grain and fodder ten miles away in a valley, enough to sustain your troops for a month."
"The Zhen family helps refugees and is kind to others. If you go and ask them for food and supplies, it would be really unkind of you."
"What! Your Excellency has hidden grain! Then why should we go to Wuji County and ask the Zhen family for grain?"
"The Black Mountain Army obeys the Grand Master's every command! We'll do whatever the Grand Master says!"
Zhang Yan was extremely excited.
For him now, having grain is like having a godfather!
"Quickly take some men to the valley to fetch grain. I'm going to say a few words to the Zhen family, and then we'll set off together for Zhengding!"
"Here you go!"
Zhang Yan clasped her hands in agreement.
