Chapter 69: White worries

Fortunately, Xun You happened to be near the city gate, and in the end, this confrontation did not turn into a major event.

Although Qin Hua had the heart to reward these soldiers who loved him, he was not allowed to stay longer now, so he hurriedly rushed towards the state pastor mansion with Xun You.

"Gather all the civil and military forces near Wuwei City, and discuss important matters."

After Qin Hua issued this order, he went to the backyard, after all, he couldn't see his subordinates in his current appearance.

Came to Cui'er's yard with ease, Qin Hua has been taken care of by Cui'er, even after being accepted as a side room, Cui'er is also the closest woman to Qin Hua.

After freshening up in Cui'er's yard, Qin Hua once again became the appearance of the famous Liangzhou Mu, but there was a little more tiredness in his expression.

"I wonder what the Lord has summoned us for?"

Jia Xu didn't know why, so he took the lead in asking.

"Dong Zhuo's army may already be on the way to Liangzhou, everyone needs to prepare as soon as possible."

As soon as Qin Hua's words were finished, there was a burst of discussion below.

"Quiet."

Before Qin Hua could speak, Jia Xu motioned for everyone to be quiet. The person who originally just wanted to be alone now has the appearance of the head of Wencheng.

Jia Xu didn't understand what was going on, he and Qin Hua had already discussed the plan to deal with Dong Zhuo, it shouldn't be like this, although Liangzhou was not as strong as Dong Zhuo, but it was not something he could attack easily, wasn't Dong Zhuo afraid that the Kwantung princes would attack him again?

"We'll talk about that later."

Now is not the time to explain, Qin Hua began to issue combat orders.

"Gao Shun."

"The end will be."

Gao Shun immediately got up to receive the order.

"I order you to reorganize the army near Wuwei County and be ready to set off at any time."

"The last general commands."

After speaking, Qin Hua looked at Xun You and continued: "Xun You, I order you to step up preparations for military resources, this war may be a protracted war, and I order you to prepare at least 50,000 people for a year's grain and grass." ”

"Yes."

Then Qin Hua gave an order to Liang Xing and the others, ordering them to go to various places to prepare the defenders in various places, Qin Hua originally didn't want to use these city defense troops with low combat power, but now there is no way.

Even the border troops, Qin Hua mobilized half of them to participate in the battle.

He also issued an order to Qingyangcheng, and Mingma played to raise troops among the Qiang people as a reserve combat force in Liangzhou; At the same time, Beigong Boyu was ordered to stop attacking the Qiang tribe and take the army back to Qingyang City to standby.

After everyone left, Jia Xu asked Qin Hua again what happened, so Qin Hua told Jia Xu what happened in Luoyang City one by one, of course, he deliberately skipped Dong Bai's matter.

"A general surnamed Dong?"

Jia Xu touched his little beard and thought about it.

"Is the lord too worried, as far as I know, Dong Zhuo does not have an adult son, and there is no one among his close relatives as described by the lord, it should be just a coincidence."

"Maybe it's true as Wenhe said, but I've fled from Chang'an rashly now, think about it, even if that person doesn't matter, Dong Zhuo also has the intention to kill me, I just said that if I encountered an assassination in Luoyang City, even if it has nothing to do with Dong Zhuo, it also means that there must be someone under Dong Zhuo's command who wants to be unfavorable to me. Now that this happens, they will inevitably trick Dong Zhuo into starting a war against me. ”

"Okay, then gather the army first and prepare for war, but the lord must not take the initiative to attack, and there is no report from the Nighthawk yet."

"Well, let them garrison Tianshui in the name of repair, nominally to support Zhang Liao's army. By the way, I also have to tell Zhang Liao to stop the attack on Hanzhong and wait for the development of things. ”

Half a month passed quickly, and neither the spies of the army nor the eyes of the nighthawk came with the news that Dong Zhuo was ready to send troops to Liangzhou.

