Chapter 233: Total War

Liu Ming lit the red wolf smoke with the torch in his hand, and in this rising flame, Liu Ming believed that Shile would definitely come to an end.

Because Schle had no idea how long his side had been preparing for this war.

How could Shi Le's wit not be comparable to the hard forbearance and preparation on his side.

In Shi Le's opinion, this is just Liu Ming's call for help, but for Ming, this is a signal that Liu Tai wants to close the net!

Liu Tai, who was docked on the ship in the port, finally saw Liu Ming send out the wolf smoke signal, instinctively clenched his fists, and then said to Zhou Ping beside him, "Light the wolf smoke, the whole soldier, and get ready to go!" ”

"Obey!" Zhou Ping replied decisively, and Ge Xin went to light the beacon fire in person.

As this beacon fire ignited, one after another beacon flames began to appear in the field of vision in an instant, and began to spread to the north, Qinghe County, Bohai County, Hejian County, Fanyang County......

Along the way, almost every other distance, a beacon fire would float into the sky.

From the south of Jizhou to the north of Jizhou, it runs through the entire Jizhou, so that all people can see clearly.

Wang Sang, who was stationed in Nanpi, was already ready to go, as a relative of the Wang family, although he also admired Liu Tai, but he couldn't help but think in his heart that if Shi Le had not killed Wang Mi, what kind of achievements would his Wang family have now.

After all, Liu Tai grew up watching himself, and he knew that Liu Tai's strength was strong, but even so, he occasionally had a little bit of rebellious thoughts, as long as Wang Mi didn't die, then he would definitely be Wang Mi's basic plate.

As for now, because of Wang Wei's relationship, he is more or less Liu Tai's maiden family and the core force of Liu Tai's forces.

But the problem is that as the basic plate of the force, and the core members of the force, the status of the two is the same?!

Therefore, Wang Sang hated Shi Le very much, because Shi Le killed Wang Mi and almost turned the Donglai Wang family from a possible imperial family into the industry of a first-class family, but the Donglai Wang family was originally a first-class family!

Therefore, seeing the beacon fire and wolf smoke signal at this moment, Wang Sang summoned all the generals, with Zhang Song as the military advisor and Gao Liang and Xu Miao as the deputy generals, planning to pass through Anping, Julu, Handan, and point directly at Yecheng, and Yecheng is also the point where they and Liu Tai's goals converge.

As this beacon reached further north, Zhao An also summoned his staff officers Gao Zhan and Liu Qun, Youzhou Governor Shi Caowei, the indoctrination envoy Lu Chen, and his lieutenant generals Ji Tang, Li Nong and Ma Yan to discuss the march into the state.

Yes, when Liu Tai was planning Shi Le, he understood that after Shi Le killed Liu Kun, he could completely use the Taihang Mountains to form a barrier and have enough strategic depth.

But the problem is that Liu Tai either doesn't fight, but if he wants to fight, he wants to fight the whole battle in one battle.

Therefore, Shile's back road must be cut off, which is the responsibility of Zhao An's army, and directly detour through the grassland to take the state.

Among them, with Liu Qun leading the way, he also needs the prestige of his father Liu Kun to appease the local people and family.

Zhao An's three lieutenant generals, among which Li Nong was trained by himself, Ji Tang was the representative of the surrendered family in Youzhou, and as for Ma Yan, he was actually an exile group active in Dai County.

At the beginning, with the civil strife of the Tuoba clan, Ma Yan pulled up a team of men and horses to protect himself, and then waited for Zhao An to come to Zhao'an.

Later, when Zhao An pacified the Tuoba clan of civil strife, he easily subdued it.

The Tuoba clan, which was entrenched in Dai County, was naturally quite powerful when Tuoba Yilu was alive, and could even shelter Liu Kun.

But with the death of Tuoba Yilu, Tuoba Liuxiu and Tuoba Pugen competed, and the two of them died one after another in the battle, and Zhao An was forced to send troops to pacify the Tuoba tribe in order to maintain the steady development of Daijun.

The women's rewards were given to the soldiers to take good care of, the men's ones were handed over to Lu Chen for a good education, and Liu Tai also wanted to renew the contract with the Tuoba tribe and jointly develop Daijun, but the problem was that the Tuoba tribe was divided and destroyed, and he couldn't find anyone to fulfill the contract!

"The beacon fire in the south has been lit, but we also need to reorganize our troops and horses and set off to merge states!" Zhao Andao.

"Please don't worry about food, the king of Qi left me here just to maintain the food needed for the expedition!" Cao Wei said to Zhao An, "In order to prepare for this battle, the King of Qi dug out this entire section of the canal to transport and reserve grain!" ”

Zhao An nodded, he only found out after becoming the protector of Youzhou that he had accumulated a lot of grain in the continuous shipping trade every year.

