Chapter 1573: Bai Qi VS Han Xin
Kettle off
Since Qin Hao appointed Li Hongzhang as an envoy to the Liao State, he also shifted his attention to the Jizhou battlefield.
Although Gongsun Xuanyuan's fall to who can reverse the entire battle, Gongsun Xuanyuan's attitude is already obvious, it is clear that he wants to be neutral, and it is also good for the Qin army for Gongsun Xuanyuan to remain neutral, so Qin Hao is not too distracted, after all, if you want to defeat the Northern Han, you mainly have to rely on your own army.
On the Jizhou battlefield, with Han Xin taking charge of the whole army, the offensive of the Qin army became difficult, but the overall situation was still favorable to Qin Hao.
Since Han Xin became the governor of the Northern Han Dynasty, the Northern Han coalition army has simply regained its life, and its degree of difficulty has increased several times compared with before. And Han Xin overturned all the previous arrangements, turned the entire Jizhou into a battlefield, and fought with the Qin army for every inch of land.
With Han Xin's 103 basic force, plus the effect of 'Soldier Immortals', the more the merrier, when the unified army reaches 400,000, after superimposing 4 points of commander, Han Xin's commander attribute has also skyrocketed to 107.
This is not the limit, with the combination skill of Gao Ming and Gao Jue's 'Eyes and Ears Clear', the commander of more than 100 commanders can get the promotion of commander +1, and Han Xin's commander has risen to 108.
A commander whose attribute has reached 108 points is undoubtedly terrifying.
Bai Qi's basic commander is only 106 points, and there is no other basic increase, so if he relies on himself, even Bai Qi is not Han Xin's opponent.
Qin Hao naturally wouldn't let Bai Qi fight alone, so long before the war began, the group of five good generals headed by Zhang Liao, 'Mousheng' Zhang Liang, and Guo Jia were all transferred to Bai Qi's command.
Although Bai Qi's own commander is not as good as Han Xin after receiving the blessing of skills, but with the superposition of the two skills of 'Five Sons Concentric' and 'Seeking Saint', Bai Qi's commander will definitely be able to surpass Han Xin.
'Five Sons Concentric' adds 1 point to the commander attribute of the main general when a non-five son is the main general.
'Seeking the Saint', in the case of Zhang Liang as a military advisor, will increase the commander of the commander by 1~3 points according to the commander-in-command and intelligence of the commander-in-chief.
'Five Sons Concentric' and 'Mou Sheng' brought Bai Qi a total of 3 points of commander increase, making Bai Qi's commander skyrocket to 109 at once, surpassing Han Xin at once.
Bai Qi of Commander 109 VS Han Xin of Commander 108
Don't look at Bai Qi's commander-in-chief, the commander is only a little higher than Han Xin, but this alone is enough to widen the gap.
In addition, Guo Jia's 'ghost talent' can improve Bai Qi's intelligence, and 'Heavenly Jealousy' can reduce the intelligence of the enemy's main general, and with the assistance of two top military advisors, Bai Qi will definitely not be weaker than Han Xin in terms of strategy.
Therefore, even after Han Xin took over the military power, the Qin army was still able to advance under the command of Bai Qi.
Of course, Han Xin, who commanded 108, was not covered after all, although he could not reverse the situation and even defeat the Qin army, he could still maintain an undefeated streak.
"My lord, now the battle situation in Jizhou has been divided into three divisions, and Han Xin led 200,000 troops to guard the front line of Yecheng, and confronted the 280,000 army of the Governor of Baiqi.
Lian Po led 100,000 troops to guard the Bohai Sea line, and confronted General Su Dingfang's 150,000 army.
Wei Qing led an army of 100,000 to defend Dai County, and General Huo Quai's 70,000 iron cavalry confronted each other. Liu Bowen reported.
The three points of the Jizhou battle situation are naturally the standing rules of the game between Bai Qi and Han Xin.
Seeing that there were not many gaps in the defense of the Northern Han coalition army, a forced decisive battle would probably result in both defeats, and at this time, Zhang Liang offered a plan, not just staring at Yecheng in Wei County, but dividing his troops to attack the areas where the enemy's defense was weak.
