Chapter 1251: The strategy of collecting wisdom
Chapter 1249: A strategy to gain enlightenment
Five generals including Ran Min and Yuwen Chengdu went together to investigate the identity of the mysterious general, but eventually returned in vain with Qin Hao''s intervention, and this incident also caused quite a stir among the Qin and Jin coalition forces.
The Qin general believed that the lord defended this mysterious man so much that he even punished the five generals, obviously in order to win over this fierce man, and the Qin generals would add one more general in the near future.
The generals of the Jin army had similar ideas to the Qin army generals, but they couldn''t help but blame the governor Wang Meng in their hearts, why didn''t he take this mysterious fierce man back to the Jin army in advance? In this way, after the Qin and Jin are in harmony in the future, the Jin faction will not be surpassed too much by the Qin faction.
Although the Qin and Jin armies were founded by Qin Hao and his son, they represent the interests of two groups of different people. Qin Hao and Qin Wen were fighting on the top. On the surface, although the two armies were as close as brothers, they were constantly competing in secret.
Qin Hao had discovered this a long time ago, but factional disputes could not be avoided no matter what. All he could do was to combine Qin and Jin as soon as possible, so as to avoid the continued expansion of the differences in interests between the two groups.
Unlike the random thoughts of the generals of the Qin and Jin armies, Long Qi, who brought the Ming army to help the war, was jealous and helpless when he learned about it, and of course it was more heavy.
Before leading the army to unite with the Qin army, Long Qi believed that although Qin and Jin were strong, the strength of the Ming Dynasty was also not weak. If the power of the three mountains were integrated, it would not be weaker than after Qin and Jin were integrated.
But after personally contacting and observing the Qin army, and after arriving in Hetao, and visiting the Jin army, Long Qi never dared to think so again.
Regardless of the old iron army and Jin army, just like the newly formed Qin army, the hard training, the excellent equipment, the strong armor, and the sharpness of the horizontal sword... It was simply terrified.
The Qin army may not have been formed for a long time, but it has a large number of brave and good at training soldiers. The overall quality of the entire army is no worse than the main force of the Jin army.
If we add those new equipment that we have never seen even dragons, the overall combat power of the Qin army may even surpass the Jin army.
But the strength of the army was not enough to shock Long Qi so much. What made him even more awe was that the quality of the commander-in-chief and general of the Qin army was definitely the top level in the world.
Even if Long Qi is unwilling, he has to admit that his old opponent Xue Rengui has surpassed him.
But even Xue Rengui is only the second echelon among the Qin army, and Li Cunxiao, Jiang Song, Ran Min, Yuwen Chengdu and others will stabilize him.
Those who are in the same echelon as Xue Rengui include Pei Yuanqing, Xiong Kuohai, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong and other generals.
Long Qi asked himself that with his bravery, he could rank among the top three in the Ming Dynasty. Only Luo Shixin and Zhu Tianpeng were stronger than him, but he couldn''t even rank in the first echelon among the Qin army, which also made Long Qi feel deeply frustrated.
The bravery of Qin generals and the number of people is the best in the world.
If the powerful generals in the world are divided into ten, Qin Hao has already won the fifth one and will not leave any way for other princes to survive.
In addition to the powerful generals, the commanders of the Qin army are also emerging one after another. In front of them, Bai Qi took the lead, and later Xue Rengui, Yue Fei, and Su Dingfang are becoming more mature, and new stars such as Zhou Yu, Xue Rengui, and Tan Daoji are soaring.
Unlike the Qin army''s talent was prosperous, the Ming army had a decline.
The pillars of the military and political circles of the Ming Dynasty were both old people who survived the Yellow Turban era. Newcomers who had not appeared for a long time were quite a trend of being upset.
When thinking about this, Long Qi was worried. The gap between the Ming Dynasty and Qin and Jin was not only the gap in overall strength, but also the gap between senior talents.
Although Qin and Ming armies are in a state of close cooperation, Long Qi knows that this is only temporary.
