Chapter 796: The Battle of Changping

On the Songjin battlefield, the 130,000 Ming army and the 40,000 army of Mingguan were besieged by the Qing army in the area south of Jinzhou City.

The Qing army dug a trench to cut off the grain route of the Ming army, the trench was eight feet deep and one foot wide, and the Ming army was besieged, and the 130,000 Ming soldiers were panicked.

As soon as Mingguan came to the battlefield of the Battle of Songjin, he was faced with a desperate situation.

Hong Chengchou, the chief general of the Ming army, wanted to fight a decisive battle with the Qing army, but the eight general soldiers controlled by Hong Chengchou and the supervising army of the Ming army advocated breaking through separately.

Mingguan formed an army of his own and did not obey Hong Chengchou's orders: "Hong Chengchou wants to put his death and survive, but the eight general soldiers set up by the imperial court each have their own soldiers and horses, and they support their own troops, Hong Chengchou may not be able to control them, and most of them will choose to accept the proposals of each general soldier." Now that he is in a desperate situation, he should be the same as Han Xin, fighting against the water, how can he disperse and break through, be divided and surrounded by the Qing army, and then annihilate? ”

Chang Yuchun and Li Chengliang were brought by the Ming Pass to participate in the Battle of Songjin, and he was almost to death by the general soldiers and supervisors of the Ming army.

The generals of the Ming army were timid, unwilling to fight to the death, and advocated fleeing back to Ningyuan.

Chang Yuchun and Li Chengliang also sneered at these general soldiers: "Lord, how can we break the situation?" ”

"Among the general soldiers of the Ming army, Wang Pu, the general soldier of Datong, Wu Sangui, the general soldier of Ningyuan, and others lack the will to fight, and they may soon flee with their troops, and they must be taken down, and we coerce Hong Chengchou to fight a decisive battle with the Qing army. If they dare to resist, they will kill them. If we lose the decisive battle, we will leave this place. Anyway, no matter if you win or lose, you have to give it a try, otherwise, you will have regrets in this life! ”

Mingguan seemed to have made up his mind.

In 1641, the Ming army and the Qing army were basically defeated repeatedly, and it was not a few years before the fall of the Ming Dynasty, and they had lost their morale, and Ming Guan suspected that the morale of the Ming army on the battlefield was even lower than 40, and the generals had no fighting spirit.

However, Ming Guan still had the ability to restore some of the morale of the Ming army, and there was still hope of defeating Huang Taiji's Eight Banner Cavalry.

The equipment of the Ming army is not weak, but the soldiers have no fighting spirit, and the generals don't know what they are doing, and the emperor's civil officials can't deal with Li Zicheng in the pass and Huang Taiji outside the pass.

Wu Sangui, who had already been killed by Chu Tian once in the main world, was targeted by Ming Guan again on the battlefield of the Battle of Songjin.

Chang Yuchun said sharply: "Please rest assured, if they dare to disobey, I will personally cut off their heads." ”

"Win or lose, Wu Sangui must die."

As soon as Ming Guan's voice fell, Wu Sangui, the chief soldier of Ningyuan, felt cold behind him, and he seemed to feel that his life was in danger.

……

On the battlefield of Changping, the sky was overcast, the wind was gusting, and the 400,000 Zhao army was besieged by the Qin army, and they were at a loss.

The banner of the Qin army was unfurled, and the cold armor and sharp Changge exuded a solemn atmosphere.

Bai Qi cut off the Zhao army's grain road with cavalry, and Zhao Kuo, the commander of the Zhao army, had a bloodless face: "I fell for the Qin army's strategy and was surrounded by the Qin army, but how could Wang Di, the commander of the Qin army, have such a careful mind?" ”

Behind Zhao Kuo, the 400,000 Zhao army built a barrier, turned to defense, and chose the opportunity to break through.

Zhao Kuo was still commanding the Zhao army, and it seemed that the Zhao army had not collapsed, but every Zhao general and soldier was worried, and the hand holding Changge was trembling.

The Qin army, which besieged the 400,000 troops of the Zhao State, had 600,000!

