It is no wonder that Liu Zhang's first order was to replace these troops for rest.

Looking at everyone's sad looks, Liu Zhang also felt a burst of powerlessness, although Dong Zhuo suffered two defeats in a row and suffered heavy losses, but he especially had the strength to fight, counting his own strength with his fingers, there were still a lot of people, there were 48,900 people, but half of them were injured, and it was difficult to recover without more than half a month of cultivation, even if those lightly injured could barely fight, but it would seriously reduce the combat effectiveness. Obviously, Dong Zhuo will not wait until Liu Zhang is recuperating before attacking!

Looking at Jia Xu, who was speechless, although his expression did not fluctuate at all, but I don't know why, Liu Zhang always felt that he had a way, so he asked: "Wen He, our army is in a difficult situation right now, do you have a way to worry about loneliness?" ”

Jia Xu got up and bowed: "My lord, I have a skill, but I don't know if my lord can use it!" ”

Liu Zhang couldn't help but secretly vomit, and came to this set again, but said with a smile on his face: "Great, Wen He has a clever plan, hurry up!" ”

"Lord, my subordinates think that the lord still has a soldier that has not been used!"

Liu Zhang thought about it carefully when he heard this, but he didn't realize that there was still that army of soldiers and horses fishing, and said puzzledly: "Wenhe, please speak clearly!" ”

"Lord, you forgot, there are still 20,000 thousands of prisoners in our camp......"

"Capture or refill?" Liu Zhang was suddenly overjoyed, and couldn't help but think of an important law during the Liberation War in later generations.

Shan Fu pondered for a moment and said: "The subordinates are too risky to use Wen and this plan, the cruelty of the Xiliang Army is known to the world, this kind of person is many unruly and unruly, and it is extremely difficult to tame without a long period of subtle influence." They were captured for only a few days, and even if they verbally agreed to join our army, no one could have predicted what they thought in their hearts, and if they were requisitioned, once they fought back on the battlefield, our army would be wiped out! Don't forget, two days ago, they and we were still undying enemies, the Xiliang Army is their robe, just two days to ask them to join our army's camp, to kill the Xiliang Army who was still the Pao Ze brothers two days ago, this change is too big, no one can adapt, subordinates think this is impossible! ”

Xi Zhicai also said: "This plan is indeed too bold, if it succeeds, it can add 20,000 new forces, but if you are not careful, the outcome is unpredictable!" ”

Guo Jia said: "Jia thinks that he is bold enough, and he doesn't want Wen He to use troops even more wildly, which is breathtaking!" He wasn't mocking Jia Xu, he was really shocked by Jia Xu's boldness, at least he didn't dare to do such a thing.

Xun You, Man Chong and others all advised Liu Zhang to think twice, and Liu Zhang suddenly calmed down, yes, the PLA dared to use the tactics of "taking prisoners, making up for it, and fighting immediately", that was because the PLA was a force that really thought about the poor, and it relied on the powerful political propaganda offensive of the PLA to extensively carry out activities such as bitter meetings among the prisoners, and carried out land reform in the liberated areas, planting class hatred in the hearts of those poor captured soldiers, so that they were willing to join the PLA to fight for the future of themselves and their relatives. Liu Zhang thinks that he is not so great and does not have such a strong political skill......

Thinking about it from heart to heart, if Liu Zhang was one of the captives, he would not attack the Xiliang army, this method was too variable, and he didn't dare to nod his head easily.

