The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire - Chapter 260

[Chapter 257: The first battle of 3 battles and 3 battles]

Sacrificing logistics for the pursuit of speed and efficiency will inevitably lead to inevitable flaws.

But now, while achieving the goal, Chu State’s military rations are inevitably in short supply, although Xiang Yan ordered the entire army’s military rations to be assembled and implemented a strict rationing system.

However, in the end, the quartermaster did some statistics and reported him a very disappointing figure. The entire army could only last for ten more days even if the food was thrifty.

Therefore, Xiang Yan had no choice but to siege the city as soon as possible to reduce the loss of military rations through the constant casualties of soldiers in the siege battle.

Moreover, they can also take advantage of this turbulent offensive to take down the Nanliang City as soon as possible, opening a hole for the way forward for the Chu State.

The two armies come and go, and for this small city, a life-and-death confrontation is launched. Here, only the victor can survive to the end.

…

In the central battlefield, Qin State and the Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms, with Yuguo as the center, launched a tragic confrontation. The degree of tragic war was far greater than that of the other two battlefields.

This may sound a little strange, because you must know that although the two armies in the middle are the largest in size, the two armies add up to 800,000 people, a number that is enough to make anyone feel terrified and suffocated.

However, in the southern battlefield, the Chu State and the Qin army each have 300,000 people, and they add up to 60,000. Although there is a gap compared to 80,000, under such a huge number, the gap is not too obvious. .

Then why do you say that the battlefield in the middle is far more intense than the other two parties!

Speaking of which, there are several reasons for this. The first point is that this time the Qin State used the central part as the breakthrough point.

Different from the defensive strategy of the other two fronts, the central part uses the assault and onslaught to break through the enemy’s defense line with the greatest strength, so as to achieve the effect of breaking the surface.

Therefore, the 450,000 Qin army in the central part launched a turbulent offensive at the beginning of the war, and did not shrink back and defended the ground.

The same is true for the Three-Power Allied Forces on the opposite side.

After all, there are three countries, and the 350,000 army consumes food and grass. Even if there is a nearby South Korean material support, there is still a shortage of materials. After all, South Korea has suffered from this destruction, and its people have been withered, and the country is desolate.

Moreover, South Korea has a small population and a small territory. The food that can be grown is barely enough for their own consumption, but there is no other surplus.

After the consumption of this war, although the population has dropped sharply and there is a surplus of food, it cannot withstand the consumption of 350,000 young and middle-aged people, which is like a mountain of consumption every day.

Although Zhao and Wei also had some support, it was always the support of these two countries that allowed the 350,000 army to barely support the front line.

However, up to now, due to the war, the strength of Zhao and Wei has been greatly reduced, and the consumption of food and grass is even more serious. Now their monarchs are surrounded, and the energy resources of the whole country have long been involved in the northern battlefield. There is no spare capacity to support the Central Coalition.

Therefore, there is not much food and grass left for the coalition forces in the central region. It is estimated that these food and grass can only support him for two months after living frugally.

In order to solve this situation, Zhong Yu had to take the initiative to attack, seek fighter opportunities, or make a breakthrough and plunder food and grass materials from the Qin state to make up for the loss.

Or, through the war, the number of soldiers will be reduced, so that there are fewer people, and less food needs to be consumed every day, and more time can be supported.

Moreover, after confronting the Qin army for so long in the middle, whether it was himself or the Qin country, both sides could not support it, and the patience was almost exhausted. After all, it has been confronted for more than two years. For such a long time, compared with Zhao Guo The battle of Changping was not lost in the slightest.

So at the beginning of the war, the two sides were on the plain, and they set up their battles dignifiedly and began a decisive battle.

The reason why the ancient armies paid attention to the art of war and the tricks was that they had to do it because of their lack of strength.

However, the victory achieved through conspiracy and trickery is hard to admire from the bottom of your heart.

People still admire those strong people from the bottom of their hearts.

So throughout history, how many of the people who were able to build dynasties that dominated the world did so through conspiracy and trickery!

Qin State destroyed the six kingdoms, and every time they sent hundreds of thousands of troops to crush them in an upright manner.

After the battle between Chu and Han, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu also fought several battles with a scale of more than hundreds of thousands. Through the mobilization of these troops and the courage of the soldiers, those princes of the world would willingly gather under Liu Bang’s command to help He fights Xiang Yu together.

In addition to being oppressed because of Xiang Yu’s strength and his ambition to annex the world, is it not because of Liu Bangla’s huge army?

It is precisely because he admires his strength that he recognizes him as the boss and regards him as the emperor.

Today’s six countries in Shandong,

Why would the members of the Hezong Alliance willingly take Yuguo as their leader?

Among them, apart from not daring to be a standout and facing the huge pressure of Qin alone, isn’t it because of the 300,000 army before Yugu, who overwhelmed Yan and crippled Yan in one fell swoop?

It is precisely because of this strength that the kingdoms consider themselves inferior, and they take the imperial kingdom as their co-ordinator.

In these three months, the two sides fought a total of three large-scale decisive battles, three battles and three decisive battles. I don’t know how many bones were left on this land.

In the first battle, as a battle for the two sides to test, the two sides did not send many troops, each with 100,000 troops.

But although there were not many people, the brutality of the fighting was extremely terrifying.

On the battlefield, the sky is full of blood clouds, the storm is surging, the wind and sand are everywhere, and the sound of screaming is endless.

For the sake of their beliefs, their reasons, their perseverance, and the most basic and most important thing to survive, the soldiers on both sides had to do everything they could, bet their lives, and kill all the enemies in front of them so that they could live. Come down and live to be the last victor.

Since it was the first battle, both soldiers and generals had been instructed before the battle that in this battle, they could not retreat, but only advance.

As long as there is no order, anyone who dares to retreat, even if he retreats from the battlefield, will be beheaded, and their parents and relatives will be implicated.

Under this strict military order, and the coveted supervising team at the rear, all the soldiers had to bite the bullet. Grab the swords in his hands and regard them as his life-saving charms.

After all, at this time, all they can trust is the weapons in their hands.
