Chapter 187: Murong Jun
What kind of person Fu Sheng is, there is a clear record in the history books, although it may not be 100% accurate, but it is generally not wrong.
It was precisely because he expected that this would happen after he ascended the throne of God, so Li Xin would let Tu Qi secretly do it before to help Fu Sheng ascend to the throne.
Now it seems that everything is as he expected, the situation in Longxi is sliding towards the unfavorable situation of the Fu Qin court, but it is favorable to the Huashan army.
This is naturally a good thing for Li Xin. What I have to do now is to wait and see what happens, step up preparations, and when the time is ripe, I will make a big move to wipe out the remnants of Fu Qin in one fell swoop.
At that time, if the entire Guanzhong is west, you can basically rest assured. Moreover, the strategic depth of the Huashan Army will become even greater. There is more room for manoeuvring and scheduling, and many things will naturally be easier to do.
"If there is a change in Longxi, it will be a good opportunity for us, we should prepare early!" Liu Xiaohai proposed.
"Preparations have been made, but it's clearly not time yet. Let's be patient! At the very least, it will have to wait until next year's grain grows! However, when it comes to destroying the remnants of Fu Qin, I am most worried about you here. After all, if the Murong clan sees our main force advancing westward, I am afraid that they will take the opportunity to make a move, intending to seize Hedong and enter Guanzhong! When the time comes, the pressure on you here will inevitably increase greatly! Li Xin glanced at the two of them and said.
"Here in the east of the river, there is a barrier to the king's house in the east, and there is the danger of the Zhongtiao River in the south, so you don't have to worry too much. What's more, now that the Yiguan is in our hands, even if the other party wants to get in, it is not so easy. Once we really start a war with Longxi, the last general will definitely take a defensive position here. In this way, the strong strength of the other party will not play a big role. Hearing this, Liu Xiaohai groaned for a moment and analyzed.
"Hebei County and Dayang County, south of Zhongtiao Mountain, are still a little less powerful, but fortunately there is still a river, as long as you hold those ferries, there is basically no problem. The only enemy who can fight from the south is only Yang Qun for the time being, but I don't think he has the guts! Liao Chuan also spoke.
"It's fairly safe in both directions, and you'll have to worry about the threat from the north. If the enemy came from Taiyuan, Shangdang, Xinxing and other counties in the north, would this current defense line be able to stop it? Although there are mountains as a separation, but compared to the end of the year, there is no Xiongguan pass, once the enemy breaks through, the right side can be from north to south, sweeping the entire east of the river! Li Xin pointed to the north, his expression serious.
The area north of Hedong County is mainly divided into two parts, one is Pingyang County on the edge of Wenxi Fenyin and other counties, this county also belonged to Sizhou in the past.
And further north, you will go to Taiyuan, such as Taiyuan County, Xinxing County, Xihe County, Yanmen County and other places, which belong to the state.
But if these counties are to be divided, in Li Xin's opinion, they should actually be divided according to geographical location! Because some of these places are located in the Fen River Valley, such as Jinyang County, Daling County, Pingtao County, etc., which are basically located on both sides of the Fen River.
The other part of the county is located in the Taihang Mountains. Such as Shangdang County, Xihe County, Xinxing County and other places! The Fenhe Valley in the north, because of the flat terrain, as long as there is a strong cavalry, it can almost be fought directly from Jinyang or even a little north from Yanmen County to Hedong County.
If the Murong clan came from that place, I am afraid that this defense line that is now blocking the north will really not be able to stop it. After all, Liao Chuan and the others don't have much troops in their hands, and they don't have a tall city wall to rely on.
And once the enemy really hits Hedong, then the result is needless to say, and Guanzhong will immediately enter a state of martial law. At that time, if the main force of the Huashan Army is in Longxi again, it will definitely be a very dangerous thing.
"The last general is also worried about this, fortunately, the land of the current annex is basically a plate of scattered sand, although some people are also obedient to the Murong clan, but it is only on the surface. In fact, they are not very willing to offend us for the sake of the Murong Clan. Liu Xiaohai thought for a while before he said.
"That was before, I just got the news not long ago, and Zhang Ping from Bingzhou couldn't sit still. I'm afraid that when the weather improves next year, there will be some action. This person is at both ends of the head, one will descend to Qin, one will descend to Yan, and the other will descend to Jin, always with the idea of leaving and right, just thinking about reaping benefits for himself. In the eyes of this kind of person, they can only see the immediate interests and can't see the things that are too long-term, so it is very likely that they will focus on the place of Hedong and be our enemy. This is something you should pay close attention to! Li Xin shook his head and said lightly.
