Liu Bei found that he couldn't see through Zhang Chao, this person was real and fake for a while, which made him unable to figure it out.

No one cared about Liu Bei's reaction, and after Yuan Shao saw that everyone was coming, he said, "Please move over, generals." ”

Yuan Shao led everyone to a wall with sketches, and then he pointed to the map and said: "According to the scout's report, Dong Thief decided to attack us first, so he sent a five-way army, intending to defeat us at one time and keep us peaceful for several years. ”

"What to do? How else! Naturally, the soldiers will come to block it, and the water will cover it. "The first to express his stance was Sun Jian, he was a brave general, useless to any strong enemy, and it was normal to be able to say this.

"Yes, even if they want to divide their troops into five ways, we will also divide the attack into five ways. I think each of them will bring their headquarters to fight. Cao Cao also clicked on the side.

This time, Cao Cao led an army of 10,000, and with this number, there was naturally no pressure on the enemy of 7,000. Sun Jian led 5,000 troops, although the number was a little worse, but he was brave and unstoppable, and the problem was naturally not very big.

However, Liu Bei and Zhang Chao will suffer some losses. After all, their army is a little too small.

Originally, Liu Bei wanted to suggest that everyone join forces together, and then look for opportunities to annihilate the enemies one by one in the future. Sun Jian and Cao Cao did express their stance first, which made some words unspeakable, if he was in a place to raise the army, he still seemed to be afraid, and he didn't have to be underestimated.

Liu Bei knew that the division of troops against the division of troops was not good for himself. But this disadvantage was not himself, so he didn't interject immediately, but looked at Zhang Chao, wanting to see how he answered.

In fact, it's not just Liu Bei, now the eyes of several people are on Zhang Chao, and they all want to see how this son-in-law will decide.

Zhang Chao didn't notice everyone's eyes, just put his head in front of the map, and looked slowly, this look was the time of half a pillar of incense. The patience of several people was worn out.

Seeing that Zhang Chao hadn't stopped expressing his position, Yuan Shao finally asked a little uncontrollably, "General Zhang, what do you think about this matter?" ”

"Huh?" was called by Yuan Shao, Zhang Chao seemed to wake up and said, "What do I think?" Didn't several generals take a stand? ”

"Ahh What do you mean..."Yuan Shao couldn't believe that Zhang Chao would agree to this decision. In this way, it is equivalent to Zhang Chao using 3,005 troops to fight the enemy 7,000, that is, one against two.

"I mean, of course, I listen to everyone, hehe." Zhang Chao happily said his decision, and then looked at the map in front of him as if nothing had happened.

Zhang Chao even agreed to divide his troops and attack together, so Liu Bei couldn't say anything, so he had to grit his teeth and agree.

Everyone agreed to divide the troops into the army, which was a lot of disappointment for Yuan Shao, he originally thought that someone would beg him, but now that no one opened his mouth, he was not good at taking the initiative to say something.

With the enemy policy in hand, the next step is to choose the battlefield. Cao Cao and Sun Jian had already prepared and each chose a place with mountains. They are going to defend against the danger, so that the advantage will be greater.

The two mountains were also chosen to go, Zhang Chao hesitated for a moment, then pointed to a dense forest on the map and said: "I chose to meet the enemy here." Hehe, if you can't beat it, you can enter the woods, which is a good way to escape. ”

The choice was chosen, and he even said his intentions directly, which couldn't help but gain a few eyes full of contempt.

Zhang Chao really didn't care at all, he would choose the dense forest, which had been planned a long time ago, and he concluded that others would not compete for it, but it was inconvenient to talk to everyone about the content now.

Liu Bei finally chose a place near the river, which can be regarded as a barrier to block the enemy. Naturally, in terms of topography, it can't compare to those two mountains. But there is really no way, there are not as many soldiers as others, the right to speak is not important, and the depression is only in my heart.

Seeing that everyone had finished choosing, Yuan Shao smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll deploy an army in the middle of the plain, just wait for the enemy to appear, and then attack head-on." If I defeat the enemy in the future, I will help you, so you can rest assured. ”

Yuan Shao said that he was beautiful, but if he would really send reinforcements, who could know? The people who can sit here are all old foxes, and they don't easily believe the words of others. It's just that he still has to say politely: "Thank you so much." ”

"Huh." Looking at the gratitude of several people with different hearts and painlessness, Yuan Shao smiled, thinking in his heart, whether you live or die, I wish you were all defeated and killed? Who will fight with me in the future?

The meeting was finally over, and everyone went to get ready. Waiting for the arrival of the enemy, it is a big battle, and victory or defeat also determines whether the emperor can be brought back safely.

In Chang'an City, as soon as the three-day preparation time arrived, the Fifth Route Army marched out of the city gate, and the target went straight to Hongjia County.

