As the commanders of the army, Cao Cao and Liu Bei, no matter how unfavorable the situation is, how dangerous it is, and how difficult it is, the two of them cannot have the slightest cowardice and retreat!

Xun You's question was not just for Chen Gong alone, he was asking everyone, including himself.

If you can't know yourself and your opponent, let alone defeat your opponent, you can't even ...... I don't know how we won or lost.

An unprepared war is a matter of pure luck!

When facing a weak army, you can win by luck.

However, when facing a sharp division like the Liangzhou Army, there was almost no luck in it.

Only with absolute strength can you decide the winner!

"As you see ......"

Xun You, who had already made up his mind in his heart, looked around at the civil and military forces, his expression was full of solemnity, and he asked in a very solemn tone: "What is the next strategy of the Liangzhou Army?"

You must be clear about your opponent's moves, so that you can be prepared to take them. Otherwise, it can only be passively beaten.

Cao Liu's allied army was less thoughtful.

"In the past few days, our army has not been able to hold out and will not fight in the field with the enemy. Want...... I'm afraid the Liangzhou army won't be able to hold it back! ”

Chen Gong, who was already thinking about it in his heart, his expression was full of certainty, and he said in a very affirmative tone: "What I see in the palace......

Within three days, the Liangzhou army was afraid that it would pour out its troops and storm the four cities of Ji's, Wrongdoers, Shan Father, and Chengwu. ”

Cao and Liu's allied forces were civil and military, discussing with each other, nodding their heads and saying good...... According to common sense, the Liangzhou Army should do this.

"What the public station said is reasonable!

A few days ago, when our army was fighting, there was something unfavorable. In the past few days, our army has been unable to hold out......

In desperation, the Liangzhou army will naturally carry the power of a great victory and storm the four cities of its own clan, intending to fight a decisive battle with the main force of the middle route army of our coalition army. ”

Guo Jia, who very much agreed with what Chen Gong said, seconded: "The Liangzhou army relies on its strong troops, brave soldiers, and siege equipment like stone-throwing vehicles, so it will definitely not delay and delay."

"What the public station said is reasonable!"

"Bonghyo is right!"

"I'm afraid the enemy army is about to attack the city!" ……

Cao and Liu's allied forces, all the civil and military forces echoed one after another.

Xun You didn't look at Cao Cao and Liu Bei, nor did he look at the civil and military forces in the hall, but just listened quietly.

Cheng Yu, who frowned, closed his eyes slightly, took a sip of tea, his thoughts were already drifting away, and he fell into his own contemplation.

Cao Cao and Liu Bei glanced at each other, and then, don't start, they also drank tea without a match, thinking about the next move of the Liangzhou army.

After a long time, although no one seconded what Chen Gong and Guo Jia said; However, it can be seen that they agree with what Gongtai and Fengxiao said.

After another half an hour, the sound of discussion in the hall gradually eased down and quieted down.

Until the end of the discussion of the Cao Liu Alliance, Xun You has been suppressing his thoughts and has not revealed them.

"As you can see...... Will the enemy be in a hurry to fight, or will they fight slowly and slowly? ”

Looking around at the civil and military forces in the hall, Xun You, who had already made up his mind for a long time, threw out a question that had to be clarified, "Is our army a quick battle?"

Or can you continue to hold on, continue not to fight with the enemy, and wait for your work...... Waiting for the day when the enemy division is exhausted? ”

Xun You asked one question after another, that is, to let the civil and military forces think for themselves, so that they could understand the grim situation faced by the coalition forces like the collapse of Mount Tai.

"The Liangzhou army labor division is on an expedition, and its military grain road is bound to be remote; If it is delayed for a long time, its military food and grass may be insufficient. 163

Besides, at present, the morale of the Liangzhou army is in full swing, and its military momentum is in full swing, so it should take the initiative to attack our army with the power of a great victory.

Our army has retreated to the hinterland of the territory, and the distance of the grain route is very short, which is convenient for the transfer of grain and grass needed by the army, and the grain and grass are naturally sufficient.

Moreover, our army has a strong city to rely on, so we only need to stick to it without fighting, recuperate and recuperate, and wait for work at leisure...... Can!

Chen Gong, who had been thinking about it for a long time, still said confidently and loudly: "As seen in the palace, the enemy army should fight quickly, and our army should delay the battle!"

Chen Gong's inference is very reasonable.

"What the public station said is exactly what Jia thinks."

Guo Jia seconded the proposal again, and at the end, he added loudly: "This time, the Liangzhou army is dispatched......

The troops in the rear are insufficient, and the defense under the rule is empty, and they will not dare to delay it for a long time, for fear of accidents! ”

"I'll wait, seconding the public platform and what Feng Xiao said!"

Chen Gong and Guo Jia's analysis was once again endorsed and seconded by the civil and military forces of the Cao and Liu coalition forces.

At this moment, a dark light flashed in the eyes of Cao Cao and Cheng Yu at the same time; The brows of the two of them furrowed a little.

"Did you know ......?"

Xun You glanced at Chen Gong and Guo Jia, and then slowly looked around at the Wenwu and asked, "What was the Liangzhou Army doing for a whole year?"

All the Wenwu looked at each other and shook their heads in unison, how could they know the movements of the Liangzhou Army?

The Liangzhou Army's blockade of intelligence was to the extreme, and it was difficult to spy on their useful military information.

"According to the information that our army has received......

Throughout last year, the Liangzhou army was preparing grain and grass, and the grain on the front line of Luoyang City and Wancheng alone was enough for the needs of a million army for a year.

A few days ago, after the Liangzhou army captured Shouchun City, within 10 days, it transported the grain, grass, cloth and other materials needed by millions of people for a year from the front line of Jingzhou and Yangzhou Yuzhang County.

The grain ships of the Liangzhou Army, from Jiangling and Xiangyang City in Jingzhou, stretched all the way to Xunyang in Lujiang County, Liyang and Fuling in Jiujiang County, and there was no end.

How could the Liangzhou army be short of food? ”

Xun You looked around at the civil and military forces, and said in a deep voice: "From the front line of Luoyang and Wancheng to the front line of the enemy army now, it is only a three-to-five day journey. The food and grass needed by the enemy army can be delivered in a steady stream.

How can the enemy's food routes be considered remote? ”

Hearing what Xun You said, Chen Gong, Guo Jia, and Cao Liu's allied army were immediately silent.

"Our army has retreated to the hinterland, and the clans of Yingchuan, Chenliu, Runan and other places have all fled to the front line of Changyi.

and the tens of thousands of civilians who had no time to stop also fled to the rear of our army.

Now, it is almost the end of April, and the acres of land under the control of our army can be used for cultivation and production normally, less than half of last year's. ”

Xun You, who looked solemn, was full of solemnity in his tone, "The summer grain harvest is insufficient, this is an inevitable trend!"

There is no food...... How to feed the army? And how to appease the people? And how can you guarantee a stable rear? ”

But listening to what Xun You said, Chen Gong and Guo Jia panicked, and the civil and military forces were already in a panic, but they didn't say it.

Liu Bei, who was originally moody, his eyebrows were already wrinkled, and his heart must be very dignified.

Cao Cao and Cheng Yu were slammed in their hearts, and when the inspiration flashed, they already understood what Xun Yu said.

It seems that we have to make a decision as soon as possible!

Otherwise, the Cao-Liu coalition army will be wiped out!
