Because Lu Bu retreated too quickly, all the princes hurried forward with a few days of food and grass army. The heavy army only set off after dawn. As a result, it has been almost two days since the army arrived in Luoyang. The grain and grass hadn't arrived yet. I thought there would be grain and grass in Luoyang city, but they didn't expect that what they got was a piece of white Luoyang city. In addition, Cao Cao's rebuke made everyone feel embarrassed, so now the leader of Yuan Da has not held any banquets. Now everyone is staying in their camp, waiting for the follow-up arrangements from the leader, but his own army of food and grass is also sent. People rushed.

Hearing Huangfu Chaobo's visit, Kong Yu brought people out to greet him. Huangfu Chaobo, at the gate of Kong Ni’s Daying, saw Kong Ni with a large group of people coming out, thinking that he had something to do, but he didn’t expect to come out to greet him, and he didn’t dare to walk up to Kong Ni, respectfully. He saluted respectfully and called his uncle. Then he said hello to the civilian officials and generals who came out together. The attitude of Huangfu Chaobo made Kong Yu and his subordinates very satisfied. In fact, it was also an idea from a strategist to test Huangfu Chaobo's attitude. Everyone saw Huangfu Chaobo as before. Treating oneself, they all have a good impression of Huangfu Chaobo. Seeing that their goals had been achieved, everyone in Kong Yu didn't say more, and brought Huangfu Chaobo back to their big account.

After getting into the big tent, after everyone settled down, Kong Yu said, "My nephew just took over the government affairs in Luoyang, so how come there is time to come to the old man's tent?"

Huangfu Chaobo didn't say anything else, and he went forward and explained his intentions. Hearing Huangfu Chaobo finished speaking, Kong Ji's eyes flashed with light, but he was quickly covered up by him. Huangfu Chaobo didn't find it, but he didn't escape the observation of Lou Gui behind Huangfu Chaobo. Seeing Kong Gui's expression, Lou Gui couldn't help but sigh. He didn't expect that all of this would be super-blogged by Huangfu. Seeing Kong Yu should mean wanting to retreat. Qingliu like Kong Yu wanted to retreat. , Let alone other princes.

As I was thinking, I could only hear Kong Yu say: "Oh, nephew Yixian meant that the leader of Yuan Yuan was about to retreat? Why hasn't the old man received the news?" For Kong You's men, Huangfu Chaobo knows it, so when he heard Kong Yu's words, Huangfu Chaobo reacted. Kong Yu also wanted to retreat, saying: "This is also speculated after my nephew and Mr. Lou have discussed it. There is no news from Yuan leader. When it comes out, even if there is news, you should first inform your uncle and other adults, and then inform Chaobo. Please Mr. Lou to explain this matter to your uncle." He nodded at Lou Gui.

Lou Gui stepped forward and bowed to everyone in Kong Ni, telling everyone what Huangfu Chaobo had said to him, as well as his own speculations. While listening to Lou Gui's words, Huangfu Chaobo had time to observe the expressions of Kong Yu's people. Seeing that the two of them were telling the retreat, there were not many surprised expressions on Kong Yu's faces. Huangfu Chaobo was even more certain that Kong Yu and his subordinates wanted to fight. Although Kong Ji actively responded to Cao Cao's messages, it didn't mean that everyone was willing to come and smash Dong Zhuo with their soldiers. Sure enough, after Lou Gui finished speaking, Xu Jing under Kong Ni stood up and said, "I know what General Huangfu and Mr. Lou mean. I'm still discussing this matter with the talents, and I haven't discussed a result yet. Listening to Mr. Lou’s words, Jing can affirm that Meng Yuan and all the princes must be willing to retreat. In this way, the lord and I should also be prepared to retreat. In order not to let people lose their tongue, I can wait and watch the changes. Certainly some of the princes will propose to retreat first, and then the lord will only need to second it."

Several other counsellors also spoke to Kong Yao, suggesting that they should be prepared to retreat.

Kong Ji, who had long been willing to retreat, listened to the words of a few people, and finally made up his mind to prepare to retreat. At the beginning, the response from the army was just to come to fight soy sauce, because as a clear streamer, he accepted Dong Zhuo’s official position instead. Those who don't mean one or two will be unreasonable among scholars. Now I got my name, and I haven't been damaged. It's just that I have lost some soldiers and horses. Don't care about this. If you continue to fight and make Dong Zhuo anxious, it will be too worthwhile to have a life and death with everyone. However, the rear army’s grain and grass cannot be notified to return, because after all, I don’t know that I will stay in Luoyang for a few days. If the grain and grass are used up by that time, they don’t need to retreat by themselves, the soldiers will all run away.

Thinking of this, Kong Yu stood up and said: "Well, since everyone said so, then our army can quietly prepare to retreat. As for the matter mentioned by the nephew, when the retreat is guaranteed, it is up to The old man should contact the princes of a few roads. When the time comes, let everyone lead the soldiers for a while. However, the nephew needs to prepare some items, and then go to visit those princes with the old man."

Huangfu Chaobo nodded quickly and promised. Gifts are not difficult to handle. They are nothing more than BMW, wine, tea, and treasures. Huangfu Chaobo will contact Jia Jing when he is ready to arrange for players to send a batch. When he was about to say goodbye, Huangfu Chaobo suddenly remembered something he had discovered in these several battles. Although the cost of guard-level soldiers and horses was nearly one to two times higher than that of intermediate and high-level soldiers and horses, but The losses in the battle were more than half lower, especially the Xiliang cavalry in the hands of Huangfu Chaobo. Without the leadership, the cavalry skills could not be used, and the ratio of battle damage to the intermediate soldiers was almost reached. The ratio of 1 to 10.

Thinking of this, Huangfu Chaobo said to Kong Ni that he wanted to recruit around 20,000 soldiers and horses of the guard level in Runan. Kong Ni agreed without even thinking about it. For recruiting at the current stage, it is only necessary that the total force does not exceed 10% of the total population, and for every additional number of troops recruited, the city security points will drop by a certain number. For a big state like Yuzhou, recruiting tens of thousands of soldiers has no effect at all, and the population of ordinary people under the rule will not change. Therefore, Kong Ni readily issued a warrant to ask Huangfu Chaobo to arrange for people to go to the military camp in Runan to recruit troops. Not only that, but also gave the province the other 4% of the tax except 1% ​​of the imperial court. Up.

After giving the recruiting warrant to Huangfu Chaobo, Kong Yu thought for a while, and gave him 200,000 each of the money and grain that he had promised to Huangfu Chaobo at the banquet. Since he is going to Runan to recruit troops, let's drop in. Bring them all back. According to Huangfu Chaobo’s idea, 20,000 guard-level soldiers and horses, cavalry, longbow, sword shield and pikemen each account for 5,000. Based on the current recruitment cost, it will cost him nearly 900,000 guan, don’t underestimate it. This 4% is nearly 40,000.
