Chapter 751 Mangshan, target Luoyang(2/2)
The big battlefields include Mangshan, Hulao Pass, Hetao, Youzhou, Monan, and countless small battlefields, and even the city defense troops and bandits participated in the war.
The Han Empire entered a chaotic northern war.
According to statistics from later historians, the troops invested in the Northern War may exceed four million, which was one of the five major battles during the reign of Emperor Wu of Xia!
"Cross the river, cross the river!"
The Wuqi army was on the north bank of the Yellow River and collected thousands of small wooden boats. The Yellow River canal fleet that had been prepared in Liyang, Puyang and other places went upstream and transported the 180,000 troops commanded by Wuqi to the south bank to attack Mangshan.
As long as you conquer Mangshan, Luoyang will be like an unprepared girl.
Teams of Wei Wushu wearing persistent Wei boarded a wooden boat and forced a crossing of the Yellow River at night. A small-scale battle with the Qin army stationed on the south bank of the Yellow River, killing and wounding thousands of people on both sides.
The Qin army retreated, and at dawn, the Wu Qi army successfully crossed the Yellow River.
"It's too easy to cross the river. The Qin army deliberately retreated, hoping to delay our 180,000 infantry and cavalry between the Mangshan Mountain and the Yellow River, and then cut off our retreat and wipe out our 180,000 infantry and cavalry..."
Wu Qi did not relax because he successfully crossed the Yellow River. On the contrary, this was Lao Qin and Jia Xu's strategy.
Luoyang is not that important to Lao Qin.
At this time, Luoyang was not the capital, but just the outer defense line of Chang'an. Even if Luoyang was lost, it was within the acceptable range of Lao Qin.
His purpose was to annihilate the 80,000 Wei Wushus from Wu Qi.
The threat of 80,000 Wei Wuzhang was too great.
In order to capture Luoyang, Wu Qi took the initiative to enter Lao Qin's plan.
If Lao Qin wanted to cut off Wu Qi's retreat, he needed to use Shile's Jie cavalry and Hedong cavalry to recover Hanoi County and complete the siege of Wu Qi.
However, Chu Tian personally commanded the Imperial Guards in the teleportation array of Hanoi County.
A team of cavalry with the defense of Tiefutu appeared. Monk Wanyan Chen's Zhongxiao Army and Heli Hejun were ordered to enter Hanoi County to protect Wu Qi's retreat so that Wu Qi would not have to let go of his hands and feet because he was worried that the food road would be cut off.
The scale of the Zhongxiao Army and the Heli He Army expanded, among which the Zhongxiao Army had one thousand cavalry and the Heli He army had seven thousand cavalry.
"Don't make a big fuss."
Chu Tian came out of the teleportation array and was wearing the armor of ordinary generals, which made people think that Chu Tian was just an ordinary general.
Xiao Chuo also changed into the armor of a military general and followed Chu Tian as a clerk.
In order to hide his whereabouts, Chu Tian did not even bring Dian Wei, the big ones.
Dian Wei's body shape is really too conspicuous.
