Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2627: Occupying Hanzhong, the princes are shocked

With Li Yuanba's full blow, even Li Cunxiao would be injured, let alone Ma Shanwei.

Li Yuanba's hammer not only shattered Ma Shanwei's armor, heart guard, inner armor, and even his internal organs.

Ma Shanwei, who turned into a parabola, vomited blood crazily in mid-air, and also spit out a lot of broken internal organs, and then hit the ground heavily, but he still didn't die immediately, but obviously he was not far from death.

Looking at Li Yuanba who was striding forward, Ma Shanwei, who was so injured that he couldn't even move, said angrily, "I'm sorry."

When he said this, Ma Shanwei seemed to be playing a slideshow in his mind, quickly recalling his short life.

Just because of a little kindness, he mistakenly thought Wang Mang was a hero, and followed Wang Mang to help the evildoers.

After being captured alive by the Qin army in the Hebei War, he already had the idea of ​​surrendering to Qin, but was rescued by Yuan Tiangang who was robbed of the prison.

Fudged by Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng, he, who was not very strong-willed, took refuge in Li Tang in a daze.

But in a few years Li Tang was also destroyed, and he went around a lot, but was captured by the Qin army again, and finally surrendered to Daqin as if resigned to his fate.

After surrendering to Qin, Ma Shanwei discovered that what Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng said, that he had fought against the Qin army many times and could not be reused, and that the surrendered general was discriminated against within the Qin army, etc., were all deceitful nonsense. .

Ma Shanwei also regretted this very much. He regretted that he was not firm in his will, and he listened to the nonsense of Yuan and Li, so that he wasted half his life, but he was still reduced to a general.

If he had surrendered after the Battle of Hebei, and if he survived until the founding of the Qin Dynasty with his ability, even if he was not a marquis, he should still have a place among the earls and viscounts.

such a pity.

But just when Ma Shanwei let go of his grievances and was about to show his hands in Daqin, he encountered Li Yuanba in a chasing battle that must be won.

Thinking of this, Ma Shanwei didn't know whether it was God deliberately fooling him, or punishing him for his stupidity and unsteadiness.

A martial artist of Li Yuanba's level has all five senses extremely sharp. He can even easily hear the heartbeat of an enemy [-] meters away. It is not difficult to hear Ma Shanwei's murmur.

"Are you regretting being a traitor now? It's too late." Li Yuanba said coldly.

Ma Shanwei squinted at Li Yuanba, and said weakly: "I regret it, no, come to Qin earlier."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Shanwei spat out another big mouthful of black blood, in which there were still many internal organs.

He knew that he was going to die, but he still endured the pain and said with difficulty: "Every one of you in the Li family has no conscience. Back then, I was so blind that I would go to Li Shimin..."

Before Ma Shanwei finished speaking, he was hit on the top by the furious Li Yuanba Jingua, his head was blown off, and his brains were scattered all over the ground.

After killing Ma Shanwei, the anger in Li Yuanba's heart has also decreased a lot, but his eyes are still full of hatred. After all, he wants to take revenge on Da Qin, and Ma Shanwei is just the beginning.

Li Yuanba's eyes fell on his slightly trembling left hand, which was obviously slightly thinner than his right hand.

This unicorn arm didn't belong to him in the first place, but was cut off from Daqin's great master, Bu Jingyun, and then attached to himself.

Li Yuanba thought that even if this arm was connected, it could only be used for the most basic life, but he didn't expect that after he opened the Sanjiao Entrance and the meridians of the arm and body were completely connected, as time went by, what this arm could do The carrying power is getting stronger and stronger.

This also gave Li Yuanba a kind of hope in his heart, thinking that he might still have a chance to return to the top.

But after this battle, Li Yuanba's expectations were as great as his disappointment.

"Sure enough, no matter how well other people's arms fit, they are still not as good as your own."

Li Yuanba whispered to himself, the unicorn arm could not carry 100% of his strength, perhaps refining Qi could make him continue to grow stronger.

However, his talent for qi refining is not as good as his talent for body training, and he doesn't know if this road of qi refining can bring him back to the top.

The strength of the Qin army's flanks was not many, only [-] cavalry, and it was mainly maintained by the three gods of war.

But now the three war gods, one dead and two wounded, relying on only [-] cavalry, it is naturally impossible to stop Li Siyuan's [-] army, so the flanks were quickly defeated by Li Siyuan's troops.

