Chapter 788: Discussion on the Dong Alliance (Part 1)
Chapter 786: Alliance for Discussion on the Board (Part 1)
Nanyang, Wancheng, Military and Political Conference.
"Lord, most of the people in the Xun family in Yingchuan have moved to Wancheng, and their subordinates have settled them according to the highest standards." Fang Xuanling said with a smile.
"Okay, but we''re finally here."
Qin Hao looked at Xun Yu on the side and smiled, "Wenruo, another day, you will go with me to invite Duke Ciming (Xun Shuang''s name) to come to my Nanyang Academy as the honorary principal."
There are currently only two principals in Nanyang Academy, namely Cai Yong and Qiao Xuan, and the two are not as famous as Xun Shuang.
Xun Shuang doesn’t even need to join the Nanyang Academy. Just by placing a name under the school, it can attract a large number of students and scholars to Qin Hao, so at the worst, he has to give the title of principal.
Because Dong Zhuo''s persecution of the aristocratic families is becoming more and more serious, there have been many aristocratic families who have recently defected to Qin Hao. The most representative ones are the Xun family in Yingchuan and the Mi family in Xuzhou, and Qin Hao also attaches the highest importance to these two families.
Mi Zhu, the head of the Mi family, had already served as a former Xuzhou master under Tao Qian, but he still gave up his bright future and came to surrender to Qin Hao, a small prefect.
Qin Hao was deeply shocked by Mi Zhu''s courage when he knew that Mi Zhu had come to vote in person.
People are so optimistic about themselves, so Qin Hao of course cannot be stingy and directly named Mi Zhu the magistrate of Nanyang County.
The Xun family, one of the top families in the world, except for Xun Shuang, a great scholar who could not command, the other Xun family heroes were also valued by Qin Hao, such as Xun Yan, Xun Su and others.
Xun Yu also saw Qin Hao''s emphasis on the Xun family, and in addition to being secretly happy, he was also moved.
"Lord, my uncle praised Nanyang Academy and had long thought of going to see it. Even if you don''t invite him, he will still go." Xun Yu said with a smile.
"How can this be the same? The great scholar of Ciming is the age of the generation. This marquis must be invited by this marquis in person to show his identity. Besides, the Duke Bo and the Duke and the Grand Duke were also invited by this marquis. It cannot be treated differently, right?"
Qin Hao insisted on doing this, and Xun Yu was not willing to refuse, so he could only help Qin Hao''s courtesy and politeness.
"By the way, lord, the compensation owed by Changsha and the first batch of 100,000 stones of grain and grass have already been passed through the water to Zhangling. Do you think Han Xuan can be released?"
Qin Hao raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "Come here so soon? It seems that the situation in Jingnan is far more critical than I expected? Forget it, let Han Xuan go back first."
The prefects of the four counties in Jingnan were all killed in battle. Now, except for one county in Changsha, the other three counties are in chaos. If Han Xuan does not go back, he will be cheaper for others.
"Lord, the recruits from the three counties have been summoned. The three generals Yue Fei, Zhang Liao and Xin Qiji are all urging equipment, but the inventory in the warehouse is not enough to change the veterans." Han Feihui reported.
The manufacturing workshops are now creating new equipment, and compared with old equipment, new equipment is much better in all aspects, but the manufacturing cycle has also been much longer.
Among the 130,000 regular Qin army, only 80,000 were equipped with new equipment, and the remaining 50,000 were still waiting for equipment. The 110,000 new army naturally had to line up and wait slowly.
Of course, Qin Hao knew the problem reported by Han Fei. After a little thought, he said in a deep voice: "Let''s do this, let''s go to the new army to get used to the old equipment you have replaced. The new army''s mission is only training and defense, and there will be no mobilization in the short term. Old equipment is enough."
Even the old-fashioned equipment of the Qin army was much better than that of other princes, but the appetite of the Qin army generals was cursed by Qin Hao. When they were used to eating delicacies, no one was willing to eat braised vegetables. The prefects of the three counties all want new equipment, and Qin Hao has no way to increase the production of the laboratories. After all, the laboratories only expanded the production not long ago, so they could only use old equipment to make do with it.
The new army can only line up after the veterans if they want new equipment, but it is estimated that it will be impossible to line up without a few years, because waiting for the new army equipment is equivalent to changing all the employees.
From this we can also see that what Qin Hao lacks most at the moment is time. As long as he is given enough time to allow the 240,000 army to complete the dress-up, even if he fights 500,000 Dong Jun alone, Qin Hao will not be timid at all.
However, Dong Zhuo is about to kill the emperor, and the alliance to challenge Dong is about to be formed, Qin Hao doesn’t have so much time at all.
"Report...Report to the lord, Guanzhong emergency information."
Qin Hao suddenly felt energetic and suddenly stood up to receive the information. After reading it, he immediately showed a solemn look.
This is the information sent by the Jinyiwei. Not only did the news that Liu Bian was rescued by Wang Yue, but it also told Wang Yue that Liu Bian was escaping to Nanyang.
A trace of light flashed through Qin Hao''s double pupils, and then he shouted: "Send the order immediately and block the important roads of the four counties. Any passing personnel must strictly investigate. In addition, the entire army will enter the wartime state and the army will be deported at any time."
Liu Ji and other strategists all showed joy, knowing that the major event that had been planning for a long time was finally about to begin.
Qin Hao glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice: "Where is Xun Yan?"
"I''m here." Xun Yan stood up and said in a deep voice.
"You are now ordered to go to Yanzhou and Yuzhou to envoy you. Be sure to convince Cao Cao to join forces with our army to fight against Dong. In addition, the alliance can be established in Yanzhou."
"No." Xun Yan said in a deep voice.
If the alliance location of the Dongdong Alliance was located in Wancheng, it would be easier for the southern princes to come, but the northern princes must travel thousands of miles.
Yanzhou is located in the Central Plains, which is transparent from north to south, and is close to Sizhou. It can attack Hulao Pass from east to west. It is the best gathering place for the coalition forces.
If you want to meet in Yanzhou smoothly, you must get Cao Cao''s support. In Xun Yan''s opinion, this task is simply a reward for giving credit, because the two sides had already communicated almost the same thing before.
Cao Cao''s Yanzhou also borders Dong Zhuo''s power. In addition, Dong Zhuo also occupied the natural barrier of Hulao, and his troops and financial resources were also far above Cao Cao.
It would be strange that Cao Cao could sleep with such a powerful and domineering neighbor.
For other princes, the alliance’s confrontation with Dong may just be a fun trip, but for Cao Cao and Qin Hao, it was a war related to life and death.
Other princes may be able to beat the water, but only Cao Cao and Qin Hao must do their best, so Cao Cao and his wife will definitely not refuse the alliance.
After Xun Yan left, Qin Hao not only began to issue a manifesto to fight against Dong, but also began to deploy troops.
Qin Hao had a great appetite this time, and he would never stop the army if he was not in full. The major princes might help Qin Hao weaken Dong Zhuo in the early stage, but it would never be possible for Qin Hao to gain such great benefits alone. Therefore, after capturing Luoyang, Qin Hao must rely on Qin Hao to fight alone.
