Chapter 1741 Japanese pirates attack


    Chapter 1739: Japanese pirates attack


    Han Xin is a very proud person, but this series of failures has caused him to lose all his capital. If he still can''t let go of the air, he will be a little ungrateful, so he has now taken such a low attitude to surrender.


    Zhang He and Gao Lan were afraid that Han Xin would not be able to see the situation clearly, and their arrogant look made Qin Hao dislike him. However, seeing Han Xin''s low attitude, they also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Han Xin still knew it.


    As soon as Han Xin finished speaking, Qin Hao hurriedly ran away, helped Han Xin up with his own hands, and said, "Brother Han is what he said? No one can do without mistakes. Knowing mistakes can improve.


    With Brother Han’s past contribution, even if he made some mistakes, it would not hurt much. Now that he is willing to return to the court, I naturally agree to it, but..."


    At this point, Qin Hao looked at Han Xin''s eyes and smiled faintly, "Our army''s principles have always been: rewards for merits and punishments will be made.


    Since Brother Han made a mistake, he would be punished.


    Of course, since Brother Han was also deceived by Liu Che''s thief, I can give a lighter punishment for Brother Han.


    Let’s do this, I will punish Brother Han to demote the title to two levels. What does Brother Han think? ”


    The two-level reduction in Qin Hao''s name was not based on the King of Han granted by the Northern Han Dynasty, but on the Duke of Han granted by the Luoyang court. After all, the position of King of Han was never recognized by the Luoyang court.


    If Han Xin comes from Duke of the State for two levels, he will be reduced from Duke of the State to Duke of the State, and then from Duke of the State to Duke of the State, and then from Duke of the State to County, and the span between them is not an ordinary big one.


    Han Xin was secretly surprised. He thought Qin Hao would rub him to the end, but he didn''t expect to keep him the position of county marquis for him, which was already very wide and large.


    Although Qin Hao took the initiative to show mercy to Han Xin, it does not mean that Han Xin dared to accept it with peace of mind.


    "I have made such a big mistake this time and voluntarily eliminated all titles and official positions, only to ask the King of Qin to forgive the crimes of the criminals, and I will never dare to think about anything else."


    After saying that, Han Xin was about to kneel down and salute again, but before he could kneel down, he was stopped by Qin Hao.


    Qin Hao didn''t expect that the arrogant Han Xin would be so sensible now, but since Han Xin is willing to surrender and his attitude is so low, even if he is showing off to other surrenders in the future, he will definitely not be able to really rub Han Xin to the end.


    "Brother Han, the crime you committed is not a big deal. The two-level demotion is considered a heavy punishment. Do you think this king''s reward and punishment are unfair?" Qin Hao said pretending to be majestic.


    "this…"


    Han Xin was stunned when he saw this. He thought Qin Hao was just pretending. If he insisted on resigning, Qin Hao would definitely agree, but he did not expect Qin Hao to refuse.


    Qin Hao''s words have reached this point. If Han Xin doesn''t accept this kindness again, he will seem a little hypocritical, so he hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you for your kindness to King Qin."


    "In the future, everyone will be their own people. As long as Brother Han is loyal to me and the court, with your ability, you will be promoted to the position of Duke sooner or later."


    Qin Hao smiled and comforted, after all, he had just surrendered Han Xin''s title, and this was a blow to give him a sweet date.


    "My minister Han Xin, if you make an oath here, you will definitely be loyal to your lord. If you violate this oath, both gods and men will be angry."


    Han Xin''s swearing to be loyal also made Qin Hao completely relieved him. After all, oaths are still very useful in this era, and they will generally never swear easily.


    "Han Xin obeyed the order and now he will demote you two levels and be named Marquis of Hejian County and later general." Qin Hao enthroned him.


    "I thank my lord for your kindness, and Han Xin will definitely remember you."


    Han Xin thanked him, but his heart was filled with sadness. You should know the conditions that Qin Hao had when he persuaded him to surrender, but: Jizhou Governor, Hebei Governor...


    But now Han Xin not only has he been demoted from Duke Han to the Marquis of Hejian County, but he has only one post left with his post, and his military power is not even known where it is.


    After comparing the two, it is very different.


    But Han Xin also knew that he was taking it upon himself. At that time, he held a 100,000 army and occupied one-third of Jizhou, so Qin Hao offered such high conditions.


    Now he is a prisoner of war, with no soldiers, no power, no land, nothing, only one life left, Qin Hao retains his status as a county marquis for him, which is already a blessing from the law.


    "After an ambush on all sides, the entire Han and Zhao coalition army was wiped out, and our army surrendered a large number of prisoners of war."


    As he said that, Qin Hao looked at Han Xin and continued, "I don''t know if you are sure that Brother Han, you will be able to conquer these prisoners for our army."


    The 80,000 surrendered troops taken back to Yecheng by Zhang Liao were not the strong men captured by Su Lie in the Bohai Sea, but the army with great combat power. Once incorporated, it would be of great help to the Qin army.


    If you don’t accept it and just keep it in jail, it will waste food and the Qin army will also need to divide some of its troops to guard it, which will not be worth the loss. The best candidate to command the surrendered army is naturally Han Xin.


    Hearing this, Han Xin was immediately delighted. He didn''t expect Qin Hao to use him so soon.


    Han Xin was originally going to make a promise to Qin Hao, but he felt it was inappropriate, so he replied after a little thought: "Report to the lord, the only way to conquer the Han army''s surrendered troops is to be conquered. As for the Zhao army''s surrendered troops, if you want to completely subdue it in the short term, you may have to convince Yuan Tan to surrender."


    Hearing this, Qin Hao couldn''t help but show a headache. Although he had never seen Han Xin before, he had met Yuan Tan.


    Although Yuan Tan was afraid of death, he was very strong and would rather die than surrender to Qin Hao, the enemy who killed his father, so it was quite difficult to make him surrender.


    Seeing Qin Hao''s expression, Han Xin knew that it would be unsuccessful to persuade Yuan Tan to surrender, so he immediately said, "Lord, the last general has a good personal relationship with Yuan Tan, and is willing to lobby Yuan Tan for surrender."


    “Really, that’s great.”


    Qin Hao showed joy and asked again, "I wonder how confident Brother Han is?"


    “70%.”


    "Enough. Now Yuan Tan has been taken back to Yecheng. Please set off immediately, persuade Yuan Tan to surrender as soon as possible, and subdue all prisoners of war into an army."


    "No." Han Xin responded with great enthusiasm, and then left Hejian and went to Yecheng with the task of incorporating the surrendered army.


    After Han Xin arrived in Yecheng, he immediately reorganized the prisoners of war, and the reorganization of the former Korean army went very smoothly. After all, even the old leader Han Xin had surrendered, and senior generals such as Zhang Kui, Chen Qi, Zheng Lun, Gao Ming, and Gao Jue also followed the trend. Naturally, there was nothing to stick to at the bottom of the army.


    But the reorganization of the Zhao army surrendered troops was not smooth. Even if Han Xin personally persuaded Yuan Tan, Yuan Tan still did not surrender, but his tone became much looser.


    At the same time, when the Qin army in northern Hebei was about to rush north again after a simple renovation, they received shocking bad news:


    A large number of Japanese pirates appeared in the coastal areas of Qingbei.


    ?The monthly ticket exceeded 400, and I still owe three chapters in total.


    ??
