Zhang Liao, Yan Gang and others entered Anping County, and then came to the back hall of the county government, at this time, the kitchen had already arranged the meal, there were not many tricks but it was very real, Liu Yi was always very strict in terms of food, and the soldiers bled on the battlefield! Desperately, it is too much to say that you can't eat a good meal, but at this time, it is wartime, and Yan Gang and Hou Cheng and others will not care.

"Wen Yuan, has Yang Ming's body been found?" After a few people sat down, they began to feast, and after a long march, they were indeed hungry in their stomachs, but when they saw the plate of dried meat on the table, Yan Gang chewed and swallowed quickly, but he listened to it, this was Yang Ming's favorite back then, and it was said that he was still a habit brought out by the military advisor, and he had already forced himself to stop thinking about it, but at this time, the food on the table full of people became tasteless, and he immediately put down the ox leg in his hand and asked Zhang Liao in a deep voice.

"The previous lord went to capture Yan Xing, and used this person to exchange for the wife and children of the commander of Yang, and repeatedly said that he wanted the coalition army to treat the corpse of the commander well, if it were not for the hot weather at this time, the lord would definitely welcome it back, and on the first day of Luoyang, he personally sacrificed for the commander of Yang, in fact, he had a chance to break through at that time, but he blamed himself and the loss of Hangu and had to be broken off for the commander of Liao....With Liao's view, Yang commander's loyalty and righteousness, and the courage to fight is indeed worthy of my emulation!" Zhang Liao also stopped the movements of his hand when he heard this, and said in a deep voice, Liu Yi's behavior after entering Luoyang infected every soldier and general in Sizhou, and also let them see the affectionate side of the lord.

"Well, Commander Yang is loyal to the death and does not live up to the grace of the lord, the loss of Hangu is not his sin, and he will say the same in front of the lord, since he is here today, Yan Mou said that he has to settle this account with the Han and Zhang coalition forces, and he will definitely take Hangu and return the body of Commander Yang to his hometown!" Yan Gang nodded, his expression became invigorated again, he and several of Liu Yi's old subordinates were very close to each other, and this time he came to hate his comrades, and he also wanted to let his leaves fall back to his roots!

"What General Yan said is very much, the lord asked me to wait here as soon as possible must be a great plan, General Zhang, this meal is almost eaten, now the war is imminent, I will wait until I arrive at the place a moment earlier to help the lord, the two of us have already obtained the general order, I don't know if there is any change?" Hearing Yan Gang talk about Yang Ming, Gao Ran Hou Cheng immediately stopped his movements even though he didn't know it, no matter how he died in his office, he was worthy of respect, Gao Ran said after hearing this.

"General Gao has a heart for the public, Liao admires it in his heart, but you and General Yan and Zhong Ping have worked hard, and it is not too late to rest here for a day before setting off, and Liao has already arranged everything. Zhang Liao also appreciated Gao Ran's words, and said with a smile.

"Wen Yuan, you and I don't have to be polite, this time Yan and General Gao have been controlling the speed of the march and paying attention to the rest of the soldiers in the last few days, now the military situation is urgent, I don't need to wait for a day, as long as I rest until the third watch, I can send troops, and this guide is still bothering Wen Yuan to arrange!" Yan Gang couldn't help nodding when he heard Gao Ran's words, a long-distance march is not fast, and it needs to be able to fight!

"Well, so you see." Zhang Liao saw Yan Gang's resolute face, Gao Lan Hou Cheng also agreed, and immediately got up and came to the side of the map of Sizhou, and everyone also came to his side, at this time, the drawings of that place had been marked with various colored lines, except for many marching routes.

"The intention of the main public army division is to let Zhongfu's white horse battalion penetrate to the suburbs of Liuxian and hide, but there are changes in the marching route, General Yan can divide his men and horses into three groups, and then converge after reaching the suburbs of Liuxian by this black route; General Gao is also general, the Tiger Guard Battalion also has to divide the troops into four ways to take this green route to the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the effect is to avoid the enemy's scout detection as much as possible, and to Liaoguan so that the march can be faster, I will send a number of cavalry troops to cruise around the enemy army, in order to help the two generals on their trip, as for Zhongping, you will leave half of the 10,000 and state battalions with Zhang, and the rest will be led by you to Hongnong, General Fan will answer here, and the specific battle will also be explained! Zhang Liao's finger map is very detailed, although this method of dividing troops to advance is fast, it is easy to be taken advantage of by the enemy, if it is not for the desire of the people in Sizhou, Zhang Liao's use of troops will not be so, when it comes to the understanding of the terrain of Sizhou, who can compare to him who led the Yanyun battalion to sit here for a long time?

"Well, what Wen Yuan said is extremely true, if I look at the terrain on the map, General Gao and I go all out, we can make a detour to the enemy's flank within ten days, the lord must arrange this way to cut off the enemy's retreat with Tingxuan, but I don't know what the lord has to retreat from the coalition army? What happens when Tingxuan and I arrive? Yan Gang Gao Ran and the others' eyes have been moving with Zhang Liao's fingers, in their opinion, this is indeed a way to speed up the march, and the main army division has to listen to Zhang Liao's dispatch first, Yan Gang's words about ten days is a conservative and steady estimate, at this time has officially entered the battlefield, and the march in Youzhou and Zhou's own territory is very different, although it requires speed, it also requires stability!

"You wait to pack up and retreat for the time being, I have important matters to discuss with the generals." When Zhang Liao heard this, he first spoke to the guards in the hall, and only after they withdrew from the hall together did he say to a few people: "Brother Zhongfu has good eyesight, but the heavy responsibility of cutting off the enemy's retreat is likely to be borne only by the White Horse Battalion, and General Liao and Fan will also help, if the situation is as our army expects, General Yan's strategy is to delay rather than defend to the death, and to delay the speed of the enemy army as much as possible, the Yunling area is the only way for the enemy to pass, and the terrain here is complicated, so that Brother Zhongfu's White Horse Battalion can play a role."

