Chapter 1236 Resisting Yuan and supporting Zhao


    Chapter 1234: Resist Yuan and Zhao


    Let’s talk about Yue Fei’s letter first.


    In the memorial, Yue Fei impeached Jia Xu to command randomly and transferred the 50,000 troops from Jingzhou to reel, delaying the opportunity to fight, making the 8,000 soldiers meaningless, and eventually causing the soldiers in the army to be excited...


    Looking at this memorial of resentment, Qin Hao estimated that Yue Fei was really angry this time.


    Although Jia Xu did not do it for the sake of stability, it is an indisputable fact that the sacrifice of the eight thousand Xiangyang Qin troops lost its due value.


    Qin Hao guessed that the reason why Yue Fei was so angry was not because he was upset by Jia Xu. After all, although Yue Fei''s political attributes are not high, he still has a view of the overall situation. He just felt worthless for the soldiers who sacrificed, so he wanted to seek justice for his soldiers!


    Of course, Yue Fei knew that Jia Xu was thinking about the overall situation, but his eight thousand people could not die in vain, so he had this resentful impeachment letter.


    However, Yue Fei also knew that Jia Xu was the lord''s uncle, so he did not say anything about the demands that made Qin Hao embarrassed by beheading the treacherous slander. He only mentioned at the end that he wanted to "severely punish" Jia Xu.


    Qin Hao also found it difficult for Qin Hao to refuse Yue Fei''s request, after all, Yue Fei''s representative is the voice of the 60,000 troops in Xiangyang.


    Jia Xu''s miserable operation has certainly missed the opportunity for the fight, but Jia Xu just planned to retreat to the Yuzhou army and made great contributions, so it is definitely not appropriate to punish severely.


    Therefore, Qin Hao finally fined Jia Xu for half a year''s salary and was demoted to one level. It was not painful for Jia Xu, but it was also an explanation for Yue Fei.


    After saying that Yue Fei''s letter, Jia Xu''s letter came again. Jia Xu was not waived by himself or impeached Yue Fei, but asked for rewards for Zhao Kuangyin.


    After reading Jia Xu''s book, Qin Hao''s back was covered in cold sweat. He did not expect that Wang Mang, who was forced out of Bingzhou, would cause trouble at such a critical moment in fighting against foreign races, and he really persuaded Yuan Shu to attack Sizhou.


    Qin Hao didn''t know how to evaluate it. Is Yuan Shu''s brain too stupid, or Wang Mang''s "clever tongue" has too strong intelligence reduction effect. In short, Yuan Shu can be said to have played a good hand of cards.


    Yuan Shu took the initiative to provoke the war in a confused manner, and the subsequent trend of the war between Qin and Yu was even more developing in a strange direction.


    Yuan Shu chose to attack Qin''s chief general Zhao Kuangyin, but was forced to rebel by Jia Xu''s moshu. Then, the Yuzhou army, which took the initiative to provoke the war, launched an internal struggle and attacked each other.


    The Qin army not only won without fighting, but also took back Xuanyuan Pass, which had been negotiated many times without a single soldier, but could not get it back. In addition, it occupied the three southwestern counties in Runan.


    Now, in order to fight against Yuan Shu, Zhao Kuangyin has become the first prince to voluntarily submit to the letter, and Qin Hao naturally cannot refuse such a request.


    After pondering for a long time, Qin Hao wrote: "I, General Qin Hao, requested Your Majesty to quickly grant the title of Song Hou Zhao Kuangyin, the prefect of Runan, to serve as the governor of Song Duke and Yuzhou, and to lead his troops to attack the rebel Yuan Shu..."


    Yuan Shu took the initiative to attack Sizhou at this time. Although he had retreated now, this behavior was already rebellious.


    Qin Hao represented the Luoyang court, and they had already been knocked to the door. If there was no reaction, the court would definitely lose all its prestige in the future, let alone make the princes in the world surrender.


    Since Yuan Shu dared to provoke him on his own initiative, Qin Hao naturally didn''t need to be polite. Now Zhao Kuangyin is still at a disadvantage in the confrontation with Yuan Shu, so Qin Hao weakened Yuan Shu by supporting Zhao Kuangyin.


