Chapter 2687: The Eighteen Gods of War fight, Wenyang goes crazy riding alone

Yingchuan, Yangdi.

After the Qin army captured Yangdi, they did not pursue the victory and continue to attack the counties in central Yingchuan. Instead, they rested on the spot, digested the results of the victory, and integrated resources.

After several days of integration, it was calculated that the grain and grass seized in Yangzhai and other 11 counties were enough for the Qin army to attack Yingchuan for two months, which greatly reduced the Qin army's logistical pressure.

In addition, Cao Wei took the initiative to abandon the Erban Pass, so that when the Qin army's logistics troops transported supplies, they no longer had to take the long way through Guangcheng Pass. They could take a shortcut through Dagong Pass, and no longer had to worry about insufficient military supplies. And worried.

At present, except for the remaining troops, the main force in the rear has arrived in Yangzhai. It will only wait for the supplies to arrive in a few days before they can march again to Xuchang.

While Ying Hao was reorganizing, Han Xin's troops had also captured Kunyang City. The only fly in the ointment was that Xue Ju burned all the granaries and material warehouses in Kunyang City before retreating, and burned them thoroughly. , the Qin army failed to capture a grain of grain.

 So, Han Xin needs to deal with the mess in Kunyang before he can march to Xuchang without any worries.

It was difficult to dispatch a large army, so Han Xin ordered Huang Tianxiang to lead an army of 15,000 to go north to attack Xiangcheng and other places in the middle of Yingchuan.

After Cao Bin and Cao GUI defeated Han Xin, they were also worried that Han Xin would find their traces and go north to entangle them, so they chose to withdraw their troops early, so that Xiangcheng and other places were basically empty cities.

After Huang Tianxiang led his army to the north, he encountered almost no resistance and took over many cities such as Xiangcheng and Sicheng. By the time they reached Yingyang City, there were only 10,000 troops left under his command, and the missing 5,000 troops were all gone. He stayed in the new cities.

Yingyang City and other defenders were also taken away by Zhang Guifang who retreated from Shu City. It was just an empty city. The county magistrate also did not offer any resistance. Huang Tianxiang's army had not yet arrived, so he opened the city and surrendered.

After Huang Tianxiang occupied Yingyang City, he wanted to continue fighting eastward, but was stopped by Han Xin because if he went further north, the battle line would be too long and it would be easy to be ambushed.

Huang Tianxiang had no choice but to stop his advance and stay where he was, waiting for the main force in the rear. What he didn't know was that Han Xin's caution saved his life.

At the Fenqiu boundary east of Yingyang, Cao Bin had ordered Zhang Guifang to set up an ambush here, waiting for Huang Tianxiang to rush in greedily and take the initiative to run into the trap. Unfortunately, Han Xin predicted it in advance.

The Qin Dynasty dispatched the Eighth Route Army to attack the Three Kingdoms of the Central Plains. Among them, the two armies of Ying Hao and Han Xin were the most successful. The offensive in Yingchuan was a great success.

Ying Hao and Han Xin only need to rest and consolidate the captured gains before they can join forces and attack Xuchang, Cao Wei's last line of defense in Yingchuan.

At this juncture, another great news came from the Song Dynasty battlefield in the south.

Xue Rengui defeated Zhao Kuangyin's 150,000 troops head-on in Geling, Runan, with an army of 35,000, and killed 30,000 enemies.

As soon as this news came out, not only the morale of the Qin army that invaded Runan soared, but also the Qin army in Yingchuan was also excited.

"Oh my god, thirty-five thousand against one hundred and fifty thousand? You still won. Rengui is really powerful." Huang Zhong said with a shocked look on his face.

During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Huang Zhong, Xue Rengui, and Ying Hao were imprisoned in Xinye Prison by Xiang Yu. Later, the three of them escaped together. It was precisely because of this experience that the relationship between Huang Zhong and Xue Rengui was particularly good.

Not only Huang Zhong, but also generals such as Qin Ji, Lu Bu, Zhao Yun, and Arthur were all shocked when they learned the news of the Battle of Ge Ling.

After all, although the Qin Army’s cavalry has strong combat effectiveness, the Song Army’s combat effectiveness is not weak either, and the Song Army is not without cavalry, and the number is as high as 15,000.

Xue Rengui dared to fight with 35,000 cavalry and Zhao Kuangyin's 150,000 infantry. This courage and courage alone are not possessed by ordinary generals.

Among the generals of the Yingchuan Qin Army, Zhao Yun, Lu Bu, Huang Zhong and other generals were all thinking, if they were in Xue Rengui's position, would they dare to be as bold as Xue Rengui?