As for the food that the people eat, it is more of the sea fish caught in the Bohai Sea.

The fishing industry, which had not developed much in recent years, has also begun to develop gradually.

For the coastal cities, however, it is clear that the number of fresh seafood is gradually increasing, and the time spent eating salted fish that has been salted is slowly getting shorter.

It is precisely because some of the food is replaced by fisheries that other grains are saved little by little.

Zhao An nodded and immediately recruited soldiers, and began to enter the state from Daijun.

It can be said that the endless beacon fire of this road is Liu Tai's notification that his subordinates have begun to do it in an all-round way.

You think you're fighting for just one county, and if you want to fight, then go to an all-out war.

Among them, Zhao An's army was 15,000 people, Wang Sang's army was 20,000, Liu Tai himself was 50,000 people, and Tian Yu's army cooperated.

Most of the soldiers and generals under Liu Tai's command started in this battle, and some of the soldiers did not move, but in the hands of Yao and Bian Hu, there were 10,000 soldiers stationed in Taishan County to avoid Gou Xi's repeated attacks or Zu Ti's attack.

If he is really defeated, even if Liu Tai is injured by relying on the government soldier system, he will still be able to make a comeback after ten years.

But the problem is that Liu Tai has been recuperating for three years for this battle, whether it is horses or weapons, almost all of his soldiers are armed to the teeth, if they are all defeated, Liu Tai feels that he should wipe his neck, don't come out and be embarrassed!

At this time, Shi Le also felt that something was wrong, because with this beacon fire, what Shi Le saw was the rising beacon smoke in the distance.

The wolf smoke was thick and red, as if endless clouds of fire had risen from the sky.

Truth be told, Shile didn't know what the rising wolf smoke meant.

But Shi Le was sure that Liu Tai might have been ready to deal with him a long time ago, but he had been waiting for him to do it himself.

Shi Le's heart was a little more stable, anyway, this time Liu Tai gave himself a whole month.

This allowed Shi Le to recruit all the soldiers and horses, including 20,000 cavalry and 100,000 infantry, most of which were veterans of a hundred battles who accompanied him all the way to the battle, and it can be said that he was really 120,000 elite soldiers, so Shi Le was full of confidence at the moment.

And the soldiers in Liu Tai's hands, as long as Shi Le has the heart to listen, he will naturally be able to find out.

Youzhou, Nanpi, Taishan County, these places all need soldiers to be stationed, and the speed of dispatch is not to be said, but there must be traces.

Therefore, Shi Le can be sure that even if Liu Tai ambushes himself, his soldiers are about fifty or sixty thousand, and even if there is a gap, the gap will not be too big.

Dealing with Liu Tai with double his strength, Shi Le felt that even if he couldn't take Liu Tai, it was enough to ensure his safety.

And the first step he needs to do now is to take Qinghe County first, no matter what the wolf smoke lit by Liu Tai, but Shi Le can be sure that there is no trace of Liu Tai's army within at least ten miles through the exploration of the scouts under his command.

This time should be enough for me to take this Qinghe County, where even the city gates have been opened and the four gates have been controlled, with an absolute advantage!

It's just that Shi Le's pupils couldn't help shrinking at this moment, because he saw the soldiers under his command retreating!

The two elites of the Peacock Dolphin and Zhiqu entered the city of Qinghe County with Shi Le's order, and saw that Kong Chang's entire defense line was in danger, and even some people had begun to flee.

This scene made it hard for the two to believe it, because the city gate had been taken down by themselves, and now it was just a matter of defeating the enemy in front of them, even if the other party didn't have the courage to be taken, it was definitely impossible to be so brave!

But when Kong Chang saw the arrival of reinforcements, his eyes lit up, and he said:

"You've been surrounded, and now you're going to be captured! If you are obsessed, you will only give Liu Tai a funeral! ”

Liu Tai's soldiers heard this, but they didn't have the slightest effect, and they didn't even stop wielding the Mo knife in their hands.

Because they are not only fighting for Liu Tai!

Liu Ming said loudly: "We soldiers, fight for the revival of the Han Dynasty, fight for the defense of the Han Dynasty, the people of the Tiger Ben, one block five!" ”

Hearing Liu Ming's shout, the military historians around him shouted loudly at this time when they were constantly training according to the training: "Tiger Ben, one block five!" ”

The unanimous cry to unify the faith of the warriors and strengthen their will.

Liu Tai has been educating his subordinates for a long time, eradicating illiteracy, and teaching the history of the Han Dynasty, which has paid off at this moment.

This made Liu Tai face Liu Yao when he wanted to change the name of the country and change the national unification, he couldn't go on directly, so he could only jump out to defend the national unification and defend the Han Dynasty, otherwise he would completely collapse his basic plate.

