Chapter 986: Mianchi Meeting (Part 1)
Chapter 984: Meeting in Mianchi (Part 1)
The two levels of Xuanyuan Pass are different, Hulao and Guangcheng. The last two levels were defeated by Qin Hao''s people, so they naturally belong to Qin Hao.
Xuanyuan Pass was led by the Yuan brothers, so the previous garrison was always from the Yuan family.
However, before leaving the alliance, Yuan Shu also agreed to withdraw the garrison from Xuanyuan Pass, but now he breached the contract and refused to deliver the deposit, which made Qin Hao both unexpected and angry.
Yuan Shu had not even unified Yuzhou, and was still competing for Jianghuai with Liu Yao. At this time, it was a thankless thing for him to occupy Xuanyuan Pass. The only function was to suppress Qin Hao and make him disperse his troops and unable to fight Dong Zhuo with all his strength.
Recalling Yuan Shu''s timidity in front of him, Qin Hao thought he was afraid of Yuan Shu. Now it seems that it was just Yuan Shu''s disguise. He still underestimated Yuan Shu, but now it has been backfired.
I have to say that Yuan Shu’s move was just right, and it hit Qin Hao’s seven inches.
Before taking Sizhou completely, Qin Hao was indeed not good at stimulating Yuan Shu too much, otherwise if the two fronts start a war, it would not be a quarrel.
"I don''t know who this Yuan Gaolu believed, so I will do something that is not up to date."
Qin Hao sneered and said, "He didn''t have to think about it and knew that this was definitely not Yuan Shu''s idea. After all, Yuan Shu would never use such an accurate perspective and pattern view."
As for the person behind this, Qin Hao probably could not be someone else except Zhao Kuangyin.
"Forget it, I will take a step back this time, but I can remember this Qiu Benhou."
Although Qin Hao cannot do anything to Yuan Shu for the time being, fighting for dominance of the world is not a matter of a day or a gentleman''s revenge for ten years.
"Guan Sheng did a good job this time. The situation is special now, so it is indeed not appropriate to stimulate Yuan Jun."
A hint of praise flashed in Qin Hao''s eyes, and he ordered in a deep voice: "Send the order and order Guan Sheng to camp at the Yique Pass site, and rebuild Yique Pass."
Then Qin Hao turned his head again and said to Xun Yu: "Wenruo, I will leave it to you to fully be responsible for the reconstruction of Yique Pass. You must come up with a charter as soon as possible."
The two passes of Dagu and Yique among the eight passes of Luoyang have now become ruins, but because their geographical location is too important, even if the reconstruction lasts for a long time and consumes a lot of resources and may even become a burden. However, in order to improve Sizhou''s defense, Qin Hao must rebuild even if he tightens his belt.
"No, but lord..."
Xun Yu frowned slightly and said, "Now Yique Pass is a ruin. Although camping on its ruins is stronger than ordinary camps, General Guan Sheng only has five thousand soldiers and horses in his hands. It may not be easy to defend the southern gate of Sizhou. Do you need to add some soldiers and horses?"
Qin Hao replied after a little thought: "No, although Yuan Shu is unwilling to return to Xuanyuan Pass, he definitely does not dare to fight with our army. Now the battle with Dong Zhuo is imminent, so there is no need to divide his troops to deal with Yuan Shu."
Xun Yu thought about it and found that it was indeed the case. After all, if he really sent troops, he would have completely broken up. Before quelling his internal worries, Yuan Shu would never dare to go to war with Qin Hao.
"Lord, the Henan Yin has just settled down. It is not appropriate to recruit labor service at this time. Xiliang prisoners of war can be used to repair the pass." Xun Yu said seriously.
Qin Hao nodded immediately. After all, these Liang army prisoners also consumed a lot of food and supplies of the Qin army. Instead of letting these people eat free rice, it would be better to use it to build Yique Pass.
"Xun Yan, go to Yuzhou to question Yuan Shu, why don''t you keep your promise? Remember to be tougher. Yuan Shu dare not break up with our army."
"No."
Looking at Xun Yan''s back as he left, Qin Hao knew that he would definitely return in vain. After all, the success of diplomacy is based on military basis, but it is extremely necessary to send envoys to show their attitude.
"Report... Report to the lord, Dong Zhuo''s army is about to arrive in Mianchi in three days." Qin Hao''s eyes suddenly froze when he heard this. After taking a deep breath, he said in a deep voice: "Everyone, it''s time to decide whether to belong to Sizhou."
All the generals looked excited when they heard this, while Qin Hao shouted, "Where are Qin Jian and Su Dingfang?"
"The last one will be there."
"I ordered you two to lead an army of 20,000 to guard Luoyang, Qin Jian was the main general, and Su Dingfang was the deputy general."
"No."
"This time, I will personally lead an army of 100,000 to Mianchi to fight Dong Zhuo to the death."
Qin Hao looked directly at the generals with his double pupils and said in a deep voice: "Bai Qi, Xue Rengui, Li Cunxiao, Ran Min, Jiang Song, Qin Wu, Pei Yuanqing, Zhao Yun, Xu Chu, Huang Zhong, Luo Cheng..."
"The last one will be there."
"You will go to Mianchi with me and will not give up until you defeat Dong Zhuo."
"No."
The next day, after the oath ceremony, Qin Hao led his troops to leave Luoyang, while the people of Luoyang walked across the road and saw him off for ten miles.
Listening to the cheers loved by the people on both sides, both the Qin army soldiers and the Jin army soldiers were full of pride.
Zhou Yu, who had arrived in Luoyang with reinforcements, couldn''t help but sigh after seeing this scene: "It''s less than two months since the lord entered Luoyang, and he has already won the hearts of Luoyang people. As long as he can defeat Dong Zhuo this time, Sizhou will completely fall into the hands of our army."
Bai Qi on the side said, "You only see the people of Luoyang support the lord, but you don''t see how much the lord paid for the hearts of Luoyang people."
Zhou Yu suddenly showed a surprised look, and after thinking about it carefully, he felt relieved. After all, the funds used for disaster relief in Luoyang were seized from the hands of the princes, and this alone is enough for the people to be grateful.
The vast 100,000 Qin troops set off to Hongnong County and Mianchi County, and Dong Zhuo''s 50,000 troops also arrived in Mianchi soon.
Mianchi is just a small county town with a population of tens of thousands, but it is located at the intersection of Mianchi, Hanoi and Yin counties in Henan. The story of "Mianchi Meeting" happened here and has been passed down for thousands of years.
After more than four hundred years, Mianchi once again attracted the attention of the world, but the protagonists this time were no longer Qin Zhaoxiang King Yingji and Zhao He, King Huiwen King Zhao He, but Liang King Dong Zhuo and Qin Hou Qin Hao.
Later historians called this historical event the "second meeting of Mianchi".
Late at night, inside the Liang army camp.
Shortly after Dong Zhuo arrived in Mianchi, Jia Fu received a letter from his father Jia Xu. He was busy with military affairs during the day and had no time to read it, so he dragged it until night to disassemble it.
Jia Fu originally thought it was just an ordinary letter to home, but when he read a line of words, he was scared and sweated.
Of course, Jia Fu knew his relationship with the Qin family, otherwise he would not have let the Qin generals go on the battlefield several times, but now it is finally time for him to leave Dong camp.
Although Jia Fu knew that his father had a grand plan, he couldn''t help but take a breath after reading the letter. He deceived the guards and returned to the east with the emperor in the heart of the Liang army. Is this really possible?
