Chapter 788: Dong Alliance (II)

Xun Yan's envoy Cao Cao returned in only ten days, and Cao Cao readily agreed to the request to set up the alliance in Yanzhou, with almost no twists and turns on the way.

After Cao Cao was dealt with, the alliance naturally became simpler, just notify the location of the alliance of the princes of all walks of life, and then everyone rushed there together.

At this time, the number of princes who had agreed to join the alliance had reached eighteen when they issued the documents to Qin Hao and promised to join the alliance, and this was definitely not the final number.

This time the Dong Alliance was destined to become a feast for the gathering of heroes, and just before he was about to lead the army to Yanzhou, Qin Hao's attention had to be on another matter.

"It's been more than half a month, if Wang Yue and Liu Bian had escaped the pursuit, they should have arrived in Nanyang long ago, but Liu Bian didn't come to join me, my brother-in-law, it seems that their target to the south is not me."

As soon as he thought of this, Qin Hao's eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of fierceness, Liu Bian was indeed dispensable to him, but he didn't want to see Liu Bian fall into the hands of other princes.

In the end, it was the person who had been the emperor, and Liu Bian's fall into the hands of the princes of either side would be a disaster for those who controlled the Son of Heaven.

In this campaign, in addition to occupying Sizhou, Qin Hao's second goal was to recapture Liu Xie.

Qin Hao wanted to replace Dong Zhuo to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and use this time to discuss the military exploits of the Dong princes, so as to reorganize and plan the forces of the world.

At this time, if Liu Bian is supported again, even if most of the princes will not agree with Liu Bian, they will definitely take away part of Liu Xie's popularity, which is also what Qin Hao does not want to see.

Although he knew that Liu Wei would hinder his plan, Qin Hao did not have the slightest way to deal with it.

As one of the three major commanders, Wang Yue has extremely strong reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance capabilities, if he is determined to avoid Qin Hao, even if all the intelligence officers under his command are dispatched, he may not be able to catch Wang Yue.

"Forget it, Liu Xie hasn't arrived yet, let's put Liu Yan's matter aside for now." Qin Hao said secretly in his heart.

For now, Qin Hao wants to recapture Liu Xie, who is far away in Chang'an, and the only way is to defeat Dong Zhuo and attack Chang'an, but Qin Hao knows that this is not realistic at all.

If the princes' alliance forces work together, they may be able to, but after the breakthrough of Luoyang, it will be the time when the coalition forces are divided, and most of the princes will disperse at that time.

Qin Hao wants to forcibly recapture Liu Xie, it is almost impossible in a short period of time, although it is not too hard, Qin Hao can come soft.

As the deepest hidden Tianzi No. 1 of Jinyiwei, it will be Qin Hao's biggest trump card for Dong this time, and the day Liu Xie arrives is when Tianzi No. 1 returns.

"Wang Yue, you really chose the Han family."

A trace of coldness flashed in Qin Hao's eyes, and he whispered to himself: "Although you are Mu'er's master, I will not be soft because of this." ”

Suddenly, Qin Hao seemed to remember something, his eyes also moved to the location of Ba County on the map, and said with a light smile: "I see, I actually forgot about Liu Bang, but Liu Bang is too safe in Yizhou, right?" ”

What Qin Hao didn't know was that it was not Liu Bang who was too peaceful, but that Yizhou also had a strong enemy.

Liu Bang has been developing in Ba County for several years, and his own strength is already very strong, but Chi You, who easily unified the various ethnic groups in the Southern Barbarians, is even stronger.

Liu Bang is only a county too defended, and most of Yizhou's troops are still in Liu Yan's hands, but Liu Yan and Chiyou have been defeated repeatedly after the battle.

When Liu Yan was invincible, he finally remembered Liu Bang's subordinate, but at this time, Chi You had already achieved the general trend, even Liu Bang was still not an opponent, and he had to work together with Liu Yan to barely compete.

Chi You dragged Liu Bang to Yizhou to death, so that Liu Bang could not spare any effort to expand externally, let alone defeat Liu Yan to unify Yizhou.

Otherwise, with Liu Bang's temperament, I am afraid that he would have kicked out Liu Yan a long time ago, monopolized Yizhou, and then marched into the Central Plains.

"The identity of Liu Bang's illegitimate son has not yet been exposed, so do you need Liu Ban to prove the orthodox identity for him?"

Qin Hao's eyes were full of thought, and then he shook his head and said to himself: "No, it's just an orthodox name, it is definitely difficult for Liu Bang, Liu Bang must have other calculations." ”

Although Qin Hao didn't know what Liu Bang was calculating, Liu Bang would not pose a threat to him in the short term, so Liu Bang and Liu Wei could let it go for the time being, after all, the most important thing for Qi Na Hou at present was to defeat Dong Zhuo.

This time, the main force of the Dong coalition army must attack the Tiger Prison Pass from the east, but Qin Hao's purpose is to base all the four counties of Sizhou, so the three passes of Yique, Xuanyuan and Guangcheng in the south of Sizhou must not be let go.

"Pass the order, order Bai Qi as the main general, Qin Wu as the deputy general, lead the army of 60,000 to be nailed to Guangcheng Pass, wait for the order of Ben Hou, ready to attack Guangcheng Pass at any time."

The three passes of Yique, Xuanyuan and Guangcheng are in a triangular trend to defend Sizhou, and if you want to attack Sizhou from Nanyang to the north, you must break two passes in a row.

Guangcheng Pass is the first checkpoint, only by breaking through Guangcheng can you attack Yique Pass, and Xuanyuan Pass is in the east and south direction of Yique Pass, and if you break through Xuanyuan Pass, you can also attack Yique Pass.

In terms of attacking cities and pulling out villages, no one in the Qin army can compare to Bai Qi, so it is safest for the commander of the Southern Route Army to hand it over to Bai Qi.

Qin Hao gave 60,000 out of the 120,000 elites to Bai Qi, and he himself was ready to lead another 60,000 troops to the alliance, including the 20,000 elite battalions that had been replenished, and another 40,000 veterans.

Except for Qin Hao, there will definitely be no one among the princes who will send an army of 60,000, not even the host Cao Cao, after all, they all need to leave enough troops to defend the other princes and ensure their own safety first.

In addition, the Jin army will also send troops to join the alliance, and Qin and Jin are originally one, which means that the Qin and Jin coalition forces are all under the command of Qin Hao.

Qin Hao will have the most troops among the princes, his own prestige is also the highest, and his identity is also the most suitable, so this time Qin Hao is bound to win the position of alliance leader.

The next day, the army took the oath.

Qin Hao stood on the tower, looking at Li Cunxiao, Jiang Song and other generals below, as well as the 60,000 troops standing behind them neatly arranged and motionless, his heart was full of pride, they were all his own soldiers.

"The 60,000-strong army has been assembled, and we can set off just waiting for the lord's order."

Qin Hao nodded, pulled out the Tianwen on his waist, and shouted at the sky: "If you don't break the Dong thief, you will not quit." ”

"Don't break the thief, swear not to quit the army......"

The 60,000-strong army stood up and roared, the sound was like the sea, earth-shattering, and the momentum of the army was like a rainbow.

"Let's go."

With Qin Hao's order, 60,000 Qin troops embarked on a journey, and this time their target was the overlord of the princes, Dong Zhuo.
