Chapter 794 Qin Hao and Liu Xiu
Chapter 792: Qin Hao and Liu Xiu
Qin and Jin jointly camp.
Qin Jian patted Qin Hao on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Good nephew, your fourth uncle, I have brought you a total of 30,000 cavalry this time."
After hearing the ''good nephew'' this time, Qin Hao couldn''t help but twitch slightly.
He is almost the father of three children, but in the eyes of elders like Qin Jian and others, he still seems to be a minor.
When he heard that 30,000 of the 50,000 Jin troops who came this time were cavalry, a hint of joy flashed in Qin Hao''s eyes.
"Thirty thousand Bingzhou wolf cavalry, plus the ten thousand elite cavalry under my command, when gathering all the cavalry under the princes, it should be able to gather 100,000 cavalry, which is enough to deal with Dong Zhuo''s Xiliang cavalry." Qin Hao said in his heart.
The Jin army was different from the Qin army. The Qin army wanted to develop cavalry, but the war horses were not enough.
After the Jin army occupied Hetao, there were so many war horses that one person could not even ride on both horses, so the elite troops were even extravagant to the point of one person and three horses.
Now the ratio of infantry and cavalry in the Jin army has even reached one to one, which means there are 100,000 cavalry among the 200,000 Jin army.
Of course, the reason why such a large cavalry team was maintained was to guard against the increasingly powerful Yuan and Mongolia Empire in the north.
Among the 500,000 Liang troops, the Western Liang Iron Cavalry accounted for about 20%, and they also had 100,000 cavalry.
Dong Zhuo could not transfer all the Western Liang Iron Cavalry over. This time he could mobilize up to 60,000 cavalry to deal with the coalition forces of the princes. Qin Hao competed with 100,000 cavalry, and the chance of winning was quite high.
The quality of the cavalry under the princes can be different from that of the infantry.
Because it is very difficult to form a cavalry unit and can almost be said to be piled up with money, so as long as it can be formed, it will definitely be an elite soldier.
There are still many princes with cavalry teams, but most of them are small-scale cavalry. Apart from Dong Qin, there are only three princes with more than 10,000 cavalry, Liu Yu, Gongsun Zan, and Yuan Shao. Even Yuan Shu does not have ten thousand cavalry under his command, which shows how luxurious cavalry is.
After Qin Hao and Qin Jian talked about some family matters, he finally couldn''t help it and asked, "Uncle Fourth, is the father-in-chief''s health okay?"
"Brother is in good health and is very easy to handle government affairs, but he is just unable to continue leading the army."
"Just be tough, by the way, is the father and coach still angry with me?"
"Good nephew, don''t blame my uncle for saying you a few words."
Qin Jian showed doubt and asked, "What are the conflicts between you father and son? Do you need to be so chaotic?"
Prosecutor Qin did not know the secret of the Qin family, and in the face of Prosecutor Qin''s questioning, Qin Hao could only smile bitterly and change the topic.
What conflicts can there be between Qin Hao and Qin Wen?
It’s not that Qin Wen could not tolerate Liu Mu giving birth to a boy, and Qin Hao could not tolerate his father forcing him to give up his own flesh and blood, so the conflict arose.
Qin Hao did not regret marrying Liu Mu, but he couldn''t help but sigh in his heart that this marriage was simply a sin.
Qin Jian was just a very simple-minded person. After being led by Qin Hao''s few words, Qin Jian also forgot about the previous problems and visited the Qin army under Qin Hao''s leadership.
"Good knife...good crossbow...good..."
Qin Jian visited the tour and was amazed all the way.
Qin Hao left the Jin army and founded the Qin army. Qin Jian thought it would take at least five years to achieve results. After all, it was the same when he and Qin Wen started their business, but the achievements made by Qin Hao stunned him. Both military and political, Qin Hao has almost achieved perfection, which is much better than their miserable situation at that time.
"The young man is so terrifying."
Qin Jian looked sighing and then asked again: "By the way, where are your third brother and fourth brother? Didn''t they follow him this time?"
Qin Hao smiled indifferently and said, "The third brother stayed to stay in Nanyang, while the fourth brother is serving as Bai Qi''s deputy general, mainly responsible for attacking Guangchengguan."
The four counties under Qin Hao''s command, and the three counties are all foreign surnames, so of course Nanyang has to be handed over to people with the Qin surname, and Qin Zheng, who is both civil and military, is the best candidate.
Qin Jian could not help but nodded. When Qin Wen came to the forefront, he asked him to remind Qin Hao that for the monarch, he should also be careful with his loyal subordinates. This is not only for the monarch''s good but also for the good of his ministers.
Seeing Qin Hao arrange Qin Wu with Bai Qi, Qin Jian knew that Qin Hao was well versed in using people, and he also made checks and balances while giving Bai Qi''s rights, so naturally he didn''t need to continue talking too much.
"Report... Report to the lord, Liu Xiu, the governor of Jingzhou, came to visit."
Qin Jian frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "Liu Xiu? He wasn''t he defeated by you just now, and even his own brother Liu Biao was killed in battle. How could he come to visit him on his own initiative?"
Qin Hao also showed a look of thought, and then said, "No matter what tricks you have, you will know when you go and see them."
"Go, Uncle San, I want to visit your Qin army."
"Um."
Qin Hao nodded and strode away. When he lifted the tent of the meeting, a young general wearing silver armor appeared in Qin Hao''s sight. It was Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty.
Before meeting, Qin Hao was very afraid of Liu Xiu, and even wanted to kill him quickly.
But after the actual meeting, Qin Hao found that he had no murderous intention in his heart. Perhaps what he had always feared was Emperor Guangwu in his heart, not the resolute young man in front of him.
Seeing Qin Hao coming, Liu Xiu immediately bowed and said in a deep voice: "Greetings to the Queen of Qin."
Liu Xiu was not at all in etiquette, and was calm and abnormal. He didn''t have the attitude he should have when facing the enemy who killed his brother.
Qin Hao became alert in his heart, but he was calm on the surface. He narrowed his eyes slightly and clasped his fists and said, "Brother Liu doesn''t have to be so polite."
Liu Xiu called Qin Hao the Marquis of Qin, while Qin Hao called Liu Xiu the Brother Liu. On the surface, it was Qin Hao who brought the two closer together, but in fact he did not recognize the official position that Dong Zhuo gave Liu Xiu.
If it were ordinary princes, they would definitely argue with Qin Hao in anger. After all, this is related to his future status in the coalition, but Liu Xiu''s expression did not change at all.
After a while of silence, Liu Xiu deliberately pretended not to know and smiled faintly: "Qin Hou is busy with all his affairs. I am here to disturb him this time. In fact, there is something important to discuss with Qin Hou."
The key point is here. Qin Hao sneered in his heart.
"It''s so. Because of some misunderstandings, not long ago, my army had a small friction with the Marquis'' army, and my beloved general Kou Xun was also captured alive by General Bai Qi."
Liu Xiu looked at Qin Hao with expectations and asked sincerely: "Now both of you and our army are now trying to challenge Dong''s allies, and the previous misunderstandings have been eliminated. I wonder if the Marquis can release Kou Xun, or can I redeem him?"
