Chapter 2646: The wind rises from Yingzhou, the three armies defeat Ming

For Daqin, the easiest country to destroy among the Three Kingdoms in the Central Plains is actually the Wei State, and the hardest nut to crack is the Ming State.

After all, the state of Wei is flat, except for a few fortified cities, there is almost no danger to defend. The Great Qin cavalry can gallop at will, and many people in the state of Wei have a heart for Great Qin.

Although Cao Cao's ability to govern the country is strong, the methods he uses are really not clean and too unscrupulous, so not all the people of Wei State support Cao Cao.

But the Ming Dynasty was different. Zhu Di carried out Zhu Yuanzhang's policies. Even if he had to compromise with the Qi Department, it did not harm the interests of the people at the bottom.

The people of the Ming Dynasty loved Zhu Di very much. It can be said that they were a family of soldiers and civilians, and they were extremely united internally, so they were able to repel the Wei and Song coalition forces three times.

Therefore, for Daqin, if the Ming Dynasty is destroyed first, even if the three armies go out together, it will definitely take a long time.

But it’s different to destroy Wei first. As long as several important strongholds of Wei State are broken, the Great Qin cavalry can gallop freely in Wei State, divide Wei State into several pieces, divide them into pieces, and soon destroy them. country.

Therefore, the best route to destroy the Three Kingdoms in the Central Plains is actually to destroy the Wei State first, then the Song State, and finally the Ming State.

Daqin's dispatch of land and water armies to attack Ming was just a bait. The real purpose was to force Wei and Song to rebel against the alliance, so that they could openly declare war on Zeng Jin's allies.

Once Cao Wei and Zhao Song participate in the war, Daqin will also dispatch four armies to attack Wei and Song from the four directions of Hulaoguan, Weijun, Nanyang, and Zhangling at the same time, and three of them will be aimed at Cao Wei. Nei first destroy Cao Wei.

As long as it can be destroyed first, or if Cao Wei is forced to surrender, as long as the Qin army does not make major mistakes in the future, this battle can basically be declared a victory. It is only a matter of time before the Song and Ming Dynasties are destroyed.

Of course, although the plan to destroy the Sui Dynasty is within this battle plan, it has little connection with the Eastern Front. It mainly depends on the reaction of the Sui State, and then Daqin will strike later.

However, no matter what kind of reaction the Sui State made, it would not affect Daqin's plan to destroy the Three Kingdoms of the Central Plains.

"Your Majesty, the Black Ice Terrace Yingzhou branch has recently obtained some important information. The forces of the Wei, Song and Ming Dynasties in Yingzhou have been in frequent contact with Toyotomi Hideyoshi recently.

Weichen speculates that once war is launched against any of the three countries in the Central Plains, our country's territory in Yingzhou is likely to be besieged by multiple parties. "Guo Jiahui reported.

"The Three Kingdoms of the Central Plains wants to use Yingzhou as a breakthrough point."

Ying Hao showed a look of difference. He had already guessed that Cao Cao, Zhao Kuangyin, and Zhu Di would not be captured without a fight, but he did not expect that they would use Yingzhou as a breakthrough.

Even if Daqin loses all his territory in Yingzhou, it won't have much impact on his overall strength.

On the contrary, even if the Three Kingdoms of the Central Plains get Yingzhou, they will not get much improvement in the short term, unless Yingzhou is squeezed out, but this will obviously be unanimously opposed by the local forces in Yingzhou.

Cao Cao, Zhao Kuangyin, and Zhu Di are obviously ruthless people, and they know the truth that if the skin is not attached to the hair, there is no point in holding the territory of Yingzhou if the territory of the Central Plains cannot be defended. Millions of barbarians, in exchange for resources in order to keep the country under the iron heel of the Great Qin.

"How many troops does my Great Qin have in Yingzhou now? If the Wei, Song, Ming and Ming forces unite with Yingzhou's local forces to attack, can they hold the territory of Yingzhou?" Ying Hao asked.

"Your Majesty, my Great Qin now has a total of [-] troops stationed in Yingzhou, including [-] infantry and [-] navy.

In addition, Uesugi, Tachibana and other Yingzhou Xinqin forces who are attached to our Great Qin still have [-] Qin Xiejun available, and they can continue to expand their army at any time.

Once the Wei, Song and Ming allied forces come to invade, with this 17 army, it may not be enough to be aggressive, but it is enough to protect itself. "Wang Menghui reported.

Among the 155 garrisons in Yingzhou, in addition to the [-] navy troops, the [-] infantry troops were not included in the [-] million total troops of the Great Qin Dynasty.