And Qin Hua's army is almost assembled, not counting the Qiang troops in Qingyang City, Qin Hua's army stationed in Tianshui has exceeded the scale of 80,000 people.

Once a war breaks out, the 30,000 troops under Zhang Liao can also quickly join, and if Dong Zhuo has too many troops, Qin Hua is also ready to let the tens of thousands of Qiang troops enter everyone's sight.

Since Qin Hua was only nominally establishing a trade relationship with the Qingyang Alliance, the princes of the Central Plains did not know that this army in Qingyang City was under the jurisdiction of Qin Hua.

In total, there is an army of about 150,000 people, which is all of Qin Hua's current family background.

Even if Dong Zhuo has the Northern Army in hand, Qin Hua has the confidence to compete with him, but in this case, Liangzhou will inevitably suffer huge losses, even if Qin Hua can resist Dong Zhuo's attack and hold on until the Kwantung princes send troops to Chang'an, Qin Hua's hard work in the past few years is estimated to be ruined.

"I think it's better for us to take the initiative, we can't let Liangzhou be in the middle of the war, and the newly built facilities in various places are likely to be destroyed because of this war."

Qin Hua anxiously paced in the hall, he had been waiting for the news of Dong Zhuo's attack, but until now there was still no news, even his most trusted Nighthawk had no news.

"Don't be impatient, my lord."

Compared to that day when Qin Hua suddenly summoned his subordinates, Jia Xu looked much more leisurely today, and he didn't seem to be worried about Dong Zhuo coming to Liangzhou at all.

"Liangzhou is about to be burned by the flames of war, and our efforts over the years will be ruined, how can you let me be restless."

Seeing Jia Xu's appearance, Qin Hua couldn't help but get a little angry, this is a major event related to the survival of Liangzhou and the future struggle for world domination, but Jia Xu seems to be a nobody.

"Lord, listen to me, I don't think Dong Zhuo will come to Liangzhou."

"Won't come?"

"Well, as far as I know, there are nearly 300,000 troops under Dong Zhuo's command now, but because they have to be stationed in various parts of the division, there are less than 200,000 soldiers who can fight. Coupled with the fact that the Kwantung princes are eyeing each other, I think that even if Dong Zhuo thinks that the lord wants to rebel, he will not send troops to fight, because in that case, it is likely to turn into a second coalition crusade against Dong Zhuo. ”

Qin Hua patiently listened to Jia Xu's words, and his eyes suddenly lit up, Dong Zhuo should know about Liangzhou's 100,000 armor, plus the newly acquired several counties in the state, Dong Zhuo needs to carefully consider whether it is cost-effective before he wants to attack him.

"Then what if the person who wanted to assassinate me that day insisted on persuading Dong Zhuo to attack me?"

"I think that's even more impossible, does the lord have enemies in Chang'an?"

"I listen to Wen He's words, I have always been in Taoguang, and I am not an enemy."

"Then I think the reason why that person wants to assassinate the lord must be because he found out that the lord will be Dong Zhuo's great enemy in the future, and this person must also be a person of great wisdom, and he can see the current situation clearly, how can that person not see clearly. He thought that not only would he not persuade Dong Zhuo to attack Liangzhou, but would try his best to stop it. ”

"Yes." After listening to Jia Xu's words, Qin Hua suddenly became enlightened, and the clouds that had been in place for many days were swept away.

Seeing Qin Hua's appearance, Jia Xu smiled slightly, picked up the wine cup and took a sip, and continued to Qin Hua: "I think Dong Zhuo's envoy is estimated to be on the way, so the lord should think about how to properly solve this matter." ”

As soon as Jia Xu's words were finished, he heard someone outside report that it turned out to be Nighthawk's letter that had finally arrived.

Qin Hua opened the letter and looked at it, he couldn't help frowning, Jia Xu picked up the letter that Qin Hua threw on the table, looked at it for a while and said to Qin Hua: "The messenger sent by Dong Zhuo this time is named Dong Bai?" Who is this Dong Bai? ”
