Chapter 677
Chapter 674 : The Desperate State of Qin
Zhang Kuang’s Yuan army thought it was a chance to win, but he didn’t expect that the soldiers and horses killed by Huo Qubing would flee like a bereavement dog.
Huo Qubing did it, and he did it!
But now is not the time to celebrate, he is leading troops to chase the rout of Yuan army.
Really think that Daxia’s territory is to come when you want to, and to leave when you want to go? Those who commit my Daxia, although they must be punishable, are you joking with this sentence?
After pursuing for more than a hundred miles, the war horse was so tired and panting, and the speed slowed down, Huo Qubing ordered the whole army to stop the pursuit.
What’s more important is that the Yuan army who fleeed has scattered and fled, Huo Qubing certainly can’t chase and kill indiscriminately in the grassland. He really thought it was a dog chasing rabbits and running around. His goal is very clear, only to chase Agu. It’s a pity that he didn’t catch up with this big rabbit, who ran faster than the rabbit, but Huo Qubing let go of an arrow and hit him in the back of the chest. Whether he could kill him or not depends on his luck.
Subsequently, Huo Qubing returned to defense.
In this battle, the Daxia cavalry killed more than 20,000 cavalry, not only repelled the elite cavalry of the Yuan army, but also killed 70,000 enemies, captured 20,000, and got more than 40,000 horses in good condition.
The head of the Yuan Ren was placed on the border of Mohe County, facing the grassland, deterring Yuan Guo.
The good news spread instantly throughout the Dongqi area, Huo Qubing’s name resounded across Daxia in an instant, and everyone gave their thumbs up.
He is only eighteen years old. With such achievements, no wonder your Majesty said that he will be brave in the future and the champion will succeed him.
The first march of the Yuan army suffered a disastrous defeat, and the news spread throughout the grasslands. The army led by the Khan of the Yuan Kingdom was about to arrive at the place, and it was directly met with a scream.
The Yuan Khan was furious. He cooperated with Qin this time, taking advantage of the Xia Guo’s soldiers and Ma Qingchao to attack Qin, he just took the opportunity to seize the Dongqi area. For this reason, the Yuan Khan, who has not left the royal court for many years, is personally conquered. , Who knew that the 150,000 elite cavalry who went ahead were defeated by the opponent.
If it weren’t for seeing Ah Gu hit the arrow and was dying, the Khan of the Yuan Dynasty would want to kill his brother alive.
But already here, the Khan of the Yuan Kingdom will not give up attacking the Dongqi area. If he really waits for the Kingdom of Xia to destroy the Kingdom of Qin, it will be a disaster for the Kingdom of Yuan. The emperor of the Kingdom of Xia has too much ambition to unify the Shenzhou.
Therefore, the Yuan Khan continued to march, preparing for a shame, and at the same time ordered Temujin, the leader of the Mongolian tribe in the west, to gather 200,000 troops and attack Daxia with him.
Since the Mongol tribes migrated to the west, they have developed into a very large power and attracted many tribes to go west. The entire western population has reached more than 8 million, accounting for one-third of the entire Yuan country.
This made the Yuan Khan very scared, because the Mongolian tribe became stronger and stronger, and it would be bad if he couldn’t suppress it in the future.
Therefore, the attack on Daxia this time was one of his tactics, using Daxia to weaken Temuzhen’s forces.
But what was unexpected to this Yuan Guo Khan was that when he was seven or eight hundred miles away from the Dongqi area, Huo Qubing, who had just won the victory, did not care to celebrate, and even rushed into the grassland with his surviving troops and rushed to Yuan Guo. Khan’s soldiers and horses.
This is still second.
At this time, the location of the Khan’s soldiers and horses of the Yuan Kingdom was just north of Ganzhou, so while Huo Qubing led the raid, Changsheng Hou Tian Boyuan and Zhenyuan Hou Han Ming also personally led their troops into the grassland early and went deep into the grassland for more than four hundred. Here, waiting for the arrival of the Yuan army, and then combined with Huo Qubing, launched an offensive against the Yuan Guo Khan.
