When the princes of the Eighteenth NPC made a big alliance, the player forces felt lost.

The Xuanyuan Alliance and the Xuanyuan League are almost exhausted, bringing 60,000 primary special troops and 3,000 intermediate special troops, with great attempts to replace Yuan Shu and become one of the princes of the Eighteen Routes.

It's a pity that the system directly replaced Yuan Shu with Han Sui and broke Emperor Xuanyuan's thoughts.

Looking at those princes whose strength is far inferior to themselves from afar, walking the red carpet, grand alliances, and banquets on the high platform, the loss in Emperor Xuanyuan's heart can be imagined!

Originally, before the princes discussed Dong, the Xuanyuan League determined three major tasks, one of which was to control Hepu County; the second is to attack Xihe County; The third is to become one of the princes of the Eighteen Roads.

Based on the perception of strength in troubled times, in order to ensure that he could become one of the princes of the Eighteen Roads, the Xuanyuan League almost exhausted its elite and rushed to the sour jujube, but unfortunately the result was extremely disappointing.

On this night, outside the city, Emperor Xuanyuan sat in the center of the camp, Chief of Staff Liu Tao was the first on the left, and the first on the right hand was the first general of the Xuanyuan League, the prefecture-level military general Zhao Jin, and the rest of the generals with troops sat on both sides to discuss countermeasures.

Emperor Xuanyuan spoke first: "This sour jujube alliance failed to achieve the goal we expected in advance, and it seems necessary to adjust our thinking!" I hope that everyone will contribute ideas and discuss new ideas and new countermeasures! ”

"Alliance leader, you can tell me anything, I absolutely support any decision you make!" Emperor Xuanyuan's henchmen preemptively showed their loyalty, building momentum for Emperor Xuanyuan, and attempting to guide the direction of the meeting.

"Yes, you can tell it."

"yes."

……

But looking at the meeting site, there were only about one-third of the supporters, and Liu Tao and Zhao Jin were even more serious and silent. Zhao Jin, as the number one master in the military, originally supported Emperor Xuanyuan, but as Emperor Xuanyuan hurt his prestige and beat himself again and again, Zhao Jin's position became closer and closer to Liu Tao, and even gradually had a tendency to stand on his own.

"Let's talk about it together, and invite everyone to give their opinions, don't make it a word." The situation is stronger than people, and Emperor Xuanyuan knows that this is not the time to engage in a word.

Liu Tao glanced around and found that there was no one to connect, so he coughed lightly and said:

"Since the alliance leader said so, then I'll talk about it.

At the beginning, my thinking was more conformist, and I felt that I should join Dong Zhuo's camp like most players, but later the alliance leader insisted on joining the princes' camp, so I didn't say anything.

But since a few days ago, we basically determined the strategic thinking of our Xuanyuan League during the period when the princes were discussing Dong, why did we have to overthrow it again and again and bring all the mobile forces here? It turns out that we are unlikely to become a prince, and we are not even qualified to be valued by NPCs, so if we continue to lead the army to stay in the sour date, we may even become cannon fodder! ”

Saying this, Liu Tao paused, and his sharp gaze swept over the faces of the others one by one. Emperor Xuanyuan's face was a little ugly, and the others were terrifyingly quiet, they didn't say a word, and their faces were serious. Liu Tao continued:

"Now, since Xihe County has joined Dong Zhuo's camp except for the player city Gaowolf County, the other cities are neutral, making it impossible for us to fully control Xihe County, I propose to give up the idea of controlling Xihe County;

Concentrate all your efforts, mainly to run Hepu County, supplemented by crusading against Dong Zhuo and brushing meritorious points! ”

"I agree that I will no longer hope to become a prince, but since I can't become a prince, then implement the original three-pronged strategy, why give up Xihe County?" Emperor Xuanyuan finally couldn't help it.

Zhao Jin saw that the two of them were constantly disagreeing, stood up and said loudly: "Can you listen to me a few words?" ”

"Please!" Liu Tao said. Emperor Xuanyuan also stopped talking and looked at Zhao Jin.

