Chapter 376 A small battle before the decisive battle
Chapter 375: A small battle before the decisive battle
September 3, the second year of Zhongping.
Sili, who had been calm for less than a month, once again caused a stir.
The time for Qin Wen and Zhang Jiao to make an appointment has come, and both sides have already prepared. Sixty thousand soldiers will fight to the decisive battle in an open area fifty miles away from Luoyang City.
Luoyang, schoolyard.
Qin Wen stood on the stage with a serious look on his face, his eyes constantly scanning the 30,000 soldiers who were about to set out in the stage.
"I have reported to my father, 15,000 cavalry, 5,000 swords and shields, 5,000 spearmen, and 5,000 crossbowmen, and a total of 30,000 troops to go to the expedition have all been prepared."
Qin Hao, who was the first in the audience, stood up to report, while Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Sun Jian and others were all standing behind him.
Facing a cavalry madman like Xiang Yu, the cavalry is naturally the main force, but they cannot arrange all cavalry, which will become a tough battle without technical content.
Qin Hao chose four types of troops, and the force ratio was 3:1:1:1. In this way, even if he didn''t know the opponent''s force matching, he could respond flexibly to the greatest extent.
Looking at the neat and silent team below, although many of them were not their subordinates, Qin Wen nodded with satisfaction, then pulled out Taia from his waist and shouted: "The whole army set off."
“It will win, it will win…”
Thirty thousand troops embarked on the journey with the farewell of millions of people in Luoyang. What awaited them ahead were the Yellow Turban''s most elite army, the bravest generals and the most powerful commander.
The three points Zhang Liang analyzed before the war were completely correct. Qin Wen took the initiative because of this, but this was not his original intention.
As a general with extremely rich experience in defending the city, Qin Wen naturally knew that it was very unwise to fight with the Yellow Turbans in Sili, but he did not want to give up.
Based on the mass base of the Han Dynasty in Sili, if a people''s war was fought, Qin Wen would be confident that he would destroy the 700,000 Yellow Turban Army.
Of course, the price of doing so is that Sili will definitely be directly crippled, from the most prosperous place in the Han Dynasty to the most broken deadly place.
But when Qin Wen received the Chang''an court, and after symbolic resistance, he gave up Sili, set up a defense line at Hangu Pass, and blocked the Yellow Turban, he was shocked.
Who influenced Liu Hong? Otherwise, how could Liu Hong give such a bold order?
For the current great man, giving up Sili is the most correct decision. After all, Sili is the only area among the thirteen states that does not buy the Yellow Turban tent, and most people hate the Yellow Turban that brings them suffering because of the war.
Now all the things that the man should have moved have been moved away, so even if he throws Sili to the Yellow Turban, it will not encourage the Yellow Turban to have much strength. Instead, it will make Sili a burden for the Yellow Turban and lengthen the Yellow Turban''s grain and supplies line.
So this decision was indeed correct, but Qin Wen would not believe it anyway. This decision was made by Liu Hong.
Liu Hong in Qin Wen’s heart was also a tyrant monarch.
If it weren''t for his indulgence and laissez-faire, the situation of the Han Dynasty would never have been so decayed.
So how could this kind of magical stroke be written by Liu Hong?
But since it is not Liu Hong, who influenced Liu Hong?
Qin Wen could never have thought of it. Although Qin Hao knew it was Guiguzi, he didn''t know how Guiguzi did it.
Have Liu Hong also become the maintainer of your plan? Teacher, how did you do this without any power? Qin Hao stared at the south and said in his heart.
Qin Hao must not lose in this battle, otherwise he will be very passive next, but without knowing Xiang Yu''s specific military deployment, Qin Hao is not sure of winning.
Under the arrangement of the Xuanhuang and Dongfang Sheng, Shi Lan has successfully returned to Xiang Yu without any flaws. However, Shi Lan has not yet had any contact with such extremely random intelligence to allocate troops.
Just as Qin Hao was thinking about it, the 30,000 Han troops had arrived at the battlefield, and the 30,000 Yellow Turban troops arrived before the Han troops. In general, there is a routine before the war begins, and the head coaches of both sides always meet.
Just like last time, Zhang Jiao slowly came to the front of the formation under the **** of Xiang Yu and other generals.
The difference is that Xiang Yu was wearing a mask last time, but this time it was real.
Qin Wen was a little confused when he saw this. He knew that such a meeting was meaningless at all, so it would be better to start a war directly.
But Zhang Jiao has come. If he doesn’t go, wouldn’t he lose to the Yellow Turban in terms of momentum?
Besides, Qin Wen suffered from Zhang Jiao’s losses during the last meeting.
Qin Hao saw his father''s thoughts, so he rode his horse to Qin Wen and said, "Father, let''s protect you."
Qin Wen nodded when he heard this, and Qin Hao immediately said, "Lu Bu, Ran Min, Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, Xu Chu, you five follow me to protect the safety of your father."
"No." The five people immediately stood up and responded.
This time, except for Xu Chu, the four of them were famous generals. The sudden appearance of such a strange face also surprised the Han army soldiers and couldn''t help but look at Xu Chu carefully.
They also want to see who they are, who are qualified to be on par with these four fierce generals.
After detecting everyone''s gaze, Xu Chu proudly raised his chest, held his new weapon, and followed him on his horse.
Xu Chu, who had the peak basic force of 99, took the initiative to apply, so Qin Hao naturally had to equip him with weapons and horses.
Getting allegiance from Xu Chu and Yu Jin allowed Qin Hao to get two mount cards and one magic weapon card, so he used one for Xu Chu, and finally got the purple gold hammer and the good horse black flame.
Currently, Xu Chu, who has a basic force of 96, directly replaced his cannon after obtaining new equipment, and his basic force reached 98.
Those who questioned Xu Chu closed their mouths tacitly after seeing the sledgehammer in his hand.
Those who can hold such weapons are obviously impossible to be weak, and the Yanmen Army has gained another peerless general.
The princes present thought with great jealousy.
The Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Guangyi brothers standing behind Yuan Shu were not on Xu Chu, but on Qin Hao, the first person, with even more glitter in their eyes, and they didn''t know what they were thinking.
Seeing Qin Wen coming, Zhang Jiao smiled and bowed, "General Qin, long time no see."
Qin Wen saw this as politely return the gift, and when Xu Chu saw his brother who was guarding Zhang Jiao''s right, he immediately threw a questioning look at him, and Xu Dingze ignored Xu Chu with a calm look on his face.
The two brothers'' eyes clashed without any impact on the second clash between Qin Wen and Zhang Jiao.
With the lesson from last time, Qin Wen was very cautious this time and did not give Zhang Jiao any chance. Instead, he dug a lot of pits for Zhang Jiao, but the cunning Zhang Jiao naturally would not be fooled.
In Qin Hao''s opinion, the language confrontation between the two sides is no less than a big battle, and you won''t get tired of watching it any number of times.
However, this time Qin Hao had to turn his attention to the other side, because except for the four old faces of Zhang Jiao, Xiang Yu, Dian Wei, Xu Ding, the others on the other side were all new faces.
