Chapter 1919: 120,000 Qin troops went to Peiping
Huo Guang, Xue Gang and others were not even afraid of death, so they naturally would not abandon the Han Dynasty and join Wang Mang. They only had to temporarily commit themselves to Wang Mang's command in order to escape from the Qin army's pursuit.
Wang Mang naturally knew what Huo Guang and others were thinking, but he didn't care. After all, how could he spit out the fat on his lips?
After Wang Mang's power initially got on the right track, it can be said that he lacked everything, but the most lacking thing was talents.
Wang Mang seems to be living well in the Three Koreas, but his life is actually not easy. Chenhan, Mahan, and Baekje have formed an alliance, advancing and retreating together, and formed a three-nation coalition to attack in three directions.
Chen Qingzhi really has no rivals in the three Koreas, but his ability to command troops is strong, but he can only block the enemy army of one country. Who can stop the armies of the other two countries?
Even if Wang Mang personally leads the army to fight on one side, there is still another group that is in a situation where there is no general to send, and even if he searches the entire army, he cannot find a general who can lead the army.
It is precisely because of this that Wang Mang risked war with the Qin army and traveled thousands of miles to rescue Huo Guang and others.
Didn’t Wang Mang know the risks of rescuing Huo Guang and others? Of course he knew, but he also knew what the joining of Huo Guang, Xue Gang and others meant to him, a weak force.
Only with the assistance of these people, his power can grow in a short period of time, he can repel the invasion of the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces, and he can have the opportunity to complete the She Tun Xiang unification of the three Koreas.
So, from the very beginning, Wang Mang never thought of letting Huo Guang and others leave.
If Wang Mang wants to rescue Huo Guang and others, he only needs to adopt a tough attitude. It is impossible for Zhang Liang to really go to war with him, but he shamelessly accepts Huo Guang as his adoptive father and Xue Gang as his adopted brother. It's just to build relationships so that we can retain these people.
Of course, Wang Mang also knew that it was impossible to retain these loyal ministers based on this alone, but he still had a set of combinations, such as marrying Huo Guang's daughter Huo Shuixian who was studying abroad, and marrying his adopted daughter to Xue Kui and Xue Gang Marriage etc.
Huo Guang left thinking about helping Wang Mang unify the three Koreas, but he didn't know that Wang Mang had already prepared a series of set meals for them.
From the moment I stepped onto Wang Mang’s boat, it was not so easy to think about it.
At the same time, inside Yanjing City.
Liu Bingji, who was obviously from the Liu clan but became a commoner, was practicing well when he sneezed inexplicably.
“Ah cut.”
Liu Bing had already rubbed his nose and said to himself: "It's strange, why do you sneeze when you are so good? Someone must be scolding me, forget it, think of something happy."
Yanjing City has been unsealed. In order to prevent being liquidated by the Qin army, it is best to leave as soon as possible. But although the world is so big, where can I, Liu Bing, go? "
After thinking for a while, Liu Bing already remembered a person.
"By the way, you can go to Wulongyuan to hide. It is a Buddhist pure land, and Miss Huo Narcissus is also there."
When he thought of Huo Shuixian, Liu Bing couldn't stay any longer. He threw down his sword, took some dry food and some broken silver, and prepared to leave Yanjing City.
But after arriving at the city gate, Liu Bing found out that he could go out, but the interrogation was still very strict, and there was a risk of exposing his identity, so he had to go back and wait for the limelight to pass. What Liu Bing no longer knew was that this hesitation had become the biggest doubt in his life, ruining his final fate with Huo Shuixian. When they met again, his former lover had become someone else's wife.
Looking back to Zhang Liang.
Zhang Liang advised Qin Hao, and after seizing the equipment traded to Wang Mang, he returned to Yanjing City with Generals Xue Huolu, Wei Zifu, mother and son.
The three generals are still in Yanjing and it will be impossible for them not to go back.