 The final conclusion we reached was that we didn’t dare. First, the risk was too great, and second, we were not sure of winning.

But Xue Rengui not only dared, but also won the battle. This alone was more than one step ahead of them. It's no wonder that he was the governor and they were just the leading generals.

 But after reading all the contents in the battle report, the Qin generals in Yingchuan realized how thrilling Xue Rengui had won this battle.

Even Ying Hao couldn't help but sigh: "God is really helping me, the Qin Dynasty."

In the battle of Ge Ling, Zhao Kuangyin had more than 150,000 cavalry under his command, and the general lineup was even full. The gods of war alone included six people: Lu Wenlong, Yamata no Orochi, Shuten Doji, Gao Siji, Luo Xuan, and Zhao Kuangyin.

Among them: Yamata no Orochi is also the high-level war **** of Kibu 107, the four generals Lu Wenlong, Shuten Doji, Gao Siji, and Luo Xuan are all the intermediate war gods of Kibu 106, and Zhao Kuangyin is the junior war **** of Kibu 105.

In addition to the God of War, there are more generals in the Song Army, including: Gao Huaide, Luo Yanqing, Wang Mo, Yang Sen, Gao Youqian, Li Xingba, Zhu Zhao, Gao Zhen, Fang Gui, Wang Jiao, Liu Huan, etc. .

The Song army is full of fierce generals. On the other hand, the Qin army is at an absolute disadvantage in terms of military strength, and the general lineup is also inferior to the Song army on the surface.

Although the Qin army has six war-god-level generals: Xue Rengui, Yang Zaixing, Pei Yuanqing, Yue Yun, Qin Yong, and Gao Chong, except for the hidden ace Gao Chong, the other five are all junior war gods with a base strength of 105.

As for the divine generals, there are only six: Wenyang, Zhang Xiu, Sikong Changfeng, Luo Ying, Luo Chang, and Wenpin, which are much fewer than the Song army.

The Song Army's military strength was more than four times that of the Qin Army, and its generals were stronger. However, even with this disadvantage, Xue Rengui still defeated Zhao Kuangyin.

The reason why Xue Rengui was able to do this, in addition to his precise control of cavalry combat and Lin Xiangru's reasonable planning, was mainly due to the increase in the two powerful combination skills of 'Four Fierce Eight Hammers' and 'Four Divine Spears' .

 Pei Yuanqing, Yue Yun, and Qin Yong, the three generals, with the increase of "Four Fierce and Eight Hammers", are equivalent to three mid-level war gods with a basic weapon of 106. The four generals Yang Zaixing, Zhang Xiu, Wen Yang, and Sikong Changfeng, with the increase of the 'Four Divine Spears', the latter three are also equivalent to two primary gods of war with a basic weapon of 105, and Yang Zaixing is equivalent to a basic weapon of 106 Intermediate God of War.

In other words, the Qin army actually had eight war-god-level generals in this battle. Among them, the high-level war **** only had Gao Chong. The mid-level war gods included Pei Yuanqing, Yue Yun, Qin Yong, and Yang Zaixing. The junior war gods included There are two people, Zhang Xiu and Sikong Changfeng.

Of course, the Qin army has combination skills, and the Song army also has them.

The Four Saints of Kowloon Island: Wang Mo, Yang Sen, Gao Youqian, and Li Xingba, the increase in the combo skill "Four Dragons Sealing Demons" is also equivalent to the four primary gods of war.

In other words, there are actually ten war-god-level warriors in the Song Army. Except for Zhao Kuangyin, who did not participate in the battle in the early stage, the other nine have participated in the battle.

Xue Rengui actually has to thank Zhao Kuangyin for not going to the battlefield in person at the beginning, otherwise the outcome of this battle may have been rewritten.

But even if Zhao Kuangyin did not fight, the Song Army was still slightly stronger than the Qin Army in terms of high-end combat power, and was stronger than the Qin Army in terms of mid-level combat power.

 In this extremely disadvantageous situation, Xue Rengui was still able to win, mainly due to two people, Gao Chong and Wen Yang.

Had it not been for Gao Chong to fight one against two, blocking the most powerful Yamata no Orochi in the Song army, as well as Shuten Doji, Xue Rengui would not have been able to win this battle no matter what.

In addition, the most eye-catching performance in this battle was not war gods such as Yue Yun, nor Zhang Xiu, the peak general, but Wen Yang of Jiwu 102.

With the increase of the four divine spears, Wenyang has not reached the level of a junior **** of war, but he can still exhaust the peak generals of Kiwu 104. Such strength obviously cannot influence the direction of this war.

