In response to Zhao Yun's questioning, Yuan Xi couldn't comment, but he didn't answer and felt a little cold for a while.
"What you are worried about, Young Master, is that the Xiliang army retreated this time. Do you have other plans?" Seeing Yuan Xi's unkind expression, Zhang Liao stepped forward to rescue him.
"Although we have forced Dong Zhuo back, where will the food and grass for these two hundred thousand people come from?"
Yuan Xi took over the conversation and analyzed it slowly.
"If we enter Luoyang, our army will be in a dilemma. There is a natural danger at Hangu Pass. Our front is too long and it will be difficult to supply. If we retreat, all our efforts will be wasted."
This is the situation faced by the Allies.
Li Ru, too, had calculated this point and simply withdrew from Henan, strengthening the walls and clearing the country, and lengthening the Allied front.
Strategically speaking, there is nothing wrong with not attacking.
But morally speaking, this is wrong.
Especially, idealistic defenders like Zhao Yun who have expectations and beauty for the Han Dynasty.
"The rest of them may not be of much use, but Grand Administrator Sun and our troops can still fight, right?"
Zhao Yun tried to persuade Yuan Xi to send troops.
"Prefect Sun? Soon, you will know what General Sun has done. The stakes are not as simple as you think. Let's go and have a look." After that, Yuan Xi rode his horse and left first. .
Chasing Dong Zhuo is not cost-effective from a military point of view, but politically speaking, it is the righteousness of the world, a brave warrior, and a prince in charge of the city.
Zhao Yun is very stupid and naive, but this is the unique Zhao Yun, Bai Yueguang of that era, but Yuan Xi really can't hate him.
Yuan Xi: What should I do if you call me?
If Yuan Shao wants to establish a court, this strategy is feasible, but it must meet several conditions. First, Liu Yu must be obedient. Second, he must have at least three states. Third, he must have the support of half of the ministers. Fourth, he must be Unify with Yuan Shu, political stance, fifth, tail-wagging system, build public opinion. All of these are indispensable, and at this time, Yuan Shao does not have this kind of strength. When he has this kind of strength, the best opportunity is missed again, and God is really kidding.
At this time, Liu Yu was a prince with soldiers and generals, but Yuan Shao had not yet unified the north.
The ministers in the court have already acquiesced to the orthodox status of Emperor Xian, and if they want to gain the support of Yuan Shu, then the sun must come out from the west.
As for the advantage of public opinion, Yuan Shao does not have overwhelming political control and does not take advantage of people.
Sun Jian: I, Sun Wentai, am a poor scholar from the east of the Yangtze River. I have no merit in my life. Without Yuan Shu, people in the world would despise me.
Sun Jian: I, Sun Jian, will definitely live up to you.
Yuan Xi: If Tian Feng were here, he shouldn't have ordered me to have such a great shame. Who would have remonstrated with me, considering the long history of heaven and earth?
Taizong of the Jin Dynasty, Emperor Xuanwu, actual records.
Yuan Xi: Heaven is so kind to me, how can I take away Tian Feng’s speed? What a pity! What a pain! ! Give me back Mr. Tian!
Yuan Xi: Huh? Mr. Tian? Aren't you dead?
Tian Feng: Uh, what, the king dislikes the old minister?
Yuan Xi: No, no, I miss you so much, Mr. Tian.
Tian Feng: Alas, the king is getting thinner and thinner.
Yuan Xi: Are you really Mr. Tian? Don't lie to me?
Tian Feng: If it’s fake, don’t let me scold you.
Yuan Xi: It’s really Mr. Tian, I miss you so much.
Tian Feng: Your Majesty, your Majesty has been slacking off a lot in government affairs recently.
Yuan Xi: Don’t worry, Mr. Tian, boy, change it immediately.
Tian Feng: Okay, I’m leaving, my king. Take care.
Yuan Xi: Huh? No, don't go, Mr. Tian.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Yuan Xi: Don’t go, Mr. Tian, don’t go.