In the past, Yuan Guo went south to plunder and wage wars on other people’s land. This time, the battlefield began in his territory, and he just applied for that sentence, and Feng Shui took turns.
Huo Qubing, Tian Boyuan, and Han Ming fought against the Khan of the Yuan Kingdom and severely tore off a large piece of each other’s flesh. Then they entangled for a few days, causing the Khan of the Yuan Kingdom to lose their soldiers and replace them. They waited until the Mongol tribe’s Tiemujin led troops to come to help, in advance. After receiving the news, Huo Qubing, Tian Boyuan and others withdrew their troops.
The reinforcements came, and when the Yuan Khan thought he could breathe a sigh of relief, Temujin fully exposed his wolf ambition at Guo Jia’s suggestion. Taking advantage of the Yuan Khan’s soldiers and horses not paying attention, he directly attacked him.
Temujin is ready to kill the Yuan Khan and become the new Khan of Yuan Kingdom!
So the infighting started.
In the end, the Khan of the Yuan Kingdom had a big life and fled eastward in a hurry under the protection of the cavalry.
Subsequently, Temujin, on Guo Jia’s suggestion, sent troops east to hunt down the Khan of the Yuan Kingdom. The Khan of the Yuan Kingdom has suffered a serious loss of troops. Now, when will it be better if it does not take over the court of the Yuan Kingdom?
In this way, the Yuan Dynasty’s civil unrest began, and Daxia was taken care of without any flaws.
When these news arrived in Qin, many days had passed since the New Year, and it had already entered the first three years without knowing it.
The middle road army that Xiao Rui was in had entered Xianyang County, only more than four hundred miles away from Qin Capital. The other seven roads are like open claws, and Qin Du is under the claws.
Xiao Rui was very pleased with Huo Qubing’s military exploits, and all expected it. Even if the number of the enemy was more than doubled, Xiao Rui had no doubts about Huo Qubing’s ability.
How can you be underestimated if you can be a champion in the history of China in the past life!
Now that the conspiracy between the Qin State and the Yuan State has come to an end, and the Yuan’s civil turmoil has begun, it is not a matter of a short while that Temuzhen wants to seize the royal court and become the new Khan. By then, Daxia would have solved the Qin State. .
Qin State put the big bargaining chips on Yuan Guo, but he did not expect Yuan Guo to lose so quickly and so badly. Now Qin’s military and people’s aspirations have completely fallen below the freezing point, and they can’t be lower anymore.
Their original strategy against Xia has automatically collapsed and dispersed their forces. Although Daxia’s speed was limited, they also lost these forces.
How much is Qin Du’s available troops now?
Xiao Rui fully believed that Qin Zheng, who was being pressed, could only choose to conscript troops, but the people were not soldiers after all, and forcing them to die, it was very likely that they would be forced to oppose them.
Don’t forget, in such a cold winter, the people are still harvesting nothing. Spring will begin soon. The people are all conscripted. Who will plant the land?
But now Xiao Rui is more curious about Qin Zheng’s expression, is it desperate or angry?
Unfortunately I can’t see it anymore.
…….
The majestic Qin Capital Palace.
When news of the Yuan army’s civil strife and flawless consideration of Daxia came to Qindu, Qindu was quiet, and even the girls in the fireworks field were sad.
Who said that they don’t know the danger of national subjugation, and only sing backyard flowers? They are also very sad. Look, there are no guests to visit.
The fireworks women are full of sorrow, not to mention the civil and military officials, who are worried and worried about becoming the people of the country.
Marshal Meng Tian hurried back to the capital of Qin and entered the palace to plead guilty. They pin their hopes on Yuan Guo, and now their hope is shattered, leaving only despair.
When Meng Tian walked into the Golden Temple, raised his head, and watched Qin Zhengduan sitting on the Golden Temple, his eyes were empty, and the six gods had no master.
