Chapter 1732 The Third Battle of Hetao
Chapter 1730: The Third Hetao War
Hetao.
After receiving the news that Yang Guang, Ma Teng, and Han Sui had formed a coalition to invade Hetao, the top leaders of Hetao and Bingzhou gathered together to formulate a plan for war with the three-nation coalition.
Wang Meng, the governor of Bingzhou, and Xun Yu, the governor of Hetao, are both talented people who know both military and political affairs. Of course they know how big the third battle of Hetao will be.
Hetao and Bingzhou are the food and grass supply areas for the Qin army in Hebei. Although the Qin army has occupied most of Jizhou and Qingbei areas and has been able to be self-sufficient in the short term, nearly half of the food and grass still needs Hebin and the two places. supply, so the war on the Loop cannot drag on for too long.
Originally, Wang Meng was planning to lead the army himself, gathering the elites from Hebin and the two places, and with lightning speed, defeated the invading Three Kingdoms Allied Forces in Liangzhou.
However, due to the sudden death of Emperor Yuan Tuo Lei, the relationship between the two countries also became tense. Before Kublai Khan succeeded to the throne, Yuan and Meng could move south at any time. Therefore, it was naturally impossible for Wang Meng to send all the main forces before the situation stabilized. Transfer to the Loop.
After joint discussion among Wang Meng, Xun Yu, and Xi Zhicai, it was finally decided that Meng Tian would be the commander-in-chief and Xi Zhicai would be the military advisor. He would lead 30,000 cavalry and 20,000 infantry, with a total of 50,000 stationed in Hetao to fight against the 10 troops who came from afar. Wanliangzhou Allied Forces.
Wang Meng, the governor of Bingzhou, led an army of 30,000 men and was personally stationed in Yanmen County. Xun Yu, the governor of Hetao, led an army of 20,000 men and was stationed in Yinshan County. They were governors of Yanmen Pass and Zhenbeiguan respectively to prevent Yuanmeng from being caught off guard when he suddenly moved south. .
After Meng Tian was ordered to lead the army, although he knew that the enemy's strength was twice that of his own, he did not panic at all.
Meng Tian's troops are old, but these 50,000 troops are all elite, and they also have 30,000 cavalry. However, the total number of cavalry in Liangzhou's 100,000 coalition troops may not be 30,000.
In addition, the Qin army is united as one, but the three Liangzhou families are on guard against each other, and there are many discords. It will definitely be difficult for them to unite and deal with the outside world.
With these two points alone, even if an army of 50,000 faced Liangzhou's 100,000, Meng Tian would still be sure of victory.
Not long after Meng Tian’s army marched to Hetao, and before a war broke out between the two sides, four generals, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, and Xu Chu, were transferred from the Jizhou battlefield to the Hetao battlefield.
Meng Tian naturally welcomed the arrival of Zhao Yun and other generals. After all, their joining would greatly enhance the army's combat effectiveness.
When everything was ready, Meng Tian had no intention of relying on the city to defend. Instead, he led Zhao Yun, Meng Yi and other generals, and an army of 50,000 to the front line. He was actually preparing to defend the enemy outside the country's gate, and faced the enemy with 50,000 troops head-on. Wanliangzhou Allied Forces battle.
After the two armies met, they did not immediately start a decisive battle, but conducted some tests with each other.
After some testing, Meng Tian discovered that there were many fierce generals in the Liangzhou coalition.
Yang Guang’s subordinates include: Gao Gao, Shi Wansui, Wu Yunzhao and Gao Changgong;
Ma Teng includes: Ma Chao, Ma Yuan, Pang De;
Han Suiyou: Yan Xing…
In general, the Qin army was at a slight disadvantage on the side of the generals.
However, although there are many fierce generals in Liangzhou, they do not cooperate during the battle. They basically fight on their own.
In addition, the defense between the three families of Yang, Ma and Han was much greater than Meng Tian thought.
The three families of Yang, Ma and Han are clearly united, but they don't even have a joint camp. Each army has its own camp. It can be seen that they are still in the same bed with each other.
After learning this information, Meng Tian basically knew what was going on, so he took advantage of the coalition forces to camp separately and took the initiative to launch an attack on the coalition forces with superior strength, and defeated the coalition forces in one battle.