A total of 35,000 people from the Fifth Route Army went their separate ways after they got out of Chang'an City, and they also learned in advance that the Five Route Coalition Army had separated and refused to defend, and now they were each finding their own opponents and preparing for a decisive battle.

Among the five roads, the most stressful is naturally Xu Rong.

Not only did he have to face a huge difference in numbers with 7,000 to 30,000, but at the same time, he also had a lieutenant general Niu Fu who didn't listen to his orders.

Dong Zhuo's soldiers and horses are mainly divided into three lines. They are the Liangzhou system, the Luoyang system and the Bingzhou system.

The Liangzhou department is naturally the one who has always followed him, and he also has his younger brother, nephew and son-in-law. and the state department is Lu Bu and others; As for the Luoyang system, it was Xu Rong and those Luoyang city defenders who surrendered.

Dong Zhuo still believes in the Liangzhou system, but he is not at ease with others. Under normal circumstances, they will not be allowed to fight privately. Just like this time, although it is said that Xu Rong is leading the troops, he is still with his son-in-law Niu Fu, and he is in command of a thousand Xiliang cavalry, which is a sign of unease.

Originally, there was a huge disparity in the number of the army, and now the most elite 1,000 cavalry could not be used for himself, and Xu Rong at this time could be said to be suffering. But you have to take the initiative to fight, otherwise, you will be seen as having two hearts, which is really too embarrassing.

It is also thanks to Xu Rong's generosity that he doesn't care about these, in order to win the battle, he even took the initiative to find Li Yu, Guo Yan and others before going out of the city. said that he would think of holding Yuan Shao's main army, and when they were victorious, he would come to help him defeat Yuan Shao together.

Xu Rong is naturally wishful thinking, but Li Yu and the others did agree, as for whether they can really do it, it is a matter of two words.

Xu Rong and Niu Fu took a thousand cavalry and six thousand infantry and went straight to the target, a plain.

In order to show his military might and strength, Yuan Shao only left hundreds of people in the city of Hongnong County, and he himself brought nearly 30,000 troops to this plain place.

When he was waiting for Xu Rong to come here, he saw this scene. After seeing that Yuan Shaojun's army was well-groomed and full of morale, Xu Rong ordered the army to stop and began to discuss with Niu Fu.

"General Niu, do you think we will spend a lot of money with Yuan Shao first, and after the other armies have won, we will join forces and storm the enemy camp?" Xu Rong's secret approach is still wise.

Unexpectedly, Niu Fu shook his head again and again after hearing this, "General Xu, you are still a general of a hundred battles, do you still have to point to others to help in the war?" Although Yuan Shao's army is quite numerous, its strength may not be strong, and they must have expected that we would not dare to attack. If we suddenly attack and launch an attack, maybe we can catch them off guard. ”

"What?" Xu Rong was surprised. Caught off guard, everyone has set up a position, just waiting for themselves to go, where will there be no preparation?

Xu Rongzhen didn't know if this Niu Fu didn't understand the art of war or if he liked fantasy too much.

Naturally, Niu Fu has his own reasoning. As Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, it is naturally much easier for him to come out than others. But no matter what, it must be supplemented by military achievements, and some things can be better spoken. Just like this time, if you can break 30,000 with 7,000, it will be the greatest merit, and in this way, you can enjoy better treatment and a higher position of power. So where would there be the idea of not fighting?

To say that Niu Fu thought very well in his heart, if he wins, he will naturally have a great merit; On the contrary, if it is defeated, it will be the master Xu Rongzhi's fault. Anyway, this person has never been very proud of his father-in-law, who will carry it if he doesn't carry the black cauldron?

Niu Fu was bent on fighting, which made Xu Rong entangled.

This person is obviously the role of the overseer, if he does not fight, then he is afraid of the enemy, and there will definitely be no good fruit to eat when he returns. If you fight, there may be a glimmer of hope for victory.

"Well, if that's the case, I'll charge once and test the opponent's reality." Xu Rong agreed, and then ordered two thousand troops, ready to do the first impact.

Xu Rong is about to attack, Niu Fuzi will not stop him, he also wants to see how strong Yuan Shaojun is, if the situation is not good, he is also ready to flee at any time.

With 2,000 infantry, with a steady pace, with 200 people as a formation, the whole ten infantry phalanx slowly moved towards Yuan Shaojun.

From afar, Yuan Shao, who was sitting in the Chinese army, looked at the Xiliang infantry phalanx approaching him, with a look of disdain in his eyes. "It's an egg hitting a stone." After sighing, Yuan Shao said to his side: "The enemy wants to attack, who will refuse?" ”

"I'm coming." As soon as the voice fell, a general jumped out of his horse.
