"This general has received news that the Jin army's war in central Shu is coming to an end. Li Jing will soon lead 150,000 troops to return for reinforcements!" Han Xin waved his hand to stop several generals who were in a strange mood, and said with a heavy heart.
Although they broke Xuanyuan Pass and even forced the Jin army to voluntarily abandon the other eight passes in Luoyang, they still wasted too much time in Sizhou in the end.
Under Li Xiang's tactics of all-in-one resistance and layer-by-layer resistance, just cleaning up the counties around Luoyang wasted a considerable amount of the coalition's energy and strength.
When they finally reached the gates of Luoyang City, it looked like the war was about to end.
As one of the most powerful espionage agencies in the world, Black Ice Platform is still quite strong. Even though its power in Yizhou is obviously quite weak, some news that has already gone viral in Yizhou can still be released in a timely manner.
spread out.
It is also obvious information, but the speed of intelligence transmission is also an important factor in testing the specific capabilities of an intelligence agency.
Obviously, in this aspect, Heibingtai's ability is absolutely passable.
"Hiss!" After hearing this information, many generals took a breath!
The biggest disadvantage of the Jin army is its military strength, but if the war in Yizhou ends and the hundreds of thousands of troops conquering Shu are liberated, then this only disadvantage of the Jin army will no longer exist.
"What does this Liu Che do for a living? He has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and sits in the dangerous land of Bashu, and he can actually fight the war into such a mess!" Yuan Shao said with an even more gloomy expression.
Although all the hundreds of thousands of troops conquering Shu have not returned yet, the 150,000 Li Jing brought back, whether placed on the Jingbei battlefield or the Sizhou battlefield, is enough to change the situation between the enemy and ourselves!
At such a critical time, no matter who hears such bad news, I'm afraid they won't be in a good mood!
Not only Yuan Shao, most of the people present despised Liu Che more or less, and all the famous generals in Shu!
In fact, the advantage of Yizhou's dangerous mountains and rivers is too great, especially in terms of defense. In addition, Liu Che is the most powerful prince besides Li Xiang, with hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, but this
It has only been a little over a year, but the territory has already been lost!
Everyone present believed that if they defended Yizhou, they would never turn this battle into such a mess!
"The matter has come to this, it's useless to say more, let's think about what to do next?" Di Qing stared at the crowd and said.
Once Li Jing's 150,000 troops entered Sizhou, the military advantage of the coalition of princes was completely lost. As an offensive party, but against a defensive party with the same strength, even Han Xin did not have this confidence. After all, everyone knew that they were
Family matters, there is no tacit understanding between their coalition.
If all the troops and horses now fully obey his command, Han Xin still has a certain degree of confidence. If the coalition forces are like this in a fight, even Han Xin will not have the confidence to continue the attack.
"If we didn't burn all the passes, why would we be like this now?" Guan Yu sighed.
In order to prevent Yuan Shao from getting the better of him, Han Xin and Guan Yu burned all the eight passes in Luoyang. Except for Hangu Pass, they were still under the control of the Jin army.
In addition, almost all the remaining levels were harmed by them.
At this time, if these checkpoints are not destroyed, as long as they can firmly hold these checkpoints in their hands, they can block Li Jing's returning reinforcements with the smallest force. If they can persist until Luoyang is defeated, this battle will
It’s not a loss for the coalition forces!
However, how could they have expected that Li Jing would attack Yizhou so quickly!
It is no wonder that Li Jing made such rapid progress. After the princes of the world united, they surpassed the Jin army in terms of military strength and the number of generals and counselors, and even exceeded it by a considerable amount, so that the Jin army, especially
On the battlefield in Jingbei, they focused on one thing and lost the other.
But after all, it has not reached the point of being crushed, or far from being crushed. Therefore, although the Jin army has suffered many losses, it can still fight back and forth, and it can take advantage when it should.
Cheap. Zhuge Liang even launched a miraculous counterattack.
But over in Yizhou, in addition to its superiority in military strength, the Jin army also crushed the Shu army in terms of the quality of its generals and counselors!
Who are the commanders in the Shu army? And what about the Jin army? Just in terms of the number of god-level commanders, how many did the Jin army use in this conquest of the Shu army?
Li Jing, Wu Qi, Wei Qing, Wang Jian, even if these people are taken individually, who among the generals in Yizhou can compare?
In order to ensure the logistics of the army conquering Shu, Guan Zhong and Wei Yang, two figures who were almost at the top of politics, personally participated in maintaining the logistics. Although these two men did not go to the front line of the battlefield in person during this battle, these two
Individuals have also participated in this battle through direct or indirect means.
Although generals such as Shi Gandang and Zhao Yun were later transferred out, there are still a large number of powerful generals such as Li Cunxiao, Yuwen Chengdu, Jia Fu, Xiong Yan, Huang Zhong, Li Yu, Luo Ren, etc.
Sending so many generals to the battlefield of the Shu army, instead of arranging them to the Sizhou battlefield, which is also short of manpower, or the Jingbei battlefield, isn't it just to speed up the Yizhou battlefield! This battle, from the beginning
, it is essentially a speed war to see which side is faster!
"In my opinion! The only plan now is to start from Nanyang! Block Li Jing's reinforcements outside Sizhou, or force Li Jing to change his route!" Gongsun Yan said with a slight change in his expression.
Among the current Northern Allied Forces, apart from Han Xin, Gongsun Yan is definitely one of the strongest, even if his talent is not the strongest.
Therefore, he quickly thought of the right way to alleviate this crisis.
The road in the middle of Shu is difficult. Even if Li Jing's reinforcements are thought of, it will definitely take a long time. The fastest way is to retreat to Hanzhong first, and then follow Wang Jian's original attack.
By taking the route into Hanzhong and going all the way down the river, we can evacuate Yizhou in the shortest time.
Besides this route, the fastest route is probably just to return to Yongzhou via those plank roads, and then return to Sizhou from Yongzhou.
Compared with the first route, the following routes represent one and a half months. Or even nearly two months.
