Chapter 537: The Allies Change Their Tactics (1st Update)

After the defeat of the Allied forces, Yuan Shao re-elevated the account that night.

"Everyone, the crusade against Dong Zhuo must not be given up halfway, we must cheer up, and we must not let Dong Zhuo escape back to Chang'an." After Yuan Shao gathered his manpower, he said solemnly.

Yuan Shao's words are not to inspire everyone, after fighting with Xiliang for so long, everyone here is a human spirit, these words are just a superficial reason.

A group of people talked nonsense for a long time, and only after verbally crusading against Dong Zhuo did they get to the point.

"Now that Xiliang is still strong, there is a threat from Lu Bu and the Flying Bear Army, do you have a way to deal with it?" Yuan Shao asked.

A group of people began to discuss again, and several of the princes were pure literati, and they couldn't come up with any good solutions.

"Alliance leader, my lords, we should attack Dong Zhuo in many ways. As long as Dong Zhuo moves, it will be full of flaws, and we will send a small force to attack and harass day and night, and we will be able to annihilate the enemy on the road and prevent Dong Zhuo from reaching Chang'an. Seeing that no one had come up with a feasible plan, Cao Cao stood up and put forward his opinion.

Cao Cao then elaborated on his strategy.

There is not only one road to Chang'an in the west, there is a big road at the same time, there are countless small roads, the army naturally can't take the small road, but the small force can.

Dong Zhuo's army is huge and not fast, as long as the allies take a small road, they can run to the front, and then attack them day and night, so that the Xiliang army can disperse its forces.

Then, the Allied army followed the Xiliang Group in the rear, so that they had to use a large number of troops to confront the Allied army, so that the Xiliang army would not be enough, and there would be more flaws exposed at that time, and as long as one or two flaws were grasped, the Xiliang army could be severely damaged.

Cao Cao's strategy was actually the attack and harassment strategy used by Ye Chen before, the Xiliang army was too large, and there were naturally many flaws, but Ye Chen's troops were insufficient, and the effect was not good, relying on the mobility of the Yellow River to attack and harass day and night.

Cao Cao also proposed to continue to rent Ye Chen's ships to attack the Xiliang army from both sides.

Cao Cao's strategy was quickly adopted by the Allies, and then began to be implemented.

The difference is that when they went to Ye Chen to rent a boat, Ye Chen flatly refused, and the reason for Ye Chen's refusal was that the fleet was receiving people and was not available at all.

Ye Chen refused with righteousness, the allies had no way to persecute, and more importantly, they knew that persecution would not work.

Although Ye Chen refused, the strategy of the allied forces could still be implemented, and he began to send more than 20,000 troops, divided into dozens of units, and hurried day and night to attack and harass the Xiliang army through the small road.

"Second brother, it seems that this alliance has begun to change its strategy." After Ye Chen refused to charter the ship from the allies, Tai Shici said.

"If you don't change your strategy after suffering a loss, you're a fool, let them fight, let's just make a fortune in silence." Ye Chen said with a smile.

"Lord, what are we going to do next? There was no fight again. Xu Huang said.

"The next thing is to bring all these people back, and in just a few days, at least 100,000 of these millions of people have died. It doesn't matter how the allies and the Xiliang army fight us, anyway, we have already got what we want. Ye Chen said indifferently.

The next day, sure enough, Dong Zhuo and the others started to set off, but the speed of the baggage team was still very slow.

Xu Rong still led the army on the way to the west, blocking the pursuit of the Allied forces, but the Allied forces seemed to be in no hurry and confronted them.

"Meng De, this Xiliang army didn't take a single person away this time, why is this?" Cao Ren asked Cao Cao.

"Alas, I'm afraid that Dong Zhuo has reached an agreement with Ye Chen, Ye Chen is a businessman, he doesn't make money, and he refused our charter, I'm afraid that Dong Zhuo will give him better conditions.

Cao Cao sighed, this Ye Chen was originally the most active in courting Dong, but now he has also given up.

"A businessman is a businessman, and he is unreliable at a critical time." Xiahou Yuan muttered dissatisfiedly.

Cao Cao didn't care about Ye Chen, anyway, Ye Chen wouldn't pick them out and obstruct them, he set his sights on chasing Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo didn't go far in one day, and he couldn't go far, and the people didn't bring it, but Dong Zhuo had to bring the ministers and ministers, as well as Liu Xie, who was seriously injured and could die at any time.

The first day passed very peacefully, and Dong Zhuo's mood was much better, after all, he was trapped in the middle of the road for so long, and he could finally go back.

There was nothing special when I camped at night, and it was still not normal.

But in the second half of the night, several allied forces suddenly appeared, attacking Xiliang's team, and they were unprepared at first, and Xiliang was attacked in several places, and the losses were not small.

Li Ru was shocked, but soon knew where the allies were coming from, these were small forces, and they must have caught up from the side path.

In this way, it will be difficult to do, more than half of the army of the Xiliang Army has to defend against the Allied army behind, as well as to protect Dong Zhuo and protect the treasure, and the troops are simply not enough.

The Allies began to harass the Xiliang Army all night, and the Xiliang Army was not allowed to rest all night.

The Xiliang Army seemed to have returned to the days when they were harassed by Ye Chen day and night.

"This won't work, we're going to have to collapse." Li Ru knew very well that if he was attacked day and night in the wild, the soldiers would be tired in less than two days, and there would not be much combat power left at that time.

The attack of the allies is not like Ye Chen, Ye Chen is a group of dozens of people, the main reason is that they can't rest well, sometimes they just attack and retreat immediately, the Xiliang army just doesn't rest well, and some rest.

And the allies are at least a few hundred people, and they will charge and fight as soon as they come up, so where does the Xiliang army still have any mind to sleep.

More than a dozen places were attacked by the allies overnight, and the casualties on both sides reached thousands, and the Xiliang army could not rest all night.

By the day of the next day, Xiliangjun was very tired and couldn't walk in the morning, so he could only stop and rest for half a day.

It was only in the afternoon that I began to hurry, and I could only walk twenty or thirty miles in an afternoon.

The Xiliang army seems to have fallen into another crisis, and if it can't break the situation quickly, it is very dangerous.

The front was unstable and repeatedly harassed, and Xu Rong couldn't stay there, so he was transferred back to protect the army.

As soon as Xu Rong moved, the allies pressed up.

"Lord, the allies and the Xiliang army are gone, should we catch up and join in the fun?" Xiliang and the allied forces continued to go west, Ye Chen and they did not move, and gradually moved away from the battlefield, which Xu Huang was not used to.

"It just so happens that we are about to start working, these people don't need to be transported by boat, and let them go directly in the direction of Luoyang."

This is not a battlefield, and Ye Chen and they don't need to use the fleet to transport a little bit to let hundreds of thousands of people walk back to Luoyang, which is faster.

And the fleet can pick up people and transport them directly back to Liaodong.

Ye Chen sent a part of the army to guard, and some people began to bring these people back to Luoyang, of course, bringing them back to Luoyang was not to let them live in Luoyang, but to set up a temporary camp in Mengjin in Luoyang, where they could wait for Ye Chen to transport them back to Liaodong.
