Chapter 342 Hope in Despair
Chapter 341: Hope in Despair
In the decisive battle of the Yellow River, Li Zicheng''s subordinates, Tian Mixiu, Zhang Shiyi, Zhang Shiyi, Fang Guozhen''s younger brother, and Chen Youliang''s younger brother, all died in the battlefield.
The 30,000 Yellow Turban Cavalry after the war was less than 220,000, and even Xiang Yu''s overlord cavalry was less than 3,000, which shows how tragic the battle was.
Later, Xiang Yu massacred 150,000 Han soldiers in public in front of Xiaopingjin and built a capital temple.
Xiang Yu used the most iron-blooded means to force the defenders in the pass to surrender, so as to achieve the intention of defeating the troops without fighting.
However, the methods were too tough and cruel, and Cao Cao caught the loopholes and exploited them, which aroused the defenders in the pass to resist to the death.
However, 150,000 heads were just outside the gates, and they were consuming the beliefs of all the defenders every day, making them afraid of Xiang Yu in their hearts.
As the commander of Han, He Jin never had the courage to face Xiang Yu.
After He Jin appointed Yuan Shao as the main general and asked Cao Cao, Sun Jian and other generals, he fled back to Luoyang with his personal guards.
Liu Hong really wished he could swallow this waste brother-in-law. In this battle, He Jin not only ruined the Han army of 250,000, but also ruined the Han hope of winning.
If possible, Liu Hong would like to scatter He Jin, but He Jin had many gangs in the court, and even the emperor could not do anything about him.
In the end, Liu Hong had no choice but to say that it was not a war crime and punished him with a one-year salary.
He Jin, who ruined 250,000 yuan in a healthy child, had to come to a one-year salary penalty.
Both the government and the people and the people are extremely disappointed in Liu Hong, a foolish monarch... No, it should be despair, because no one has ever had hope for Liu Hong.
People who are loyal to the Han Dynasty no longer expect the Han Dynasty to defeat the Yellow Turbans. What they hope is to stay as long as they can and try to delay the time of the Han Dynasty. one
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Han Dynasty cannot last long, and the dynasty is about to change. The only thing they can do to save the Han Dynasty, the old ministers of the old dynasty.
…
Sour jujube.
When Qin Hao finished reading out the battle situation in Mengjin, the generals of the army were collectively uproar.
The elite Han army was defeated by Xiang Yu''s 30,000 cavalry. He Jin''s arbitrary behavior not only ruined the last hope of the Han Dynasty, but also made all the efforts of these front-line generals vain.
Now even if Qin Hao can defeat Huang Chao, he cannot change the overall situation.
All the generals of the army cursed He Jin, but what if they could scold him again? He Jin is still a general, but how long can the Han Dynasty last?
After scolding, everyone was extremely confused.
What kind of country is you protecting?
Is such a country really worthy of its own protection?
What is the point of fighting to the death?
Everyone''s performance was seen by Qin Hao. If he were usually happy, he would have been shaken. After all, even Liu Bei and Xun Yu, who were loyal to the Han Dynasty, were shaken, which shows that the Han Dynasty was completely unpopular.
But now the situation is different. The defeat of teammate He Jin of Pig has completely changed the strength comparison between the two sides. Even if he can win and weaken the Yellow Turbans, it will not help the overall situation.
Next, the Yellow Turbans will definitely increase their troops to Mengjin with all their might, and Xiaopingjin''s defenders were obviously scared by Xiang Yu. Even with Cao Cao, Sun Jian and Liu Bang, how long can they last?
As soon as he thought of this, Qin Hao couldn''t help but feel a little confused.
Are you really unable to make the situation come true? Qin Hao''s confusion was also seen by Xun Yu, and he couldn''t help but say seriously: "Honey, follow me to Yingchuan quickly, maybe you can find a glimmer of hope there."
In Xun Yu''s heart, these people can be confused or shaken, but Qin Hao, as the head coach, must not be shaken.
Perhaps it is a bit too cruel to put the important task of saving the man on a 15 or 16-year-old boy, but now only Qin Hao can save the man.
The various schools of thought cannot change the strength comparison between the two sides, but it is a force that cannot be ignored. So Xun Yu can only try his luck until now.
When Qin Hao heard this, he smiled bitterly and said, "That''s all. It just so happens that I have something to ask the teacher."
Xun Yu breathed a sigh of relief. He was also afraid that Qin Hao would win the battle that was of little significance in the future, and then go to Yingchuan with him. Even if he could persuade Baijia, it would probably be too late.
Liu Bei stood up and asked with a miserable expression: "June, where should our army go now? According to June''s plan, even if he can successfully defeat Huang Chao, there will be nothing to do..."
Liu Bei was a loyal man of the Han Dynasty, but now he is at this point of collapse, and he is full of despair, so what he says is extremely pessimistic.
Seeing this, Qin Hao interrupted before Liu Bei finished speaking, "Xuande''s words are wrong. Even if this battle cannot change the overall situation, we still have to fight."
Seeing that most people were extremely pessimistic, Qin Hao knew that this would not be possible, so he immediately encouraged, "Did you forget? The Yellow Turbans are full of factions, and Zhang Jiao is old. Once Zhang Jiao dies, the Yellow Turbans will definitely fall into internal strife. As long as we can persevere until that time, we will definitely win the final victory."
Qin Hao''s remarks on saving the country should have been extremely passionate, but the results were not good and did not arouse everyone''s fighting spirit.
Yu Juluo stood up and asked, "Who knows when Zhang Jiao will die? Besides, what does this have to do with our subsequent actions?"
“Of course it’s related.”
After Qin Hao looked around, he said in a deep voice: "The Yellow Turban elites are limited. As long as they can defeat the Yellow Turban elites, they can at least stick to the situation to maintain an invincible situation."
Seeing that everyone was a little moved, Qin Hao continued: "After this battle, Xiang Yu''s position as the successor has basically been determined, and Huang Chao, as another candidate for Zhang Jiao, will definitely not be willing to do so, so he will definitely use his elite to fight our army."
"But if our army really defeated Huang Chao, wouldn''t this make Xiang Yu''s position more stable?" Lu Bu asked, which was also a question in most people''s minds.
"Yes, Zhang Jiao is dead by then. What if the Yellow Turbans can''t get messed up?" Liu Bei said.
When Qin Hao heard this, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth and asked, "Do you really think that if Zhang Jiao made Xiang Yu the heir, Xiang Yu could really control the Yellow Turban Army?"
Everyone was stunned. Isn’t that the case?
Qin Hao''s mouth flashed with disdain and said, "According to this investigation, the Yellow Turban Qu Commander has the military power, and they are all unruly and ambitious? Zhang Jiao can make them loyal because they have a master-apprentice relationship as a bond, while Xiang Yu is different."
"For the Yellow Turbans, Xiang Yu cannot give them a higher status. He has to hand over the power in his hands to be loyal to Xiang Yu. Who would be willing to do this?"
?I was going to prepare for double updates yesterday, but later I was too tired and fell asleep before I finished writing. Today I will make up for double updates, and the second update will be later.
