Chapter 254 Changes in the General Trend Part 1

Chapter 254 Changes in the General Trend Part 1

In the blink of an eye, three months have passed. During these three months, several extremely sensational events happened.

Among them, there is the last battle on the central battlefield.

After the Qin army recuperated for a period of time, the wounded of the coalition army also recovered, and the remaining nearly 300,000 troops of both sides re-arranged their positions on the plain, and the final decisive battle began.

Although there were many soldiers in Qin, the morale was relatively low after all. Psychologically, they had a rare feeling of fear towards the coalition forces on the opposite side, which greatly shaken the combat effectiveness of the coalition forces.

Although the coalition forces are small in number, their morale is strong. Especially under the encouragement of the reward order promulgated by the Imperial Kingdom, everyone yearns for the battlefield, hoping to make contributions so that they can become the unattainable monarch and nobleman.

Therefore, the combat effectiveness of the coalition forces can be said to have soared.

Comparing the hatchbacks, the strengths of the two sides are extremely close, evenly matched.

Even in a certain aspect, due to the fact that the coalition forces are few and united, their combat effectiveness is more cohesive, and they have a unique advantage in this aspect on the battlefield.

Therefore, the battle between the two sides on the plain quickly entered a fierce confrontation and consumption not long after the beginning.

This time, the two sides, the coalition forces are fighting with the idea of ​​making contributions and opening up territories. However, Qin State is holding the mission of defending the country and fighting bravely on the front line outside the border. And behind the back of the state of Qin, the king of Qin gave a death order, and those who retreated would be beheaded, and their family members would be implicated.

With such a warning of a death line, Qin Jun regained the courage to fight, at least they did not dare to flee casually.

Therefore, the intensity of the battle this time far exceeds any previous one. Both sides are fighting with the belief of immortality. They have no fear of life and death, no fear of pain, no fear of fatigue, and what they pursue is one word, victory.

This big battle has been fought for a long time, without a single pause or rest in the middle, the troops of both sides are constantly increasing and expanding, slowly covering the entire battlefield, the entire plain for tens of miles.

The war lasted for three days and three nights, until both sides were exhausted, unable to spare any troops and soldiers, and the soldiers were too tired to move at all, so they had to retreat to recuperate.

The casualties brought about by such a tragic war are also extremely considerable.

According to statistics, after the 180,000 Qin army withdrew from the battlefield, there were only a mere 30,000 left. The remaining remnants did not dare to stay, instead they withdrew overnight from the border between Qin and South Korea, and retreated to Luoyang, the prefecture city of Sanchuan County behind them, to rest there.

And what about the coalition? Even more tragic.

Of the 100,000 coalition forces, only 10,000 were left in the end. Such a small number of people can't even maintain the situation on the battlefield, or even fill up the barracks, let alone defend the border between the two countries.

These people also had no choice but to evacuate from the battlefield, and returned to Xinzheng City, the capital of South Korea, the only relatively stable area in South Korea that was not damaged by the war, and slowly recuperated.

It can be said that after such a battle, both sides are exhausted, and it is difficult to launch any large-scale battles, even small local wars with thousands of people and hundreds of people are unable to provoke them.

The situation on the battlefield was out of control, and both sides suffered losses, and the impact on the world was far-reaching.

First of all, let’s talk about the Qin State. Its strategy of going east was destroyed. The 450,000 troops that Yingzheng gnashed his teeth to collect had been completely lost, leaving only a mere 30,000 remnants of the panic-stricken and completely abolished army lingering in Sanchuan County. It can be said that he has completely failed his strategy of opening the situation from the central battlefield, and Qin will also enter the abyss from which it is difficult to escape.

News from the northernmost and southern battlefields. The northern battlefield came with reinforcements led by Li Mu. Mengwu's 130,000 Qin army fell into the north, and was surrounded by the 120,000 army of Li Mu, who joined the 20,000 defenders of Hanoi County, and the 100,000 remnant army led by the kings of Zhao and Wei in the valley.

Although the Qin army laid down a series of defense lines and actively defended, and the 100,000 remnants in the valley lacked supplies and morale was low, as the war lasted for three or four months, the Qin army's defense line finally showed a flaw and was on the verge of collapse.

Among them, the remnants of the army in the valley, due to the shortage of food, damaged weapons, and lack of clothing to keep out the cold, lost many soldiers in non-combat situations. In addition, because it is under siege, it does not have an advantage in terms of geographical advantages. If you want to break out of the siege, you can only attack the fortifications that the Qin army has prepared for a long time, which will cause a lot of loss.

Up to now, at the end of the central battlefield, there are only 30,000 coalition forces left in the valley, and all of them are sallow, emaciated, and weak, and their combat effectiveness can be said to be extremely low.

As for the reinforcements outside the valley, although they were extremely eager to rescue, facing the situation where their king was surrounded by enemies, every general of the two countries fought desperately and fought with all their might.

Under such circumstances, the loss of the reinforcements was naturally much greater.

By the end of the central battlefield, of the 120,000 reinforcements, there were only 50,000 left.

However, compared to the heavy losses of the two coalition forces, as the defensive side, the Mengwu army, which is under pressure from both sides, is naturally not much better.

Because the road outside was cut off by the 120,000 reinforcements, the supplies of the Mengwu army also began to be cut off. Although there were reserves in the valley, they were used less and less.

In the end, they simply cut off completely, and lived the same bitter life as the coalition forces of the two countries besieged by them.

And with the onslaught of the two countries, their losses are also increasing day by day, getting better every day.

Also at the end of the central battlefield, there were only 30,000 of the 130,000 Qin army left, and it was impossible to maintain such a large battlefield situation.

And there have been breakages and loopholes on many fronts. Let the separated King Wei and King Zhao reconnect with Li Mu's coalition forces, and the two sides even started to join forces with an army of hundreds of people.

If the kings of the two countries were not afraid of death and did not dare to evacuate the besieged valley with the escort of more than a hundred people, the so-called siege would have been broken long ago.

However, the current situation has greatly boosted the morale of the besieged coalition forces in the valley, and once again aroused their desire to defend and the will to break through.

"Days are getting harder and harder." Qin Jun's commander Meng Wu couldn't help sighing.

Although most of his army is old and weak, they are all composed of 14 or 15 year olds, or 50 or 60 year olds, but after all, there are still 200,000 people.

But up to now, there are only 30,000 people left, in the early 1/10s, and morale is low, supplies are in short supply, and it seems that they will not last long.

Thinking about the predicament and crisis that Qin is facing now, how can this not make him sigh?

He is already thinking about the retreat, how can he take away the 30,000 Qin army as much as possible and withdraw from the battlefield, so as to preserve more vitality for the Qin State, which is now stretched out in strength.
