Chapter 2724 Mao Dun fell into the Yuan Meng Rebellion, Meng Tian fought against Qinling


    Chapter 2721: Mao Dun fell into the Yuan Meng chaos, Meng Tian fought against Qinling


    "Okay, it''s just a ruling of the Qiang Dynasty."


    Seeing that all the generals under his command were full of righteous indignation, and they were very arrogant and would not give up if they did not agree, Li Jing said, "The Qiang, Sui and Tang dynasties can be destroyed. Can I, the Qin Dynasty? At worst, I will destroy the Qiang again."


    All the generals were stunned and calmed down one after another.


    Yes, the Sui and Tang dynasties can destroy the Qiang tribe, and our Great Qin is ten times stronger than the Sui and Tang dynasties. Can''t it be destroyed?


    Seeing that everyone was quiet, Li Jing felt relieved. He could understand the anger in the hearts of the generals, but it was absolutely impossible to attack Daxing.


    Daxing is the most powerful city in Liangzhou. It has a large number of defenders and abundant supplies. The cost of attacking is too high. It is impossible to attack without spending three or four months and 30,000 to 40,000 people.


    All the current battles of Daqin, except for paying such a great price in Jiangling City, no other city has such an honor.


    It is precisely because of this that Li Jing first set up a trap for the dragon, and then decided to attack the heart, intending to break the city at the lowest price.


    According to Li Jing''s plan, after Daxing becomes an isolated city, if he cooperates with the attack plan, the internal situation will be unstable within half a month, and then Daxing will be easily defeated under the attack of the inside and outside.


    As for whether Yang Guang can resolve this situation, to be honest, Li Jing was not worried at all. He was full of confidence in his trapped dragon situation, but he didn''t expect that Yang Guang''s death struggle was much more powerful than he expected, but he was just drinking poison to quench his thirst.


    As soon as he thought of this, Li Jing was not only not worried at all, but was looking forward to whether Yang Guang had any other tricks. If he had already lost his skills, wouldn''t it be boring?


    After shook his head and dispelling distracting thoughts, Li Jing continued: "Although the Sui and Tang Dynasties destroyed the Qiang tribe, they were just tricks. The seven counties of Haizhou left too many hidden dangers, and the conflicts between the Han and Qiang continued.


    Now that Yang Guangla Qiang tribes serve as a custody for themselves, I, Daqin, took this opportunity to clean up the Qiang people in Haizhou and completely destroy the Qiang again, leaving behind a Haizhou without hidden dangers for future generations. Wouldn''t it be so happy? ”


    "The Grand Governor is right. My Qin Dynasty wants to completely destroy the Qiang and not leave hidden dangers for future generations."


    As soon as Li Mu spoke, the generals agreed. Now the atmosphere changed from the indignation and scolding just now to the passion of wanting to destroy the Qiang again.


    “According to the information sent back from Xining, the Tubo general Lun Qinling has led 100,000 Tubo troops to join Yang Xingmi and Yang Xiong’s Sui army.


    The major Qiang forces in Haizhou have also conquered 60,000 to 70,000 new troops, and are still growing rapidly, and are expected to not be less than 100,000.


    In other words, the total number of troops from the three coalition forces of Haizhou, Sui, Qiang, and Tubo may reach 27. ”


    Although Li Jing said this, his face looked calm, as if he did not take the 270,000 enemy troops in his heart.


    But after hearing this, the generals were shocked. Obviously, they didn''t expect that the Sui Kingdom would die and could still raise 270,000 coalition forces.


    The Qin army of Yongliang finally fought a wealthy battle, but under Yang Guang''s operation, it lost its absolute military advantage.


    Li Mu saw the worries in the hearts of the generals and said confidently: "Although the three coalition forces of the Sui, Qiang, Tubo have a large number of troops, they are just mobs.


    The 100,000 Qiang army is all new recruits, how much combat power can it have? The Tubo army''s combat power was even weaker, and only 70,000 Sui army could be defeated.


    As the last thing is, the more the three coalition forces, the better it is for us.


    Not to mention that the coalition forces only have 270,000, even if they are 720,000, they are definitely not my opponent of the Qin Dynasty. They will only be the meritorious service of our merits. ”


    Li Jing smiled rarely, "General Li Mu is right. Although the three coalition forces have a large number of troops, most of them are weak army. With our army''s combat power, we will defeat them. This time, let these barbarians see the power of our Qin army."


    Hearing Li Mu and Li Jing say this, all the generals present felt relieved. Although there were 270,000, they still couldn''t scare them who often fought tough battles.