In the first battle, the Qin army killed nearly 10,000 enemies while suffering less than 1,000 casualties. It can be said that it was a complete victory and its morale was high.
Facing the weak yet powerful Qin army, the Liangzhou coalition forces who lost their troops were extremely angry. Finally, under the persuasion of the Sui army's military advisor Cheng Gongying, the three families of Yang, Ma, and Han put down their prejudices and wariness against each other, and united to camp together. Prevent another fall. After Yang, Ma and Han united and unanimously faced the outside world, Meng Tian had far fewer weaknesses for Meng Tian to target, but Meng Tian didn't care about it.
There is no weakness to be found, so just use real swords and guns to defeat them with strength.
Liangzhou has a strong folk custom and is a high-quality source of soldiers. The three major princes of Liangzhou, together with the Tang Dynasty King Li Shimin, divided the Qiang ethnic group among the Qiang people. The army is filled with a large number of Qiang warriors. With strict training, they can become The army is strong, so the combat power of the three armies in Liangzhou is not weak.
The Liangzhou coalition has excellent military resources, but Liangzhou is too poor and is divided into three families, which compete and attack each other constantly.
The constant consumption of conscription, taxation, and wars made Liangzhou poorer and poorer.
Regardless of the three families of Yang, Ma and Han, this time they dispatched 100,000 troops to attack the Qin army, but the total force left behind in Liangzhou for defense is estimated to be 100,000 troops.
Liangzhou has only a small population, but it has so many troops. Although Liangzhou alone can barely afford it, the equipment of the army cannot be much better.
After Meng Tian's observation, the armor equipped by the 100,000 coalition troops in Liangzhou was less than half of the 50,000 Qin army. This ratio was the lowest among the princes in the world.
With poor equipment, even if the quality of the soldiers is high, the combat effectiveness will be greatly affected. The Qin army not only has high overall quality of soldiers, but also has the best equipment in the world.
Relying on sophisticated equipment and a well-trained elite army, Meng Tian led an army of 50,000 to repeatedly defeat the Yang, Ma and Han coalition forces in Hetao.
After the battle, because the casualties were too great, the three families of Yang Guang, Ma Teng, and Han Sui felt sorry for the casualties. They were not willing to fight with the Qin army, but they were not willing to just withdraw, so they simply set up camp and waited for the other few. Something unexpected happened to Lu Dajun.
The Qin army that was supposed to be on the defensive has been taking the initiative to attack, while the Liangzhou coalition army that took the initiative to attack was forced to defend passively.
Fighting and not fighting, retreating and not retreating, this behavior of the Yang, Ma and Han families was obviously to delay Meng Tian's army and prevent this powerful army from being transferred back to Sizhou and Jingbei.
Meng Tian was angry and helpless for the gangsterism of the three families. He couldn't find a way to defeat the enemy in a short time. Under Xi Zhicai's suggestion, he adopted the method of soaking in water and soaking him with water. He would kill a hundred of them today and kill him tomorrow. Kill him eighty times and eat away at the Liangzhou coalition army bit by bit.
There are many resourceful people in the Liangzhou coalition, including Gao Ying, Cheng Gongying, Yang Su, etc. In order to get rid of being cannibalized, they would take the initiative to challenge every now and then, but they just didn't break out a big war, so as to control the casualties and wait for the situation to change. .
In this way, there were also constant battles on the Hetao side, but except for the early stage, no major battles occurred. On the contrary, the fighting was extremely fierce.
In this battle, many generals also stood out. Generals such as Gao Gao, Ma Yuan, Gao Changgong, etc. all showed their prominence in this battle of Hetao.
Especially Gao Gao, shocked the Qin army the first time he took action.
Meng Yi, who was defeated in the first ten rounds, fled.
After that, he defeated Xu Chu in twenty rounds.
Yang Erlang, Wulang, and Qilang joined forces, but they were still defeated by Gao Gao alone.
Had it not been for Huang Zhong, a master archer, half of the above-mentioned Qin generals would have died at the hands of Gao Gao.
In the end, it was Zhao Yun who took action to curb the high winning streak.