    As the first prince to submit to the letter, the court naturally could not be stingy when dealing with Zhao Kuangyin, otherwise what would other princes think?


    Qin Hao distributed the Yuzhou Governor who belonged to Yuan Shu to Zhao Kuangyin, which made Song and Yuan, who were originally irreconcilable, no possibility of mediation unless one side fell completely.


    As for the position of Duke Song, to be honest, Zhao Kuangyin is not qualified to be granted a title of Duke yet, but as long as he gets rid of Yuan Shu as a rebellion for the court, he will naturally be qualified to be granted a title of Duke.


    After writing, Qin Hao picked up the letter and checked it again. After confirming that there were no typos, he couldn''t help but sigh: "I don''t know if helping Zhao Kuangyin at this time will create a great enemy in the future." Although Qin Hao sent out a licensing edict that was of little significance to him, Zhao Kuangyin''s receipt was not a simple licensing edict, but a great righteousness.


    With this edict, Zhao Kuangyin was just in the confrontation with Yuan Shu, while Yuan Shu would become a rebel, and if he didn''t, he would be a rebel.


    It is precisely because this edict was crucial to Zhao Kuangyin and even the key to competing with Yuan Shu for Yuzhou that he was willing to exchange the three counties with a population of nearly 100,000.


    In Qin Hao''s heart, Zhao Kuangyin''s threat was much greater than Yuan Shu. Although Yuan Shu had an army of 200,000 at this time, and Lian Po, one of the four famous generals of the Warring States Period, seemed to have completely gained the upper hand, but the final result was still difficult to make a conclusion.


    Even if Yuan Shu wins in the end, the Yuzhou army will definitely be seriously injured. But if Zhao Kuangyin wins, there will be a difficult opponent in the Central Plains, and the difficulty of fighting in the Central Plains will definitely increase in the future.


    Qin Hao knew this but still wanted to help Zhao Kuangyin. However, the court at that time could not refuse any surrender of the princes. In addition, helping Zhao resisted Yuan could also weaken the comprehensive strength of Yuzhou to the greatest extent. In the end, the price Zhao Kuangyin paid was enough to win the recognition of the court.


    The above three points forced Qin Hao to help Zhao Kuangyin.


    "Forget it, it''s still early to conquer Zhao Kuangyin in the Central Plains. The most urgent thing is to solve the enemy Temujin in front of you first."


    Whether it was the formation of the Southern Alliance before or the scammers behind the scenes, Wang Mang''s existence has already made Qin Hao unbearable. If he is not eliminated, he will definitely suffer greater losses in the future.


    "The seven swords of the Jinyiwei were sent together to assassinate Wang Mang at all costs."


    Now Wang Mang is on his way to exile in the Central Plains, and there is no large army guarding him, and there is only a giant left by his side.


    As a **** of war, the giant may have the power to compete with the great master, but the seven swords can surpass the great master in one, so the seven people are more than enough to join forces.


    After handling Wang Mang''s affairs, Qin Hao turned his attention to the military affairs in Hetao.


    After Qin Hao entered Hetao with 40,000 cavalry, he did not go to meet with the main force of the Jin army, but stayed in Yinchuan County. Later, Bai Qi''s 100,000 army and Long Qi''s 10,000 light cavalry also stayed in Yinchuan County after entering Hetao.


    At this point, Yinchuan County has a total of 150,000 regular troops, including 100,000 infantry and 50,000 cavalry.


    The reason why Qin Hao did not leave Yinchuan County and went north to join the main army was mainly because the garrison of Yinchuan County was too weak and the regular army was pitiful. Nearly 80% of the garrison personnel were newly recruited from the people.


    Since the 400,000-yuan Mongolian Iron Cavalry entered Hetao, the flat Hetao was in a panic. The Yuan Mongolian Iron Cavalry could gallop freely in the thousand-mile Hetao, and the Han army could only passively defend and block it.


    When Qin Hao arrived in Yinshan County, the seven counties in Yinchuan had already fallen into three counties (it was originally ten counties, but they were burned down by Murong Ke). With the help of Qin Hao and the generals, the other four counties finally survived.


    It was not until Bai Qi''s 110,000 troops arrived that Qin Hao snatched back the other three counties one after another, completely driving Yuan Meng''s forces out of Yinchuan County.
