"Republican thief, if you don't succeed enough, how can I wait to attack?" Yuan Shao said.

All the generals agreed. They believed that the alliance leader's ideas and practices were right, after all, this would largely prevent them from suffering greater casualties. This is also the main idea of the various generals. Most of their forces are built up by relying on local forces, and if they lose too much, they will lose much of their prestige in the local area. Plus a variety of reasons. They really didn't want to strike again.

Another sortie could lead to serious losses in their situation, and in such a situation, they simply would not be able to maintain much military power. So, the only, best thing to do, is to avoid attacks as much as possible. This is in line with the individual. as well as for the benefit of all. But this is useless for the continued existence of the Han family, because their negative attitude will not make things turn around at all.

"The Republican Army is superior in strength, and it is not enough to accomplish anything." Cao Cao asked rhetorically.

But Yuan Shao and the others couldn't listen to such a view at all, and for them, the current situation was already the best. It is simply impossible to achieve greater development, and in such a situation, it is impossible to develop a result at all.

"Ugh." Cao Cao sighed helplessly. If they can seize the opportunity of the Republican Army to appear on Dong Zhuo's flank and launch an attack, perhaps, the situation will be better, but unfortunately, the attitude of Yuan Shao and the others has already determined their future height, and they don't want an opportunity to reduce any of their strength at all. It is not so much that they are afraid of the loss of their strength, but that they are afraid of being beaten by firearms. They really didn't want to leave the safety of the trenches to continue fighting.

Cao Cao had lost hope in these people. Their actions are not for the Han family at all. Faced with such an extremely favorable opportunity for the appearance of the Republican Army on the flank, he chose a conservative approach.

Jingshi, Luoyang.

Dong Zhuo is now most concerned about the Republican Army on the north bank of the Yellow River. As for some officers in Hanoi, the life and death of local officials, he no longer cares. Killing a few counts a few, but the problem is that they have serious consequences, and they can't change some of the current situation at all, and that's the worst part of the problem.

"What should I do?" Dong Zhuo suppressed his anger and asked. He was well aware of the speed of the IRA advance. They were able to appear unnoticedly at the beginning, and they would surely be able to appear on their flanks as quickly as possible. They have too many means. Now they simply cannot intercept the Republican Army.

"Lord, for the sake of today's plan, the only way to do this is to abandon Luoyang, the capital of Beijing, and establish a new capital in Chang'an, as long as we control the Son of Heaven, we can command the world." Li Dao reluctantly put forward such a suggestion, and this suggestion was finally forced to put forward in desperation.

"Oh?" Hearing this, Dong Zhuo was very interested, because this suggestion sounded very good.

"Still?" Dong Zhuo said. He was thinking about the merits of this suggestion, and if the benefits weren't great, he wouldn't have to. After all, Jingshi Luoyang is not his foundation, and he can't keep it, money is originally something outside his body, Dong Zhuo has never valued these, because if he needs it, he will take more things to do these things. The crux of the matter is to keep your power, which is the root of everything.

"We can hand over the capital division Luoyang to the republican army, and take the initiative to give it to the republican army, in this way, the republican army will stand in front of us, directly facing the Kwantung coalition army, if they can block it, this is extremely beneficial to us, we can retreat calmly, with the republican army, as well as Hangu Pass, and Tongguan, we can protect our Guanzhong." Li Dao could only say this. He hoped that Dong Zhuo would accept it, after all, insisting on Luoyang, the capital division, would make him lose too much in strength.

"Well, before retreating, we can burn Luoyang, the capital division, and those people will be forcibly driven to Chang'an." Dong Zhuo said.

"Lord, no, this is my negotiation request with the Republican Army, if the Republican Army crosses the Yellow River immediately, what the Republican Army wants is the Beijing Division Luoyang, if we burn the Beijing Division Luoyang, the Republican Army will inevitably take revenge. In addition, we also hope to make friends with the Republican Army, so that we can develop in Guanzhong. Li Wei suggested. So far, that's all it can be. Jingshi Luoyang, since it can't be protected, it's better to take the initiative to give up, and at the same time, they can't destroy it. If according to the development of history, the Jingshi Luoyang was to be burned down by fire, and the entire Jingshi Luoyang suffered heavy losses, and it was not until after the Three Kingdoms that the Jingshi Luoyang developed. The loss is enormous. But now, Li Wei has seen that the large-scale advance of the Republican Army is a foregone conclusion. In such a situation, it is better to take the initiative to befriend the other party in exchange for greater benefits.

