Chapter 262 Strong generals gather at Hulao Pass

Chapter 261: Strong Generals Gather at Hulao Pass

Dong Zhuo made Hua Xiong the commander of the cavalry also to prevent Qin Hao from taking military power, but Qin Hao accepted it directly because he told Dong Zhuo that he was not interested in military power.

Dong Zhuo, who resisted the most, agreed to hand over the command of the cavalry. Liu Yu and Ding Yuan naturally would not disagree. After all, the unified command of the cavalry could indeed maximize the combat power.

"Then I would have sent Xuande to lead his cavalry to help my nephew." Liu Yu said with a smile.

"The old man sent Feng Xian to lead the cavalry to help my nephew, and it just so happened that you are familiar with each other."

Ding Yuan didn't know about Lv Bu stealing the credit, and Qin Hao didn't spread it to the outside world, so the outside world, including Ding Yuan, thought that the "bright and dark rise" was because of this credit.

Lu Bu had fought side by side with Qin Hao before, and he praised Qin Hao after returning, so Ding Yuan was relieved to let Lu Bu help Qin Hao.

Among the generals in the field, Qin Wen has the most experience in defending the city, and although Qin Hao's experience in cavalry operations is not the most abundant, the "Battle of Yanmen Pass" is indeed too amazing, so naturally no one doubts Qi Qinhao's experience. Commanding ability, not to mention that Qin Hao is Liu Hong's son-in-law.

Qin Hao also breathed a sigh of relief. If Dong Zhuo and the others did not agree, he really had nothing to do. Fortunately, everything was going in a good direction.

This time Qin Hao not only returned the command of the [-] cavalry, but also received the help of several generals. Before the end of the decisive battle, Lv Bu, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Liu Bei, and Huaxiong were all under Qin Hao's men.

"Let's talk to you about the arrangements for defending the city. My father is the commander-in-chief of the city, and the three deputy commanders, and the army of [-] people will be divided into four batches. Each of you adults will take turns to defend the city, and the defense will be changed every five days. "

He had already taken the command of the cavalry, and Qin Hao could not take the rest of the army. He could only let Dong Zhuo and others command the headquarters to take turns to defend the city. The Yanmen Army was all cavalry and did not need to defend the city, so the fourth group of defenders Naturally, it was the original defender of Hulao Pass.

For such an arrangement, even the picky Dong Zhuo couldn't find any faults, and naturally no one would have an opinion.

"But nephew, the Yellow Turbans have a million troops, and we only have [-] troops. With such a huge disparity in troops, can we really defend Hulao Pass?" Ding Yuan asked worriedly.

Qin Hao couldn't answer this question, so he could only look to his father for help. Qin Wen smiled and said, "Hulao Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the danger is even greater than that of Yanmen Pass. One hundred thousand defenders is enough. Before leaving, Your Majesty Promise to Wen that if the loss of troops is too great, we will make up for the loss."

Qin Wen's remarks completely dispelled all worries in the hearts of everyone, especially Dong Zhuo.

Since there is a reimbursement from the top, what is there to be afraid of?Spread your arms and fight!

"Brother Bo Wen once repelled the Xiongnu's [-] attacks with a weak force. Now the form of Hulao Pass is much better than that of Yanmen Pass, so there is brother Bo Wen guarding the Hulao, and I, Ding Jianyang, can rest assured."

Ding Yuan looked completely confident in Qin Wen, and Qin Wen felt a little embarrassed to see Ding Yuan touting himself like this.

"Brother Jianyang, you can't say that, this situation is completely different!"

"Ugh…"

Seeing Qin Wen's modesty, Liu Yu laughed and joked, "Brother Bo, you are too modest, but you are proud!"

"Ha ha!"

Seeing this, Dong Zhuo laughed and said: "Our army is backed by more than 30 troops. With Hulao Pass, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and Brother Bo Ren, a famous general who is good at defending. It seems that this battle has come to an end. It's invincible!"

"Brother Zhongying said yes!"

"Haha, we will win this battle!"

Seeing this, Qin Wen shook his head helplessly, and Liu Yu and others laughed happily, and were extremely optimistic about the big battle.

Seeing that everyone was so optimistic, Qin Hao couldn't bear to attack, but he had to say something, so he interjected: "There is something Qin Hao must remind everyone."

Everyone was stunned, we are praising your father, you are pouring cold water at this time, don't you give your father a little face?

However, considering Qin Wen's son who had demolished the platform, he also had the patience to listen to Qin Hao's next words.

"When Qin Hu returned from chasing the defeated army, he happened to bump into Xiang Yu who broke out of the siege, but Xiang Yu was rescued by the Mo family. This shows that the Mo family has decided to help the Yellow Turbans."

When everyone heard this, their smiles were restrained, and they all looked solemn.

Although Qin Hao's news is not a bolt from the blue, it is also very bad news.

The Mo family was good at making weapons. If they helped the Yellow Turbans, they would definitely manufacture a lot of siege equipment for them. Even if Hulao Pass was easy to defend and difficult to attack, it would definitely suffer heavy losses in front of thousands of siege weapons.

"Trouble, since the Yellow Turbans have the help of the Mo family, defending the city must be a hard battle."

Although Qin Wen is very confident in his defense of the city, he also depends on his opponent. The Mo family has no intention of being an opponent that makes Qin Wen's confidence shake.

"No, there is no catapult in Hulao Guanrang. If the Mo family helped the Yellow Turbans build a catapult, the consequences would be disastrous." Qin Wen said solemnly.

The catapult is a relatively inexplicable engineering device, and if the direction of defending the city suppresses the catapult, it must also have a catapult.

Liu Yu finally stopped being blindly optimistic and asked anxiously, "What should I do then?"

Qin Wen took a deep breath, thought for a while, and said, "Hao'er, get ready, and then return to Luoyang to report the truth of His Majesty's Hulao Pass, and let Luoyang make the catapult, hopefully it will be too late."

Catapults have appeared in the Spring and Autumn Period, but later, with the dismissal of hundreds of schools by the great Han, and the loss of a large number of documents, the great Han gradually no one knew how to make catapults.

After all, the skilled craftsmen who really know how to make are all from the Mohist and artisan schools. Your Han family is forcing the entire school to die. How can they help you make ordnance?

However, the production method of the catapult must still be found in the Han Dynasty, but I don’t know if it can be made. After all, the technical content of the catapult is relatively high.

After the meeting, Qin Wen left Qin Hao alone before he left, and said with a smile, "Hao'er, you are more mature than before."

Qin Hao sighed: "People always have to grow up! By the way, the child has a gift for his father."

"Oh?"

Qin Hao handed Tai'a behind him to Qin Wen, but Qin Wen didn't pick it up. Instead, he shook his head and smiled and said, "Hao'er, it's not like you can go into battle to kill the enemy as a father. Mingjian can only be cast in secret in the hands of a husband."

Qin Hao shook his head and said, "Father, look carefully."

Qin Wen took it suspiciously, and after taking out Tai'a, his complexion changed greatly, and he said with a slight trembling, "Tai'a!"

"Does father like this gift?" Qin Hao asked with a smile.

Qin Wen returned the sword to the sheath and laughed: "I like it, I like it very much, Haoer, you have a heart."
