Chapter 1165: Will Starfall

Yuwen Chengdu held the heart of death this time, and came to fight Jiang Song, Ran Min, and Gao Pet alone.

However, the difference in strength between the two sides is too big, Yuwen Chengdu was attacked by Ran Min and Gao Chong, and was shot down by Jiang Song's flying blade in less than five rounds, and he was directly captured alive before he could even commit suicide.

In this way, Yuwen Chengdu became the first super god general to be captured alive so far, and this is undoubtedly a big humiliation for the arrogant him.

The war soon came to an end.

The remaining 3,000 Liang troops, although they have become a mourning army, have been out of food for ten days after all.

The Liang army was hungry and tired, and it was a little difficult to even wield weapons, how could it be possible to resist the 60,000 Qin army.

The Qin army launched only one charge, and the Liang army was completely defeated, and the death and surrender of the 3,000 mourning troops did not even cause more than double-digit casualties to the Qin army.

"Dadu Governor, our army suffered a total of eight casualties, killed more than 900 Liang troops, and captured more than 2,000 prisoners."

"Hmm."

After listening to the soldier's report, there was no joy or sadness in Bai Qi's eyes, he just nodded lightly and asked, "What about Yuwen Chengdu?" ”

"I have been captured alive by General Jiang Song."

At this time, Jiang Song escorted Yuwen Chengdu, who was tied into a dumpling, and said in a deep voice: "The last general is fortunate to have fulfilled his mission and has successfully captured Yuwen Chengdu." ”

"Well done."

After Bai Qi praised him like gold, he saw that Ran Min and Gao Pet were not there, and immediately asked, "What about Ran Min and Gao Pet?" ”

"They're going to capture Yang Lin."

The biggest credit for capturing Yuwen Chengdu is naturally Jiang Song's, and Ran Min and Gao Chong are not the ones who admit defeat, so they went into the depths of the military camp together and went to compete for the credit of Yang Lin, the commander of the Liang Army.

Although there were only 3,000 people left in the Liang army in the end, it was still a camp of 50,000 people, and after Ran Min and Gao Chongbing searched for a while in two ways, it was finally Ran Min who took the lead in finding Yang Lin's handsome tent.

"Finally found it."

Ran Min licked his lips, his eyes were full of joy, and then after opening the curtain, he saw Yang Lin sitting on the main seat expressionlessly, without the slightest panic and surprise on his face, as if he had expected this scene for a long time.

"The first person to walk in, I thought it would be Bai Qi, but I didn't want it to be you Ran Min." Yang Lin said lightly.

A trace of displeasure flashed in Ran Min's eyes when he heard this, but he sneered: "To capture you as a general of the defeated army, where is the use of the Grand Governor to personally dispatch." ”

Yang Lin stared at Ran Min for a few seconds, then shook his head and said, "It's a pity, it wasn't Bai Qi who killed me." ”

Ran Min was stunned for a moment, and immediately said in a deep voice: "Actually, you don't have to die." ”

Yang Lin didn't answer, just shook his head, and Ran Min said when he saw this: "It's not easy to beg for death in front of Ran Min and me." ”

Yang Lin flashed a hint of relief in his eyes, and said lightly: "It's too late." ”

When Ran Min heard this, his face suddenly changed greatly, and he stepped forward in an instant, grabbed Yang Lin's mouth and prevented him from biting his tongue to kill himself, but there was still a large amount of blood overflowing from his mouth.

"You actually took the poison in advance."

Ran Min's face suddenly became a little ugly, Yang Lin's role in being alive was obviously greater, and if he died, his value would plummet dozens of times.

"I said it all, you don't have to die, why do you bother."

Ran Min sighed and let go of his hand, while Yang Lin said with great difficulty: "Help me bring a word to Bai Qi, I Yang Lin lost my heart." ”

"Don't worry, the words will definitely be brought."

"Thanks."

After that, Yang Lin completely lost his life.

It is really embarrassing that a generation of famous generals was forced to commit suicide by taking poison.

In this way, when Yang Jian withdrew from Sizhou, the 40,000 Liang troops left behind by Yewang and the 10,000 Liang troops withdrawn from Hedong, a total of 50,000 Liang army elites, were completely wiped out.

In this battle, the Qin army, under the leadership of Bai Qi, only paid a very small price, and achieved the huge results of destroying 10,000 enemies and capturing 40,000, and killed the enemy's main general Yang Lin and captured the deputy general Yuwen Chengdu.

