Chapter 2667: Cao Wei Macedonian defense line, Li Cunxiao captured Liu Yan alive

Let alone Li Cunxiao, who is number one in the world, even an ordinary god of war is a strategic weapon for all major forces in the world.

Li Cunxiao, Yang Jian, Jiang Song, Li Yuanba, Xing Tian, ​​Chi You, Yuan Jiuling, Niu Mowang and other top fighters are almost incomprehensible existences, and they must be rivaled by opponents of the same level.

Therefore, the princes and kings of the world also attach great importance to this.

Daqin had always announced that Li Cunxiao would be sent to the Qingnan battlefield, and Cao Wei didn't have much doubt about it.

After all, Niu Mowang, Zhu Ming's number one fighter, is also recognized as the number one fighter in the Central Plains. Even if his strength is not as good as Li Cunxiao's, he is still at the same level as Jiang Song and Li Yuanba, and he is fully qualified to challenge the world's number one Li Cunxiao.

It is also completely reasonable for Daqin to send Li Cunxiao to the Qingnan battlefield.

But what Cao Wei didn't expect was that the news that Li Cunxiao was sent to the Qingnan battlefield was actually fake news deliberately released by Daqin. In fact, Li Cunxiao had already come to Hulao Pass.

Cao Wei was already the weakest among the Three Kingdoms in the Central Plains. To deal with Wei, the weakest country, Daqin not only dispatched the general Bai Qi and the poisonous Jia Xu, but also dispatched Li Cunxiao?
This is a bit too much. After all, Cao Wei is just a mere Cao Wei. How can He De deserve it to be taken so seriously by Daqin?

Isn't this a bull's knife for killing chickens?
Cao Cao and others, how can they not understand that Daqin took so much trouble to deal with Cao Wei, a chicken, with absolute power, to completely destroy Cao Wei in the shortest time, and not give Cao Wei any chance to fight back.

Once Cao Wei is destroyed, it is only a matter of time before the Song and Ming Dynasties are destroyed.

Cao Cao knew Ying Hao's sinister intentions, but he couldn't do anything about it.

In order to prevent the intervention of the Ming and Song Dynasties, Daqin first attacked the Ming with three land and water armies, confining the Ming army to Qingnan and Xuzhou, and then sent [-] cavalry into Runan, so that the Song army did not dare to go north to assist Cao Wei .

The four Qin armies of Su Dingfang, Zhuge Liang, Zhou Gongjin, and Xue Rengui restrained all the energies of the Ming and Song Dynasties, and also made Cao Wei completely isolated and helpless.

Cao Wei can only rely on himself to fight against the four-way Qin army, but the strength gap between the two sides is too great.

The invincible Li Cunxiao alone has already made Cao Wei helpless, let alone Ying Hao and Bai Qi.

"Report... my lord, the [-] Great Qin Vanguard Army led by Li Cunxiao did not stop after arriving in Xingyang City, and continued to march towards Longcheng."

"Li Cunxiao came in person, how should our army resist?" Cao Cao asked Fan Li and Cheng Yu.

After Fan Li and Cheng Yu looked at each other, they were speechless. After all, Cao Wei had no generals who could match Li Cunxiao, and even the strongest Yin Zhou might not be his opponent.

Seeing that Fan Li and Cheng Yu were silent, Cao Cao also knew that Cao Wei had no way to deal with Li Cunxiao, so he could only hold on as long as he could.

After a long time, Fan Li stood up with a serious face, and said: "My lord, the purpose of the Great Qin is already obvious. The reason why the three armies were first launched to attack the Ming Dynasty was just to drag the Wei and Song countries into the water, and force the Wei, Song and Ming kingdoms to attack the Ming Dynasty." That's all.

Now among the eight Qin armies, four are attacking our Great Wei, and there are also generals such as Bai Qi and Li Cunxiao, and even Ying Hao has personally led the army. If Song and Ming do not support it, we will only rely on my Great Wei family With so much power, it is absolutely impossible to block the four Qin armies at the same time. "

"But Zhu Ming was trapped by the Qin army from three routes, and Zhao Song was dragged to Runan by [-] Qin cavalry. They will not be able to support our country in a short time."

Cao Cao continued to say distressedly that he did not expect that Daqin would strike so hard, and hit Wei Guo's seven inches in the first shot, leaving Cao Wei in a situation of fighting alone.

"My lord, the Song and Ming Dynasties really cannot allocate troops to support our country in the short term, but it is still possible to allocate some generals to support our country."

Hearing Fan Li's words, Cao Cao's eyes lit up immediately.

Yes, the Song and Ming dynasties can't send troops to support, can't they send generals?One counts as one, and it can always share some of Cao Wei's pressure.

Once Cao Wei is really defeated by Da Qin, it will be a bad news for both Song and Ming.

