Chapter 1249: Inventive Strategy
Ran Min, Yuwen Chengdu and other five generals went together to explore the identity of the mysterious general. However, due to Qin Hao's intervention, they finally returned without success. This incident also caused quite a stir among the Qin and Jin coalition forces.
The generals of the Qin Army believed that the lord defended this mysterious man so much that he even punished five generals. He obviously wanted to win over this fierce man. The Qin Army will have one more general in the near future.
The generals of the Jin army had similar thoughts to the generals of the Qin army, but they couldn't help complaining about the governor Wang Meng. Why didn't he take this mysterious fierce man into the Jin army in advance, so that after the Qin and Jin merged, the Jin clan would not be surpassed by the Qin clan too much. .
Although the Qin and Jin armies were both founded by Qin Hao and his son, they represented the interests of two different groups of people. Qin Hao and Qin Wen were on top to control them. Although on the surface the two armies were as close as brothers, secretly they were Ye Ziah is constantly competing.
Qin Hao has discovered this a long time ago, but factional disputes cannot be avoided no matter what. All he can do is to unite Qin and Jin as soon as possible, so as to avoid the continued expansion of the differences in interests between the two factions.
Unlike the random thoughts of the generals of the Qin and Jin armies, Long Qie, who brought the Ming army to help the battle, felt jealous and helpless in his heart after learning about it. Of course, he was even more heavy-hearted.
Before leading the army to join forces with the Qin army, Long Qie believed that although Qin and Jin were strong, Ming's power was not weak either. If the power of the three mountains were integrated, it would not be weaker than after Qin and Jin merged into one.
But after personally contacting and observing the Qin army, and after arriving in Hetao, and visiting the Jin army, Long Qie no longer dared to think so.
Let's not forget the old Iron Army and the Jin Army, let's talk about the newly formed Qin Army. Its hard training, excellent equipment, strong armor, and sharp swords... It is simply scary to see.
The Qin army may not have been established for a long time, but it has a large number of generals who are brave and good at training. The overall quality of the entire army is high, not much worse than the main force of the Jin army.
If you add in the new equipment that even Long Qi has never seen before, the overall combat power of the Qin army may even surpass the Jin army.
Just the strength of the army was not enough to shock Long Qie. What made him even more awed was that the quality of the Qin army's commanders and generals was absolutely among the best in the world.
Even if Long Qie is unwilling, he has to admit that his old rival Xue Rengui has surpassed him in strength.
But even Xue Rengui was only in the second echelon among the Qin army. There were Li Cunxiao, Jiang Song, Ran Min, Yuwen Chengdu and other generals in front of him to stabilize him.
In the same echelon as Xue Rengui are generals such as Pei Yuanqing, Xiong Kuohai, Zhao Yun, and Huang Zhong.
Long Qie asked himself that with his bravery, he could be ranked among the top three in the Ming Dynasty. The only people better than him were Luo Shixin and Zhu Tianpeng, but he could not even be ranked in the first echelon among the Qin army. This also made Long Qie feel Deep frustration.
The Qin generals’ bravery and numbers are unrivaled in the world.
If the world's fierce generals were divided into ten, Qin Hao had already obtained five of them, leaving no way for other princes to survive.
In addition to fierce generals, the Qin army also had an endless stream of commanders. In the past, there was the "Invincible God of War" Bai Qi who took the lead alone. Later, Xue Rengui, Yue Fei, and Su Dingfang became more mature, and there were also new stars such as Zhou Yu, Xue Rengui, and Tan Daoji who rose to the top.
Different from the Qin army where the talents were at their peak, the Ming army was in decline.
The mainstays of both the military and political circles of the Ming Dynasty were all old people who survived the Yellow Turban era. There had been no newcomers who could stop them for a long time, and there was quite a tendency for the sun to fade away.
Thinking of this made Long Qie very worried. The gap between Ming Dynasty and Qin Jin was not only the gap in overall strength, but also the gap between high-level talents.
Although the Qin and Ming armies are now in a state of close cooperation, Long Qie knows that this is only temporary.
