Three Kingdoms: Peak Summons

Chapter 1854 Fight to the end

Chapter 1852: Fight to the end

“Lord, Nurhaci’s reaction was far more intense than expected.

If this continues, the Fifth Route Army is likely to fight a decisive battle with the Qing army in Youbeiping first. Liu Bowen said with a solemn expression.

 Before the war started, Liu Bowen's three military advisers agreed that after the 130,000 troops arrived in Youbeiping, it was more likely that the Qin and Qing armies would confront each other without fighting. There are two reasons for this.

 The first thing is that except for the 130,000 Qin troops on the fifth route, there were only 200,000 Qin troops who participated in the destruction of the Han Dynasty, and they were not able to crush the Han army.

Therefore, it is more likely that the Qing army will retain its strength and watch Qin and Han lose both sides.

 Second, looking at Nurhachi's previous performance, he did not dare to go all out whether against the Yuan, Han, or even the three Koreas.

Although this arrangement is stable, it is too conservative and not enough to strive for success.

Therefore, facing the Qin army, which has stronger combat effectiveness and is more united, even if the Qing army is larger in number than the Qin army, the Qing army may not dare to fight a decisive battle with the Qin army as long as the main force of the Qin army is intact.

 But the Qing army's reaction was so violent, which was somewhat unexpected.

"Hmph, just fight. I really think this king is afraid of him, Nurhachi."

Qin Hao snorted coldly and ordered: "Send orders to Jia Fu to capture Xu Wu County within three days."

Xu Wu County is still under the rule of the Han army. Although it is not owned by the Qing army, once the Qin army captures Xu Wu County, it means that it will officially enter the battle for Youbeiping County. By then, the Qin and Qing armies will Relations will surely become more tense as a result.

"Lord, there is no need to continue to stimulate the Qing army. Even if our army does not occupy Xuwu County, if we just camp and defend it based on the favorable location, we can still block the Qing army in Youbeiping, making it impossible for them to intervene in the Youzhou War.

At this time, if Xu Wu County is captured, it will officially border the Qing army. At that time, there will be more places to be garrisoned, and a war may break out if there is a little friction. "Zhuge Liang added.

 All the generals also nodded in agreement. After all, before the complete destruction of the Northern Han Dynasty, it would be difficult to fight the Qing army with only the 130,000 Qin troops on the fifth route.

Qin Hao naturally knew this, but after some consideration, he still decided to capture Xu Wu County.

“What the military advisor said is reasonable, but I still decided to capture Xu Wu County.”

As soon as Qin Hao said this, Zhuge Liang hadn't spoken yet, but all the generals spoke one after another, trying to dissuade Qin Hao and give up this idea.

Seeing this, Qin Hao smiled and explained: "Don't rush to persuade me, first listen to my reason for doing this."

All the generals were silent. They thought that the Lord did not think deeply and just continued to stimulate the Qing Dynasty for the sake of face.

“The Qing army has always bullied the weak and feared the strong, and is accustomed to using its power to bully others. It will never give in because our army gives in, and will only push further.

Therefore, since our army has entered Youbeiping, it does not take Xu Wu County, which is within easy reach. In Nurhaci's view, this is a sign that our army is far smaller than the Qing army and lacks confidence.

Nurhachi would think that our army was afraid of the Qing army's front, so it did not dare to attack Xuwu County. The Qing army would definitely push forward to test our army's bottom line, and it would be easier for a decisive battle to break out.

 So, it is better to fight hard from the beginning to the end, so that the Qing army knows that our army is not afraid of going to war with them.

The Qing army could not figure out the details of our army, so it would lack confidence, so it would take the initiative to retreat, sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and watch both our army and the Northern Han Dynasty lose. "

After hearing Qin Hao's thorough analysis, the generals immediately stopped talking, because it did make sense. Zhuge Liang also looked thoughtful, then smiled and said: "My lord, what you said is very reasonable, but Liang didn't think carefully."

 At this time, Zhuge Liang further realized how trouble-free it is to have an all-powerful lord.

Take Qin Hao as an example. He is both a famous general and a fierce general. At the same time, his strategy is not inferior to that of a first-rate counselor. His force, military skills, strategies, etc. are all top-notch in the world. His consideration of problems is even more comprehensive than his counselor.

Meeting such an all-powerful lord is naturally lucky for all the ministers. The only disadvantage is that the monarch's talent is too strong, which will make their ministers appear incompetent.

After listening to Zhuge Liang's words, Qin Hao smiled and said: "What are you talking about, military advisor? You just don't know enough about the Manchu Qing Dynasty. I also dealt with foreigners when I was fourteen years old, so I know the nature of foreigners so well." "

Zhuge Liang said: "My lord, if we arrange it like this, the 20,000 troops led by Cheng Bushi of Tuyin County cannot be left alone."

 Qin Hao knew what Zhuge Liang meant. Tuyin County had a geographical advantage over Xu Wu County. If there was only one Xu Wu County, the loopholes in the Qin army's defense line would be huge, and only by capturing Tuyin County could the defense line be improved.

In addition, once the Qing and Han forces join forces to seize Tuyin County, they will form a pincer attack on the Qin army. In this way, the Qin army, which is already insufficient in strength, will face greater pressure.

Although Liu Che's various actions have cut off the possibility of joining forces with the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Qin Hao, as the king of a country, naturally cannot place his hopes on the morality of his enemy.

Qin Hao was responsible for the lives of 130,000 soldiers, so he had to capture Tuyin County and merge the two counties into a whole to completely improve the defense line.

"Youbeiping County is very small and cannot tolerate the game between the three parties. Which general is willing to lead the army to attack Tuyin County?"

As soon as Qin Hao said this, all the generals stood up and expressed their willingness to lead the army. Some even suggested that with only 5,000 soldiers and horses, they could attack Tuyin County, which had nearly 20,000 defenders.

“Lord, Liang has a plan. He can ask Cheng Bushi to voluntarily give way to Tuyin County without spending a single soldier.” Zhuge Liang said with a mysterious smile.

As soon as these words came out, all the generals did not dare to speak, including the general who said that only five thousand soldiers were needed.

They are sure to capture Tuyin County because of the strong combat power of the Qin army, but it is definitely impossible for them to do it without spending a single soldier.

Qin Hao knew that Zhuge Liang would say this, and he must have a certain degree of confidence, so he said: "In this case, the capture of Tuyin County will be left to you, the military advisor.

I wonder how many troops and horses a military advisor needs? "

 “No more, no less, thirty thousand is just right.”

It is easy for the 30,000 Qin army to defeat the 20,000 Han army, and it is not too difficult to capture the heavily guarded Tuyin County, but it is very difficult to do so without spending a single soldier.

Qin Hao was also curious about how Zhuge Liang was going to seize Tuyin County from Cheng Bushi without spending a single soldier, so he decisively said: "Okay, I will give the military advisor 30,000 troops and horses, and Long Qie, Yue The three generals Xi and Su Xian were also placed under the command of the military advisor."

 “Liang Ding will live up to his lord’s trust.”
