Chapter 2694 The battle between Qin, Song, Ming and Qingxu, Niu Mowang’s three battles with Jiang Song

Fan Li's guess was absolutely correct. Cao Wei suffered repeated defeats on the northern and southern fronts, losing troops and generals. The Song and Ming countries were indeed more anxious than Wei.

Even though Zhao Kuangyin was entangled with Xue Rengui, he still sent his adviser Shen Gongbao to help Cao Wei lobby the masters of the Demon Sect, because he was afraid that Cao Wei would be defeated by Da Qin.

What Zhao Kuangyin never expected was that it was precisely because Shen Gongbao left, and Yan Xiang was not as good as Lin Xiangru, and lacked strategy, that the subsequent defeat of Ge Ling occurred.

Shen Gongbao's intelligence attribute is as high as 100 points. Just think about it, if he was by Zhao Kuangyin's side during the Battle of Geling, how could Zhao Kuangyin fall into Lin Xiangru's scheme?

Shen Gongbao will definitely see through Lin Xiangru's plan, and may even plan a counterattack. If this is the case, the Qin army will probably be defeated in the battle of Ge Ling.

Zhao Kuangyin knew that he and Cao Cao were on the same rope, so he never stopped providing assistance to Cao Wei. In addition to Shen Gongbao, he also sent 30,000 troops.

Compared with Zhao Kuangyin, the Ming Dynasty's assistance to Cao Wei was much smaller. Even before sending Lan Yuchi to aid Dongjun, there was no support at all.

 Didn’t Zhu Di know that once Cao Wei was finished, Zhu Ming would also finish playing with him sooner or later? Of course he knows.

Even if Zhu Di didn't notice it, counselors such as Fan Zeng, Yao Guangxiao, and Li Yan would definitely remind him, so it's impossible for him not to know.

The reason why Zhu Di did not support Cao Wei was mainly due to his weakness. After all, 900,000 Qin troops were divided into eight groups to attack the three Central Plains countries. Among them: four groups of 420,000 troops attacked Wei, one group of 150,000 troops attacked Song Dynasty, and the other three groups were three groups. An army of 130,000 people is attacking Ming Dynasty.

 So, among the three Central Plains countries that were conquered by Qin, Cao Wei was under the greatest pressure, followed by Zhu Ming, and Zhao and Song were under the least pressure.

Of course, among the three Central Plains countries, Zhu Ming is also the strongest. He has not been defeated in three Central Plains wars, which shows his strong resilience.

In addition, after Zhu Ming expanded his army to the extreme, the total military strength in the country reached 400,000, and there were also 100,000 Song troops supported by Zhao and Song.

 In other words, there were 500,000 Song and Ming allied troops stationed in Qingxu Prefecture, but only 330,000 Qin troops invaded from three directions.

The Song and Ming coalition forces were 170,000 more than the Qin army, but they were still passively beaten. The reason for this situation was mainly because the Ming Dynasty had too many places to defend.

Although the Ming Dynasty did not border the Qin Dynasty on three sides like Cao Wei, it did have a long coastline in the east and could be invaded by the Qin navy at any time.

Once any seaport is lost, it may become a breakthrough point for the Qin army. If a large number of Qin troops land here, it will be difficult to force them back once they gain a foothold.

To put it bluntly, Zhou Yu's 80,000 naval troops along the way forced Zhu Ming to divide his troops and station them in various places, restraining more than 20 thousand Song and Ming coalition forces.

This is also the main reason why the Song and Ming coalition forces, which clearly numbered 500,000, were still so passive when facing the 330,000 Qin army, and could not even spare the energy to support Cao Wei.

It’s not that Zhu Di never thought of using the navy to control the navy, but Zhu Ming’s water force mainly came from the former Qi Navy, and the Qi Navy was defeated by the Qin Navy in the Hebei War.

Although Zhu Di has been vigorously developing the navy in recent years, it is only slightly stronger than the previous Qi State, which only established a navy of 50,000 people. It is impossible to be an opponent of Zhou Yu's 80,000 navy.

 For Zhu Ming, a water battle with Da Qin was too risky, and there was only one chance.

Once the Zhu Ming Navy is defeated again, the entire eastern coastal area will become the back garden of the Qin Navy. The Da Qin Navy can land wherever they want, and the connection between the Three Kingdoms of the Central Plains and Yingzhou will also be cut off.

 Therefore, if Zhu Ming's 50,000 navy troops did not go to war, Zhou Yu would be afraid of him, and they would lose their deterrent effect if they go to war.

Zhu Di was not sure of defeating Zhou Yu at all now, so he could only spend more effort and more troops to set up defenses at major locations along the eastern coast. At the same time, he allowed the Ming Navy to recharge their batteries and wait for someone who could kill him with one blow. An opportunity to defeat the Great Qin Navy.

