The arrival of Han Xin's 70,000 Hebei Army and Zhao Jun's 30,000 Hetao Army brought the total strength of the Qin Army on the front line to 170,000. Although it was still less than the Shu-Chu Allied Army, the strength gap had also narrowed to 30,000.
.
Although the Qin army was 30,000 fewer than the coalition forces, Yue Fei was still sure of victory, and his confidence naturally lay in the cavalry.
With the addition of Zhao Yun's 30,000 Hetao cavalry, the total number of Qin army's cavalry increased to 40,000.
Although the total number of cavalry of the Shu-Chu coalition was 35,000, their combat power was not comparable to that of the Qin army.
Zhao Yun's 30,000 Hetao cavalry are elite cavalry that gallop on the grasslands. They have defeated Yuanmeng cavalry, Xiliang cavalry and other powerful armies. It can be said without mercy that they are one of the top cavalry in the world.
The cavalry formed by the two countries of Shu and Chu has not been established for a long time. The second cavalry has never fought hard battles. The tactics of the third cavalry are still in the past. There is still a long way to go before they can become fine cavalry. How could it be possible?
The opponent of the Hetao Iron Cavalry.
Yue Fei used to be able to compete head-on with the 30,000 coalition cavalry with his 3,000 Wei troops and 7,000 Jingzhou cavalry. Now that the total number of cavalry under his command has soared to 40,000, how could he lose to the 35,000 coalition cavalry?
Of course, in addition to Han Xin, whose cavalry and military skills were not weaker than his own, among the reinforcements, the ones that Yue Fei liked most were Jiang Song, Yuwen Chengdu, Zhao Yun and other powerful generals.
Why had the Qin army been suppressed by the Shu-Chu coalition forces before? In addition to being at an absolute disadvantage in terms of military strength, the Qin army was also far inferior to the coalition forces in terms of generals.
There are two super-god generals and two god-of-war generals on the Shu-Chu side, namely Xingtian, Houyi, Kuafu under Liu Ji, and Chong Heihu under Liu Xiu.
On the Qin army's side, there are only two war gods, Yue Yun and Pei Yuanqing. Even if the general Yue Fei is added, there are only three war gods.
In addition, although there were Qin Qiong, Yuchi Gong, Wenpin, Yang Zaixing and others in the Qin army in Jingzhou, there were also fierce generals such as Peng Yue, Fan Kuai, Ma Yuan and Wei Wentong in the coalition army.
The number of generals at the level of god generals is about the same on both sides, but in terms of top generals, the coalition army is much stronger than the Qin army.
Xing Tian alone is an opponent that Yue Yun, Pei Yuanqing, Qin Yong, and Xiong Tianqing cannot defeat together. If a war breaks out, who will be the one to resist the other enemy generals?
In the Battle of Jingbei, the Qin army suffered more casualties than the Allied forces. In addition to having fewer troops than the Allied forces, another major reason was that its generals were not as good as the Allied forces.
Now Han Xin has arrived in Jingbei with reinforcements, and there are many masters among the reinforcements.
Not only are there two super god generals, Jiang Song and Yuwen Chengdu, but there are also four gods of war, Zhao Yun, Huang Tianhua, Huang Tianxiang, and Huang Tianlu. In addition, there are also god generals such as Huang Zhong, Zheng Lun, and Chen Qi.
Let's put it this way, the Qin army was originally at a disadvantage in terms of generals, but with the addition of generals from Han Xin's reinforcements, the final shortcomings were completely made up. Naturally, there was nothing to fear from the Shu-Chu coalition.
Yue Fei wanted to take the lead immediately after hosting the reception banquet for Han Xin, but before he could take action, the Chu-Shu coalition took the initiative to knock on the door.
"Grand Governor, Shu General Xing Tian has led an army of three thousand and is calling for formation outside the camp."
