Chapter 1234: Resist Yuan and Aid Zhao

Let's talk about Yue Fei's book first.

Yue Fei impeached Jia Xu for indiscriminate command and wanton transfer of 50,000 troops from Jingzhou to and fro, delaying the fighters, making the sacrifice of 8,000 soldiers meaningless, and finally causing the sergeants and soldiers to be excited......

Looking at the slow performance of this grievance, Qin Hao estimated that Yue Fei was really angry this time.

Although Jia Xu also did not do anything for the sake of stability, it is also an indisputable fact that the sacrifice of the 8,000 Xiangyang Qin troops lost its due value.

Qin Hao guessed that the reason why Yue Fei was so angry was not because he was angry by Jia Xu, after all, although Yue Fei's political attributes were not high, he still had a sense of the overall situation, he just felt worthless for those sacrificed soldiers, so he wanted to get justice for his soldiers!

Of course, Yue Fei knew that Jia Xu was thinking about the overall situation, but his 8,000 people couldn't die in vain, so he also had this impeachment letter full of resentment.

However, Yue Fei also knew that Jia Xu was the uncle of the lord, so he didn't say anything about the requirements that made Qin Hao embarrassed by the traitor, and only mentioned at the end that Jia Xu would be 'severely punished'.

For Yue Fei's request, Qin Hao was also difficult to refuse, after all, Yue Fei's representative was the voice of the 60,000 troops in Xiangyang.

Jia Xu's commotion definitely delayed the fighter, but Jia Xu had just made great contributions to the retreat of the Yuzhou army, and it was certainly not appropriate to punish him heavily.

Therefore, Qin Hao finally fined Jia Xu for half a year, and the official was demoted by one level, which can be described as painless for Jia Xu, but it can be regarded as giving Yue Fei an explanation.

After talking about Yue Fei's letter, and then coming to Shuoyue Jia Xu's book, Jia Xu did not exonerate himself, nor did he impeach Yue Fei with a rake, but asked for a reward for Zhao Kuangyin.

After reading Jia Xu's book, Qin Hao's back was already covered with cold sweat, and he didn't expect that Wang Mang, who was forced out of the state by him, would do something at this critical moment of fighting against foreign races, and really said that Yuan Shu would attack Sizhou.

Qin Hao didn't know how to evaluate it, was Yuan Shu's brain too stupid, or Wang Mang's 'clever tongue' was too strong to reduce intelligence, in short, Yuan Shu could be said to have played a good hand of cards.

Yuan Shu took the initiative to provoke the war in a daze, and then the war between Qin and Yu developed in a strange direction.

Yuan Shu chose Zhao Kuangyin, the main general of Qin, but was forcibly forced to rebel by Jia Xu's book, and then the Yuzhou army, which took the initiative to provoke the war, sent an internal struggle to attack each other.

The Qin army not only won without a fight, but also took back Xuanyuan Pass, which had been negotiated many times during diplomatic negotiations but never returned, and also occupied the three southeastern counties of Runan.

Now Zhao Kuangyin has become the first prince to take the initiative to submit a letter to join in order to resist Yuan Shu, and it is naturally impossible for Qin Hao to refuse such a request.

After pondering for a long time, Qin Hao put pen to paper and wrote: "Qin Hao, the general of the hussars, please ask Your Majesty to quickly seal Zhao Kuangyin, the Marquis of Song, the prince of Song, and the pastor of Yuzhou, and order him to lead the troops to crusade against the rebellious Yuan Shu......"

Yuan Shu took the initiative to attack Sizhou at this time, and although he has now withdrawn his troops, this behavior is already tantamount to rebellion.

Qin Hao represents the Luoyang Imperial Court, and they have all been knocked to the door, if there is no reaction, then the imperial court will definitely lose its prestige in the future, let alone make the princes of the world submit.