After receiving the news that the flank was defeated and Ma Shanwei died in battle, Yang Jian was naturally shocked. Although the victory was close at hand, he had to choose to retreat, otherwise he might face the end of annihilation of the entire army.

In order to stop the loss in time and minimize the loss, Yang Jian could only order to retreat. Fortunately, all the cavalry of the Qin army would be very easy to escape if they didn't get entangled with the Shu army.

As for the Shu army, under the onslaught of the Qin army, those who had been killed were on the verge of fear. The Qin army is now taking the initiative to retreat. They are too happy to be reborn after the catastrophe, so how dare they pester them endlessly?
Seeing that the Shu army did not stop the Qin army and let the Qin army withdraw so easily, Li Siyuan was naturally very angry, but after thinking about it carefully, he also wanted to understand the situation of the Shu army.

For the Shu army, as long as they don't withdraw to Dingjun Mountain, it will always be unsafe, so the top priority is not to chase down the Qin army, but to withdraw to Dingjun Mountain first.

However, although the Qin army was defeated, it did not mean that it would withdraw. After all, the Qin army still had the power to fight again.

If the Qin army stayed away from the main army and adopted guerrilla tactics, as soon as the Shu army retreated, they would rush forward and bite a few bites, and no one could stand it.

Li Siyuan hurriedly went to meet up with Shen Shiqi, and after the two sides made a total decision, they decided to send all the cavalry to pursue. This move was not to kill the Qin army, but to force the Qin army to retreat completely.

As Li Siyuan expected, although Yang Jian gave the order to retreat, he did not retreat completely. Instead, he was going to retreat ten miles away to rest and wait for an opportunity to fight again. After all, the Qin army still had the strength to fight again.

But when he saw the cavalry of the Shu army and Li Siyuan army chasing them back, Yang Jian knew that he had no chance, so he could only order to withdraw to Nanzheng.

In order to prevent further accidents and ensure that the troops in the rear could withdraw, Yang Jian and Xuanyuan personally stayed behind, and because of this, they encountered Li Yuanba who came to pursue them.

After the two looked at each other from a distance, they couldn't help but be speechless. After all, during the time Li Tang worked together, the relationship between the two was still good.

Yang Jian was the first to break the silence, and said indifferently, "What? Don't you accuse me of betraying Li Tang?"

As soon as this remark came out, Li Yuanba didn't know how to reply.

Among the Tang officials who rebelled against Tang and surrendered to Qin, he could only blame Yang Jian, because Yang Jian had nothing to do to Li Tang. On the contrary, it was his second brother Li Shimin who killed the Yang family.

Seeing that Li Yuanba was silent, Yang Jian couldn't continue to exchange ideas with him, so he rode his horse and started a fight with Li Yuanba.

This battle didn't last long. Seeing that all his soldiers had withdrawn, Yang Jian also took the initiative to end the battle. After all, with Liu Er around, it was unrealistic to kill Li Yuanba, and his purpose was only to test Li Yuanba's depth. It is natural to withdraw.

After Yang Jian withdrew to Nanzheng, he immediately reported Li Yuanba's affairs to Li Jing.

Li Jing also attached great importance to this, and asked with a serious face: "General Yang Jian, how does the current Li Yuanba compare to you?"

After Yang Jian hesitated for a while, he said in a deep voice, "I'm better than him, but if I want to win, I'm afraid it will take four hundred rounds."

Hearing this, Li Jing already had a rough estimate of Li Yuanba's strength in his heart.

With Li Yuanba attached to his left arm, even if he hasn't returned to his peak, only Li Cunxiao, Yang Jian, Jiang Song, and Kong Xuan in the Qin army can defeat him. The other generals will only end up like Ma Shanwei when they meet him. .

"Li Tangke was destroyed by the Kingdom of Shu. Will Li Yuanba submit to the Kingdom of Shu?"

Li Jing continued to ask, after all, if Li Yuanba was on the side of the Shu Kingdom, the high-end combat power of the Yongliang Qin Army would not be enough, and he would also apply to the imperial court for additional strong generals to come to support him.

"I don't know about this last general, but Li Shimin died at the hands of our army, and Li Yuanba and Li Shimin have the deepest relationship. If you think about it, he must hate me even more." Yang Jian replied.

Hearing Yang Jian's words, although Li Jing was still not sure, he was ready to use this as an excuse to ask the imperial court to send a strong general to the Yongliang Army.

Which famous general doesn't want to have a lot of strong generals under his command, Li Jing naturally does the same, and although he already has strong generals such as Yang Jian, Xuanyuan, and Long Qi under his command, he obviously wants more strong generals.