Meng Tian hurriedly lowered his head and bowed down and said: “The criminal minister Meng Tian kowtowed to your Majesty. The criminal minister has failed in command, and he implores your sin.”
The voice circled the beams in the empty golden hall. After a long time, Qin Zheng returned to his senses and asked, “Meng Aiqing, how many troops do we have?”
“Return your Majesty, the army outside the city plus the forbidden army, there are still two hundred thousand.” Meng Tian told the truth.
The expression on Qin Zheng’s face finally recovered, it was a kind of sadness that was more than heartbreaking: “Dignified Qin, with more than one million troops, there are only 200,000 left? What about the others, it will not be too big. Xia kill it!”
Meng Tian sighed: “Return to your Majesty, less than one-fifth of the people who died on the battlefield for the country’s loyalty, two-fifths of those captured by Daxia, and the remaining troops are reduced to deserters.”
Qin Zheng quickly asked, “What if we continue to conscript? All counties in the east have fallen, and there are still several counties in the west, and Daqin still has Erlang who can fight!”
Meng Tian said, “Your Majesty, the people are in turmoil now. Once the conscription is forced, spring plowing will happen soon. I’m afraid the people will riot.”
“That’s not okay, that’s not okay, do you want me to sit here and watch Xia Guo’s soldiers and horses come in?” Qin Zheng suddenly roared.
Meng Tian knelt there and said: “Your Majesty, Xia Jun has already entered King Xian County, and the Weichen suggested that your Majesty move to Kunlun County.”
Kunlun County is the westernmost county in the Qin Kingdom. Relying on the Kunlun Mountains and the Tianshan Mountains, it is really the westernmost part of the Shenzhou mainland.
Qin Zheng couldn’t help but smiled bitterly, and said, “After escaping to Kunlun County, can I go further west?”
Meng Tian said: “Your Majesty, when the spring ploughing is over, we will be able to conscript troops to resist the Xia army, so time is very important to us. In addition, Weichen suggested that the treasury granary should be completely released. If anyone is willing to become a soldier, reward food to encourage the people! ”
Qin Zheng’s eyes lit up, this is indeed a good way.
Before Xia Guo attacked, the grain in the granary in the eastern state treasury of Qin State had been transported away, so Daxia did not take it. In the past few years, Qin State has opened warehouses and consumed a lot of food. The cost of storing for several years has also consumed a lot, but there is still some left, which is much better than Qi State’s situation at the beginning.
If they were paid for food, it would indeed attract some poor Baixins to join the army, and then forcibly recruit some soldiers. According to Meng Tian’s calculations, he should be able to make up another 500,000 army.
In this way, there will be an army of 700,000, and it will be able to resist Xia Jun again.
Qin Zheng also understood that it was useless to keep grain. In case the country was destroyed, the grain would be reserved for Daxia, so he immediately agreed with Meng Tian’s suggestion This matter is under the full responsibility of Meng Tian, and the Ministry of Households is in charge of this matter. The State Treasury fully supports it.
At the same time, Qin Zheng’s mind became active. He had the idea of retreating. Perhaps the longer the delay, the better for him.
At the same time, in the harem.
He also heard the news of Yuanguo’s defeat. He was stunned, and his hesitant thoughts immediately made up his mind.
“Qin is going to die, what else should I think about!”
“In the future, Xia Guo will unify China, and a marquis position is enough for me to be happy.”
During this period of time, Lao Lao had been uncertain about her idea, especially when Zhao Ji gave birth to a son, which made Lao Lao reluctant to give up her original plan.
But now, the facts have forced Lao Lao to make the right choice, and the State of Qin is no longer able to stop Da Xia.
In addition, his son has already been born. Although it’s a bit early to kill Qin Zheng, it’s also appropriate. In case of summer, the State of Qin can’t be destroyed. Then Zhao Ji will listen to politics and his son will be the emperor of the State of Qin. .