"What the military adviser said is true, but are there other ways to resist the Qin army?"

Hearing Cao Cao's words, Fan Li hesitated for a while, and then said: "If the Great Qin is really allowed to occupy the Central Plains, it will not only be damaged by the three kingdoms of Wei, Song and Ming, but also the interests of the various sects of the Dao of Demons.

Kui Gang, the former leader of the Shura Sect, was invited to come to Qiao County to sit in town, which is enough to show that the Demon Sect does not like Daqin.

Therefore, my Great Wei can join forces with the Demon Sect and use the masters of the Demon Sect to deal with Da Qin.

It doesn't matter if someone in the Demon Sect can defeat Li Cunxiao, as long as he can barely block him, the pressure on the western front will be much less. "

Naturally, Cao Cao didn't care about the criticism and infamy he suffered when he teamed up with the Momen. After all, his reputation was not good because of the establishment of Mojin Xiaowei, robbing tombs to get money and supporting the army, so how could he care about it? How many infamy?

Besides, the country is about to perish, so what do you care about your reputation?
Cao Cao had long wanted to unite with the Demon Sect, and had already sent someone to invite them, but the effect was not obvious. Neither Kui Gang from the Asura Sect nor Yuan Jiuling from the Heavenly Demon Sect paid any attention to Cao Wei.

"Gu Wang has contacted the Demon Sect long ago, but the masters of the Demon Sect are all afraid of the Great Qin Ruhu, and dare not go down the mountain to make an enemy of the Great Qin." Cao Cao sighed.

"Song Guoshi Shen Gongbao has friends all over the world, and he is close friends with many masters of the Demon Sect. If he goes out to invite him, it may have a miraculous effect." Fan Li said.

Cao Cao had no other better way, so he immediately sent a message to Zhao Kuangyin, hoping to send Shen Gongbao to invite Momen to come out of the mountain.

As Ying Hao expected, Li Cunxiao and Jia Xu immediately attracted Cao Cao's full attention as soon as they went out. He didn't even realize that the main general of the Qin army had changed.

Of course, this is also related to Cao Cao's three lines of defense on the western front.

The 21 counties in Henan County are not all owned by Daqin. The eight counties in the east, including Kaifeng, Yangwu, Zhongmou, and Juan, are actually under the rule of Cao Wei.

After the warlords challenged Dong, Ying Hao took advantage of the situation to occupy the entire territory of Yin 21 County in Henan, renamed it Henan County, and still established the government in Luoyang.

At that time, there were dozens of big and small forces in the Central Plains, including Cao Cao, Zhu Yuanzhang, Li Zicheng, Tao Qian, and Yuan Shu, and they were constantly fighting with each other.

The land of ten counties to the east of Hulao Pass has close contact with the Central Plains, so it was also involved in the melee in the Central Plains, and it was always affected by the war every now and then.

The land of ten counties to the east of Hulao Pass is not guarded by such a powerful pass as Hulao Pass, nor is it all fortified cities like Xingyang, and the terrain of Yimapingchuan is not easy to defend.

Daqin needs to continuously invest in troops in order to ensure the effective rule of these ten counties, and this undoubtedly restrains a lot of Daqin's energy.

It coincided with Li Zicheng's resurgence at that time, which set off a wave of peasant uprisings in the Central Plains, and Daqin had not had time to carry out reforms, so a large number of poor people in the eastern counties of Henan County also responded to Li Zicheng's uprising.

At that time, Daqin was competing with Temujin for the Hetao, and was unable to send troops to suppress the rebel army, so he strategically gave up the rebellious eight counties and concentrated his forces to suppress the rebellion in Xingyang and Jing counties, so as to ensure the rebellion of the two counties. The county serves as the barrier of Hulao Pass, so it temporarily loses its rule over the eight counties in the east.

After Daqin won the first battle of Hetao, the peasant uprising army in the eight counties in eastern Henan had been suppressed by Qiao Mao, the prefect of Dongjun at that time, and Qiao Mao was later defeated by Cao Cao and annexed. The eight counties including Kaifeng in the east also fell into the hands of Cao Cao.

At that time, Jia Xu had already welcomed the emperor back, and Ying Hao coerced the emperor to command the princes, but he lacked influential supporters among the princes. In addition, the eight counties in the east had no danger to defend, which was like a chicken rib to the Great Qin, so he acquiesced It ended Cao Cao's rule over the eight counties in the east.

Now that the Great Qin was attacking Wei in the east, the eight counties in the east of Henan County were the first to bear the brunt, and Cao Cao also built these eight counties into the western barrier of Chenliu County.

Cao Cao built three lines of defense in the eight counties in eastern Henan.

The westernmost cities of Longcheng, Guancheng, Hucheng, and Mixian were the first line of defense, directly facing the Qin army on the front line of Hulao Pass and Xingyang.

