Chapter 2823: Attack Chenliu and decisive battle at Puyang
After all, Ming Tie Fan is a married woman, and since she is not very useful, she can only influence Niu Mo Wang, but cannot make decisions on his behalf.
Hence, Ying Hao didn't say much to her. He just told her that Styx was not dead yet and that the Demon Sect had changed. He didn't waste any time talking.
Ming Tieshan was naturally surprised when she learned this. Although she hated Ying Hao because of her father's hatred, she did not think that Ying Hao, the great emperor, would deliberately play tricks on her in this regard.
“Dad’s plan to recruit a disciple must have been successful.”
Ming Tieshan thought to himself, although his excitement and ecstasy were beyond words.
As for why Ying Hao did not kill his father, but announced that his father was dead? Ming Iron Fan guessed that Da Qin wanted to take this opportunity to clean up the Demon Sect's forces.
The power of the Demon Sect in the Central Plains is too great, and Da Qin cannot leave it alone, and the top leaders of the Demon Sect are unwilling to bear the interests of the Central Plains, so the conflict between the two parties cannot be adjusted fundamentally.
Ying Hao will let go of his father Styx because of Jia Fu, but he will never let go of the entire Demon Sect because of Jia Fu.
Ming Iron Fan has no good way to deal with this. She neither has the ability nor the desire to take care of it. After all, most people in the Demon Sect are indeed not good people.
Just from the message sent to her by her nephew Ye Dingzhi, asking her never to return to Mount Tai, it can be seen that the Demon Sect at this time must have undergone a sudden change due to the death of her father Ming He. There is a high probability that Ye Dingzhi It's almost unbearable.
Ming Tieshan knew this but still wanted to go back to Mount Tai. She just wanted to go back and help her nephew stand up and share some of the pressure. After all, she still had a large network of connections, but she didn't expect to be intercepted by Li Xiaoyao halfway.
Through Ying Hao, Ming Tieshan already knew the news about the Demon Sect's transformation. She wanted to know more, but Ying Hao didn't intend to say more, or even continue to talk to her.
After Ming Tieshan bit his lip, he rationally did not continue to ask, but said in a deep voice: "I have to see my father first before I can believe it, and then I can write to my father."
Styx ‘falls’ and Styx Iron Fan is arrested, but Niu Hong escapes.
Ying Hao didn't need to think about it to know that Niu Hong, that paranoid brat, would definitely use this to shirk responsibility, stir up trouble, and incite Niu Mohuang's hatred of Da Qin.
After Styx burned his internal energy, apart from Kunpeng and Kuigang who had sealed the mountain, the only two people who still threatened Da Qin were Niu Mowang and Yuan Jiuling.
Even Zi Zaitian, a master in the later stage of the Grand Master, is still not as good as the two super-god Grand Masters, King Niu Mo and Yuan Jiuling, so Ying Hao naturally has to guard against these two people. Burn internal energy.
Although Yuan Jiuling had conflicts with Da Qin, he was a martial arts fanatic, and he was relatively precious about his life. If he didn't push him hard, it would be impossible for him to burn up his internal energy.
On the contrary, Niu Mowang, from the perspective of the other party, he and Da Qin had a hatred for his harmful brother, the hatred for killing his father-in-law, and the hatred for capturing his wife. With so many hatreds added up, the conflict between the two sides would definitely be endless.
Ying Hao still hopes to conquer Niu Mowang, so he needs a handwritten letter from Styx Mingtieshan and his daughter to explain the whole story to Niu Mowang.
If you write a letter alone, Niu Mowang may not believe it.
Of course, even if two people write a letter, Niu Mowang may not believe it, but he will definitely care in his heart, and if he has concerns, at least he will not burn out his internal energy.
With this in mind, Ying Hao was extremely patient with Ming Iron Fan. As for the letter of persuasion, she could write it after she reunited with her father.
"It's up to you. Styx has been sent to Luoyang. If you want to see him, you have to go to Luoyang." Ying Hao said lightly.
Ming Tie Shan naturally had no objection to this, and Ying Hao did not waste time on her. He immediately ordered people to **** her to Luoyang to reunite with the seriously injured Ming He.
Ying Hao will stay in Chenliu mainly for Mingtieshan and Niuhong. Now that Mingtieshan has been escorted back to Beijing, there is no need for him to stay in Chenliu. After all, Yingchuan still needs him to be in charge, so he immediately Prepare to return to Yingchuan.
Before leaving, Ying Haohao specifically told Zhang Liao not to be impatient and not to push Cao Cao too hard, in order to prevent Chen Liu's Wei army from escaping early.
