Chapter 117: Two Letters
There was clearly a strategy to defeat the enemy, but why did Qin Hao abandon it?
The reason is very simple. This plan requires extremely high military strength, and Qin Hao does not have enough troops. If he wants to implement it smoothly, he may have to wait until Qin Wen's main army comes back for reinforcements, and the last thing Qin Hao wants to see is his father Qin. Wen comes back.
In Qin Hao's view, with the combat power of Yanmen's main force and Xi Zhicai's resourcefulness, it is not too difficult at all to defeat the weak Yellow Turban Army of 100,000 people with a little effort.
If Qin Wen completely defeated the Yellow Turbans and Qin Hao was still unable to deal with the Xiongnu, in order to protect the safety of Yanmen, Qin Wen would definitely lead his army back to Yanmen Pass to aid.
Even if Qin Wen can defeat the Xiongnu after he returns, it will have nothing to do with Qin Hao. The only thing people will rush to recite and praise is his father Qin Wen's name.
Even if Qin Hao made a great contribution, the coach is not Qin Hao, and the system will not give Qin Hao any reward.
It is precisely because of this that Qin Hao did not want to defend the city. Instead, he wanted to take the initiative to defeat the enemy, and almost harshly asked Yue Fei to train 18,000 troops and horses within three days. The purpose was to buy time.
After this battle, Qin Hao will follow Qin Wen to suppress the Yellow Turban Rebellion. After staying with his father for a long time, Qin Hao may not have the opportunity to lead the army independently, so Qin Hao will never give up this opportunity.
Once Qin Hao can defeat the Xiongnu before Qin Wen returns to aid, Qin Hao's name will surely spread far and wide, and the increase in reputation will play an immeasurable role in realizing Qin Hao's ambitions!
It's just that Qin Hao underestimated the greed of people. The internal fighting between the Han Dynasties allowed Yuvluo to see an opportunity and actually dispatched most of the Xiongnu troops over at once. This also made Qin Hao's previous calculations come to nothing.
Now that he and the generals had no choice, Qin Hao could only place his hope on Wang Meng and Yue Fei in the rear.
I hope Wang Jinglue and Yue Pengju will not disappoint me, otherwise I will have no choice but to continue summoning! Qin Hao thought in his heart.
"Report."
In everyone's surprised eyes, a messenger walked in.
"Young Master, a letter from my lord!"
The messenger respectfully handed the letter with Qin Wen's orders to Qin Hao. Qin Hao opened it and quickly browsed it.
When the generals saw Qin Hao, their brows furrowed for a while, then relaxed, and their hearts clenched unconsciously.
"Five...Um, young master, does the letter from the master contain good news or bad news?" Qin Hu asked.
When Qin Hao heard this, the corner of his mouth stiffened and he smiled and said: "The main force was victorious. The military commander devised a counter-ambush strategy and set up three ambush points. All three battles were won."
Now the generals were even more confused. It was obviously good news, but why didn't the young master feel happy?
In fact, Qin Hao was not unhappy, but after Qin Wen's victory, the time left for Qin Hao was even longer, which made Qin Hao feel a little overwhelmed.
Man proposes, God disposes. If it doesn't work out, I'll just stick to it. Anyway, as long as I can guarantee the final victory, that's fine. I'm still young and there will be many opportunities in the future!
Qin Hao is also a free and easy person. He does not force himself too much. He still takes fame and wealth very lightly.
After communicating with each other, Qin Hao smiled lightly and said: "Now the main force of the Fangla tribe has been destroyed, and the remaining troops are less than five thousand. They are still surrounded by the father and are used as bait, waiting for Zhang Xianzhong's tribe to catch him. The father ordered us to hold Yanmen Pass for a month, one After a month, we will surely annihilate all the Yellow Turbans and return to Yanmen Pass to aid them."
When Qin Hu heard this, he immediately said happily: "It's not difficult to guard the gate for a month."
Guan Sheng, however, said with a face full of horror: "How can a literati, a theater strategist, be so powerful?"
"Among our army, I am afraid that the only one who can use a weak force to control the enemy's army that is several times larger than ours is the military advisor!" Qin Yong said sincerely in admiration.
"Is there something wrong?"
Just when everyone in the hall was immersed in joy, Qin Qiong stood up and asked: "With the combat power of our Yanmen main force, it is more than enough to annihilate Zhang Xianzhong's troops within ten days. Why does it take a month?"
At this time, the generals who were immersed in joy also realized the problem. Although they had full confidence in guarding Yanmen Pass, they still had to raise questions.
If something can obviously be solved in ten days, why does it have to take a month?
Qin Wen smiled indifferently and explained slowly: "Zhang Xianzhong's subordinates have a capable man named Li Dingguo, who saw through the military adviser's plan to encircle the point for reinforcements, so Zhang Xianzhong's 50,000-strong army did not enter our army's ambush point."
From Qin Wen's letter, Qin Hao finally knew who Zhang Xianzhong's two leaders were, namely Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo.
These two people are a traitor and a national hero. In short, they are both very capable.
He was able to see through the tactics of the military advisor. It seemed that the enemy army was not without capable people. He really underestimated the heroes of the world. All the generals thought this in their hearts.
"However, the military advisor has made adjustments in time and set up a chain plan again. This time it was calculated mentally but not intentionally. There shouldn't be any problems."
"Just in case, and because of the delay, the military advisor asked us to hold on for a month just to be on the safe side."
When the generals heard this, they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts. Fighting was originally a matter for warriors, but scholars like military advisors played a more important role than warriors like them. This really made them feel ashamed.
"Young Master, important information."
An ordinary-looking strong man hurriedly broke into the hall, ignored all the generals present, came directly to Qin Hao, and handed the letter in his hand to Qin Hao.
When he saw the visitor wearing black brocade clothes with the character "Xuan" embroidered on his left shoulder, Qin Hao couldn't help but change his face. The visitor was none other than Qin Hao's Jin Yi Wei Xuan character tribe.
After taking it, Qin Hao opened it and took a look. Just the first few words made Qin Hao's eyes freeze. After reading it, Qin Hao immediately ran out in a hurry.
Seeing this, Qin Yong shouted: "Young master, why are you going?"
"Go back to Guangwu. During my absence, Gao Shun will take charge of the defense of the city. Gao Shun will issue orders on my behalf."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Hao's back disappeared.
When the generals saw this, they looked at each other in confusion. They were all confused and had no idea what was happening. Gao Shun opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
With such a willful young master, what can Gao Shun say? In addition to being helpless, I am still helpless!
However, while Gao Shun was complaining about Qin Hao, he was also secretly guessing that the young master was not an ignorant person. What kind of news could the young master ignore the battle situation and run back to Guangwu directly?
There was naturally a reason why Qin Hao rushed back to Guangwu in such a hurry. The Jinyi Xuanzi Guards brought a very important news. A "great talent" appeared in Guangwu City.
Therefore, no matter whether he can be recruited in the end or not, Qin Hao must go back and meet him in person to show his sincerity. Otherwise, Qin Hao will regret it for the rest of his life if he passes by such a great talent. m.