"It seems that this is the case, quickly abandon the capital Luoyang, and take everything in the palace. The jade seal of the country must be found. Dong Zhuo said.

Now that you have decided to give up, you can only do this. However, for Dong Zhuo, the heirloom jade seal cannot be given up. Because it means that he will occupy a certain height. For example, some situations in the future to a higher degree can only become much more favorable in this way.

Li Dao could only agree. In Li Wei's view, the jade seal of the country is not very important. The important thing is that their strength increases, so that they can become much more advantageous. A piece of jade seal, many things may not be able to change much. In such a situation, it is simply impossible for them to have greater development.

At this time, the main force of the Fifth Infantry Division of the Republican Army was only less than thirty miles away from the Yellow River. But here they had to stop. Because there was a problem with their logistical supply.

"Damn it. What is the problem with our logistical supplements? Cao Ang asked the officer of the logistics supply.

"Roads. The roads here are poor, and some vehicles have suffered a lot of damage as they move quickly. They have a lot of losses in axles, wheels. The vehicles behind can't move quickly, there's no way. The officer replied. Cao Ang expressed great regret about this.

When they were fighting, they weren't in a bad situation. After all, the opponents they encountered were not even third-rate local forces, and even if they encountered a strong landlord armed force and used explosives, they could force the other party to surrender. The IRA is moving very well. But it just went too well. As a result, at some point, they encountered some unsatisfactory places, such as logistics and supplies, and their situation was in a very difficult state to solve. In such a situation, they simply cannot develop to a certain extent, which is for their situation. It will create a very disadvantageous situation, and in such a situation, if you want to develop to a greater extent, you must solve the problem of their logistical supply.

Because the previous battle was too smooth, the situation of ammunition consumption was very alarming. Moreover, they are going to advance again, to cross the Yellow River. Although the patrols found some boats, this was not enough for a larger army to cross the Yellow River. The Republican Army was temporarily intercepted here.

And in the rear of the 5th Infantry Division, the militia was being formed to receive more localities, townships, county seats. Sweep away the fleeing armed chiefs and others.

At the same time, they had to organize themselves to protect the labor force that had been organized in the villages where the roads were built.

"The people from Old Poplar Village, all come here. Come this way. All follow the red flag, this is our red flag. An old man shouted loudly. Several young juniors organized loudly.

The beginning of spring has not yet come, and even if it is, they cannot cultivate, and the seeds have been robbed. Eat relief food. They feel uneasy. They were already doing this kind of work before the IRA gave the order to build roads. For example, help unloading goods, guarding, spying on intelligence, etc.

After the order was given. After learning that you can get enough food, farm tools, seeds, and possibly land. The peasants of the various villages quickly organized. They established the so-called Labor Company.

The elderly, the children, the women, as long as there is a labor force, are organized, and they level the roads at an alarming rate. Speed up road construction. Such a speed is hard for others to believe. This is for anyone. I think it's an impossible possibility.

The war situation was much better than they had ever been.

Because in the past, they worked but never paid, and the Republican Army not only helped them, but also paid them, which made them work harder and harder. Many roads are levelled even late into the night. Under such circumstances, efforts are being made to improve the logistical supply situation of the Republican Army.

This was something that the IRA had not anticipated.

Li Jiazhuang, War Department.

"They can hand over the complete Luoyang to us, but at present, what we are most worried about is that the Kwantung Coalition Army, once the defense in Bishui Pass is opened at once, they will be the first to enter Luoyang at once, in that case, everything we have will be in vain." Jia Xu said helplessly.

Such fears do exist and are possible, and the IRA must face the situation in a timely manner.

"Hmm." Shang Wu nodded,

"This kind of thing does happen, and we should make some preparations to prevent it from happening." Shang Wu continued.

"I suggest that the militia forces in Luoyang, the capital division, be mobilized to maintain law and order, and at the same time. Stop the offensive of the Kwantung coalition forces. Jia Xu suggested. But will they be able to stop? Jia Xu was very worried about this.
