Seeing that Yuan Shao was about to retreat, a group of strategists led by the trial and match suddenly became anxious. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The judge was the most anxious, and immediately stood up and tried his best to dissuade him: "My lord, it has been raining heavily in Guanzhong for several days, the gallop road is muddy and difficult to walk, the water level of the Weishui River is growing rapidly, and the transportation of grain and grass for the Northern Xinjiang Army has also encountered great difficulties, and the situation of the Northern Xinjiang Army is not much better than ours at this time. In addition, Li Dao, who was surrounded in the area of Nanshan Pavilion, had fallen into a desperate situation because of the lack of grain and grass, and the situation in Guanzhong was about to change. ”

"The lord withdraws his troops at this time, not only will he lose the best opportunity to occupy Guanzhong, but he will also lose Luoyang because he can't rescue him. Once both places are lost, the lord will never have a chance to turn over. ”

However, another group of strategists led by Guo Tu supported Yuan Shao's withdrawal opinion.

Guo Tu said: "My lord, the defense of the Kanto region is weak, even if Gao Lan, who is stationed in Nanyang, comes back to help in time, it will only rely on the strong support of Luoyang's city for a while." The fact that Hangu Pass was lost so quickly shows that the strength of the Northern Xinjiang Army attacking Kwantung far exceeded our estimates, and Li Yi's target may not be Guanzhong, nor the Central Plains, but Luoyang. ”

"If Luoyang is lost, the Central Plains will not be protected immediately, even if we occupy Guanzhong at that time, what is the point? This level has become almost a blank field because of continuous wars, we occupy here, there is no population, no troops, and we will eventually be trapped and killed here by Li Yi. ”

"Li Yi's main target is definitely not Luoyang." The judge said excitedly, "We have analyzed this matter many times before, and the current strength of the Northern Xinjiang Army in Guanzhong has fully proved this, the main direction of attack of the Northern Xinjiang Army is either Guanzhong or the Central Plains, which will definitely not be." Although the premature loss of Hanya Pass was an accident, the loss of Hanya Pass does not mean that we can no longer hold Kanto. Luoyang City is tall and strong, there are plenty of food, grass and ordnance in the city, and there are more than 20,000 defenders. ”

"Will there be 100,000 troops in the Northern Frontier Army attacking the Kanto? This is obviously impossible, so we don't need to worry about Luoyang. The judge pointed to the map on the case, and made a heavy stroke between Kanto and Guanzhong, "If we can defeat the Northern Xinjiang Army in Guanzhong, we will not only be able to occupy Guanzhong smoothly, but also take advantage of the situation to pursue and attack Guanxi from the direction of Tongguan." After our troops left Tongguan, the Northern Xinjiang Army had no choice but to retreat in order to avoid being attacked by us in front and rear. In this way, we can not only solve the danger of Luoyang, but also possibly take advantage of the situation to capture Kansai. ”

"Lord ......," the judge shouted, "At this moment, retreat is a dead end, and only an attack can completely reverse the situation." Turn defeat into victory! As long as the lord withdraws his troops, Han Sui and Ma Teng will immediately renegade their alliances and join the general. There is also Liu Biao in Jingzhou, who is sad and disappointed, and it is very likely that he will turn against the lord. The lords rebelled and left, how long can they hold out in Kanto? ”

………………

Kuai Yue heard that Yuan Shao was going to withdraw his troops, so he hurriedly came to dissuade him.

Under the persuasion of everyone, Yuan Shao finally gave up the plan to withdraw the army, and instead discussed with everyone the strategy of breaking the enemy.

At this time, Li Dao had reached the point of exhaustion, and he had sent people to contact him many times, asking Yuan Shao to take the initiative to launch an attack and contain the main force of the Northern Xinjiang Army from the front, and then he led the army to break through the encirclement, and Yuan Shaoli should join forces with the outside world to defeat the Northern Xinjiang Army.

Yuan Shao had wanted to fight for a long time. After a long time, if the remnants of the Xiliang Army led by Li Dao and Guo Yan become infighting due to lack of food, and then collapse completely, then the Northern Xinjiang Army will be able to kill Li Dao, Guo Yan and others without much effort, and their own advantages will be gone.

There are many reasons why it has not been fought for a long time. The difficulty in transporting grain and grass was one reason for the heavy rain in Guanzhong, and the loss of Hangu Pass and the siege of Luoyang by the Northern Xinjiang Army was also a reason, but the main reason was that there was no advantage in troops.

The two armies of Yuan Shao and Liu Biao in Guanzhong together had 80,000 people, and if these 80,000 people faced the enemy head-on with the Northern Xinjiang Army, the two wings must be protected by iron cavalry, otherwise, this battle would definitely be lost.

But Yuan Shao didn't believe in Han Sui and Ma Teng, once he handed over his back to someone he didn't trust, Yuan Shao didn't know what terrible consequences would happen.

"If we and the Northern Xinjiang Army are both defeated, Han Sui and Ma Teng can easily defeat us immediately, or they can drive away the Northern Xinjiang Army, so that they can join forces with Dong Zhuo's old army to occupy Guanzhong again. Since Han Sui and Ma Teng have such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, why should they let it go? Yuan Shao frowned, "If we want to defeat the Northern Frontier Army, we must get the help of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, but how can we get the help of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry and not worry about being pitted by them?" ”

The crowd was silent.

As Yuan Shao said, the attitude of the people of Xiliang directly determined the victory or defeat of the Battle of Guanzhong. Once the two sides fought, if the Xiliang people turned against each other and helped the Northern Xinjiang Army to attack and kill Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao would be in danger of being wiped out. Similarly, if the Xiliang people watch the fire from the other side and do not help each other, it will be very unfavorable to Yuan Shao, because it is difficult for these 80,000 foot soldiers to defeat the iron cavalry of the Northern Xinjiang Army, and the Xiliang people will definitely help the Northern Xinjiang Army kill Yuan Shao when they see Yuan Shao's defeat.

