After all, no matter who looks at it at this moment, there are only tens of thousands of people under Gao Yang's command at the moment, and most of them are newly recruited soldiers and horses, and their combat effectiveness is worrying. Although he holds the strong city of Luoyang City. But there are hundreds of thousands of troops watching outside!

This huge gap in hard power between the two sides can no longer be smoothed out by using some cunning.

In Jia Xu's eyes, the gap between the two sides in terms of strength is too big. Even if Gao Yang has that kind of fire in his hands that cannot be extinguished, is this kind of anti-heaven thing so many that it can burn these hundreds of thousands of troops? No matter how good things are, they will eventually run out one day.

And the peace of the Xiliang Army is a rare opportunity to divide and disintegrate the invisible alliance between the Kwantung Coalition Army and the Xiliang Army. Once successful, the threat is reduced by half almost instantly. But why did Gao Yang give up?

"Please also make it clear to the lord." Jia Xu respectfully saluted Gao Yang.

He wanted to know what Gao Yang's reliance was at the moment. As Gao Yang's confidant and think tank, he wanted to know what Gao Yang really thought in his mind. Gao Yang has been doing something that is obviously beyond reality recently, which makes Jia Xu vaguely feel that Gao Yang is planning something. But he didn't have a clue.

Gao Yang raised his eyebrows, glanced at Jia Xu, and said slowly, "Don't worry, I have my own arrangements." ”

Jia Xu's biggest role is strategy. His scheming skills are among the top three in the entire Three Kingdoms. Normally, this is absolutely rare, and you have to rely on the big man who is the important minister of the humerus.

It's just that when Gao Yang restored the space-time channel. Jia Xu's role is greatly reduced. Again, in the face of absolute strength. All stratagems have no effect. Just crush it

The current situation of the Xiliang Legion is extremely bad.

Luoyang City, which seemed to be in their hands, turned into a hot potato, and they wanted to eat it but couldn't bear the scorching flames. I can only watch the extremely wealthy Luoyang City close at hand, but it seems to be far away.

And after Yuan Shao arrived with the Kwantung Coalition Army, the Xiliang Army did not want to avoid this once powerful opponent. It's just that they really can't go by this time.

It's the coldest time of the year, and the road from Sili to the Guanlong Plain is covered with snow and ice. Not to mention the difficult road, but more importantly, you can't find anything to eat.

Don't always talk about looting. The real large-scale collection of grain is either hidden by the wealthy. Either that, or in a large city. How much grain can there be in the hands of those poor leaders in the wilderness? Enough for so many armies to eat for a few days?

What do you eat after eating the grain? Steed? And then what? Cannibalism? This icy land wants to bring an army of more than 100,000 people across hundreds of miles to the land of Guanlong. How many days does it take? Once it snows and clogs the roads. It is estimated that these hundreds of thousands of people have to be explained on the road.

The Xiliang Legion's food stock at the moment may barely allow the soldiers to eat their stomachs, but once you add the huge base of hundreds of thousands of war horses. Then this opening is too big.

Li Wei, Guo Yan. Niu Fu and the others quarreled all day long about the next direction of action of the Xiliang Army, and everyone with red faces almost pulled out knives and stabbed each other.

They each had their own ideas, but none of them could convince anyone. If it weren't for the fact that it is now surrounded by strong enemies on all sides, and it is itself in a dangerous situation of lack of food. Before I could say it, a large-scale fire had already begun.

After the soldiers in the Xiliang Legion began to use knives against their own people in order to grab food. The quarrel was temporarily over. All the military leaders reached a unanimous opinion, that is, to get food first!

In this era of extreme lack of productivity, the yield of one acre of land is only about three stones of corn. Converted into a modern unit, it is 280 catties. This kind of output is destined to be important in the production and life of society.

This era is a time when people live on food in the true sense of the word. Food is the most scarce strategic resource in this era!

The situation of the Xiliang Legion at this moment made them have no choice, so they had to send people to Luoyang City to find Gao Yang to sue for peace, trying to get Gao Yang's food aid, and then relax for the time being. These military leaders know very well in their hearts that the corn in Luoyang City is enough for everyone to eat for several years!

It's just that. Gao Yang was extremely resolute and drove the messenger back. And solemnly said that even if they knelt down and prayed, they would never give them a grain of food.

"Gao Zihou deceives people too much!" Niu Fu, who was already very bad with Gao Yang, was instantly ignited with a fiery temper, and suddenly kicked the charcoal basin in the military tent over.

Suddenly, sparks shot out of the military tent, and charcoal ash flew up. A chicken, a dog jumped. The military tent, which was originally made of flammable materials, was even ignited by the scattered sparks.

Niu Fu's fiery temper can be regarded as something that everyone has appreciated. As soon as Dong Zhuo died, there was no one who could suppress Niu Fu. The temper that has been suppressed for many years is like a large vat of high-purity gunpowder, just a little bit.

By the time the fire was finally extinguished, the huge tent was no longer usable.

