Infinite war begins with Cao thief.

Chapter 360 Offensive and defensive changes
"Water... water is too cold..."

Qian Qianyi struggled desperately after falling into the Han River.

The Han River in midsummer was still too cold for him.

Unfortunately, no one wanted to save him.

Although Qian Qianyi's strategy achieved certain results, he underestimated the reaction speed of Dayu's shark troops and navy.

Jiang Qin, who was deceived, personally led the pursuit and pursued the fleeing Qin army with an attitude of eliminating all evil.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, some clever War Agents took advantage of the darkness to go ashore to try their luck. The War Agents who still placed their hope on the ship were eventually caught up by Jiang Qin's troops and the Shark Troops, and were strangled.

In this battle, there will be no one left among those who belong to the force that is the agent of the war.

Shark, who had the most fun in this battle, basically felt that his background had improved to a certain extent.

Just as Jingshan, who was a space soldier, killed Dong Zhuo, Tong Guan and others and finally succeeded in breaking through the boundary, Shark and these space soldiers have broken through the boundary after being inhumanely transformed by Fazheng and others and given by Hou Xin; After arriving in this world, he was on the front line in almost every water battle. Now after killing many war agents or the generals who belong to war agents, his qualifications have finally improved qualitatively again.

This kind of leap is not like an immediate breakthrough, but after this battle, they finally broke through the shackles of the space soldiers or the guards of General Dian Wei, and became a new race that perfectly integrated their own abilities, and it was the kind of race that everyone They are all at least an elite race of small generals.

Before this, because they were just transformed space soldiers, they couldn't even reproduce, but now they can reproduce normally.

Compared with the original appearance, the difference is no less than the difference between Kisame Kisaki and the shark summoned by Kisame Kisaki.

The war agent's troops suddenly betrayed and robbed all the ships to escape. This was no less than a bolt from the blue for the Qin army in Dengcheng.

Although Dengcheng was previously the core of defense and the forward base of the Southern Expedition, Dengcheng still had enough food and grass for the defenders to eat for half a year. After a series of events such as Wang Lu's defeat and the defection of the war agent's headquarters, this food and grass was enough. The defenders have been eating for more than a year, but the problem is that the morale of the Qin army is not enough to last that long.

The exhausted Wang Yue could only rely on his prestige and torture to maintain the morale of the army, but he was pessimistic about whether Dengcheng could be defended.

In sharp contrast to the Qin army, the morale of the Dayu army was high.

Although Yue Fei, Zhao Yun, and Zhang He's troops suffered heavy losses in this battle, they achieved even greater results.

The Dayu Army accomplished its strategic goals brilliantly, leaving only Deng City as a turtle in a jar.

At this time, what Zhuge Liang and others were looking forward to most was for the Qin Army's support troops to come quickly so that they could surround them and provide reinforcements.

However, after Bai Jie led the army to Nanyang, he stopped patrolling and had no intention of going south to support. Instead, he cooperated with Neishiteng and defeated the first part of Le Jin's army, forcing Le Jin's army to divide into multiple routes to attack the city and Taishi Ci's army, which was looting everywhere. soldiers.

It turned out that after the accident in Fancheng, Nei Shiteng and Bai Jie realized that Dengcheng could not be rescued.

Because if the army rescues Dengcheng, Nanyang's troops may be somewhat empty. Of course, the most important thing is the food supply problem.

If Bai Jie's main force goes south to support, Neishiteng cannot guarantee the food supply for Bai Jie's army.

There are too many cavalry in South Korea. Without caring about the lives of the cavalry, Nanyang County has been ruined in recent years. Coupled with this year's bad weather, Nanyang does not have much food reserves at all. This means that the Qin State It is necessary to maintain a grain road from Guanzhong to Nanyang and then to Dengcheng. Maintaining such a long grain road is also a problem.

Nei Shiteng had realized that Qin had made a fatal strategic mistake.

Back then, Meng Ao should not have attacked Wei first, but instead tried his best to destroy South Korea first.

When Meng Ao attacked Wei, it triggered Lord Xinling to return to Wei. Meng Ao was defeated by the five-nation coalition commanded by Lord Xinling. Since then, Qin Guodong's focus has been on Wei, which gave South Korea an opportunity to recuperate.

After that, Qin was held back by Zhao and Dayu, and did not destroy Han again. Recently, Meng Ao seized the opportunity to unite with Qi to destroy Wei. Although it seemed that he had destroyed a country, in fact, because South Korea was in the way, As a result, the area from Guanzhong of Qin State to the border with Qi State became a long and narrow strip, which could be cut off by Zhao and Han at any time.

That is to say, the Qin State has vigorously developed the Yellow River Navy in recent years. Relying on the Navy, it can ensure the connection between this region and mobilize troops. Otherwise, the situation in this area will be really dangerous.

