Three Kingdoms Summoning: Peak Resurgence

Chapter 126 Di Qing in Action

The three central and northern counties are Dingxiang, Yunzhong and Wuyuan counties.

Dingxiang County, with its seat in Shanwu, governed five counties in total, namely Shanwu, Zhongling, Wucheng, Luoxian, and Tongguo.

Yunzhong Commandery, with its seat in Yunzhong, governed 11 counties in total, namely Yunzhong, Shaling, Shanan, Jiling, Chengle, Wujin, Yuanyang, Dingxiang, Xianyang (just the same name, and has nothing to do with Guanzhong and Xianyang), Wuquan, and Beiyu.

Wuyuan Commandery, with its seat in Jiuyuan, governed nine counties, namely Jiuyuan, Heyin, Linwo, Wuyuan, Yiliang, Chengyi, Xi'anyang, Wudu, and Manbo.

Since the second year of Yongshou, which was twenty-eight years ago, when Tan Shihuai led three or four thousand cavalrymen to invade Yunzhong County of the Eastern Han Dynasty, these places fell into the hands of foreign races.

Over the past twenty years, after being persecuted by the Xiongnu, Xianbei and other forces, the population has long been sparse, but no matter what, it is still a relatively large territory.

Moreover, Wang Yu said in his letter that even if he could not be the commander of the entire army in this battle and defeat the Yanmen Army, he had to take over the three central and northern counties.

Therefore, when Qin Hao was busy discussing countermeasures with military advisor Wang Meng regarding Temujin's affairs and had no time to take care of other things, Di Qing immediately ordered Shi Yu and others to lead the troops away slowly so as not to be discovered by the soldiers of the Yanmen Army.

At this time, the sky was still a little dark.

As the Bingzhou Army slowly retreated, there were only 30,000 Yanmen troops, plus the remaining Bingzhou Army that was not working effectively. It was not an easy task to deal with the 40,000 reinforcements.

After Di Qing's army slowly withdrew from the battlefield and walked for some time, the Yanmen Army finally eliminated all the 40,000 Hun reinforcements and prepared to take the captives back to Guangwu.

At this moment, all the soldiers of the Yanmen Army were eagerly waiting for the fire to end, so that they could lead the army to recapture the three central and northern counties and completely receive the fruits of victory.

Due to Wang Meng's series of strategies, the garrisons in the three central and northern counties were basically withdrawn by Yu Furuo. Even if all the garrisons in the twenty-five counties were added together, the total number was less than five thousand.

Therefore, for the Yanmen Army, the mission of recovery was almost not difficult.

…………

"Now that the situation has been decided, the next step is to follow the original plan and conquer the three central and northern counties in one fell swoop." Everyone said excitedly, but just when everyone thought that the situation had been decided, an accident happened again.

"My lord, something terrible has happened. General Di Qing left without saying goodbye and led his troops to the northwest!" A soldier suddenly reported.

After Qin Hao heard this, a strong murderous intent flashed in his eyes, but he still held it back. Now was not the time to draw his knife.

However, unlike Qin Hao who did not react at all, Qin Hu on the side immediately exclaimed.

"Northwest? Isn't that the direction where the three central and northern counties are located?" Qin Hu widened his eyes and said in horror: "Di Qing is such a greedy guy. Is he trying to get ahead of our army and take over the three central and northern counties?"

"The Bingzhou Army has the strength to do so. Besides, the merit of recovering the lost territory is no less than that of killing Yufuluo, the Xiongnu Chanyu."

Yue Fei frowned and said thoughtfully, "Since Yu Fuluo was killed by the young master, it is not impossible for him to shift his focus to the three central and northern counties without a great contribution."

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Guan Sheng became furious and said quickly, "Di Qing came here to help, but he relied on his strong soldiers and horses to snatch the credit that should have belonged to our army. How can the Huns have the face to occupy the three central and northern counties?" The generals at Yanmen Pass had a lot of opinions about Di Qing. After hearing what the soldiers said, Di Qing actually left the Yanmen army and went to attack the three central and northern counties alone. All the generals of the Yanmen army were furious.

But this is not surprising. After all, recovering the three central and northern counties was planned by all the generals of the Yanmen Army from the beginning. Now, they have finally defeated the main force of the Huns and smashed it to pieces.

The cooked duck is about to go into your mouth.

But now, Di Qing actually dared to take advantage of this opportunity to seize the fruits of victory. How could the generals of the Yanmen Army not be angry!
"Young Master, we must adopt a strategy to deal with it. We must not let Di Qing's army capture the three central and northern counties. Once these three counties are captured by the Bingzhou army, they will no longer have anything to do with our Yanmen army."

At this moment, even Wang Meng, who was usually calm, showed a trace of anger on his face. The way the Bingzhou army ate was really ugly.

No matter what, the Bingzhou Army represents the Bingzhou Provincial Government. This is why Di Qing was able to become the main general in this battle. The righteousness is there.

Once the Bingzhou army captured the three central and northern counties, no matter how angry the Yanmen army was, it would be of no use. Not only would they be unable to do anything to Di Qing, but it would also make people think that the Yanmen army could not distinguish right from wrong.

After all, in the eyes of the world, the main force of this battle was the Bingzhou Army, and the Yanmen Army was still the supported party. It was also their ability to capture the three counties in the central and northern parts.

Besides, the fat that has been swallowed will not be spit out.

After all, no matter what, their two armies are both under the banner of the Han Dynasty, and the Yanmen Army is supervised by the Bingzhou Governor's Office. If they really go to war with the Bingzhou Army directly for the three counties, then the situation... would be equivalent to rebellion!

Wang Meng and Qin Hao both knew this.

Therefore, they can only choose to suffer this loss in silence.

However, Qin Hao would not let this go.

"It seems I have to write a letter to my fifth uncle and ask him to do something to ruin Di Qing's reputation!" Qin Hao thought to himself.

However, Qin Hao still pretended not to care and said immediately: "Actually, you don't have to worry."

When Qin Hao said this, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and then he sneered: "The three counties in the north and the middle are not so easy to conquer. No matter how powerful Di Qing is, he will be injured. If he wants to fight, let him fight!"

Of course, Qin Hao said this because of Temujin's strength. In addition, he was also prepared to add strength from it.

After all, once the system is balanced, if nothing unexpected happens, Temujin will be strengthened.

However, Qin Hao's subordinates naturally did not know the existence of the system. Military advisor Wang Meng immediately advised them, because Di Qing's reputation in Bingzhou in this life was extremely great.

In Wang Meng's opinion, even if Temujin had great leadership skills, he might not be a match for Di Qing. Besides, the garrison troops in the three counties were less than 5,000, while Di Qing had a total of 50,000 cavalry and infantry from Bingzhou.

"Military advisor, don't forget that Temujin is still in the three central and northern counties!" Qin Hao spoke immediately when he saw Wang Meng trying to dissuade him.
