Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Situation in Great Qin
The first day of fighting ended at dusk.
At this time, both sides retreated and returned to the camp.
On the other hand, Yingzheng moved the camp to a distance of less than ten miles from Yingchuan City and set up camp.
In the handsome camp, after eating, Ying Zheng, Wei Xiao, Meng Yi, Ying Qiang, Ying Tian, Hu Hai, as well as Zhao Gao and the generals of the first cadre all gathered here.
Of course, Zhao Gao and Hu Hai can directly ignore them, they are cannon fodder.
Ying Zheng knelt on the top, drinking wine while scanning everyone in the tent.
"How many casualties are there today?" Lightly, Ying Zheng took a sip of red wine and said.
"Qiqi Bixia, in a fierce battle with the rebels today, a total of 11,000 and 31 Qin soldiers were killed and wounded, of which the dead battalion accounted for 5,000, the crossbowmen accounted for 1,000, and the rest of the infantry accounted for about 5,000." Meng Yi saw Ying Zheng ask about the casualties, so he immediately reported it to Ying Zheng.
After Ying Zheng heard this, he nodded, thinking in his heart that the whole army would attack in just half a day, causing 10,000 casualties, and it was really painful in the era of cold weapons.
Although the combat effectiveness of these rebels was not as good as their own Great Qin armor, the other party relied on Yingchuan City as a support and stubbornly blocked the attack.
"How many casualties did the rebels have?" Ying Zheng knew that it was impossible to know exactly how many casualties the other party had, so he could only make a rough estimate.
"The casualties of the other side should be about 20,000."
"Well, that's good." Ying Zheng is very satisfied with this result.
Speaking of which, Wei Yu spoke.
"Bixia, Lao Chen thinks, it is best to fight the rebels quickly. Because at this time, the remnants of the Six Nations are rebelling one after another, and we cannot afford to delay it for too long. If we wait for them to come together, then we won't have an overwhelming advantage. Moreover, according to the news that the scouts came back, there were still 200,000 rebels in Chen County, and at the same time, there were 100,000 rebels led by Wuchen to Handan, Zhaodi.
In addition, the rebel Wu Guang led the attack on Xingyang, advancing westward along the Yellow River, wanting to open the road to Xianyang, and the other route led by Song Liu, passing through Nanyang Kuowuguan. Zuihou has one more way, this is the way we are fighting now, Zhou Wen of Yingchuan City! ”
Ying Zheng listened to Wei Xiao's words, and also agreed to a quick decision. Because there are too many rebels.
Not to mention how the current rebellion of Xiang Yu and Liu Bang has developed, just the several rebellions that Wei Xiao said just now are a headache for Yingzheng.
Although Ying Zheng believed that the army he led would definitely be able to quell these uprisings, if not, he would directly ask Meng Tian to lead the army south to help quell the rebellion, but the problem was that the damned Xiongnu actually went south to fight Qiugu not long ago. And it's 100,000 Hun cavalry!
It was already the beginning of winter, and at the beginning of spring two months later, Ying Zheng did not dare to determine whether those Xiongnu would continue to go south, so Ying Zheng did not want to use the troops on Meng Tian's side.
What's more, it's been almost two months since Zhang Han set off for South Vietnam, why hasn't there been any news yet? This made Ying Zheng have an ominous premonition in his heart!
Historically, Zhao Tuo would not dare to rebel, and he could not rebel against the system at that time.
But now, this time and space is different, even the Xiongnu can go south in advance, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang can raise an uprising, what else can not happen unexpectedly?
Yingzheng doesn't dare to bet!
After quelling the 400,000 rebels on the way to Yingchuan City, they had to go straight to Chen County, and then they had to counterattack Wu Guang all the way behind, Song Liuyi Road, and the military ministers who were going to quell the rebellion in Zhao Land.
In this way, it is estimated that Xiang Yu and Liu Bang will be full-fledged by then.
And there is also the uncertain factor of the Xiongnu, which worries Yingzheng the most.
At this moment, Ying Zheng thought that it was to quickly eliminate Zhou Wen and the 400,000 army in Yingchuan City, and then approach Chen County, when Wu Guang and Song Liu might come to the rescue, as for Wuchen, a person with two hearts, it is estimated that he will establish himself as the king, and he doesn't need to pay attention to him too early.
Well, that's a quick fix!
"That's right, now Daqin is very chaotic, except for our old Qin mainland, the other six countries are all surging, and the situation is very critical."
After speaking, Ying Zheng looked at Meng Yi, and then said, "Meng Yi, can Yingchuan City be taken quickly?" ”
After listening to Ying Zheng's words, Meng Yi thought for a while and said, "Bixia, this, can't!" Unless the other party dares to go out of the city to face the battle, it is impossible! Meng Yi directly told the truth, it is impossible to solve a quick battle with a siege method like this.
But this time Zhou Wen didn't go out of the city to fight, so it's hard to say.
"Bixia, General Meng is telling the truth, as long as Zhou Wenxiao doesn't go out of the city to face the battle, but just blindly defends the city, this battle is estimated to take half a month or more." Wei Xiao agreed with Meng Yi's words.
"That's it......" Ying Zheng sighed after hearing this, it seems that this battle cannot be resolved quickly, do you want to dispatch the five hundred zuihou's trump card - robots?
Wei Xiao, Meng Yi, and Ying Qiang were silent when they saw the sigh on Ying Zheng's face.
The current Daqin is actually already in turmoil, if it is handled well, there should be no big problem, but if it is not handled properly, the consequences will be unimaginable.
At this moment, Ying Zheng is entangled, if five hundred robots are dispatched, they can quickly capture this Yingchuan City. But it is estimated that after a wave, these 500 robots will run out of energy and enter a dormant state.
Now they are Ying Zheng's only life-saving trump card in this shijie, and now his merchant ring has no energy, so it is impossible to use it as a gold finger.
"What should I do?" Ying Zheng was thinking in his heart.
Now Ying Zheng wants to know very much, why there is no news from Zhang Han, which worries Ying Zheng the most.
South Vietnam is 400,000 Great Qin troops, although there are generally most so-called local troops, but the remaining 100,000 are the elite of Great Qin.
If Zhao Tuo rebelled, Yingzheng would be like crying.
"Bixia, as long as we can put down these rebels, the rest of the small rebels and those remnants of the Six Kingdoms don't have to worry!" This is, Wei Yu spoke again.
Yes, only Ying Zheng can quickly quell the uprising of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, so the next Xiang Yu and Liu Bang, as well as those shili who want to restore the country, are indeed not as critical as Chen Sheng and Wu Guang.
If the rebellion can be quickly quelled here, Ying Zheng knows in his heart that it is impossible for Xiang Yu and Liu Bang to grow up quickly.
When the time comes, you can slowly play them to death.
At this moment, Ying Zheng's heart began to sprout the idea of using those five hundred robots.
However, history is no longer the history of the original, and Xiang Yu and Liu Bang at this time have developed rapidly.
At the same time, a lot of things have changed.
This is a different shijie, a different time and space. (Happy New Year!) Ask for a ticket! )
