Chapter 1739: The Wokos are coming

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 put it down on the shelf, he will be a little ignorant, so now he has put on such a low profile to surrender.

Zhang He Gaolan was very afraid that Han Xin would not be able to see the situation clearly, and he still looked arrogant and disliked Qin Hao, but seeing Han Xin's low profile, they were also secretly relieved in their hearts, Han Xin was still self-aware.

As soon as Han Xin's words were finished, Qin Hao hurriedly ran down, helped Han Xin up with his own hands, and said, "Brother Han, where are you talking about this, no one can be a sage or sage, and knowing mistakes can improve a lot."

With Brother Han's past merits, even if he made a little mistake, it would not hurt, and now that he is willing to return to the court, this king naturally has no objection, but ......"

Speaking of this, Qin Hao looked at Han Xin's eyes and said with a light smile: "Our army's standard has always been: merit must be rewarded and punished.

Since Brother Han has made a mistake, he must be punished.

Of course, for the sake of Brother Han being deceived by Liu Che's thief, this king can punish Brother Han lightly.

In this way, Brother Han will be punished for being demoted by two levels, what does Brother Han think? ”

The two levels of demotion in Qin Hao's mouth did not start from the king of Han who was sealed by the Northern Han Dynasty, but from the Duke of Han who was sealed by the Luoyang court, after all, the position of the king of Han was never recognized by the Luoyang court at all.

If Han Xin was a general, he would be demoted from the position of the prince of the country to the prince of the country, and then to the prince of the county, and the span between them was not ordinarily large.

Han Xin was secretly a little surprised, he thought that Qin Hao would push him to the end, but he didn't expect to reserve a county marquis position for her, which was already a lot of space.

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

"The minister made such a big mistake this time, and voluntarily removed all titles and official positions, only asking the king of Qin to forgive the crimes of the guilty minister, and the others would never dare to be delusional."

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

Qin Hao didn't expect the arrogant Han Xin to be so knowledgeable about current affairs now, but now that Han Xin is willing to surrender, and his posture is still so low, even if it is to make an example for other people who surrender in the future, he will definitely not be able to really push Han Xin to the end.

"Brother Han, the crime you committed is not big, and the demotion to two levels is already considered a heavy punishment, do you think that this king's reward and punishment are unfair?" Qin Hao pretended to be majestic and said.

"This ......"

Han Xin was stunned when he saw this, he thought that Qin Hao was just pretending, if he insisted on asking for his resignation, Qin Hao would definitely agree, but he didn't expect Qin Hao to refuse.

Qin Hao's words had already mentioned this reward, and if Han Xin didn't accept this kindness, it would be a little hypocritical, so he hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you King Qin for your great kindness." ”

"In the future, everyone will be their own people, as long as Brother Han is loyal to the king and the court, with Brother Han's ability, the position of the prince of the country will be promoted back sooner or later."

Qin Hao smiled and comforted, after all, he had just demoted Han Xin's knighthood, and this could be regarded as a stick and a sweet date.

"Minister Han Xin, hereby swears that he will be loyal to the lord, if this oath is violated, the gods and men will be angry."

Han Xin's oath of allegiance also reassured Qin Hao, after all, oaths are still very useful in this era, and they will never swear easily.

"Han Xin listened to the order, and now he will demote you to two levels, and make you the marquis of Hejian County, and then the general." Qin Hao canonized.

"Thank you for your kindness, Han Xin must be remembered within five years."

Han Xin thanked him, but his heart was full of sourness.

The conditions that Qin Hao had set when he persuaded him to surrender were but: Jizhou Mu, Hussar General, and Hebei Metropolitan Governor...... has both military power and political power, which is better than Bai Qi.

Now Han Xin has not only been demoted from Han Gong to the Marquis of Hejian County, but there is only one rear general left in the official position, and the military power is not known yet.

After comparing the two phases, it can be said that there is a world of difference.

However, Han Xin also knew that this was his own doing, he had an army of 100,000 at the beginning, and he occupied one-third of Jizhou, so Qin Hao would offer such high conditions.

And now he is a lonely prisoner of war, with no soldiers, no power, no land, nothing, only one life left, Qin Hao also retained the status of a county marquis for him, which is already an extrajudicial grace.

"In a battle of ambush on all sides, the Han and Zhao coalition forces were completely annihilated, and our army surrendered a large number of prisoners of war."

Saying that, Qin Hao looked at Han Xin and continued: "I don't know if Brother Han can you be sure that you can subdue these prisoners for our army. ”

The 80,000 troops who were escorted back to Yecheng by Zhang Liao were not the strong men captured by Su Lie in the Bohai Sea, but an army with not weak combat power, and once it was absorbed, it would be a great help to the Qin army.

And if it is not accepted, if it is locked up like this, it will not only waste food, but the Qin army also needs to allocate a part of the troops to guard it, and the best person to command this surrendered army is naturally Han Xin.

Hearing this, Han Xin was overjoyed, he didn't expect Qin Hao to use him so soon.

Han Xin was originally going to pack a ticket to Qin Hao, but he felt that something was wrong, so he replied after a little contemplation: "Lord Qi, the last general can only be sure of subduing the Han army, as for the Zhao army's surrender, if you want to completely subdue it in the short term, I'm afraid you must persuade Yuan Tan to surrender." ”

Hearing this, Qin Hao couldn't help but have a headache, although he hadn't seen Han Xin before, he had seen Yuan Tan.

Although Yuan Tan is afraid of death, he has a lot of backbone, and he would rather die than surrender to Qin Hao, the enemy who killed his father, so it is not easy to make him surrender.

When Han Xin saw Qin Hao's expression, he knew that it would definitely not be smooth to persuade Yuan Tan to surrender, so he immediately said: "My lord, the last general has a good personal relationship with Yuan Tan, and he is willing to persuade Yuan Tan to surrender." ”

"Really, that's great."

Qin Hao showed joy, and then asked, "I don't know how sure Brother Han is?" ”

"Seventy percent."

"Enough. Now that Yuan Tan has been escorted back to Yecheng, I also ask Brother Han to leave immediately, persuade Yuan Tan to surrender as soon as possible, and accept all the prisoners of war and reorganize into an army. ”

"No." Han Xin responded with a fist full of energy, and then left Hejian for Yecheng with the task of collecting and surrendering the army.

After Han Xin arrived in Yecheng, he immediately launched the reorganization of the prisoners of war, and the reorganization of the original Korean army was very smooth, after all, even the old master Han Xin had already been reduced, and senior generals such as Zhang Kui, Chen Qi, Zheng Lun, Gao Ming, and Gao Jue also took advantage of the trend, and the soldiers at the bottom naturally had nothing to insist on.

But the reorganization of the Zhao army's surrender was not smooth, even if Han Xin personally persuaded Yuan Tan, Yuan Tan still surrendered, but his tone was much looser than before.

At the same time, when the Qin army in northern Hebei was about to move north again after some simple repairs, it received shocking bad news:

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