Zhu Di personally led 120,000 infantry and cavalry, 50,000 naval troops, plus the 50,000 Song troops of Song general Yuan Chonghuan, a total of 220,000 troops guarding the eastern coast of Qingxu, which barely blocked Zhou Yu's 80,000 naval troops. offensive.

The Song and Ming coalition forces totaled 500,000, and 220,000 were used to guard the eastern coastal areas. Naturally, fewer troops were deployed in the north, with only 280,000 remaining.

Xu Shiji led 130,000 Ming troops and Zhang Xutuo's 50,000 Song troops, a total of 180,000 Song and Ming coalition forces to resist Su Dingfang's 150,000 Qin troops.

Xu Daze led 100,000 Ming troops to resist Zhuge Liang's 100,000 Qin troops.

However, because the Song and Ming coalition forces needed to divide their troops to garrison in various places, and Zhu Ming's navy did not dare to go to war, the Qin army was protected by Zhou Yu's navy, so the Qin army easily broke through the Yellow River defense line and entered the southern boundary of Qingzhou.

 The twenty-fifth Qin army marched in two directions, with relatively concentrated forces. In the early stages of the war, they completely suppressed the Ming army.

 This is also the main reason why both Wei and Song were anxious to send reinforcements to the Ming Dynasty at the beginning.

After all, the Qin army's offensive in Qingxu was indeed very fierce, and it also made Wei and Song really think that the Ming Dynasty was the main direction of the Qin's attack. Who would have thought that the Qin Dynasty would attack Zhu Mingming and beat Cao Wei secretly, putting the three kingdoms of Wei, Song and Ming in a row.

Now that Qin's true combat intention has been exposed, since the Qin army's main attack direction is in Wei and not in Ming, the pressure faced by Ming will not be so great. Naturally, Ming will also change its combat strategy and allocate part of its troops to support Cao Wei. , so later Lan Yu led 40,000 generals such as Niu Mowang and Fu Youde to aid Dongjun.

 The Qingnan battlefield has now reached a stalemate.

After Su Dingfang and Zhuge Liang crossed the Yellow River and invaded Qingnan, although they captured many cities in the plains in the early stages of the war, they were unable to do anything in the Qingnan Mountains.

The Central Plains are all flat, but only Qingnan has complex terrain. The central part is mountainous, the southwest and northwest are low-lying and flat, the east is covered with gentle hills and hills, and in the east, there are plains, basins, mountains, hills, and lakes interlaced among them. The landform is extremely complex and diverse;

 Most of the famous mountains and rivers such as Taishan, Laoshan, Liangshan, Lushan, Yishan, Yimeng Mountain and Qianfo Mountain are also located in the Qingnan area south of the Yellow River.

After all, the Song and Ming coalition forces in Qingnan numbered 280,000. After losing or deliberately abandoning some cities in the northern plains, the defense line built based on the mountainous areas in the south was stronger and more suitable for fighting Zhu Ming's best. Defense counterattack.

In the first three Central Plains armies, Zhu Ming relied on defensive counterattacks. The Wei and Song coalition forces that were repelled now wanted to repeat their old tactics to deal with the Qin army. Although Zhu Ming's tactics are old, they are indeed very practical.

If the Qin army tried its best to attack the Qingnan Mountains, the casualties would obviously be too great, and it would inevitably fall into weakness.

Therefore, after the Qin army launched its force on the western front, the three armies of Su Dingfang, Zhuge Liang, and Zhou Yu all tacitly postponed their offensive on the eastern front. After all, they were not the main direction of attack, and there was no need to fight with the Ming army in Qingnan. .

As long as the three armies on the eastern front can hold back the Song and Ming coalition forces until the fall of Cao Wei, and if hundreds of thousands of armies on the western front come over, Great Qin will be able to destroy Zhu Ming at the minimum cost.

After Zhu Di determined Qin's main attack direction, the Qin army's offensive on his side had indeed weakened. Knowing that he was temporarily out of danger, he dared to divide 40,000 troops to support Cao Wei.

 Zhu Di's efforts to aid Cao Cao this time were also very strong. Not only did he send General Lan Yu, who was second only to Er Xu, but he also sent Niu Mowang, the most powerful general in the Ming Dynasty.

You must know that the three Qin armies attacking the Ming Dynasty only suspended their offensive and have not retreated in Qingnan. Moreover, Jiang Song, a fierce general who is firmly in the top three of Qin Dynasty, is in Su Dingfang's army.

 In the entire Ming Dynasty, no, in the entire Central Plains, no one except Niu Mowang could stop Jiang Song one-on-one.

However, Zhu Di transferred Niu Mowang away from Qingnan and went to Yanzhou battlefield to support Cao Wei. He was not afraid that after Niu Mowang left, Jiang Song would be left uncontrollable on the Qingnan battlefield. It must be said that this move was quite courageous.