"Doesn't the lord have faith in Ma Teng?" The judge asked.

"In Xiliang, Han Sui's prestige is in full swing, and Ma Teng can't compare with him." Yuan Shao smiled bitterly, "Han Sui is a famous man in Xiliang, and Bian Zhang, Beigong Boyu and others are the leaders of the earliest uprising in Xiliang. Later, Liangzhou Assassin Shi Geng led an army to quell the rebellion, but was defeated by Han Sui's army, and Ma Teng and a group of people immediately took the opportunity to betray the imperial court and took refuge in the kingdom of the commander of the Western Liang Army at that time. After the death of the kingdom, Han Sui tried to balance the forces of all parties in Xiliang. pushed Ma Teng to the position of deputy commander of the Xiliang Army. ”

"You can think about it carefully, how different is Ma Teng's status in the Xiliang Army from Yang Qiu, Cheng Yin, and Li Kan? At best, he is just a leader of the Xiliang Army, how much weight can he have? He dared to openly confront Han Sui? Turning his face with Han Sui is actually turning his face with the commanders of the Xiliang Army, no matter how bold Ma Teng is, he doesn't dare to do it. He always had to leave a way back. Guanzhong can't stay, and he has to return to Xiliang. offended Han Sui, how could he go back to Xiliang? ”

Yuan Shao looked at the trial, shook his head again and again, and said: "Ma Teng is a descendant of General Fubo Ma Yuan, after being loyal to Liang, of course he doesn't want to be a rebel for the rest of his life, he very much wants to wash away the crime through King Qin's actions, and then help the Son of Heaven stabilize the society, build a great feat, and leave a name in history like his ancestors." ”

"But his strength is not strong enough, and his character is not very good, so I can't give him the lives of 80,000 people. If he can betray Geng Contempt and betray Han Sui, why can't he betray me? ”

"Lord, you are so worried, how can you fight the battle in this level?" The trial hesitated for a long time, and couldn't help but say something heavy, "Actually, this battle should have been fought a long time ago, but the lord has dragged it out again and again, and the situation has become more and more unfavorable for us." The more unfavorable the situation, the more the lord will not dare to fight, and if it drags on like this, defeat is inevitable. ”

Yuan Shao's face sank, and he said unhappily: "I want to think about the overall situation, I want to think about the lives of 80,000 soldiers, if I have to be willful and reckless like you, I can still sit here and talk to you today?" I'm long dead! ”

"But the lord looks forward and backward like this, he is afraid of wolves and tigers, and if he doesn't die, he has to die." The judge was angry in his heart, and swallowed an even more ugly sentence.

Yuan Shao's face was a little unbearable.

Yuan Shao is notoriously indecisive, but what he hates most is that others say he is indecisive. If the judge spoke like this in front of so many people, it was undoubtedly equivalent to slapping him in the face.

Guo Tu and the others looked at the trial worriedly. As Yuan Shao's henchmen, they naturally knew Yuan Shao's scruples. Although from the perspective of competitors, they wish to anger Yuan Shao and fall out of favor from now on, they can have a more consolidated position. However, they didn't want to be hated by Yuan Shao because of this incident, and even lost their lives.

Yuan Shao snorted angrily, and was about to have a seizure, Kuai Yue, who was sitting next to him, hurriedly stood up and said, "Brother Benchu, we should listen to Mr. Zhengnan's strategy to break the enemy." Since he has faith in Ma Teng, he must have his reasons. ”

Yuan Shao barely suppressed his anger in the way of Kuai Yue's face, waved his hand at the judge, and motioned for him to continue.

The judge also knew that his words just now had angered Yuan Shao, but he was a stubborn person, and there was indeed an opportunity to defeat the Northern Xinjiang Army in front of him. If you give up, the opportunity will be difficult to arise again, and it is likely to lead to a total collapse of your own side.

As a strategist, he and Yuan Shao will both prosper and lose, if Yuan Shao is defeated, he, an important strategist under Yuan Shao, may not have any good results.

Therefore, after getting Yuan Shao's permission, the judge immediately spoke: "Lord, we all know Li Yi's purpose. With his thoughts, he would definitely not tolerate people like Han Sui and Ma Teng continuing to divide Xiliang, so even if he wouldn't move Han Sui and Ma Teng for the time being, once he pulled out his hand, he would definitely clean up Han Sui and Ma Teng. ”

"Another very important point, as the lord just said, Ma Teng started by betraying the imperial court, and Li Yi hates the most is a traitor, with Ma Teng's bad deeds, Li Yi will definitely not let him go in the future. In such a near-mortal situation, is it possible for Ma Teng to survive except to cooperate with us and defeat the Northern Frontier Army? ”

"If we are defeated and the Northern Xinjiang Army occupies Guanzhong, how can the survival of the Western Liang Army be solved? It is impossible for the general to let Han Sui and Ma Teng occupy the western frontier for a long time, and it is even more impossible to tolerate Han Sui and Ma Teng to divide one side. If the two are cared for, their lives will not be saved, and if they are not cared for, the general will lead the army to quell the rebellion, and in the end it will be a dead end. If the Northern Xinjiang Army is defeated and we occupy Guanzhong, Han Sui and Ma Teng will not only be able to save their lives, but also be relieved to be cared for after the world is stabilized, and continue to enjoy the glory and wealth. Therefore, Ma Teng will definitely help the lord defeat the Northern Frontier Army, and Han Sui will start from the survival of the Xiliang Army, even if he is unwilling to help us, he will not take the initiative to help the Northern Frontier Army fight us.
