Chapter 2078 Qin Qing You Beiping Battle (2)

Chapter 2076: Battle of Qin and Qing You Beiping (2)

After Wanyan Honglie hesitated for a moment, he still stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the one hundred thousand troops under Xue Rengui and Wei Qing should be reorganized from the troops descended from the Northern Han Dynasty."

"Surrender and reorganization?"

Nurhachi's pupils shrank slightly, and then he smiled wryly: "How did Qin Hao get those soldiers to return to their hearts in such a short period of time? Isn't he afraid of the soldiers mutiny?"

"The leader of the Fifth Route Army of the Qin Army is Wei Qing, presumably Wei Qing is a soldier from the Northern Han Dynasty that Wei Qing helped Qin Hao subdue.

As for whether it will mutiny?If the battle situation is unfavorable, these surrenders will naturally be the most unstable factor for the Qin army, but now that the Qin army is always at a disadvantage on the frontal battlefield, there is naturally no risk of mutiny with the surrender army in a smooth battle. "

Hearing Wanyan Honglie's words, Nurhachi fell silent immediately.

Who had sworn to him before that Wei Qing was Liu Che's brother-in-law, loyal to Liu Che, and would not surrender to his enemy Qin Hao even if he died?

Now Nurhachi just wants to chop off the man's tongue and feed it to the dogs.

If he had known that Wei Qing would surrender, and had helped the Qin army to subdue 35 surrendered troops in advance, so that the total strength of the Qin army could reach [-], Nurhachi would definitely not have died in Youbeiping and refused to retreat.

It's all right now, Lu Longsai is lost, his escape route is cut off, and he can't escape even if he wants to.

Suddenly, Nurhachi realized that he seemed to have fallen into Qin Hao's scheme from the very beginning.

Regarding the news of Wei Qing's surrender, Qin Hao has been in a state of blockade. Except for some high-level Qin army, the outside world does not know that Wei Qing has surrendered.

The reason why Qin Hao blocked the news was to catch Man Qing by surprise, but it turned out that this tactic was used correctly. The sudden participation of Wei Qing and the [-] surrendered troops did catch Nurhachi by surprise, and changed the situation of the Qing army, which had already taken a turn for the worse. more difficult.

"Is the gap in national power between Qing and Qin really that big?" Nurhachi said with a wry smile. Only at this moment did he truly realize the gap in national power with Qin.

When the Qin State was fighting everywhere, even though it had dispatched 50 million troops, it could still supply 35 troops to fight the Manchus.

Although the whole Qing Dynasty had 55 troops, even if the treasury was emptied, it could only supply 30 troops to fight against the Qin army.

This is the gap between national power!
As a semi-agricultural and semi-nomadic country, the Manchu Qing would naturally not let go of the big killers such as new grains, but even with the new grains, the domestic grain reserves were still not up to the mark even though the grain production had increased greatly. To the point where it can be squandered at will.

Raising the army, fighting at home, and fighting abroad, the consumption of food and grass is different among the three.

Cao Cao, Duke Wei of Yanzhou, expanded his army crazily in order to protect himself. A small Yanzhou had an army of 30, but the actual number of troops dispatched in each campaign never exceeded 15.

Why?No food.

Another example is the princes of the three prefectures of Ji, You and Qing, who have a total force of nearly 70 million, but can only dispatch 50 troops to fight the Qin army.

Why didn't they just send 70 troops to fight?It's just because they can support 70 million troops, but they can't provide food and grass for 70 million troops to fight.

This is still a local battle, and there is no need to consider logistics, otherwise the Hebei princes will be able to dispatch fewer troops.

As for Yuanmeng's 60-strong army, it was able to dispatch 40-strong army to attack Hetao. This was not because Yuanmeng's national power was stronger than that of the Qing Dynasty, but because Yuanmeng not only mobilized the whole country's strength, but also attacked Qin's army. The granary Hetao can only be supplied by war support.

Although the current Manchu Qing also has a great increase in food production, but due to the years of war, the family has consumed nearly half of it before it has accumulated a solid foundation. In addition, it only defeated its army but not destroyed its country. The weaker the fight.

This is the main reason why the Manchu Qing could only dispatch 30 troops to fight the Qin army.

The situation of the Qin army is completely different from that of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties. The four battles of Youzhou, Hetao, Sizhou, and Jingbei, one for external attack and three for internal defense, used a full force of 70 million troops, but the Qin army But there is no food pressure at all.

This is the gap in national strength!
Nurhachi made up his mind in his heart that if he could return to Shengjing smoothly this time, he would devote himself to governing the country and wait until the national strength of the Manchu Qing Dynasty became stronger before considering going south.

What Nurhachi didn't know was that the food and grass pressure of the Qin army was actually much greater than that of the Manchus, and it was just resolved by Qin Hao ingeniously.

Youzhou is a newly acquired land, there is not much grain, and transportation is inconvenient, so Qin Hao built a new Tianjin Port to transport grain from Hebei and Qinghai by sea.

Hetao, Sizhou, and Jingbei are all large grain-producing states, and they are all fighting locally. In addition, the battle in Hetao has ended, and Sizhou has turned from defense to offense. Only Jingbei is still anxious State, so the pressure on food and grass will naturally not be too great.

If the total food and grass consumption of the Qin army is compared to ten, the Youzhou army alone consumes [-]% of the total consumption, while the total consumption of the other three places is only [-]%.

The next three days were extremely torturous for Nurhachi. He waited for the battle report every day, hoping to have good news, but all the news was bad without exception.

"Report... Your Majesty, General Fu Jian was blocked by Qin General Zhang Han on Jieshi Road on his way to Lulong.

Relying on the favorable location, Zhang Han built a fortified stronghold within three days. General Fu Jian has ordered a fierce attack, but it may be difficult to defeat the enemy in the short term. "

"What? Jieshi Road? General Qin's eyes are really vicious."

Nurhachi couldn't help showing a dignified look, Jieshi said that he had walked through it himself, and knew where it was a dangerous place, easy to defend but difficult to attack.

When occupying the Liao Kingdom, Yinzhen once persuaded Nurhachi to build a new pass on Jieshi Road and name it Shanhaiguan. With Lulong and Shanhai Pass in hand, the Qing Dynasty's defense in Youzhou can be considered complete and will enter Can attack and retreat.

At that time, Nurhachi thought that after seizing Youzhou, the role of Lulongsai would be greatly reduced. It would be superfluous and a waste of money and food to build a new Shanhaiguan, so he did not agree.

But now it seems that Yinzhen's proposal is correct. If Nurhachi agrees to build Shanhaiguan, there will be no possibility of cutting off the grain road now.

It's too late to regret!
"Fu Jian was blocked by Zhang Han and couldn't reach Lulong on time, so he couldn't cooperate with Huang Taiji's two-sided attack. Now it may be difficult to regain Lulongsai."

As soon as he thought of this, Nurhachi's face instantly became extremely ugly, but the worse news was yet to come.

"Report... Your Majesty, Eldest Brother has arrived at Lulongsai, and without stopping, he immediately started to attack the city, but General Qin has changed the defense of Lulongsai, Eldest Brother stormed for a day, causing more than [-] casualties People, still failed to shake Lulong Sai."