Jia Xu saw that everyone did not support this strategy, and said: "My lord, my subordinates have been to the prisoner of war camp in the past two days, and among the more than 23,000 prisoners captured, about 10,000 were farmers more than ten years ago, they were forced by Dong Zhuo to put down their hoes and pick up their knives with knives and guns, they have lived in Guanzhong for a long time, their status is humble, and they have been repeatedly oppressed by Dong Zhuo, it can be said that they have suffered deeply, and they all hate Dong Zhuo and his ruling group, just because of their weak ability, it is difficult to resist, and they have to bend to become thieves. Many of these people had heard about Yizhou's new policies and had longed for Yizhou for a long time, but they were not only frightened but rejoiced after being captured. During the visit, the subordinates heard them secretly talking from time to time, and they were all looking forward to the lord leading the benevolent and righteous teachers to level the pass as soon as possible and rescue their troubled families...... The subordinates proposed to requisition the prisoners, not to requisition those Xiliang veterans, but these recruits, they have no sense of belonging to Dong Zhuo, but they have admired the lord for a long time, as long as the lord has a word, he will be able to collect his heart and use it for the lord! ”

It's good, but Liu Zhang thought of one more thing, and said: "These people are indeed available, but Wen He also said to you, they were still farmers ten days ago, and it was Dong Zhuo who drove ducks to be forcibly conscripted as soldiers, they have no training, and their combat effectiveness is almost zero, even if they join our army, how much substantial help can they provide to our army?" Let Lone sacrifice them in vain like Dong Zhuo, Lone can't do it! ”

Jia Xu said again: "The lord's benevolence and righteousness are really the blessing of all the people, but those who win the world should be informal, in the past, Gaozu and Chu Xiang competed for hegemony, and even their wives and children and old fathers could be abandoned, and finally won the world." On the other hand, Chu Xiang, the strength of the champions, is the head of the kings, but because of the benevolence of the woman missed the world, there will be a big defeat, Wujiang slash, the lord is a descendant of the Liu family, should take all the people as the mind, imitate the ancestors, sacrifice the small self, and achieve the big self! ”

Jia Xu said this is a little unkind, Liu Bang's file is quite disgraceful, although it is recorded in history, but there is a Han Dynasty, no one dares to discuss, he even openly said it in front of Liu Zhang, a descendant of the Liu family, if you change someone, I am afraid that Jia Xu will not be killed, and he will have to spend his life in prison, fortunately Liu Zhang is not an ordinary person, and he from the Hou family has never had much respect for Liu Bang, a ruffian, since you can do it, don't you let others say it? And he knows very well that Jia Xu's idea actually represents the thinking of most people in this era, if any prince in the late Han Dynasty was in the same situation, I am afraid that he would not hesitate to sacrifice the more than 10,000 recruits as cannon fodder. But Liu Zhang is no one else, he is a new youth of the 21st century who was born under the red flag and grew up in the spring breeze, and he wants to let him sacrifice more than 10,000 people in vain, even if he thinks he has integrated into this era, he still can't pass the level in his heart......

"Wenhe, apart from this, is there any other way?" Liu Zhang said.

Jia Xu shook his head, but said in his mouth: "Then the only way to solve the problem is to start with the enemy!" ”

Xun You's eyes lit up suddenly: "Wenhe means Li Le......"

Jia Xu bowed slightly, and said: "Exactly, right now, our army has won successive battles, and the destruction of the Xiliang army is imminent, Li Le should think about himself!" ”

"Clever plan, as long as Li Le defects to our army, and when Li Le leads the army to fight back in the decisive battle, Dong Zhuo will definitely be defeated!" Guo Jia also said.

Liu Zhang saw that everyone approved of this plan, but Zhang Xiu and Hu Che'er were full of displeasure, and they already understood why in their hearts, and said: "Li Le, this person is guilty of a lot, and the world has long been intolerable, and if such a person who rides on the wall joins our army, I am afraid that it will bring disaster to our army in the future!" ”

Shan Fu said with a smile: "The lord is too worried, in the opinion of his subordinates, the lord can allow Li Le to make a lot of profits, and when Dong Zhuo is solved, Li Le is not at the disposal of the lord!" ”

Liu Zhang said: "The ancients did not hesitate to buy horse bones, if they got rid of Li Le in the future, wouldn't they do the opposite?" I'm afraid that the scholars will misunderstand and refuse to be used by loneliness! ”

