Chapter 975

Zhang Yan didn't know what Huangfu Chaobo was thinking, but he had already figured out that the way to become a thief would not last long, but now the situation in the world is not clear, and Yuan Shao and Lv Bu despise themselves as a thief general. Therefore, he must firmly control the black mountain army in his own hands and think that he would be the capital for promotion in the future.

To control the black mountain army, not all the millions of people are controlled in his own hands, but there is an elite army with tens of thousands of people loyal to him. Only if the army wants to be elite, money, food and weapons are indispensable. So this time, even if Huangfu Chaobo asked for the 500000 people in black mountain, he would not hesitate to agree.

Hearing Huangfu Chaobo's words, Zhang Yan immediately climbed up the pole and said, "this time I visited the Marquis, it's really because the Heishan army and Yuan Shao army fought against each other for more than a year. Although they managed to hold Zhending's front-line cities, there was too much loss of grain and grass in the army. In addition, the war lasted for a long time, and large areas of fields were deserted. The output of those fields in the mountains alone was not enough to sustain the needs of two million soldiers I want to, so I'm here to ask the Marquis for help! "

After listening to Zhang Yan's words, Huangfu gave Pang Tong a look, which made them blink.

Pang Tong came out and said, "I don't know how our Lord will support your army in the war."

Even if developed countries are like the real world, the world knows one truth: weak countries have no diplomacy. Today's Zhang Yan is just like this. Two million people of the black mountain army are crying for food. If Zhang Yan ignores him, hundreds of thousands of black mountain army will be unstable, and his standing will be shaken.

In the face of Pang Tong's question, Zhang Yan didn't cover it up any more. He said, "the Heishan army has nothing but some property accumulated over the years."

Huang Fu Chao Bo and his party laughed and said, "if the general agrees, Yan is willing to move 100000 households to Sizhou." Zhang Yan gritted her teeth and finally said her second card. "However, in addition to food, we need weapons and equipment of 50000 people supported by the general."

One hundred thousand households, with five to eight people in each household, have agreed to use 500000 to 800000 people in exchange for the support of Huangfu Chaobo.

After hearing this, Huangfu Chaobo nodded in silence. It seems that Zhang Yan wants to control the 50000 elite Heishan army. As for the rest of the troops, with the weapons and equipment replaced by 50000 people, tens of thousands of troops can be refined. In this way, the Heishan army will have more than 100000 troops. Although the population is less than 500000, the combat power of the Heishan army is stronger.

Huangfu Chaobo shakes his head. It's not enough just to have these. Hundreds of thousands of people want to immigrate from Heishan to Sizhou, even Weijun. It's very unrealistic that they have to pass under yuan Shaojun's eyes just by walking. You know, it took more than 10000 people in Zhaojia village to move. I don't know how much thought and energy Huangfu Chaobo spent.

As for food, no matter which force is in, it is war preparedness materials. Of course, the two sides of the river in Jingyang and Yangzhou may be better, but the cost of the food he transported from the south is also very large. Although it is better now, Yuzhou has been brought into the rule, which can temporarily ease his food crisis. This is also the base of his intention to launch the war against Cao.

If it is sold to Zhang Yan, it will take a lot of energy to transport the grain. Zhang Yan's willingness to pay for the grain is not enough. Therefore, Huangfu Chaobo needs Zhang Yan to pay more.

Zhang Yan knew that these things he put forward were not enough to move Huangfu Chaobo. She gritted her teeth and continued: "there has always been a conflict between the Zhengdong army and Yuan Shaojun. If there is another war between the two families, the Heishan army will spare no effort to help the marquis. Of course, if the Heishan army is in trouble, please send troops to help. "

Huangfu Chaobo nodded noncommittally and did not answer. He continued to look at Zhang Yan.

"One day, if Hou yebing points to Hebei and takes charge of Jizhou, Zhang Yan will surely lead the Ministry to invest and attach it to the tail." Zhang Yan's last limit was finally laid out under the repeated coercion of Huangfu Chaobo.

"Good!" Huangfu Chaobo said in a loud voice: "with general Zhang's words, I would be relieved! The materials needed by the Montenegrin army can come together. We will try our best to meet them. "

With the words of Huangfu Chaobo, Zhang Yan's heart was finally released. However, there was a small loophole in their words, but they did not point it out.

What Zhang Yan said in his words "in the future" shows that Zhang Yan's meaning is that if we want our Heishan army to take refuge with you, we can wait until you really control Hebei. If we can defeat Yuan Shao, our Heishan army will take part in it. If we can't, we can talk about it.

In Huangfu Chaobo's words, he said "try to be satisfied". They both understood that if you pay, I'll sell you grain weapons. However, in terms of quantity, we should discuss with each other, not through a third party. The quantity is still strictly controlled.

When the general direction is confirmed, the details will be handed over to the subordinate for operation. Lu Su was in charge of the expedition to the East. In fact, Pang Tong and Guo Jia were not interested in these complicated political affairs. It was not that they could not do it. And the Heishan army gave Zhang Yan a close friend Daji, which is one of the few people in the Heishan army who is good at calculation, otherwise it would not be Daji.

Soon the two sides reached an agreement. In the first round of the deal, the black mountain army will buy 100000 stones of grain and 10000 sets of excellent weapons and armor from the East army, including 1000 one stone crossbows, two pots of 200 crossbows and two thousand pack horses. And Zhang Yan will soon order people to send the money that has already been prepared. This time, Zhang Yan will bring the first batch of money back to Heishan together with his relatives. The rest will be shipped back after the spring of next year.With these grains, at least the morale of the floating people of the Montenegrin army can be stabilized.

Later, the two men left with their own troops. Zhang Yan's needs will be delivered tomorrow, while Huangfu Chaobo will continue his inspection tour under the escort of 10000 troops.

The next stop is related to the country.

In fact, strictly speaking, the Dongkou of Fukou, Fukou pass, is located 50 Li southwest of Handan, in the valley of Xiangtang mountain, while Fukou pass, Wu'an city and sheguo are all located above Fukou pass, and further to the west is Lu County of Shangdang in Bingzhou.

After Zhao Yun led his troops to Weijun, he had already sent 2000 battle barracks to the east exit of the fourth of the eighth Taihang trail. However, after his inspection, Huangfu Chaobo still felt that Zhao Yun should continue to push his defense westward and put the first line of defense in the Valley Road to the west of the country.
