"Your last sentence was right." Gao Yang curled the corners of his mouth, a smile appeared on his face, and he said with a smile, "That herald is estimated to be dead a long time ago." Do you think the people who did this would leave me with this huge hole to catch? This kind of loophole is impossible for even Lu Bu to miss. ”

"You're saying I'm even more stupid than Lu Bu?" The origin reacted very quickly this time, and immediately asked angrily.

"Haha." Gao Yang said with a smile: "Who said Lu Bu is stupid? He was able to roam the siege of so many heroes and heroes for many years, if he was stupid, wouldn't he have been eaten and wiped clean long ago? Where will you wait for the White Gate Tower? He's just not as smart as anyone else. ”

"It always feels like something is wrong?" The origin said depressedly.

"Forget it, don't dwell on these little things. Let's talk about going to war. Gao Yang quietly changed the topic.

After washing up, he changed into a shiny armor, and explained everything in the mansion and the search for the contractor to Huang Liang to do. After arranging various affairs, Gao Yang mounted his war horse and rode towards the camp of his soldiers and horses with dozens of guards.

On the way to the barracks, Gao Yang deliberately passed by in front of Yuan Kui's house. Those Xiliang soldiers all knew Gao Yang, and they didn't say anything when they saw him just passing by.

Seeing that the glittering gate was shut, more than 100 sergeants outside were guarding near the mansion with swords and halberds. There was a low wail from the large mansion. A strong, disgusting smell of blood filled the air.

"You can't help them." Yuan Dian said softly: "At this time, there are many things, so you can only put yourself in." ”

Gao Yang pursed the corners of his mouth and didn't say anything more. He took a deep breath, waved his whip violently, shouted, and rode his horse towards the barracks.

In the distance, the sunset is about to sink below the horizon, and the entire land is shrouded in endless glow. The flowery city of Luoyang is about to usher in a dark night!

Gao Yang learned when he came to the barracks. Dong Zhuo's official order has come down. Zhang Liao sent someone to Gaoyang's mansion to deliver the letter, but it was estimated that he missed it when he went to Yuan Kui's house. As for the previous military meeting, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun both said that they had not seen the messenger who came to report.

Gao Yang smiled and skipped the matter for the time being. After receiving Dong Zhuo's order, he realized that he had become one of the pioneers who went to the Tiger Prison Pass. He was in charge of going to Tiger Prison Pass with a supply convoy transporting grain and straw. And the commander of the vanguard military horse is still an acquaintance, Niu Fu!

Tiger Prison Pass is only a few dozen miles away from Luoyang City, and the distance is not far. However, there are a large number of Xiliang military horses, and it is not easy to bring all the horses over in a short time.

Operations in the era of cold weapons are all about logistics, that is, food. Basically, as long as the gap between the two sides is not as large as that of the regular army and the armed peasants, who can provide sufficient food. Maintain the morale of the army, then basically whoever wins.

In this era when there were no railways, goods could only be transported by oxen and horse-drawn carts. It would be a terrible thing to feed an army of 100,000 and to provide a larger number of horses with food and logistics. Except for the Han Empire, no country on this planet can do it.

Most of the strength of the Han Dynasty was inherited from the Qin Dynasty. The Qin Dynasty, which stood out in the centuries-long melee and finally swept away, was definitely the ultimate example of classical militarism.

During the centuries-long wars of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, various countries had already developed a large number of advanced scientific and technological products. For example, military rations.

This brick-like ration made from steamed corn is very durable, similar to that of compressed biscuits. Just break off a piece and boil it in hot water and eat it. It is enough to provide enough energy. Moreover, this ration is suitable for storage and can be stored for a long time, which is simply the best choice for marching and fighting.

Gao Yang checked the rations in his hand, and sighed in his heart that Wei Qing and Champion Hou were able to travel thousands of miles outside the Saiwai Territory. This ration must have been a great achievement.

As for why there is no such thing in the future. You don't have to guess to know that it must have been lost when the Wuhu was chaotic. People have been killed, books have been burned, where will there be any civilization and technology to pass on? The glory of the pre-Qin dynasty that swept the world. After hundreds of years of brutal killing, only the front of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang remains, and the terracotta figurines under the thick loess are silently guarding!

In addition to the sergeants, the Xiliang army, which has a large number of cavalry, also needs a larger amount of war horse fodder.

A trained war horse is different from a normal horse. They can't just find a place where grass grows and let the horses graze on their own, as some of the descriptions have been depicted.

Although war horses can also eat grass in the wild, their main ingredient is artificially dried forage, especially in wartime.

In order to ensure that the war horse does not lose fat, it can have sufficient physical strength to fight. While providing a large number of main ingredients, it is also necessary to provide bean cakes and beans for the war horse, and take care of them carefully. War horses are very delicate creatures. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty supported only hundreds of thousands of war horses with the strength of the whole country. Wei Qinghuo went to get sick, which of their attacks was not tens of thousands, tens of thousands, tens of thousands of damaged war horses?