But precisely because Wen Yang's early performance was not very strong, Zhao Kuangyin did not pay attention to him. In the later stages of the war, Wen Yang almost went crazy.

 The Qin army was inferior to the Song army in terms of military strength and general lineup. This is an indisputable fact. This is why military advisor Lin Xiangru was shot by an arrow and Wen Yang's father Wen Qin died in battle.

Wen Qin was just a first-rate military general. In this battle where the gods of war were everywhere and the generals were inferior to dogs, he might die if he encountered a stronger Song general, let alone the eight most powerful generals in the Song army. It's a big snake.

On the first day of the Battle of Geling, Gao Chong singled out Yamata no Orochi and Shuten Doji, and the two sides drew a draw. The two armies withdrew and returned to their respective camps. However, Zhao Kuangyin later sent Yamata no Orochi to attack the Qin camp at night.

The reason why Zhao Kuangyin sent Yamata-no-Orochi to go was naturally because he saw that Yamata-no-Orochi was impure. Once the Song State was at a disadvantage in the confrontation with the Qin State, the Yamata-Norochi would probably be the first to rebel, so Only then would he be sent to attack at night to make him enmity with Da Qin, thereby completely cutting off his intention to surrender to Qin.

　　Yama no Orochi also guessed Zhao Kuangyin’s intention. Although he was reluctant, he did not directly dare to disobey Zhao Kuangyin. He could only obey the order and lead the army to sneak attack.

Naturally, the Yamata no Orochi would not completely offend the Qin Dynasty, so he just wanted to show off and retreat after a wave of killings. After all, the Qin army had a high favor in charge, and it was unrealistic for him to rely on night attacks to break it.

But what he never expected was that the small guard camp he killed casually would turn out to be Wen Qin, the brother of the famous Qin general Wen Pin and the father of Wen Yang.

Wen Qin's death allowed Wen Yang to gain another increase in "flesh and blood" after the "Four Divine Spears". Not only did his base strength rise to 103, but his combat power also reached the level of a mid-level war **** of 106.

On the second day of the Battle of Ge Ling, Zhao Kuangyin did not know that Wen Yang, whose biological father had died, was no longer what he used to be.

 Zhao Kuangyin didn't pay much attention to Wen Yang and still adopted yesterday's fighting method. The result was a chaotic fight among the other seventeen gods of war, but Wen Yang alone went crazy.

With the support of the 'Four Divine Spears' and 'Tie of Bones and Flesh', Wenyang is considered strong among the mid-level war gods with a basic strength of 106. Ordinary generals are not his enemies at all.

Wen Yang attacked with hatred and showed no mercy. He could not fight for three rounds and even killed the three great generals Zhu Zhao, Gao Zhen and Fang Gui.

Zhao Kuangyin also reacted quickly. After three generals were killed in a row, and Wen Yang wreaked havoc in the army, he immediately sent two top generals, Gao Huaide and Luo Yanqing, to snipe Wen Yang.

Gao Huaide and Luo Yanqing were able to kill the junior God of War when they joined forces. However, facing the red-eyed Wen Yang, they could not stop him for fifty rounds and were seriously injured and fled.

At this time, Zhao Kuangyin finally realized that something was wrong. Wen Yang behaved like two people before and after. He felt that Wen Yang and Gao Chong were both Xue Rengui's hidden secret weapons, and yesterday he was just deliberately hiding his clumsiness.

Zhao Kuangyin, who thought he had been fooled, began to take Wen Yang seriously, and sent Gao Siji and Jiuting Tongzi from Jiwu 106 to deal with Wen Yang. When they arrived, Wen Yang killed two great generals, Wang Jiao and Liu Huan. .

The Qin army faced off against the Song army of 150,000 troops with 30,000 troops. The troops were too tight and they could only rely on generals to make up for the lack of troops. It was difficult to spare generals to support Wen Yang.

The general Xue Rengui had no choice but to go into battle in person to help Wen Yang fend off the Shutun boy. After a hard battle, he finally consumed most of the Song army's physical energy and persisted until Wenpin's five thousand cavalry arrived on the battlefield. Only then did we have this miraculous victory of thirty-five thousand defeated by one hundred and fifty thousand.

In the Battle of Ge Ling, although Xue Rengui defeated Zhao Kuangyin's 150,000 army with 35,000 Qin cavalry and won victory, he also paid a heavy price.

Not only were eight thousand cavalry lost, but even military advisor Lin Xiangru was hit by arrows and eventually died of serious injuries.

In addition to Lin Xiangru, Wen Yang's father Wen Qin died at the hands of the Yamata no Orochi, Luo Ying died in the siege of the Four Saints of Kowloon Island, and Luo Chang was beheaded by Lu Wenlong...
