The rain has stopped, and the wind blowing from the river bank is still a bit hot, but it is generally cooler. Looking around the river embankment, there are stars in the sky, and dark camps stand on the ground, stretching for dozens of miles.
Qi permeates it, giving it a slightly mysterious feeling.
Cao Jun's main tent is brightly lit
There was silence under the commander's banner. Two arrows away from the main tent, there were three tents with flags erected to support each other. The soldiers all stood with their swords in hand and their heads held high.
The generals came in hand in hand. When Cao Cao saw them, he waved his hand to signal them to refrain from courtesy and said: "Everyone, please sit down."
For a moment, the tent became quiet. The soldiers moved the situation map over, lit the lamps, and exited silently. At this moment, everyone with seats was sitting, and those without seats stood in a row.
At this time, almost all the core figures on the ground participated in this emergency military intelligence meeting. The governor paced and stared at the map, frowning deeply, looking at the dusk outside the tent, his face solemn.
"Only these 150,000 navy troops cannot shake Luoyang. Dong Zhuo has 100,000 troops stationed in Hulao and another 30,000 troops in Chang'an. He has 170,000 troops in his own hands... Unless Ye Qing personally leads 10,000 red armor soldiers to take risks.
Going up the river...are you sure he didn't sneak across secretly?"
Seeing the governor's hidden worries, the leader of the magicians secretly sighed. He was an old subordinate of the governor. The governor had always been graceful, well behaved, and well-versed in his work.
But when he got down to earth, he was repeatedly frustrated. Although Cao Cao was still young, the head of the magician group saw that he had a few more gray hairs.
The worry hidden at this time was something I had never seen before. I couldn't say much at this time. I just bowed slightly and said simply: "The four-clawed red dragon is still in the middle camp."
"For this reason, it is basically impossible to hide this dragon. Of course, if we can hide it, then we don't have to fight - even in the lower earth world, this is at least the karma of an immortal."
Many people on the ground breathed a sigh of relief: "That's it. Ye Qing also knows that the coalition forces have deep gaps. As soon as he leaves, he will lose control of all parties. If he is defeated again in Luoyang... no, even as long as he is trapped,
What is waiting for him is to fall apart."
"So it's just a deception by Ye Qing?"
"Most likely, it also has the intention of blocking the main road after intercepting the pass."
Someone laughed after hearing this: "Ye Qing has always had a big appetite. Even if the Hulao Pass has not been broken yet, the Xiliang army has lost 100,000, and the beasts are still fighting. There are also 200,000 from us and Yu Fan. Ye Qing thinks he can eat it?"
The governor listened quietly to the analysis of these people, and remained noncommittal. He suddenly turned around and asked, "Can you contact Dong Zhuo to kill Guan Yu?"
"Three high-end combat forces have been lost on that side. The new commander who has been urgently adjusted has rejected any further expansion of forces and prefers to concentrate firepower to eliminate Ye Qing... Moreover, after Guan Yu killed Yuan Shao and defeated the real person, he has broken through the Dao forbidden area. His strength is not trivial.
"
After hearing this, everyone was silent for a moment. Everyone knew the terror of the general who had entered the Tao.
Nowadays, the earth world is upgrading faster and faster. If this continues, the advantage of the people on the earth will gradually disappear.
"Sir," the person who had been silent and deep in thought was Fang Shi. He suddenly raised his head and said, "I have something to say. I don't know whether I should say it or not?"
"What do you mean?" The governor was startled. Fang Shi was the head of a large clan on earth and the prefect of a county down there, so his words certainly had weight: "What do you think of the situation?"
"Sir, I have no objection to the situation in Luoyang, but there is something behind it - Gongsun Zan's situation is a bit wrong."
"What?" Everyone was stunned.
"Gongsun Zan rose from a low-level official position in the county and made many meritorious deeds. He was promoted to the rank of Zhonglang General. He had a tough attitude against the northern barbarians, fought bravely and was powerful in the border areas."
