Chapter 2708: Wu Qi and Su Qinchu fight, Li Mu set up an ambush to kill Gao Yang
As soon as Liu Yu left Chengdu, the news that he led a 100,000 army to command the army in person was secretly teleported back to Chang''an by Guan Yu, the No. 1 secret spy lurking in Shu Han.
After Li Jing led an army of 300,000 to the west, he handed over Yongliang to the governor of Yongzhou Wu Qi. After receiving the news, Wu Qi immediately summoned everyone to discuss how to deal with it.
Wu Qi was not afraid that the 80,000 Qin troops in Hanzhong could not stop the offensive of the 100,000 Shu troops, but was afraid that he would suffer losses in the lineup of the generals.
After all, in addition to Xing Tian, ??most of the powerful generals of Shu Han, such as Liu Er and Kong Peng, were in the ranks of this Northern Expedition, and even Li Yuanba was very likely to participate.
Most of the generals of the Yongliang Qin army were already on the way to conquer the Sui Kingdom, and only Yang Jian and Wen Zhong were left behind in Yongliang, as well as generals such as Li Zuoche, Kang Anyu, Kang Junli, as well as civil officials such as Wu Qi, Ban Chao, Yang Ku, Liu Yong, and Qin Guan.
Therefore, whether it is fighting against the Shu army or fighting in the field, if the Qin army''s current general lineup is facing the Shu army, it will definitely suffer a loss.
Wu Qi had thought that he could not make up for it, but the Qin army rarely suffered losses in fighting generals, so once it involved fighting generals, the Qin generals were very proud.
If the enemy forces take the initiative to seek war, as long as it is not a situation of defeat, the generals of the Qin Dynasty will generally go to fight.
Therefore, even if Wu Qi ordered not to fight, it would be difficult to restrain these arrogant soldiers and generals. After all, they would be unbearable to the outside king''s order.
Although Wu Qi is of high level, his qualifications are still too shallow and his prestige is not enough.
Li Jing naturally had this prestige, but he was not in Yongzhou at this time.
Since Yong Liang is under Wu Qi''s jurisdiction, he naturally has to avoid all risks.
After some thoughtful thinking, Wu Qi decided to send a letter to Li Jing, hoping to recall Yuwen Chengdu. After all, with Yang Jian and Wen Zhong there, and if Yuwen Chengdu is in it, the defense line in Hanzhong will be perfect.
Unless Shu Han sent Xing Tian over, it would be impossible for him to conquer Hanzhong, but as long as the Southern Man was still there for one day, Xing Tian would never be able to come.
Wu Qi also knew that Li Jing had just gone to war for a few days and urgently recalled the strongest general under him. It was indeed a bit unauthorized, so he gave the second option.
If Li Jing is reluctant to leave Yuwen Chengdu, he can do it if he doesn''t send Yuwen Chengdu back. He can just choose any three of the four generals, Longyang, Tuxingsun, Yang Ren, and Longxuhu.
At this time, Li Jing was still on the journey to the west, and Yuwen Chengdu, as the pioneer, was also fighting with Yang Su in Jincheng. It is definitely not something that he could come back just by coming back.
As for choosing three of Long Yang and other four generals, it would be even more difficult to transfer them back. After all, these four people belong to different armies, so it would be more troublesome to transfer them back.
Li Jing’s reply will take a few days before it will be sent back, and Wu Qi is already ready to fight.
When they learned about the Northern Expedition of Shu Han, all the generals of the Qin army attached great importance to it. After all, Liu Yu was the emperor in person this time.
But when the Shu army heard that there were only 100,000 in total, many generals did not care. Obviously, they did not think that the 100,000 Shu army could break through Hanzhong, which was guarded by 80,000 Qin troops.
Many people even think that Liu Yu''s personal expedition was just a show, with heavy thunder and little rain. Their real purpose was to restrain the Qin army and share the pressure for the Sui army, not to counterattack Hanzhong.
In response to this, Wu Qi only said: "How could you know that Liu Yu would not increase his troops? He underestimated the enemy so much before the war started. Have you forgotten Yang Guang''s lesson?"
Yang Guang was easily knocked open to the country by the Qin army because he underestimated the enemy. This lesson is close to him.
When the Qin generals heard Wu Qi take Yang Guang as an example, they naturally realized that they underestimated the enemy and took the initiative to accuse them.
Seeing that the generals did not underestimate the enemy as before, Wu Qi naturally would not hold on and began to make combat arrangements.
"Now the enemy is open and secret, and the Shu army does not know the specific strength of our army, so our army can show that the enemy is weak, and only exposes part of the strength to lure the Shu army out of Jiange, because it fights head-on and defeats it in one fell swoop."