Bai Qi adopted Zhang Liang's strategy, and sent Su Dingfang to lead an army of 150,000 troops, march from the enemy's weak Julu line, and then detour through the enemy's rear, completely stage the connection between Yecheng and Bohai, and make Yecheng a lonely city.
Han Xin discovered Bai Qi's intentions at the first time, so he immediately sent Lian Po to lead an army of 100,000 people, quickly rounded back from the rear, and blocked Su Dingfang at the junction of the giant deer before Su Dingfang's army pulled out the giant deer.
Lian Po is experienced in soldiers, and he does not fight with Su Dingfang, he only thinks about defending to the death, and Su Dingfang can't help him in a short time, and the soldiers and horses along the way are deadlocked for a while.
Zhang Liao's plan failed, Guo Jia made another offer, sent cavalry to detour through Huguan, entered Bingzhou, and then went north to Yanmen, and attacked Daijun by Yanmen.
Daijun is the gateway to the west of Youzhou, and it is also the north gate of Jizhou, so as long as Daijun can be captured, it can go straight to the east to Zhuo County, the capital of the Northern Han Kingdom, and completely cut off the connection between Jizhou and Youzhou to the south.
Bai Qi adopted Guo Jia's strategy and sent Huo Quai, who was the best at cavalry combat, to lead 70,000 iron cavalry to make a detour to Huizhou and attack Daijun.
The 70,000 cavalry of the Qin army left the camp, and such a big movement naturally could not hide from the enemy.
Han Xin summoned Tian Feng, Fu Zhu, Xun Kan, Huo Guang and many other wise and resourceful people, discussed for a day and a night, and finally determined the goal of the Qin army.
Immediately, Han Xin hurriedly sent Wei Qing to lead an army of 100,000 and urgently went north to Daijun, not to defeat Huo Quai, but to keep Huo Qubing out of Daijun, and not to let the Qin army invade Youzhou.
Wei Qing had not yet entered Daijun, and after traveling thousands of miles to Huo Quzhi, he raided and captured Flying Fox, one of the eight Taihang Mountains, and since then, Daijun has been completely exposed to Huo Quzhi's iron hooves.
The eight Taihang Mountains, namely: the military capital, Puyin, Flying Fox, Jing, Fukou, Bai, Taihang, and Yiguan.
陉, that is, the place where the mountain range is interrupted, and the Taihang Mountains are mostly east-west horizontal valleys.
Taihang Bashan, that is, the eight throat passages that cross the Taihang Mountains and cross the three states of Hebei, is also an important military pass on the border of the three states.
Due to the surrender of the remnants of the Ming Dynasty to Qin, as soon as Huguan arrived, the southern Sancheng was already in the hands of the Qin army, and the western gateway of Jizhou was completely opened to the Qin army, so the Qin army could occupy such a big advantage in the early stage of the war.
Later, under the operation of Bai Qi, the central Jingcheng and Fukou were also captured by Zhang Liao and Huo Qubing respectively, plus Huo Qubing and captured the Flying Fox, and the Qin army of Taihang Eight Cheng had already won six, and was basically in a position where it could be attacked, retreated, and defended.
The defender of Daijun is Zhou Yafu, a famous general in Youzhou, who learned that Huo Qubing led the army to defend the city in person, and it was under Zhou Yafu's persistence that Daijun finally waited for Wei Qing's reinforcements.
Huo Quai's reinforcements saw that Wei Qing's reinforcements were coming, so he neither continued to attack the city, nor did he rush to a decisive battle with Wei Qing, but wandered away from Dai County, but he had a posture that he would pounce on and bite at any time, obviously wanting to drag Wei Qing's 100,000 army to death in Dai County.
That's right, Han Xin still fell for Bai Qi's conspiracy, and his constant division of troops seemed to ensure the safety of the two wings, but it weakened the strength of the Chinese army, and at the same time increased the pressure on the whole army.