Since the war between Qin and Ming dynasties, Jiang Song was the most aggressive of the Qin army.

Jiang Song led his troops to defeat the four cities of Qi County in three days, single-handedly defeating the four war gods Xia Luqi, Xia Shuyan, Wang Yanzhang and Wang Yantong.

During the Hebei War, the four war gods Ju Mac, Xia Luqi, Tantai Yu, and Gongsun Shu joined forces to kill Ran Min, one of the twelve super generals.

Now Xia Luqi is the God of War with a base strength of 107, the iron spear general Wang Yanzhang has also reached a base strength of 106, and the peak general Wang Yantong has also advanced to the level of God of War.

With these four gods of war teaming up, their lineup is obviously stronger than the one that killed Ran Min, but they still can't beat Jiang Song four against one.

If Niu Mowang hadn't rescued him in a timely manner, I'm afraid the Ming army would have lost at least two war gods.

The first battle between Jiang Song and the Bull Demon King ended in a draw due to Jiang Song's physical exhaustion from fighting the four war gods. However, the two soon fought again at the foot of Linzi City.

This time no one is helping the Bull Demon King to consume Jiang Song, and the two super generals have a fair one-on-one battle.

 Sage of Spears Jiang Songjiwu 109 (+2) VS Demon King Niu Mowang 108 (+1)

This battle lasted for a whole day and lasted for more than 400 rounds. In the end, Jiang Song was the better one.

Jiang Song used his clever strength to drain Niu Mowang's energy, and then shot back Niu Mowang with all his strength to knock Niu Mowang off his horse, and then pursued the victory and defeated Niu Mowang.

Niu Mowang, like Sun Lingming, is a fierce general who is both internal and external. Although he loses to Jiang Song in terms of moves, his physique is stronger than Jiang Song.

Although Jiang Song defeated Niu Mowang, it was difficult to kill him. Even within ten days, Niu Mowang recovered again, and then the two men broke out for a third battle.

In this battle, it was not that Jiang Song approached Niu Mowang, but that Niu Mowang made a surprise attack on the Qin army's food road in the name of military commander Fan Zeng, but was besieged by the four war gods Jintai, Meng Ben, Ruan Wengzhong, and Ao Moang.

Jiang Song can defeat the four gods of war on his own. The Bull Demon King is only slightly inferior to Jiang Song, so he can naturally do it.

Niu Mowang single-handedly defeated the four war gods of the Qin army, and gained insights from the two battles with Jiang Song. He successfully broke through the Grand Master, and his base martial arts was also raised to 109, and then fought against Jiang Song who came to rescue him.

In the third battle between Niu Mo Wang and Jiang Song, Jiang Song finally won, but Jiang Song did not win against Niu Mo Wang in his prime, but was consumed by Jin Tai, Meng Ben, Ruan Weng Zhong, and Ao Mo'ang. Don’t forget Bo’s cow.

This shows that Niu Mowang from Jiwu 109 is no less powerful than Jiang Song.

Of course, there will be rewards for the oxen, and the same goes for Jiang Song.

Jiang Song broke through the Grand Master in terms of cultivation and raised his base strength to 109 (+1) points. Although his base strength did not continue to increase, like Gao Chong, he was also accumulating and turning to skill enhancement.

Relying on Niu Mowang's insights after two defeats, Jiang Song's skill 'Qian Jue', which had already been strengthened once, was finally successfully upgraded to 'Shen Qian Jue', becoming the successor to Li Cunxiao's 'Flying Tiger Po Army', and Lu Bu's After the 'Dragon City Flying General', this is another four-character unique skill.

 At this point, Jiang Song has fought three times with Niu Mowang, with both sides winning or losing.

 In the first battle, Jiang Song was defeated and the Bull Demon King won.

 In the second and third battles, Jiang Song won, while Niu Mo forgot to lose.

However, Niu Mowang also made a breakthrough, reaching 109 base points, and Jiang Song even completed the skill advancement.

 Both parties have benefited and become stronger.

Although Niu Mowang was defeated by Jiang Song twice, with a higher defeat rate, he did not think that he was weaker than Jiang Song. After all, he only broke through in the third battle, and was consumed by the four gods of war too much, so he lost to Ginger pine in its prime.

If he were also in full strength, Niu Mowang was confident that after his breakthrough, he would definitely be able to defeat Jiang Song, who was standing still.

As for Jiang Song, although his basic martial arts has not improved, his skills have advanced and his combat power has been further enhanced. Naturally, he will not feel that he will lose to his defeated generals twice.

Both Jiang Song and Niu Mo Wang were confident in themselves, but just as they were preparing for the fourth battle, Niu Mo Wang was transferred by Zhu Di to support Cao Wei, so the fourth battle between the two could only be left for later. .