After all, these 150 troops will be stationed in Yingzhou for a long time. Either they have already married and had children there, or even their family members have moved there. In the army of ten thousand.

If you count the 161 garrisons in Yingzhou and the [-] garrisons in Luzon, the total strength of Daqin is actually [-] million, and this is not counting the [-] Qin Xiejun in Yingzhou.

Wang Meng said that self-protection was enough, so Ying Hao naturally didn't have to worry too much, but Liu Bowen said at this time: "Your Majesty, in the plan of attacking Ming by the three armies of the water and land, the navy will be led by Governor Zhou Yu.

Governor Zhou Yu led the Allied Forces of the Four Kingdoms to destroy the Wa Kingdom, and his prestige in Yingzhou was extremely high. If he led the Third Route Army to attack Ming, he would have to leave Yingzhou temporarily.

Once the governor Zhou Yu left, Qin Zheng's governor alone might not be able to suppress the local forces in Yingzhou, and there was no guarantee that they would not have other thoughts.

Therefore, Bowen believes that the candidate for the commander-in-chief of the Third Route Army should be replaced by someone else, and it will be safer to leave the governor Zhou Yu to continue to sit in Yingzhou. "

Liu Bowen's words are on point, but after all, the 15 Qin Army navy has just been built and has very little combat experience. Except for Zhou Yu, the commander of the navy, there is no other sailor who is qualified to directly lead the [-] navy .

So, should Zhou Yu be replaced or not?
Ying Hao couldn't help but feel a little bit in a dilemma.

Don't let Zhou Yu lead the [-] navy in the third route, because no other qualified commander of the navy can be found.

Let Zhou Yu lead the army to defeat Ming, and Yingzhou will be unstable again.

Although Qin Zheng, governor of Yingzhou, has a high status, he is still a civil servant. Without Zhou Yu, he might not be able to control the local forces in Yingzhou by himself.

But after thinking about it, Ying Hao decided not to replace Zhou Yu. After all, Zhou Yu's position in the navy cannot be replaced, but his position in Yingzhou can be replaced.

"I have decided that Zhou Yu will still lead the Third Route Army to attack Ming, but the position of the governor of Yingzhou will be replaced by Lieutenant General Wang Jian of the Yongliang Army."

Wang Jian was able to be promoted to lieutenant general so quickly, mainly because of his achievements in exterminating the Japanese. He made great contributions in the first battle of exterminating the Japanese. The governor of the state and the people who guarded Yingzhou.

As for the other person, it was naturally Wu Qi.

Wu Qi was actually more suitable than Wang Jian. He married Lihua Daoxue's daughter, and the local forces in Yingzhou would naturally be closer to him, but Wu Qi would still be useful in the next battle, so naturally he couldn't be allowed to go to Yingzhou.

"In addition to Wang Jian, the three generals Di Qing, Zhang Han, Zhou Yafu, and Gan Mao were also transferred to Yingzhou to serve in order to ensure nothing goes wrong."

Although Wang Jian is a famous general of Commander 102, he is alone after all, and the opponent he will face this time will be the Three Kingdoms of Wei, Song and Ming, as well as Toyotomi Hideyoshi and other local forces in Yingzhou.

At the same time, with such a right opponent, with Wang Jian's ability, it may not be difficult to defend Yingzhou, but if he wants to counterattack, he will inevitably be unable to do so.

That's why Ying Hao sent the three generals Di Qing, Zhang Han, and Zhou Yafu to Wang Jian as helpers. After all, what he wanted was never to defend Yingzhou, but to unify Yingzhou.

Commander Di Qing is 96, Commander Zhang Han is 97, and Commander Zhou Yafu is 96. These three generals can be Wang Jian's right-hand man, and Commander Gan Mao is 96 and has an intelligence of 97. He can serve as Wang Jian's think tank.

In addition, the commander-in-chief 96 Qin Zheng, Susanoo and Oyama Tsumi, the two war gods, as well as local famous generals in Yingzhou such as Uesugi Kenshin and Tachibana Doxue.

With Wang Jian's ability, maybe he can really dominate Yingzhou.

----------

The actions of Daqin in dispatching troops and furiously mobilizing horses have frightened the four countries of Wei, Song, Ming, and Sui. After all, they all know that Daqin's next target must be among the four of them, but they didn't expect it Daqin's appetite would be so great that he could swallow the four kingdoms at once.

The Wei and Song Dynasties sent envoys to Qin one after another, asking about the intention of Qin to transfer troops, but all they got was a normal change of defense, this kind of response to fool a fool.

