570. Face the test
Everyone was amused by Zhou Cang's words, so Guan Hai began to be nonsense. He said, "I heard that Cao Mengde was very brave after taking this recipe. Otherwise, how could he surrender alone if there were so many beauties in the Cao family?"
"Hahaha, Old Zhou is right, come on, drink!" Zhou Cang laughed, and he glanced at Li Hugo: "Why don't brother drink?"
"Now the Allied forces are not united in one's moral integrity. I'm afraid that in the past, I will be defeated... You see, no one in Sishui Pass wants to be a vanguard army. You must know that solving the problem is very consuming, and no one wants to be a vanguard army and sacrifice their own forces." Li Hugo said, he was already planning for the next plan.
Because he knew that the princes would be defeated in the fight against the thief, he had to do something.
Although these eighteen princes were not mobs, they all left the base for expedition. Compared to whether they could defeat Dong Zhuo, the princes were more concerned about whether they led their army out to join the alliance and whether their base would be in danger. Therefore, 80% of their powerful generals and elite soldiers were used by them to stay in the city. Even if they failed to attack Dong Zhuo, they would have to go back to their own houses.
Apart from Sun Jian, there were no top-notch generals in the coalition. Although Sun Jian was stubborn, he also brought all his mighty generals to the scene. In this regard, Sun Jian was much more powerful than other princes.
Because of the lack of soldiers, let alone facing the invincible Lu Bu, Hua Xiong alone would have hurt the eighteen princes. If it weren't for Li Yuguo's previous battle, then Pan Feng's battle would have really made the eighteen princes laugh.
What's even more terrible is that there are no decent strategists among the eighteen princes. If you want to talk about the strategic responsibility of the coalition forces, then Cao Mengde will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one who will be the one
On the other hand, Li Ru, a counselor of Dong Zhuo, is much more experienced than Cao Mengde. He not only provides advice for Dong Zhuo in military use strategies, but also plays a crucial role in many directional decisions. The most heartbreaking thing is that many of Cao Mengde's good suggestions were not adopted by Yuan Shao. Just imagine, there is a gap in the strength of the think tanks of both sides, and Yuan Shao, as the leader of the alliance, cannot observe Yayan, so how could he not fail?
The eighteen princes jointly elected Yuan Shao as the leader of the alliance, but this leader of the Yuan Dynasty had no ability to lead the coalition forces at all, so the later failure became a matter of course. The reason why the princes elected Yuan Shao as the leader was that the Yuan Shao family had four generations and three masters, and their disciples and former officials were spread all over the world.
In short, the reason why Yuan Shao became the leader was not because of his own ability, but because of his prominent family background. In the later decisive battle between Yuan Shao and Cao Mengde, Cao Mengde also accurately pointed out Yuan Shao's weakness of not having leadership ability. It was precisely because of this reason that Cao Mengde was able to defeat Yuan Shao and won the battle of Guandu.
