Chapter 2053: Luxurious lineup
"Xue Dingshan and Yue Yun are the same age. They have the same potential, the same strength, the same background, and they have always regarded each other as competitors.
Yue Yun has been following Yue Fei, fighting with his father. After being tempered in battles, he not only reached the peak attributes early, but also surpassed himself and became the God of War.
Xue Dingshan's potential is no lower than Yue Yun, but he has wasted a lot of time, and now he has been surpassed by Yue Fei in terms of force.
However, Xue Dingshan is still young and has taken some detours, but as long as he keeps catching up, he may not be unable to catch up with Yue Yun in the future. "
Qin Hao thought secretly in his heart and decided to train Xue Dingshan. After all, there are too few people like him who have high command and martial arts, good looks and general talents.
Qin Hao valued Xue Dingshan more than Yue Yun. After all, Yue Yun was a fierce general specializing in martial arts, and Xue Dingshan was not only strong in force, but also had the potential to become a famous general.
Between powerful generals and famous generals, famous generals are more popular after all. Even if the Qin Army is not short of famous generals, Qin Hao will not dislike having too many famous generals under his command.
The arrival of Xue Rengui made the Qin army's lineup stronger.
At present, the Qin army in Youbeiping can lead an army alone: Bai Qi, Xue Rengui, Su Dingfang, Huo Qubing, Long Qie, Wei Qing, and Gongsun Xuanyuan;
In addition to the above seven people, Qin Hao, as the lord, can also lead the army alone.
The military advisors include: Zhang Liang, Zhuge Liang, Liu Bowen, Wen Zhong, Tian Feng, Ju Sue, and Xun Kan;
In order to prepare for the final decisive battle with the Manchus, Qin Hao specially transferred Liu Bowen who had stayed in Tianjin Port, and also transferred Wen Zhong, Tian Feng, Xun Kan, Ju Shuo and others.
Although Tian Feng Jushou and others were appointed as prefects, it did not mean that they could not go to the front line. All they had to do was arrange the physical items in the county properly before leaving, or hand them over directly to the county magistrate.
As for the generals in the army, they are countless, including: Sun Lingming, Jia Fu, Lu Bu, Zhou Yafu, Zhang Han, Hu Luguang, Duan Shao, Jiang Ji, Luo Cheng, Qin Yi, Yue Xi, Li Jin, Yu Ziqi, Ding Yanping, Su Xian, Shi Bao, Pang Wanchun, Hulv Qiangju, Cao Jingzong, Zhu Ling, Bian Xiang, Han Xun, Tian Yu, Li Ling, Li Gan, Gongsun Yu, Gongsun He, Han Zeng, Xue Dingshan...
The above are all generals who are already in Youbeiping. The Qingzhou Navy, which is not in Youbeiping but can participate in the war, also has a large number of generals, such as: Zhou Yu, Qi Jiguang, Jintai, Taishi Ci, Lu Junyi, Guan Sheng, Lin Chong , Qin Ming, Hu Yanzhuo, Shi Wengong, Shi Jin...
————————
After learning some of the situation on the front line, Xue Rengui was immediately surprised. He couldn't believe that with the elite soldiers and generals on his own side gathered together, he had only defeated more than 20,000 Qing troops after fighting for so long. This really surprised him. .
Qin Hao saw Xue Rengui's doubts and explained to him: "When our army was on the defensive, the Qing army only surrounded but not attacked. But soon after the reinforcements arrived, the Manchu Qing turned offensive to defensive and rarely took the initiative to fight. Even if The number of troops deployed will not exceed five thousand.
Therefore, since the beginning of the war, there have been many battles between the enemy and ourselves, but the scale is very small. The largest one was only 5,000 people. "
"I see."
Xue Rengui showed a look of surprise, and at this moment Qin Hao said: "From the beginning of the war to the present, the battle situation in Youbeiping can be divided into two stages. In the first stage, Qing attacked Qin's defender; in the second stage, Qin attacked Qing's defender;
During these two stages, our army fought against the Manchus twenty-three times. The largest deployment of troops was the one to assist General Jia Fu. A total of 40,000 troops were dispatched, but the war did not officially begin.
In twenty-three battles, our army annihilated more than 20,000 enemies and killed 38 enemy generals, eight of whom died at the hands of General Jia Fu. Our army suffered more than 10,000 casualties, including four generals killed. Among them, there are two generals and two captains. "
At this point, Qin Hao walked to the sand table in the middle of the hall, pointed to the layout above, and continued: "There are still thirty armies left in the Qing Dynasty. Taking the two counties of Wuzhu and Junmi with a radius of a hundred miles, there are Fifty large camps were set up in dangerous areas such as mountains and rivers. The camps were connected and echoed from end to end. It could be said that they could advance, attack, retreat or defend.
Previously, the strength of our army was smaller than that of the Qing army. If we forcefully attack the strongholds and capture the fifty fortified strongholds one by one, our army will definitely suffer heavy casualties. Even if the Manchus are eventually expelled from Youbeiping, the gains will outweigh the losses.
Therefore, I have not launched a decisive battle for a long time, but am preparing to use strategies to lure the snake out of its hole.
However, Nurhachi was too cautious and did not fall for the temptation of our army. Even if he could not stand it, he would send troops to fight, and the number of troops would not be too large. This led to a stalemate on the front line.
Among the twenty-three battles, apart from the fighting generals, there were only five real close-quarters battles.
Now it seems that Nurhaci does not want our army to fight at all. The reason why he is sinking his troops is just to hold back the main force of our army and prevent the more than 200,000 elites from being dispatched to other places. "
"My lord is right."
Tian Feng stood up and said: "The Qing Dynasty's pre-war preparations are insufficient, and there are a large number of Liao soldiers in the army... Chen Guo surrendered his troops, and their combat power is weak. With such an army, it is impossible to defeat our army, let alone Let alone seizing Youzhou.”
Tian Feng originally wanted to talk about the Liao Kingdom, but when he saw Gongsun Xuanyuan frowning at him, he immediately realized that the Liao Kingdom had long been usurped by Gongsun Shu, and Chen Baxian usurped Liao as Chen, but was ignored by the local aristocratic family, so it was The Chen State surrendered to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, not the Liao State, so they quickly changed their tune.
After hearing what Tian Feng said, Qin Hao nodded and said in a deep voice: "Nurhachi knew this but still persisted. It can be seen that he just wanted to delay our army.
Nurhaci thought that he could afford it, but Qin could not afford it, but he did not know that our army could also afford it. Even if the stalemate lasted for a year and a half, our army would still be able to withstand it, but his Manchurian food and grass would definitely be able to withstand it. Not so long. "
Hearing Qin Hao's words, the generals were relieved. They were not afraid of going to war with the Qing Dynasty, but they were afraid that there would be insufficient food and grass during the war.
You know, the Qin army is currently fighting against the four major forces of Manchu, Tang, Chu, and Shu. With multi-front fighting, each front is consuming a large amount of food and grass, and the food and grass consumed every day is astronomical.
If the food and grass cannot support it, then it will not only affect one front, but all fronts will be affected. How can this prevent people from worrying?
Qin Hao knew the worries of the generals, so he directly told everyone that our food and grass were enough, so that everyone could fight with peace of mind.
However, although there was no problem with the Qin army's food and grass supply, an incident occurred that forced Qin Hao to end the war as soon as possible, and this incident resulted in Liu Xie's death.