"More than 200,000 enemy troops, 70,000 Xiliang iron cavalry, well, Yan Mou will definitely stop it with all his might!" Yan Gang heard that after looking at the terrain on the map for a long time, he said that the art of war is cloudy, and it should not be stopped if he returns to his master, but since Liu Yi has put this in his hands, he must do his best to complete the trust of the lord.

"In the past, the lord's army division and our others discussed, if the enemy army wants to retreat automatically, in addition to Luoyang Jiancheng let it attack, it will cut off his grain route, here will be handed over to Liao and General Fan for it, the two generals only need to recuperate, and only when the time comes, they can attack, if the enemy retreats, the lord's guild will personally lead the army in the rear to threaten, and the alien cavalry and the state battalion threaten its two wings, as long as Zhongfu can block the enemy or slow down, the goal of General Gao's Tiger Guard Battalion is."

"Hangu Pass!" After hearing Zhang Liao's words, Fang Gao Ran has been thinking about the situation of the war, with Luoyang Jiancheng as a barrier, as long as it can cut off or harass the food route of the coalition army, it will be difficult to hold on to it after a long time, and he does not have to participate in the battle, how will the main public army division arrange the Tiger Guard Battalion? After some contemplation, he gained something, and when Zhang Liao said this, he also spoke in a low voice, and he was speaking in unison.

"Yes, it is Hangu, at the moment the enemy occupies the superior army of troops, there are still 10,000 soldiers defending this pass, Han Sui Zhang Lu also looks at this back road quite tightly, if we talk about the siege of the city should be the second battalion of the tiger guard Liaodong first, now the Liaodong battalion with the Jingfang soldiers out of Qingzhou, the responsibility of threatening Hangu will fall on General Gao, there are still 3,000 soldiers in the Qinglong battalion who guarded the Hangu that day, there are still 3,000 new commanders Liao Hua Liao Yuanjian command, the main army division bullied the coalition army did not dare to besiege the city, A few days ago, more than 10,000 soldiers of the Qinglong Battalion and the Yanyun Battalion had been sent out of Luoyang, and they would help General Gao capture Hangu, but before the specific troops, there was still a need for the order of the main general, and General Gao should be prepared with two hands, one is to attack the city, and the other is to block the enemy! Zhang Liao's eyes showed appreciation, and he said in detail. Hangu Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and its danger is not under the tiger prison, so Liu Yi still has a certain hesitation about whether he can take this pass, although the Youzhou army is fine, after all, there are more than 10,000 enemy troops on it, if it can't be attacked, it will not be good if it is broken through by the coalition army, so this method also depends on the situation.

"The main army division is thoughtful, with the danger of Hangu, even if our army can attack the fortification, it will take a lot of time, and the coalition army will definitely rush to the aid when they hear the news, there is no danger to defend from its large camp to Hangu, and the White Horse Battalion of General Yan alone may not be able to stop it, unless the coalition army has been dealt a major blow before, otherwise this method of closing the door and beating the dog is ingenious, but it is also easy to hurt itself!" Bold words are to have a limit, without full confidence and effective strategy will become a nonsense atmosphere, Gao Shun, who was famous for his good attack, gathered all the elite in the army to attack the tiger prison, several times the strength of the army, there are still ten days of words, now the danger of Hangu is not under the tiger prison, Gao Ran must also act extremely cautiously, and any commitment made by the person will have a huge impact on the change of the overall situation!

"General Gao has seen it finely, and what the main army division is planning is also here, but whether or not they want to capture Hangu, the two generals must arrive at the place ordered by the lord as soon as possible, and now the battle situation Liao has explained in detail with the two, which is the same as the need to go to the army to prepare for tomorrow morning!" Zhang Liao nodded secretly when he heard this, no wonder the main attack attached great importance to this person, it was not easy to be calm in this battle, and he immediately said no more, and went to the army with everyone to arrange what was needed, just as Yan Gang said, the reinforcements arrived at the position a moment earlier to increase the success of the battle.

Taking Hangu and trapping the coalition forces in Sizhou to close the door and fight the dog is undoubtedly the most ideal ending, but the difficulties in the law are self-evident, Zhang Liao is right, Liu Yi and Zhang Hu are full of thoughts and calculations in the past few days are the possibility of using this method, his benefits are obvious, if Han Sui and Zhang Lu can stay in Sizhou and annihilate the more than 200,000 allied troops not only the crisis in Sizhou can be solved, but the Xiliang land of Chang'an is also at your fingertips, and then you only need to let Ma Chao lead all the way to the division, With the reputation of the Ma family and the outcome of the battle of Sizhou, these two places must be decided, and how can Hanzhong compete with Liu Yi after losing so many elites, let alone benefit the state behind!

First of all, the attacking side must have enough troops to steadily suppress the defenders, and secondly, it is necessary to separate the coalition army from the Hangu battlefield and deal with it separately, if it is unfavorable to attack Hangu or take a long time, once the coalition army approaches this pass, the siege soldiers have to retreat, Liu Yi does not have a strong force in his hands to ensure that the siege soldiers have enough time, and there is still the possibility of attacking.

If Gao Ran's troops are put into the encirclement of the coalition army, it can greatly increase the possibility of defeating or even annihilating the enemy army, but they may also face the desperate fight of the coalition army, which is more than 200,000 troops, and huge casualties must be inevitable. At this time, Liu Yi and Zhang Hu in Luoyang City were also considering and planning.
