The princes retreated and returned to their respective camps.

Yuan Shao first went to see Yan Liang and Wen Chou's injuries before finding Xu Youfengji and the others to discuss.

"The method of using troops is to surround them ten times, attack them five times, and divide them into multiples. Our number is far less than the multiples of the enemy. Dong Zhuo also has the natural danger of Hulao Pass. If we attack strongly, it is very likely that we will fail." Xu You said.

"Zi Yuan's words are reasonable. Lord, since we cannot attack Hulao Pass, why don't we divide the troops around the back?"

"What should you do according to your plan?"

"Attack Luoyang around the back and force Dong Zhuo to divide his troops to retreat." Feng Ji said.

"This plan is not possible." Xu You stopped it, "It is a big taboo to go deep into the enemy's back! Let me ask you, if you go around the back and attack Luoyang, how many people should be sent."

Feng Ji Xiang said afterwards: "Fifty thousand people should be able to capture Luoyang. There are still many people in Luoyang City who are interested in the Han Emperor. As long as our army arrives at Luoyang City and cooperates inside and outside, we can take Luoyang."

"Then do you know how much military rations consumed every day for 50,000 people." Xu You asked. "Do you know what will happen if the army has no food? It will collapse. The entire army will be noisy and mutiny, and will be defeated without a fight!"

If we can't even solve the most basic food and clothing problem, there are not many troops who can work hard for the general.

Even if there is a military force, it is extremely rare, and it can only be achieved by the elite.

Feng Ji was stunned, then frowned and calculated hard. The result of the calculation made Feng Ji look bad.

"You can bring more food."

"How many do you want to bring?" Xu You said. "It seems good to go deep into the enemy's back and attack Luoyang, but it is a taboo to go deep into the enemy's back and there is no foreign aid to go deep into the enemy's back. The enemy sieges from all sides, and then firmly clear the walls and clear the field without giving a chance. The enemy's chief general does not even need to attack. He only needs to be siege to defeat the army. Moreover, if you want to rely on the logistics of transporting grain, it is even more nonsense. The long supply line is too dangerous. The enemy can easily burn all the food away. You can't expect the logistics troops to preserve the food intact and defeat the attacking enemies. If we are really strong to this extent, why should we do this?

"Just! In your opinion, so many soldiers in history have taken dangerous attacks on enemy rears and aren't it worthless?" Feng Ji's face was embarrassed. Xu You, this guy, seemed to have taken gunpowder today, always criticizing him. He was also giving advice to his lord.

"It is precisely because it is extremely difficult to go deep behind enemy lines that every successful battle cannot be copied and can be famous all over the world." Xu You said.

"Then how do you think you should deal with it? Is it possible to attack Hulao Pass stupidly? It's ridiculous. This is not OK, and that's not OK. I think everyone will go back and let that villain Dong Zhuo succeed." Feng Ji said.

Xu You said slowly: "My plan is to attack Luoyang from the back."

"?" Your words seemed familiar, as if they had just said it half a cup of tea before, and Feng Ji began to look for his sword. He felt that Xu You was playing with him.

Yuan Shao was angry, "Ziyuan, don't mess around."

"Don't worry, lord, Xu Ziyuan is certain to say this. Luoyang is located in Sili. If you want to attack Luoyang from the rear, you need to go through many checkpoints. This mission is extremely dangerous. Therefore, I do not recommend that lord go around the back and attack Luoyang. There are other people who sneak attack Luoyang." Xu You said.

Yuan Shao's face darkened and he said slowly: "Are you talking about Fang Mu?"

“That’s right.”

"But why would he agree to this suggestion? You also said that it is very dangerous to go around, and Fang Mu will definitely not agree." Yuan Shao said.

"He will agree, because he will get what he wants by conquering Luoyang first."

"What."

"Reputation, fame, and the wealth accumulated by the royal family in the palace for countless years."

Yuan Shao's face changed slightly.

These things are what he wants.

