Chapter 1573: Bai Qi VS Han Xin
Huguan
Since Qin Hao appointed Li Hongzhang as his envoy and went on a mission to the Liao Kingdom, he turned his attention to the battlefield in Jizhou.
Although Gongsun Xuanyuan's side can reverse the situation of the entire battle, Gongsun Xuanyuan's attitude is already very obvious. It is obvious that he wants to be neutral. In addition, Gongsun Xuanyuan's neutrality is also good for the Qin army, so Qin Hao has no choice. Too many distractions, after all, if you want to defeat the Northern Han Dynasty, you mainly need to rely on your own army.
On the Jizhou battlefield, with Han Xin taking charge of the entire army, the Qin army's offensive became more difficult, but the overall situation was still favorable to Qin Hao.
Since Han Xin became the governor-general of the Northern Han Dynasty, the Northern Han Dynasty Allied Forces have almost regained a new lease of life, and their difficulty has increased several times compared with before. Han Xin overturned all previous arrangements and turned the entire Jizhou into a battlefield, fighting for every inch of land with the Qin army.
With Han Xin’s basic command of 103, plus the effect of ‘Soldier Immortal’, the more the better, when the army reaches 400,000, after adding 4 points of command, Han Xin’s command attribute also skyrockets to 107.
This is not the limit. Coupled with Gaoming Gaojue's combo skill "Clear Eyes and Ears", a general with a command of more than 100 can gain a command +1 boost. Han Xin's command has been raised to 108.
A general with a commanding attribute of 108 will undoubtedly display terrible troop commanding abilities.
Bai Qi's basic command point is only 106 points, and he has no other amplifying skills, so if he relies on himself alone, even Bai Qi is no match for Han Xin.
Qin Hao naturally would not let Bai Qi fight alone, so before the war even started, he transferred the group of five good generals headed by Zhang Liao, the "sage seeker" Zhang Liang, and Guo Jia to Bai Qi's command.
Although Bai Qi's own commander is not as good as Han Xin after receiving skill blessings, with the superposition of the two skills of "Five Sons of One Heart" and "Sage Seeking", Bai Qi's commander can definitely surpass Han Xin.
‘Five Sons of One Heart’ will add 1 point of command attribute to the main general when someone other than one of the five sons serves as the leader.
‘Sage seeking’, when Zhang Liang serves as military advisor, will increase the general’s command by 1 to 3 points based on the general’s command and intelligence.
‘Five Sons of the Same Heart’ and ‘Seeking Saints’ together brought Bai Qi a 3-point command increase, which suddenly increased Bai Qi’s command to 109, overtaking Han Xin in an instant.
Bai Qi from Commander 109 VS Han Xin from Commander 108
Even though Bai Qi's commander-in-chief is only slightly higher than Han Xin, 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 general. Under the influence of one and the other, and with the assistance of two top strategists, Bai Qi is in a strategic position. It will definitely not be weaker than Han Xin.
So, even after Han Xin took over the military power, the Qin army could still advance vigorously under the command of Bai Qi.
Of course, Han Xin, who commanded 108, could not be defeated after all. Although he could not reverse the situation or even defeat the Qin army, he could still maintain an unbeatable state.
“My Lord, the battle situation in Jizhou has now been divided into three parts. Han Xin led an army of 200,000 to guard the front line of Yecheng, and faced off against the 280,000 army of Governor Bai Qi.
Lian Po led an army of 100,000 men to guard the Bohai Sea line and faced off against General Su Dingfang's 150,000 troops.
Wei Qing led an army of 100,000 to guard Daijun, and faced off against General Huo Qubing's 70,000 cavalry. "Reported by Liu Bowenhui.
The three-point battle situation in Jizhou is naturally the result of the game between Bai Qi and Han Xin.
