Before Emperor Ling Liu Che died, many princes made their fortunes through the contributions of the Yellow Turban Army.

Regarding the impression of the Yellow Turban Army, the generals from all walks of life will instinctively label them as "weak chicken", "human-shaped sending device", "walking title", etc.

Even those present, such as Zhang He, Qu Yi and others, looked down on the Black Mountain Army, who were born in the Yellow Turbans from the bottom of their hearts.

Because they all fought, and almost all ended in victory!

It is really difficult to make them wary of their defeated opponents!

But Pan Feng knew that it was indeed not difficult to defeat the Black Mountain Army, but it would be too difficult to defeat the Black Mountain Army and even eliminate it!

Nothing else.

The Taihang Mountains are high and the forests are deep!

If the Black Mountain Army hid in it everywhere, even if these people were combined with hundreds of thousands of people, they would not be discovered by ordinary scouts.

Besides, marching on the mountain road is not ordinary. The Black Mountain Army naturally hides for the death to survive, but how could the pursuing officers and soldiers use their lives to explore the way like the Black Mountain Army?

Is it because the wife at home is no longer fragrant, or is it because Cuihua from the next village?

Most of the official troops of this period, to put it nicely, are the official armed forces, and to put it badly, just a group of gangsters with organization. If they want to bully ordinary people, they will naturally come out one by one, but let them risk their lives to go into the mountains to fight to kill the thieves, without thinking.

They would rather be locked by a man by a strong man!

However, it was the official army in some local cities, and the soldiers in the Jizhou camp were useful.

"Lord, the Black Mountain Army has a long history and their roots are hard to find. If you want to catch them all in one go, you must make a long-term plan." Pan Feng said.

Pan Feng's words were still very useful. Han Fu, who was angry, calmed down when he heard Pan Feng was so cautious.

But still angry!

"Zihe's saying it is reasonable, but the Black Mountain bandits are really hateful. Please try to think of a way. If you have Yuan Shao outside, you are eyeing him and bandits inside, you will cause trouble. If you are not careful, it will cause Jizhou's vitality to be seriously damaged. This matter must be handled properly, so that you can let go of your hands and feet against Yuan Shao." Han Fu said.

Some news came from Hanoi that Yuan Shao’s troops are increasing and more and more, and nearly 40,000 troops have been recruited a while ago.

You know, the total number of soldiers and horses in the Jizhou camp is less than 50,000!

Now Han Fu no longer provides Yuan Shao with food and wages, but Yuan Shao has the support of the Hanoi prefect Wang Kuang, so there will be no problems for the time being.

According to Han Fu's estimate, Yuan Shao should be launching troops after the Chinese New Year, otherwise Wang Kuang would not be able to hold on for long after so many troops.

Therefore, the matter of the Black Mountain Army must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise there will be wolves in front and tigers in the back, and the Jizhou Army will face a war on both sides, which will be dangerous.

Just as everyone was thinking, Ju Su stood up.

"Lord, it's winter now, and it's not good to use troops. It's better for us to set up defenses in cities that have not yet fallen, and at the same time, we will firmly clear the walls and clear the fields to summon the surrounding people to take refuge in the city. As long as we persist for half a month, the black mountain bandits will definitely retreat on their own. When the weather warms up after the New Year, we will discuss the matter of cracking down on the thieves or guarding against the thieves."

Ju Su's words made many people present nod.

It is indeed not good to use troops in winter, and Jushu's method is relatively stable, but if the Black Mountain bandits retreat into the mountains next year, it will be difficult to attack them.

"Lord! I think we can contact Shangdang Zhang Yang and let Zhang Yang join forces with us."

"Zhang Yang has been attacking the thief in Shangdang for a long time. If the lord wrote a letter to him, Zhang Yang would definitely respond. At that time, even if the Black Mountain Army hid in the mountains, it would be impossible to escape and die!" Guo Tu stood up and said.

Before he finished speaking, Shen Pei refuted.

"Master, don't do this!"

Shen Pei looked at Guo Tu and looked a little angry: "Lord, Zhang Yang was indeed suppressing thieves and traitors before, but he also plundered Shangdang counties and his behavior was no different from that of the thieves. What's more, Zhang Yang and Yu Fuluo have defected to Yuan Shao now, how can we unite with him!"

Zhang Yang surrendered to Yuan Shao when the princes attacked Dong. Otherwise, he would have robbed Shangdang counties and attacked Shangdang prefects and would have been labeled as a rebel by the world.