"How could such a great general not arrive by now even if it was delayed for a while? We could still laugh at it before, but now that we think about it, even mediocre generals are about to arrive, so why haven't they come to Luo..."
Fang Shi stopped talking when he said this, but he was a little sensitive. After hearing this and thinking about it carefully, a chill ran down his back, and cold sweat suddenly broke out.
The governor coughed lightly and asked gloomily: "Are you saying that Gongsun Zan might have done something strange?"
"Yes" Fang Shi heard a trace of anger, but still responded.
The governor was already furious and was about to explode: "Don't slow down our military morale..."
Before he finished speaking, a magician hurriedly entered and reported: "Report, Daofa Communication, Gongsun Zan has invaded Jizhou——"
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire audience fell silent, and the Governor was shocked: "What time?"
"Just yesterday, it was rumored that two cities had been captured..."
Suddenly everyone changed their color: "Damn it, this Gongsun Zan is so slow, he clearly has a premeditated plan."
"We were all deceived by this person and fell into Ye Qing's plan to hide the truth."
"What he wants to capture is not Luoyang, but Hebei, and Hebei, and contact Qingyou. We are surrounded by his general trend."
The governor also thought of this terrible scene, and a chill suddenly hit his heart, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. Seeing the governor's situation and the panic or chilling of the people, Fang Shi sighed in his heart.
In the earthly world, all of them are brilliant, deep and majestic. I don’t think they are all Gonggun princes who were raised in the peaceful world. When they encounter troubled times, they all panic.
Can such a group be relied upon?
However, the governor finally had some real skills. At this time, he calmed down and scolded: "Why are you panicking? Yuan Shao's headquarters in Jizhou has fifty thousand people. The news of Yuan Shao's death could not reach Jizhou for a while. Even if it did, a group of counselors and ministers inside would block it."
Come on, Gongsun Zan can capture this place in a short time, but this is just another deception by Ye Qing... What he wants must still be Luoyang."
Regardless of whether what he said was right or wrong, as the voice fell, everyone became calmer.
The governor was about to speak when he suddenly heard some noises outside the tent, and he was about to scold him in a dark voice: "Didn't I tell you not to disturb..."
Before he finished speaking, a familiar voice came into his ears: "Is the Governor here?"
"Yu Fan???" The governor was startled. He was an old bureaucrat, and his familiarity with politics was almost instinctive. He immediately realized: "Faced with this situation, the Yu family cannot sit still."
With this thought, the governor breathed a sigh of relief and immediately felt a little relieved. Then he heard a report from the guards, saying that Yu Fan had secretly entered the camp with only a few personal followers to seek an audience.
Everyone was a little surprised at this man's courage. They couldn't help but look at the governor. They saw the governor paused and said, "Please come in - no, I will come out to greet you personally."
After saying that, he went out to greet him. At this time, a gust of night wind blew by, and the governor was slightly sweating, bringing a chill, but he ignored it. He only saw a general who stepped forward and saluted: "Yu Fan has met the governor."
"Haha, you're welcome, please come in." The governor said with a smile on his face and slowly stretched out his hand.
Yu Fan bowed behind him and pulled him together. This was cooperation.
When everyone saw it, they all looked at each other and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
These two people, who were originally mortal enemies in history, now decided to work together for the sake of a common enemy and faced with Ye Qing's strength.
Liu Jun camp
There are many similar armored soldiers and they are heavily guarded.
"Quickly enter the customs, there are only three options to choose from."
The lights were brightly lit in the commander's tent, and he stayed up all night. Almost all the core civil and military personnel participated in the meeting to discuss, and after a comprehensive plan was presented, Guo Jia held a wooden stick and pointed at the huge Sili sand table in the center.
The three-dimensional terrain is exquisite and accurate. This is based on detailed surveying and mapping. Thousands of caravan secret drawings, mountain village visits, and hydrological surveys have witnessed the two-year all-round preparations for going to Luo.
