Liu Bei didn't want to speak, but after hearing Lu Zhi's inquiry, he hesitated, and finally answered Lu Zhi.

"Back to the teacher, the student thinks that what Senior Brother Bogui said is very true, at this time, taking advantage of the Yellow Turban Thief, who has not yet fully controlled the Tiger Prison Pass, and everything is not yet familiar, it is the best choice to attack the Tiger Prison Pass."

Liu Bei first flattered Gongsun Praise. After Gongsun Zhan's words, he praised Gongsun Zan, which made Gongsun Zan's expression immediately show a pleasant look.

Immediately followed by another sentence.

"However, what Senior Brother Bogui said, there is one thing I have some different opinions, at this time, the Yellow Turban Thieves are in a state of decline, and it is a good time to attack, but our army has traveled all the way from Xingyang County to Tiger Prison Pass, without a moment of rest, and is also physically and mentally exhausted, and rashly attacks when both the enemy and us are unfavorable, even if our army can finally win a big victory, there will definitely be many losses and generals."

"Therefore, in my opinion, our army should first set up camp, recuperate for a while, and wait for our army to regain its momentum, and it is more prudent to attack Tiger Prison Pass after the decision is made."

Liu Bei didn't say that Gongsun Zhan's method was not good, but said that if he followed Gongsun Zhan's method and directly attacked the Tiger Prison Pass, he would win, and the loss would definitely be great, and if he waited a few days, he would wait for the soldiers on his side to recover his strength and attack the city again.

For Lu Zhi's army, it is more advantageous, at least in terms of combat losses, there will be a significant reduction.

"And now that we have surrounded the Tiger Prison Pass, the Yellow Turban thieves in the Tiger Prison Pass will definitely not be able to escape from the Pass, and there is not much difference between attacking the city early and attacking the city later."

"Even if these yellow turban thieves and dogs jump over the wall in a hurry and choose to attack Luoyang, we will inevitably receive the news, when the time comes, they will storm the Tiger Prison Pass, follow behind these Yellow Turban thieves, and finally they decide to attack Luoyang, they will inevitably be attacked by the defenders of Luoyang and our army before and after, and lose the tiger prison to fight with these Yellow Turban thieves in the field, and our army will have a big war advantage."

"So these gold thieves can break it."

After Liu Bei decided to speak, he said everything in his heart.

At first, Gongsun Zan thought that Liu Bei agreed with his opinion to attack the city immediately, but as Liu Bei spoke, Gongsun Zan's face was a little unbearable.

Fortunately, Liu Bei did not completely overturn his opinion, which made his ugly face a little comforted.

On the contrary, it was Lu Zhi, who praised Liu Bei greatly after listening to Liu Bei's words, with a kind smile on his face, and seemed to be very satisfied with Liu Bei's answer.

"Xuande's idea is very much in line with what I think, so be it."

"Judging from my experience of fighting with the Yellow Turban Army during this time, the Yellow Turban Army is in great shape, they have just laid the Tiger Prison Pass, and at this time the morale is strong if our army attacks the city, it is bound to be a hard battle."

"But if we surround and don't fight, it will take two days to make these yellow turban thieves panic, and it will be much easier for us to attack the Tiger Prison Pass again."

Lu Zhi added two sentences after everyone finished speaking.

After everyone heard Lu Zhi's description, they naturally didn't say anything, and echoed Lu Zhi's words one by one, and the parliament before the war dispersed like this.

At the same time, Liu Zheng, who was upstairs in the Tiger Prison Gate, was also discussing with his own people how to face Lu Zhi's attack next.

"Mr. Xu You, what do you think of this guy Lu Zhi, just to surround him and not fight."

Originally, Liu Zheng thought that after Lu Zhi's soldiers and horses arrived at the Tiger Pass, they should attack the Tiger Pass with all their strength and disintegrate their Yellow Turban Army as soon as possible.

But after Lu Zhi arrived at the Tiger Pass, instead of directly attacking the city, he did not move, and distributed his 40,000 soldiers and horses around the Tiger Pass, echoing each other from afar.

But there was no intention of attacking the Tiger Prison.

This made Liu Zheng, who was preparing for a big battle, a little unclear about what Lu Zhi meant.

"Qu Shuai, this guy Lu Zhi is smart, he didn't want to come over late at night, he took the opportunity to eliminate me and others, he just wanted to put some pressure on me."

"Lu Zhi must have been ordered by Emperor Ling of Han to withdraw the army of King Laiqin from Jizhou, so he must not let us attack Luoyang, so Chen Bing will form a huge pressure on us under the Tiger Prison Pass, and we will have no time to attack Luoyang."

"And once we fall and attack Luoyang, the defense of the Tiger Prison Pass will be empty, Lu Zhi, who has 40,000 troops, it will be easy to break the Tiger Prison Pass, and once we enter the Sili area, we will be isolated in this Luoyang Jinggi land, and we will be attacked by Luoyang's army and Lu Zhi's army before and after, and it will inevitably die faster."

Lu Zhi's thoughts, Xu You quickly saw through.

After telling Liu Zheng, Liu Zheng nodded, and he understood why Lu Zhi came to the Tiger Prison Pass, but he didn't move.

"Lu Zhi, this guy is really insidious, he surrounded the Tiger Prison Pass, how can he not stop our retreat."

"But he has his calculations, and I have my plans. If he attacked the city with all his might as soon as he came to the Tiger Prison Pass, I really didn't have some that I might not be able to withstand, after all, it was an attack of 40,000 people. But now that he doesn't attack the city, but only besieges the Tiger Prison Pass, I have a way to make him restless. ”

"Oh, it seems that Qu Shuai has already thought of a way to deal with Lu Zhi?"

As soon as Xu You heard Liu Zheng say this, he immediately became interested.

"It's not that there is no way, it's just that you need to be wronged by Mr. Xu You."

"Huh?"

Liu Zheng didn't speak clearly, and Xu You was even more curious after hearing it, and he didn't understand what Liu Zheng had in mind.

"Mr. Xu You, do you guess if Luoyang already knows the news that we broke the Tiger Prison Pass yesterday."

"This is still a guess, I think Luoyang already knew that the Tiger Prison Pass was lost, and the soldiers who escaped from the Tiger Prison Pass yesterday must have brought the news to Luoyang, and now the emperor Lao'er must have been unable to sit still, and the entire Luoyang is under full martial law."

"That's right, if I take people and horses to wreak havoc around Luoyang at this time, do you say, will the emperor Lao'er sitting on the dragon chair in Luoyang City jump up from the dragon chair!"

Liu Zheng said this, which suddenly made Xu You's eyes light up, if it was really as Liu Zheng said, he took the army to loot around Luoyang, but I am afraid that even if Luoyang City has not been attacked, those generals and civil servants in Luoyang City will not be able to sit still.

But Xu You thought about it carefully, in this case, there would be no one to guard the Tiger Prison Pass. Lu Zhi's army will directly pass through the Tiger Prison Pass. When the time comes, he will be surrounded and suppressed by Lu Zhi's army, and he will not be attacked on both sides.

"Qu Shuai, although your plan is good, but we only have 50,000 people, what if half of the soldiers and horses are sent to ransack the Tiger Prison Pass around Luoyang, there are not enough people and horses, and it is difficult to hold the Tiger Prison Pass."