It was also thanks to Zhang Yang's rebel against Yuan Shao and became a rebel army to fight against the thieves, so the other princes reluctantly refused to pursue his actions.

Now, after Yuan Shao entered Hanoi, Zhang Yang is still active in the junction between Shangdang District and Hanoi, which is also the plundering area of ​​the Montenegro bandits, so if Zhang Yang can help send troops to attack the Montenegro bandits, it will be of some use.

However, jointly suppressing thieves with Yuan Shao's Qu troops is tantamount to attracting wolves into the house.

It was precisely because Shen Pei saw this that he was angry at Guo Tu's proposal.

"Absurd! Even if Zhang Yang surrenders to Yuan Shao, are they not ministers of the Han Dynasty? Shouldn't they protect the people under their command? The bandits in the Black Mountains plundered all directions, and everyone was punished! Besides, we are separated from him by a mountain range. I understand that Zhang Yang has the power to fly and escape, and it is impossible to cause any losses to our Jizhou. On the contrary, we can save some of our troops to defend against other counties. Why not try such a good thing?" Guo Tu looked at Shen Pei unhappily.

The two of them faced each other with their fingers, and Pan Feng frowned repeatedly.

"Hmph! The word of luck is not a wise person!" Shen Pei snorted and turned around.

"You!" Guo Tu's face turned red and she had to argue with Shen Feng, but seeing so many people present, she could only forcefully swallow the later words.

Pan Feng could hear both Guo Tu and Shen Pei clearly. If Pan Feng didn't know that Guo Tu would surrender to Yuan Shao in the end, he might have thought about his words carefully, but Pan Feng knew in his heart that Guo Tu had probably already been interested in Yuan Shao at this time. Now that he proposed this joint Zhang Yang suggestion, there were probably some unknown conspiracies and tricks.

Pan Feng has to be on guard!

"Lord, I think the method of the Duke and Mr. is more secure. Although the Black Mountain Army was born in the Yellow Turban, under the constraints of the thief Zhang Yan over the years, although the Black Mountain Army has robbed, it has rarely burned and killed it."

"If the troops advance at this time, the Heishan Army will inevitably be as anxious as Mount Tai. At that time, in order to increase the speed of plunder, the soldiers in the Heishan Army may let go of their hands and feet to burn and kill them at will. At that time, the people may suffer greater losses. Therefore, I hope that the lord can survive this winter according to the methods of the Duke and the Mr.."

Zhang Yan is a smart person. The practice of fishing in the dry pond is harmful but not beneficial to him. Naturally, he will not try it easily. Therefore, the Black Mountain Army has robbed, but it will not cause any damage to the counties next to the Taihang Mountains. Except for the robbed people who are a little sad and starved to death, the other losses are minimal.

After all, it is mostly winter that the Black Mountain bandits come out to rob, and there are no crops in the fields in winter. Even if the Black Mountain army tramples on them, it will not have much impact on the people's farming in the coming year.

Pan Feng's words made Guo Tu secretly hate him. He deliberately refuted him, but after seeing the intention on Han Fu's face, Guo Tu wisely closed his mouth.

He knew Han Fu well and knew that Han Fu had already made a decision in his heart because of Pan Feng's words.

Sure enough, Han Fu hesitated for a while and then made up his mind.

"Since that's the case, then follow Gong Yue's method." Han Fu waved his hand and sighed.

The Black Mountain bandits are about to jump around for a while again.

"Lord, the plan between you and your husband is really good, but I think I still have to send someone to the Black Mountain Army to lobby, so that Zhang Yan and the thieves will come forward to restrain their subordinates and not burn them." Xin Ping said suddenly.

Han Fu nodded. Although Zhang Yan had restrained all the troops, it would be different if the vicious black bandits in the city would obey Zhang Yan's constraints. After all, Zhang Yan only managed some of the music departments, and most of the people were commanded by the generals under his command.

"Zhongzhi's words are reasonable. The thief does not speak morally. If they commit crimes and rebellion, the people will suffer. As long as the Black Mountain Army does less killing, what can I give them some benefits? But who is willing to lobby Zhang Yan?"

"I'm not talented, I'm willing to give it a try!" Xin Ping gave a deep gift.

"Okay, since that's the case, I'll ask Zhongzhi to go there." Han Fu was very satisfied with Xin Ping's volunteering.
