Chapter 2660: Xue Rengui vs. Zhao Kuangyin, Leyi, the Yellow River blocks white air
Just as Ying Hao and the four concubines of Cao Wei were flirting with each other and enjoying the blessings of the Qi people, Cao Wei was completely in trouble because of the news of the Qin Dynasty''s attack on Wei.
Even if the Cao Wei members had known for a long time that if they completely turned against the Qin Dynasty, they would definitely face the Qin Dynasty''s key revenge, but they still did not expect that the Qin Dynasty''s revenge would be so fierce.
Among the three Central Plains, Wei is the weakest and has the worst geographical location. Under the border with the Qin Dynasty on three sides, just a 200,000 to 300,000 troops were enough to attack Wei.
But the eight armies of the Qin Dynasty attacked the Central Plains, and four of them were used to attack Wei, with a total of 420,000 troops, which was more than 100,000 more than the total military force of the Wei State after the extreme expansion.
Not to mention among these four Qin troops, there is Bai Qi who won every battle, Li Cunxiao, the world''s number one general, and even Emperor Ying Hao of the Qin Dynasty, who personally led the army.
The gap in strength between the two sides is too big, and this is a big fight.
For a time, the Wei State was panicked, and most people no longer had hope for Cao Wei, and they were thinking about how to hold the Qin army''s thigh after the Qin army came.
The Qin Dynasty had not yet officially started a war with the Wei State. Just the announcement of the military sent, the Wei State shocked the country and caused many people to lose confidence in resistance.
If this unhealthy wind is not stopped, if the Qin army really comes, it will not be allowed to surrender in batches.
Cao Cao, Xun You, Fan Li and other senior officials of the Cao Wei were well aware of this, so they decisively ordered that no one should spread remarks that affect morale, and violators would be punished for treason.
Such a severe ban can only ban people''s mouths, but cannot resist people''s hearts and cannot solve the fundamental problem.
Pei State, Qiao County.
"Military advisors, the 420,000 Qin troops were divided into four groups to invade. Bai Qi attacked Dongjun, Ying Hao attacked Chenliu, Zhang Liao and Han Xin attacked Yingchuan, how should our Great Wei resist?"
Cao Cao asked the counselors for advice a little unconfidently, but what he received was a silence. After all, in the face of an absolute gap in strength, any conspiracy is futile.
Cao Wei had actually made arrangements to deal with the Qin Dynasty, with Le Yi guarding Baima, Cao Bin guarding Yingchuan, and Xiahou Yuan guarding Chenliu. Cao Cao personally took charge of the center and supported any side at any time.
This is the best arrangement for Cao Wei, but the Qin Dynasty used too many troops to attack Wei, which made Cao Cao not confident in his previous arrangements, so he wanted to change his strategic arrangement.
But Cao Wei has only such a small family background. No matter how he arranges his troops, it cannot change the absolute gap in strength between Qin and Wei.
Changing orders every day is a taboo for military strategists. What Cao Wei wants to do now is not to change the arrangements before the war, but to adhere to the original strategy and seek assistance in other aspects.
Just as everyone was silent, Fan Li stood up and said, "Lord, the Eighth Qin army and the Four Ways to attack Wei, it can be seen that the Qin Dynasty wanted to concentrate its troops, first defeat our Wei, and then defeat the Song and Ming dynasties one by one.
Now the situation in the battlefield in the Central Plains has changed, and our Great Wei is under the greatest pressure. Li believes that General Cao Ren''s army should be recalled. ”
Hearing this, Cao Cao couldn''t help but nodded. If it were before, he would definitely not have recalled Cao Ren at the same time, but one by one.
Now the three kingdoms of Wei, Song and Ming have formed an offensive and defensive alliance, and Cao Wei, who is flat and flat, is also attacked by the four Qin troops, and the pressure faces much greater than that of the Ming Dynasty.
Ming Dynasty certainly did not want Wei to fall completely, so if Cao Ren was recalled at this time, Zhu Ming would not only not have any objections, but would also support him.
“In addition to recalling General Cao Ren, our Great Wei can also ask for help from the State of Song.
The Eighth Route Qin Army had only one Qin army to attack Song. Among the three Central Plains, Song State had the least pressure. He divided 50,000 troops to support Yanzhou, so there should not be much pressure on Zhao Song State. ”
The plan that Fan Li offered once again made Cao Cao''s eyes lit up again. After all, the pressure Cao Wei is facing is too great now, and no external aid can be let go.
After recalling Cao Ren, the total force that Cao Wei could use was 330,000. If 50,000 Song troops were added, it would be 380,000 troops. Facing the 420,000 Qin troops from all four routes, they might not have no power to fight.
"Just as military commander Fan said, recall Cao Ren immediately and ask Zhao Kuangyin for help at the same time." Cao Cao ordered in a deep voice.
