In this short period of time, it is impossible for Yuan Shao to obtain other supplies, let alone other support.
Even if it can be transferred from other places, it will be ten days later.
Yuan Shao's subordinates have an army of [-], and the morale of these troops is already very low. If they hear that there is no food, why would they want to fight?
Gao Lan knew this very well in his heart, it is already good for Yuan Shao to be able to protect himself now.
As for the struggle for hegemony in the Central Plains, it is already impossible to unify the Central Plains in the past four or five years.
But what Yuan Shao can do now is to recharge his batteries and wait for the opportunity.
Gao Lan was already dissatisfied with Yuan Shao, and then he said to the army he led: "Wuchao is our army's food base, it has been destroyed now, and we have no possibility of continuing to fight! The white horse responsible for transportation has also been taken, and we may not be able to resist for a few days."
After hearing Gao Lan's words, everyone was shocked.
They don't know the importance of Wuchao, but they know the importance of food.
If this continues, they will starve to death before they set off to fight.
Among the various reasons that are indispensable for marching and fighting, food and grass are very important.
Troops and horses go ahead without food and forage!
Even if there are many people and strong soldiers and horses, but if there is no food to join, what can we use to win the battle?
The morale of the soldiers is not high at all, and with the pressure of public opinion, how can these people have the mind to fight now?
"I don't want to starve to death!"
"General Gao, think of a way!"
"How on earth are we going to survive?"
Gao Lan said: "The reason why the current situation has become like this is entirely because of the leadership of Yuan Shao, who has no general talent!"
"Ju Yi, Tian Feng, General Zhang Tai, and Ju Shou Military Adviser, they are all the pillars of the world!"
"But what did Yuan Shao do? He killed Ju Yi, put Tian Feng and General Zhang Tai under house arrest, does he have the talent to be a general?"
What Gao Lan said was very reasonable. After these words, everyone was basically convinced by him.
Compared with Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, the gap I saw is very large.
It is very simple to defeat Cao Cao.
But up to today's point, it's all because of Yuan Shao's self-willedness.
Gao Lan then continued: "At this time, Yuan Shao's power is gone. Instead of following Yuan Shao, we might as well rescue that General Tai, and then go to the more enlightened Prime Minister Cao together!"
After Gao Lan finished speaking, all the soldiers felt the same in their hearts.
Continuing to follow Yuan Shao now is a dead end.
However, if he defected to Cao Cao, he might be able to survive.
Yuan Shao's leadership methods are indeed not very good.
When he is going smoothly, everyone may follow him.
But now he is not going well, so all the soldiers turned against him.
So Gao Lan led them to attack the place where Zhang Tai was held.
Rescue that Zhang Tai now, and then discuss the remaining countermeasures.
Zhang Tai had already judged Yuan Shao's situation in his heart.
But what he didn't expect was that Yuan Shao would lose so quickly.
After learning about the current situation, Zhang Tai was also a little bit haggard.
"General! It's Yuan Shaoxian who is against you now, so why are you talking about loyalty to him?"
"Now Yuan Shao doesn't have much momentum, why bother to follow him? According to your talent, if you go to Prime Minister Cao Cao, you will definitely do something, why don't we go to Prime Minister Cao together!"
Zhang Tai and Gao Lan had the same idea.
Since Yuan Shao was unkind first, don't blame Zhang Tai for being unrighteous.
Compared with Yuan Shao, Cao Cao is like the sky and the earth.
Cao Cao has written to the emperor many times, requesting the promulgation of the decree of seeking talents.
It is eclectic to drop talents.
With such a heart and insight, no matter how you look at it, you are a person you can follow.
Not only that, Cao Cao's son Cao Ang made them respect him even more.
Therefore, after taking refuge in the Cao family now, it will definitely make a difference.
Zhang Tai and Gao Lan led more than 1 subordinates to surrender to Cao Cao, which made Cao Cao very happy.
"May I ask who is Zhang Tai?"
Hearing this, Zhang Tai knelt down and said, "This will be the crime!"
Seeing this, Cao Cao hurried forward to help Zhang Tai up.
"General Zhang is a great general, with flexible command and changeable use of troops, which gave me a headache for a while, hahahaha! But the two generals abandoned the dark and turned to the bright, and my court recommended two of them. From then on, the two are the pillars of the court. !"
Cao Cao was very polite, and he didn't discriminate against them because they were surrendered generals.
This moved Zhang Tai and Gao Lan very much, and they completely let go of their hearts.
Cao Cao paid special attention to Zhang Tai.
This person is very talented, and his talent is not inferior to Zhang Liao and Yu Jin.
Even Cao Ang personally wrote a letter to persuade him to surrender.
Such a person must have his own uniqueness.
That Gao Lan is somewhat lacking in comparison, but he is also a rare general.
Cao Cao didn't feel that there were many soldiers around him, let alone that there were many talents around him.
With such a powerful person, Cao Cao hopes to have as many people as possible.
