Chapter 35 Internal and external troubles

Chapter 34: Internal and external troubles

Yuelai Inn, the largest inn in Guangwu City, can accommodate up to several hundred people.

 In a certain guest room in the inn, Dongfang Sheng, who had appeared in front of Qin Hao just now, was sitting at the table, drinking tea leisurely.

In front of her, a burly man was pacing back and forth, looking anxious. He was Fang Jie, the younger brother of the Yellow Turban Commander Fang La, who was known as the second best player in the Yellow Turban Army after Xiang Yu.

"Miss, you just dangled in front of that Qin Hao without even showing your face. Can that kid guess it? It would be terrible if Yanmen Pass is captured by the Huns. How about you go there again? Fang Jie said anxiously.

Dongfang Sheng gently put down the teacup in his hand, a smile flashed across his beautiful face, and he said lightly:

"Don't worry, others may not be able to guess it, but Qin Hao can definitely guess it. Yanmen Pass is one of the most important passes in the world, with 10,000 defenders, which is enough to support Qin Wen and lead his army to return reinforcements. Don't worry."

“I hope so, Miss, what do you think the eldest brother actually wants to borrow the power of the Huns? This is not seeking the skin of a tiger, you are confused!”

As a Han and a warrior, Fang Jie strongly disagrees with his elder brother Fang La's behavior this time. We Han people will solve the Han people's affairs ourselves. The victory or defeat depends on our ability. What's the point of borrowing the strength of a foreign race? Even if you can conquer the world in the future, you will still be criticized by others.

Yanmen Pass is related to the stability of the entire northern Xinjiang, and it was rebuilt with great difficulty. During the reconstruction process, the Xiongnu and Yanmen Army were already in a desperate situation. Once Yanmen Pass is broken, it will definitely become a **** on earth, and then their brothers will really A sinner through the ages.

"Although I don't agree with Senior Brother Fang's move, there is nothing we can do about it. The combat strength of Senior Brother Fang's troops is already among the best among our million-strong Yellow Turban army, but who would have thought that they would be overwhelmed by Qin Wen's 30,000-strong army? Fight, let alone capture Dai County, it is possible that the entire army will be annihilated. This is a desperate move," Dongfang Sheng said helplessly. Qin Wen can only blame him for being too good at fighting.

This time Qin Wen sent out troops with all the best troops and generals. Fifteen thousand of the thirty thousand elites were cavalry. After two days of traveling, they immediately entered the battle and caught the Yellow Turban Army by surprise. Moreover, the Yanmen Army took advantage of the cavalry to join forces. Defeat the Yellow Turban for several battles.

At present, the Yellow Turban Army has lost nearly 20,000 troops, and the Yanmen Army has suffered less than 2,000 casualties. If the battle continues like this, even if the Yellow Turban Army is wiped out, the Yanmen Army will not suffer much damage.

Fang La was also desperate. If he didn't use the power of the Xiongnu to force Qin Wen to retreat, the Yellow Turbans would not be able to stop the Yanmen cavalry. Moreover, with the fifteen thousand cavalry, he would not be able to retreat even if he was defeated. If you bite that, it will be a situation where the entire army will be annihilated, so this is the last resort.

However, Fang La did not want the Xiongnu to take Yanmen Pass. The Xiongnu were the enemy of the Han army and the enemy of the Yellow Turbans, so he asked the two men to pretend to join forces with the Xiongnu on behalf of the Yellow Turban Army, and at the same time secretly conveyed the news of the Xiongnu attack to Qin Hao. .

Fang La is not afraid that Qin Wen will not return aid. After all, Yanmen Pass is more important than Daijun. When Qin Wen can return to Yanmenguan to aid, he will have been under Daijun by then. With the city defense, he will not be afraid of Qin Wen's cavalry. Of course, if there is It would be better to set up an ambush on Qin Wen's way back to help.