Originally, there were only more than 400,000 soldiers and peasants in the Qin army, but Lao Qin, the lord of the Han Empire, chose the "extremely difficult" difficulty, and the number of soldiers and peasants in the Qin army increased by half, reaching an astonishing 600,000!

Under normal circumstances, in the "extremely difficult" battle, the enemy's strength is doubled, but in the Battle of Changping, the difficulty of the Zhao camp is already extremely high, and it is already quite terrifying to increase the strength by half.

Zhao Kuo wants to curse now.

He couldn't defeat the 400,000 Qin army, and now there are 600,000 Qin troops on the opposite side!

"The main general of the Qin army is not Wang Ji (he), but Bai Qi."

Lao Qin came to Zhao Kuo's side and reminded Zhao Kuo, who didn't know what had happened.

In Lao Qin's eyes, Zhao Kuo was just an inexperienced little kid.

Lao Qin has experienced more battles than Zhao Kuo has walked, and the most important thing is that Lao Qin knows the before and after of the Battle of Changping.

Sure enough, when Zhao Kuo heard that the Lord of the Qin Army had changed from Wang Qi to Bai Qi, his already pale face faded even more, and his voice trembled: "Bai Qi, why is it Bai Qi?" The scouts learned the news, and repeatedly confirmed that the leader of the Qin army would be Wang Di! ”

"It's not difficult to change generals in secret."

While talking to Zhao Kuo, Lao Qin secretly called him unlucky-he was randomly assigned to the Battle of Changping by the system, and he was also in the camp of Zhao State.

Extremely difficult, the Qin army is 600,000.

This is not bad, otherwise if it is a hell mode, and the Qin army becomes a million, then the Changping battlefield will really be hell.

At least for now, Lao Qin still has a countermeasure to solve the situation.

Jia Xu was brought to the battlefield by Lao Qin, and he had already thought of a way to break the situation: "The commander of the Qin army is Bai Qi, and his commanding ability is unparalleled in Changping, unmatched, and can only be used to resolve the crisis on the battlefield outside the battlefield." ”

Lao Qin nodded undeniably.

He really can't beat Bai Qi.

The "Extremely Hard" mode is no joke and is second only to the "Hell" mode, so each battlefield is extremely difficult.

In the Battle of Songjin, when Mingguan appeared on the battlefield, the Ming army had been besieged by more than 200,000 Qing troops, and the eight general soldiers of the Ming army were demoralized and dragged the back of Mingguan.

In the battle of Kunyang, Chutian faced the 840,000 new army, Wang Mang drove the expedition in person, and had many elites such as the five schools of the Northern Army, the Tiger Ben Army, and the Beast Army, as well as the giants, the descendants of the pre-Qin soldiers, and the Nine Tigers of the Northern Army.

In the Battle of Changping, Lao Qin and the 400,000 Zhao army were surrounded by the 600,000 army commanded by Bai Qi and managed to break through.

"It's over, Qin Jun actually changed the coach in secret. Wait a minute...... Why did our Zhao State replace me to replace Lian Po as the main general, and the Qin army changed generals almost at the same time? Could it be that this is also a trick of the Qin army? ”

Zhao Kuo, as the son of the famous general Zhao Hao, is familiar with the art of war, and at this time, he also reacted in time.

"That's right, the two armies are changing generals, this is the Qin army's discordant plan. If King Zhao was willing to pay some price, he might be able to save the lives of his army of 400,000. I need you to send a letter to King Zhao. Otherwise, the 400,000 Zhao army would all be killed by the Qin army. ”

"How could the Qin army possibly kill 400,000 people? Unless they go crazy, the Six Kingdoms will be terrified and unite their armies to attack Qin! ”

Zhao Kuo did not believe that the Qin army would kill 400,000 Zhao troops at one time.

Even in the Warring States, this would be criticized.

