Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 791

Chapter 789: The Jujube Alliance

Yanzhou, Chenliu County, Suanzao County.

Suanzao County is located in the westernmost part of Chenliu. It is a transportation hub connecting the two states, and it is also the closest county to Hulaoguan, so this time it was arranged by Cao Cao as the meeting place of the princes.

When the Daming Empire occupied Yanzhou, Suanzao had been dilapidated into a poor county with a population of several thousand. However, because the geographical location of Suanzao was too important, Daming not only strengthened the defense of the city wall, but also sent heavy troops to guard it. After the Ming Dynasty, Li Bai, the elder brother of Li Qingzhao, came to govern in person.

During Li Bai's tenure in Suanzao, he almost eliminated all the ills of Suanzao, and he finally gave Suanzao a cure after sleeping at night. He absorbed tens of thousands of refugees within a year, and completely got rid of the name of a poor county.

After the decisive battle between Han and Ming Dynasty broke out, Suanzao County bore the brunt of the battle. Li Shimin and Xiang Yu fought in this battle several times, and the Suanzao, who had finally recovered his vitality, was once again destroyed in the war.

In the battle of Han Ming, Han won, and Zun Ming fled into Sanshan.

After Cao Cao was appointed as the shepherd of Yanzhou, he also attached great importance to the important position of Suanzao, and sent general Cao Ren to guard it again. After Cao Cao's resources were tilted, Suanzao finally recovered its vitality.

This time the princes from all walks of life gathered together, and the coalition troops numbered hundreds of thousands of troops. Naturally, it was impossible for all of them to pour into a small county of Suanzao.

In order to receive the princes from all walks of life, Cao Cao sent Xun You to make arrangements early, and the company built outside Suanzao County was even enough to accommodate 50 troops.

After Qin Hao's army arrived at Suanzao, he realized that he was the first prince to arrive. Even Cao Cao, the host, was still dispatching troops and horses in Chenliu.

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

Because of the marriage between Qin Wen and Cao Cao, the relationship between the Qin and Cao families has also become very good, and the exchanges between the forces are also the most.

Qin Hao knew Cao Ren before, and when he saw the person, he immediately greeted him with a smile: "General Cao Ren, long time no see."

"The last time I saw Qin Hou, it was Lord Hou who killed Xiang Yu's traitor at the mouth of the Yangtze River. Seeing Qin Hou today is even better than before." Cao Ren said with a smile.

Qin Hao smiled indifferently and said: "Don't be a Hou Ye, it's too natural. 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 considered to be Hao's elder, so Just call me directly."

"This……"

Cao Ren was a little hesitant, seeing that Qin Hao's expression was not polite, so he agreed.

"Okay, Zixu."

"That's right."

Qin Hao smiled and then asked, "Marquis Wei, no, it's my third uncle Cao, how long will it take to reach Suanzao?"

"Meng De has gathered the army and will arrive in three days."

"I wonder how many troops the third uncle will dispatch this time?"

"The small people in Yanzhou are poor, and they have been severely harmed by Ming thieves. So far, they have not been able to recover. Therefore, Meng De can only mobilize [-] troops at most this time."

Qin Hao nodded unconsciously when he heard the words. What Cao Ren said was indeed the truth, and Yanzhou was not owned by Cao Cao alone. Apart from the troops stationed in various places, the [-]-strong army was almost the limit of Cao Cao.

Three days later, Cao Cao led an army of [-] to Suanzao, and the strength of the Suanzao camp reached [-].

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

When Qin Hao accompanied Cao Cao to inspect the Qin army, Cao Cao immediately cast an envious look at Qin Hao when he saw that the Qin army's armor was shining brightly, and the swords and swords were sharpened, which were many times better than the weapons of his own army.

"Nephew Zixu, I really envy you. Nanyang County alone 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 can he build so many sophisticated equipment.

Qin Hao smiled lightly and said modestly: "The main thing is that Nanyang County has a good foundation. Anyone who serves as the prefect of Nanyang will not be bad."

Cao Cao obviously didn't believe it, and said, "My dear nephew, don't fool me. Although Nanyang used to be the largest county in my Han Dynasty, it couldn't support so many elites before, and the tax revenue is far worse than it is now."

"Actually it's nothing. Over the past few years, my little nephew has been vigorously rectifying Nanyang's internal affairs and encouraging commercial development. Oh, by the way, this time, in order to deal with Dong Zhuo, my little nephew smashed the pot and sold iron to gather the equipment of a large army. Woolen cloth."

Seeing that Qin Hao not only didn't take the bait, but was also poor with himself, Cao Cao couldn't help sighing in his heart that Qin Hao and Qin Wen's father and son were really nothing alike.

Since Cao Cao formed a friendship with Qin Wen, he has gained a lot from Qin Wen.

Not to mention anything else, let's just say that the three thousand tigers and leopards rode the war horses, but Cao Cao bought them half-buy and half-free from the Jin army at the lowest price of favor.

War horses are priceless in the Central Plains. Cao Cao's ability to form such an elite cavalry depends entirely on his relationship with Qin Wen.

Cao Cao is also addicted to taking advantage. After seeing Qin Jun's equipment, he wanted to buy some equipment cheaply by holding Qin Hao, but Qin Hao pretended to be confused. Not to the next mouth.

After the two chatted for a while, Qin Hao wasn't in the mood to play Tai Chi with Cao Cao, so he said straight to the point: "Third uncle, my little nephew hopes to join the alliance this time. You can support my little nephew as the leader of the alliance."

Cao Cao looked surprised and asked, "Brother, can't he come?"

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

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

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

After hearing Cao Cao's question, Qin Hao flashed a trace of sadness in his eyes, lowered his head and said solemnly: "Father commander fell ill in the battle of Hetao, and will not be able to lead the army in the future, and this time, the leader of the Jin army came here. It's the fourth uncle."

"It turned out to be brother Qin Jian!"

Cao Cao looked disappointed and sighed: "Second brother Sun will also come to the alliance this time. I wanted to take this opportunity. Our three brothers have a good time again. It seems impossible now, what a pity."

　There is still a little transition before the war will officially start. After all, in such a big battle, everything must be explained clearly, so that it will not look empty and will be more exciting.