Zhao Jin continued: "I also have reservations about whether to insist on attacking Xihe County and fighting to the death with the alliance of the Yan family. However, at this meeting, it is estimated that it will be difficult for everyone to eliminate their differences, so I propose to simply divide the elite army brought this time into three, and lead a part of the elite to return to Hepu County under the leadership of Chief of Staff Liu to run our rear;

led by the alliance leader to lead a part of the elite, with Pingding County as a base, to attack Xihe County;

I myself led some of the elites to stay and participate in the discussion of Dong Zhuo's plot to earn merit points, and even look for opportunities to grab the city, territory, and money and food of Dong Zhuo's camp!

Since you can't become a prince all the way, why not just change your course and pay equal attention to brushing merit points and grabbing money, food, and territory? ”

"How to arrange the three-way troops?" Liu Tao asked.

"Whether it is according to "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" or "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", in the plot of the princes discussing Dong, the Sour Jujube Alliance and the Battle of Tiger Prison Pass are the main plots. And often where the main plot is located, it is also the place where the greatest harvest is gained. So I suggest that Zhao Jin lead half of the troops to stay in Sour Zao.

I led 20,000 junior special troops and 1,000 intermediate special troops to Pingding County; The chief of staff led 10,000 junior special troops and 500 intermediate special troops to return to Hepu County. Emperor Xuanyuan said.

Liu Tao felt particularly sad, the leader of the first player force in China was just a narrow-minded and high-minded person! Running Hepu County and pointing to Hainan Island is the foundation of Xuanyuan League's foothold and hegemony! But Emperor Xuanyuan's work always fails to grasp the key points, and he always likes to touch the stones again and again, not for profit, but for the sake of gas!

It is undeniable that the location of the main plot may have a huge harvest, but it is the home of the princes of the Eighteen Roads! The harvest also belongs to Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Sun Jian, Liu Bei and other protagonists first, as the Xuanyuan League of player forces, it is likely that they will not even be able to drink soup!

Since it has become impossible to control Xihe County, is it to bring so many troops to pacify Dingxian County, is it to grab territory, or is it purely to buy gas?

"I hope you don't forget the original intention of our Xuanyuan League's grand strategy! Run Hepu County and control Hainan Island! Don't put the cart before the horse! What do we want to gain by dividing so many troops to Xihe County? Reputation, Territory, Money, or Merit? Don't tell me maybe there's a chance! The idea of trying your luck is dangerous!" Liu Tao's tone was unprecedentedly harsh.

Since Xuanyuan League assassinated Ye Teng in Xuzhou, losing a lot but gaining nothing, Liu Tao has become more and more unkind to Emperor Xuanyuan, and Emperor Xuanyuan hates it so much, but he is helpless.

Leading troops to fight not only requires power, but also prestige! Prestige is often not an inevitable by-product of power, but a leader's personal ability, morality, achievements, and even diligence and sacrifice!

When Emperor Xuanyuan led his men to sacrifice again and again without gain, his prestige gradually declined, and those who dared to challenge his authority were now not only Liu Tao and Zhao Jin, but also other generals.

Zhao Jin said: "I have a proposal, please consider it." Chief of Staff Roundpu: The main role of the army is to suppress bandits and stabilize the situation, and it does not necessarily have to be a medium-level special unit, so I suggest that the chief of staff be allocated 30,000 junior special troops.

The alliance leader and I are mainly looking for opportunities, but my side is the main battlefield after all, and I hope that I will lead 20,000 primary special troops and 2,000 intermediate special troops to stay in Sour Zao.

The leader of the alliance led 10,000 primary special troops and 1,000 intermediate special troops to converge with the defenders of Pingding County and seek an opportunity to attack Xihe County. ”

"Agreed!" This plan is acceptable to Liu Tao.

"So be it." Emperor Xuanyuan deeply felt the sorrow of the weak alliance leader.
