Mythical Qin, Han, Three Kingdoms, Sui and Tang Dynasties, establishment of empire

Chapter 236 Not counting victory, counting defeat first

A few days passed, and everything was calm. Just when Liu Hua thought that he was suspicious and over-speculated on Xiang Jian.

Xiang Ceyu, who was originally on the front line, brought his troops back from Hulao Pass. After replenishing supplies, he left again with Zhou Yuji and his generals. Looking at the direction, the target seemed to be Xuanyuan Pass.

It seems that Xiang Jian has other plans that they don't know about.

"All the sons of this version of Xiang Ceyu were transferred away, leaving Yuan Shao with the wind. Even if I stayed behind... Where did Xiang Jian get the courage to fight the Qin army? How could I feel the death above his head? The omen star is particularly dazzling!"

Liu Hua took a deep breath and immediately asked Zhang Liang to summon everyone. They needed to discuss it carefully. He also notified Liu Yu to come to the meeting.

Following Liu Hua's order, Zhang Liang was on the left, Zhuge Liang, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Deng Yu, Kou Xun, Tian Feng, Jushou, Chen Ping, Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai, Cui Hao, Zhang Bin, Xun You, etc. people.

Liu Yu is on the right, Han Xin, Su Lie, Zhou Yafu, Cao Cao, Feng Yi, Cen Peng, Sun Lingming, Jiang Song, Ran Min, Jia Fu, Xiong Kuohai, Xue Li, Dian Wei, Xu Zhu, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, Pei Yunqing et al.

Xiao He, Pang Tong, Fazheng, Zhang Su, Zhang Song, Wang Lei, Yang Jian, Tan Daoji, Wang Zhene, Zhang Ren, Yan Yan, Shen Tianzi, Zhu Lingshi and others under Liu Yu also joined the meeting.

Everyone came to the camp and held a meeting with serious faces.

"But Xiang Jian and others want us to send troops to Hulao Pass as cannon fodder?" Sun Lingming speculated on Xiang Jian with the greatest malice.

"They won't care about us. They are all afraid that we will take away their credit!" Liu Hua said calmly. The strength of those princes is not weak at all. Liu Hua can be said to have carefully observed the civil and military affairs of those princes in the past few days.

Fan Zeng and Lu Su under Xiang Jian, Xu You, Chen Qun, Sima Yi and others under Yuan Shao, Zhu Sheng and Lu Xun under Zhu Hai, and Chen Gong and Wei Zheng under Li Mi, are all top-notch resourceful men.

"Then why are you recruiting us here in such a hurry, Your Majesty?" Zhuge Liang asked Liu Hua.

"If they lose, can we turn the tide!" Liu Hua thought for a while, but said seriously. It is true that the strength of the princes is not weak, but the strength of Da Qin may be stronger. There is a gap in hard power between them, especially in high-end battles. The Qin army's iron eagle warriors were trapped in the camp, but the princes did not have such combat power.

"Defeat? No way, they have 40 people! The Qin soldiers on the opposite side only have 10 people!" Sun Lingming said.

"If the Qin army has one-tenth the level of the Iron Eagle warriors I encountered, then the probability of defeat is indeed very high!" Liu Yu said.

After hearing Liu Yu's words, Zhang Liang, Zhuge Liang and others were not surprised. They knew very well the combat power of the Army Soul Legion, and also knew that the coalition of princes had no way to deal with a legion of this level, so they began to think carefully.

Regarding Liu Yu, everyone has basically recognized him.

Regardless of Liu Yu's ability, just being able to escape from the Army Soul Legion and having his subordinates be no less talented than theirs in both civil and military matters, plus the fact that Liu Yu is the younger brother of his own king, is enough to defeat most of Liu Hua's subordinates in civil and military matters. Approved.

It is undeniable that Liu Yu has integrated into Liu Hua's group with the ability he has shown now.

"Tell me about your analysis!" Liu Hua looked at Liu Yu and encouraged Liu Yu, because Liu Hua also wanted to hear the professional analysis of the first emperor of the Southern Dynasties.Liu Yu did not refuse at all, and explained: "Actually, after seeing the Beifu Army under my command fighting against the Iron Eagle Regiments and part of the Qin Army, I can confirm that the coalition of princes may reach the level of regular soldiers, but It is more than one level behind the Qin army, and this is the first weakness of the coalition of princes!"

"The second weakness of the coalition of princes is that the coalition of princes is an alliance of a large number of princes. Although there are 40 people who can't order and prohibit each other at the time, in comparison, the [-] Qin army is integrated, with the same command and the natural danger of tiger siege. The efficiency of the two is naturally different!"

"As for the third weakness of the coalition of princes, the hearts of the princes are not unified. I think you have seen the intrigues among the princes in the past few days. Once the battle fails, the coalition will soon become disorganized!

In comparison, I don't know how capable Wang Li is, but he and this group of Qin troops have been stationed at the border for many years, and there is no problem in trusting each other.

If we say who has less fault in this fight, I am more optimistic about Wang Li! "

Liu Yu analyzed his reasons one by one, and as he spoke, the faces of the people present became more and more serious.

"The coalition of princes will be defeated, but it will not be a major defeat. Xiang Jian, Yuan Shao, Zhu Hai and others are all outstanding people. How could they not know the importance of orders and prohibitions? In your absence, Xiang Jian and others have already The coalition forces were trained," Liu Hua said.

"The six countries have united many times in the past, and they have long suffered from inconsistent orders. The six countries basically have a set of military formations for cooperation." Zhang Liang was once a nobleman in South Korea, so he knew it.

"Then it seems that the main forces of the coalition of princes are all the princes of the six countries in the past, and they exclude us who are not princes of the six countries. It turns out that there is a set of military formations dedicated to the alliance." Liu Yu lamented the heritage of the old aristocrats of the six countries.

After hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Even if everyone hated the old nobles of the Six Nations, they all knew the simple truth that good and evil depended on each other.

After all, he is a member of the coalition of princes. If the coalition of princes is in bad luck, he will not be able to escape!
"The better situation is that although the coalition of princes is defeated, the casualties are not large, so dividing the troops is the best choice when the time comes." Liu Hua said.

"But if we divide our troops, won't our forces be dispersed?" Fazheng stood up and spoke.

As soon as Fa Zheng said this, some of the counselors nodded subconsciously. After all, dividing the troops into three groups did lead to a dispersion of troops.

However, these counselors did not refute directly. Instead, out of trust in Liu Hua, they quietly waited for Liu Hua's next words.

Liu Hua did not directly refute Fazheng, but walked to a simple large map and said with a smile: "Of course I know that dividing the troops will cause the dispersion of troops, but you must know that the Qin army still has 25 troops. Is it possible? Will we have to fight a war of attrition with the Qin army at Hulao Pass?
You must know that there is still Yang Su in Luoyang with a 12-strong army. If our army only goes to the Hulao line, it will be equivalent to fighting the Qin army in Hulao. Once the troops at Hulao Pass are insufficient, Yang Su from Luoyang will definitely send more troops. reinforce.

If the troops in Luoyang are not enough, the other four passes will definitely divide their troops to support them. If this is the case, this battle will become a meaningless war of attrition. "

Having said this, the counselors instantly understood that if the princes were not willing to fight a war of attrition, their troops would still be consumed.

Therefore, when the princes understand this, they will definitely choose to divide their troops. For the princes, it must not be a war of attrition, otherwise the casualties will be too great, and it may even allow Great Qin to take a breather. When Great Qin calms down, then it will be Everything is over.
