Chapter 40 Chase!

In fact, it is not difficult to see the current situation of the battle with Guo Jia and Ju Su, and they each have some considerations about the future evolution of the situation.

But the two of them thought that the princes of Guandong returned without success, and the great cause of fighting against the thieves ended in a slight manner. After that, Dong Zhuo's army would withdraw to Luoyang and continue to be arrogant and prosperous in Luoyang.

This was a relatively reasonable result that the two expected, but now Pan Feng said that Dong Zhuo was not in Luoyang.

If he is not in Luoyang, where will he go?

"How can Zihe be sure that Dong Zhuo is not in Luoyang?" Guo Jia had already sat upright without realizing it, not caring about testing Han Fu's bottom line.

Even Ju Su was standing by, he looked at him with a scruple, let alone Han Fu and others.

In this Jizhou camp, Pan Feng unknowingly used his strategy and courage to gain everyone's trust. Even a stunning and talented person like Guo Jia and Ju Su did not think that he was a reckless man's words after hearing Pan Feng's words, but thought about why he said this!

This change is subtle and makes no one realize it.

Hearing Guo Jia's words, Pan Feng smiled confidently.

He dared to say that Dong Zhuo was not in Luoyang, which was naturally borrowing the knowledge of later generations. Of course, what is more important is his reasonable deduction based on the current situation of the war.

Just as Pan Feng said before, money and food are definitely what Dong Zhuo is most worried about now.

The Luoyang treasury has been empty for more than a day or two. These hundreds of thousands of troops need to be supported by Dong Zhuo. The money he plundered in the past is not enough to support such a huge consumption, so he must take action to obtain enough money and food to support the army.

The best way to gather huge amounts of money in a short period of time is to rob.

Raid Luoyang and the surrounding areas!

But once the army is allowed to plunder Luoyang, not to mention how the local people will resist, and there are princes and ministers, they will definitely not allow Dong Zhuo to do this, so there must be something bigger to attract their attention.

That is moving the capital!

No matter which dynasty is in, the capital symbolizes the authority and glory of a dynasty. Generally speaking, no king will move the capital easily, and even the ministers will not think about moving the capital.

Moving the capital will not only affect all forces entrenched in the capital, but also a tragedy for the dynasty.

Therefore, once Dong Zhuo threw out the heavy news of moving the capital, not many people would pay attention to the robbery.

Of course, Dong Zhuo moved the capital not only to facilitate his robbery of Luoyang, but his move has deeper considerations.

Luoyang is located in the core of the Central Plains and is surrounded by Jingzhou, Yuzhou, Yanzhou, Jizhou and Bingzhou from all aspects. If it is stationed in Luoyang for a long time, the military threats of various prefectures and counties against Luoyang will always be hung on Dong Zhuo's head.

This is different in Chang'an.

Chang'an is closer to Liangzhou than Luoyang. Liangzhou, as Dong Zhuo's base camp, is the fundamental existence of Dong Zhuo's establishment. Getting close to Liangzhou can greatly enhance Dong Zhuo's dominance.

Moreover, at this time, Liangzhou was a little unstable because of Han Sui and Ma Teng's existence, and Dong Zhuo also needed to shrink his troops to deal with hidden dangers in the rear.

Furthermore, there are many passes on the road from Luoyang to Chang'an. The Kwantung Alliance would need to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to fight from Luoyang to Chang'an. These consumption alone would be enough to drag down most of the princes.

The above are just a series of benefits brought by Dong Zhuo's move to Chang'an. For Dong Zhuo, the benefits far outweigh the disadvantages. However, for the Han Dynasty, this almost completely lost the dignity of the royal family, and the Han Dynasty suddenly reached the brink of decline.

Guo Jia and Ju Su didn't understand these things, or they didn't dare to think about them, but Pan Feng knew that this was the fact!

Looking at Guo Jia and others' confusing eyes, Pan Feng expressed his thoughts one by one. When Dong Zhuo was about to move the capital, Han Fu suddenly stood up and exclaimed, "How dare he do it?" Guo Jia and Ju Su were thinking, obviously thinking about the feasibility of Dong Zhuo doing this.

After a while, Guo Jia looked at Pan Feng like a monster. After weighing the pros and cons, he found that Dong Zhuo was very likely to do so!

Because whether it is moving the capital or looting, it will only benefit Dong Zhuo and the Xiliang army but not harm. On the contrary, the blow to the Han Dynasty is almost devastating. It is hard to say whether the Kanto Alliance Army, which is now formed, will become a family of separatist families!