【Damn Korea! 】

Nei Shiteng was furious at his incompetence.

Now anyone with a discerning eye can see that South Korea has been deeply bound to Dayu, and Taishi Ci and Lejin's troops are actual Dayu troops. But at this time, what can I do if I know?
The lack of intelligence caused Da Qin to miss the best opportunity from the beginning, but Da Yu made reasonable use of its own strengths and achieved a series of victories.

What Nei Shiteng wants to do most now is actually just to keep Nanyang.

To protect Nanyang, we can either go south to attack Yu State or eastward to attack South Korea.

What Nei Shiteng wants more is to wait until the Qin Dynasty calms down and has enough food and grass to first destroy South Korea at all costs and completely occupy the land of Han and Wei.

But his strategy was different from that of the Central Government of Qin, which wanted to destroy Zhao first.

There was nothing Neisteng could do about this.

Bai Jie's thoughts were similar to Nei Shiteng's.

Bai Jie is now the one who absolutely loves Zhao Ji. Of course, he is still far from returning home, but he is very obedient.

The secret order Zhao Ji gave him was also to ensure safe preservation. Nanyang could be abandoned if necessary. Bai Jie naturally knew what to do.

In fact, both Nei Shiteng and Bai Jie knew very well that they actually had a chance to rescue, which was to pretend to rescue, lure the Yu army from South Korea to attack, and then attack the Yu army from front to back to eat them.

But this is too risky. If one of them fails, they will be eaten by Yu Jun.

In short, both of them chose to play it safe.

Seeing that the enemy had made a safe choice, Zhuge Liang ordered Yue Fei's troops to go to Fancheng to rest and prepare for the continuation of the Northern Expedition. He ordered other generals to attack other cities in Nanjun. General Zhao Yun commanded 100,000 troops and marched into Fangling to threaten Shangyong; Zhang He With the cooperation of the navy, the troops went upstream along the Han River and made a gesture of attacking Xunduan Pass.

Xuguan was established by the Qin State to defend Chu from attacking Hanzhong along the Han River. It controlled the Han and Xun Waterways and played an important role in protecting the Hanzhong area and even Xianyang.

If you go up the Xun River and erode it, you can lead to Xianyang, the capital of Qin.

Eclipse, that is, the Ziwu Road, which will become famous in later generations.

Of course, Zhang He's troops were actually mainly feinting, in order to mobilize the Hanzhong army, not only to make the Hanzhong army unable to rescue Shangyong and Fangling, but also to further force the Hanzhong Qin army to take the initiative to retreat from Bazhong.

It is not a problem for the Qin army to be blocked in Jiange and Bazhong all the time.

Strategy has always been about affecting the whole body.

Zhuge Liang was cautious in using his troops. He would not easily send troops to continue the Northern Expedition without capturing Dengcheng, seizing other cities in Nanjun, and cutting off the possibility of the Qin army leaving Hanzhong to encircle the rear. Although this may have missed a certain opportunity, the victory lies in Robust enough.

However, Zhuge Liang's stability in this time and space is completely different from Zhuge Liang's stability in history.

The Shu Han in history could not withstand a big defeat, so it could only be stable, so "Zhuge Liang was cautious all his life"; but in this time and space, after such a long period of development, the national power of Yu has actually surpassed that of Qin, with many famous generals and legions. The formation of the Qin Dynasty made Dayu no less than or even surpass Qin in terms of the number of elites. Just like the Northern Expedition, Dayu actually had obvious advantages in all aspects. In this case, why take risks?

All I had to do was push it through, and I took the risk and was at a disadvantage!
Zhuge Liang's use of troops in this time and space is somewhat similar to Wang Jian's use of troops in history. He is as stable as an old dog and his country's strength is equal.

I'll just push him over. If you have the ability, fight me hard! If you have the ability, fight with me!

Come here.jpg
On the contrary, Wang Jian in this time and space was forced to start taking risks as soon as he debuted. The stable old dog in history became a cunning and cunning fox in this time and space.

Soldiers have no constant momentum, and water has no constant shape.

The same goes for famous generals.

The feint attack led by Zhang He and Jiang Qin succeeded in containing a large number of Hanzhong's troops, which made Hanzhong helpless to rescue Shangyong. After Zhao Yun captured Fangling, he quickly swept away the surrounding cities and surrounded Shangyong.

When Zhuge Liang launched the Northern Expedition, Bashu was not idle either.

Gao Shun's army, which was recharging its strength, sent troops again to attack Bazhong and Jiameng Pass of Qin State.

Although Gao Shun could not really launch a strong attack due to the terrain, it still put great pressure on the Qin army in Bazhong, Jiamengguan and other places.

