Chapter 1185 Playing with fire and burning yourself
Chapter 1183: Play with fire and burn yourself
Shangdang, within the Southern Alliance Army camp.
Wang Shichong, Zhang Yang, Zhang Chao, Wang Kuang, and the four princes of the South gathered together again.
Although the Southern Alliance went south to Sizhou this time, it was eventually driven back by the Qin army, it did not suffer any losses, but instead made a lot of money.
The troops of the four major princes have been increased to a certain extent, and they have also snatched a considerable amount of food and grass from the two counties of Hedong and Henei, which is enough to support the consumption of more than 100,000 troops.
So in general, Wang Mang was able to do this level with the Qin army, and his chief general was quite qualified.
But now except for Wang Shichong, the other three people are attacking Wang Mang together, while the white-bolt Yellow Turban Thief Guo Tai is cold-eyed Pan Guan, obviously also looks dissatisfied with Wang Mang, and the mercenary commanders of the Chen and Zhang families seem to be completely unrelated.
This is the thing. Although Wang Mang brought the entire army to retreat safely and robbed a large amount of food and grass, it was only a matter of time before Qin Hao entered the south.
Wang Mang has not fulfilled any of the promises made when forming the coalition forces. After a long journey, they are still facing the same situation. How can the princes of Bingnan accept this?
If only this is the case, they would not have attacked Wang Mang. After all, Wang Mang has done his best. He also understands the principle that planning is based on people and accomplishing things.
But Wang Mang had an army of more than 100,000, but Huo Bing, who came alone, took away five or six hundred ferries, and the Qin army had enough ferries to kill them at any time. This made the dissatisfaction of the princes of Bingnan with Wang Mang reach the extreme.
The more fearful the princes of the South were of Qin Hao, the more dissatisfied with Wang Mang, and naturally they became more severely scolded Wang Mang.
"Wang Mang, General Chen Qingzhi said, "You will burn the ferry as soon as you cross the Yellow River. Why don''t you burn it? Now, the boat has been taken away by Qin Hao. The Qin army can cross the Yellow River at any time. Let''s do it together..."
Wang Kuang pointed at Wang Mang''s nose angrily and cursed. After Wang Kuang finished scolding, Zhang Yang and Zhang Chaoze continued to train.
Wang Mang was naturally extremely dissatisfied with the duties and reprimands of the princes in Bingnan, but in order to ensure the stability of the alliance, he could only endure the anger in his heart and endure these things silently.
"If you scumbags, if I hadn''t been on the front line, you wouldn''t have known how you died."
In fact, Wang Mang''s current prestige is above the four major princes. After all, he controlled both of the coalition''s military expansions, and all the materials obtained are in his hands. If he is willing, he can completely put the four people in vain and work alone.
Wang Mang originally planned to seize the military power of the four major princes in one fell swoop after occupying Sizhou, and started with the Southern and Sizhou, but the final plan was not successful.
As long as Qin Hao has a huge threat, Wang Mang will never expose his ambitions, because if he turns against the four princes, he will only be able to get the advantage of Qin Hao in the end, so he can only entrust the four princes with the empty snake.
"If I had known this would have happened, I would have burned the ship."
Wang Mang also felt a little regretful when he thought that the Qin army might have killed the Yellow River at any time after taking the ship.
The reason why he didn''t burn the ship was actually because he wanted to rely on these ships to transport grain from Jizhou and Guanzhong. After all, there was no way to get by land by water, but he didn''t expect that the Qin army would come so quickly. No, Huo Bing was so powerful.
This is the second time that Wang Mang fell into Huo Bing''s hands. He has a strict arrangement of the camp on the north bank of the Yellow River, but he did not expect that Huo Bing would still be easily handled.
"This guy''s sneak attack is so powerful. Even if he is prepared, he may not be able to defend himself. He must be very energetic in the future."
Wang Mang said in his heart that although Huo Bing''s fear had risen to the same level as Xue Rengui.
Zhang Chao was instructing and saw that Wang Mang was actually distracted, he couldn''t help but become more angry, and his words became even more unpleasant, and even involved in the Wang family. Wang Shichong couldn''t sit still.
"Enough, the big mistake has been made. What''s the use of hindsight now?" After hearing Wang Shichong''s words, Zhang Yang and other princes couldn''t help but remain silent. Guo Tai on the side looked disdainful. He had always hated the princes of the Han Dynasty. If it weren''t for self-protection, he wouldn''t have helped Wang Mang.
"What should I do now?" Zhang Yang said in a deep voice.
"The general comes to block the water and soil. Anyway, there is no room for us and Qin Hao." Wang Shichong said lightly.
Wang Mang saw that everyone was extremely pessimistic, as if he had no confidence in the next battle. He knew very well that this would not work, and he had to give them some hope.
"You guys don''t have to be so pessimistic. We are not yet at the end of our lives..."
[Dingdong, Wang Mang’s skill “Qiaoshu” is activated…]
"Although we are not at the end of the road, we are not far away."
Zhang Yang sighed softly, his ambition was not great, he just wanted to save his own acre of land, but in the troubled times, such an idea was still a luxury.
“This is a bad statement.”
Wang Mang''s eyes were full of confidence and said slowly: "We still have reinforcements. As long as she sends troops, she may not lose to Qin Hao."
Wang Mang''s confidence infected everyone, and Wang Kuang asked in surprise: "It''s this time, who else is willing to send troops to help?"
"Taihang, Emperor Ming."
As soon as Wang Mang said this, everyone frowned.
The strength of the Ming army is naturally unquestionable. The powerful generals include Long Qi, Dian Wei, Yue Xi, Li Jin and others, and the counselors include Zhang Liang and Jia Guo. At that time, the Han army also used the power of many princes to drive the Ming Dynasty into the three mountains in one fell swoop.
If the Ming army agreed to come out to help, it would be a timely help to the Southern Alliance, but the key is that the Ming army might send troops?
After hearing Wang Mang''s words, Guo Tailu couldn''t help but sneer and mocked: "Are you expecting that woman to help? Don''t dream. Even if she agrees, she will come to kill Wang Shichong."
Wang Shichong and Mrs. Guo have different natures. Mrs. Guo does not agree with women as emperors, so he is unwilling to return to the Ming Dynasty. Wang Shichong first rebels the Han Dynasty and then surrenders to the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, for the Ming Dynasty, Wang Shichong is a traitor that must be cleaned up.
After hearing Mr. Guo''s words, Wang Shichong subconsciously clenched his fists. Obviously, he also agreed with Mr. Guo''s words. Although the Yellow Turbans were very tolerant at the time, the Ming Dynasty would never tolerate traitors.
“One time and another time.”
Wang Mang waved his hand unconsciously and said in a deep voice: "If our army is inferior to the Qin army, Qin Hao will definitely unite the two states, and how can he allow others to snore on the side of the bed?
With Qin Hao''s strong and domineering personality, he would never tolerate the existence of the Ming army, so Emperor Ming helped us, which was the Ming Dynasty. If our two families united, they would benefit from each other and would suffer from each other. ”
Mrs. Guo couldn''t help but feel speechless after hearing this. After a long silence, he said in a low voice: "You are playing with fire and burning yourself."