Niu Fu felt that he was about to vomit blood in anger. He felt that he had never encountered anything good since he met Gao Yang. Bad luck all day. This Gao Zihou is definitely his biggest nemesis and opponent.

He didn't want to think about it either. If it weren't for his greed for Gao Yang's way to make money, how could he have fallen to the current point?

"Let's fight." Anger is too much. Then all that remains is calm.

Niu Fu, who calmed down, gave the idea that seemed the most feasible at the moment: "Now it is Chen Yi who is guarding the south gate of Luoyang, and I still have some intersections with him before. Let's pay some money to buy him, let him open the city gate and let us into the city. As long as the army enters the city, even if Gao Zihou has the ability to reach the sky, he can only be captured obediently. ”

"That's a way to go." The fierce-looking Guo Yan nodded and approved Niu Fu's idea. Immediately, all the military leaders also chose to agree.

Gao Yang's power expanded too quickly, from just over a thousand people at the beginning, to tens of thousands in a few months. This led to a large shortage of soldiers and horses under his command.

In the face of this situation, Gao Yang can only be promoted in the line of fire. Most of the first sergeants who followed him had already risen a few ranks. Chen is one of them.

Chen Yi is a member of the wolf riders in Lu Bu and Zhou. But he had been bought by the Xiliang Army as early as when Lu Bu defected to Dong Zhuo, and became an internal response for the Xiliang Army to be placed in the wolf cavalry of Bingzhou.

It's just that what people didn't expect was that Chen would be picked up by Zhang Liao and transferred to Gao Yang's command. Originally, Chen was still complaining about his bad luck or something. But in the face of a rocket-like rapid ascent of status and large-scale rewards, these things quickly dissipated the dissatisfaction in his heart.

Because of his bravery, he made a lot of contributions. Chen Qi soon became a subordinate who was valued by Zhang Liao, and was appointed by Zhang Liao as the guard of the southern gate of Luoyang City.

Niu Fu said that he had no intersection with Chen, and that was because all the undercover agents of the Xiliang Army were in his hands. Therefore, he knew Chen Yi's identity. And also know. This is a person who can be bought. Because he was bribed once when he was under Lu Bu.

When the two armies were at war, the two sides could also secretly exchange letters and discuss various matters. It looks like a joke. But in reality, this is exactly what happened.

Therefore, it became logical for Niu Fu to write a letter to Chen Yi to persuade him to open the city gate.

In the barracks inside the south gate of Luoyang City, Chen Qi, who was the chief general of the South City Gate, read the letter written to him by Niu Fu in his hand over and over again in his military tent by the light of the oil lamp.

This is not just a letter of persuasion, but a threatening letter with a threatening meaning between the lines.

Niu Fu knew that he was an internal response, and he also had evidence that he was an internal response. If it is exposed, then he will be miserable.

As for the rich rewards mentioned in the letter, Chen didn't take it to heart at all. He knew very well that once he really let those Xiliang troops enter the city. Then he can't even control his own life, where can he talk about what to be rewarded?

Thinking of this, Chen Di's pupils shrank slightly. Now he is in a high position and is well paid. And his own side has the upper hand. How could someone give up all this voluntarily after the slightest threat. Taking a huge risk to do an internal response? This feeling of being coerced by anyone will be extremely disgusted.

Besides, how could he have done an internal response, but he originally did an internal response from Lu Bu! And there is a fart relationship with being under Gao Yang at the moment?!

Chen Yi wronged Niu Fu. In Ushisuke's heart. As long as Chen can open the city gate and let the Xiliang army enter the city. If he can kill Gao Yang to take revenge, then he will definitely not treat Chen Yi badly.

It's just that his reputation in the past is really bad. Most importantly. At this moment, Gao Yang's side has the upper hand. Chen has no reason to do such a thankless and risky thing.

Chen Qi, who was wearing battle armor, sat behind the desk with his eyes closed, pursed his lips and pondered. I was thinking about how to deal with this matter. I listened to the crisp sound of the oil lamp from time to time.

A moment later, the armor was sonorous, and Chen Qi stood up suddenly. With a firm gaze, he took the letter into his arms. Taking a deep breath, he strode out of his tent.

"Prepare the horse, I'm going to see the Marquis of Jinyang." After Chen Yi walked out of the military tent, he shouted loudly to his guards.

The Marquis of Jinyang is Zhang Liao.

After Gao Yang controlled Liu Xiehe and the entire imperial court, he immediately rewarded his soldiers and horses. Almost everyone was promoted to a knighthood, and at the same time there were rich rewards for goods. These are all important reasons why Gao Yang was able to contain these tens of thousands of troops, allowing them to persist in fighting in the face of hundreds of thousands of enemy troops.

Zhang Liao, as Gao Yang's right-hand man, naturally followed the rising tide. The official is the general of Zhengdong, and the lord is the Marquis of Jinyang. Jinyang is Zhang Liao's hometown. This is also the title and official position that Zhang Liao received in the original history. (To be continued......)
