Chapter 2060: The troops are divided into seven groups (Part 1)
"The terrain of Jieshi Road is difficult, and the Qing army cannot take full advantage of its strength. If a strong camp is set up here, as long as the troops and supplies are sufficient, let alone holding back the Qing army coming from western Liaoning, it will not be possible to hold it for more than a month.
question"
Hearing Xuanyuan's words, Qin Hao's eyes suddenly lit up and he said with great joy: "So, using the terrain of Jieshi Road to block the Manchu reinforcements coming from western Liaoning, after occupying Lulong, we only have to face Youbeiping.
With the enemy troops, the Manchu and Qing Dynasties would naturally not form a pincer attack on Lulong.
With the defensive power of Lulongsai, as long as it is not attacked from the front and rear, it will definitely be able to hold on, thereby buying time for our army to completely annihilate the Qin army in Youbeiping."
"That's right."
Gongsun Xuanyuan nodded and said, this was a clever plan that he had thought about for a long time, but in just a few words, Qin Hao had guessed the whole picture.
It was not a fluke that King Qin was able to create such a foundation in such a short period of time. Xuanyuan thought to himself.
After Gongsun Xuanyuan's suggestion, Qin Hao was improving it, and the plan for a surprise attack on Lulongsai was decided, but the choice of the general who would lead the army still needed to be considered.
"The number of troops deployed for the surprise attack on Lulongsai cannot exceed 20,000 at most, otherwise it will be difficult to conceal the movement of the march. As for the candidates to lead the army?"
After Qin Hao thought for a while, he looked at Gongsun Xuanyuan and asked: "Brother Xuanyuan, I wonder if you would like to help me?"
Gongsun Xuanyuan was immediately overjoyed. In his opinion, the current troubles were all caused by him. Even if Qin Hao refused to let him go, he would take the initiative to ask for help. However, he did not expect that Qin Hao would let him serve as the commander of the surprise attack on Lulong. This was completely beyond him.
unexpected.
Xuanyuan was just about to agree, but then he thought about it, he did not join the Qin army, and commanding the generals of the Qin army as an outsider, it would be difficult to convince these arrogant generals.
alright.
Thinking of this, Gongsun Xuanyuan immediately clasped his fists and said: "Xuanyuan originally helped King Qin, but the position of general should be removed. Xuanyuan is afraid that he cannot take on such a big responsibility, so he asked King Qin to choose someone else."
"How could it be? No one here knows the terrain of Youzhou better than you, Brother Xuanyuan, and no one knows the Manchu Qing Dynasty better than you. Who else could I take the position of general over you? Oh, I understand."
As he spoke, Qin Hao showed a look of surprise and said, "Are you worried that the generals in the army will be dissatisfied with you and not listen to you?
Brother Xuanyuan, you don't have to worry about this. Our Qin army has always enforced orders and prohibitions. You are the general appointed by this king and represent this king. No one will dare to violate your orders.
If you are still worried."
Qin Hao took the Tai'a sword from his waist and handed it to Gongsun Xuanyuan, saying: "Tai'a is my king's sword. Seeing this sword is like seeing the king. The one who holds this sword has the right to kill first and then show off. If anyone dares not to listen to you,
As ordered, you will behead him on my behalf."
"this……"
Gongsun Xuanyuan was completely stunned. He did not expect Qin Hao to trust him so much. In addition to appointing him as the general, he was also prepared to entrust the Tai'a Sword to him.
This is the fourth Tai'a sword among the top ten famous swords!
Although Gongsun Xuanyuan already had the No. 1 Xuanyuan Sword, he was still moved by Qin Hao's unreserved trust, which made him feel moved but also a little hesitant.
Although he agreed to marry Qin Hao, it was for the sake of his family. He still had grudges about working for Qin Hao. He thought of simply retreating to the mountains and wandering around in the rivers and lakes in the future, but Qin Hao's heavy trust made it difficult for him to refuse.
