Chapter 1647: Emergency expansion of the army of 100,000


    Chapter 1645: Expand the army by 100,000


    Qin Hao made so many transfers, but did not transfer a super general. The main reason was that the war in Hebei was the last moment to decide the outcome.


    Other generals, even Zhao Yun, who is at the God of War level, will not have much impact on the Qin army after being transferred from the Hebei battlefield. However, once the super **** general is transferred, it will directly affect the Qin army''s strategy to Hebei.


    The main reason for the attack of the Southern Han Dynasty was to prevent the Qin army from occupying Hebei. If the war in Hebei could end, the Southern Han Dynasty naturally had no need to worry about it.


    Therefore, Qin Hao would rather defend the difficult points on the base camp than drag down the progress of the battle situation in Hebei.


    "It was too risky to fight against the 230,000 troops of Tang and Shu with 150,000 troops of Si and Jing. In the end, it was a bit too risky, in order to be more secure..."


    Qin Hao''s eyes couldn''t help but a trace of flesh hurt flashed, and then he said in a deep voice: "I sent an order to the governor of Jingzhou Qin Zheng and Sizhou Han Fei, and the two states immediately launched an expansion of their troops, including 70,000 Jingzhou and 30,000 Sizhou, a total of 100,000 troops."


    Zhuge Liang and Liu Bowen were both stunned, and then they opposed Qin Hao''s decision at the same time.


    "Lord, the time when the country is over, expanding the army at this time is just a waste of money and food." Zhuge Liang advised.


    "It''s just money and food, our army can consume it." Qin Hao replied.


    "But lord, when the army is expanded at this time, the army conquered is just a new army that has never been seen. The help to our army is really limited." Liu Bowen advised.


    "Limited means it is still helpful. Since it is helpful, it must be implemented." Qin Hao said.


    "Lord, let alone 100,000, even 200,000 may not be able to match the 50,000 elites of Shu Tang."


    "Yes, if the new army suffers too much casualties, the pension alone will cause our army''s finances to suffer a heavy blow."


    "Lord, after occupying Hebei, there are more places to spend money, and wasting all the money and food on pensions is not cost-effective."


    The reason why Zhuge Liang and Liu Bowen opposed the expansion of the army was mainly because of the Qin army''s pension system.


    The Qin army was different from other princes. Not only did they pay military salaries, but they also had pensions, and the amount of pensions was not small.


    This is also the main reason why all Qin generals want to minimize casualties when fighting, because if the casualties are too large, this battle cannot be considered a win.


    The new army is also an army within the organization. Once it is killed in battle, it will also enjoy pensions. The new army''s death rate in the battle is extremely high, so the Qin army has never sent a new army to participate in the battle.


    But everything is always exceptional. During the Battle of Hetao, Qin Hao''s father Qin Wen was forced to aggravate by Temujin. He also urgently expanded his army to fight against the Yuanmeng invasion, and eventually killed 190,000 new soldiers.


    The pension of the 190,000 new recruits alone can directly bankrupt the Qin and Jin armies.


    At that time, if Qin Hao had not taken out the treasure of God, the Qin army would have fallen into a financial crisis in the next ten years.


    With the huge supply of funds from the treasure of God, the Qin army''s fiscal revenue and expenditure was still much larger than income in the first year of two years of cultivation. It was not until the second year that the revenue and expenditure ratio gradually became balanced, and until now the income exceeded the healthy development of expenditure.


    The remaining funds in the God of Heaven’s treasure are now less than one-third, and the governance after conquering Hebei also requires a lot of money to be invested.


    Therefore, if the Qin army recruited new recruits at this time, and once the new recruits suffered too much casualties, the post-war pension would become a huge financial burden for the Qin army, and even drag down the development and unification of the Qin army.


    Of course, Qin Hao knew this, but as a monarch, he also had his own considerations from his own perspective. “As the two military advisors said, I naturally knew that the new army can provide little help, but it is still possible to participate in defending the city.


    After the expansion of the army, Sizhou had 50,000 elite new recruits and 30,000 elite new recruits and 90,000 elite new recruits in Jingzhou. It would definitely be no problem to resist the 300,000 troops of Shutang for a month."


    Seeing that Qin Hao didn''t listen, Zhuge Liang and Liu Bowen were still ready to persuade him again, but they were interrupted by Qin Hao before he could speak.


    "Okay, there is no need to say much about the two military advisors. I have decided to make the decision. The two states of Jing will be urgently expanded by 100,000 yuan. That''s it." Qin Hao said without doubt.


    Seeing this, Zhuge Liang and Liu Bowen''s eyes flashed with helplessness. They could obviously solve it at a smaller price, but their lord chose to use money to spend it. They are really rich and willful.


    Seeing that the two no longer objected, Qin Hao felt relieved. In his opinion, the lives of soldiers are far more important than money, while veterans are even more important.


    If Qin Hao was asked to choose between veterans and new recruits, he would rather spend money to let the new recruits die instead of veterans.


    It’s cruel and ruthless, but this is the king.


    "The key to this battle now depends on our army to defeat the Northern Han first, or the Southern Han will break through our army''s defense first."


    Qin Hao''s eyes were full of fighting spirit and said in a deep voice: "Two military advisors, I can no longer stay in Huguan. I decided to go to Yecheng in person to boost morale so that Bai Qi can break through Yecheng as soon as possible."


    The reason why Qin Hao did not say that he went to Julu and Dai County was because Li Jing was about to arrive in Julu, and Dai County involved a plan to join forces with Gongsun Xuanyuan.


    Therefore, there is no difference between Qin Hao going or not on the two sides of Dai County and Julu. Only in Yecheng, Qin Hao personally went there to be the greatest effect.


    Hearing this, Zhuge Liang and Liu Bowen looked at each other and said in unison: "Thank you, lord."


    "What''s the hard work of this? I''ve been in Huguan for the past few months and I''ve been rusted."


    The reason why Qin Hao stayed in Huguan was that he was personally used as bait to lure Han Xin over, while he set up an ambush here in Huguan and captured him or severely injured him, but he still underestimated Han Xin''s prudence.


    As long as Qin Hao can be captured or killed alive, the Qin army will retreat without fighting, and the Northern Han will win the war.


    But in the face of such great temptation from King Qin Hao of Qin, Han Xin was still able to remain calm and indifferent, and directly made the ambush die halfway.


    In this way, Qin Hao led more than a hundred guards and generals such as Sun Lingming to the battlefield in Yecheng.


    At the same time, Li Jing, who led the army to Julu, finally entered Jizhou as quickly as possible after rushing non-stop.


    After receiving the news that Li Jing was killed, Yuan Shao was shocked. He always thought that the person who was conquering Qingbei was Li Jing, but he never expected that Li Jing would hit him under his nose.


    It turns out that Zhou Yu attacked the counties and counties in Qingbei, and he always attacked Li Jing''s banner.


    What Zhou Yu did was mainly because Li Jing had a higher prestige in Qingzhou.


    If Zhou Yu used his own banner, it would obviously be impossible to achieve this effect. After all, who knows who Zhou Yu is in Qingzhou?


    When you use Li Jing''s banner to guide Qingbei, most cities will basically be issued with an edict. A small number of them will be scared to open the city and surrender directly after seeing Li Jing''s banner, which saves Zhou Yu''s time to guide the city by city.


    In addition, Zhou Yu acted under the banner of Li Jing and could also confuse Yuan Shao to cover up Li Jing''s march.
