More than a dozen blazing torches lit up the conference hall, and Hu Xuan, as a Zhonglang general, was naturally the commander in command of the whole army, and at this moment he was summoning Hua Xiong, Li Su, Zhao Cen and Yang Zhen, the former tiger prison guard, to come to discuss the matter.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are waiting for the Tiger Prison Pass before the order of the Taishi, and I also ask you to work together to repel the Kwantung coalition army and raise the prestige of my Xiliang." Hu Xuan said with a solemn expression.

Hua Xiong shouted in an arrogant tone: "Your Excellency, you don't have to worry, there are hundreds of thousands of people in Kanto, I regard them as grass mustard, and at the end of tomorrow, the general will lead his troops out of the customs to kill him, and behead several of his enemy generals to sacrifice to adults." ”

"General Huaxiong is brave and fearless, and it is not a problem to behead the enemy generals of the coalition army." Li Su, the cavalry captain, stroked his chin lightly and said with a slight smile: "However, the coalition army has a large number of people, and our army still cannot be underestimated." ”

Hua Xiong was about to show his might and behead the generals of the coalition army to make a name for himself, but was suddenly interrupted by Li Su, but he said sullenly: "The coalition army is strong, and our army is not weak, isn't Lord Captain Cavalry afraid?" ”

"Huaxiong, Hugh is talking nonsense." Hu Xuan chuckled in his heart, and hurriedly scolded Hua Xiong in a low voice, before turning his head and asking Li Su with a smile: "The Taishi ordered us to garrison the Tiger Prison Pass, and it was precisely to entrust us with a heavy responsibility, so we naturally can't disappoint the Taishi. ”

It is not that Li Su's official position is higher than Hu Xuan, which makes Hu Xuan afraid, but that Li Su is known as a smiling tiger in the Xiliang Army, and the methods of the Yin people are invincible, coupled with his ability to speak well, except for Li Ru, I am afraid that Dong Zhuo is the most trusted person, even Niu Fu cannot be compared with him.

And Hua Xiong is a person under his account, so he naturally doesn't want to be remembered by Li Su, so he reprimands Hua Xiong with words, and then takes advantage of the situation to give Li Su a step down.

Li Supi glanced at Hua Xiong with a smile, and then walked to the front of the map, pointed to the map and said: "Although the coalition army is known as a million army, according to a certain person, there are only more than 100,000 soldiers who can really fight. Among the princes, Kong Rong, Zhang Chao, Yuan Xian, Qiao Mao and others are just empty talkers, and they have no ability to fight, so there is nothing to worry about. ”

"Most of the rest of the people are just crowds, ambitious people, and there is no need to worry. Among the coalition forces, the only people who really have combat experience and great power are Eryuan, Sun Jian, Tao Qian, Gongsun Zhan, and Liu Yu. However, Gongsun Chan and Liu Yu have always been at odds and will not work together, so it is not enough to worry about these two lines of soldiers and horses. ”

"Although Yuan Shao's power is great, Yuan Shao is suspicious and ambitious, and he will never do his best. As for Yuan Shu, although there are many soldiers and generals, it is a pity that the orders are different, and he is not afraid. But..."

"But what?" Hu Xuan asked in a condensed voice.

Li Su pondered for a while before he said: "There are two passers-by in the coalition army, and they are a little difficult to see through. ”

"Which two people can't be seen through by adults?" Hua Xiong is a typical simple-minded with well-developed limbs, empty martial arts, but not good at strategy, so he couldn't help asking.

Li Su glanced at Hua Xiong and pondered: "One way is King Chen Liu Pet, and the other way is naturally Liu Bian, King of Hongnong." Liu Wei and our army can be described as mortal enemies, needless to say, but the thoughts of King Chen and Liu Chong are not easy to say. ”

"Liu Pet won't say it for the time being." Hu Xuan said in a condensed voice: "According to the meaning of the cavalry captain, only Sun Jian, Tao Qian, and Liu Wei are the fierce enemies of our army?" ”

"No~" Li Su shook his head and said: "Although Liu Pet can't see through it, according to the detailed report, Liu Pet's command can be said to be the most elite soldiers in all the coalition forces, and they must not be underestimated, but even so, they have a fatal weakness!" ”

"Achilles' heel?" Zhao Cen, who had never spoken, looked moved and asked, "My lord means that the orders of the coalition forces are inconsistent, and it is difficult to form a joint force?" ”

"That's not right!" Without waiting for Li Su to answer, Hu Xuan said loudly, "Although some people in the coalition army value reputation and some value reality, it can be said that most of them are ambitious people, but with the prestige of the Yuan Shao family and the name of Liu Weihan's family, with these two mediating in the middle, it is not difficult for the coalition army to achieve the unification of orders." ”

"Could it be the supply of food and grass for the coalition forces?" Yang Zhen, the original guard of the Tiger Prison Pass, pondered.

Li Su said: "Jizhou is rich, with Han Fu's dispatch, the coalition army has no worries about food and grass!" ”

"Okay, don't adjust everyone's appetite for the Captain." Hu Xuan waved his hand and said, "General Ben Zhonglang also wants to know the Achilles heel of the coalition forces. ”

"Hehe~" Li Su said with a smile: "Although the coalition army is strong, there is no cavalry, and the mobility is weak. However, in my Xiliang army, most of them are cavalry, and they have strong mobility! ”

"Could it be..."Hu Xuan's eyes lit up, and he said eagerly: "Does the cavalry captain mean to defend the tiger prison with a small number of elite infantry, and then spare the enemy army with the strength of our cavalry's mobility?" ”

"Yes, yes." Li Su smiled and nodded.

Yang Zhen was a little worried and said: "The Taishi ordered us to wait to defend the Tiger Prison Pass, if we rush to attack, I am afraid that the Taishi will blame me." ”

Li Su shook his head and said: "It's not that the Taishi is to blame, but that we have few soldiers, and to implement the strategy below, we need at least 100,000 troops, otherwise we will definitely lose if we rush out." ”

Hu Xuan frowned, and said categorically: "Since this is the case, the general will play the Taishi and then make a decision!" ”

。。。。。。

Although there are candles in this era, it is not like the white ash of later generations, but mainly yellow beeswax, but the technology is not mature enough, and it is often extinguished, so most people still love to use mutton fat oil lamps.

Of course, it is not appropriate to use mutton fat oil lamps here, after all, the light is too weak, only to use torches for lighting, the most important thing is that more than 100 torches are burned together, and the temperature in the village has increased a lot.

Liu Wei sat in his position and watched coldly, Huangfu Song sat next to him, it stands to reason that the people present are standing honestly except for the princes from all walks of life, but Huangfu Song's prestige is too high, and he is old, Liu Wei is showing great respect for Huangfu Song, so he naturally wants to give Liu Wei face and prepare for Huangfu Song.

Generally speaking, since the alliance has come to this, often at sunset, they go back to their homes to find their own mothers, and go back to the camp at night, but today is a little special, the coalition forces gather here, naturally to send troops to attack Dong, and now the alliance leader has also been arranged, and the mobilization of grain and grass and other things have also been arranged, and the next step is of course to discuss how to send troops.

Marching and fighting, it is not a swarm of bees rushing up together, otherwise hundreds of thousands of people will rush up in a swarm, let alone kill the enemy, I am afraid that the loss of trampling on each other will be enough to choke, and then how to command a swarm of bees rushing up? When to advance and when to retreat are all problems, so since the pre-Qin period, a set of ideas have been sorted out for marching and fighting.

The topic of discussion today is a series of questions such as who is the pioneer and what the side should do.
