Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2027 Self-defeating Qin Qing War (1)

Chapter 2025: Self-defeating, Qin Qing War (1)

The camp of the Shu-Chu Allied Forces.

Xing Tian knelt down on one knee, and said with a face of shame: "My lord, the last general is incompetent. Not only did he fail to win this battle, but he was defeated by Jiang Song and Zhao Yun."

Hearing this, Liu Ji and Liu Xiu looked at each other subconsciously, and both understood the meaning in each other's eyes.

From the very beginning, Liu Xiu disagreed with sending Xing Tian to lead the generals to challenge, because in his opinion, the Qin army is an elite division that has been trained for a long time. If the No. [-] fierce general in the South loses, it will hit the morale of the Shu-Chu Allied Forces instead, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Liu Xiu disagreed, but Liu Ji had full confidence in Xing Tian. Xing Tian had defeated Qin Jun three times, so I believe he would not let himself down these four times.

But things are not so simple.

As the saying goes: There are only three things.

Xing Tian had already won three battles against the generals of the Qin army, and it was impossible for Yue Fei to lose this fourth time even if he tried his best. What's more, with the Qin generals who came to support him, Yue Fei didn't have to fight himself to fight.

Liu Ji's excessive self-confidence caused Xing Tian's defeat. He knew that most of the responsibility was on him. In addition, Xing Tian had tried his best and suffered serious injuries. Naturally, he couldn't bear to blame Xing Tian.

Looking at Xing Tian, ​​who was wearing gauze, had many small wounds on his body, and looked embarrassed, Liu Ji personally stepped forward to help him up, and comforted him: "Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs, the general does not need to care..."

Liu Ji can only use this to comfort Xing Tian, ​​and he can't even say that Yue Fei is fighting with a wheel, and the more he wins, the more he wins, because the Qin army also fought with a wheel three times before, but Xing Tian also won all of them. bad.

Xing Tian is a relatively serious person with a straight temper. He knew that his defeat would definitely affect the morale of the coalition forces, so he blamed himself very much. It took Liu Ji a long time to appease Xing Tian.

After comforting Xing Tian, ​​Liu Ji hurriedly found Liu Xiu and Chen Ping for a discussion.

"I regret not listening to Brother Chu's words." Liu Ji said regretfully.

"My lord, since I made a big mistake, it's too late to regret it now. What I should consider is how to remedy it." Chen Ping said.

"Yes and yes and."

Hearing that the monarch and his ministers sang and sang, and then completely abandoned the relationship, the corners of Liu Xiu's mouth twitched slightly, with a helpless expression on his face.

If it weren't for the alliance between Shu and Chu, with Shu as the leader, he really wanted to slap Liu Ji directly.

True tmd hypocrisy.

Seeing that both of them were looking at him, Liu Xiu knew that they wanted to use his own words to tell him that they would hand over the job of offending others to him, which naturally made him very unhappy.

Liu Xiu is a person who takes the overall situation into consideration, so he suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart, and said indifferently: "Xing Tian's defeat will definitely affect the morale of our army. If the decisive battle continues as scheduled, the outcome will be unpredictable.

According to my opinion, the decisive battle should be cancelled, the offense should be replaced by defense, and the attack should be done later.

If the Qin army dared to attack, they would defend the city in order to consume the strength of the Qin army. "

"But...but..."

Liu Ji waited for a long time, but finally turned around. After sighing, he said with a lonely face: "Oh, that's the only way to go. Let's follow Chu Wangdi's plan."

Hearing this, Liu Xiu was so angry that he wanted to curse.

Mom sells batches, what is my own strategy?

What you want to express through my mouth is also your decision, and all the offending people are blamed on me?

Liu Xiu finally saw Liu Ji clearly, this guy is useless against Qin Jun, but he is good at plotting against his own people, but due to the overall situation, Liu Xiu still can't attack.

You know, this is not the first time, if Liu Xiu hadn't been patient enough, she would have fallen out with Liu Ji long ago.

At this moment, Liu Xiu desperately wanted to become stronger, so strong that neither Qin Hao nor Liu Ji could bully her.

No matter how much Liu Xiu could bear it, she couldn't bear Liu Ji's repeated use, so she gave a 'cold snort' in anger, turned her head and left, embarrassing Liu Ji who was talking.

As expected by Liu Xiu, rumors soon spread among the allied forces that the king of Chu had proposed a strategy of using defense as an offense, and this made the soldiers in the army complain a lot, and even a group of generals from the Chu army came to persuade Liu Xiu Take it back.

Liu Xiu cursed angrily: "The concubine does not conspire with each other." Then he kicked down the copybook and walked away, scaring all the generals to kneel on the ground.

Soon Liu Xiu's words reached Liu Ji's ears. After all, the barracks is so big, and Liu Xiu's voice is not low. It is normal for Liu Ji's people to hear it.

