Chapter 234
() "Oh, after hearing what Brother Wenyou said, I seem to understand a little bit..." Ma Yue smiled and nodded: "But what you said is also very reasonable. After all, in addition to leading troops in combat, a general in charge of an army can also
We also need to consider all other aspects of our team, especially we need to have a clear understanding of the current situation."
"Exactly." Although Li Ru was slightly surprised by Ma Yue's reaction, he still agreed smoothly: "So in addition to his merits, the candidate to be selected today should also talk about his contribution to the future of our Xiliang Army.
conception.”
"Then I'll go first!" Niu Fu immediately answered: "The most important thing for us now is to hold on to Chang'an City and send troops to harass the retreating enemy troops so that they can no longer pose a threat to us.
!”
"General Niu's method is very good! In addition, I thought that we could divide our troops to occupy several important passes around Chang'an, and then based on the situation, we would see whether we should march into Luoyang again. Presumably, the Kwantung Allied Forces have lost the intention to fight again.
It’s not that easy to defend Luoyang anymore!” As a good friend of Niu Fu, Hu Zhen also said.
"I think the most important thing we should do now is to concentrate our forces and attack the Kwantung Allied Forces to completely annihilate them!" At this time, Li Que put forward a different view: "Our situation is already very good now.
And the Kwantung Allied Forces have lost their fighting spirit after suffering this defeat. If they can take another city and completely annihilate them near Chang'an, it will definitely shock the world, so that people in the world will no longer dare to look down on us and become our enemies!"
His proposal was also unanimously approved by people such as Guo Fan and others, who nodded in favor. Ma Yue watched them coldly as they continued to say these words that had been rehearsed, with a sarcastic smile flashing in his eyes. What they meant was his.
It was obvious at a glance that they wanted to do everything possible to prevent their father from taking the position of general. And the method they used was very simple, that is, they did not recognize the saying that military merit was the first, but took the so-called overall situation into consideration.
The more dangerous thing about them is that they have told all the decisions that the Xiliang Army may make. In this way, even if the Ma family has any suggestions in this regard, they will just pick up people's wisdom and follow the trend, and they will no longer be able to make people
Convinced. And this approach is clearly a rogue act. It means clearly telling Ma Yue and the others that we just don’t want you to sit in this position.
But Ma Yue would never give in on this matter. He had worked hard for so long and took continuous risks. Even Dong Zhuo was designed to be killed by him. After doing so many things, he was not doing it for others. Even if
At this time, all the generals have made it clear that they are opposed to Ma Teng ascending to the position of general, and he will do everything possible to change everything.
Seeing the trace of ridicule flashing in Ma Yue's eyes, Li Ru, who designed this countermeasure, couldn't help but feel nervous. In fact, this matter didn't have much to do with him, because he was not a general, and the position vacated by Dong Zhuo was not his.
He can sit still. But he is inextricably related to Dong Zhuo's old men, and he is brother-in-law with Niu Fu, so naturally he has to stand on their side. This is why he is willing to dedicate himself to this matter.
The reason for such a strategy. But he was still wary of Ma Yue, a young man who had performed well in front of Dong Zhuo. Especially after seeing his expression, he became even more nervous.
Ma Yue listened to people constantly talking about various opinions, such as sending troops, such as holding on to Chang'an, such as praising the emperor and denouncing the Kwantung Allied Forces as traitors... After all the opinions were not what he thought, he finally felt relieved.
Here it comes. Obviously, these Xiliang generals who are good at attacking are accustomed to firing their bows without turning back, and this is where he is sure of victory.
When everyone had finished speaking, and then many people focused their attention on the Ma family and his son, Ma Yuecai smiled confidently: "Have you all finished your opinions?"
"Yes. I wonder what General Ma has to say about this?" Niu Fupi looked at Ma Teng with a smile, looking confident. They had already made a decision before, and he would temporarily serve as the commander-in-chief of the three armies.
position, after all, he is the person closest to Dong Zhuo. At this time, in order to prevent the Ma family from taking away his power, Niu Fu is still the best candidate.
"I can't speak highly of you. But I just want to ask you one question. Do you think our enemies are only the tens of thousands of Kwantung Allied Forces in front of us?" Ma Yue glanced at the crowd and then asked.
"This..." Everyone was stunned, obviously not understanding why he said this. However, some people who understood the current trend of the world frowned and thought to themselves: "I'm afraid that many local forces in the world have regarded us as
They are enemies. It’s just that they haven’t raised their troops yet..."