The sum of these things is terrifying. The greater the number of people, the greater the logistical pressure. Every time Zhuge Liang failed in the Northern Expedition, it was because the logistics could not keep up. It has nothing to do with the combat effectiveness of the army.

20,000 vanguards, and a larger number of convoys. Fortunately, this time the distance is not far, and things are much simpler. If you go on an expedition thousands of miles away, then there will be not enough food for the road.

In the era of cold weapons, the Chinese nation will be recycled after it has expanded to the extreme. It's not that they want to give up the so-called barren land, the main reason is that the logistics are too difficult!

The long queue arrived at the majestic Tiger Prison after three days. At this time, Dong Zhuo's Chinese army was still far away in Luoyang City and did not set off. The amount of troops, civilians, and various supplies is too much.

The Tiger Prison Pass is connected to Songyue in the south, and is bordered by the Yellow River in the north, with mountains and mountains staggered, which is a natural danger. There is a lot of husband when the pass, and the trend of ten thousand people is not open, and it is a place for soldiers to fight.

Not far from the Tiger Prison Pass is the important town of Xingyang in the eastern part of the country, and to the west is Luoyang City, the capital of the world. Needless to say, the location of this pass is very important.

Tiger Prison Pass is a military pass, and thousands of defenders were originally stationed here. By the time Niu Fu arrived here with an army of 20,000, there were no longer so many people living in the pass. Not to mention the huge amount of supplies.

All the grain and straw that had been brought in were settled behind the pass. The main force of the vanguard army was also settled behind the pass. Only 5,000 defenders were left in the Tiger Pass.

That night, after Niu Fu held a military meeting, he deliberately left Gao Yang behind.

"It's thick." The smiling Niu Fu picked up a glass of wine and handed it to Gao Yang, and after the two of them drank it all, they said with a smile: "The Kwantung Coalition Army claims to have 500,000 soldiers, but they are all newly recruited people, and at most there are some local county soldiers. Where will you and me be the opponent? ”

"What the general said is very true." Gao Yang smiled at the corner of his mouth, his eyes moved lightly, and he responded with a smile, "Lord Xiangguo's subordinates are full of talents, and the soldiers are strong and strong. Naturally, it is not something that those people can compete with. ”

"Hahaha~~~" Niu Fu laughed loudly and said with a smile, "I still understand Zihou." Come on, come on, drink this cup to the brim! ”

Gao Yang has never understood why people in this era like to laugh when they are fine, as if they are very heroic. didn't care at all about spilling his saliva on the people next to him.

Gao Yang raised his hand to wipe his neck without a trace, chuckled and drank a glass of wine again. The alcohol content of this era has no feeling at all for Gao Yang. He's just waiting, waiting for Niu Fu himself to say what he really wants to do!

While laughing and bragging, he drank glass after glass. Gao Yang's side is not doing much, Niu Fu, who has always been known for his heroic drinking, felt that he was about to be unbearable, and hurriedly put down his wine glass and prepared to say something.

"It's thick." Niu Fu, whose face was red and his ears were red, and his mouth was full of alcohol, said drunkenly, "Let's go out to fight, and be careful in everything." Those farmers of the Kwantung Coalition Army are naturally not worried, but we also need to make some preparations in case of emergency. You say yes or no. ”

Gao Yang lowered his head to prevent Niu Fu from seeing his face, and a gleam burst out of his eyes!

"Sure enough, it's you!" The corners of Gao Yang's mouth were slightly hooked, revealing a sneer.

Before, he suspected that it was Niu Fu, who looked honest on the outside and spoke and acted extremely heroically, that did something to cut off Dong Zhuo's order to him. Now it's finally been confirmed that he did it!

can stop Dong Zhuo's messenger, and only a few people can do it. Needless to say, Lu Bu's proud personality and anxious IQ can't do such a thing, and it will make people take the initiative to doubt him.

Another person who can do it is Li Ru. As Dong Zhuo's confidant and military advisor, Li Ru, who has nothing to do with Gao Yang, has no reason to attack Gao Yang for some wealth. Moreover, if it was really Li Ru who did it, then with his excellent IQ, he would never use the trick of cutting off the messenger.

The loopholes are just too obvious.

It is impossible for Dong Zhuo to do anything to such a peerless military general as Gao Yang because of this matter. And there are very few people who can do this, and those who are interested can see some clues after careful study. To be able to become the military advisor of the Xiliang Army of hundreds of thousands, it is impossible for him Li Ru to use such a simple strategy.

In the end, what remains is the son-in-law of the honest-looking Xiangguo Lord in front of him, General Niu Funiu.

If it was just a guess before, then Niu Fu's intention just now to let Gao Yang go out of the customs and be stationed outside the customs and become horns with the Tiger Prison Pass confirmed the ins and outs of the whole thing!

Sure enough, Niu Fu was still taking care of himself and said, "It is really unwise to stick to the pass and fight the enemy's attrition hard, I want to send a general out of the pass to build a camp under the pass, and to be stationed as a horn." This matter is none other than Zihou. ”

The smile on the corner of Gao Yang's mouth deepened, and the cold glint in his eyes was almost like substance! (To be continued......)
