When everyone thought of Chi You's existence, they all felt dizzy.
This Chi You is simply an inexplicable existence. Today, Xue Rengui, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei are already the leading generals in the Han army in Yecheng. But that day, these three people plus Liu Xuande were almost not Chi You's
Opponent. From this, we can see the ferocity of Chi You's military force.
But if Chi You was just extremely powerful, everyone here would definitely not be able to do anything against him.
In the eyes of everyone, he is just a reckless man with only force. Even if he gains enlightenment for a while, he will never achieve anything great. At that time, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, was invincible in the world, but in the end he was defeated by the three outstanding soldiers of the early Han Dynasty.
In the hands of Han Xin?
But in addition to his unparalleled martial arts skills, Chi You also showed considerable accomplishments in the way of commanding troops.
You may not have noticed that the current general of Ye City, Lu Zhi, is already one of the top famous generals of the Han Dynasty. But when Lu Zhi faced Chi You's attack, he was still full of flaws and could not keep up with Chi You's attack rhythm.
If it had not been for Xue Rengui's help this time in Ye City, it is doubtful whether Ye City could have been preserved in the hands of the Han Dynasty. In this Ye City, I am afraid that only Xue Rengui could compete with Chi You in terms of commander-in-chief.
High and low.
Speaking of Xue Rengui, everyone looked in the direction of Li Xiang with envy and jealousy.
"The sky is so unfair. How can Li Xiang, a young man, be so virtuous and capable that he should be allowed to win over such a general as Xue Rengui?" Everyone here thought secretly.
"I wonder if you have any strategies to help Governor Dong and his army enter the city smoothly?" It was Lu Zhi who started to ask.
After hearing what Lu Zhi said, Li Xiang inadvertently and quietly hinted at Xue Rengui.
With Xue Rengui's intelligence, he naturally understood the meaning of his lord's hint, and immediately understood that it was time for him to appear.
In fact, before this, Xue Rengui had already analyzed the Yecheng war for Li Xiang and put forward some of his own ideas. Li Xiang also made his own decision after that.
Now, Dong Zhuo's arrival has just provided an opportunity for Li Xiang and Xue Rengui.
"General, why do you think you have to force Governor Dong and his army to enter the city?" Xue Rengui finally spoke.
"Oh, I wonder what Captain Xue has to say." A flash of inspiration flashed in Lu Zhi's mind, as if he had thought of something, but in the end he did not catch the flash of inspiration, and just asked Xue Rengui helplessly.
"The general thought that after the arrival of reinforcements from Bingyou, Yecheng's cavalry now numbered 40,000.
However, such a large number of cavalry was not effectively utilized. Sometimes the cavalry had to dismount to participate in the defense of the city.
The general believes that this move is really inappropriate and is simply a waste for our current situation in Yecheng." Xue Rengui said in a condensed voice, and even at the end, Xue Rengui's tone became a little heavier.
After a pause, Xue Rengui continued, "From the general's point of view, rather than taking the risk of letting Prefect Dong and his army enter the city, it is better to let him stay outside the city.
Not only that, we in Yecheng can even send more cavalry to protrude outside the city and join up with Governor Dong.
With two cavalry, whether they are distracting the Yellow Turban army outside or splitting up troops to attack the Yellow Turban grain road, it is much more useful than just staying in Yecheng."
After hearing Xue Rengui's words, Lu Zhi immediately secretly cried out that he had miscalculated. Why didn't he think of this? He really shouldn't have. Lu Zhi secretly blamed himself several times in his heart.
In fact, it's not surprising that Lu Zhi didn't think of this. With Lu Zhi's commanding ability, he would not make such a mistake under normal circumstances.
But the current situation can be said to be that the direction of the Jizhou War and even the safety of the Han Dynasty are all tied to Lu Zhi. Coupled with the pressure caused by Chi You's attacks in recent days, Lu Zhi ignored some things that he should not have done.
Something to ignore.
"General, if we really want to send troops out of the city, I have a plan. Not to mention defeating the Yellow Turbans, but it will be easy to cause some trouble to the Yellow Turbans." After Xue Rengui spoke, Li Xiang on the other side also spoke.
These days, Xue Rengui's performance was too stunning, which made it difficult for Li Xiang to hide anymore and paddle secretly.
After all, if Xue Rengui performs so amazingly, and if Li Xiang himself performs so mediocre, how will others view him? I'm afraid everyone will think that Li Xiang is just a mediocre person who can only rely on his subordinates and has no real talent.
Just the Lord.
"Oh, I wonder what the young general has up his sleeve?" After Lu Zhi heard Li Xiang's words, he also started to become interested. Lu Zhi didn't really think that it would be easy to subdue a general like Xue Rengui.
After all, after getting along with each other these days, Lu Zhi was the one who had the deepest impression of Xue Rengui's use of military force. But it was precisely because of this that Lu Zhi deeply understood that there was still a long way to go between himself and Xue Rengui when it came to the art of war.
"General, I think that if our Han cavalry really wants to attack, given the overwhelming power of the Yellow Turbans, we may use guerrilla tactics." Li Xiang said with a faint smile.
"I wonder what the guerrilla tactics the young general mentioned are?" Lu Zhi was extremely confused about what Li Xiang said. After all, he had never heard of guerrilla tactics.
At this time, everyone in the lobby pricked up their ears, wanting to hear what this guerrilla tactic they had never heard of was like.
"Without him, if the enemy advances, I retreat; if the enemy retreats, I advance; if the enemy is stationed, I harass; if the enemy is tired, I fight." Li Xiang said calmly, not caring about what others thought at all.
Everyone here thought carefully about what Li Xiang said for a while, and then took a breath of cold air. If this tactic is used, under certain circumstances, the enemies will really have a headache.
After a long time, Lu Zhicai took a deep breath and said, "Although what the young general said is only a short number of ten, it really captures the essence of the art of war."
Now that the decision has been made to send the cavalry out of the city, the next step is to send out the generals.
"I wonder which general dares to lead an army out of the city and take a walk?" Lu Zhihao said loudly.
In response, everyone here unanimously looked in the direction of Li Xiang.
Li Xiang was naturally prepared for this. After all, more than half of the tens of thousands of cavalry in Yecheng at this time were Li Xiang's Bingzhou cavalry. Moreover, guerrilla tactics were also proposed by Li Xiang. In summary, Li Xiang was the only candidate to send troops.
Already.
And Li Xiang will naturally not refuse to send troops. For Li Xiang, today's Yecheng is more like a cage. Only by getting out of Yecheng can Li Xiang do more things and play a greater role.
Thinking of this, Li Xiang became more confident and immediately took a step forward to ask for a fight.