Ma Yue did not let them think too much, and immediately gave his answer: "No, our enemies are people from all over the world, at least many local forces who claim to be loyal ministers. The reason why they have not sent troops yet is because they are afraid of us in Xiliang
The bravery of the soldiers in battle, and the Emperor is still in our hands!
"But have you ever thought about what will happen if we continue to fight with the Kwantung Allied Forces? Even if we can really annihilate Yuan Shao and other groups of troops, I am afraid that more than half of our troops will be lost.
Why should we fight with other forces again?"
Hearing Ma Yue's rhetorical question, the generals once again made a blunder and were speechless for a long time. These people are somewhat capable in leading troops in battle, but in terms of strategic vision, they are always lacking. As for
Although Li Ru also thought about this, he didn't really want to implement this plan after all, so he didn't think about it in detail.
But he didn't want to, but Ma Yue thought of it immediately, and pointed out the problem in this matter in one sentence. This made the generals who had been talking about attacking before a little confused about what to do. However, they were not completely without ideas.
, Zhang Ji had an explanation, because what he mentioned before was to stick to the gate of Chang'an: "So guarding the immediate interests is the most critical. As long as Chang'an and the emperor are not lost, we can compete with the heroes of the world."
"Although General Zhang's statement is more reliable than taking the initiative to fight, there is also a problem." However, Ma Yue had already considered this point and immediately continued: "I just said that in addition to the Kwantung Allied Forces, there are more
Many forces from all sides are eyeing us, and
The reason why they haven't sent out troops yet is because they are afraid of the reputation of our Xiliang Army. If we just stay in Chang'an City, they will surely have the courage soon. By then, the combined forces of the two parties will probably
Our situation will be more difficult than before!"
When everyone heard this, their faces darkened. They had to admit that Ma Yue's inference was possible, and would even definitely happen. They didn't expect that they had been waiting for so long to prepare, and after talking so much, they were rejected by Ma Yue in just a few words.
After seeing the scene, they suddenly became a little embarrassed.
Among them, Li Ru's face was even more ugly, because he had come up with all these statements. Isn't Ma Yue slapping him in the face now? This made Li Ru a little unable to bear it, even though Ma Yue had always had a relationship with him.
Yes, we must make it clear: "According to what you say, no matter what we do, it is wrong? Then we simply surrender to the Kwantung Allied Forces in Kaicheng?"
Of course this is an angry remark, but it is also a counterattack. To put it bluntly, it is just as good as your own!
But Ma Yue is really good. Since he can tell the problems of these plans, he naturally has his own set of plans. And what happens is that his plan is the same as the two Li Ru came up with.
Different. So when Li Ru asked him, Ma Yue just smiled indifferently: "Of course I didn't do this. Our Xiliang Army wants to keep the army and get the maximum benefits. In my opinion, there is only one way -" said
When he got here, he paused for a moment and only looked at the many generals around him.
At this time, the generals were also attracted by his words. After Ma Yue's words, they also began to worry about their future, because those words were by no means alarmist, but based on the facts before them.
Reasonable speculation. And now, since Ma Yue said that he had a way for everyone to avoid possible situations, they naturally couldn't help but want to know, even though Ma Yue was currently their opponent.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Ma Yue continued: "Chang'an has no value to us now. Apart from the fact that it is the capital of the Han Dynasty, it is just a good city. But for those
As for the local forces who regard us as their enemies, we occupy Chang'an. Even if we present a target for them to attack, they have sufficient excuses to use troops against us.
"Not only the city of Chang'an, but also the emperor of that day, to us now, it is no different than this piece of chicken ribs!" Ma Yue pointed to the plate of chicken on the tables in front of him with his chopsticks and said: "It's tasteless.
, it’s a pity to abandon it! But if you want to achieve great things, you should be willing to give up, even if it’s Chang’an and the Emperor, we should give up when we should give up!”
"What did you say? Let us give up Chang'an City and the Emperor?" After hearing these words, the generals were all furious and shouted: "What kind of idea is this? It is clearly retreating. Compared with
It’s even more spineless to defend Chang’an!”
"That's right, I thought you had some good ideas, but it turned out to be such a bad idea. Do you think those people won't be our enemies after we leave Chang'an City?"
"I'm afraid that by then, they will think that we are cowardly and attack us with all their strength. By then, it will not only be the Kwantung Allied Forces that send troops to attack us, but all the forces in the world..."