But at the same time, Liu Ming's corporal was only 5,000 men, but he had no fear in the face of opponents who were several times his own.

Because they enjoyed the benefits of the war because of the Juntian system and the government military system, they understood their lofty ideals of reviving the Han Dynasty because of their education, and Liu Ming's will not to retreat at this moment.

and, most importantly, Liu Tai armed them to the teeth with a suit of fish-scale armor.

At this moment, when they faced Kong Chang, the porpoise and the army of Zhiqu, they inspired the glory of a Han being a Wuhu, they were a great Han soldier, how could they lose to a mere Hu people!

And Kong Chang, the army of Kong Chang and Zhiqu, although they are not new recruits to the battlefield, especially the headquarters of Kong Chang and others, there are many veterans of a hundred battles, and they do not lack experience and courage in war.

But in the face of Liu Ming's headquarters, who is not afraid of death at this moment, especially in this kind of frontal fighting, their corporal watched the weapons in their hands cut on the scale armor of Liu Ming's soldiers, and the other party only lost the scale armor, but the Mo knife in the opponent's hand was cut on his own leather armor.

Such an extremely significant difference in combat effectiveness not only made the low-level soldiers tremble, but even the two of them couldn't help but widen their eyes.

The soldiers with such equipment still have a brave fighting style of exchanging lives for lives, which makes the lethality of the army terrifying!

When they came, they felt that Kong Chang in front of them was a pig, obviously even the city gate had been taken down, and they went in to wantonly slaughter one side, and what kind of opponent couldn't take it down!

But now, the peacock and the branch are full of doubts, how did Kong Chang support himself in the face of such a terrifying opponent like hob meat.

The soldiers led by everyone are almost the same, why are the soldiers you led so strong?

Compared with the disbelief in the hearts of the peacock and Zhiqu, Kong Chang wanted to scold a little at this time.

Everyone is leading the same soldiers, as soldiers, they are either wearing fish scale armor or bright light armor, so they can lead the main force of their headquarters to the front line to block it, won't they?

The soldiers did not dare to fight to the death because the armor on their bodies was not thick enough, and as generals, they were still hiding behind them, because they were afraid that the already crumbling defense line in front of them had not collapsed!?

Kong Chang thought that he had come to the savior, but these saviors really went to the battlefield, and they didn't even hold out for a quarter of an hour, and some soldiers showed signs of rout.

Whether it was Kong Dolphin or Zhi Qu, they were a little too surprised that Liu Ming's headquarters was elite, and they didn't even dare to come to the front line to curb the deserters, so it caused the original defense line that Kong Chang was holding to collapse instead!

Because it's not easy to learn well, and it's hard to learn badly.

Seeing the reinforcements around him coming in a hurry, and retreating in a panic, if the soldiers around Kong Chang can still have the will to persevere, it is too high to think of these soldiers!

After all, it is not the belief that they are willing to die to fight, or the extremely stable interests, not to mention that these soldiers are just trying to make ends meet.

Without the blessing of will, for the vast majority of soldiers, in the face of an invincible enemy, fleeing is the most correct choice!

At this moment, Kong Chang's face was ugly, but he was also protected by his personal guards, and retreated towards the city gate.

It's just that there are many people who can retreat, but many people are in the crowd, falling directly and stepping into meat sauce.

Liu Ming looked calm about this, and only indifferently commanded the army under his command, pushing Shi Le's army step by step.

From Qinghe County, step by step towards the outside of Qinghe County!

Liu Ming knew about Liu Tai's plan and was even more convinced that Liu Tai's support would arrive on time.

Therefore, Liu Ming commanded his subordinates to directly kill out of Qinghe County, and he wanted to delay Shi Le here, even if he killed all his subordinates, he would drag Shi Le in Qinghe County!

Shi Le watched Liu Ming directly kill through his three war divisions and walk step by step from Qinghe County, his face couldn't help but be a little frosty.

Because Shi Le found out that this was Liu Ming, Liu Tai's most trusted general and not Liu Tai himself, his plan would inevitably fall short.

At the same time, Schler found that he could not retreat.

If he retreats, the morale of Liu Ming's army is high at this moment, and he is afraid that he will definitely be chased and killed by Liu Ming.

Even if the cavalry can escape, the elite of their infantry will inevitably be lost.

So I have to solve Liu Ming's elite, but if I solve this elite, how much time will it take?

Shi Le didn't know, but what Shi Le knew was that if he didn't press Liu Ming to death, then he would definitely die!

Liu Ming didn't speak, he only pulled out the sword in his hand and roared, "Tiger Ben, one against five!" ”

Come to war!