And even if Li Cunxiao can't be won this time, at least one or two must be won among Jiang Song, Yuwen Chengdu, Lu Bu, and Gao Chong.

Strong generals are scarce and sought-after resources, and all the major military regions are vying for them. Without the threat of Li Yuanba, Li Jing may not necessarily compete for other military regions. After all, there are already a lot of fierce generals in Yongliang Military Region.

Just as the Qin army was sweeping the battlefield and counting the results of the battle, the Shu army also retreated to Dingjun Mountain, but there were only [-] troops left.

The 300 decoys that attracted the Qin army's attention were defeated by Kang Anyu's [-] iron tools, and only nearly [-] people fled back to Jiange.

As for Shen Shiqi's side, more than [-] soldiers were killed in battle.

As for the casualties of Li Siyuan's army, they were naturally much smaller, with only a thousand soldiers lost.

But after the Shu army cleaned the battlefield, they only found [-] corpses of the Qin army.

In other words, although Yang Jian's pursuit failed this time, he only lost [-] horses, but he caused [-] losses to the Shu army.

This is just the pursuit of this battle, and the greater result is Nanzheng, but it has not been fully counted.

After Wang Jian received the news of the capture of Nanzheng, he also accelerated the attack on Wubao in various places, and at the same time sent people to lobby the rest of the counties to surrender.

The rest of the counties that had not yet been conquered did not make any resistance after learning the news of the fall of Nanzheng. Just new army.

On the contrary, the Shu army in Wubao did not believe the news of Nanzheng's fall, and still chose to resist.

For this kind of diehard Shu Han faction, Wang Jian naturally sent them to the west.

Soon, the results of Nanzheng's offensive and defensive battles were also counted.

Li Jing and Han Xin used [-] Qin troops as the attacking side, while the Shu army had [-] defenders, [-] young and strong, and more than [-] civilians to assist in defending the city, but they still failed to stop the Qin army's offensive.

In this battle, the Qin army killed a total of [-] Shu troops, of which [-] were the main force of the Shu army, [-] were young and strong, and [-] were captured, of which [-] were the main force of the Shu army and [-] were strong men.

The Qin army had achieved such great results, and naturally paid a very painful price.

After the war, after an inventory, the Qin army suffered [-] casualties, of which [-] were directly killed in battle, and as many as [-] were seriously injured.

Among them, [-] soldiers were able to return to the army after being cured, while as many as [-] were incurable and disabled soldiers.

In other words, the Qin army lost a total of [-] troops in this battle.

As the attacker, the Qin army had fewer deaths than the Shu army. On the surface, it seemed that the Qin army had made a profit, but in fact it was still a small loss.

After all, the Qin army is all elite, and the Shu army consumes many veterans of the Qin army with only the lightness and strength of Hanzhong, which is naturally very uneconomical.

Although Li Jing's commander-in-chief attributes are high, in this kind of siege battle, there is not much room to play, so casualties are inevitable.

These casualties are also the price that has to be paid for a quick victory, otherwise Hanzhong's light and strong will really be consumed by the Shu army.

Although the Qin Army had captured Nanzheng City, its strength had dropped to [-], but Li Jing and Han Xin didn't care. After all, the Qin Army had just expanded its army, and there were enough troops in the rear.

Li Jing had already dispatched [-] troops from Yongzhou, but he was still on the way and failed to catch up with this battle. Nanzheng had already been defeated by him, so he was not worried about the strength of the troops.

After Li Jing heard the news that Li Siyuan and the Shu army were frequently mobilized, he immediately led an army of [-] troops to Dingjun Mountain without completely stabilizing the situation in Nanzheng.

The Shu army voluntarily gave up Dingjun Mountain, and all retreated into the Jiange. After all, Nanzheng was breached, which meant that Hanzhong fell completely, and there was no point in defending Dingjun Mountain.

After Li Jing left [-] defenders at Dingjun Mountain, he continued to lead his troops straight to Li Siyuan's two western counties. As a result, Li Siyuan also fled westward to Haizhou, leaving only two empty cities for the Qin army.

So far, Hanzhong County has completely fallen into the hands of Qin Jun.

The four countries of Sui, Wei, Song, and Ming were shocked when they learned that the Qin army would soon occupy Hanzhong.

After all, if Hanzhong is in the hands of the Qin army, no matter whether it is to attack the Central Plains to the east or to pacify Liangzhou to the west, there will be no worries.
