Chapter 375: The small battle before the decisive battle

In the second year of Zhongping, September 3.

Si Li, who has been calm for less than a month, has once again made waves.

The time has come for Qin Wen and Zhang Jiao to make an appointment, and both sides have made preparations, and 60,000 soldiers will fight a decisive battle in an open area fifty miles away from Luoyang City.

Luoyang, school field.

Qin Wen stood on the platform with a serious face, his eyes kept scanning the 30,000 soldiers who were about to go out under the stage.

"Father, 15,000 cavalry, 5,000 sword and shield soldiers, 5,000 pikemen, 5,000 crossbowmen, a total of 30,000 troops have been prepared."

Qin Hao, who was standing first in the audience, stood up to report, while Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Sun Jian and others all stood behind him.

In the face of a cavalry madman like Xiang Yu, the cavalry is naturally the main force, but it can't arrange all the cavalry, so it will become a hard fight without technical content.

Qin Hao, on the other hand, chose four arms, and it was a 3:1:1:1 ratio of troops, so that even if he didn't know the opponent's troop allocation, he could respond with the greatest flexibility.

Looking at the neat and silent queue below, although many of them were not his subordinates, Qin Wen still nodded with satisfaction, and then pulled out the Tai'a on his waist and shouted: "The whole army is leaving." ”

"Victory, victory......"

The 30,000-strong army embarked on the journey under the farewell of millions of people in Luoyang, and waiting for them in front of them were the most elite army, the most courageous generals and the most powerful commanders of the Yellow Turbans.

The three points analyzed by Zhang Liang before the war were completely correct, and Qin Wen would take the initiative to attack because of this, but this was not his original intention.

As a general with incomparably rich experience in defending the city, Qin Wen naturally knew that it was extremely unwise to fight to the death with the Yellow Turban in Si Li, but he didn't want to give up.

With the mass base of the Han Dynasty in Sili, if a people's war is fought, Qin Wen is confident that the 700,000 troops of the Yellow Turbans will be disabled.

Of course, the price of doing this is that Si Li will definitely be directly crippled, from the most prosperous place in the Han population to the most dilapidated place of death.

But when Qin Wen received the order from the Chang'an Imperial Court to give up Si Li after symbolic resistance, set up a defensive line at Hangu Pass, and block the Yellow Turban, he was stunned.

Who influenced Liu Hong? Otherwise, how could Liu Hong give such a bold order?

For the current Han Dynasty, giving up Sili is the most correct decision, after all, Sili is the only region in the thirteen states that does not buy yellow turban accounts, and most of the people hate the yellow turbans that brought them suffering because of the war.

Now that the things that the Han should have moved have been moved, even if Si Li is thrown to the Yellow Turban, it will not help the Yellow Turban's strength, but will make Si Li a burden to the Yellow Turban, and lengthen the Yellow Turban's grain and grass supply line.

So this decision is indeed correct, but Qin Wen will not believe it anyway, this decision is made by Liu Hong.

Liu Hong in Qin Wen's heart is also a big faint king.

If it weren't for his connivance and permissiveness, the situation in Dahan would never have festered to the point it is now.

So how could this kind of genius come from Liu Hong's hand?

But since it's not Liu Hong, who influenced Liu Hong?

Qin Wen couldn't have imagined it, and although Qin Hao knew that it was Guiguzi, he didn't know how Guiguzi did it.

Has Liu Hong also become the maintainer of your plan? Teacher, how did you do this without any power? Qin Hao stared at the south and said secretly in his heart.

Qin Hao must not lose this battle, otherwise he will be very passive next, but without knowing Xiang Yu's specific troop deployment, Qin Hao is not absolutely sure of victory.

Under the arrangement of the Xuanhuang Department and Dongfang Sheng, Shi Lan had successfully returned to Xiang Yu's side without a flaw, but the information of the extremely random deployment of troops, Shi Lan was not easy to contact at present.

Just when Qin Hao was thinking nonsense, the 30,000 Han army had already arrived on the battlefield, and the 30,000 army of the Yellow Turban had actually arrived before the Han army.

In a general war, there is a custom before the start of the war, and the commanders of the two sides always have to meet.

Like last time, Zhang Jiao slowly came to the front of the formation under the escort of Xiang Yu and several other generals.

The difference is that last time Xiang Yu was a fake with a mask, but this time it is real.

Seeing this, Qin Wen was a little entangled in his heart, he knew that this kind of meeting was meaningless, it was better to go to war directly,

But Zhang Jiao has already come, if he doesn't go, won't he lose to the Yellow Turban in terms of momentum?

What's more, in the last meeting, Qin Wen also suffered a loss from Zhang Jiao.

Qin Hao saw his father's thoughts, so he rode his horse to Qin Wen's side and said, "Father, let the child escort you." ”

Qin Wen nodded when he heard this, and Qin Hao immediately said when he saw this: "Lu Bu, Ran Min, Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, Xu Chu, the five of you will protect your father and marshal together with Ben Hou." ”

"No." The five of them immediately stood up and answered.

In addition to Xu Chu, the four of them were all well-known fierce generals, and the sudden appearance of such an unfamiliar face also surprised the soldiers of the Han army, and they couldn't help but look at Xu Chu carefully.

They also want to see who they are qualified to be tied with these four fierce generals.

After perceiving everyone's gaze, Xu Chu proudly straightened his chest, held his new weapon, and rode his horse to follow.

Xu Chu, who had a peak basic force of 99, took the initiative to surrender, and Qin Hao naturally wanted to equip him with weapons and horses.

Obtaining the allegiance of Xu Chu and Yu Ban, Qin Hao got two mount cards and a divine soldier card, so he used one in Xu Chu each, and finally got the Purple Gold Hammer and the Liangju Black Flame.

At present, Xu Chu, who has a basic force of 96, directly changed his shotgun after getting new equipment, and his basic force reached 98.

Those who questioned Xu Chu closed their mouths tacitly after seeing the sledgehammer in his hand.

The person who can pick up this kind of weapon is obviously impossible to be weak, and the Yanmen Army has gained another peerless general.

The princes present thought with great jealousy.

And the brothers Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Guangyi, who were standing behind Yuan Shu, their eyes were not on Xu Chu, but on Qin Hao, who was in the first place, their eyes were even brighter, and they didn't know what they were thinking.

Seeing Qin Wen coming, Zhang Jiao smiled and arched his hand: "General Qin, long time no see." ”

Qin Wen returned the same polite salute when he saw this, and when Xu Chu saw his brother who was guarding Zhang Jiao's right, he immediately threw a questioning look at him, and Xu Ding ignored Xu Chu with a calm face.

The eye contact between the two brothers did not affect Dao Qin Wen and Zhang Jiao's second confrontation in the slightest.

With the lesson of last time, Qin Wen was very cautious this time, and did not give Zhang Jiao the slightest chance, but dug a lot of pits for Zhang Jiao, and Zhang Jiao, who is so cunning and cunning, will naturally not be fooled.