The relationship between the Ming and Sui Dynasties and Daqin was not good, and they did not dare to send envoys to Daqin, so they all sent more defenders to the border.

At the same time, the Ming sent envoys to contact Wei and Song, and the Sui contacted Tubo. Once they found that the Qin army was targeting them, they immediately joined forces to fight against the Qin army.

Shenwu four years, April [-]th.

The 20 troops from You, Bing, and He prefectures of Daqin arrived in Hebei and Qing prefectures smoothly.

Three days later, Daqin listed the five major crimes committed by Zhu Di, the king of Ming, and formally declared war on the kingdom of Zhu Ming on this ground, and launched a three-way army to attack Ming.

The first road, 15 troops, the chief general: the governor of Qingzhou, Su Dingfang.

There are two more routes, one hundred thousand troops, the chief general: the governor of Jizhou, Zhuge Liang.

The third route, the [-] navy, the chief general: Zhou Yu, the commander of the navy.

Daqin dispatched a total of 33 troops this time, and the troops were divided into three groups to attack the Ming Kingdom, while declaring an army of 50 to the outside world.

All of a sudden, the whole world exploded, and countless people turned their attention to the Central Plains.

After all, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Da Qin sent troops this time not for the Ming Kingdom, but for the Three Kingdoms of the Central Plains.

Before the Great Qin sent troops to defeat the Ming Dynasty, three major wars had broken out in the Central Plains, and these three major wars all ended with Zhu Ming repelling the Wei-Song coalition forces.

But this time, the opponent Zhu Ming will face is no longer the Wei and Song allied forces who are at odds with each other, but the overlord of the princes and overlords, the Great Qin Empire.

After Zhu Ming's extreme military expansion, the country's total military strength was only 40, but troops had to be stationed in various cities. However, Daqin could mobilize 33 troops to attack Ming by only dispatching troops from Hebei and Qingzhou.

Obviously this is a war of unequal strength.

Daqin is much stronger than Zhu Ming. If Zhu Ming has no helper, it will be a matter of time before Daqin destroys the country. Will the Wei and Song Dynasties watch Zhu Ming be destroyed?Obviously impossible.

The two countries of Wei and Song were also very shocked after receiving the news that Daqin dispatched 33 troops to attack Ming. After all, based on the information they collected, the total strength of Daqin after the expansion of the army should be more than 100 million, at most not More than 120 million.

Therefore, if Daqin attacked the Central Plains first, then the first round of attack must be based on probing, and the dispatched force should be around 20.

The think tanks of the Wei and Song Dynasties are indeed powerful, and both countries have guessed correctly. The first round of Daqin's offensive was indeed based on probing.

After all, if Daqin is serious, then the main general of the second Qin army will not be Zhuge Liang, but the undefeated governor of Jizhou, Bai Qi.

However, 33 troops were dispatched just for probing. The offensive was so fierce that it could no longer be described as probing. This was obviously beyond the expectations of Wei, Song, and even Ming.

After hearing the news, King Zhu Di of the Ming Dynasty also knew that the garrison in the south of Qingzhou alone could not stop the attack of the 33 Qin army, so he immediately ordered Xu Da, the governor of the Ming Dynasty, to lead an army of [-], as well as Niu Mowang, Niu Mowang, and Niu Mo. Ruyi, Zhang Guiba, Zhang Guihou and other generals went north to support generals such as Wang Yanzhang and Xia Luqi who guarded the northern line, and took over all the military power in the northern part of the Ming Dynasty.

In addition to sending Xu Da to the north to preside over the overall situation, Zhu Di himself also dispatched troops to the rear to raise food and grass, and at the same time sent envoys to Xuchang and Shouchun to ask Wei and Song for help.

Wei Guo, Xuchang.

"My lord, there are only two possibilities for Daqin to directly dispatch an army of 33 to defeat Ming."

Fan Li, Cao Wei's military advisor, had a solemn expression on his face, and said in a deep voice, "First, Daqin is not going to test it out, but will directly fight to the death with our Three Kingdoms.

The second is that we miscalculated the number of Daqin's military expansion. The total strength of Daqin's army after this expansion is far more than 100 million, and it may really reach 120 million, or even 130 million. "

Hearing this, Cao Cao's face turned cold, because no matter which one it is, it is not good news for the Three Kingdoms of the Central Plains.

Of course, Sui was an exception.

After learning the news that Great Qin had first declared war on the Ming Dynasty, the entire Sui Kingdom breathed a sigh of relief. Obviously, they did not think that Great Qin would go to war against Wei, Song, Ming and Sui at the same time, but Great Qin did the opposite.