At this time, Cao Ren''s 50,000 troops aided the Ming Dynasty had just arrived in Taishan County and had not yet entered the territory of the Ming Dynasty, so the time for the recall was just right.
If Cao Ren really enters the Qingnan battlefield and the war zone between Qin and Ming countries, it will not be so easy if he wants to recall Cao Ren.
"Does the military advisor have other strategies to teach orphans?"
Cao Cao looked at Fan Li with anticipation.
After a moment of silence, Fan Li said, "The Qin army''s offensive against the Western Front is particularly fierce, and even Ying Hao led the army to the expedition himself. If General Xiahou Yuan alone is ineffective, he may not be able to do so.
Qiao County is too far from the western line. If there is really a short and long distance, it may not be too late to support it. I also ask the lord to go to Chenliu in person to strengthen the morale of the army. ”
Cao Cao thought about it and felt it made sense. After all, even Ying Hao took action personally, and if he was still hiding in the back, he should really go to the front line.
After some discussion, Cao Cao made the following response:
On the Western Front, King Cao Cao of Wei was the chief general, and Fan Li and Cheng Yu were the military advisors.
Cao Cao personally took charge of Chenliu, and Xiahou Yuan took charge of the sour jujube, and fought against Ying Hao''s 150,000 Qin troops with 120,000 Wei troops.
On the northern front, Le Yi was the main general, and Xun You and Chen Qun were military advisors.
Le Yi was in charge of the White Horse, Yin Shou was in charge of Yanjin, and he used 80,000 Wei troops to fight against Bai Qi''s 120,000 Qin troops.
In the southwest, Cao Bin is the main general, and Cao Gui and Chen Gong are military advisors.
Cao Bin was in charge of Xuchang and Xue Ju, and used an army of 100,000 to fight against Zhang Liao and Han Xin''s 150,000 Qin troops.
Under Fan Li''s suggestion, while maintaining the previous layout, Cao Cao also made certain optimizations, and the overall situation is naturally much better than before.
Now the Wei Kingdom is ready, so we just wait for the Qin army to fight and then divide the Qin army into a position. But if possible, they would rather the Qin army never fight.
—————————————————Shouchun.
After receiving Cao Cao''s request for help, Zhao Kuangyin immediately prepared to send troops to support Wei State. After all, the pressure faced by Song State is indeed not great.
The Qin Dynasty only dispatched 150,000 troops to attack Song, but the Wei State attracted nearly half of the Qin Dynasty''s firepower. If the Song State ignored it, if the Wei State could not withstand it and was directly defeated by the Qin Dynasty, it would not be a good thing for the Song State.
Zhao Kuangyin was preparing to order Zhao She as the main general and Yan Xiang as the military advisor, leading an army of 60,000 to support the Wei State.
But just as the army was about to set off, it received news that a large number of Qin cavalry went south, and the number was no less than 40,000 to 50,000 cavalry, which scared Zhao Kuangyin immediately stopped the army aiding Wei.
Runan County of the Song State borders the two counties of Zhangling, Nanyang, of the Qin Dynasty. Since the Qin army in Nanyang has attacked Yingchuan, the Song State only needs to deal with the Qin army in the direction of Zhangling.
The Qin army attacked Runan from Zhangling and needed to cross Tongshan and Tongbai Mountain, and these two important places were owned by Qin and Song dynasties respectively.
The State of Song had already established several strong camps on Tongbai Mountain to resist the invasion of Zhangling''s Qin army, but this could only stop the Qin army''s infantry, after all, the infantry relied more on logistics.
But if the invading Qin army was a cavalry, they could only bring a small amount of food and grass, bypass the Tongbai Mountain defense line, and go straight to Runan County.
The 37 counties of Runan County are mostly flat lands. No matter how many troops the Song State has, it is impossible to leave enough defenders in all cities. However, as long as a county town is captured by the Qin army, the Qin army can collect grain on the spot to solve the urgent problem.
At this time, the Qin army mobilized so many cavalry to go south, obviously trying to use cavalry to break the situation first to disrupt the arrangements of Song State in Runan.
50,000 Qin Iron Cavalry is enough to threaten the entire Song Dynasty. Zhao Kuangyin naturally cannot turn a blind eye. After all, he cannot watch the Qin Iron Cavalry turn Runan upside down. Only by solving this big trouble first can he support Cao Wei.
Therefore, Zhao Kuangyin decisively stopped the 50,000 troops supporting the Wei State, and also transferred 50,000 troops from Lujiang and Jiujiang. In addition, the 130,000 troops in Yuzhou, a total of 230,000 troops were collected, as if the Qin army cavalry would siege and kill the 50,000 iron cavalry if they dared to break into Yuzhou.
Zhao Kuangyin''s threat naturally could not scare Xue Rengui. The northern cavalry continued to advance towards Zhangling, and at the same time, the garrisons of Xiangyang and Shangyong also rushed towards Zhangling.