Hearing Liu Xiu's original words, a cold light flashed in Liu Ji's eyes. What he was most sensitive about was the identity of his illegitimate child, and Liu Xiu's words undoubtedly touched his back.

Chen Ping, who knew Liu Ji's nature well, felt bad in his heart when he saw the expression on Liu Ji's deputy. After repeated persuasion, Liu Ji dispelled the idea of ​​continuing to wear Liu Xiu's shoes.

"Hmph, I don't have the same knowledge as him." Liu Xiu snorted coldly.

Although Liu Ji suppressed Liu Xiu's reputation and consolidated his dominant position in the coalition forces, the relationship between him and Liu Xiu was cracked, and it was impossible to return to the previous harmony. watermelon.

The news that the Shu-Chu coalition forces retreated to the city without a fight quickly spread to the Qin army, which shocked and surprised both Yue Fei and Han Xin.

"Evidently the coalition forces were ready for a decisive battle before, so how can they just withdraw?" Han Xin asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Yue Fei smiled wryly and said, "Perhaps defeating Xing Tian made Liu Ji feel threatened, so the original decisive battle was canceled."

"How is this possible? A mere Xing Tian? Can Liu Ji give up a decisive battle with 20 people? He has such a high status?"

Han Xin was not from the south. Although he knew Xing Tian's prestige, he didn't know Xing Tian's position in Liu Ji's heart or among the Shu-Chu coalition forces.

Xing Tian, ​​who had defeated the Qin army three times in a row, was an Optimus Rock among the Shu-Chu coalition forces, a symbol of invincibility. Now that even he was defeated, the morale of the coalition forces would naturally be greatly frustrated.

Han Xin didn't know this, but Yue Fei, who had been defeated by Xing Tian, ​​knew it. After listening to Yue Fei's narration, Han Xin finally understood.

It was originally a happy event to defeat Xing Tian, ​​but it turned out to be self-defeating, causing Liu Ji to cancel the decisive battle, and it is hard to say whether it was good or bad.

"Governor, what should we do now?" Jiang Song asked.

"What else can I do? Of course it's a siege."

Yue Yun said without hesitation, and then Yue Fei knocked his brains apart, and squatted down with his head in pain.

"Idiot, the siege fell into Liu Ji's plan."

"Then what should we do? Are we just wasting time with the enemy?" Yue Yun said with an aggrieved face.

"Of course not."

After saying that, Yue Fei pondered for a long time, a bright light flashed in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "If Liu Ji refuses to come out, then lead him out."

Hearing this, Han Xin's eyes were full of approval, and Yue Fei thought of going with him again. He is indeed a famous general in charge of guarding a state!
After Yue Fei discussed with Han Xin and others, they quickly finalized a strategy to lure the enemy.

There is Chen Ping as a military advisor in the Shu-Chu coalition army, the general strategy of luring the enemy will not work at all, maybe they will be ambushed by Chen Ping.

Therefore, Yue Fei and Han Xin's strategy to lure the enemy is a conspiracy. Even if they are found out, they will still follow the two people's ideas, but the risk of this strategy is a bit high.

Only then did Yue Fei and Han Xin finalize their plan to lure the enemy, but there was no fact yet, but the next move of the Shu-Chu coalition forces interrupted their deployment.

Both Yue Fei and Han Xin originally agreed that the allied forces of Shu and Chu would concentrate in Jiangling City. After all, Jiangling was the city with the strongest defense in Nanjun.

But beyond Yue Han's expectation, the allied forces of Shu and Chu did not gather in Jiangling City, but divided their forces.

Liu Xiu actually led the Chu army to leave Jiangling City, and was in charge of stationing Huarong, Zhouling, and Biguo in the northeast of Jiangling. He also ordered Ma Yuan, Wei Zhang, and Cen Peng to guard the three counties. .

After hearing the news, both Yue Fei and Han Xin were stunned first, and then showed ecstasy.

"Liu Xiu and Liu Ji are breaking up." Yue Fei said happily.

"That's right, otherwise Liu Xiu would never have led the army to leave Jiangling." Han Xin nodded.

If Liu Xiu and Liu Ji are united, even Yue Fei and Han Xin will find it difficult, but if they are separated, the difficulty of defeating them will be greatly reduced.

At this moment, Lin Xiangru frowned and said, "Could this be a trap?"

After saying this, Yue Fei and Han Xin were stunned again and fell into deep thought.

"Both Liu Xiu and Liu Ji are not ignorant of the general situation. It should be impossible to turn their faces at such a critical moment. This may be Chen Ping's plan." Lin Xiangru said again.

Yue Fei nodded in agreement. He felt that Lin Xiangru's words made sense, so he said: "This possibility is very high, we must be cautious."

Yue Fei didn't know if Liu Xiu and Liu Ji had really broken up, and wanted to ask Gao Yao for proof, but he was afraid that Gao Yao's identity would be exposed.