Shan Fu smiled again: "It's okay, the lord spares Li Le Nai Xin, but there is a saying called 'the king wants the minister to die, the minister has to die', Li Lezhu has been abused for many years, and he has a lot of blood debts, even if the lord has the heart to spare his life, but the saint does not allow it, the lord is a courtier, how can he resist and disobey the order?" ”

Liu Zhang couldn't help laughing, Shan Fu is basically a scoundrel, Emperor Xian is now a puppet, even if he accepts Dong Zhuo together, Emperor Xian is helpless, he can only choose to ignore it! However, it is feasible to get rid of Li Le in the name of Emperor Xian, and with the fig leaf of Emperor Xian, others will have nothing to say! As for accepting Li Le as a minister, Liu Zhang never thought about it, not because he valued Zhang Xiu and others, but because Li Le had a deep enmity with Zhang Xiu, and rejected Li Le in order to appease Zhang Xiu and others, but it was because Li Le was really guilty of not being punished. Not to mention anything else, in recent days alone, the crimes committed by Li Le in martial arts are heinous, and Liu Zhang, who came from later generations, convicted Li Le in his heart*! On the day of Hu Cai's beheading, Li Le connived at the generals to commit adultery and plunder, more than 7,000 martial arts people were killed, and more than 3,000 women were raped; Two days ago, in order to entertain Dong Zhuo, Li Le once again robbed the people in the city as military funds, and plundered girls for sexual pleasure......

Full of favor said: "Favor thinks that it is not necessary, although Yuan Zhi's plan can be justified to get rid of Li Le, but it is still inevitable to damage the name of the lord, if it is used by the enemy in the future, I am afraid that it will not be conducive to the lord to surrender and rebel." I think that the Xiliang Army is now in decline, and the fall is just around the corner, Li Lezhi and his ilk are in a high position, and they know that they are guilty and not tolerated by the world, so they are afraid that they will fight the trapped beasts. In this case, why don't we contact General Li Le, these people have a low status, the crime is relatively small, and since ancient times, there is a law that is not responsible, they should understand very well, they are just small people, few people in the world know about them, killing or not killing has nothing to do with the overall situation, presumably their concerns will not be as much as Li Le, as long as they make it clear to them that they are willing to take the initiative to surrender and change their ways, but they are not to blame, if they resist to the end, the end is to bury Dong Zhuo, presumably they will make the right choice! ”

Liu Zhang thought about it and thought that Manzhong's method was more reasonable, but he still wanted to ask everyone's opinions first, and most of the people agreed with Manzhong's strategy, especially Zhang Xiu and Hu Che'er were the most active.

When leaving Liu Zhang's tent, Gao Shun smiled and said to Zhang Xiu and Hu Che'er: "General Zhang, General Hu, you can rest assured this time!" The lord will never let others be wronged! ”

Zhang Xiu and Hu Che'er knew that Gao Shun was talking about how Liu Zhang treated Li Le, Zhang Xiu said with a slight embarrassment: "Back to the general, the last general ......" Zhang Xiu actually knew that Li Le was a heavy minister of Xiliang, and the direct surrender had a huge impact, and it hit the morale of Xiliang even more, but after the events of the day, let him and Li Le be ministers in the same court, he really couldn't do it, although he didn't directly oppose Liu Zhang's recruitment of Li Le, but he thought so in his heart, which made him feel as if he was abolishing the public because of private affairs, and he was a little ashamed to think about it at this time.

Gao Shun said with a smile: "General Zhang doesn't have to worry about it, as a seven-foot man, I have clear grievances, General Zhang and others are in danger of being poisoned by Li Le, and it is human nature to hate it, and Li Le and his ilk have a despicable personality, if they join our army, it will be harmful and useless......"

"The last general is really ashamed, the last general is the minister of Yizhou, but he has a small grievance and is in danger of misunderstanding the lord's ......"
