Chapter 482: Bai Qi seizes the leadership position
Liu Ye's remarks immediately made Qin Hao's eyes light up, and he immediately exclaimed, "What a great idea."
In troubled times, heroes emerge, and in a great era like the Three Kingdoms, many great talents failed to show their full brilliance, such as Liu Ye.
Liu Ye, who focuses on the two theories of military and engineering, can still put forward refreshing views after joining Qin Hao, even if he is on the same stage as Liu Ji, Wang Meng and others.
The Ming Dynasty is the Yellow Turban, but the Yellow Turban is not the Ming Dynasty, so it is impossible for everyone to continue to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty.
Liu Ye suppressed some while trying to win over others. This was the best way to differentiate at this time, and at the same time, it could also minimize the damage to his own side.
“Sir, do you have a specific action plan?” Qin Hao asked with a smile.
This is actually a useless question. Since Liu Ye took the initiative, there must be a follow-up plan.
The reason why I ask this is actually to give Liu Ye a chance to show off. As the lord, Qin Hao cannot always steal the limelight from his subordinates.
As expected by Qin Hao, Liu Ye looked confident and said calmly: "My lord, when Li Mi first took over Nanyang, it was the magistrates of Zhi County, Ye County, and Jie County who took the lead. It has the support of more than a dozen counties, but there are also many opponents. We might as well start with these three counties and then test the attitude of other county magistrates. "
Qin Hao nodded slowly and thoughtfully. From this paragraph alone, it can be seen that Liu Ye was truly prepared and was definitely not acting on a whim.
“What a good plan. Since this plan was proposed by sir, the task of lobbying those losers will be left to you, sir.”
“Okay, okay, but...”
Seeing Liu Ye's expression of confusion, Qin Hao immediately said: "If you have any difficulties, please feel free to raise them."
“My lord, if there are more than thirty counties in Nanyang, would it be too inefficient to let the next person do the lobbying?”
Qin Hao was stunned. He also had no political experience, so he ignored this detail.
Qin Hao smiled slightly awkwardly and said: "I didn't think well enough. This is good. I will let Mr. Zhou Yi and Fang Qiao help you complete this task together."
Zhou Yi and Fang Xuanling stood up immediately. After smiling at each other and Liu Ye, the three of them raised their hands together and said: "No!"
If Qin Wen hadn't known about Zhou Yi's ability, he would definitely have detained him as well. As a rare internal affairs talent in Qin Hao's hands, Zhou Yi was also reused after coming to Nanyang, and was directly named the title of Qin Hao. Main book.
Qin Hao glanced at the generals and said: "In the three counties of Zhiyeji, I wonder which general is willing to lead the army to attack?"
“I will go where I will in the end.”
Bai Qiyue Fei and Xue Rengui were the first to stand up, and then all the generals called for battle in unison. No one among the generals was willing to give in, and the hall suddenly became a mess.
Upon seeing this, Qin Hao immediately looked towards Wang Meng and Liu Ji for help. After Wang Meng understood, he stood up and said:
"My lord, why don't we attack in three directions first to show our army's determination to regain Nanyang."
“Yes, this will definitely deter some outsiders.” Liu Ji added.
"good."
After Qin Hao calmed down, he immediately began to order generals.
“Where are Bai Qi, Yue Fei, and Xue Rengui?”
“The end will be here.” Bai Qi and the three generals responded together. "You and the other three are the first to ask for battle. Then each of you three will lead 3,000 soldiers and horses and choose a county to attack."
Seeing the lord, it is better to order the generals according to the order of battle. The other generals all thought that they must be faster next time.
At this time, Qin Hao thought of another good idea, so he said: "By the way, whoever among the three of you can capture the selected city in the shortest time and with the lowest casualties will be the main general in the battle to conquer Nanyang from now on." , no one can be dissatisfied by then.”
Bai Qi and the other three generals couldn't help but feel a fighting spirit in their eyes. The position of the general must be something no one wants to give up, so even his comrades can only earn a little bit.
The three generals looked at each other and said in unison: "I will obey your order!"
Seeing that his men were so motivated, Qin Hao immediately smiled and said: "Okay, as for the helper, you can choose it yourself, but only one person."
What Qin Hao didn't expect was that Gao Shun, who was not very powerful, would become the focus of the three people's fight.
Thinking about it, there are only 3,000 soldiers and horses in the expedition. If there are 1,500 elite troops in the battle to help, then the victory is basically guaranteed.
Seeing that none of the three were willing to do so, Qin Hao had no choice but to order the trapped camp not to fight. In fact, he did not want the trapped camp to be lost in the siege.
But even if the trapped camp was not allowed to fight, the three of them still wanted Gao Shun. Qin Hao never expected that Gao Shun would be so popular, but he couldn't directly intervene, so he could only let Gao Shun make his own choice.
Gao Shun also looked flattered. After deliberately coughing twice, he said, "In that case, I'd better choose Brother Bai."
“Brother Gao, don’t worry, we will definitely win this time.” Bai Qi said confidently.
Yue Fei and Xue Rengui both looked disappointed. They also knew that it was because they joined late and Gao Shun was not familiar with them.
In the end, both Yue Fei and Xue Rengui had a tacit understanding not to choose a high-strength general. Yue Fei chose Zhang Liao, who had a good relationship, while Xue Rengui chose Yu Jin.
Of course, this is not because the three of them do not know the role of the strong generals, but if they rely solely on the personal force of the strong generals, the contest between the three will change.
Qin Hao sighed when he saw this. In the eyes of top commanders like them, group strength is indeed the most important!
The three counties of Pheasant and Yeji are all die-hard members of the Ming Dynasty, and each has only about a thousand garrison troops, so Qin Hao dared to divide his troops.
The result was not what Qin Hao expected. The three generals easily captured the selected city, but the process was beyond Qin Hao's expectation.
Xue Rengui, Yu Jin's team, broke through the county town with only one attack. He got the first kill simply and rudely, with 300 casualties and 500 prisoners.
Yue Fei and Zhang Liao's combination used sneak attack tactics, which ultimately took three hours and resulted in 100 casualties and 800 prisoners.
As for the combination of Bai Qi and Gao Shun, the two have simply brought the art of war to the extreme.
Bai Qi and Gao Shun attacked and harassed each other, using various tactics such as power fatigue battle, feint attack fatigue battle, and psychological tactics respectively. They forced the defenders in the city to completely collapse and had to take the initiative to leave the city and surrender.
In the end, the combination of Bai Qi and Gao Shun took one day to break through the city, causing 24 casualties and capturing more than a thousand enemy troops.
After the news came out, not only Yue Fei and Xue Rengui were dumbfounded, but Qin Hao and all the generals were also dumbfounded.
Given the abilities of Qin Hao's generals, if the conditions are the same, basically everyone is capable of breaking through. It's just a matter of the length of time and the number of casualties.
But Bai Qi used his miraculous ability to lead troops and taught everyone an unforgettable lesson. It turns out that war can be fought in this way.
The final candidate for the commander-in-chief was naturally quite obvious. Bai Qi won the position of commander-in-chief in the battle to recapture Nanyang in one fell swoop, while both Yue and Xue expressed their sincere resignation.
