However, it is said that Dong Shouye led the army to leave Luoyang, and after leaving Dagu Pass, he marched for a while, and when he reached the position east of Liang County, he stopped his military horses and set up camp.

Not long after, Zhang Liao, the second brother on the left wing, and Hu Zhen on the right wing, each led men and horses to join their own army, so they gathered more than 50,000 people, including more than 10,000 cavalry, and the rest were foot soldiers.

The front scouted the horse and found out the news that Sun Jian was about to reach the east of Liang County in a few days, and the war was about to break out.

So Dong Shouye gathered all the generals under his command to discuss how to fight this battle. The people under his command also have their own opinions and quarrels. And the reasons for each are very sufficient, and they are also debated for a while.

Zhang Ji and Du Ji believed that Sun Jian's people were too powerful to confront him head-on, and they should stick to the pass and defend it to the death, and wait for his food to run out before attacking. Sun Jianjun's current grain and grass mainly rely on Yuan Shu's supply, 80,000 or 90,000 horses eat and feed horses every day, and with the strength of Yuan Shu's princes, even if he controls Nanyang County and Yuzhou, he can't supply it for a long time.

The protracted battle was bound to make Sun Jian's food and grass scarce, and at this time, the Xiliang army used the advantage of cavalry to repeatedly harass Sun Jian's grain and grass, and when Sun Jian's food was exhausted, it was the time for the Xiliang army to counterattack.

Li Dao, Hua Xiong and other veteran generals of the Xiliang Army believe that the advantage of the Xiliang Army lies in fighting in the field, fighting in Xiliang for many years, adapting to various field environments, and the current advantage of the Xiliang Army over Sun Jian's army lies in the cavalry, and only in the field can the advantages of the cavalry be better played.

In fact, Dong Shouye, as the commander of the three armies, knows some things better, about the grain and grass of the Xiliang Army, it is far less abundant than Du Yi imagined, otherwise when Dong Shouye sent troops from Chang'an, he would not have been unable to take out so much grain and grass for a while, and instead borrowed it from other troops.

As Dong Shouye's father Dong Zhuo, a large part of his energy is still involved in Xiliang, which let Dong Shouye's uncle build the military fortress of Yiwu in Yixian County, the military bunker is to prevent the rebellion of Xiliang Qianghu again, especially for Han Sui and Ma Teng, the west of Yiwu is the northwest town of Chencang, after Chencang is the Dasanguan, Dasanguan and Chencang is the only way for Xiliang to enter the pass, Han Sui, Ma Teng and other Xiliang rebels, many times to attack Chencang, are not able to attack for a long time, broken halberd sinking sand, In the end, the food ran out and had no choice but to retreat.

Now, although the war in Luoyang has started, Dong Zhuo still did not transfer the main force of the Xiliang Army, the Grizzly Army, which was stationed in Yiwu to guard against the rebellion of Xiliangqianghu, and a large amount of heavy grain and grass to the front line of Luoyang, which shows that Dong Zhuo attaches great importance to the rebellion of Xiliangqianghu and his determination to suppress the rebellion of Xiliangqianghu.

At the same time in history that Dong Shouye learned, the situation was similar to the current situation, when Dong Zhuo still put the main force of the Xiliang Army in Yiwu to guard against the Xiliang rebellion.

Xu Rong, the general of the Western Liang Army, led a partial division to garrison near Luoyang, responsible for guarding the Kwantung princes, but Sun Jian at that time was still supported by his master Yuan Shu, claiming to gather 100,000 people, and swore north in Luyang, intending to capture Luoyang. Then he encountered Xu Rong in the east of Liang County, and the two sides engaged in a fierce battle, as a result, Xu Rong was more skilled, and under the command of Xu Rong, the Xiliang army was like a fierce tiger, defeating the invincible Sun Jian. Sun Jian only had a few dozen horses left to escape.

In Dong Shouye's heart, he still agrees with the views of Li Dao and Xu Rong and other generals of the Xiliang Army, after all, Dong Shouye led the troops to fight during this time, conquered the south and the north, and actively trained the troops personally, so he had a very good understanding of the actual situation of the Xiliang Army. Naturally, he knows what the advantages of the Xiliang Army are compared to Sun Jianjun.

But in front of him, Dong Shouye did not stop this kind of situation where the generals were fighting. In Dong Shouye's view, it is necessary to have an atmosphere of controversy in the deliberations of the military, after all, the more the truth is explained, the clearer it becomes, and only by actively speaking and discussing together can we draw better conclusions and play a greater guiding role in the war.

If there is a dead air in the military tent, no one dares to speak, and when the strength of one person is relied upon, then the strength of the army is bound to be difficult to last; On the contrary, the atmosphere during the deliberations was lively, and the generals actively spoke, gathering the strength of everyone to find a feasible strategic strategy, so that the leaders of the first army would not be as worried and burdened as Zhuge Liang.

This is also more conducive to the cultivation and growth of the generals under his command, so that the generals' military qualities can be generally improved, and it can also make more and more talents who are in charge of their own affairs, which is what Dong Shouye likes to see.

Now Dong Shouye saw that the people under his command were still arguing, so he said: "General Chu, listen to me, you can think about what else you haven't thought of, and what else needs to be added." ”

After a pause and looking at Dian Wei, Dong Shouye said again: "Evil, what do you think about this battle?" ”

Dian Wei scratched his head again, and replied angrily: "Enlightened son, my old man is an elm head who doesn't know how to come up with any ideas!" Whatever the son says, I will do it, that's it. "After saying that, I still look like I'm really smart.

Dong Shouye smiled helplessly, originally he wanted to see if Dian Wei could think positively and actively participate in the discussion in the current environment, if he could be a little ignorant, Dong Shouye would also plan to cultivate him in the future, instead of letting him just be a bodyguard leader. Now it seems that this guy is also extremely lazy, and he only has the life of being a personal guard general and a personal bodyguard.

There is a way that people have their own ambitions and don't have to be reluctant, although Dian Wei is occasionally a little clever, but in general, there is no ability to stand alone. Character determines fate, and a character like Dian Wei, with such an IQ, can only be a life of brute force.

However, Dong Shouye does not intend to be reluctant, in his opinion, there is only one thing that Dian Wei is most worthy of his attention, that is, unparalleled loyalty, as for martial arts, it is still second.

In the era of cold weapons, any general, any military commander, hopes that there will be a group of loyal dead soldiers around him, who can throw their heads, spill blood, block knives, and block guns at critical moments. In ancient times, many emperors looked at their subordinates, and the most critical point was definitely not ability, but always whether the person was loyal enough.

Loyalty is the most valuable quality of a person.

This is true of any era, especially emperors. Regarding the loyalty of military generals, there is such a saying, that is, small battles use capable ministers, and big battles use loyal ministers. That is to say, when the emperor decides to arrange for generals to go on the expedition, he will use some capable people for some battles that have nothing to do with the overall situation, and in the battle of life and death, he must use absolutely loyal people, even if the opponent's ability is lacking.

How so? This is also very reasonable!