"The Six Kingdoms have joined forces to attack Qin more than once, but how many times have they won? At present, among the six countries, Zhao is a major disaster for Qin. In order to attack Zhao, Qin lost a lot of soldiers. If 400,000 Zhao Guoqing are captured, everyone will be killed to prevent future troubles. The Qin army should also not want to engage in a long war with the Zhao army again. What's more, killing Zhao Guoqing once is enough to deter the other five countries. Maybe King Qin won't bear this charge, but Bai Qi doesn't mind carrying it for King Qin. As a courtier, it is very common for the lord to bear the charge. ”

Lao Qin's analysis made Zhao Kuo believe that Bai Qi would kill 400,000 Zhao troops after victory: "If you can put us in danger, I am willing to obey your orders." ”

Only then did Lao Qin nod with satisfaction: "Give me the command of the 400,000 Zhao army, if the Qin army wants to eat our army, it will not be so easy, at least it will have to pay a lot of price." No matter how powerful Bai Qi is, it is impossible to provide a bonus for an army of 600,000, and I have never seen a commander like that...... Therefore, the 600,000 Qin army was actually led by a few generals, but Bai Qi had more troops. We only need to attack the other Qin generals, consume their troops, and bleed the Qin State before we have the capital to negotiate. ”

Jia Xu said on the side: "Please General Yang Dayan to command the cavalry when he arrives and cover me to fight out of the encirclement." ”

Old Qin's bodyguard, Yang Dayan, agreed: "It's not a problem." Although the Qin army was numerous, as long as I attacked its weak points with heavy cavalry and sent a few dozen people out, it would be easy for me. It's just a military advisor, your martial arts are sparse and ordinary, even if you lead dozens of cavalry out, what can you do? Could it be that with the strength of dozens of people, he could retreat 600,000 Qin troops? ”

Jia Xu smiled dumbly and pointed to the saber: "What can't be solved with a sword, you can solve it with your head." ”

Yang Dayan was still confused.

Lao Qin's voice was low, in a volume that only Jia Xu and Yang Dayan could hear: "We have 400,000 Zhao troops to drive, even if we let Zhao troops sacrifice 200,000 or 300,000 people, as long as we can achieve our goal." ”

Lao Qin knew that Zhao's army was not weak.

In the Battle of Changping, although the Qin army won, in order to eliminate the 400,000 Zhao army, 200,000 people died before and after.

This time, the number of the Qin army increased to 600,000, but it did not mean that the Qin army was willing to suffer too many casualties.

The real means still depend on Jia Xu's words.

"At this time, if I were in the camp of the Qin army, it would be easy to win, but unfortunately...... This time, it is up to Wen He to change his life for Zhao Jun. Even if Zhao Guo pays some price and saves some of the young people for Zhao Guo, he should be able to get some rewards. ”

Lao Qin looked at his task, and chose one of the two victory conditions for the "Battle of Changping": first, defeat Bai Qi, and second, Bai Qi took the initiative to retreat.

……

Yingchuan County, Kunyang City Battlefield.

"About 17,000 soldiers and horses, of which about 3,000 are elite......"

Liu Xiu recruited more than 10,000 Green Forest troops in Yuncheng, Dingling and other counties, and selected 3,000 elite soldiers from them, all of whom were equipped with war horses.

There was something wrong with the gaze of these Green Forest Army cavalrymen looking at Liu Xiu.

According to Wang Mang's increased bounty again and again, Liu Xiu's head was already worth 100,000 households and 200,000 gold, which was equivalent to Wang Mang rewarding several cities to the person who killed Liu Xiu.

It is not impossible to betray a companion for the sake of profit.

If it weren't for Chu Tian's vast territory and millions of family properties, maybe he would also be interested in Wang Mang's bounty, tie up Liu Xiu's five flowers, give it to Wang Mang, and return to the main world after receiving the reward.

"Brother Chu, why do you say that Wang Mang will reward me? And my brother's head is only worth 50,000 households and 100,000 gold. ”

When Liu Xiu was recruiting, he was puzzled.

Why did Wang Mang target him?

Liu Xiu thought that he was inferior to his brother Liu Yan, but Wang Mang insisted on rewarding Liu Xiu and regarded Liu Xiu as the number one enemy.

"Who knows......"

Chu Tian did not explain to Liu Xiu.

Wang Mang targeted Liu Xiu, naturally knowing that Liu Xiu was the biggest enemy in the battle of Kunyang, and he had the ability to reverse the tide of the battle.

But Wang Mang had already realized the existence of Liu Xiu, which Chutian did not expect, let alone that Wang Mang would personally come to Kunyang to lead the army, making the battle of Kunyang more difficult.
