After dividing the 200,000-strong army, the logistical pressure on the Hebei Qin Army was also much reduced.
You know, the Qin army was in Hebei before, with an army of 620,000.
An army of 620,000 people. Such a huge army can eat a small mountain of food and grass every day.
Although the two states of Hebei and Qing Dynasty are both wealthy states, they have just experienced the war and have not yet recovered from the war. Naturally, they cannot afford the food and grass for the 620,000-strong army.
Even if Qin Hao has reorganized the writing style of Ji Qing, the current thirteen counties of Ji Qing can bear up to half of the grain and grass for the 620,000 Qin army, and the other half of the grain and grass still needs to be transported from Bingzhou.
To transport grain from Bingzhou to Jizhou, you need to cross the Taihang River. Coupled with such a huge transportation volume, Bingzhou is naturally under a lot of transportation pressure.
Now that Li Jing's twenty-strong army is missing, although the Qin army is still unable to be self-sufficient in Hebei, the pressure on transporting grain and grass to Bingzhou is much less.
After the meeting, Qin Hao couldn't wait to read through the system prompts, and after checking for several hours, he finally found several pieces of useful information from nearly a thousand system prompts, namely: Li Cunxiao has broken through the Grand Master, Li Cunxiao
Burning the inner strength, and the achievements achieved by Li Cunxiao.
Information from Hangu Pass and Luoyang both said that Li Cunxiao's whereabouts were unknown and he was suspected to have died in the battle.
Qin Hao naturally didn't believe this. After all, with Li Cunxiao's strength, if he didn't actively seek death, even Li Tang's 150,000-strong army wouldn't be able to kill him.
Of course, it is an indisputable fact that Li Cunxiao is missing, so Qin Hao is still a little worried.
However, after seeing these system prompts, Qin Hao was completely relieved.
[Ding dong, Li Cunxiao single-handedly held off 150,000 Tang troops, and almost killed the Tang king Li Shimin five times. He achieved the achievement "Unparalleled in the World" and was rewarded with a Hundred Call Card (foreign race). Li Cunxiao's five-dimensional attribute is permanently 1.
Since Li Cunxiao's force attribute has reached 111, which exceeds the system's increase limit, he cannot increase his force. The force increase will be increased to the commander's attribute.
Current Xiao Li Cunxiao: Commander 95 (2), Force 111 (2), Intelligence 77 (2), Politics 68 (1), Charisma 100 (2).】
If Li Cunxiao died, it would naturally be impossible to achieve the achievement of being 'unparalleled in the world'. It would be a matter of killing 'Li Cunxiao, the best in the world', and achieving such and such an achievement.
But since he did not have the achievement of killing the best in the world, it means that Li Cunxiao is definitely still alive, but he was injured and could not return to the army for the time being.
Through the intelligence from Hangu Pass and Luoyang, as well as the analysis prompted by the system, it was not difficult to guess with Qin Hao's intelligence that Li Cunxiao, who had burned up his internal strength, might have disabled the senior officials of the Tang Dynasty alone.
Since Li Cunxiao could almost kill Li Shimin five times, the generals of Li Tang would definitely fight to the death to protect Li Shimin. And Li Cunxiao, who was in a state of burning internal energy, was basically unstoppable, so he must have inflicted heavy damage on the top management of Li Tang.
Qin Hao was secretly excited about this. After all, Li Tang's strength was not weak. Li Cunxiao, who was in an invincible state, naturally tried his best to weaken Li Tang as much as possible. After all, the chance to burn off his inner strength only came once every few years.
"It's a pity that I couldn't kill Li Shimin five times. This guy's life must be too harsh."
Qin Hao sighed lightly, and then became excited again.
Li Tang's top management has been defeated by Li Cunxiao, and Li Shimin's three "God's Blessings" have also been destroyed. With the reinforcements led by Li Jing, Li Shimin might be able to stay in Sizhou.
The only person in Li Tang who could make Qin Hao fear him was Li Shimin. Once Li Shimin died in battle, the entire Tang state would not have anything to worry about.
The next day, Qin Hao summoned Zhang Liang, Liu Bowen, and Zhuge Liang's three military advisors, as well as Bai Qi, Su Dingfang, and Xue Rengui to convene a new round of Youzhou strategy.
Guo Jia did not attend this meeting because he took the initiative to join Li Jing's army.
Huo Qubing and his cavalry regiment were still confronting Wei Qing in Daijun, so they did not attend this meeting.
"Everyone, although the strength of our army in Hebei has dropped to 420,000, our morale is high and we are united."
Qin Hao re-photographed the document and said confidently: "Don't say that Liu Che didn't join forces with the Manchus, even if he joined forces with our army, he would still not be afraid.
Let’s talk about it, how should we fight this battle?”
Su Dingfang, Xue Rengui and other generals spoke one after another, but the strategies they proposed had some flaws. In the end, the final grand strategic layout still relied on top counselors such as Zhang Liang and Zhuge Liang.
"Lord, although our army has 420,000 troops in Hebei, the 60,000 troops in Qingbei are reorganized and cannot be moved, so the actual available troops are only 360,000."
Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly and said calmly: "Our army's current strength is twice that of the Northern Han Dynasty, but it is less than the total strength of the Northern Han, Manchu and Qing Dynasties.
Considering that Liu Che had not formed an alliance with the Manchus, our army still had an absolute advantage in strength even as we defeated them one by one.
However, our army cannot help but consider the possibility that Liu Che will suddenly change his mind and form an alliance with the Manchus.
Therefore, according to Yi Liang, our army only needs to dispatch 200,000 troops to deal with the Northern Han Dynasty, and the remaining 160,000 fresh troops are used to defend the Manchu and Qing Dynasties to prevent the Qing army from intervening in the Youzhou battle at any time.
"
"With this arrangement, the insurance is safe, but..."
Qin Hao tapped his fingers on the table and asked to himself: "The Northern Han Dynasty still has 180,000 troops. With only 200,000 troops, can the Northern Han Dynasty be destroyed before winter?"
Zhuge Liang, Liu Bowen and Zhang Liang looked at each other and smiled, and said: "My Lord, you have overestimated the combat power of the Northern Han Army.
Among the 180,000 Northern Han army today, more than 80,000 are new recruits who have been trained for less than two months and rushed into battle.
In addition, the equipment of these new armies is not complete, and the armor readiness rate is no more than 10%. How can such an army be our opponent?
The new army of the Northern Han Dynasty can be used to defend the city. If it is a field battle, our army only needs to use 10,000 troops to easily defeat 80,000.
Among the 180,000 troops of the Northern Han Dynasty, Wei Qing's 100,000 Yan troops were not the only ones worthy of a battle.
But now that the entire Northern Han Dynasty is surrounded by our army, Wei Qing is isolated and unable to survive. Can he defend Dai County, or other places?
Sending out 200,000 troops to deal with the Northern Han Dynasty is more than enough."
After hearing Zhuge Liang's words, Qin Hao also realized that he had indeed overestimated Liu Che. If the 200,000-strong army, which was armed to the teeth, could not defeat Liu Che's 100,000 main force and 80,000 recruits, then Bai Qi, who was basically in command of 106