    The current military strength of the Qin army is divided into four parts: Li Jing and Li Mu led 115,000 troops to surround Daxing, Li Maozhen of Longyang led 60,000 troops to attack Wuwei County, Meng Tian led 80,000 troops to guard Xining Cheng, and Long Qi led 40,000 troops to guard Xianmei City.


    On the surface, the Qin army''s military distribution was extremely scattered, not as the Sui army had concentrated 270,000 troops in Haizhou alone. However, in fact, the Qin army was very mobile, and its location was of great importance, which stunted all the vitality of the Sui army.


    This forced Yang Guang to implement the Qiang ruling to extend his life to the Sui Kingdom.


    In fact, when the war against Sui Dynasty reached this point, the focus of the war was no longer on Daxing, but was transferred to Haizhou.


    Daxing is easy to defend but difficult to attack. The injury and casualties are too great, and it is difficult to force the attack and attack in the short term. However, Haizhou gathered 270,000 coalition forces of the three Sui, Qiang, Tubo families.


    At this time, it is no longer so important whether the Qin Dynasty can defeat Daxing. Instead, defeating the Three Kingdoms coalition was the top priority of this battle.


    As long as the 270,000 Sui, Qiang and Tubo coalition forces can be defeated and completely cut off the hope of Daxing City, Daxing, which is about to become an isolated city, may be ashamed of himself without fighting.


    Therefore, Li Jing was still not prepared to attack Daxing, but was preparing to defeat the three coalition forces in Haizhou first, completely cut off Yang Guang''s last hope, and then eat Daxing''s fat piece without bloodshed.


    The total strength of the three coalition forces in Haizhou reached 270,000. With Meng Tian’s ability, he might be able to win this battle with only 80,000 troops, but the casualties will definitely be greater.


    What''s more, the Qin army was not without remaining strength and could not provide Meng Tian with military support.


    The Qin army has 110,000 troops under Daxing City. It is possible to transfer some of them to support Meng Tian.


    As for the 60,000 troops in Wuwei County, they will definitely not be transferred before they completely occupy Wuwei. After all, the complete capture is related to the plan to completely isolate Daxing.


    "In attacking Daxing, we mainly focus on attacking the heart and attacking the city as the best, so our governor is ready to drop some of his troops to support Meng..."


    Before Li Jing finished speaking, soldiers urgently reported: "Report... to the Grand Governor, 800 miles of Hezhou were expedited. The Yelu tribe in Moxi wanted to return to the Qiang tribe due to the Qiang order. The leaders Yelu Shilu and Yelu Helu had publicly opposed the Yuan Dynasty. Now they have led 30,000 troops straight to Liangzhou and will arrive in Xianmei City soon."


    Li Jing couldn''t help but be stunned, turned to frown slightly, and said, "It seems that Yelu Shilu''s 30,000 troops are Yang Guang''s last trump card."


    Li Jing was just thinking, is Yang Guang still thinking if there are any other tricks? If so, what would it be?


    Li Jing thought a lot and even guessed that Yang Guang might recall Yang Shuang''s army, but he did not expect that Yelu Shilu in Moxi would rebel against Yuan Meng.


    But after thinking about it carefully, Li Jing discovered the problem and chuckled, "Kublai has invested a lot this time in order to support the Sui Kingdom."


    In the previous battle to go out to the frontier, although Yuan Meng was severely injured by the Qin Dynasty, he was not weak enough to allow the tribes in the western Mo to defect. Yelu Shilu was able to lead 30,000 troops to defect, which must be the reason why Kublai Khan deliberately indulged him.


    "In order to unify Yuan Meng, Kublai Khan ignored the warnings of our Daqin many times. Even if he had only taught him a lesson a year ago, he would not have a memory so quickly."


    Hearing Li Jing say this, Li Mu said with a serious look: "I shouldn''t have let Kublai Khan return to China at the beginning. The threat of this person is no less than Temujin."


    Li Mu''s evaluation of Kublai Khan was very high, but he was also completely worthy of Kublai Khan. After all, the threat he posed to the Qin Dynasty was greater than that of the princes of the Central Plains such as Cao Cao and Yang Guang.


    “By the way, the rebels led by Yelu Shilu, the Mongolian rebels will arrive in Xianmei City. At that time, General Longqi will face Gao Huan and Yelu Shilu at the same time.


    General Long Qi has only 40,000 troops under his command, and his troops are slightly weak, and Xianmei City is extremely critical. Should we give priority to the addition of some troops to Xiancheng?


    Or should we temporarily suspend the strategy of Wuwei County and transfer the army that has led Wuwei back to the Meicheng? ”


    Li Mu made a statement, but after thinking about it, Li Jing did not accept any of them.


    "The Wuwei strategy is crucial and must not be stopped. Besides, Xianmei City is different from Xining City. There are only thousands of people in Xianmei City. Without internal troubles, General Long Qi''s 40,000 troops will be enough to hold them for a year and a half, so there is no need to increase troops."


