Chapter 986 The Meeting in Mianchi (Part 1)
Chapter 984: Meeting in Mianchi (Part 1)
Xuanyuan Pass is different from Hulao and Guangcheng Pass. The latter two passes were conquered by Qin Hao's people, so they should naturally belong to Qin Hao.
Xuanyuan Pass was captured by the Yuan family brothers, so the previous garrison was always from the Yuan family.
However, before withdrawing from the alliance, Yuan Shu also promised to withdraw the garrison at Xuanyuan Pass, but now he openly violated the contract and refused to deliver the contract. This made Qin Hao both surprised and angry.
Yuan Shu has not even unified Yuzhou, and is still competing with Liu Yao for Jianghuai. At this time, seizing Xuanyuan Pass is completely thankless for him. The only function is to suppress Qin Hao, so that he can disperse his troops and cannot use all his strength. Fight against Dong Zhuo.
Recalling how Yuan Shu was submissive in front of him, Qin Hao thought he had frightened Yuan Shu. Now it seems that it was just Yuan Shu's disguise. He still underestimated Yuan Shu, and now he has suffered backlash.
I have to say that Yuan Shu's move was just right, hitting Qin Hao's seven inches.
Before he completely captures Sizhou, Qin Hao really shouldn't provoke Yuan Shu too much, otherwise once the two fronts start fighting, it won't end in a fuss.
“This Yuan Jiujiu, I don’t know whose lies he believed, so he did some things that are not worthy of publicity.”
Qin Hao sneered and said, he knew without thinking that this was definitely not Yuan Shu's idea. After all, Yuan Shu would never have such a precise vision and pattern.
As for the person behind this, apart from Zhao Kuangyin, Qin Hao probably could not be anyone else.
“That’s all, I will take a step back this time, but I will remember this enemy.”
Although Qin Hao can't do anything about Yuan Shu for the time being, conquering the world will not happen overnight. It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years.
"Guan Sheng did a good job this time. The current situation is special and it is really not appropriate to provoke Yuan Jun."
A hint of approval flashed in Qin Hao's eyes, and he ordered in a deep voice: "Send the order, and order Guan Sheng to camp at the Yique Pass ruins, and also to rebuild Yique Pass."
Qin Hao then turned around and said to Xun Yu: "Wen Ruo, I will leave it to you to take full responsibility for the reconstruction of Yique Pass, and you must come up with a charter as soon as possible."
Among the eight passes in Luoyang, Dagu and Yique passes have now been reduced to ruins. However, because of their geographical location, they are too important. Therefore, even if the reconstruction takes a long time, consumes a lot of resources and even becomes a burden, in order to improve it, Sizhou's defense must be rebuilt even if Qin Hao tightens his belt.
“No, but my lord…”
Xun Yu frowned slightly and said: "Now Yique Pass is in ruins. Although the camp on the ruins is stronger than the ordinary camp, after all, General Guan Sheng only has 5,000 soldiers and horses in his hands. If he wants to guard the south gate of Sizhou, he will probably It’s not easy. Do we need to add more troops?”
Qin Hao thought for a while and then replied: "No, although Yuan Shu is unwilling to return Xuanyuan Pass, he absolutely does not dare to fight with our army. Now that the battle with Dong Zhuo is imminent, there is no need to divide his troops to deal with Yuan Shu."
Xun Yu thought about it and found that it was indeed the case. After all, if he really sent troops, he would be completely embarrassed, and Yuan Shu would never dare to go to war with Qin Hao before the internal troubles were settled.
"My lord, Henan Yin has just settled down. It is not appropriate to call for labor at this time. Xiliang prisoners of war can be used to repair the pass." Xun Yu said seriously.
Qin Hao nodded immediately. After all, these Liang Army prisoners also consumed a lot of food and grass from the Qin Army. Rather than letting these people eat for nothing, it would be better to use them to build Yique Pass.
“Xun Yan, go to Yuzhou and ask Yuan Shu why he didn’t keep his promise. Remember to have a tougher attitude. Yuan Shu will not dare to break up with our army.”
)
Looking at Xun Yan's leaving back, Qin Hao knew that he would definitely return in vain. After all, the success of diplomacy was based on military success, but it was also extremely necessary to send envoys to show attitude.
"Report... Lord, Dong Zhuo's army will arrive at Mianchi in three days." Upon hearing this, Qin Hao's eyes suddenly condensed, and after taking a deep breath, he said in a deep voice: "Everyone, the time has come to decide the ownership of Sizhou."
All the generals looked excited when they heard this, and Qin Hao shouted: "Where are Qin Jian and Su Dingfang?"
“The end will be here.”
“I order you two to lead an army of 20,000 to guard Luoyang, with Qin Jian as the chief general and Su Dingfang as the deputy general.”
)
“This time I will personally lead an army of 100,000 people to Mianchi to fight Dong Zhuo to the death.”
Qin Hao looked directly at the generals with heavy eyes and said in a deep voice: "Bai Qi, Xue Rengui, Li Cunxiao, Ran Min, Jiang Song, Qin Wu, Pei Yuanqing, Zhao Yun, Xu Chu, Huang Zhong, Luo Cheng..."
“The end will be here.”
"You and I will go to Mianchi with you. We will not give up until Dong Zhuo is defeated."
)
The next day, after the swearing-in ceremony, Qin Hao led his army to leave Luoyang, while the people of Luoyang walked ten miles to see each other off.
Listening to the loving cheers of the people on both sides, both the officers and soldiers of the Qin Army and the Jin Army looked proud.
Zhou Yu, who arrived in Luoyang with the reinforcements not long ago, couldn't help but sigh after seeing this scene: "My lord has already won the hearts of the people of Luoyang in less than two months after taking control of Luoyang. As long as Dong Zhuo can be defeated this time, Sizhou will completely fall to our army." hand."
Bai Qi on the other side said: "You only saw the people of Luoyang supporting the lord, but you didn't see how much the lord paid for the people of Luoyang."
Zhou Yu suddenly looked surprised. After thinking about it carefully, he was relieved. After all, the disaster relief funds used in Luoyang were taken from the hands of the princes. This alone is enough for the people to be grateful.
The mighty Qin army of 100,000 marched towards Hongnong County and Mianchi County, and Dong Zhuo's 50,000 army also arrived at Mianchi soon after.
Mianchi is just a small county with a population of tens of thousands, but it is located at the junction of the three counties of Mianchi, Hanoi, and Henan Yin. The story of the "Mianchi Meeting" took place here and has been passed down for thousands of years.
More than four hundred years later, Mianchi once again attracted the attention of the world, and this time the protagonists were no longer King Zhaoxiang of Qin Yingji and King Zhao Huiwen Zhao He, but King Dong Zhuo of Liang and Marquis Qin Hao.
Later historians called this historical event the ‘Second Mianchi Meeting’.
Late night, inside the Liangjun camp.
Soon after Dong Zhuo arrived in Mianchi, Jia Fu received a letter from his father Jia Xu, but he was busy with military affairs during the day and had no time to read it, so he delayed opening it until night.
Jia Fu originally thought this was just an ordinary letter from home, but he was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat after reading just one line of words.
Jia Fu certainly knew the relationship between his family and the Qin family, otherwise he would not have let off Qin generals several times on the battlefield before, but now it was finally time for him to leave Dong Ying.
Although Jia Fu knew that his father had a grand plan, he still couldn't help but take a breath after reading the letter. Is it really possible to deceive all the guards in the hinterland of the Liang army and bring the emperor back eastward?