"This Qin Wen is really powerful. Not only did he defeat the Qiang Xiongnu, he was also a good hand in governing the local area. I heard that he was a good official who loved the people like his own son. If he can be used by our Yellow Turban Army, I believe he can overthrow the Han Dynasty. Obstacles will be much easier!”

Although he is on the hostile side, Fang Jie is not disgusted with Qin Wen at all, and would like to recruit Qin Wen to join him if possible!

"That's impossible. We, the Yellow Turbans, have been standing on the opposite side of the world's aristocratic families since we started our army. Although we haven't taken action against those aristocratic families yet, it will be a matter of time. Qin Wen is not only from a noble family, but he is also the head of five major business families. He is a die-hard member of the Han Dynasty and is destined not to defect to our Yellow Turban Army," Dongfang Sheng said calmly.

"That's right. Hey, it's such a pity that such a hero is loyal to the faint king. Forget it, if he is not used by my Yellow Turban, then he will be killed by my Yellow Turban." Fang Jie said with great regret.

If Qin Hao heard what Fang Jie said, he would definitely give his father a thumbs up. He is really good at pretending. It seems that the name of a loyal minister has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

 …

The meeting hall of the Prefect's Mansion in Guangwucheng, Yanmen County.

Qin Wen brought most of the army and generals out this time, while all the civilian officials stayed behind. After realizing that the Xiongnu might attack, Qin Hao went home and briefly explained to his mother Jia Yu, and immediately took over Guangwu City in Qin Wen's name. All the remaining civil servants gathered together to discuss countermeasures.

 Qin Hao has no official position, and it is far from enough to control the major officials just by being a young master, so he can only rely on pretending to pass on his father's orders and stabilize the officials first.

Although some of the officials saw it, there was no evidence. In addition, Qin Hao was Qin Wen’s only son, so it was hard to say anything. Just let Qin Hao mess around for now, and your father will wipe your **** when the time comes.

However, when they heard Qin Hao's inference, everyone became uneasy.

"If it is true as the young master said, the Xiongnu will probably not miss this opportunity. They are not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. It is better to be careful." Haotong, the county magistrate, said cautiously.

Haotong, the county magistrate, is a talent that has never appeared in the history books. He was born in a poor family and studied hard for ten years. He has talents in his heart and is a good hand in governing the local area. Because of his tough personality, he was disliked by the previous prefect, so he has been serving in Guangwu County. petty official.

After Qin Wen moved the county seat to Guangwu, he found that he really had great talents, so he reused him. Hao Tong was also loyal to Qin Wen, so he was eventually promoted to Yanmen County Magistrate bit by bit based on his merit and loyalty.

As Qin Wen's right-hand man, Hao Tong knew how easy it was for Yanmen to develop over the years, so he did not seek to treacherous enemies or make achievements, but he was satisfied if his lord Qin Wen could protect Yanmen Pass, so he was so cautious.

"Sir, there is one thing I don't understand. Ten thousand defenders are more than enough to defend Yanmen Pass. How could the Xiongnu have the confidence to be so sure that they can capture Yanmen Pass?" Hao Tong asked doubtfully.

“I’m afraid there are Huns spies in Yanmen Pass!” Qin Hao said lightly.

 “What?” Hao Tong’s expression suddenly changed when he heard this, and the expressions of other officials also changed drastically. In order to vigorously develop the economy and people's livelihood in recent years, Yanmen has done business with major tribes in the grasslands. Therefore, it is inevitable that Huns spies will sneak in. All Yanmen officials are well aware that this must be sacrificed for development.

Yanmen Pass is the lifeline of Yanmen. After the reconstruction, there are no permanent residents. If the Huns spies sneak in, it can no longer be described as dereliction of duty. There are definitely traitors.

There is something in Qin Hao's words. On the surface, he is saying that there are spies at Yanmen Pass. However, Yanmen Pass is so tightly defended that it can be infiltrated by the Huns. So what about all of you present?