Bai Qi saw that the defense of the Northern Han coalition forces did not have many gaps, and a forced decisive battle would probably hurt both sides. At this moment, Zhang Liang came up with a plan. Instead of just focusing on Yecheng in Wei County, he could divide his troops to attack areas where the enemy's defenses were weak. Bai Qi adopted Zhang Liang's strategy and sent Su Dingfang to lead an army of 150,000 men. They marched from Julu, where the enemy was weak, and then detoured to the enemy's rear, completely cutting off the connection between Yecheng and the Bohai Sea, leaving Yecheng It became an isolated city.
Han Xin discovered Bai Qi's intention immediately, so he immediately sent Lian Po to lead an army of 100,000 people, quickly circled back from the rear, and blocked Su Dingfang at the junction of Julu before Su Dingfang's army could pull out of Julu.
Lian Po was experienced in using troops, and he did not fight with Su Dingfang. He only wanted to defend. Su Dingfang could not do anything to him in a short time, and the soldiers and horses along the way were in a stalemate for a while.
Zhang Liang's plan failed, so Guo Jia made another plan and sent his cavalry to bypass Huguan and enter Bingzhou. Then he went north to Yanmen and attacked Daijun through Yanmen.
Daijun is both the western gateway to Youzhou and the northern gate to Jizhou. Therefore, as long as Daijun can be captured, one can go directly to Zhuojun, the capital of the Northern Han Dynasty, to the east, and completely cut off the connection between Jizhou and Youzhou to the south.
Bai Qi adopted Guo Jia's strategy and sent Huo Qubing, who was best at cavalry combat, to lead 70,000 cavalry back to Bingzhou to attack Dai County.
70,000 Qin cavalry left the camp. Naturally, such a big movement could not be concealed from the enemy.
Han Xin summoned many wise men such as Tian Feng, Jushou, Xun Kan, Huo Guang, etc., and discussed continuously for a day and night, and finally determined the Qin army's goal.
Immediately, Han Xin quickly sent Wei Qing to lead an army of 100,000 people and rush north to Daijun. He did not want to defeat Huo Qubing, but just wanted to keep Huo Qubing out of Daijun and prevent the Qin army from attacking Youzhou.
Before Wei Qing could enter Daijun, he detoured thousands of miles to Huo Qubing and suddenly captured Feihuxing, one of the Eighth Routes of Taihang. From then on, Daijun was completely exposed to Huo Qubing's iron hoof.
The eight towns of Taihang are: Junduxing, Puyinxing, Feihuxing, Jingxing, Fukouxing, Baixing, Taihangxing and Zhiguanxing.
Xing is the place where the mountains are interrupted, and there are many east-west transverse valleys in the Taihang Mountains.
Taihang Baxing is the eight throat passages that connect the three states of Hebei and You through the Taihang Mountains. They are also the location of important military passes on the borders of the three states.
Due to the surrender of the Can Ming Dynasty to the Qin Dynasty, as soon as Huguan was obtained, the southern Sanxing was already in the hands of the Qin army. The western gate of Jizhou was completely opened to the Qin army, so the Qin army could have such a big advantage in the early stages of the war.
Later, under Bai Qi's operation, Jingxing and Fukouxing in the central part were also captured by Zhang Liao and Huo Qubing respectively. In addition, Huo Qubing captured Feihuxing. The Qin army had captured six of the eight passes in Taihang, and was basically in a position to advance. A position that can be defended by attack or retreat.
The guard general of Daijun was Zhou Yafu, a famous general in Youzhou. When he learned that Huo Qubing was leading an invading army, he personally went to the city to defend the city. It was with Zhou Yafu's persistence that Daijun finally waited for Wei Qing's reinforcements.
When Huo Qubing saw Wei Qing's reinforcements coming, he neither continued to attack the city nor rushed to a decisive battle with Wei Qing. Instead, he wandered outside Dai County, but looked like he would pounce on him at any time and take a bite. Obviously, he wanted to steal Wei Qing's 100,000 yuan. The army was dragging on Daijun.
Yes, Han Xin still fell into Bai Qi's conspiracy. His continuous division of troops seemed to ensure the safety of both wings, but it weakened the strength of the central army and increased the pressure faced by the entire army.
