Cultivation in the starry sky

Chapter 491 Cao Cao's Suggestion

After that earth-shattering Hulaoguan battle.

The coalition forces began to attack Hulaoguan on a large scale, sending troops to attack uninterrupted early in the morning every day.

But it's a pity that Hulao Pass is too majestic. For several days in a row, the coalition forces didn't even attack the top of the city.

Tens of thousands of troops were lost, but it had no effect at all, which brought the morale of the coalition forces to its lowest point.

So the coalition forces stopped attacking, Yuan Shao and others were also discussing in the barracks, what should they do?
"Everyone, the morale of the army is low, and Hulaoguan is like Optimus Prime. How can we break this cage?"

Yuan Shao, who was sitting in the main seat, looked at the many princes below and said.

These few days, Yuan Shao has been quite bad, and he has been unable to break through the Hulao Pass, which makes his position in the alliance more and more challenged.

And more importantly, he wanted to take revenge, but now he was hopeless. If he couldn't break through the Hulao Gate, then he would never have the chance to take revenge.

In addition, the food and grass consumed by the millions of troops every day is also an astronomical figure. Dong Zhuo can afford it, but the alliance cannot afford it.

So now Yuan Shao is extremely anxious.

Hearing Yuan Shao's inquiry, all the people present shook their heads helplessly. Obviously, they had no good solution.

The majesty of Hulao Pass is there. If you want to break through this Hulao Pass, you can only rely on this strength. It is obviously difficult for any conspiracy to make a difference.

Silence, silence, leaving only the sound of breathing in the camp.

"Mr. Yuan, don't worry. Our coalition forces now have millions of troops, while Dong Zhuo's Hulao Pass only has about 20 troops."

"In terms of strength alone, we are stronger than the opponent. As long as we can persevere, the final victory belongs to us."

This is what the good old man Kong Rong said. He didn't think about it. He just talked about strength. It is true that the coalition army is stronger than Dong Zhuo's army.

But he didn't expect that the coalition forces would consume a lot of food and grass because of the large number of soldiers.

However, Yuan Shao also nodded to Kong Rong's comfort. He also knew that he was a little impatient. Now their coalition forces should be able to break through the Hulao Pass as long as they follow the steps.

It's just that this has lost some of his prestige. These days, his brother has been slandering him constantly.

It was for his position as the leader, which made him very angry, but he couldn't do anything about it, because the other party could stand firm.

And he called everyone to the parliament today, in fact, he wanted to see if his brother had already won enough princes, and then he was going to force him into the palace.

You must know that the interior of the coalition forces is not harmonious.

There are even many factions here, especially him and his brother Yuan Shu, which are even more opposed, and they are not convinced by each other.

If it was not for the unified goal, but revenge, I am afraid that his brother would have exploded long ago.

However, in the tent, Yuan Shao was relieved a lot through observation.Obviously his brother was not recognized by many princes.

This is good news.

"In the beginning, the army, which lost tens of thousands these days, did not make it to Hulao Pass, which dealt a blow to the morale of the army,"

"That's right! I don't know if Meng Deke has any suggestions." Yuan Shao nodded, looked at Cao Cao and asked.

"I have observed these days. The reason why the army failed to attack the city is because our army lacks some leading generals. If these fierce generals are allowed to attack Hulao Pass together, I believe that with their leading momentum, they should be able to take the lead. leading an army to the top of the city"

Cao Cao thought for a while and couldn't help but suggest.

Cao Cao's suggestion made the princes present stunned when they heard the words, and asked their generals to take the lead in attacking Hulao Pass. This suggestion is indeed good.

Generally speaking, many fierce generals like to take the lead in attacking.

But since that day when Lu Bu's demon-like posture came into their eyes, they did not dare to let their army attack.

Because they knew that once they met this person, they obviously didn't have the confidence that their general could resist Fang Tian's halberd.

"Everyone, I know what you are worried about, but Lu Bu is not a god. Although his strength is indeed superb, he is not absolutely invincible."

"You all saw the battle that day. As long as there are enough strong generals, Lu Bu will also be defeated. I have also investigated. Dong Zhuo's subordinates do not have many strong generals. Except for Lu Bu and that Hua Xiong, There’s no such thing as a strong general.”

"And our coalition forces have quite a few strong generals. As long as we send some to contain Lu Bu and Hua Xiong, the other generals will lead the army to attack Hulao Pass. I believe that we will be able to attack."

Seeing that many princes present were silent, Cao Cao was a little anxious, so he continued.

He knew why those princes were silent. It was nothing more than worrying that the general under his account would be in danger, which would damage his own strength.

But the more this is the case, the less likely they are to think of breaking the Hulao Pass.I have to say that Cao Cao at this time is not the later Wei Wang.

At this moment, he is quite loyal to the Han family. His ideal at this moment is still to be a general who conquers the West. Huo Qubing is his idol of Cao Cao.

Therefore, among the allied forces, defeating Dong Zhuo and rescuing Emperor Xian was his most active, while most of the other princes had this or that purpose.

Just like the two Yuan brothers, they didn't have the slightest loyalty to the Han Dynasty.Dong Zhuo's entry to Beijing was due to his Yuan family's plan.

Their Yuan family had already had the idea of ​​replacing the Han Dynasty.

And the Yellow Turban Rebellion shattered the last glimmer of hope of the big man, which made their Yuan family see hope.

The death of Emperor Ling gave the Yuan family hope even more. The Yuan family sat and watched the situation between their relatives and eunuchs, and when the time came, they revealed their bloodthirsty minions.

It is to suggest that General He Jin recruit Dong Zhuo to Beijing. Dong Zhuo at that time can be said to be a dog cultivated by them.

But the Yuan family never imagined that their dog turned into a tiger wolf, and then began to attack their master.

In Luoyang City, their Yuan family was almost uprooted by the action, except for some disciples of his Yuan family who escaped.

The patriarchs of the previous generation, including the Yuan family, were all snapped away by Dong Zhuo.

Therefore, no one hated Dong Zhuo more than Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.

But if they want to do this, they must first take down Hulao Pass, and if they can’t take Hulao Pass, they have no choice.
