Global Warring States: Get the Tang Taizong template at the beginning

Chapter 308 Peace is the most precious thing
"Zong Luohou, how about working for me?"

Li Qian extended an olive branch to Zong Luohou.

Zong Luohou and Zhai Changsun were both veteran generals of Western Qin in the late Sui Dynasty. Together with Xue Ju, the overlord of Western Qin, they defeated the eight generals of the Tang army.

Zong Luohou tilted his head to the side and said: "I would rather die than surrender."

"..."

Li Qian had a headache. There were many rebellious generals in history, such as Wu Sangui and An Lushan, but there were also many loyal ministers, such as Guan Yu, Dian Wei, and Shi Jingsi.

Zong Luohou was quite loyal to the Overlord of Western Qin.

Li Qian tried the compulsory recruitment order.

"Ding, you used the third-rate compulsory recruitment order... Failed to use, Zong Luohou is a second-rate general, the item is invalid."

As a general under Xue Ju, it is not an exaggeration for Zong Luohou to be rated as a second-rate general by the system.

This is a bit tricky.

Li Qian doesn't have a second-rate compulsory recruitment order.

So Li Qian had no choice but to temporarily detain Zong Luohou and wait until he got the second-rate compulsory recruitment order before forcibly recruiting Zong Luohou. Or wait until Zong Luohou changed his mind and joined the light.

"Build the city walls and prepare to fight the greatest emperor of all time."

Li Qian captured the Western Qin City. The Overlord of Western Qin built the city so that it was as solid as a rock. Even if the city was damaged during the siege by Li Qian and Li Jing, it would still be indestructible as long as it was repaired in time.

With the busy work of tens of thousands of troops, a temporary fence was quickly built on the damaged city wall to block the gap, and knife carts were placed behind the city gate to block the gate at any time.

Even if the greatest emperor of all time came with an army of 100,000 to attack, Li Qian was confident that he could use this city to wear down the enemy.

Li Qian had not yet completely digested the two counties he had just annexed, so he decided to take a defensive stance. After all, the three lord players, Emperor Qiangu Yidi, King Zheng, and Daliangzao, had a combined force of about 170,000 to 180,000 soldiers, many of whom were high-level soldiers.

Eighty miles away from Xiqin City, the Great Emperor of All Ages, King Zheng, Daliangzao, and Timely Rain finally reunited with the Overlord of Xiqin, and the power of Nanyang County against Li Qian reached its peak.

However, the two forces of Ji Shi Yu and Overlord of Western Qin existed in name only. They only had a few thousand soldiers left. They could no longer be considered lords, but at most vassals of the greatest emperor of all time.

Not only that, the great emperor sent two generals, Han Qinhu and He Ruobi, to support the Overlord of Western Qin. They led 10,000 cavalrymen, but lost nearly 5,000 cavalrymen in order to rescue the Overlord of Western Qin.

These are five thousand cavalrymen, not five thousand cabbages.

Any force that loses 5,000 cavalry will feel sad for a while.

For players in the early and middle stages, five thousand cavalry are more valuable.

The Overlord of Western Qin had a gloomy expression on his face.

After Zhai Changsun, the general Zong Luohou, whom he had recruited with great difficulty, was also captured alive by Li Qian.

Zong Luohou was at least a second-rate general. After he was captured, the Overlord of Western Qin had almost no generals left, except for one Qiang general, Zhong Lisu.

Zhong Lisu was the leader of the Qiang people in Minshan at the end of the Sui Dynasty. Xue Ju raised an army, defeated the Sui general Huangfu Wan, and captured the city of Fuhan. Zhong Lisu led 20,000 people to surrender, and Xue Ju's military power was greatly boosted.

The Overlord of Western Qin only recruited three generals. As a result, Zhai Changsun, who commanded his own special military unit, the "Black Armor Army", and Zong Luohou, who commanded his own special military unit, the "Western Liang Iron Cavalry", were both captured alive, leaving only the brave but foolish Zhong Lisu.

The Overlord of Western Qin lost his territory and generals, and had no choice but to rely on the emperor of all ages like timely rain: "Although the scholar has annexed two counties, it is too late to convert the population and money and grain of these two counties into combat power. We should immediately send troops to attack and kill the scholar."