The biggest problem for the Qin army in Hanzhong was actually the problem of food and grass.

From the Mengwu expedition to the final decisive battle between Bashu and Bashu, Hanzhong has always been an important granary for the Qin army in the direction of Bashu. The overdraft of civilian power was once again attacked by Wang Pingqi, and it has never been relieved. Now it must be maintained again. The large number of troops on the two defense lines from Nanzheng to Bazhong and Nanzheng to Jiange and the food and grass for the defenders of the Wubao Walled City in the mountains have reached their limit.

If it weren't for the Qiangxuan's crazy attacks on foreign tribes in the past two years, seizing grain, grass, and livestock, the two lines of defense of the Qin army would have been unable to support them long ago.

Now that Xun Pass is attacked by Dayu, Qiang Xian can only focus on the defense of Xun Pass. Once Xun Pass is lost, Dayu has the possibility of entering Xianyang, although it is almost impossible for the troops to enter Xianyang even if the erosion occurs. It is tantamount to seeking death, but the political impact it brings is disastrous, and Qiang Xian cannot help but ignore it.

Qiang Xian didn't even care about Shangyong and went to Xuguan to take charge. In this case, the defenders on the front lines of Bazhong and Jiange can only hope for good luck.

Lord Changping, who was guarding the Jiange to atone for his sins, realized that the situation was not good from the less and less rations being transported; Wang Heng, who was guarding Bazhong, also realized that the problem was serious.

In fact, both Changping Jun's and Wang Heng's troops still have about half a year's supply of rations, and the mountain fortress behind Wang Heng also has about half a year's supply of rations, but the accounts are not calculated that way.

If there is no new supply of food and grass for three months at most, the morale of the army will be in chaos.

Soon afterwards, Wang Heng received an order from Qiang Xian ordering his entire army to withdraw from Bazhong and Daxingdao lines with all rations and ordnance, leaving only a few villages on the northernmost side of Daxingdao, and his troops immediately supported Shangyong.

This order not only meant that Wang Jian's greatest achievements since entering Shu no longer existed, but more importantly, it made Wang Heng aware of the danger of the situation.

For fear of alarming Yu's army, Wang Heng did not even dare to destroy the city. He even evacuated the main force of Bazhong City overnight without notifying the defenders of several peripheral strongholds.

The Qin army guarding the outer strongholds only realized that something was wrong on the third day. Looking at the deserted Bazhong City, these popular scolds had no choice but to surrender to Dayu's army.

Knowing that the situation had changed, Wang Ping's troops cautiously began to pursue, only to find that the Qin army had really retreated. All the plank roads along the way were destroyed, and those that did not were damaged to a certain extent, and traps were set up in some areas. .

In the end, Wang Ping's troops did not catch up with Wang Heng's troops, and were blocked at the north exit of the main road by the fortifications set up by Wang Jian before. However, Wang Ping was very happy because he knew that the Qin army was really in trouble. .

When Dong Huang emerged from the underground tunnel and came to North Korea, Da Yu had already launched a full-scale strategic offensive against Da Qin.

Dayu met with Sanwu and other generals stationed in North Korea, as well as Lian Po, Jiang Wei, Zhong Hui, Deng Ai, Luo Xian, Du Yu, Huo Yi, Xia Houba and others, and approved the plan of annihilation proposed by Lian Po and others. Yan and his plan to destroy Donghu.

After that, Dong Huang went to Yingzhou, which was loyal to him.

After condolences to the wives and daughters of the "Sixth Heaven Demon King" and others, he returned to Haojing.

The first thing after returning to Haojing is to become a god.

Dong Huang is naturally Dong Huang Taiyi, Dongjun is Yanfei, Star Lord is Zhuge Liang, Yunzhongjun is Zhang Qiying, Soul Lord is Jia Xu, Hebo is Zhou Tai, and Xiangjun is Dong Huang's vest. Several other gods have not been sealed because there are no suitable characters.

Those members of the Yin Yang family have insufficient merit and somewhat lacking abilities, so they are not suitable for suddenly ascending to high positions.

The other civil and military officials who conferred priestly positions such as the Moon God always felt that something was wrong.

After all the miscellaneous matters are taken care of, the three years of King Qin's government are coming to an end.

In the last few months of the third year of the Qin Dynasty, no more fierce war broke out between Dayu and Daqin.

The only fierce battle was in the direction of Shangyong. Zhao Yun's troops fought fiercely with Wang Heng's troops. The demoralized Wang Heng's troops were slightly defeated and could only allow Zhao Yun's troops to surround Shangyong.

By the end of the third year of Qin Wangzheng's reign, Shangyong City surrendered.

In terms of the overall grand strategy, Dayu adopted Bai Qi's strategy of fighting the Changping War, which was to fight for attrition.

