Chapter 789: Sour Jujube Alliance (I)

Chapter 789: Sour Jujube Alliance (I)

Yanzhou, Chenliu County, Suozao County.

Suozao County is located in the westernmost part of Chenliu, which is the transportation hub of Siyan and Yanzhou, and is also the closest county seat to Hugao Pass, so this time it was arranged by Cao Cao as the place of the princes' alliance.

When the Ming Empire occupied Yanzhou, the sour jujube had been dilapidated into a small impoverished county with thousands of people, but because the geographical location of the sour jujube was too important, the Ming Dynasty not only strengthened the defense of the city wall, but also sent heavy troops to garrison, and then sent Li Bai, the brother of Li Qingzhao, the queen of the Ming Dynasty, to govern in person.

During Li Bai's tenure in sour jujube, he almost eliminated all the ills of sour jujube, and finally let sour jujube be be cured after sleeping at night, and absorbed tens of thousands of displaced people within a year, completely getting rid of the name of a poor county.

After the outbreak of the decisive battle of Hanming, Suzao County bore the brunt, and Li Shimin and Xiang Yu fought this battle several times, which also made the sour jujube, which had finally recovered its vitality, destroyed in the war again.

In the battle of Han Ming, Han Sheng, and Remnant Ming fled into the Three Mountains.

After Cao Cao was appointed as the pastor of Yanzhou, he also attached great importance to the important position of the sour jujube, and sent the general Cao Ren to guard it again, and after Cao Cao's resources were tilted, the sour jujube finally gradually recovered.

This time, the princes from all walks of life gathered, and the coalition army had hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, so it was naturally impossible for them all to pour into a small county in Suojube.

In order to receive princes from all walks of life, Cao Cao sent Xun You early to make arrangements, and the company camp built outside Suozao County was even enough to accommodate 500,000 troops.

After Qin Hao's army arrived at the sour date, he found that he was the first prince to arrive, and even Cao Cao, the host, was still in Chen to dispatch troops and horses, and it was estimated that there would be a little time before he arrived at the sour date.

The person in charge of receiving Qin Hao this time was Cao Ren, the general of the Cao Army.

Because of the alliance between Qin Wen and Cao Cao, the relationship between Qin and Cao became very good, and the exchanges between the forces were also the most, and gradually Yanzhou became the main commercial export area of Nanyang.

Qin Hao had known Cao Ren before, and when he saw the visitor, he immediately greeted him with a smile: "General Cao Ren, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

"The last time I saw Qin Hou, it was Hou Ye who stabbed Xiang Yu's traitor at the mouth of the Yangtze River, and today I see Qin Hou's demeanor even better than in the past." Cao Ren said with a smile.

Qin Hao smiled indifferently and said, "Don't be a marquis, it's too angry." Hao's wife, Xiahou Qingyi, is a member of the Xiahou family, and the Xiahou family and the Cao family are close relatives, and the general is also Hao's elder, so just call me the word "cousin". ”

"This ......"

Cao Ren hesitated slightly, seeing that Qin Hao's demeanor was not polite, so he agreed to it.

"Okay, Zixu."

"That's right."

Qin Hao smiled, and then asked, "Wei Hou, no, it's my Third Uncle Cao, how long will it take to arrive at the sour jujube?" ”

"Meng De has gathered his army, and he will be able to arrive in three days."

"I don't know how many troops the third uncle will send this time?"

"The small people in Yanzhou are poor, and they have been harmed by the thieves a lot, so they have not been able to recover so far, so Meng De can only mobilize a maximum of 30,000 troops this time."

Qin Hao nodded unconsciously when he heard this, what Cao Ren said was indeed the truth, and Yanzhou was not Cao Cao's alone, excluding the troops stationed in various places, 30,000 troops were almost Cao Cao's limit.

Three days later, Cao Cao led an army of 30,000 to Suojube, and the strength of the Suozao camp also reached 90,000.

Accompanied by Cao Cao, Qin Hao briefly inspected Cao Cao's 30,000 army and found that although Cao's equipment was not as sophisticated as the Qin army, it was not inferior to the Qin army in terms of training.

When Qin Hao accompanied Cao Cao to inspect the Qin army, Cao Cao saw that the Qin army's battle armor was shining brightly, and the sword was sharpened, and it was many times better than his own army's weapons, so he immediately cast envious eyes at Qin Hao.

"Zixu Xian's nephew, I really envy you, only one county in Nanyang can support such an elite army, it seems that you have really put a lot of effort into the governance of Nanyang."

Cao Cao's implication is that Nanyang is really rich, otherwise how could he build so much sophisticated equipment.

Qin Hao smiled indifferently and said modestly: "The main thing is that Nanyang County has a good foundation, and whoever serves as the Taishou of Nanyang will not be bad." ”

Cao Cao obviously didn't believe it, and said: "Virtuous nephew, don't you want to be Mengwu, although Nanyang used to be the largest county of my Han Dynasty, it couldn't afford to raise so many elites before, and the tax revenue was far worse than now." ”

"Actually, it's nothing, the little nephew has vigorously rectified Nanyang's internal affairs and encouraged commercial development over the years. Oh yes, this time, in order to deal with Dong Zhuo, the little nephew smashed the pot and sold iron to gather the equipment of a large army, and he will be disarmed after retiring from the army. ”

Seeing that Qin Hao not only didn't take the bait, but was also miserable with himself, Cao Cao couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Qin Hao and Qin Wen's father and son were really not like each other at all.

Since Cao Cao married Qin Wen, he has taken a lot of benefits from Qin Wen.

Let's not mention anything else for the time being, let's just say that the three thousand tigers and leopards rode the war horses, but Cao Cao bought them half at the lowest price in the hands of the Jin army.

War horses are priceless in the Central Plains, and Cao Cao can form such an elite cavalry, all because of the relationship with Qin Wen.

Cao Cao is also addicted to taking advantage of it, after seeing Qin Jun's equipment, he wanted to buy some equipment cheaply by holding Qin Hao, but Qin Hao pretended to be confused, it was simply a seamless egg, so that Cao Cao couldn't find a place to eat.

After the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Qin Hao was not in the mood to play Tai Chi with Cao Cao, and went straight to the point: "Third uncle, the little nephew hopes that this time the alliance will be the alliance, and you can support the little nephew as the leader of the alliance." ”

Cao Cao showed surprise and asked, "Isn't he coming, big brother?" ”

The eldest brother in Cao Cao's mouth is naturally Qin Wen, and if Qin Wen also comes to the alliance, there is almost no suspense about the position of the leader of the alliance.

Qin Wen is almost the only remaining general of the Han Dynasty today, and he is more than enough in terms of prestige and governance, so absolutely no one dares to compete with Qin Wen for this alliance leader, but Qin Hao is different.

Although among the princes, Qin Hao's military exploits are the most prominent, after all, he is still too young, and there will definitely be some people who oppose Qin Hao as the leader of the alliance under the pretext of second, so Qin Hao came to find Cao Cao's support just in case.

After hearing Cao Cao's question, a trace of sadness flashed in Qin Hao's eyes, and he lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "My father fell ill in the Battle of Hetao, and he will not be able to fight in the army in the future, and this time it is the fourth uncle who came to represent the leader of the Jin army." ”

"It turned out to be Brother Qin!"

Cao Cao looked disappointed and sighed: "This time, Second Brother Sun will also come to the alliance, I wanted to take this opportunity to drink and talk to our three brothers again, but now it seems that it is impossible, what a pity." ”