Qin Hao will not stop his external expansion just because Ming Dynasty has helped him. After expelling Yuan and Meng, sooner or later there will be a war between the two families.
At that time, if Qin and Ming go to war, facing the Qin army's countless famous generals and marshals, as well as the elite army armed to the teeth, what should Ming do to resist?
One Huguan is not enough! After seeing the armaments of the Qin army and the lineup of generals, Long Qie had no doubt that Qin Hao could finally defeat Yuan Meng. What he was really worried about was that after expelling Yuan Meng, facing the more powerful Qin army, Ming Dynasty would again Where to go from here?
Although Long Qie was worried about the future of Ming Dynasty, he would not cause harm to Qin Hao at this critical moment.
First of all, he only has 10,000 Qingqi in his hands. It would be good for him to participate in such a million-level battle, and he is simply unable to hold back the Qin army.
Secondly, the dispute between Qin and Ming was more like a fight between brothers, while Yuan and Meng were robbers from outside.
No matter how fierce the quarrel between brothers is, when robbers come to your door, they must unite and deal with the outside world. They would rather take advantage of their own family than take advantage of outsiders.
This is what Long Qie was thinking. It was a very simple truth, but most of the princes did not understand it. They even wished to see the Han brothers fall under the iron hoof of the foreigners.
Of course, the princes of Northern Xinjiang were very united when facing the invasion of foreign tribes. Although they gave limited support, at least they did not hold back the enemy.
Long Qie was worried about the future of 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 also the strongest side of the Qin army.
Conquering the Ming Dynasty is not an easy task. Although in the Ming Dynasty, whether it is the Ming Emperor Zhang Sheng, the Prime Minister Zhang Liang, or the Sikong Guo Jia, they are secretly Qin Hao's people, but they still cannot accept them directly.
The hatred between Qin Hao and Ming Dynasty has been going on for a long time. The Yellow Turban Uprising failed because of Qin Hao. There are many people in Ming Dynasty who hate Qin Hao. Mrs. Guo is the most typical example.
But if this hatred cannot be resolved, even if Qin Hao forcibly takes over Ming's strength, these surrendered generals will definitely continue to rebel in the future.
So, if you want to conquer the Ming Dynasty, you must first win over the Ming Dynasty, and this joint fight against Yuan Meng is an excellent opportunity to resolve the grievances.
Qin Hao deliberately showed the unrivaled soft and hard strength of the Qin army in front of Long Qie. After defeating and expelling Yuan Meng, the power of the Qin and Jin armies will surge to its peak in the later period when the Qin and Jin armies merge into one.
At that time, the Qin army was already invincible, and the officials of the Ming Dynasty had to consider how the Ming Dynasty would go in the future.
If he forcibly becomes an enemy of the Qin army, the Ming Dynasty, which lacks strength, may be on the road to destruction sooner or later.
At this time, Qin Hao took the initiative to propose marriage to Emperor Ming, requested that the Qin and Ming families be merged into one family, promised to implement the "Tianguo Tianmu System", and promised never to lower the status of the civil and military ministers of the Ming Dynasty.
With the trust foundation of this cooperation, the ministers of the Ming Dynasty will also have a certain degree of trust in Qin Hao, and the Emperor Ming and the higher-ups will definitely agree, and the resistance of the ministers of the Ming Dynasty will be reduced to a minimum. In addition, the merger of Qin and Ming Dynasty Later, he had the strength to dominate the world in a short period of time.
With the combination of so many parties, Qin Hao was able to conquer the Ming Dynasty without any worries.
“Grand Governor, Duke Qin sent someone to invite you to attend the military and political meeting.”
Long Qie was stunned when he heard this. He was just a guest. Why should he be invited to attend the meeting between the Qin and Jin armies?
Although he didn't understand Qin Hao's intention, Long Qie would not refuse. After all, if he went there, he would be able to further the Qin army's civil and military officials. He would not miss the opportunity to obtain enemy intelligence.
“Wait a moment, I’ll be there right away.” Long Qie said in a deep voice.