In addition, there are still some trivial matters in Yanjing that require Zhang Liang to take charge of.
When Zhang Liang returned to Yanjing, Bai Qi had also arrived.
After accepting Wei Qing's surrender, Bai Qi left 10,000 troops to guard Zhuoxian and 10,000 surrendered troops, and headed for Yanjing with 30,000 troops. After Bai Qi's army arrived, the Qin army's strength in Yanjing reached an astonishing 130,000. Of course, this army will soon go north to fight against the Qing Dynasty.
After some discussions, Bai Qi decided to lead Su Dingfang, Huo Qubing, Lu Bu, Sun Lingming and other generals to lead an army of 120,000 to the north to fight against the Qing Dynasty, leaving Xue Rengui to lead an army of 10,000 to guard Yanjing to prevent the remaining puppet Han forces in various parts of Youzhou from rebelling. .
Although the Northern Han Dynasty has been destroyed and Liu Che committed suicide, his influence is still there, and there are still a lot of people who love Liu Che.
Until the people's hearts are completely surrendered, even if the Qin army has occupied the entire Northern Han Dynasty, they still cannot be careless at all.
In order to prevent the remnants of the Northern Han Dynasty from surrendering and revolting in the rear when the Qin army on the front line was fully engaged in fighting against the Manchu Qing Dynasty, sufficient troops must be left to guard various places.
As the 120,000 Qin troops from Yanjing rushed to the front line and joined the 140,000 troops from Youbeiping, the distribution of Qin troops in Youzhou changed drastically again, with nearly 260,000 troops concentrated in Youbeiping County.
Of course, Guangyang Zhuojun and other five counties have also left sufficient troops. The specific distribution of troops is as follows:
Guangyang, the defenders are 10,000, and the troops are surrendering 10,000.
Daijun had 10,000 garrison troops and 27,000 prisoners.
Going up to the valley, there were five thousand defenders and six thousand prisoners.
Zhuojun, the garrison of 10,000 troops, the surrender of 10,000 troops, and 30,000 prisoners.
Yuyang, the defenders were 7,000, the troops surrendered, 4,000, and 10,000 were captured.
Xue Rengui stayed in Yanjing, commanding 42,000 troops and 30,000 Northern Han surrender troops, responsible for guarding and stabilizing various parts of Youzhou.
In addition, there are 83,000 prisoners of war scattered in various counties and counties, ready to be organized into an army at any time.
In other words, if the battle situation on the front line is unfavorable, the Qin army can also dispatch 155,000 troops to support the front line and fight against the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
The Manchu Qing army in Youzhou, even if Chen Guo surrendered the army, only had a total of 320,000 troops.
The Qin army deployed 260,000 troops on the front line alone, and there were 155,000 troops in the rear for reinforcements.
This is enough to show that in this battle between Qin and Qing, the Qin army already had an advantage in terms of national strength alone.
If the Manchu and Qing dynasties want to reverse the situation, they can only increase their troops. However, the Manchu and Qing dynasties still have to guard against Yuanmeng, Goguryeo, Chenhan, Mahan and other forces. Obviously, there are not many troops that can be mobilized.
At this time, the Manchu Qing Dynasty was in a dilemma.
“Military advisor, the matter of integrating the surrender of the puppet Han army must be left to the surrender of the puppet Han generals.”
Xue Rengui looked at Zhang Liang and asked, "I wonder if the military advisor has a suitable candidate."
“Wei Qing, the former general of the puppet Han Dynasty, is the best candidate.” Zhang Liang replied.
"I naturally know that Wei Qing is the best candidate to integrate and surrender the troops, but Wei Qing would rather die than surrender." Xue Rengui said with a slight headache.
“General Xue, please rest assured. After Liang recovered Wei Zifu, mother and son, the first thing he did when he returned to Yanjing was to lobby Wei Qing, and he has now been persuaded to surrender to our army.”
