Chapter 1378: Take the Yellow River into the North Sea
Chapter 1378: Walking along the Yellow River into the North Sea
There are many strong people in Qingzhou.
Huang Chao includes: Xia Luqi, Wang Yanzhang, Zhu Tianpeng.
Yuan Shaoyou: Tantai reputation, Shajuan curtain, Yan Liang, Wen Chou;
Song Jiang also has: Lu Junyi.
However, Beihai only had Taishi Ci and was unable to protect itself.
Once it is known that Qin Hao is reaching out to Qingzhou, the princes will definitely do their best to stop it. Beihai is an enclave hanging outside, and the Qin army cannot provide any assistance at all. The pressure on the new Beihai governor will definitely not be strong.
Small.
In order to nail this nail in Beihai, this time Qin Hao not only sent his top commander Li Jing, second only to Bai Qi, but also the super general Ran Min, the god of war Jin Tai, as well as Qin Ming, Lin Chong, and Qin Huaiyu
Two generals assist.
A military god, a super god general, a war god, plus three good generals, I believe this configuration is enough to protect yourself.
The reason why two literati, Fu Nian and Fu Su, were sent there was naturally to ensure that there would be no trouble in the administration of Beihai. After all, Qin Hao did not know how well Kong Rong was managing Beihai.
Li Jing's main job after becoming the governor of Beihai must be to improve the combat effectiveness of the Beihai Navy. He definitely does not have the time and energy to manage internal affairs. However, Fu Nian, who is 90 in politics, and Fusu, who is 94 in politics, are enough to ensure the stability of the entire Beihai administration.
.
After finalizing all the candidates, Qin Hao immediately called Li Jing and asked him if he was willing to take on this important task and how he was going to protect Beihai when surrounded by wolves.
When he learned that his lord was going to entrust him with the important task of being the governor of Beihai, and also asked him to take his family with him, Li Jing was moved to tears. He knelt down and clasped his fists and said: "Thank you for your trust, lord, but this trend cannot last long, so I still let my wife."
Stay."
Of course Li Jing didn't want to be separated from his newlywed wife, but he also didn't want to embarrass his lord, so he would rather endure the pain of missing the couple for a long time. Isn't it just a few years of separation? They will naturally reunite after the unification of Hebei.
Qin Hao waved his hands indifferently and said with a smile: "It's just taking my wife to take office. It's not a big deal. There's nothing to be embarrassed about. That's it. General Li Jing, you'd better tell me how you plan to protect the Beihai."
.”
"This...will finally obey your orders."
After Li Jing hesitated for a while, he saw that his master seemed not to be embarrassed at all, so he agreed.
After thinking for a while, Li Jing replied: "Beihai County is now surrounded by wolves, and among the Qingzhou princes, Beihai is the weakest, so after arriving in Beihai and handing over to Lord Kong Rong, the general will prepare
Vigorously reorganize the army and first increase the combat effectiveness of the Northern Navy.
However, in this situation surrounded by enemies, it is still impossible to protect Beihai by simply improving the combat effectiveness of the army. Therefore, the final general is preparing to win over Liangshan Song Jiang and form an alliance with them to resist the stronger Yuan Shao and Huang Chao...
…”
Li Jing kept talking for more than ten minutes, but not a single sentence was nonsense. Every sentence was just the core. Qin Hao listened attentively and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: He is indeed a master of the art of war.
"It seems that General Li Jing has a clear mind about the situation in Qingzhou, so I can rest assured." Qin Hao said with a smile.
"But my lord, if the princes of Qingzhou learn that our army has entered Beihai, they will definitely try their best to obstruct it and even send troops. Before the general's plan is fully implemented, it may be difficult to stop these princes with the power of Beihai alone.
"Li Jing said worriedly.
After winning the Battle of Hetao and signing the Treaty of Jinyang, the Qin army has become the well-deserved overlord of the princes. However, the reason why the princes of the world did not unite was that, first, they could not find an excuse, second, their own affairs had not been resolved, and third,
The Qin army did not offend them. Fourth, the Qin army's strength has not yet been restored.
Now if Qin Hao enters the world and reaches out to Qingzhou, other princes may not say anything, but the princes of Qingzhou will definitely feel threatened, and in order to protect themselves, they will definitely unite to squeeze out the Qin army.
Therefore, after Li Jing became the governor of Beihai, the most difficult period was the first few months. As long as he got through the first period, it would be much easier after that.
"General Li Jing, the military advisor and gentlemen have also expected this point you mentioned, so this time we will send three thousand elite cavalry from the Huben Camp to take office with you."
"Three thousand fine knights?"
A hint of surprise flashed through Li Jing's eyes. Although the three thousand elite cavalry were not many, it still depended on who the opponent was.
If the cavalry of the Yuan, Meng, Manchu and Qing Dynasties had fought, even if all three thousand fine cavalry were smashed in, they probably wouldn't be able to hit a single wave.
But if it were the Qingzhou princes, the Qin army's three thousand elite cavalry would be enough to confront their ten thousand cavalry head-on.
As far as Lin knew, the total cavalry of all the princes in Qingzhou did not amount to fifteen thousand, so the role of these three thousand fine cavalry was also great.
"With Huben Camp here, the general will be able to survive the initial exclusion stage, but my lord, how will the general bring Huben Camp over?
Bingzhou is thousands of miles away from Qingzhou. Whether you are walking from Hebei or the Central Plains, you have to pass through more than one prince. Will they watch the general take over Beihai? What's more, some princes are still at war?
Could it be..."
As he spoke, a glimmer of light flashed in Li Jing's eyes, and he asked in surprise: "Could it be by water?"
A trace of surprise flashed in Qin Hao's eyes. It's easy to talk to smart people. As long as you make a point, he can draw inferences and you don't need to explain too much at all.
"That's right, just take the water route.
After defeating Wang Mang, our army captured a large number of warships. Considering that the navy would be used in the future campaign in Hebei, I ordered the formation of the Yellow River Navy at Mengjin Ferry. Although the current scale is not large, it can transport three thousand
The cavalry is still fine." Qin Hao Xiaozhe said.
The navy is a major weakness of the Qin army. Although there are many river systems in the north of Jingzhou, the navy is a big money-sucking force that is inferior to the cavalry. The Qin army has never reached the north of the Yangtze River in Jingzhou, so naturally there is no
Form a large-scale navy army.
After the Battle of Sizhou, Qin Hao forced Wang Mang to Bingnan, and then Huo Qubing seized all the ships, so the Qin army still had a lot of ships, but most of them were civilian ships, which could only be used for transportation and could not
Just use it as a warship.
Although Qin Hao has the blueprints for building a 'Ming Ship', warships cannot be built in a day or two, and sailors cannot be trained in a short time, so the development of the Qin Army's navy still has a long way to go.
And it’s a long way to go.
"If we take the water route, we can naturally avoid all the princes."
A glint flashed in Li Jing's eyes, and he said excitedly: "Lord, since our navy has the ability to transport soldiers to Qingzhou, it can transport more equipment to Beihai. With these equipment, the general will be able to transport soldiers to Beihai."