Among these four cities, only Mi County belongs to the eight counties in Henan. The other three cities are all new cities built by Cao Cao himself in order to guard against the Great Qin Dynasty after the emergence of cement technology.

After the first line of defense, there is the second spinning line consisting of the six cities of Juanxian, Yuanyong, Putian, Peilin, Suohou, and Xinzheng.

After the second line of defense, there is the third line of defense consisting of the six cities of Yuanwu, Yangwu, Guandu, Zhongmou, Kaifeng, and Yuanling.

Cao Wei used these eighteen cities to form three lines of defense as the western barrier of Chenliu County, and behind them were Suanzao, Fengqiu, Chenliu and other Cao Wei hinterlands.

Cao Cao regarded the three lines of defense to the west of Chenliu as Cao Wei's Macedonian line of defense. He wanted to use this to resist the attack of the Qin army on the western front, and to weaken the strength of Da Qin layer by layer through defensive counterattacks.

Of course, Ying Hao was well aware of this, and instead pretended to conquer Chen Liu personally, allowing Cao Wei to concentrate more troops on the western front, while he personally led an army to surprise Yingchuan.

The core of Longcheng Cao Wei's first line of defense, once Longcheng falls, the role of Guancheng, Hucheng, and Mixian will be greatly reduced, so Li Cunxiao will attack Longcheng first.

Cao Wei's Longcheng defender was Liu Yan, a famous general who was good at guarding.

During the Battle of Guandu in the original history, Cao Cao sent Liu Yan, the prefect of Dongjun at that time, to lead more than [-] soldiers to guard the white horse with Yu Jin. Yan Liang led an army of tens of thousands of cavalry to attack, but it was still difficult to break through the city.

Liu Yan's record in this era is stronger than that of the original history. He once guarded Chenliu City with [-] defenders and blocked Li Zicheng's [-] army for a month.

In the three Central Plains wars, Liu Yan also performed well in the confrontation between Wei and Ming. The most famous one was the battle against the famous general Zhu Wenzheng who was also famous for his good defense.

At that time, Cao Jun had just captured Xiaopei, but had to divide his troops. However, Liu Yan guarded Xiaopei with [-] defenders, and blocked Zhu Wenzheng's [-] army for two months.

It is precisely because Longcheng is so important that Cao Cao let Liu Yan guard it, and also gave him [-] elite soldiers.

Cao Cao's order to Liu Yan was to defend Longcheng for a month. Naturally, this task was not small, so since Liu Yan took over Longcheng, he has been strengthening the defense of Longcheng.

If other Qin generals lead the army to attack, Liu Yan is still confident that he can defend for a month, but when the [-] Qin troops outside the city are neatly lined up and the generals at the head, Liu Yan's heart turns cold instantly.

The Qin general who came to attack Longcheng this time was actually Li Cunxiao, the most powerful general in the world, how could Liu Yan still have confidence in his heart?

After Li Cunxiao saw the defensive layout of Longcheng, he knew that the defenders of the city would be difficult to deal with. If he didn't take action himself and only relied on the strength of his soldiers, even if he could break the city, he would have to pay a high price, so while doing his best to attack While preparing for the city, he sent people to persuade Liu Yan to surrender.

Liu Yan naturally refused Li Cunxiao's persuasion to surrender. After all, Cao Cao discovered and enabled him, so how could he surrender without a fight.

Li Cunxiao saw that General Wei refused to surrender, so he launched an attack on Longcheng the next day, and personally participated in the siege battle.

Liu Yan had long been guarding against Li Cunxiao's siege, and reserved fifty catapults and five hundred crossbows for Li Cunxiao in advance, but when Li Cunxiao came up together, he discovered that these arrangements were useless to Li Cunxiao.

Li Cunxiao's speed was so fast that ordinary soldiers couldn't catch him at all. Li Cunxiao easily boarded Longcheng, and then killed the guard Liu Yan alone.

Liu Yan quickly mobilized catapults and strong crossbows, and set fire to Li Cunxiao on the only way to pass. Although it had a certain blocking effect, it was only a little bit.

In this way, Li Cunxiao killed more than a thousand Wei soldiers by himself, rushed to Liu Yanjin, strangled him like a chicken, and Liu Yan, who had only 88 force points, had no power to fight back.

As the chief general, Liu Yan was captured, the morale of the Wei army plummeted, and the fighting spirit was completely lost. Under the threat of Li Cunxiao, they knelt down and surrendered one after another, and Longcheng was broken.

Cao Cao had high hopes for Liu Yan, hoping that Liu Yan's [-] defenders could live in the world of Longcheng for a month, but Li Cunxiao defeated them in just two days.

Cao Cao, Fan Li and other high-ranking Cao Wei officials were all shocked when they learned about it.