The battle between Qin and Wei has reached a critical point. The core of the next war is neither Xuchang nor Chenliu, but Bai Qi in Dongjun.
If Bai Qi's plan succeeds, the Qin army will defeat Cao Wei in one battle. Even if it fails, the Wei army will be unable to recover, so staying calm is the key.
In addition, the main force of the Chenliu Wei Army has not been lost. The combination of Cao Cao + Eight Tiger Cavalry + Fan Li and others should not be underestimated. If it were not for the presence of Jia Xu in the Chenliu Qin Army, the five good generals headed by Zhang Liao might not be their opponents.
Zhang Liao was indeed anxious about the chaos in the Central Plains, but he still dared not disobey Ying Hao's orders.
Ying Hao knew that Zhang Liao was a person with a big picture in mind, and when he saw that Zhang Liao agreed, he returned to Yingchuan with peace of mind.
In the few days that Ying Hao stayed in Chenliu and returned to Yingchuan, Niu Hong had already fled back to the Ming army camp, and the number of rebels in various parts of the Central Plains was also growing rapidly.
As expected by Ying Hao, after Niu Hong escaped, he took all the responsibilities away from himself, and even blamed Da Qin for the death of his grandfather and mother, in order to arouse his father's hatred towards Da Qin. Hate.
Didn't Niu Hong doubt his son's words? He had just experienced the pain of losing his brother. When he learned that his father-in-law had died and his beloved wife had died to protect his son, he was filled with grief and anger. His eyes were filled with blood and he roared: "I Lao Niu swore that he and Da Qin would never live together."
Dizzy with hatred, Niu Mowang has forgotten the agreement he made with Li Cunxiao. Now he just wants to avenge his father-in-law and his beloved wife. It is conceivable that if he encounters the Qin army in the future, he will definitely not show mercy. .
But now that Li Cunxiao is in the Qin army, Niu Mo forgets that it is difficult to protect himself. Whether he will be merciful or not does not make much difference.
Niu Hong looked at his furious father and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. At the same time, his hatred for Da Qin became a little stronger. After all, if Da Qin sent Hei Bingtai to ambush, how could his mother risk his life just to cut him off? die?
In Niu Hong's view, his mother must have died, and he was unable to take revenge, so he could only rely on his father.
But Niu Hong obviously didn't think about it, and his father Niu Mohuang didn't have the ability to take revenge. If he really continued to fight with Da Qin, the final outcome would be death. He was equivalent to leading his father to a dead end.
I have to say that Niu Hong is unparalleled in terms of deceiving people. After he deceived his grandfather, he deceived his mother, and after he deceived his mother, he deceived his own father. He deceived everyone around him. Momen was also forced to participate in the war because of Niu Hong. If this trend continues, the only three countries that can be tricked by him next are the Wei, Song, and Ming Dynasties. It is not known whether the Wei, Song, and Ming Dynasties will win the bid.
Chen Liu, Fengqiu.
Since Cao Cao established the strategic policy of sticking to the western front, Fengqiu City has become the core of the Wei army's western defense line.
Cao Wei's newly constructed defense line in the west of Yanzhou was from north to south, namely Suanzao, Junyi, Fengqiu, Chenliu and Yongqiu.
Among them, Suanzao, Junyi and Fengqiu were located in a triangle shape, making it easy to defend and dispatch reinforcements, so Cao Cao placed his headquarters in Fengqiu.
Although Ying Hao asked Zhang Liao not to push Cao Cao too hastily, the normal strategic advance still had to continue.
Therefore, after occupying Guandu, although Zhang Liao did not attack on all fronts and use full firepower, he was still in an aggressive trend on the whole, and his army continued to advance toward the east.
At present, Fugou and Yuxian counties in the south of Chenliu have been conquered by the troops led by Li Dingguo and Gao Shun.
Once Fugou and Yuxian counties were defeated, the passage between southern Chenliu and Yingchuan was completely opened. From now on, the Qin armies of Chenliu and Yingchuan will communicate with each other, and Xuchang will also be surrounded on three sides.
The northern passage to Xuchang is blocked. From now on, it is no longer possible to evacuate to the north or northeast to Chenliu. They can only evacuate west to Chenjun.
The defeat of Fugou and Yuxian counties also greatly increased the pressure on Cao Cao. However, Chenliu and Dunqiu were both fortified cities, and the defenders Cao Ren and Xia Houyuan were good at defense, which did not allow Li Dingguo and Gao Shun to succeed.
