Chapter 380 Changes in the Situation

After waiting at Sishui Pass for two days, two thousand soldiers from different forces came to help defend one after another. What was originally expected was the surprise attack troops sent by Yuan Shu.

"It seems that their losses are greater than expected..." Guo Jia sat on a low stool, and hadn't recovered from pulling for more than a day.

"Feng Xiao's body is too weak, and he still needs to exercise more!" Li Ming said with great interest.

"Ashamed..." Guo Jia looked at Xi Zhicai. Originally, Xi Zhicai was as weak as him, but now he is full of energy, without any sequelae of diarrhea, and his complexion seems to have become better.

"On the battlefield, there are many cases where the plan cannot keep up with the changes. If Yuan Shu sent a group of dead soldiers, it would not be easy to pry their mouths open." Xi Zhicai smiled, looked at Li Ming and said.

At this moment, Dianjie hurried in and came to Li Ming to ask for instructions: "Master, please see Cao Cao!"

"Let him in!" Li Ming nodded, Yuan Shao wanted to stabilize the army in the rear, this time it was Cao Cao who brought people here.

Not long after, Cao Cao came in anxiously, looked at Li Ming, and said slowly: "Sunday, reinforcements came from Sishui Pass, there are [-] infantry, [-] cavalry, and [-] archers, a total of [-] people joined Sishui Pass." The defense of the water pass!"

"It's no wonder that Hua Xiong hasn't been dispatched these days. So he asked Luoyang for reinforcements? But isn't that irrational? After all, Sishui Pass is just a small checkpoint, and it's not worth investing so many soldiers at all!" Li Ming suddenly Suddenly, at the same time, new doubts came to my mind.

"It's nothing strange!" Cao Cao replied, "I can't see clearly from a distance, but Cao has been in Luoyang anyway, so the Fifth Northern Army School can recognize him. Dong Zhuo seems to be planning to test The main purpose of the fighting strength of the Fifth Northern Army School is probably to use our hands to consume the original Luoyang army."

"This is very possible!" Guo Jia raised his back in a rare way, "Dong Zhuo has only been in Beijing for more than a year, and he has not yet fully controlled the fifth school of the Northern Army and the eighth school of Xiyuan. Instead of wasting time to subdue them, it is better to use them. Spend our troops!"

"It's just that he didn't think about it, if these soldiers directly join our command, then he will suffer a loss?" Li Ming laughed.

"Families of the Fifth Northern Army School are all in Luoyang, and most of the soldiers are the people of Sili! Originally, the Fifth Northern Army School had some scruples. If Dong Zhuo promises high officials and generous salary, gold, silver and treasures, and even martial arts and martial arts skills, it will not be worth it." Worry about their disobedience!" Cao Cao reminded.

"When will our main army arrive?" Li Ming looked at Cao Cao.

"Our army just stopped having diarrhea yesterday. Now most of the soldiers are exhausted. Let them come to die? But there is also good news. Just in the morning, a traveling doctor named Hua Tuo came to the army and prescribed the medicine. To help the soldiers regain their spirits quickly, Yuan Shao has already begun to collect herbs according to the prescription, and he will surely arrive at Sishui Pass within three days!" Cao Cao replied.

"I just don't know if the enemy will give us three days! Lao Cao, if we are attacked within three days, can you control the two thousand soldiers? If not, let them go back and leave your headquarters behind." !" Li Ming looked at Cao Cao.

"I can't!" Cao Cao shook his head, "Although I am a military adviser, I don't have that much authority. If Yuan Shao goes out, maybe they can help. Among the more than 2000 people, only Bao Xin, Zhang Chao, and Zhang Miao, Hundreds of people like Gongsun Zan and Cao can be mobilized, but the other 1000 people cannot be mobilized at all!"

"If that's the case, let them go back! I don't want to be held back by my own people when I'm fighting with others!" Li Ming directly issued the deportation order.

"The army will definitely come to join us. It's not appropriate for you to let them go back and forth like this. If you don't let them stand by in Xingyang, maybe they can come to support us at a critical moment!" Cao Cao didn't want to offend the other princes too much, so proposal.

"Alright!" Li Ming looked at Guo Jia, who nodded and responded.

"I have to say, I haven't seen you for a few years, and there are a lot of talented and powerful generals under Riyao's command!" Naturally, Cao Cao was not deceived by this action, and the latter was only emotional.

Li Ming was born in a poor family, perhaps the prefect of Kuaiji County was the end of his political career.The key is in terms of attractiveness to talents. The humble family is naturally inferior to the powerful family. As a result, after two days of observation, it was found that he had several fierce generals under his command. Guo Jia is a rare talent.

Unknowingly, the poor boy of the past gradually began to gain foundation.If it weren't for the fact that there were too few members in the family, it couldn't be regarded as a real family. In terms of background, it was no less than their Cao family.

"There are sages in the countryside, and there are brave generals in the grass. I am an outstanding man, but we have not discovered too many talents! But the top talents still come from aristocratic families!" Li Ming said with a smile. The value of cultivation, the talents that can be put into use immediately, almost come from aristocratic families.

"The world is like this, but Ri Yao's words are quite reasonable, as expected, we can't focus on the aristocratic family!" Cao Cao smiled, obviously Li Ming's words were still very useful to him.

Half a day later, the soldiers who received the order had different reactions.Some were dissatisfied with Li Ming's underestimation of them, while some thought it was just right, and were even a little lucky.These reactions were all in Cao Cao's eyes. At the same time, he also felt that Li Ming's decision was normal. Keeping these guys in the army would only hinder him at critical moments.

Those soldiers who are determined to stay basically have no complaints and do what they should do.Those whose names were called quickly packed their bags and left the army that afternoon.

Naturally, Li Ming's actions in the army could not be hidden from Hua Xiong's spies.It's just that the person in charge of the army is not Hua Xiong, but Yang Xing from the Fifth Academy of the Northern Army.This is also an old acquaintance of Li Ming, but what he didn't expect was that he would abandon literature and pursue martial arts, and even became the head of the Fifth School of the Northern Army.

"Hahaha! Originally, it was only three thousand, even with the follow-up troops, it was only five thousand. It is rare to not ask for help, but they even took the initiative to transfer a group of soldiers. Didn't they tell us to attack him?" Yang Xing laughed.

His family asked him to abandon literature and pursue martial arts, but he actually resisted. It wasn't until Dong Zhuo entered Beijing that he realized that without military power, he was nothing.Looking at the officials in the court, no matter how high their status is, they can only be Dong Zhuo's echoes.

"My lord, seeing that the coalition forces have not yet arrived, it would be a great achievement if we can break through Li Ming's vanguard!" The captain below suggested, after all, many of them were unwilling to come out to guard Sishui Pass.

Many people are eager to make meritorious deeds quickly, and then return to Luoyang to live a good life.

"No! Li Ming is not easy to deal with. Since he dared to transfer these thousands of soldiers, he must have his own intentions!" Hua Xiong refused.

"General Hua, Taiwei Dong has ordered me to take the lead here!" Yang Xing looked at Hua Xiong, and cast a look of disdain at this already at the end of his strength.So what if he was a general under Dong Zhuo's command in the past?Now it's just a lingering waste!

"The whole army listens to the order!" Yang Xing stood up and shouted slowly, "Follow me to attack the coalition camp tonight!"

"Here!" The generals under his command responded one after another, even Hao Meng responded positively.