Qin Hao would not stop expanding externally just because the Ming Dynasty helped him. After expelling Yuan Meng, there will be a battle between the two families sooner or later.
By then, if Qin and Ming start war, what should the Ming Dynasty use to resist the countless famous generals and generals of the Qin army, as well as the elite army armed to the teeth?
One Huguan is far from enough! After seeing the Qin army''s military and the general lineup, Long Qi had no doubt at all whether Qin Hao could defeat Yuan Meng in the end. What he was really worried about was that after expelling Yuan Meng, what would the Ming Dynasty go when facing the stronger Qin army?
Although Long Qi was worried about the future of the Ming Dynasty, he would not cause damage to Qin Hao at such a crisis.
First of all, he only has ten thousand light cavalry in his hands. It would be great if he could participate in such a million-level battle, and he was unable to hold the Qin army back.
Secondly, the dispute between Qin and Ming was more like a fight between their own brothers, while Yuan Meng was an alien robber.
No matter how fierce the fight is between my own brothers, when robbers come to me, they must unite and be united to the outside world. They would rather be cheaper than outsiders.
This is what Long Qi thought, a very simple truth, but most of the princes did not understand, and even wanted to look at the Han brothers and fell under the iron hoofs of the foreign race.
Of course, the princes in the northern border were still very united when facing the invasion of foreign races. Although the support they gave was limited, at least they did not drag their backs.
Long Qi was worried about the future of the Ming Dynasty, but what he didn''t know was that what he saw was what Qin Hao deliberately let him see, and what he showed was the strongest side of the Qin army.
Conquering the Ming Dynasty is not a simple matter. Although in the Ming Dynasty, whether it is Emperor Zhang Sheng, Prime Minister Zhang Liang, or Sikong Guo Jia, they are all from Qin Hao''s people, they still cannot accept it directly.
The hatred between Qin Hao and the Ming Dynasty has been around for a long time. The Yellow Turban Uprising failed because of Qin Hao. There are many people in the Ming Dynasty who hate Qin Hao, and Guo Tai is the most typical example.
But if this hatred cannot be resolved, even if Qin Hao forced his way to take over the strength of the Ming Dynasty, these surrendered generals will inevitably rebel in the future.
Therefore, if you want to conquer the Ming Dynasty, you must first calm down. This joint battle against Yuan Meng is an excellent opportunity to resolve grudges.
Qin Hao deliberately showed the unparalleled soft and hard power of the Qin army in front of Long Qi. After defeating and expelling Yuan Meng, the Qin and Jin armies combined into one, and the power of the later period will also soar to the peak.
At that time, the Qin army had already had the invincible momentum, and the ministers of the Ming Dynasty had to consider how to go in the future.
If the Qin army is forcibly accused of being an enemy, the Ming Dynasty, which is not strong enough, will sooner or later embark on the road to destruction.
At this time, Qin Hao took the initiative to propose marriage to Emperor Ming, demanding the merger of Qin and Ming families into one, promising to implement the "Celestial Land System", and promised not to reduce the status of the Ming civil and military ministers.
With the trust basis for this cooperation, the ministers of the Ming Dynasty would have a certain trust in Qin Hao, and Emperor Ming and the senior officials would definitely agree that the resistance of the ministers of the Ming Dynasty would be the lowest. In addition, after the merger of Qin Ming, he would have the strength to unify the world in the short term.
With such a combination of many parties, Qin Hao can conquer the Ming Dynasty without any worries.
"Grandmaster, Qin Gong sent someone to invite you to attend the military and political meeting."
Long Qi was stunned when he heard this. He was just a guest army. Why should he invite himself to attend the meeting of the Qin and Jin armies?
Although he didn''t understand Qin Hao''s intention, Long Qi would not refuse. After all, he would be able to further the Qin army''s civil and military ministers, and he would not miss the opportunity to obtain enemy intelligence.
"Wait a minute, I will go there." Long Qi said in a deep voice.