Guo Jia had been in charge of secret things for a period of time, and he still admires this incredibly huge plan. But what is now revealed to everyone is that every path, gorge, and bend is so accurate that even the colors of the emerald green forest and the light golden river are clearly layered.
The sand table has been used in the army for a long time, but it has never been so refined. Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Dian Wei and other local generals all stared at it and secretly praised their lord's foresight. Only Xu You and other civil servants were mentally prepared... There are exceptions.
, for example, the newly joined Chen Deng even saw this method for the first time.
At this time, everyone pricked up their ears and listened to the explanation.
"The first is the mountain road - the secret road in the nearby mountains. This has been detected. It is really a pity. There are steep cliff roads that can be used by mountain people to climb and collect herbs, but it is absolutely impossible to quickly send the army through, let alone horses.
Maybe, at most it’s only 3,000 in three days…”
Qianqian glanced at the mountain road. Without any movement, a green light lit up, highlighting the secret road, and even miniaturizing the mountains like an army of ants on the move, causing a gasp... This is simply a magical skill.
, there is nothing more intuitive than this
"Of course, the first batch was sent over three days ago. They are all archers. This is the first side army."
Guo Jia said with a mysterious smile: "After confirming that the remaining defenders in Yanzhou in Jiangdong have no attack power, a group of 5,000 Danyang soldiers has been sent from Xuzhou, led by General Zang Ba. They arrived in Xuchang yesterday and left this morning.
The Qin-Zheng Ancient Road attacked Xinzheng directly, threatening the south of Luoyang in order to contain Dong Zhuo from further reinforcements in Hulao..."
"However, the food road is not smooth and the military strength is limited. We only prepare for the worst if we fail to attack the city. This is not the key to quickly breaking through."
"Second, water route - upstream the Yellow River and turn to Luoshui. You all just came back from seeing off General Guan. I must have known that the ship carried 15,000 elite infantry and cavalry, and the goal was to bypass Hulao Pass for ninety miles.
Gong County... But 10,000 foot archers and 5,000 light cavalry can only capture the city of Gong County. They do not have the ability to capture Hulao Pass from behind, and time cannot wait for this army to outflank them. They can only be used to block the escape of the 100,000 troops at Hulao Pass.
.”
Cao Baijing waved his hand slightly. This Yellow River waterway showed the journey of Guan Yu's navy. They had just traveled more than twenty miles and were still far from the target landing point.
Ye Qing glanced at everyone's understanding and nodded to indicate that it was okay. Guo Jia pointed the wooden stick on the Hulao: "The third one, the pass - we still have to break through here to allow hundreds of thousands of troops to enter the pass, and
Dong Zhuo's decisive battle at Luoyang City"
"The mountain is difficult to overcome, and all side responses can only be side responses. The only way to truly break through the barrier is to attack by force. This is not only a military method, but also has huge symbolic significance."
"Only when my lord captures Hulao Pass and joins the army in an upright and dignified manner can the people of the world recognize my lord as sitting in Luoyang and becoming the heir of the Han Dynasty - even if he is only granted the title of Duke now."
"This can only be achieved by extraordinary means. Jia is not familiar with the effects of magic. How to solve this problem step by step can only be left to the Lord and the two ladies..."
Hearing this, Ye Qing laughed: "Well said, it is indeed Guo Jina. I will have Mrs. Gan explain the magic to everyone below."
All kinds of secret words permeated the tent, but they were isolated by magic and could not penetrate at all.
While all parties were discussing secretly, it soon dawned.
The morning light rises from the east, dew hangs on the leaves of grass and trees, war drums are beating, military camps are opened, and infantry, archers and cavalry are pouring out layer by layer, spreading out regularly on the wilderness.
On the fifth day, the war began one day early, surprising many people on both sides.
Many people on earth thought about it and found it reasonable - this was in line with Ye Qing's style.
