Xiang Yu fights the Three Kingdoms

Han Sui is very panicked now, all the outer city of Yunwu City has been lost, facing Sun Jian's attack to the north, and Dong Zhuo's attack to the south, but he is not so flustered now, because he knows that he still has a battle to occupy the inner city As long as he doesn't make some fatal mistakes, then the situation will have a turning point. Now he has gradually calmed down and began to try to analyze what he should do next.

He has now judged that there is a problem with his Xiliang cavalry, and it is probably out of his control. In other words, the advantages of these Xiliang cavalry are obviously unable to be brought into play. This is a big contradiction, and no matter how you say it, you have to make a choice.

Now that very important Xiliang cavalry has temporarily lost control, but there may not be any chance of recovery. If I give up resistance at this time, I will definitely fail completely, but if I can stick to it for a while, Maybe those Xiliang cavalry will choose to help themselves again. After all, their current situation is actually very embarrassing. Such a large Xiliang cavalry team needs to consume a lot of food and logistics supplies. How to solve these food supply problems?

Either surrender Dong Zhuo directly, or try to plunder Dong Zhuo's food, or help him repel Dong Zhuo, and then get food from himself, all of these possibilities exist.

But Han Sui judged that this Xiliang cavalry was likely to be rebelled by some generals inside, not necessarily all the soldiers rebelled against him. If this is the case, it means that their internal conflicts are also very serious. It is very difficult to reach a complete agreement. Given their character, the possibility of them directly surrendering to Dong Zhuo is very small, because if they surrender Dong Zhuo, what benefits can they get?
As a rebel who has fought with him for a long time, even if he surrenders, he is still a rebel. It is impossible to write off the crimes he committed before. Maybe he will still lose his life after surrendering to Dong Zhuo. Han Sui believes that these generals are not They may not even understand this point, so they are more likely to choose to plunder Dong Zhuo’s food, or choose to help themselves attack Dong Zhuo in the end. Of course, the two are actually equivalent. The process of attacking Dong Zhuo You can also plunder Dong Zhuo's food and grass.

It's just that the surrounding area has been completely blocked now, and he has no way to send spies out of the city to find out the specific situation. The only possibility is to send carrier pigeons to try to communicate with those Xiliang cavalrymen and try to persuade them.

But doing so also has certain risks. First of all, Dong Zhuo has completely blocked the outer city at this time, and the pigeons he sent may not be able to fly through the blockade safely. Some of Dong Zhuo's crossbowmen are still quite capable. Yes, Han Sui also had to admit this.

If Dong Zhuo had intercepted his carrier pigeon, then Dong Zhuo would have known about the mutiny of the Xiliang cavalry. Now Dong Zhuo did not dare to gather all his troops to attack the inner city easily because he still cared about those Xiliang cavalry Stabbed his ass in the back, but once he knew that these Xiliang cavalry were no longer under his control, he might choose to attack the whole army directly. Siege weapons are still very threatening to the inner city.

After repeated consideration, the cautious Han Sui still chose a more conservative plan. He did not take the risk of sending pigeons to transmit information, but put all his energy on the defense of the inner city.

Han Sui personally led his generals to inspect the defensive positions in the inner city, but the real problem was not the strength of the inner city fortifications, but that they might not have enough food and grass left, so Han Sui began to He obviously overestimated the adequacy of grain and grass in the city. In fact, he cannot be completely blamed for this. What he did not expect was that a series of rat and insect infestations appeared in the city. Because they were not discovered in time, the grain in several granaries They have all been eaten up, and even if there are any leftovers, they are just some scraps.

After learning the news, Han Sui seemed very angry, but he didn't know who to turn the fire on. He immediately ordered to gather all the remaining grain in the city, calculate it, and implement a strict grain quota.

There is no way to do this. A large part of the food from the common people in the city was also robbed. Of course, Han Sui still has some conscience, and set up a few places for the common people to drink porridge, which can be regarded as the most basic guarantee for the common people. He calculated all the food reserves to meet his survival needs. If they were strictly distributed and there were no other accidents, he should be able to last for about a month.

One month is not long, and it is not short. After knowing this, Han Sui's hanging heart finally relaxed a little. No matter what happens, life or death must be decided within this month.

After solving the problem of food and grass, Han Sui had to find a way to strengthen some relatively weak defense points in the city, but at the same time he had to do some empathy, imagine if he was Sun Jian or Dong Zhuo, what would he choose? What kind of method does the local government use to attack itself, not to mention that this way of empathy really provided Han Sui with some ideas.

Under the guidance of this idea, he found a few positions that he thought were most likely to become defensive loopholes at some point in the future, but his current troops in the city had already suffered a great loss, and there was no way to draw out too many soldiers to attack again. It's time to carry out additional defense, so he can only choose the most important ones from these places for the highest priority additional defensive deployment.

If more troops can be drawn later, then go to reinforce and deploy defenses in the remaining potentially dangerous areas. Of course, Han Sui also thought about withdrawing some soldiers from places that are not so important for the time being. Come to these places, but Sun Jian and Dong Zhuo's attack has been going on all the time, and he is not given any chance to breathe at all. It seems that it is difficult for him to find out which places are not so important. If soldiers are withdrawn or downsized, the consequences are unpredictable.