Hearing this, Yue Fei and Han Xin put down their wine glasses at the same time. Han Xin said: "I heard that Xing Tian, the most powerful general in the Shu Kingdom, is ranked third in the generals' gang, but his strength is not weaker than the first or second. I don't know if this rumor is true.
It’s fake.”
Yue Fei replied with a serious face: "Although Xing Tian lost to Li Yuanba before, the gap in strength between the two is actually not big. Now that Xing Tian has made a breakthrough again, his strength is even greater than before, but now it is difficult to compare."
The bad comparison mentioned by Yue Fei refers to the fact that Xing Tian's strength has improved, while Li Yuanba has retreated due to his broken arm, implying that Li Yuanba is no longer Xing Tian's opponent.
"In the past several battles with the enemy, our army used all its might to fight. Four battles, one battle, five battles, and even seven battles, we still failed to defeat Xing Tian..."
Four against one refers to the first fight between the Four Strong Eight Hammers and Xing Tian. The Four Strong Eight Hammers were defeated miserably. If Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong hadn't provided timely support, someone would have died on the spot.
Although no one died in this battle, Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong were seriously injured and could no longer endure a fierce battle, so Yue Fei transferred Qin Qiong to the rear to guard Xinye.
In the five-to-one battle, in addition to the Four Fierce Eight Hammers, even Yue Fei himself took action, but it was still useless, and he was no match for the five people.
After seven battles and one battle, the four fierce and eight hammers came first to consume Xing Tian's energy. Then Yue Fei, Yang Zaixing, and Wenpin attacked, hoping to take advantage of the situation to defeat Xing Tian, but Xing Tian was not without helpers, so in the end
He failed in high school, and General Wenpin even quit due to serious injuries.
At this point, a trace of hatred flashed in Yue Fei's eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said: "It is precisely because of Xing Tian that our army paid a very heavy price. Unless this man dies, Jingzhou will never have peace."
After hearing Yue Fei's words, all the reinforcements took a deep breath.
The surrendered generals did not know how powerful Yue Fei, Pei Yuanqing and others were, so they were not deeply impressed by what Yue Fei said, but Jiang Song, Yuwen Chengdu, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong and other veteran generals knew it.
Yue Fei, Yue Yun, Pei Yuanqing, Yang Zaixing and others are not weak in strength. So many masters can't defeat Xingtian even if they join forces? This kind of fighting power is simply shocking.
Even Jiang Song, the strongest among the generals, couldn't withstand the siege of so many masters, but Xing Tian resisted, which shows that Xing Tian's strength is still superior to Jiang Song, and the Qin army can defeat him in a duel.
I'm afraid the only one who has such a good reputation is Li Cunxiao.
"The small country of Shu actually has such a master." Han Xin couldn't help but admire.
Yue Fei shook his head and said: "Xingtian, like Hou Yi, was a great leader of the Han Dynasty during the late emperor's time, not a local fierce general in Yizhou."
Han Xin's face condensed, "The late emperor? This is a person he doesn't want to mention. No one has mentioned it to him for a long time, but he didn't expect that he would want to mention him here today."
There was a time when Han Xin was a passionate young man who wanted to help the Han Dynasty. He worked hard for the Han Dynasty and Xianbei on the front line, but he was betrayed by the monarch Liu Hong. He had obviously won the battle and made great achievements, but this foolish emperor wanted to use his life to please Xianbei.
As soon as this incident came out, Han Xin no longer had any loyalty to the Han Dynasty, and he hated Liu Hong even more.
Today, Liu Hong has long since died, the Han Dynasty has been divided into many countries, and Xianbei has been destroyed by Yuan, Meng and Manchu, but Han Xin is still alive and well.
"Liu Hong, the score between you and me is not settled. Since I can't take revenge on you, I'll settle the score on your son." Han Xinxin sneered.
At this moment, Han Xinxin was even more grateful to Li Jing. If he hadn't asked him to lead his troops south to support Jingzhou, I'm afraid he would never have a chance to take revenge again in his life.