This made Qin feel very uncomfortable.

If the more than two thousand war agents had not been killed, the autumn harvest in Guanzhong would have been acceptable, but Qin really could not hold on.

What Qin wants wholeheartedly is to hold on until next year.

However, the four years of Qin Wangzheng's reign were a big pitfall for Qin.

At the beginning of the year, a mutiny broke out in Dengcheng, which had no hope of seeking help and had run out of supplies. The guard Wang Yue was killed and Dengcheng surrendered.

At this point, all Nanjun was merged into Dayu territory.

In April, there was a severe drought in Qin.

After a severe drought there will be great locusts.

In July, a plague broke out in the Qin State, where people were starving and dying everywhere.

Qin had no choice but to sell its officials and titles again and purchase grain from Qi, the only country with which it could speak.

The lack of food made Qin's military counterattack plan come to nothing again.

This severe drought and locust plague actually had a considerable impact on other countries, and even affected the grasslands for a time; and a major epidemic occurred in Qin State, which forced Dayu to close the country tightly for fear of contracting the plague.

The main task of the cavalry in Nanyang, South Korea and other places was to prevent Qin people from illegally crossing the border. Anyone who crosses the border will be killed without mercy, regardless of the reason.

Dayu knew that sending food to Qin at this time would only lead to Qin's army-first policy being given to the army, or it would be sold at a high price in the hands of the powerful, and would hardly reach the hands of the common people.

The greatest kindness of Dayu was to sign an armistice agreement with Qin, which stopped both sides and allowed Qin to purchase grain and grass from Qi.

Fortunately, half of the Qin population in Nanyang and other places had been robbed by Dayu, and Dayu could be considered a rescuer.

However, although Dong Huang has some benevolence as a woman, he also has the domineering behavior expected of a king.

Although Dayu did not fight against Qin, he had his hands free to deal with Qi.

With Qin being held back and unable to take care of itself, Qi will not have any reinforcements.

The reason for attacking Qi is also valid: Qi betrayed its promise and supported Qin.

Qi State is actually still at war with Zhao State.

Qi State did not want to give up the land in Hebei. After defeating Pang Nuan, Qi State felt that it was OK again and crossed the river to conquer the land in Hebei occupied by Zhao State.

In this land, the Qi State still had many troops. The main force of the Zhao State was busy rescuing Handan and did not pay attention to it. It was not until Meng Ao and Wang Jian withdrew their troops that the King of Zhao remembered this matter.

However, King Zhao at that time did not dare to let Li Mu leave, so he sent General Qing She to go. The result was very unsatisfactory.

King Zhao finally sent Li Mu over, but even Li Mu needed time to attack the city. For example, in Nanpi and other fortified cities that were heavily guarded by the Qi army, Li Mu had no good solution.

He can only let the space soldiers who serve as cannon fodder and agents of war fill the gap.

As a result, Qi general Tian Sheng, who defeated Pang Nuan and occupied the plain, crossed the river with his army at this time.

Li Mu keenly realized that this was a great opportunity to seize Nanpi.

He used the strategy of luring the enemy deep into the army and commanded his troops to lose consecutive battles. He asked Tian Sheng to drive to the vicinity of Nanpi, and then launched an ambush and won in one battle.

Tian Sheng died in battle, and the Nanpi defenders surrendered after losing hope.

At this point, Zhao State, which had suffered heavy losses of its elite in recent years, actually occupied the entire Hebei Province and most of the land of Youyan, and its territory was even wider than during the period of complete victory.

However, Zhao State, whose energy was restrained by Qi State and Qin State, did not notice that Yan State was completely destroyed by a group of people under the banner of North Korea. This group of people not only destroyed Yan State, but also subdued Lin Hu The Hu people, such as Donghu and Donghu, were eyeing the Youyan land of Zhao.

At this time, the focus of Zhao's court turned out to be whether to move the capital.

After so many things, King Zhao really didn't want to stay in Handan, a poor place. He wanted to move the capital to Jicheng.

Of course, the face-saving King Zhao did not want to give up Handan, but said that he would set Jicheng as the capital and then go to inspect the capital.

It was normal for countries in this era to have multiple capitals. The State of Chu was addicted to moving its capitals, and the State of Qi also had five capitals.

King Zhao even received the support of Song Ji in moving the capital this time.

Although Li Mu wrote a letter to express his interests, he could not change the situation in the court after leading the troops.

So, King Zhao happily took the harem and dignitaries to Jicheng.

Because of Li Mu's efforts, Qi's military strength was now at its lowest.

If you don’t take what God has given you, you will suffer the consequences.

Dayu's three-pronged attack on Qi, which had been prepared for a long time, officially kicked off the annihilation of Qi.