"No wonder, I said that there seem to be more displaced people from the north lately. Hearing the news brought by those people, it seems that Zhang Ping is indeed constantly recruiting troops and horses, and is strengthening his strength! In this way, I really have to guard against it! Liao Chuan frowned.
"The territory south of Binh Duong County is not conducive to defense after all, and it is too passive for us. If possible, the general thinks that we should take Pingyang County, even if we can't take the whole county, we should suppress most of the county and rebuild a defense line facing the north. In this way, the initiative is in our hands! Liu Xiaohai heard this and proposed.
"That's a good idea, but we can't act yet. However, you can discuss it secretly, and if the time is ripe in the future, or if the situation changes, you can do it immediately! Li Xin pondered for a moment, and then nodded.
The three of them were eating and chatting together, and few people knew that the things they were talking about at this time were all far-reaching events.
Compared with Li Xin's simple and shabby Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and Dragon City, which is more than two thousand miles away, Murong Jun's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is much richer and more luxurious.
In the Dragon City Palace, Murong Jun, as the emperor, hosted a banquet for the princes and ministers who accompanied him and stayed in Dragon City. Not only is the good wine and food non-stop, but also there are dances and music to cheer up, which is a lively scene.
"Your Majesty, this is a secret letter sent urgently from Jicheng!" Just when the wine was hot, the chamberlain who was waiting beside Murong Jun suddenly sent a letter and whispered to him.
"Huh?" Hearing this, Murong Jun couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then took it over and took it apart. It's just that after looking at it twice, the originally happy face immediately sank. I was already a little drunk, but at this moment it seems that I have suddenly sobered up.
"Please ask the King of Taiyuan and Sikong Houdian to discuss matters!" After pondering for a while, Murong Jun commanded. As for himself, he got up and rushed directly to the apse.
It didn't take long for Murong Ke, the king of Taiyuan, and Sikong Yanglu to arrive. Both of them are important ministers of the Yan State, especially Murong Ke, the king of Taiyuan, who can be said to be the pillar of the Yan State and the brother of Murong Jun. Therefore, on this northern tour, Murong Jun deliberately took him with him, in order to be safe and secure.
These two people were originally drinking and feasting in the palace, but they didn't expect to be summoned suddenly, and they couldn't help but have some doubts in their hearts, not knowing what happened.
"Your Majesty!" When they arrived at the apse, the two hurriedly saluted.
"No excuses! Look at this! Murong Jun waved his hand, and then asked the two of them to hand over the secret letter to the two of them!
Murong Ke and Yang Lu took a closer look, and they couldn't help but be shocked in their hearts. Just because what is written above is too significant. Moreover, the person who ordered this letter to come was not an ordinary person, but Murong Jun's queen Ke Zuhun clan.
"I want to send someone to take down King Wu and correct the law on the spot, what is the opinion of the two Aiqing?" Murong Jun looked at the two of them and said in a deep voice.
"This ..... Your Majesty, in the opinion of Yichen, this matter is quite strange, and it is better to act cautiously. Wu Wangxing~ Things have always been respectful and hardworking, how could he do such a rebellious thing? Please think again, Your Majesty! Hearing this, Murong Ke thought for a moment before he spoke.
"Exactly! We are too far away from Jicheng to hear from us, and we only rely on a letter from the queen, and it was written many days ago, so I am afraid it is not enough to believe. This matter is a matter of princes and nobles, and it is necessary to be cautious. Otherwise, it will inevitably be a bitter hatred! Sikong Yanglu also persuaded on the side.
Empress Kezuhun wrote a letter, in which she said that since Murong Jun's northern tour, Jizhou Assassin Shi and Wu King Murong Chui have been acting in secret. In the name of defense, he continued to expand his personal soldiers, and also built armor and weapons, which seemed to be subordinate.
The most important thing is that from the news from the people around Murong Trai, Murong Trai has always held a grudge against being transferred back to the Central Plains from Dragon City. Therefore, there are many complaints and curses against Murong Jun on weekdays.
This Murong Chui is actually Murong Jun's brother, but unlike Murong Ke, the treatment he received here is completely different.
The key to this is to say that Murong Jun's father liked Murong Trai very much when he was alive, and once wanted to make Murong Trai the crown prince.
If it weren't for the advice of the ministers, I'm afraid that it would not be Murong Jun who is sitting on the throne of the Emperor of Yan State now, but Murong Chui. With such a grudge, it's strange that this Murong Jun would like Murong Chui.
Originally, he was angry that Murong Trai was praised by his father back then, and he had always been guarding against Murong Trai! At this time, there was suddenly another news like this, which was simply right in Murong Jun's heart.
In short, everything said in this letter made Murong Jun feel very credible. Moreover, the disgust and jealousy of Murong Chui for many years also reached its peak at this moment, and he finally couldn't help but start.