Cao Cao thought that pulling the Demon Gate into the water would greatly relieve Cao Wei's pressure, but it turns out that far water cannot quench the thirst of the nearer, and the Demon Gate is far away water.
Perhaps when the 130,000 Demon Sect rebels are formed and trained for a period of time, they will help Cao Wei share some of the pressure, but this process will take at least a month, and this month requires Cao Wei himself to resist.
A month is neither long nor short.
If he only sticks to it for a month, Cao Cao will naturally be confident, but he is worried that other things will happen within this month.
“Le Yi, you must hold on for the last month.”
Cao Cao looked in the direction of Dongjun and prayed secretly in his heart, but for some reason he always had a bad feeling in his heart.
——————
East County, Puyang.
Le Yi, as the general of Cao Wei's northern line, naturally already knew the news that the Demon Sect was participating in the war and was about to form a 130,000 rebel army, but he was not happy at all about it. The reason was naturally that water from afar could not quench the thirst for nearness.
In the previous battle, Le Yi fell into Bai Qi's plan, so that Baima City was lost and he had to lead his army to retreat to Puyang City.
Once Baima City was lost, a large amount of land in Dongjun fell, and Cao Wei was left with only two cities, Yanxian and Puyang. However, the two cities were located in the west and east, and could not take care of each other at all.
Fortunately, Cao Cao took the initiative to abandon Guandu, and the western defense line moved back eastward. After the army withdrew, the number of Suanzao defenders was increased, and Yan County guarded Chenliu's north gate.
Therefore, Yanxian and Suanzao can be at odds with each other. Otherwise, Yanxian alone cannot defend it even with a strong general like Yin Shou.
“General Le, Lan Yu and Niu Mowang have led their troops to withdraw from Dunqiu, and Niu Hong is also in Niu Mowang’s army.” Xun Youhui reported.
Lanyu's main purpose of going to Dunqiu this time was to see if he could take advantage of Jia Fu's army's new defeat and low morale to take the opportunity to recapture Dunqiu City.
But what he didn't expect was that Li Cunxiao had just taken over Jia Fu's army and had to revive the morale of this newly defeated army, so that he failed to accomplish both things.
Lan Yu's attack this time also brought limited food and grass. He couldn't take Dunqiu with Li Cunxiao. It would be a waste of food and grass to stay here. It was better to retreat first to replenish food and grass.
After Le Yi heard what Xun You said, he quickly asked: "Niu Hong is back, is there any news about my brother Le Cheng?"
In order to use Niu Hong to lure the Demon Sect into trouble, Le Yi deliberately sent Le Cheng and Niu Hong, each leading 1,500 Ming and Wei troops, to cut off the food road to Dunqiu while Li Cunxiao and Lan Yu were fighting.
The subsequent development of the situation was as Le Yi expected. When Niu Hong was in danger, Minghe was forced to take action, but he never expected that Hao Zhao could be so capable. Not only did he defeat the three thousand Ming and Wei coalition forces, they were also wiped out. And even his younger brother Lecheng failed to come back.
The relationship between Le Yi and brothers Le Cheng is very good. He has actually guessed Le Cheng's ending, but he always has a little bit of luck in his heart.
What if, since Niu Hong is still alive, what if Lecheng is not dead yet? But in the end this can only be a wishful thinking.
Niu Hong didn't know whether Le Cheng was dead or not, but in the Battle of Dunqiu, Le Cheng did not follow his instructions and eventually abandoned him and fled alone. This was naturally a betrayal in Niu Hong's view.
However, since the Wei army sent people to inquire, it means that Lecheng did not escape back to Dunqiu. It was most likely that he was caught up by the Qin army. He is probably dead now, so he naturally has to report truthfully.
"Niu Hong said that before he was defeated, Lecheng fled in fear of the battle, but Qin general Hao Zhao also pursued him. He didn't know whether he was dead or alive in the end."
Xun You sighed, and at the same time he was relieved in his heart. After all, it had come to this point. Niu Hong just thought that Le Cheng was just afraid of fighting and ran away. He did not think that it was Cao Wei who deliberately set up the trap. He thought that it would be impossible for him to do it in the future. Find the problem.
The matter of using Niu Hong to lure the Demon Sect into trouble can be considered a complete cover-up.
Sorry, sorry, I'm stuck. There is a big bug in the later plot of the original plan. In addition, I am still in the internship period of my new job. I have also been very busy at work recently. I work a lot of overtime and my mind is not on coding, so I stopped updating for a few days to adjust. status.
