Chapter 807: Strong joining forces


    Chapter 805: Strong alliance


    After Li Shimin''s re-arrangement, the military allocation ratio of Sizhou will be: Hulao Pass 100,000 troops, Luoyang 90,000 troops, Mengjin Pass 50,000 troops, Xuanyuan, Guangcheng and Yique Passes 20,000 troops, a total of 60,000 troops, each of Xuanyuan, Guangcheng and Yique Passes 20,000.


    It has to be said that although Li Shimin dispersed his troops in this proportion, he had the support of 90,000 new forces from Luoyang, which also made Sizhou''s defense reach a nearly impeccable level.


    All the eight passes in Luoyang are the world''s most powerful passes. If there are too many troops, they cannot be deployed. Another 20,000 to 30,000 is enough to support for a long time. If the troops lose too much, they will be able to send reinforcements from Luoyang.


    As for why Li Shimin had to allocate so many troops at Hulao Pass, it was mainly because Qin Hao and the main force of the coalition forces were here.


    Qin Hao has always been known for his resourcefulness. God knows what kind of backup plan he will arrange? Li Shimin was not completely sure that he could stop it, so he relied on increasing his troops to improve his confidence.


    Li Shimin''s ability to match troops is so powerful that he also includes many political factors.


    Yang Jian’s prestige in the Liang army in Sizhou was too high. In order to prevent Yang Jian from hindering himself, Li Shimin did not let Yang Jian go to the front line but stayed in Luoyang.


    In this way, Yang Jian was isolated from his 100,000. Although Li Shimin left 90,000 troops for Yang Jian, this part of the army was brought from Yong Liang. It was impossible for Yang Jian to completely control it in such a short time.


    On the road leading to Hulao Pass, Li Shimin and Yang Guang rode side by side, and behind him were tens of thousands of cavalry galloping.


    “Stack, frame…”


    Yang Guang waved his whip and said to Li Shimin beside him with a smile: "Shimin, you have made my father very angry this time. After my father came home, he scolded you many times in front of me."


    Li Shimin felt a stern and then smiled bitterly: "I really feel sorry for Uncle Yang this time, but I really can''t do anything about it. Who made my opponent this time be Qin Hao? So I must not leave any troubles for myself."


    "No need to explain who we are with. My father may be dissatisfied, but I will definitely stand on your side. After all, I want to defeat Qin Hao once."


    A strong sense of unwillingness flashed in Yang Guang''s eyes, and he also regarded Qin Hao as an opponent like Li Shimin.


    In the past, Yang Guang and Li Shimin looked up at Qin Hao''s glory together, but now Li Shimin is on the same level as Qin Hao, but he can only watch the two fight.


    What can Yang Guang do if he lacks his own abilities? I can only support my good friends with all my heart and strength, and strive to defeat Qin Hao, the common enemy they are like.


    After hearing what Yang Guang said, Li Shimin finally felt completely relieved. With Yang Guang here, the 100,000 troops belonging to Yang Jian would definitely be able to obey the orders.


    "A Guang, Qin Hao has never lost a single defeat so far. He is an extremely difficult opponent, but it is by no means impeccable."


    Li Shimin looked at Yang Guang with a sincere face and said in a deep voice: "This battle will definitely be very difficult to fight, but I believe that as long as you join forces with me, you will definitely be able to defeat Qin Hao."


    Li Shimin''s ambition is greater than that of Dong Zhuo. He really wants Yang Guang, the brother who grew up with him, to help him, but he dare not invite Yang Guang easily.


    As Yang Jian''s only surviving son, Yang Guang has no idea of ??his ability, and he will also have the potential to become a prince in the future.


    If Li Shimin spoke out for invitation, it would be fine if he succeeded, but if he failed, their friendship would end here, which Li Shimin didn''t want to see.


    Besides, Li Shimin believed that he could impress Yang Guang, there was nothing else except friendship.


    Getting Yang Guang is equivalent to getting 100,000 Yang Jun, and Li Shimin was not qualified to ask Yang Guang to assist him at this time.


    Yang Guang stared at Li Shimin''s eyes for a long time, and Li Shimin looked at him without fear at all. After a while, Yang Guang laughed embarrassedly.


    "How can anyone in this world be undefeated?" Yang Guang''s eyes were full of fighting spirit and said in a deep voice: "Xiang Yu is amazing enough, but he died in battle on the north bank of the Yangtze River? A generation of myths was shattered. Now let us join forces to break Qin Hao''s undefeated myth."


    "good."


    Infected by Yang Guang''s words, Li Shimin''s eyes were full of fighting spirit, and then he burst into laughter.


    Qin Hao, this battle is either you lose or I die. Li Shimin made up his mind.


    ———


    Through a little trick, Li Shimin easily controlled the military power and minimized the instability in the Liang army.


    In comparison, the price Qin Hao paid to conquer a prince was much greater.


    Since Qin Hao served as the leader of the coalition forces for more than half of the votes, and with the new grains to share with the princes, his current prestige is at its peak.


    With Qin Hao''s current prestige, even if he wants to establish a new emperor, the opposition among the coalition forces will probably not be too loud. However, as long as he deals with matters about the vital interests of the princes, he will inevitably be strongly resisted.


    For the princes in the world, there is actually no difference between who will become emperor. Anyway, you can''t reach your territory, as long as you don''t infringe on your own interests.


    But Qin Hao, the leader, is different. His orders will involve his own interests.


    The elements of the Dong coalition are too complicated. The interests of all parties seem to be incomprehensible. As long as they involve their own interests, Qin Hao will not easily compromise.


    Let’s not mention anything else. Just taking the coalition military ration issue alone, this is simply an unsolvable problem.


    As we all know, war is about logistics and foundation, and the amount of food and grass required to raise soldiers is completely different from the ones sent. The military ration consumed during war is basically twice as much as that of raising soldiers.


    This time, the coalition forces of Dong-de dispatched a total of nearly 550,000 troops. It can be said that they can basically eat a hill every day. The total amount of military ration consumed in the entire battle is not an exaggeration to say that it is an astronomical figure.


    Such a massive amount of military rations is naturally impossible to bear the burden of the princes, and no prince can afford it.


    It is clearly a truth that everyone knows, but when it comes to solving the problem, everyone is shirking responsibility for each other.


    In order to coordinate the major princes, Qin Hao even held six meetings of princes, but it is difficult to reach a perfect plan so far.


    For the sake of the little profit, the major princes were quarreling like philanthropists, and they had no intention of dedication at all.


    If we delay this, even if the army is finally trained, the coalition forces may face the dilemma of sending troops without food.


    In order to avoid this embarrassing situation, Qin Hao decided to cut off the mess quickly and use his power to force large grain farmers to supply military rations to the coalition forces.


    Thank you for your rewards, heroic jade, heroic bronze, love your life, and the flower blossom in the south city, thank you for your support!
