Chapter 1276 Bai Qi fights against Yinshan

Chapter 1274: Bai Qi fights against Yinshan

In just five days, Huo Qubing and Zhuge Liang's two-pronged army conquered a total of seven small and medium-sized Yuanmeng tribes, slaughtered nearly 150,000 Yuanmeng herdsmen, and completely reduced two hundred miles of fertile pasture to scorched earth.

Huo Qubing actually couldn't bear to slaughter women and children, but he had to do this kind of thing. Seeing that Ran Min seemed to enjoy doing this kind of thing, he handed over the slaughter to Ran Min, which also inspired Ran Min to kill. God's effect of permanently increasing attributes.

【Ding dong, Ran Min's skill "Killing God" effect 3 is activated. When a certain number of foreigners are slaughtered, the attributes can be permanently improved. The more foreigners slaughtered, the higher the attribute value will be.

  Ran Min has killed 50,000 Yuanmeng aliens and will be rewarded with random attribute points and permanent intelligence +1. Ran Min's current basic intelligence is 75.

 The next time it reaches 100,000, this effect will be activated again. 】

The news that the Han army had left the fortress and was massacred on the grasslands was transmitted back to Longcheng, which completely shocked the Yuan and Mongolian officials, and also shocked Temujin who was far away in Zhenbeiguan.

 The total population of Yuan and Mongolia was only over three million, and in just five days, they lost one-twentieth of their total population.

If all the Han troops who entered the grassland are not wiped out as soon as possible, even if the Hetao is finally recaptured, Yuanmeng will not be able to recover in the short term.

Although Temujin was determined to wipe out the Han army as soon as possible, he also knew that most of the troops in Yuan and Mongolia were new soldiers. Even if they went to war, they would definitely not be able to match the elite Han army, and the remaining 100,000 elites needed to guard against the Manchu Qing Dynasty who was watching from the side. , can't move easily.

After considering the pros and cons, Temujin finally decided to transfer troops from the Hetao back to Longcheng. After all, if the Han army continued to wreak havoc, even if he captured the Hetao, the gains would outweigh the losses.

Temujin ordered the major tribes south of Longcheng to move north as soon as possible, and ordered reliable people to return to Longcheng to take charge. At the same time, Temujin chose to lead the army back to annihilate all the Han troops who entered the grassland.

 Temujin handed over the important task of controlling Dragon City to his most trusted Tou Lei. As for the important task of wiping out the Han army as soon as possible, Temujin finally chose Murong Ke.

Although Murong Ke had just lost a battle, in terms of ability, apart from Temujin, Murong Ke was definitely the most capable general in Yuanmeng, and only he could annihilate all the Han armies in the shortest time. .

After weighing the pros and cons, Temujin finally chose to let Murong Ke order 100,000 cavalry to return to the grassland, and be responsible for commanding all the troops in the country, advocating the encirclement and suppression of the Han army.

In this way, the 100,000 cavalrymen that Temujin had just transferred to Zhenbeiguan were led back to the grassland by Murong Ke before they even fought a single battle.

Although Murong Ke left Ningxia County, the Yuan army did not lose its backbone, because Temujin personally rushed over to take control of the overall situation, and his arrival also boosted Yuan Meng's sluggish morale.

With Murong Ke’s return, the battle situation in Hetao also became:

In Yinshan County, Murong Chui faced off against Li Jing and Yang Liulang. The Han army was at an absolute disadvantage and could be captured at any time;

In Ningxia County, Temujin faced off against Qin Hao and Wang Meng, and both sides were evenly matched;

After Temujin came to Ningxia to personally lead the army, although there were still constant conflicts between the two armies, there were much fewer conflicts than when Murong Ke was there.

But everyone knows that Temujin is just waiting for the opportunity.

After the 100,000 cavalrymen at Zhenbeiguan were transferred away, Yuan and Meng lost their strength advantage again, and Temujin was not absolutely sure of victory.

 So, Temujin was waiting for Murong Chui to take Yinshan City, waiting for Murong Ke to wipe out the Han army, and then concentrate his forces to completely crush the Han army and sweep the world.

 This time Temujin was cautious and gave Qin Hao a chance, and the drawings passed back by Yang Silang could finally be put to use.

"Bai Qi, I order you to lead an army of 20,000 cavalry and 30,000 infantry, a total of 50,000 infantry and cavalry, to rescue Yinshan City." As he spoke, Qin Hao handed Bai Qi the drawings sent back by Yang Silang and said in a deep voice. Said: “This thing will definitely help you.

Bai Qi, you have never let me down, so I believe that with your ability, you will be able to avoid Murong Chui's encirclement and successfully lead the army into Yinshan City. "

Bai Qi showed a serious look on his face and said in a deep voice: "The general will definitely not let down my lord's trust."

 To rescue Yinshan City, not only the speed of the cavalry is needed, but also the participation of infantry in defending the city.

But without knowing the enemy's troop deployment, it is not an easy task to lead an army of infantry and cavalry through Yuanmeng's defense zone.

Even if Bai Qi leads the army in person, he is still not very sure. After all, Murong Chui is not an idle person, and it is impossible not to notice the passage of 50,000 troops.

The drawings that Yang Silang took the risk and sent back were a timely blessing for the Han army, reducing the difficulty of this task by more than half in one afternoon.

With the help of this blueprint, Bai Qi is 70% sure that he can bring an army of 50,000 infantry and cavalry to Yinshan City without disturbing Murong Chui. If he wants to enter the city, a big battle will definitely break out.

Late at night, at the north gate of Ningxia City.

The 50,000 Han infantry and cavalry troops quietly assembled. Their goal was to rescue the precarious Yinshan City. The leading general was Bai Qi, the Qin Army Commander-in-Chief, and the accompanying generals included Gao Chong, Jiang Song, etc. people.

“The Governor, all the troops have been gathered,” Gao Chonghui reported.

“Captain Governor, we have also brought javelins, arrows and other supplies.” Jiang Songhui reported.

Bai Dian nodded and ordered: "Let's go."

 The 50,000-strong army marched towards the defense line of Yinshan City, and the countdown to the decisive battle officially began.

After Qin Hao led the army and joined Wang Meng, Ningxia County had 200,000 elite troops and 70,000 militiamen, totaling 270,000 troops, including 120,000 cavalry.

 In the previous battle with Murong Ke, both sides reduced their numbers by 10,000, so the total number of coalition forces dropped to 260,000.

Huo Qubing left the fortress and took away 60,000 cavalry. Bai Qi rescued Yinshan City and took away 20,000 cavalry and 30,000 elite infantry.

In other words, the remaining troops in Ningxia County are only 50,000 infantry, 35,000 cavalry, and 60,000 militiamen, totaling 145,000 infantry and cavalry troops.

Temujin was more difficult to deal with than Murong Ke. Facing the Yuanmeng army, which was far more powerful than his own, with less than 150,000 troops, it was undoubtedly difficult to hold the Ningxia defense line. Therefore, Qin Hao had to mobilize troops from other places to defend Ningxia. .

The Eastern Front is related to the safety of Bingzhou. Although General Meng Tian is in charge, there are only 60,000 troops after all, so the troops on the Eastern Front cannot be moved lightly.

Except for the eastern front, the only place in the entire Hetao where Qin Hao could mobilize troops was Xue Rengui in Yinchuan.
