Chapter 855 Meeting in Luoyang
Chapter 853: Meeting in Luoyang
Apart from Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu didn''t expect that he would become the deputy general along the way. After all, he had been against Qin Hao before, and Qin Hao had no reason to encourage his power.
But soon Yuan Shu thought of a reason why he thought it was very likely.
Yuan Shu thought Qin Hao didn''t like him, but he couldn''t do anything to him, so he simply "sent" him to the other side. Fortunately, he was not upset when he saw him.
"Hmph, Qin Hao, I won''t thank you."
While Yuan Shu was thinking this in his heart, he was secretly glad that he had reconciled with Qin Hao not long ago, otherwise the deputy general of the Southeast Road would have had nothing to do with him.
I have to say that Yuan Shu’s imagination is really big, and what he thinks has nothing to do with what Qin Hao thinks.
The reason why Qin Hao asked the Yuan brothers to lead the army alone to attack Xuanyuan was definitely not what Yuan Shu thought, and the real purpose was two:
1. With the Yuan brothers'' personality of being very fond of merit, after truly leading the army, if they see the rest of the road singing all the way, they will definitely not stagnate because of fear of casualties. What Qin Hao wants is that they need to conquer Xuanyuan Pass for himself.
2. The Yuan brothers have many followers in the coalition, and this time Qin Hao took the opportunity to kick the Yuan brothers and their followers out, which can ensure the purity of the coalition to the greatest extent and completely turn it into Qin Hao''s one-word hall.
The Yuan brothers did not see Qin Hao’s two deep goals, but the other person saw that he was Liu Xiu.
"No, if this continues, Qin Hao''s control over the coalition forces is getting deeper and deeper. He will just tell me what to do when I want to do it."
Liu Xiu''s brain was running quickly, wanting to think of a way to ensure his safety, while Qin Hao watched the princes continue and said, "In the southeast road, in addition to the two princes, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, Zhao Kuangyin, Yuan Yi and Kong Qiong, you three also joined the southeast road army, gathered a hundred thousand troops to attack Xuanyuan Pass together."
Zhao Kuangyin, Yuan Yi and Kong Qiong looked at each other. They were either former officials of the Yuan family or close friends, so they naturally would not refuse to help the Yuan brothers, so they immediately said in unison: "Abide by the orders of the leader of the alliance."
What Qin Hao did not expect was that as soon as the three of them finished speaking, Liu Xiu stood up again and said respectfully: "Report to the leader of the alliance, Xiu is willing to follow Yuan Shao to attack Xuanyuan Pass, and I hope the leader will agree."
Qin Hao didn''t know Liu Xiu''s thoughts. He must be afraid that it was too dangerous to be by his side, so he wanted to leave him and ensure his own safety, but Qin Hao could not let him do what he wanted.
"General Liu Xiu, I know very well the idea of ??your desire to make contributions, but now your troops are less than 2,000, and even if you go to Xuanyuan Pass, it will not play much role, so let''s stay."
Liu Xiu was also a little anxious when he saw that Qin Hao was unwilling to let him go, but soon he calmed down and smiled lightly: "The leader of the alliance has no idea. Liu has been in the prime minister for a long time and wishes he could work with him as soon as possible. Now he finally has a chance. I hope General Benchu ??will not dislike Liu''s small and small army."
In the last sentence, Liu Xiu passed Qin Hao and said it directly to Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao couldn''t help feeling a little proud when he heard Liu Xiu praising him so much. Without thinking too much, he said directly: "Don''t dislike me. Brother Liu comes to help me. Yuan is too happy, so how can he dislike me?"
"Since that''s the case, General Liu Xiu, you should join the Southeast Route Army."
Qin Hao said calmly, but he was already cursing in his heart.
Liu Xiu is simply a loach. As long as Qin Hao is not careful, he will escape from control. Now he directly meets Yuan Shao, making Qin Hao unable to stay even if he wants to.
"Forget it, as long as Liu Xiu is still in the coalition, as the leader of the alliance, I have the opportunity to deal with him. I will let you go for the time being."
Qin Hao thought to himself, and at the same time he couldn''t help feeling a little tired. While calculating Li Shimin, Qin Hao also needs so many foxes to fight wits and courage. He really feels physically and mentally exhausted.
The temporary release of Liu Xiu made Qin Hao feel a little excited, but the Southern Army still had to make arrangements.
"Sun Jian, now you are appointed as the chief general of the Southern Army and Qin Jian as the deputy general. He leads Liu Yao, Lu Kang, Li Mi, Qiao Mao, Bao Xin, and the seven princes, a total of 100,000 troops to attack Guangcheng Pass."
Suddenly, Sun Jian''s eyes flashed, and he immediately stood up and shouted: "Sun Jian accepts the order."
The other six princes also stood up one after another, and except for Liu Yao''s displeasure, the others were not dissatisfied and said in unison: "Abide by the orders of the leader of the alliance."
The geographical location of Guangcheng Pass is very important, and it is the hub connecting Nanyang and Sizhou, so the road must be led by those who are assured.
As Qin Hao''s father''s sworn brother, Sun Jian will definitely not cheat Qin Hao before a conflict of interest occurs. Moreover, Qin Hao also sent his third uncle Qin Jian to check and balance Sun Jian.
In addition, in order to win Guangcheng Pass, Qin Hao also made second-hand preparations, that is, to leave Bai Qi and an army of 60,000.
Of course, these soldiers and horses cannot move if they can stay still. After all, the soldiers and horses of princes are consumed. If they still consume their own troops, wouldn’t that be too stupid?
The 30,000 Bingzhou cavalry under Qin Jian''s command would definitely not be taken away, and the general strength of the princes of the Southern Army was 10,000 or 20,000, so the seven princes gathered up a 100,000 army.
The Southeast Route Army basically belonged to the Yuan family, and the princes belonging to them were also very arrogant and wealthy. Five of the six princes gathered a large army of 100,000, and Liu Xiu was just squeezing in and making up the numbers.
Qin Hao glanced at Liu Xiu who was standing behind Yuan Shao, then glanced at the princes and said in a deep voice: "Tomorrow, the camp will be drawn, and the troops will be divided into three groups. If you don''t enter Luoyang, you will not give up your troops."
"If you don''t enter Luoyang, you will not stop your troops." The princes responded in unison.
Qin Hao showed a confident smile on his face and shouted, "Everyone, let me meet at Luoyang City."
"Meet Luoyang, meet Luoyang..."
In this way, the Kwantung Allied Forces were divided into three, a total of 13 princes, with 200,000 troops and horses, separated from the eastern army and became the southeast and south army.
But even so, the East Road has twenty-three princes and nearly 320,000 soldiers and horses, and is still the most powerful of the three troops.
Before the eastern army was about to pull out the camp and enter Hulao Pass, Qin Hao summoned Li Cunxiao alone.
"Lord, I wonder when will I find the last one?"
Li Cunxiao asked with a chuckling, and he had always been relaxed in front of Qin Hao because his lord would tolerate him in everything.
Qin Hao really likes Li Cunxiao, so he always smiles at him, but this time he is rarely serious, which makes Li Cunxiao feel inexplicably shocked.
Have you not caused any trouble recently? Li Cunxiao thought to himself with a little swaying sound.