Since Yuan Shu dared to take the initiative to provoke himself, then Qin Hao naturally didn't need to be polite, now that Zhao Kuangyin was still in a weak position in the confrontation with Yuan Shu, then Qin Hao would weaken Yuan Shu by supporting Zhao Kuangyin.

As the first prince to submit a letter to obedience, the court naturally can't be stingy with Zhao Kuangyin, otherwise what will the other princes think?

Qin Hao gave the Yuzhou pastor belonging to Yuan Shu to Zhao Kuangyin, which made Song and Yuan, who were not in the same place, have no possibility of mediation, unless one party completely falls.

As for the position of Duke of Song, to be honest, the current Zhao Kuangyin is not qualified to be crowned, but as long as he gets rid of Yuan Shu's rebellion for the imperial court, then he will naturally have the qualifications to be crowned.

After writing it, Qin Hao picked up the letter and checked it again, and after confirming that there were no typos, he couldn't help but sigh: "I don't know if helping Zhao Kuangyin at this time will create a big enemy in the future." ”

Although Qin Hao sent out a canonization edict that did not mean much to him, Zhao Kuangyin got not a simple canonization edict, but a great righteousness.

With this edict, in the confrontation with Yuan Shu, Zhao Kuangyin is righteous, on the other hand, Yuan Shu will become a rebel, and if he doesn't, then he is a traitor.

It is precisely because this edict is very important to Zhao Kuangyin, and even the key to competing with Yuan Shu for Yuzhou, that he is willing to exchange the nearly 100,000 people of the three counties.

In Qin Hao's heart, Zhao Kuangyin's threat is much greater than Yuan Shu's, don't look at Yuan Shu at this time, Yuan Shu still has an army of 200,000, plus Lian Po, one of the four famous generals of the Warring States, it seems that he has completely gained the upper hand, but the final result is still difficult to conclude.

Even if Yuan Shu wins in the end, the Yuzhou army will definitely be greatly injured, but if Zhao Kuangyin wins, there will be a difficult opponent in the Central Plains, and the difficulty of conquering the Central Plains will definitely increase in the future.

Qin Haoming knew this but still wanted to help Zhao Kuangyin, just because the imperial court at that time could not refuse the submission of any princes, and helping Zhao to resist Yuan could also weaken the comprehensive strength of Yuzhou to the greatest extent, and in the end, the price paid by Zhao Kuangyin was enough to exchange for the approval of the imperial court.

To sum up the above three points, Qin Hao had to help Zhao Kuangyin.

"That's it, it's still very early to conquer the Central Plains and face Zhao Kuangyin, and the top priority is to deal with the enemy Temujin in front of him first."

After Qin Hao entered the Hetao with 40,000 iron cavalry, he did not go to make peace with the main force of the Jin army, but stayed in Yinchuan County to garrison, and then Bai Qi's 100,000 troops and Long Ji's 10,000 light cavalry also stayed in Yinchuan County after entering the Hetao.

So far, Yinchuan County has a total of 150,000 regular troops, including 100,000 infantry soldiers and 50,000 cavalry.

The reason why Qin Hao did not leave Yinchuan County and went north to fight with the main army was mainly because the garrison of Yinchuan County was too weak, the regular army was simply pitiful, and nearly eighty percent of the garrison personnel were newly recruited from the people.

Since the 400,000 yuan Mongolian iron cavalry entered the Hetao, the Hetao of Pingchuan and Pingchuan can be said to be in an emergency on the whole line, and the Yuanmeng iron cavalry can gallop freely in the Hetao, and the Han army can only passively defend and block it at all.

When Qin Hao arrived in Yinshan County, three of the seven counties of Yinchuan had already fallen, (originally ten counties, but three counties were burned by Murong Ke), and under the protection of Qin Hao and the generals, the other four counties were finally spared.

It wasn't until Bai Qi's 110,000 army arrived that Qin Hao snatched back the other three counties one after another, completely driving Yuanmeng's forces out of Yinchuan County.
