Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1222 You are destined to lose before the war begins
Chapter 1220: Doomed to defeat before the war begins
"Let Qin Qiong be the chief general, Yu Chigong and Xiong Kuohai be the deputy generals, and lead an army of [-] to garrison Yique Pass."

There are still [-] troops in Luoyang City, but moving [-] troops is already the limit. After all, [-] troops are not enough to defend Luoyang, but it can guarantee that there will be no chaos in Luoyang, and if Luoyang, the capital of the empire, does not even have [-] troops , then there may be some troubles.

After another [-] troops were transferred from Luoyang, Sizhou's troops could no longer be adjusted, but the problem of Guangchengguan had not been resolved, but Jia Xu obviously had a plan in mind.

"It was ordered that Zhang Liao, the prefect of Nanxiang, lead [-] troops to garrison Guangcheng Pass, and order Nanyang prefect Qin Zheng to send general Gao Shun to lead [-] troops to garrison Guangcheng. Zhang Liao will be the chief general, and Gao Shun will be the deputy general."

In the Battle of Jingbei, Gao Shun was severely injured by Liu Xiu. Now that more than a year has passed, his injuries have naturally healed, so he can return to the battlefield.

After Jingbei was divided by Qin Hao, there were six counties in total, and the Qin army only occupied four and a half counties, namely: Nanyang, Nanxiang, Zhangling, Xiangyang, and a small half of Nanjun.

As for the other two counties, most of South County belonged to Liu Xiu, and Jiangxia County belonged to Huang Zu.

The Qin army has 12 troops in the five counties of Jingbei, of which there are [-] troops in Xiangyang, and [-] in each of the other three counties. Transfer to Guangchengguan.

With the combination of Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, coupled with the [-]-strong army defending, the defense of Guangchengguan can be said to be impeccable.

Yuan Shu probably would never have imagined that he had just prepared to send troops on his front foot, and wanted to catch the Qin army by surprise, but Jia Xu was fully prepared on his back foot.

Xu Huang, Qin Yi, and Qin Huaiyu led [-] troops to guard Hulao Pass;

Qin Qiong, Yu Chigong, Xiong Kuohai, and Guan Sheng led an army of [-] to guard Yique Pass;
Zhang Liao and Gao Shun led [-] troops to guard Guangcheng Pass.

Tan Daoji and Qin Jian led [-] troops to guard Luoyang;
Jia Xu's deployment of troops can be said to be the use of limited troops in the most useful positions, making Sizhou's defense almost perfect.

Now that the Qin army has the right time, place, and people, even if Yuan Shu's 25 troops are dispatched, it may not be useful. Therefore, Zhao Kuangyin's surprise attack on Guangcheng Pass this time may be doomed to return in vain.

Yuan Shu was doomed to lose this battle before it started.

"Lord Jia, when the lord went north, he ordered Yue Fei to send troops to prevent Liu Xiu from dominating Jingnan.

After Yue Fei got the order, he decisively led the army to attack Nanjun, and also achieved great results. Now he has arrived at the city of Jiangling, and forced Liu Xiu in Jingnan to give up the formation in Jingnan, and personally led the army back to rescue Jiangling. . "

Speaking of this, Xun Yu couldn't help but a trace of regret flashed in his eyes, and then continued: "Now our army and Yuan Shu are about to start a war, in order to avoid falling into the situation of fighting on two fronts. Should Yue Fei be ordered to retreat to ensure that our army has Sufficient troops to deal with the next Yuan Shu army."

Although Liu Xiu had led the army back now, the strength he brought back was not much, and what really played a role in boosting morale, so if Yue Fei was allowed to continue his conquest, it was very likely that Yue Fei would defeat Liu Xiu.

At that time, the Qin army will occupy the entire Jingbei area except Jiangxia County, and the territory will also advance to the north bank of the Yangtze River to sit on the Yangtze River defense line.

It's a pity that Yuan Shu's 25 army is about to attack, and Jia Xu will never let the Qin army risk fighting on two fronts, so no matter how rich the results of the battle in Nanjun are, Yue Fei must return to the army immediately for the sake of the overall situation.

"Wen Ruo is right. It is too risky to fight on two fronts, so let Yue Fei retreat first. After Yuan Shu is defeated, it will not be too late to continue to conquer Nanjun." Jia Xu said seriously.

Yue Fei, who was leading the army in Jiangling, was so angry that he wanted to scold his mother after receiving Jia Xu's order. Of course, he didn't want to scold Jia Xu, but Yuan Shu.

Since Yue Fei became the prefect of Xiangyang, he has always wanted to open the frontier to the Lord, but the center of the Qin army is in the north, and there is not much room for him to display in the south, except for defense or defense.

Now it's hard to get the order from the lord to attack, and Yue Fei has almost given Nanjun to the Raiders, and he is short of capturing Jiangling as a strong one, and Nanjun is completely owned by the Qin army.

As long as Yue Fei was given the last ten days, he would be sure to capture Jiangling, but at this time Yuan Shu wanted to send troops to attack the Qin army's rear, which made Yue Fei's painstaking efforts completely in vain.

It was only a little bit short of success, a little bit!
Although Yue Fei was extremely unwilling, he also understood the priority of the matter. After all, as the hub connecting the two prefectures, Sizhou was more important than the five southern counties, so Yue Fei had to give up the southern county and return to the army no matter how reluctant he was.

Seeing that Yue Fei took the initiative to withdraw his army, Liu Xiu thought it was a trick to lure snakes out of the hole. After all, Yue Fei had played like this before, and when Liu Xiu realized it, Yue Fei's army had already retreated to Xiangyang City.

"Lord Jia, there must be some reason for Yuan Shu's sudden dispatch of troops this time."

Speaking of this, Xun Yu clasped his fists and said solemnly: "I think we should send envoys to condemn and question Yuan Shu, and at the same time to inquire about the reasons for Yuan Shu's transformation. If we can prescribe the right medicine, we may be able to eliminate this battle. among."

For today's Qin army, this battle is naturally not the best. After all, with the main force going north to Hetao, the strength of the Sizhou and Jingzhou Qin troops is indeed weaker than Yuan Shu's army, but it is always risky to fight. Why take a risk if you don't take a risk?

After listening to Xun Yu's words, Jia Xu decided to send an envoy to lobby Yuan Shu, and it would be best if he could succeed, otherwise he would go to war with Yuan Shu.

As for the candidate for the envoy, Jia Xu finally chose to send Di Renjie.

Through this period of getting along, Jia Xu found that Di Renjie was not only eloquent, but also thoughtful, and his observation ability was even more nuanced. If he was sent as an envoy, he would definitely find something unusual.

After Di Renjie took the order, he immediately rushed to Yuzhou non-stop, and when he arrived, Zhao Kuangyin's army had already set off, so Di Renjie immediately showed his identity and asked to meet Yuan Shu without even taking a break.

Yuan Shu didn't even dare to meet the Qin army's envoys, but when Di Renjie saw Yuan Shu, he immediately persuaded Yuan Shu from various aspects, such as: the comparison of strength between the two sides, the probability of the Qin and Jin armies winning the battle of Hetao is even higher so big.

Di Renjie's negotiating skills are still very good, but Yuan Shu's heart to win Sizhou is very firm. Di Renjie tried his best to persuade Yuan Shu to retreat, but when he was about to leave Yuzhou, he made a shocking discovery.

Ten days later, Di Renjie returned to Luoyang and reported to Jia Xu: "My lord, I am humble and incompetent. I did not persuade Yuan Shu to withdraw his troops, but..."