Hao Tong's cold eyes glanced at the major officials, and the meaning was self-evident. The officials also understood that this call was called a meeting, but in fact it was to imprison everyone.

For the safety of Yanmen, they can still bear this grievance. As for the outcome of the people who really have problems, they are not considering it.

At this time, Gao Shun, who was wearing heavy armor, strode into the hall. When he saw Qin Hao, he immediately saluted and said: "Young Master is really good at predicting things. We have captured all three thousand Hu merchants, and five hundred of them resisted. We have all been killed, and it has been made clear that the enemy leader cannot survive the torture. Yuvluo will raid Yanmen Pass today, and the internal response will be."

 “Who is it?” Qin Hao shouted.

 “Wang family.”

Qin Hao finally understood why Gao Shun hesitated. In order for the Qin family to successfully enter Yanmen, Qin Wen had to make appropriate compromises with the local aristocratic families. Now, although these aristocratic families have taken advantage of Qin Wen's development of Yanmen, they have become several times stronger than before. , but lost its core power, which was unacceptable to the family.

The Wang family was originally the largest family in Bingzhou. Before Qin Wen took control of Yanmen, the Wang family had a thousand clan soldiers. After Qin Wen took control of Yanmen, he implemented a series of policies. Although the Wang family made a lot of profits, they were completely destroyed. If Yanmen is separated from the core of power, the losses will be even greater.

But even so, the Wang family still has extraordinary influence in Yanmen, and there are people from the Wang family present.

Hao Tong seemed to have thought of something and immediately shouted: "Isn't Wang Hui, the deputy general of Colonel Wu Ling who is responsible for guarding Yanmen Pass, a member of the Wang family?"

Qin Hao's expression suddenly changed when he heard this, "What? No, Yanmen is in danger! Mr. Hao, how many cavalry are there in Guangwu?"

“The lord has taken out all the cavalry, and now there are only a hundred cavalry left in the city.” Hao Tong frowned.

“That’s enough, Brother Gao, I will take the first step with a hundred cavalry, and you will lead the camp and follow after you!”

 “What about the Wang family?”

“Let’s protect Yanmen Pass first, Mr. Hao. I’ll leave the rest to you. Qin Hao believes you can handle it well.”

"Don't worry, young master, Hao Tong will keep this inheritance for the Lord to repay the Lord for his kindness."

Qin Hao nodded, and then strode out the door. After watching Qin Hao leave, Hao Tong looked at the officials coldly and said lightly: "No one is allowed to leave this hall before a thorough investigation is completed, otherwise there will be no need to leave." Blame me for not caring about my colleagues, huh!"

After putting on his battle armor and ordering his troops and horses, Qin Hao led a hundred cavalry and rushed towards Yanmen Pass. As soon as he left the city gate, he saw a female general wearing silver armor and holding a spear blocking the road.

“Sister, why are you here?” Qin Hao asked.

The person who came was none other than Qin Wen’s eldest daughter and Qin Hao’s sister Qin Liangyu.

Qin Liangyu is now eighteen years old. She is considered an old girl in this era, but she is still unmarried.

As the eldest daughter of the prefect, Qin Liangyu naturally has no shortage of followers, but Qin Liangyu's vision is too high, and no one in Yanmen can fall into Qin Liangyu's eyes, so she has not married until now.

 Qin Liangyu is not in a hurry, but his mother Jia Yu is. In order to reassure her daughter, Jia Yu does not allow Qin Liangyu to go to the battlefield again. Even Qin Wen's persuasion is useless, so Qin Liangyu does not go out with Qin Wen this time.

"When such a big thing happens, as the daughter of Qin's eldest daughter, how can I sit back and ignore it, so I'm here to help my brother." Qin Liangyu said in a cold voice with murderous eyes.

Hearing this, Qin Wen nodded slightly, and the group of people quickly ran north.
