Chapter 2240: The envoy from Nanyang, the battle between Fengling begins
"Ma Chao is different from Yan Xing. Yan Xing has no ambitions that shouldn''t have, but Ma Chao has."
Ying Hao couldn''t help but recall Ma Chao''s vibrant but rebellious handsome face, and couldn''t help but smile: "Ma Chao is a fierce horse. If he rode on him anxiously before being completely tamed, it would backfire his master.
Yang Guang is the best horse trainer to tame Ma Chao. He will let Ma Chao know that his so-called pride is not worth mentioning at all. In the end, he put down all his pride and took the initiative to surrender to me. Only by surrendering to me can he avenge his father. ”
The fierce generals of the Qin army fought like clouds and rain, not many Ma Chao, not many Ma Chao, not many.
The impact of Ma Chao’s submission on the Qin army was not great, so Ying Hao hoped that Ma Chao could surrender to Qin voluntarily, rather than sending envoys to promise a lot of costs before making Ma Chao surrender.
There is still a big difference between actively surrendering and passive surrendering.
"Okay, Ma Chao''s problem is just a trivial matter, and what is really important is the founding ceremony."
Ying Hao''s face showed a serious look: "The Ministry of Rites reported that the South Ocean south of Jiaozhou had somehow received the news that our Qin Dynasty was about to be founded. More than 20 countries took the initiative to send envoys to congratulate and watch the ceremony."
Ying Hao guessed that why these Nanyang forces were reluctant to come to participate in the founding ceremony of Qin State, probably because of Chu State.
Although Liu Xiu''s Chu State was a younger brother in front of Qin State. Every time he provoked Qin State, he would dare to take action with his brothers such as Shu Tang, but in the eyes of those uncivilized barbarians in the South China Sea, Chu State was simply an invincible existence like a giant.
After Liu Xiu occupied Jiaozhou, Baiyue was in chaos and barbarians were invading outside, so the battle was not stable.
But in the following years, not only was Baiyue completely conquered by Chu State, but the barbarians in the South China Sea were even beaten to doubt their lives.
Many Southeast Asian forces led by Nguyen Phuc Ying were extremely coveted by Jiaozhou''s wealth and wanted to take Jiaozhou for their own possession. Therefore, they all sent troops to Jiaozhou one after another, and even formed a coalition after their defeat.
The State of Chu did not even use the main force, but only dispatched more than 10,000 partial troops, led by generals such as Li Xiucheng and Chen Yucheng, and the Nanyang coalition forces were not at all able to fight back.
Although the State of Chu easily crushed the major forces in Nanyang, it did not take Nanyang in mind and still regarded them as barbarians, the countries in Nanyang were already a little scared.
The second-line army of Chu State fought them and cried and called them mom. If the main force on the front line came, wouldn’t they want to destroy the country?
In order to protect themselves, countries in Southeast Asia joined forces, but found that Chu was not interested in them at all. No matter how they jumped up and down, Chu did not respond at all. He ignored them directly, as if he didn''t care about the ants on the roadside.
Although this was humiliating, it also made Nguyen Phuc Ying and other forces relieved. However, the Chu State could not care about them, but they could not care about Chu State. Therefore, they strengthened the intelligence collection of Chu State and found an even more desperate news.
The huge Chu State in their eyes is just a prince in the Central Plains, not the strongest. The overlord of the Central Plains is named Qin State, which is the real power in the world.
As strong as Chu, he must be cautious when facing Qin. He joined forces with several major powers to send troops, but was defeated.
In short, when Chu faces Qin, it is as vulnerable as they face Chu.
Now that the King of Qin is about to establish the country and become emperor, this has given the opportunity of various major forces in the South China Sea to hold on. If Qin supports them, they will have more confidence in facing the State of Chu, so they sent envoys to attend the founding ceremony with heavy gifts.
"At that time, in addition to the major princes in the country, the surrounding foreign races such as Yuan Man and Nan barbarians, Tubo and Goguryeo, there will be envoys of small countries such as the 24 Western Regions and the 20 Southern Ocean countries. This is a great opportunity to promote the prestige of our Great Qin, so there must be no mistakes in this ceremony. Now there is still one and a half months left before the founding ceremony. The Battle of Guanzhong must end before the ceremony is held.
Several military advisors, do you think Li Jing can successfully take Chang''an within a month and a half? ”
After hearing Ying Hao''s words, Jia Xu, Zhang Liang, Liu Bowen and others met each other, Liu Bowen said, "Now Huo Bing is blocked by Wuzhangyuan. With Huo Bing''s power, if there is 60,000 cavalry in his hand, there will be no suspense to defeat the Tang army.
But now Huo Bing has only more than 30,000 cavalry under his command, and Li Shimin personally sits in Wuzhangyuan. It is probably difficult to fight to the city of Chang''an by this way. ”
In the vision of Liu Bowen and others, Huo Qubing''s surprise troops from the sky were the fastest to fight the army under Chang''an City. However, Huo Qubing''s division of troops weakened the combat effectiveness of the entire army, and it is not certain whether he can win firmly now.
"Yiguan is temporarily built at any time, but after all, it is a good place. It is not difficult for Li Jing to break it, but it still takes time. Tongguan and Hanzhong are both feinted attacks, and the only breakthrough is Fenglingdu." Zhang Liang said.
“That’s right, if Zhang Liao can succeed in a surprise attack, break through Fenglingdu and enter Guanzhong, the situation of the battle in Guanzhong will soon open up.
Unfortunately, the intention of Zhang Liao''s troops has been discovered by the Tang army. The surprise attack turned into a strong attack, and it was much more difficult to capture Fenglingdu. ”
Jia Xu said with regret. After all, if the whereabouts were not revealed, the Fenglingdu defenders who were unprepared would definitely not be able to stop the surprise attack of Zhang Liao''s 40,000 elite troops, but now it has added many variables.
"Report...Fenglingdu sends back the war report."
“Show it up.”
"No."
After Ying Hao took it, he couldn''t help but look serious.
The battle report was written by Zhang Liao himself. The general content was that although it was not the case, the whereabouts were exposed to the Tang army, and the surprise attack had to be changed to a strong attack. However, reinforcements from all sides of the Tang army had not yet arrived at Fenglingdu. With the combat power of the Qin army, even if it was a strong attack, it could still occupy Fenglingdu.
Everything before the attack was as expected by Zhang Liao, but he underestimated Fu Cunshen''s ability to defend the city and missed the accident of Kong Peng.
Although the number of defenders in Fenglingdu is small, only 8,000, Fu Cunshen is good at defending. With the addition of three powerful generals who came out of nowhere, he barely defended Fenglingdu.
Seeing that Zhang Liao could not defeat the attack, the suicide squad was repelled by Kong Peng and other generals, so he sent Lu Bu to lead several generals to attack.
I thought that the famous Lu Bu took action and took down an unknown Kong Peng, which should be sure to win, but I didn''t expect that Lu Bu was defeated by Kong Peng.
This battle was destined to be famous all over the world. Lu Bu and Kong Peng first fought cavalry, but later because Kong Peng could not afford the horse, Lu Bu took the initiative to dismount and fight Kong Peng in the field.
From early battle to evening, and from evening to dawn, the two of them fought for countless rounds, and the sky was dark and the sun and the moon were dull, which made countless soldiers amazed.
In the end, Lu Bu was defeated by Kong Peng after a shortage of chess.
