Chapter 1640 Southern Han sends troops
Chapter 1638: Southern Han sends troops
Just when he saw that the battle loss ratio was 5.7:1, Qin Hao thought he could only get the SS score. After all, the SSS score must reach at least 10:1.
However, Li Jing did not expect that various operations in this battle and the difficulty of winning this battle eventually made the score reach the SSS level and obtained the Golden Summoning Card.
To be honest, Li Jing won the Battle of the North Sea without any ease, and there was even some luck in it.
Li Jing initially had only 40,000 troops. Facing an enemy of up to 160,000 and was surrounded by all sides, it was impossible to turn defeat into victory.
But Li Jing broke everyone''s perception. He took the initiative to attack even though he was at a disadvantage. He defeated them one by one while the enemy had not yet joined forces, turning the disadvantage into advantages bit by bit.
In this process, Li Jing had a more sensible operation: to recruit the enemy troops in the near future. As a result, the army under his command was fighting more and more.
In ancient wars, if the losses of soldiers were too large, it would be understandable to recruit prisoners to supplement the losses in war, but no one would do this during the war.
The loyalty of the prisoners is not guaranteed by law. If one is not handled well, he may even rebel in the face of war.
Li Jing''s courage to recruit Liangshan prisoners of war was because he had many Liangshan leaders led by Chao Gai. They had a very high prestige in the Liangshan army and could allow Liangshan prisoners of war to return as soon as possible.
It is precisely because of the joining of the Liangshan Captive Army that made up for the lack of military strength of the Qin army that Li Jing achieved the final victory.
Let’s put it this way, the Battle of the North Sea is an unreplicable victory. If any error occurs in any link, Li Jing may not be the final winner.
This war is basically Li Jing''s personal show. Huang Feihu and his son, Liangshan Five Tiger Generals, Jintai Taishi Ci and other generals all act as green leaves to highlight Li Jing''s strength alone.
Even Ran Min, the super **** general, died heroically when fighting against the four great war gods, could only become an embellishment in this battle, and could not hide Li Jing''s light at all.
Li Jing, become a **** in one battle.
Of course, Li Jing did not make any mistakes. Qin Hao didn''t care about other minor mistakes, but the biggest mistake was the last. Just for the nearly ten thousand escaped naval troops, Li Jing actually exposed the existence of the catapult ship.
Qin Hao was originally planning to keep such a powerful weapon as a water battle in the future and take it out to attack the southern naval army when crossing the Yangtze River, but he did not expect it to be exposed so early.
The exposure of the catapult ship is conceivable, and the princes in the south are destined to vigorously develop and imitate it.
Although the manufacturing of a catapult ship is quite difficult, there are many experienced shipbuilders in the south, so it may not be impossible to imitate it. By then, the Qin navy will lose a magic weapon to win.
However, considering that Li Jing was also completely eliminating Wang Mang and Zhu Tianpeng for the sake of one and all, Qin Hao would not blame Li Jing for this.
"After drafting an order, Li Jing defeated the Northern Han United Army, greatly boosted the morale of our army, and specially appointed him as the Marquis of Beihai and General Zhenbei." Qin Hao issued an order.
Although the Hebei Battle was not over and the three major battlefields were at a deadlock, Li Jing emerged and changed the situation in Qingzhou with his own strength. Such great contributions were more than enough to be named a marquis.
Of course, this is just a preliminary enthronement of Li Jing. Now he is rushing towards Julu and becoming the last straw that crushed Julu''s battlefield.
Once the Julu battlefield is defeated, it will definitely affect the whole body. At that time, the three major battlefields will fall all over the line, and the overall situation in Hebei will be decided.
Li Jing has become the key to the Hebei Battle, so after the war is over, he will definitely usher in a new enthronement.
"Lord, the situation in Qingbei is now determined, and our army''s advantage in Hebei has increased. Now the Southern Han Dynasty is probably unable to sit still." Zhuge Liang stood up and said, "Liang believes that the commanders of the three prefectures of the State should be warned against the sudden invasion of the Southern Han princes."
The Southern Han was established to curb the expansion of the Qin army. The reason why he did not send troops to aid the Northern Han before was because he wanted both the Qin army and the Northern Han to suffer losses.
The Qing Dynasty also has the same idea.
But the development of things exceeded expectations. Li Jing''s sudden emergence made the Qin army not only not lose bother with the Northern Han, but was about to form a crushing momentum in Hebei. Therefore, it is conceivable how the Southern Han will react after knowing the outcome of the Battle of the North Sea.
“What the advisor Kong Ming said makes sense.”
Qin Hao nodded, thought for a while, and said, "If the Southern Han really came, Sizhou and Bingzhou would be fine, but Jingbei would probably be in some trouble."
Sizhou has a dangerous pass to occupy a good location, and Bingzhou is close to Hebei to facilitate transporting reinforcements, while Jingbei borders the three forces of Shu, Chu and Tang. Once the three kingdoms invade at the same time, the local defenders alone will definitely not be able to do so.
"Immediately, the governor of Jingzhou, Qin Zheng, was ordered to prepare for the battle to prevent the sudden attack of the Southern Han Dynasty.
In addition, let Qin Yong of Sizhou be ready to support Jingzhou at any time. If Jingzhou lacks troops, be sure to send reinforcements as quickly as possible. "Qin Hao ordered in a deep voice.
Although Jingzhou was Qin Hao''s place of origin, as the Qin army''s strategic center of gravity moved northward, the forces left behind in Jingbei were less and less. On the contrary, the hostile forces around were getting stronger and stronger.
What are the forces around Jingzhou? Huang Zu of Jiangxia, Liu Xiu of Jingnan, Liu Ji of Bashu, and Li Shimin of Hanzhong. Except for Huang Zu, the other three parties were eyeing Jingzhou and wanted to swallow Jingbei''s fertile land in one go.
Jingzhou is a place of four battles, easy to attack and difficult to defend, but there are only a few strong cities for defense, but there are packs of wolves around it, so it is naturally extremely difficult to defend.
Just as Qin Hao was discussing the safety of Jingzhou with everyone, the news that Li Jing defeated Wang Mang and unify Qingbei swept across the world like a hurricane.
Most people in the world were surprised by Li Jing''s command ability. With enemies on all sides, he could win 160,000 almost perfectly with an army of 40,000. Even if his grandson was resurrected, it would be like this? At the same time, he lamented that the Qin army had another invincible commander who was comparable to Bai Qi.
The princes naturally thought more than the people, especially the princes in the Southern Han Dynasty, all of whom were shocked and angry.
Chengdu, after receiving the news, Liu Ji immediately called his ministers to discuss.
At the meeting, Liu Ji sat in the main seat with a gloomy face, and Chen Ping stood up and said, "Everyone, Li Jing defeated Wang Mang with a 40,000 army. Now the situation in Qingbei has been settled, and Li Jing will lead the army to counterattack Jizhou next time. It is conceivable that the Qin army''s advantage in Hebei will be further expanded."
Liu Ji sighed and said, "I thought the Qin army would fight against the Northern Han to lose both sides, but I didn''t expect that this would happen in the end. Military advisor, what do you think should you do now?"
"Lord, if our army does not send troops to support us, Liu Che, Yuan Shao, Han Xin and others will definitely not be opponents, and the Qin army may really have to completely occupy Hebei."
Chen Ping''s eyes were full of solemn expressions, and he said in a deep voice: "We must send troops to attack Qin."