If there were 200,000 Shu troops invading, then Wu Qi naturally adopted a passive defense strategy, but now only 100,000 are coming, while the Qin troops have 80,000, so Wu Qi naturally has to take the initiative.
"General Yang Jian, you are the governor of Hanzhong. You will be the main force in this battle. General Wen Zhong is your deputy general. You two lead an army of 40,000 to guard Hanzhong, and strive to lead Liu Yu''s 100,000 troops out of Jiange, and this governor leads 40,000 troops to hide in the rear."
As soon as Wu Qi said this, Yang Jian and Wen Zhong immediately stood up, clasped their fists and said, "Oh."
Looking at the two of them leaving, a glimmer flashed in Wu Qi''s eyes. Although he was not 100% sure, he probably guessed Liu Yu''s purpose.
Now is the only opportunity for Shu Han to counterattack Hanzhong. Liu Yu wanted to take back Hanzhong, but was not sure, so he made this trick, wanting the Qin army to relax his vigilance.
If Wu Qi was not here, the Qin army would indeed be trapped, but the person in charge of the Qin army is the military sage Wu Qi, so he naturally would not easily fall into Su Qin''s plan.
"Liu Yu and Su Qin are two good opponents."
Wu Qi thought to himself that he was still somewhat expecting the upcoming offensive of Shu Han.
Liu Yu, who was still on the march, learned that the Qin army had taken action and the number of people was only 40,000, and was excited and wanted to fly directly to Hanzhong to fight the Qin army. However, after Su Qin''s persuasion, he quickly realized the problem.
Hanzhong is a place that must be fought for by military strategists. In order to seize Hanzhong, the Qin Dynasty launched two battles in Hanzhong, and accumulated hundreds of thousands of troops, and then it took Hanzhong from Shu Han.
So, in a place as important as Hanzhong, how could the Qin Dynasty leave only 40,000 defenders?
"The Qin Dynasty must have hidden its troops. So, Yang Jian''s purpose is..."
"That''s right, Yang Jian wants to lead our army out of Jiange, and then concentrate his troops and defeat our army in one fell swoop."
Su Qin''s eyes were full of wisdom and analyzed: "Since Yang Jian is so sure, once my 100,000 troops leave the Jian Pavilion, he can defeat our army with the Hanzhong Qin army. Then the local Qin army in Hanzhong will have at least 60,000 to 70,000."
"I am worthy of being the prime minister. Just based on some details of the location, I guess the facts and reality of the Qin army."
Liu Yu said in his heart, and at the same time he thought in his heart that if there were 70,000 Qin troops, the possibility of a 200,000 army conquering Hanzhong was still a very difficult conclusion, so it is best to focus on wisdom. "Prime Minister, since we already know Wu Qi''s purpose, why not use this to plan?"
Su Qin knew what Liu Yu meant, but he shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, our opponent is Yang Jian on the surface, but in fact, all of Yang Jian''s actions were manipulated by Wu Qi, the governor of Yongzhou.
I have carefully studied Wu Qi. This man has a very strong military ability and has many strategies. He can calculate ten steps and is a more difficult opponent than Yang Jian.
His purpose of taking action now is to test us. If we use this as a basis to counter-calling him, it will not only be impossible for us to succeed, but it may also be counter-calling by him. After all, the Qin army is the one that takes the initiative now. ”
Hearing this, Liu Yu nodded involuntarily and sighed: "I thought Li Jing was not here, and it would be much easier to counterattack Hanzhong, but I didn''t expect that if Li Jing was gone, there would be Wu Qi.
Prime Minister, since Wu Qi is so difficult to deal with, can the restraining strategy make the Qin army relax their vigilance? ”
"Your Majesty, don''t worry. Even if you can''t dispel the Qin army''s vigilance, I have other plans to break the situation.
The previous combat plan remained unchanged, and the 100,000 troops were still confronting the Qin army in Jiange, as long as they could restrain the Qin army in Hanzhong.
Now the most important thing is to take the initiative back from the Qin army. "Su Qin said confidently.
Seeing that Su Qin was so confident, Liu Yu became more confident when he was infected by Qi.
Just as Su Qin and Wu Qi were fighting wits and courage in Hanzhong, the war in Liangzhou changed again.
Because Li Mu''s confidentiality measures were too good, and Sima Xin helped cover it up, the Sui Kingdom naturally turned all his attention to the Qin army in Yunwu''s direction without knowing that Heguan had fallen.