    Li Jing still felt that Haizhou was more important, so he decided to give priority to the resolution of the three coalition forces in Haizhou, but unexpectedly, the news that exceeded expectations was one after another.


    "Report to the Grand Governor, 800 miles of Chang''an were expedited. When Maodun was inspecting the Ulan tribe, he was ambushed by unknown forces and died. The thousand guards who accompanied him were wiped out."


    "What? Maodun died?"


    When they heard this news, not only Li Jing and Li Mu were shocked. After all, Mao Dun was a person who cherished his life, but he was ambushed in his territory? This is obviously a trap specifically targeting Maodun.


    "Maoton should be the commander who is the best at using cavalry besides Temujin, but he did not die on the battlefield, but died in the power struggle within Yuanmeng."


    After sighing, Li Jing asked, "Mao Dun''s death must be unrelated to Kublai Khan. How did Yuan Meng happen to him after his death?"


    "After Maodun''s death, Junchen and Yi Zhixie wanted to inherit his position, and the two sides argued over this, and Kublai Khan took this opportunity to launch a large number of troops. Junchen and Yi Zhixie were forced to join forces, and the Yuanmeng broke out again."


    After hearing this, Li Jing immediately understood why this news came from Chang''an. After all, although Maodun died, his power was still there and he was an ally with Daqin. Kublai Khan took action against Daqin''s allies again, Daqin must have made some statements.


    Wu Qi wanted to tell him to suspend the increase in troops to Haizhou first to wait for the court to react to the matter.


    On the issue of the unification of the Yuan and Mongolian people, the Qin Dynasty always held opposition and even sent troops directly to intervene, which led to the previous battle to go out to the frontier.


    Now that Maodun has fallen, the Yuan-Mongolian civil war has resurfaced. It is obvious that it cannot be Kublai Khan''s opponent only by relying on military officials and Yi Zhixie.


    This time, Kublai Khan''s determination to unify the Yuan and Meng was unprecedentedly strong. If the Qin Dynasty wanted to stop the Yuan and Meng from unifying again, it might not be enough to rely on the garrisons of Binghe Prefectures. The only place where the troops could be drawn was the Western Front battlefield in Liangzhou.


    If Li Jing transferred the new army to Haizhou, if the court dispatched troops from the Western Front to intervene in the internal struggle of Yuan and Mongolia, there would definitely be no troops to adjust, and this would affect the Qin Dynasty''s core strategy against Yuan and Mongolia.


    Therefore, Wu Qi specially sent a letter from Chang''an to remind Li Jing.


    Li Jing naturally did not want to divide his troops. After all, with the arrival of 100,000 Tubo troops and the introduction of the Jie Qiang Order, the Qin army on the Western Front no longer had the advantage in terms of military strength.


    But it was related to Daqin''s core strategy towards Yuan Meng. Even Li Jing was very unhappy and could only endure it first.


    Due to the news of the death of Maodun, Li Jing deliberately waited for three days without sending reinforcements. Three days later, the Qin Dynasty responded to the Yuan-Mongol Civil War.


    As Li Jing expected, most of the officials led by Prime Ministers Wang Meng and Xun Yu believed that although the Qin Dynasty still had the strength to intervene, before completely occupying the Central Plains and expelling the Sui Kingdom from Liangzhou, they should retain their strength to deal with the variables that may arise in the future, rather than using limited power on the grassland, so they all opposed interfering in the internal struggle of Yuan and Mongolia.


    After receiving the news, Li Jing had no worries in his heart. He immediately decided to personally lead a 50,000 army to Haizhou to support Meng Tian, ??and left Huluguang to lead the remaining troops to continue to siege Daxing.


    "Grandmaster, what if Yang Guang goes out of the city to fight or break through after you lead 50,000 yuan?"


    Huluguang asked with some concern. After all, without Li Jing and the 50,000 army, the Qin army only had 65,000 troops left in Daxing. The advantage in military strength was not great, and it was difficult to completely trap the Daxing defenders, and Yang Guang and Yang Su were both cruel guys.


    "Don''t worry, Yang Guang dares not leave the city. If he dares to fight, our army will not need to avoid the war. No matter how big the casualties of going to war on the front are, they are much smaller than the strong attack on Daxing.


    As for breaking through, it is even more impossible. Without Daxing City, he will only die faster. ”


    Hearing Li Jing say this, Hu Luguang let go of all his worries, and Li Jing also led his army to Haizhou.


    Just as Li Jing was waiting for news from the Qin Dynasty, Meng Tian had already started a war with the Tubo army in Haizhou and Lunqinling, and the battle was extremely fierce.