Qin Hao's words had already reached this point, leaving Xuanyuan with no choice but to accept the Tai'a sword, clasping his fists and saying solemnly: "Thank you for your highness's trust. Xuanyuan has nothing to repay but to capture Lu Long."
Qin Hao suddenly showed a satisfied smile. This time Xuanyuan did not reject him, which showed that Xuanyuan was not far away from his complete return. He would have one more God of War under his command to command 100 people.
"Gongsun Xuanyuan, I appoint you as the chief general and command 20,000 elite troops. You will immediately rush to Tianjin Guard and land in Liaodong by sea. The Qingzhou Navy will be responsible for transporting you to Liaodong." Qin Hao ordered.
"Promise, Xuanyuan will live up to King Qin's instructions."
After finalizing the candidate for the general, Qin Hao began to choose a partner for Xuanyuan. The mission of surprise attack on Lulongsai was too dangerous. Xuanyuan alone was unable to do it. He had to be paired with a strong partner to ensure the safety of the trip.
"Sun Lingming, Jia Fu, Zhang Han, Qin Yi, you and the other four belong to Xuanyuan's command."
"No." Sun Lingming and other four generals shouted in unison.
As for the 20,000 elites who participated in the surprise attack, Qin Hao originally planned to be selected from the Qin army, but Xuanyuan said that his subordinates knew the terrain of Youzhou better and hoped that his troops could also participate.
Qin Hao thought about it briefly and agreed. After all, what Gongsun Xuanyuan said made sense. As a local soldier, no one in the Gongsun Army knew the local terrain better than them.
Since then, the 20,000-strong army that attacked Lulongsai was formally formed, namely: 15,000 Qin troops and 5,000 Gongsun troops. The 15,000 Qin troops also included 5,000 elite iron guards.
As for the general lineup, in addition to Gongsun Xuanyuan, the god of war who commands 100, there are also 20,000 super generals Sun Lingming and Jia Fu, as well as two good generals Zhang Han and Qin Yi, and two generals Gongsun Yu and Gongsun He.
He also went on an expedition with Gongsun Xuanyuan.
There are so many famous generals among the mere 20,000 troops, which shows that Qin Hao attaches great importance to this battle and is determined to capture Lulong Se.
After the Manchu Qing Dynasty turned from offense to defense, they continued to transport grain and grass to Beiping. I don't know whether it was because they were afraid of being cut off by the Qin navy, or for other reasons. They had already accumulated a considerable amount of grain and grass.
Therefore, even if Gongsun Xuanyuan successfully captured Lulongsai, he would not be able to immediately deprive the Manchus of food in the short term, and would instead put themselves in danger.
During this period, the main force of the Qin army on the front line must attack across the entire front, preventing the Manchu Qing from using enough force to deal with Lu Long and helping Gongsun Xuanyuan behind the enemy to share the pressure.
After thinking about this, Qin Hao decisively ordered: "Bai Qi, Xue Rengui, Su Dingfang, Huo Qubing..."
When he thought of the fourth person, Qin Hao was silent for a moment, then his eyes fell on Wei Qing, and said with a slight smile: "Wei Qing."
"The end will be here."
Bai Qi's four generals stepped forward together, while Wei Qing looked shocked. He never expected that Qin Hao would let himself, Bai Qi and others stand out together at this time.
After a brief moment of shock, Wei Qing quickly reacted, stood up and clasped his fists, saying: "The general will be here."
"Since the Manchu Qing Dynasty camped everywhere in Youbeiping, the troops were too scattered. If our troops were too concentrated, we would not be able to give full play to our strength advantages. Therefore, I decided to divide the troops into five groups and attack across the board after successfully capturing Lulongsai.
The leaders of the Manchu and Qing dynasties must not care about each other."
At this time, Qin Hao looked at the five generals below and said with a smile: "As for the candidates for the chief generals of these five armies, you and other five people will be responsible for them."
