Liu Yu's eyes were shining, and he began to think about the war in the entire north, and muttered: "Fatty, Luoyang, how is it now." Huan's Jingzhou soldiers and horses, how is it going? ”

Liu Muzhi put away his smile and lowered his voice: "When you were talking to Lord Xianggong here just now, I also got a very important news, I heard that Shi Huanchong, the assassin of Jingzhou, is seriously ill and can no longer continue to preside over the Northern Expedition and return to Jiangling!" ”

Liu Yu was so shocked that he jumped up directly from the boulder: "How is this possible?" Isn't Huan Chong full of confidence that he wants to recover the Central Plains and establish immortal feats? The day before yesterday, it was not just to capture Xiangyang, but to march into the Central Plains and recover Luoyang, and the situation is very good. ”

Liu Muzhi sighed: "That is, his life is not good, I heard that this time Huan Chong, is ashamed of the disease, before the battle of Huangshui, he once sent Huan Xuan to lead the army to aid Jiankang, but the result was returned to Lord Xianggong, and then he said that Xie Xianggong has the amount of prime minister, but not accustomed to military affairs, and the children on the front line are more than enough to talk about Xuan, and the decisive victory is insufficient, I am afraid that this time, everyone will be like Hu Ren." ”

Liu Yu's brows furrowed: "As the coach of one side, it is too inappropriate to lose his prestige like this before the war." ”

Liu Muzhi said with a smile: "Yes, he was too full of words before the war, but Xuan Shuai made him embarrassed with a beautiful victory." Huan Chong has been competing with Xie Xianggong all his life, but he was completely divided in the decisive battle, he was so arrogant, he was naturally resentful in his heart, and he began to get sick because of the hard work of the military in recent days. ”

Liu Yu sighed: "Time is also, life is also." It is really regrettable that tens of thousands of soldiers were wasted in the hard battle of just one person's illness. Originally, the Jingzhou army conquered Xiangyang and continued to the north, conquering Luoyang was just around the corner, but now the commander is sick and retreating, alas. ”

Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "Huan Chong retreated, but his two sons, Huan Shimin and Huan Shiqian, did not retreat, they still led the army to the north, preparing to capture Luoyang." ”

Liu Yu's face changed: "What, their fathers have retreated, and these two sons have not retreated?" ”

Liu Muzhi's eyes flashed coldly: "At this time, you can't say anything back, if you fully withdraw to Jingzhou, then I'm afraid the power of Huan Chong's family will not be guaranteed." Huan Xuan was staring at the position behind Huan Chong. ”

Liu Yu shook his head in disbelief: "How could Huan Chong die this time?" I don't believe it. At most, he was sick for a while. ”

Liu Muzhi hooked the corners of his mouth and said: "The world is impermanent, although I don't know the specific situation, but with my intuition, at such a critical time, if I can still stand up, even if I am forced to sit in a wheelchair, I will not go back to Jiangling." After all, how can you give up like this with this great achievement of recovering Luoyang? So Huan Chong is afraid that he will not be able to do it, he left his two sons, it is unlikely that he will really attack Luoyang, but wait for Fu Hui to retreat to Guanzhong by himself, so that they can take Luoyang without much effort, with such credit, their brother's status can be guaranteed. ”

Liu Yu's brows furrowed: "If Huan Chong is really critically ill, then Huan Xuan may return to Jingzhou to seize power soon." This time he bought that Lu Zongzhi, obviously he wanted to use this person to recruit heroes in the pass, in order to build his own strength, although Huan Shiqian and Huan Shimin are older than him and have deeper qualifications than him, but after all, he is the son of the Huan family, and even Huan Chong has said many times that he will return the position of Jingzhou Assassin to Huan Xuan in the future. Now if Huan Chong's life is really short, I am afraid that Jingzhou will fall into the hands of this black-bellied son. ”

Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "Huan Xuan's thoughts, you and I both know, the emperor and Jiankang's family know even better, if Xie Xianggong is here, he will not let this careerist control Jingzhou so easily, the reason why the Huan Shiqian brothers took the risk of not being able to see their father for the last time, and resolutely did not retreat, is that there must be a credit that can take over the history of Jingzhou, I think, there is nothing more suitable than capturing Luoyang." ”

Liu Yu nodded: "I see." In this way, the Huan family is determined to win Luoyang, and after capturing Luoyang, they will definitely withdraw their troops back to Jiangling, and the Northern Expedition on the West Road will end here, and it is impossible to enter Tuguanzhong, right? ”

Liu Muzhi nodded: "Even if Huan Chong doesn't have an accident, I don't think he will easily attack Guanzhong, Huan Wen was defeated in Guanzhong that year, Huan Chong was also in the army at that time, he should have a deep understanding of the combat effectiveness of the fierce old Qin people in Guanzhong, in the absence of absolute strength, it is not a good opportunity to capture Guanzhong." Oh, by the way, the Huan family's Northern Expedition this time, there is also an unknown result, that is, another partial division was sent to attack the direction of Liangzhou. ”

Liu Yuqi said: "Liangzhou direction? Is it Hanzhong? This is the southern gateway of Guanzhong, and Shu Han was able to make many northern expeditions to Guanzhong back then, that is, he controlled Hanzhong. And there are many Qiang here, the Di tribe, once they can gain a foothold, they can seize Bashu in the south, and they can attack Guanzhong in the north, which is a place where soldiers must fight. Back then, Liu Bei, Emperor Zhaolie of the Shu Han Dynasty, once personally fought with Cao Cao here to seize the land of Liangzhou, how could the Huan family succeed with a partial division? ”

Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "Because of the rebellion of the Qifu tribe in the Longyou region, in a few months, there were more than 100,000 tents and Qiang people, and the Di people responded, and a large number of Qin troops stationed in Liangzhou were transferred to crusade against the Western Qin of the Qifu clan, guarding the emptiness, and Huan Chong chose the right general to cut Liangzhou, so the battle was successful!" ”

Liu Yu smiled: "Who is the general of Fa Liang?" It can be determined by the partial teacher, and it must not be a general. ”

Liu Muzhi's face trembled, and his eyes gradually squeezed into two slits: "Actually, he is an old acquaintance, it is Yang Liang, the assassin of Liangzhou in the former Great Jin Dynasty, and the pioneers for him are his two sons, Yang Guang and Yang Yanqi, who are famous for their fierceness and good fighting." ”

Liu Yu nodded thoughtfully: "Hongnong Yang, I've heard of it." In the past, when the blacksmith building was with Maoqiu and Feng Qian, they often talked about the characters in the land of Bashu, they said that Yang Liang father and son, although they were famous scholars of the family, after Hongnong Yang, there were ancestors of the Eastern Han Dynasty Taiwei Yang Zhen, the great Confucian Yang Xiong, but in recent times, there are many fierce generals, Yang Guang and Yang Yan period brothers, even in the west, are also known for their fierceness, rape and belligerence, and that Yang Liang period, is even more proficient in the art of war, there are generals. How could such a person come to Jingzhou in Huanchong and use it for his own use? ”

Liu Muzhi said with a smile: "In the past, when the Qin State was strong, it went south to capture the Bashu region of the Great Jin Dynasty, and before the attack on Bashu, Liangzhou bore the brunt of the attack. ”