After Yang Guang sent Yang Su to support Jincheng, he sent 5,000 reinforcements to Heguan to be on the safe side.
After Li Mu learned the news, he was naturally overjoyed and immediately canceled the plan to capture the Three Mountains and Five Villages, and instead prepared to swallow the five thousand reinforcements first.
After three days of patient waiting, the 5,000 reinforcements led by Sui General Gao Yang finally arrived at Xinglong Road 50 miles north of Heguan after passing through the Three Mountains and Five Villages, and Li Mu had already led an army of 20,000 here for a long time.
As the founding emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty, Gao Yang was a very wise and decisive monarch in the late period of his reign, and was a very wise and decisive monarch.
The most important military strategy of the Northern Qi Dynasty is Gao Huan, but Gao Yang is not much inferior to his father in terms of military affairs.
After Gao Yang proclaimed himself emperor and established Qi, he personally led a large army to attack Kumoxi in the north, chase Khitan in the northeast, defeat Rouran in the northwest, flatten Shanhu in the west, and take Huainan in the south, extending the sphere of influence of the Northern Qi to the border of the Yangtze River.
Although Gao Huan laid the foundation for Northern Qi, it achieved its prosperity in Gao Yang''s hands.
Yang Guang sent Gao Yang over at this time, which shows that he also realized that once the Qin army invaded, Sima Xinzhi might not be able to defend Heguan, so he sent Gao Yang, his confidant general.
But what Yang Guang never expected was that Heguan fell silently, and he sent Gao Yang over at this time, undoubtedly asking Gao Yang to die.
Gao Yang’s current five-dimensionality: Commander 96 (+1), Force 99 (+4), Intelligence 85 (+1), Politics 90 (95), Charm 88;
Gao Yang, who has a commander''s attribute of up to 96 points and an intellectual attribute of 85, wouldn''t be easily surrendered, but how could he have thought that there would be a Qin army ambush in his country?
When half of the troops entered Xinglong Road, Gao Yang instinctively noticed something was wrong. After carefully observing the surrounding environment, he faintly noticed the murderous intent in the secret order, and immediately shouted with anger:
"No, there are ambushes here, the back team will change to the front team and retreat immediately."
As soon as he finished speaking, countless arrows flew from all directions, but the Sui army was not prepared and was shot directly and turned over by himself, making a mess in an instant.
"Retreat, retreat quickly."
Gao Yang blocked the raid and shouted orders, but the Sui army was suddenly attacked and was completely in chaos, so he could not listen to his orders.
Seeing that the front army was in a mess and could not command it at all, Gao Yang could only agree to give up half of the army to protect the rear army.
But what Gao Yang did not expect was that when he led the rear army to reason about the ambush circle, he was blocked by an enemy army, and the two Qin generals led by him were Li Mu and Yan Xing.
When Gao Yang saw that the visitor was Li Mu, he was shocked, but he didn''t have time to think about the reason. After looking at the two deputy generals Gao Guiyan and Gao Dezheng around him, he whispered: "I can''t be good anymore, prepare to break through."
"No"
Gao Guiyan and Gao De said with a serious expression, and they were both royal generals of the Northern Qi Dynasty, so they naturally understood that they had to fight to the death in the current situation.
"Li Mu, it''s been a long time since we met. I really didn''t expect us to meet here..."
Gao Yang immediately stepped forward, preparing to delay the time so that the Sui army could reorganize the army, but how could he hide his little abacus from Li Mu.
"Gao Yang, during the Guanzhong War, I didn''t see you talking so much nonsense. I wanted to use this to delay time. You made a mistake in the plan and kill."
Li Mu was not talking nonsense and directly ordered an attack, not giving Gao Yang any chance, and Gao Yang could only be forced to fight.
Li Mu and Gao Yang are also old rivals. When the Li Yang family competed for Guanzhong, the two had fought more than once.
The Gao family has killed many people from the Li family, and Gao Yang has even killed Li Mu''s close relatives, so Li Mu naturally cannot let Gao Yang go.
Li Mu directly approached Gao Yang, while Gao Guiyan and Gao Dezheng met Yan Xing.
Li Mu and Gao Yang, one is a **** general of 100 in Kiwu and the other is a top-notch peak of 99 in Kiwu. The gap in strength is not large, so they are also in a match.
But as he fought, Li Mu, whose potential was stimulated, became more and more courageous and even broke through in the battle. Finally, in the 18th round, he grabbed the flaw in Gao Yang''s gun technique and directly pierced Gao Yang''s heart with one shot.
Gao Yang, the first emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty, died tragically under Li Mu''s gun.