While Yue Fei and others were still discussing the division of troops between Erliu and Liu, the Shu army in Jiangling City also divided their troops.

Liu Ji ordered Zhou Bo, Xia Houying, Cao Can and others to lead troops to garrison the north of Jiangling and Dangyang, Pangguo, Bianxian, Yicheng and other counties in the south of Xiangyang, and sent heavy troops to guard the important towns of Zhijiang and Yiling to prevent grain Daohe's way back to Yizhou was attacked by the Qin army.

This operation of the Shu-Chu coalition forces is no longer switching from offense to defense, but replacing offense with defense. It means to take root in Jingbei and consume the Qin army.

The Shu-Chu Allied Forces distributed their forces in Nanjun and the northern parts of Xiangyang. In this way, Jiangling's defense was reduced, but its control over Jingbei was strengthened.

Originally, if the Qin army wanted to recapture Jingbei, they only needed to defeat the Shu-Chu coalition forces and take back the city of Jiangling. But now they are attacking city by city.

In today's situation, it doesn't make much sense to talk about whether the two Lius have a quarrel. Yue Fei has to change his strategy.

Although the original strategy of luring the enemy can be used, the effect has been greatly reduced. After all, the coalition forces have been dispersed into several groups. Even if one can be lured to destroy it, it will only cut off one finger and cannot cut off both hands directly.

In the end, Yue Fei still decided to implement the strategy of luring the enemy. After all, it is better to cut off one finger than to keep one finger. First, further weaken the strength of the coalition forces, and how to fight the following battles?Yue Fei already had a plan in mind.

Just when Yue Fei and Han Xin were about to set up a scheme to lure some of the Shu-Chu allied forces out of the city to encircle and annihilate them, the battle situation in Youzhou in the north underwent an astonishing change.

Right in Beiping County, Qin Hao personally led an army of 26 to confront Nurhachi's 32 army. ,

Qin and Qing had a total of 58 troops, but they were squeezed into the group of Youbeiping County. If Youbeiping County hadn't been so vast and sparsely populated, it might not have been able to accommodate the two sides to fight.

Although the number of the Qin army is smaller than that of the Qing army, it is superior in that it is well-equipped and well-trained. In addition, there are so many strong generals in the army. wind.

Before the reinforcements arrived, the Qin army was on the defensive in Youbeiping, but as all the reinforcements from the rear arrived, the 26 Qin army immediately counterattacked.

Nurhachi originally meant that even if the reinforcements from the Qin army arrived, the number of them would still be much smaller than that of the Qing army, so they should still be on the defensive, so as to consume the Qing's food and grass, and at the same time buy time for Wei Qing in the rear to rectify and surrender.

But Nurhachi never expected that Qin Hao would play cards so unreasonably. After the 26 troops arrived, he couldn't wait to change his strategy and switch from defense to offense. your gesture.

For this, Nurhachi was very angry. He felt that he was underestimated, and thought that Qin Hao didn't pay enough attention to him.

You, Qin Hao, have an army of 26, and you want to defeat me with 32?Temujin is not as crazy as you.

Nurhachi subconsciously ignored that Temujin had more troops than him, but he was still defeated by Qin Hao, and the grass on the grave was three feet away.

What Nurhachi didn't know was that Qin Hao attached great importance to him, the Qing Taizu, and didn't mean to despise him at all, otherwise he wouldn't have used 26 elites, and transferred all the elites of the Qin Army in Hebei.

The reason why Qin Hao turned from defense to offense was because the fighter had arrived.

The Qing army was eager to capture the two counties in the west of Youbeiping, so as to open up the passage into Youzhou. Now the Qin army took the initiative to attack, which hit Nurhachi's arms.

Facing the counterattack of the Qin army, the Qing army refused to show weakness at all, and responded vigorously.

Qin Hao didn't adopt any strategy, as if he wanted to use 26 troops to defeat the 32 troops of the Qing Dynasty head-on.

The two armies fought fiercely in Youbeiping, and fought several times every day. Almost every inch of this land had traces of the Allied forces fighting.

At the beginning of the war, Qin Hao first adopted the strategy of fighting generals to attack the morale of the Qing army, but he was also worried that the generals he sent would be too strong, which would frighten Nurhachi from going out to fight, and the weaker ones might not be sure to win.

After sending Sun Lingming, Lu Bu and other candidates, Qin Hao decided to send Jia Fu to the Qing camp to challenge, because Jia Fu had beheaded Temujin.

For a general who had killed a foreign emperor to provoke another foreign emperor, this was an invisible humiliation to Nurhachi.

Although Nurhachi saw Qin Hao's sinister intentions, he still couldn't help being irritated, so he sent generals to fight Jia Fu, and still used the wheel to fight.

Xing Tian was fought by Qin generals in Jingbei, and Jia Fu also suffered the same fate as Xing Tian, ​​and was besieged by a group of Manchu generals in Youbeiping.