Once the world is in chaos, who still has time to take care of Dong Zhuo?

"I didn't expect that Zihe is not only good at martial arts, but also has such a thorough analysis of the overall situation. I admire him!" Guo Jia bowed to Pan Feng.

This was the first time he had paid a serious salute since he met Pan Feng, which showed that he had already felt some respect for Pan Feng.

The same tribute was Ju Su on the side. He felt more intense than Guo Jia and he had already admired Pan Feng a little.

"Jushu worships you, and you get 1,000 worship points."

Sure enough, just after Ju Su finished the ceremony, Pan Feng received the worship value he provided.

However, Ju Su actually only had a thousand worship points, which Pan Feng did not expect.

Logically speaking, it is much more difficult to make literati worship and compete with military generals. The worship value obtained should be ten times, and it can be accepted even if it is not doubled!

But these are the values ​​set by the system after all, and Pan Feng can't change anything.

"Zihe, since Dong Zhuo has plans to move the capital, let us tell Yuan Shao now that he will march into Luoyang and must rescue the emperor and ministers." Han Fu said.

Han Fu is still a little naive.

Ju Su smiled bitterly and advised: "Lord, if Yuan Shao wanted to pursue Dong Zhuo, he would not have stationed troops here. Now there are only 10,000 people in Sishui Pass and Hulao Pass. As long as our coalition starts, we can destroy it at any time. The reason why we are still stationed here is that Yuan Shao doesn't want to pursue it."

Yuan Shao doesn’t want it! Or most princes don’t want it!

This is the key factor that the coalition forces have been unable to achieve success. It is precisely because they understand this that Dong Zhuo followed Li Ru's advice and withdrew from Sishui Pass!

After hearing Ju Su's words, Han Fu was still a little unwilling to accept it.

"With Gong and I'm sorry, how should we do things?"

Ju Su glanced at Pan Feng and then said, "If the lord wants to earn a reputation, he must enter Luoyang after Sun Jian conquered Sishui Pass. If he can save some people, he can also prove to the people of the world that the lord has done his best. Even if he cannot, he will not be better than those who stayed in the same place to drink and have fun."

"If the lord feels that the credit has been enough, it's still okay to wait here. With the military achievements we achieved in Jizhou Army before, the lord is already more responsible than most people."

Ju Su's words meant that he supported the rapid advance to Luoyang and even pursued Dong Zhuo.

It’s just that Han Fu is a cowardly person, and he is not sure that Han Fu has the courage to go deep into the army.

Indeed, Han Fu heard what he meant after hearing Ju Su's suggestion, which also made him a little difficult. In the past, the army was dispatched together, so he was not afraid of Dong Zhuo. However, the total strength of the Jizhou camp is less than 30,000, while Dong Zhuo has an army of more than 100,000. If he pursues the troops under such a huge gap, he will likely be wiped out!

"This..." Han Fu hesitated a little, but when he touched Pan Feng's gaze, the hesitation in his heart suddenly turned into firmness.

I have a son and I am by my side, why are you afraid of mere Dong Zhuo?

"Chasing!" Han Fu's voice suddenly rose up, "Although Dong Thief is strong, my Jizhou man is not a weak person!"

"Zihe, I will ask you for your troops at that time!"

Han Fu's determination was a little beyond Pan Feng's expectations, but he still replied with a salute.

"The last general will receive the order!"

"Okay! Everyone here has listened. Once the troops are mobilized, you must obey Zihe's command. This pursuit is very dangerous. If you ruin a big deal because you don't obey the order, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Han Fu's face appeared with a coldness that had never been seen before. Obviously, this pursuit had caused a huge psychological burden to his cowardly heart. If Pan Feng had not been there, he would probably not have thought about chasing Dong Zhuo.

Guo Jia saw Han Fu's performance. For the first time, he discovered the qualities that the hero should have in Han Fu.

Dare to take risks!

No war is bound to win. Once the battle starts, the right time, place, people and every item can affect the final situation. The hero is 50% sure and dares to give it a try, while the mediocre leader is 90% sure and still shrinks.

Guo Jiashan makes strange plans, and the risks of strange plans are often greater. If he is under the command of the mediocre leader, Guo Jia cannot play 30% of the ten costs. Only under the command of the hero can Guo Jia open his hands and feet to play freely. Han Fu actually showed a hint of heroic plans this time, which has made Guo Jia's favorable feelings for Han Fu somewhat rebound.