"Yes, this is the best chance to defeat the scholar!"

Ji Shiyu was defeated by Li Qian just like the Overlord of Western Qin, so he and the Overlord of Western Qin urged the emperor of all ages to send troops as soon as possible to fight a decisive battle with Li Qian.

"Go south."

After a brief thought, the Emperor agreed with their views and led an army of 100,000 to the south. Prince Zheng and Daliangzao each led 30,000 to 40,000 troops and went south with the Emperor to attack Rang County.

The combined forces of the three parties numbered nearly 200,000 men, with a massive force and flags covering the sky.

Li Qian devoted all his efforts to building city defenses and preparing the army for war.

He defeated Ji Shi Yu and the Overlord of Western Qin successively, and eliminated a large number of enemy troops, making the situation as favorable as possible for his side.

The outcome is still unknown.

"Report, the Sui army is still seventy miles away from the city!"

"Sixty miles!"

"Fifty miles!"

"Thirty miles!"

"The Sui army has set up camp, probably to be cautious and wait until tomorrow morning before marching again."

……

"The Sui army has moved camp, and is still 20 miles away from the city!"

"Fifteen miles!"

"Report! Another large army has appeared, with no less than 200,000 people!"

When the scouts in the front were reporting the progress of the Sui army, the greatest emperor of all time, to Li Qian one after another, an unexpected change occurred. That is, another force joined the battle, and the number of people was more than that of the greatest emperor of all time!
"Is it possible..."

Li Qian thought that the only force in the entire Nanyang County with an army of more than 200,000 was Nanyang Prefect Qin Jie.

As the governor of Nanyang, Qin Jie most likely came to mediate.

The conflict between Li Qian and the Greatest Emperor in History became increasingly intense, with the scale of the war exceeding 200,000 or 300,000. In Nanyang County, it was already the largest conflict since the Yellow Turban Rebellion. Li Qian, as the prefect of Xinye, captured Rang County and Anzhong County, while the Greatest Emperor in History led an army of 100,000 to the south, which also exceeded the rules.

Nanyang prefect Qin Jie finally couldn't sit still and took action himself.

Now Emperor Ling of Han is still alive, the court still has its majesty, and the provincial governors and prefects in various places are still very obedient, so the conflicts between players will be more or less restricted.

This is good news for Li Qian.

Li Qian needs time to digest the annexed Rang County and Anzhong County.

The population of the three counties can reach tens of millions, and Li Qian can mobilize 200,000 to 300,000 soldiers. Then he will be more confident in fighting a decisive battle with the greatest emperor of all time.

Moreover, after fighting against the two major forces, Ji Shi Yu and Xi Qin Overlord, the soldiers were already a little tired and needed to rest.

Nanyang Prefect Qin Jie arrived at the right time.

Li Qian’s guess was correct, the person who came was indeed Qin Jie, the prefect of Nanyang.

Qin Jie arrived from Wancheng with 300,000 troops and once again mediated the conflict between the lords of Nanyang County. He invited Li Qian, the Emperor of All Ages and others to the camp for reconciliation.

Li Qian brought Li Xiuning, Huang Zhong, Qin Qiong, Yuchi Jingde, Beigong Chun, Mu Guiying, Li Siye and other brave generals to the meeting, and left Li Jing to command the army. Once a conflict broke out, Li Jing would immediately lead his troops to attack.

The great emperor showed no sign of weakness, and brought with him powerful generals such as Yang Lin, Han Qinhu, He Ruobi, Wu Sangui, and other lord players such as the Overlord of Western Qin, Timely Rain, Daliangzao, and King Zheng into the Han military camp in Nanyang.

The Overlord of Western Qin brought with him the burly Qiang general Zhong Lisu, Timely Rain brought with him the double-gun general Dong Ping and the red-haired ghost Liu Tang, and the King of Zheng brought with him Shan Xiongxin and other generals, all of them followed the greatest emperor of all time in with a ferocious look.

Nanyang Governor Qin Jie ordered both parties to take their seats and raised his wine cup: "In the use of etiquette, harmony is the most important. I beg you to do this for my sake and put peace first, and turn hostility into friendship."