"Wait, if you ask me to say that your plan is too dangerous, why would Fang Mu be willing to take such a big risk to take this dangerous move? Could it be that you and Fang Mu secretly colluded with each other?" Feng Ji sneered.

Xu You glanced at Feng Ji indifferently, and then said slowly: "Because Fang Mu has this strength, he is the governor of Youzhou and has the Iron Cavalry of Youzhou under his command. He only needs to send a good general from the northern grassland to bypass Bingzhou and head south from the Hedong Plain to enter Luoyang. No one in the whole world can replicate this battle except him."

cavalry......

Yuan Shao felt longing.

He suddenly wanted to train an invincible elite cavalry.

However, the cavalry was good at cavalry in the north, Liang and You, and it was very difficult for him to cultivate an elite cavalry.

"Why should the lord worry about these external things? If you gain and lose land, you will gain, and you will lose land. If you retain land, you will lose land." Xu You smiled faintly, "Fang Mu sent people to attack Luoyang, and even if you conquer Luoyang, you will definitely suffer a lot. More importantly, he can only gain some fame and wealth by taking Luoyang. He cannot occupy Luoyang City unless he is willing to be the second Dong Zhuo."

"After taking down Mu and Dong Zhuo below Luoyang will inevitably make a mortal enemy. At that time, the lord only needs to be a fisherman on the wall to gain profits." Xu You said.

"Okay." Yuan Shao said.

Seeing that the lord agreed, a smile appeared on Xu You's face.

Feng Ji noticed the guy's smile and his face was gloomy. He understood that the conversation just now was Xu You who dug a hole for him to jump down.

As for the purpose, his purpose was nothing more than to ensure his position as the chief adviser under the lord.

This guy is so angry that Feng Ji is so angry that he is tickle.

Then Xu You went to Fang Mu's camp instead of Yuan Shao to inform Fang Mu of the plan. Fang Mu did not indicate his attitude, but just asked Xu You to retreat in an ambiguous manner, saying that he had to consider it.

"How do you view Yuan Shao's plan?" Fang Mu asked.

Guo Jia said: "This is not like Yuan Shao's style, but more like the strategy proposed by Xu You."

"It's just a clumsy plot. If you want to use your interests to lure us to attack Luoyang and Dong Zhuo to make enemies. Yuan Shao is developing in Jizhou, and we are in Youzhou in northern Jizhou. If Yuan Shao wants to develop, he will inevitably have conflicts with us, then Xu You is giving us eye drops." Xi Zhicai said.

After two years of recuperation, the duo of Sick and Yangzi has now had a much rosy complexion. In addition, Fang Mu urged them to practice the five animal show he had asked for from Hua Tuo every day. It is strictly forbidden to take Wushi Powder and drink moderately. Guo Jia went to brothels every month with strict restrictions. Now that the hidden dangers of the two of them have been eliminated, the symptoms of Xi Zhicai's cough have been relieved a lot.

"But Xu You's strategy is not impossible to use." Guo Jia said with a smile, "Dong Zhuo continued to be stationed in Hulao Pass for a long time and it was not good for us. The other dynasties and dynasties around him would not wait and see. The expedition to Dong Zhuo should end earlier. In my opinion, the lord might as well send Zhang He. The two generals Zhang Liao led the cavalry to detour from the grassland and enter Hedong. Along the way, he bluffed and intimidated Dong Zhuo and forced him to evacuate Hulao Pass. Even if he did not completely evacuate, he would have to divide his troops. After Dong Zhuo divided his troops, you can attack Hulao Pass head-on, which can also consume the troops of other princes."

"Don't you really fight Luoyang?" Fang Mu felt that it was not impossible to win Luoyang with the cooperation of Zhang Liao and Zhang He.

Xi Zhicai said, "Unless the lord is willing to be a pillar of the Han Dynasty, it is not recommended that the lord take down Luoyang."

Fang Mu immediately sent someone Fei Ge to send a letter to inform Zhang Liao and Zhang He that the two generals took a detour from the grassland to enter Sili from the Hedong Plain, and forced Dong Zhuo to return to the aid based on harassment.