————
Xiangyang.
"It is reported to the Grand Commander that at most one day, 50,000 cavalry will arrive at Zhangling, and 100,000 infantry will probably take five days to collect."
“Five days?”
A glimmer flashed in Xue Rengui''s eyes, and then he said in a deep voice: "If you don''t wait, if you wait any longer, it is equivalent to giving Zhao Kuangyin time to react.
The soldiers are very fast. This governor first led 50,000 iron cavalry to attack Runan, and then 100,000 infantry to follow. ”
As soon as this statement came out, the generals of Jingzhou were shocked.
Meng Gong made a statement: "Grandmaster, in this Central Plains War, our army''s goal is to destroy Wei first, then Song, and finally Ming.
Now that the four armies that destroyed Wei have not yet been dispatched, we took the lead in attacking Song and even went deep into Yuzhou alone. Would it be a bit too radical? ”
Meng Gong''s words were still very tactful, just to tell Xue Rengui clearly that in the early stage of the Central Plains War, the four armies that destroyed Wei were the protagonists. As a supporting role, we can just fight steadily. There is no need to steal the limelight like this. After all, it is impossible to destroy the Song State with just the fifteenth army.
Xue Rengui naturally knew that it was not his home court yet, but now the fighter shots are just in front of him, so he naturally would not miss such a good opportunity because the timing is wrong.
After Xue Rengui was transferred to Jingbei, he was already full of energy and was about to show his skills, but he didn''t expect that Chu''s defense in Nanjun was too strict and he didn''t give him any opportunity to take advantage of it.
Even if the Chu State devoted its whole country to attack Wu, the number of defenders left in Nanyang was the most to defend against the Qin army.
Now Xue Rengui also understands why the small Nanjun has stumped Yue Fei for so many years. It’s not that Yue Fei’s ability is not good, but that Chu’s defense does not have many flaws and does not give the Qin army any chance at all.
Fighting Nanjun must be a tough battle. Even Xue Rengui doesn’t have much room for operation, but it’s different to attack Song, let alone the fighter plane is in front of you now.
"Are you radical? I don''t think that even after entering Yuzhou, Zhao Kuangyin led the whole country''s troops, I will be sure to escape unstoppable."
Xue Rengui said confidently that he even dared to fight the 250,000 Song army with 50,000 cavalry, but Zhao Kuangyin may not dare to fight him in a dignified decisive battle.
"Meng Gong, after this governor leads his army to leave, we will leave this Xiangyang City to you."
Xue Rengui patted Meng Gong on the shoulder and said seriously: "If there is a mistake in Xiangyang, I will ask you."
When Meng Gong heard this, he clasped his fists decisively and said with a firm look on his face: "The general will definitely live up to the trust of the governor. The city is in the same place, and the city is in the same place, and the city is in the same place and the city is in the same place."
Among the generals in Jingzhou, Meng Gong was the best at defending. In Xue Rengui''s opinion, the battle to defend Jiangling was so amazing. Even if he was the same, he might not be as good as Meng Gong, so he felt relieved to hand over Xiangyang to Meng Gong.
Xue Rengui left Meng Gong to guard Xiangyang, and he took Yang Zaixing, Pei Yuanqing, Wen Pin, Wen Yang, Zhou Qing, and other generals, as well as three thousand Jingbei Jing cavalry to Zhangling, and joined the cavalry generals who went south such as Zhang Xiu, Qin Yong, and then led 50,000 iron cavalry to Runan.
When passing by the Song army camp of Tongbai Mountain, Xue Rengui sent Yang Zaixing to swear, but the Song army guard Shi Bao didn''t even dare to let go of a fart, so he let Xue Rengui enter Runan.
Fifty thousand Qin troops directly entered Yuzhou, which not only frightened the counties in Runan, but even Song Ting was extremely panicked and quickly dispatched troops to encircle and suppress them, but it was still one step too late.
Anyang County, which had no time to react, was captured in half an hour by Xue Rengui. The magistrate of Daoting surrendered without fighting when he saw this.
Just one day after Xue Rengui attacked Runan, he had seized the two counties, and then collected grain on the spot, temporarily resolving the urgent need for insufficient food and grass. Then, four groups attacked, causing the 17 counties in western Runan to be in peace.
Upon hearing the news, Zhao Kuangyin quickly led a large army to come, which also set off the beginning of the Qin and Song dynasties.
At the same time, north of the Yellow River, Liyang.
Bai Qi personally led an army of 70,000 to this point and was ready to launch a river crossing battle at any time. Le Yi had been waiting for Baima Ferry south of the Yellow River for a long time.
Bai Qi held a thousand-mile mirror and looked at the Wei Jun Water Village opposite the Yellow River, and said with admiration: "Le Yi, the governor of Cao Wei, is not simple. The ability to camp alone is enough to rank among the top ten in the world."