"Now that Yang Lin is eliminated, our army is in Sizhou, and there is only one enemy left, the alliance army of the southern princes."

Qin Hao laughed out loud and said: "The combat strength of the coalition army of the southern princes is weak, and it is destined not to be the opponent of our army, and the reunification of Sizhou is finally just around the corner." ”

From this moment on, Qin Hao was completely out of opponents in Sizhou, so he was naturally happy and excited in his heart.

"My lord, before sending troops to Wang Mang, let's consolidate the defense of the Western Front first."

Bai Qi stood up and said in a deep voice: "Although Zhou Yu has not asked for help so far, it must be time for the troops to run out." ”

Qin Hao's eyes lit up, and then he smiled and said: "What the Metropolitan Governor said is very true, since this is the case, he ordered Pei Yuanqing and Xu Chu to lead five thousand troops to support Hangu Pass." ”

"Five thousand?"

Bai Qi was stunned for a moment, and then asked with some doubts: "Lord, are you sure?" There are still 70,000 Liang troops outside Hangu Pass. ”

"Of course." Qin Hao smiled lightly.

Seeing that Qin Hao didn't mean to explain, he didn't ask more questions with great interest, which can be said to show the duties of the courtiers to the fullest.

Bai Qi didn't know about the alliance between Qin Hao and the Guanzhong forces, and Qin Hao would not take the initiative to tell Bai Qi that he and Li Shimin teamed up to calculate Yang Jian's plan.

The reason why Qin Hao only sent 5,000 soldiers and horses to Hangu Pass was naturally to cooperate with Li Shimin in Chang'an, deliberately creating a false impression that the Qin army was insufficient, so that Yang Guang could strengthen his determination to attack Hangu Pass.

In the case that Yang Lin has also been completely defeated, if Yang Guang can't even see the hope of breaking through, he will definitely lead the army back to Chang'an.

Once Yang Guang's 70,000 army returned to Chang'an, such a huge force would obey Yang Jian's words, which would undoubtedly be a disaster for Li Shimin, and there was not even the slightest possibility of overthrowing Yang Jian.

What Qin Hao needs is a Liang army that is constantly fighting among themselves, so whether he wants to or not, he must also help Li Shimin drag Yang Guang as much as possible, and only if Yang Guang sees the hope of breaking through Hangu Pass, he will continue to lead the army until he attacks Hangu Pass.

"The next opponent is the only one left to join the alliance of the southern princes."

After Qin Hao looked around at the generals, he said in a deep voice: "After the alliance of the southern princes went south to Sizhou, not only did they quickly expand their army to 150,000, but they also dispatched 130,000 troops at one time to grab territory with our army, and our army also went to meet it in two ways.

Hanoi, Wang Mang's 90,000 army, against Su Lie's 30,000 army;

In Hedong, Chen Qingzhi's 40,000 army faced Xue Rengui's 20,000 army.

Although the strength of our two armies was much smaller than that of the enemy, they both achieved great results and defeated many of the enemy's main forces.

Su Lie defeated Wang Mang's 50,000 army in the Battle of Chaoge, and although Xue Rengui and Chen Qingzhi won and lost each other, the overall casualties were far inferior to the enemy's.

So far, the total number of troops lost by the coalition forces of the southern princes has exceeded 50,000, while the number of troops lost by our army is only a little more than 10,000.

After Wang Mang forcibly expanded the army again, although it recovered to 130,000, it was also further weakened by the combat power of the coalition army.

However, after our army completely solved the problem of Yang Lin and divided troops to support Hangu Pass, there were still 65,000 more fresh troops. ”

When Qin Hao said this, all the generals showed excitement, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that the next battle should end soon.

"Now this company announces the next strategic arrangement ......"

As soon as Qin Hao's words fell, he saw a soldier break in, shouting as he ran: "Report ...... Enlightening the lord, the river loop came with a flying pigeon to pass the book. ”

The soldier handed over the cloth with the words written on it, and Qin Hao's face suddenly changed greatly after seeing it, and he showed a look of disbelief.

The generals were all surprised when they saw this, what kind of information could make the lord show such an expression?

"Lord, what's wrong?" Bai Qi asked with a frown.

Qin Hao sighed and sat down, and then handed the cloth to Bai Qi, who also widened his eyes when he saw it.

I saw that it was written: Zhenbei Pass fell, and Yang Ye, the governor of the capital, died in battle.
