Chapter 1 When the Opportunity Knocks on the Door 9.The tragedy of Murong Han

Murong Han's tragedy was innate, because he was not a son-in-law, and he had already lost the right to inherit his father's throne when he was in his mother's womb; However, due to his wisdom and bravery, he was destined to be guarded and feared by his successor (Murong Hao).

The stronger the ability, the more guards and fears you will receive; The higher the people's aspirations, the more cold reception they will receive. Resistance is not allowed, and even the slightest dissatisfaction means destruction. If you want to regain your freedom, you must either run away, the farther away the better; Either resist, like Murong Ren,...... The big husband acts, and if he doesn't succeed, he dies.

Murong Han chose to flee.

So, what kind of person is this Murong Han who was forced to avoid trouble after Murong Hao's accession to the throne?

"Heroic, multi-powered, ape-armed, and strong. It is very strange that he is entrusted with the task of compromise. The expedition of the master is meritorious, the prestige is great, and it is feared by far and near. As a town in Liaodong, Goguryeo did not dare to be a coward. Good at caressing, loving Confucianism, as for the soldiers, they are not happy to follow it. ("Book of Jin: The Chronicles of Murong Hao").

Bold personality, wise and brave, able to fight habitually, and powerful on the side. And Corporal Lixian is quite popular, and as for the soldiers, he is not happy to follow it! This is a person who can drink and eat meat in large chunks with you; This is a man who is both civil and military enough to defeat the attack and defend the peace of one side; This is still a polite corporal, who has won the hearts of the people, and has raised his arms and echoed the crowd.

is not a king, but has the ability and temperament of a king, this is the source of Murong Han's personal tragedy.

The first time I saw the narrative about him, the first person I thought of was Xiao Feng in "Dragon Babu"! Murong Han has been a long time ago, but that Xiao Feng has become a permanent legend under the pen of Jin Daxia, with the same martial arts and righteousness, but also in an embarrassing situation and difficult survival. The most wonderful images replayed in my mind, and in that familiar hero, I could find almost all of Murong Han's breath.

Regarding the story of Murong Han, we start with the joint attack of the Three Kingdoms.

In 319, the Eastern Jin Dynasty Pingzhou Assassin Shi Cui Bi joined forces with Goguryeo, Xianbei Duanbu and Xianbei Yuwen to attack Murong Diao.

The cause of the incident will not be repeated, in short, this war is the most severe test that Murong Diao has faced. At the moment of life and death, Murong Han's role was huge, surpassing the contribution of the prince Murong Hao in the battle.

At that time, although Yuwen Xi Duguan had lost the support of two allies (Murong Diao's counter-plot succeeded, and Goguryeo and Xianbei Duanbu left one after another), he was still strong, with a joint camp of thirty miles and hundreds of thousands of troops! At the critical juncture, Murong Diao quickly recruited Murong Han to help. In view of the battlefield situation where the enemy was outnumbered, Murong Han formulated the tactics of harassing the enemy with surprise soldiers, and finally won Murong Diao's approval.

Facts have proved that this is an effective tactic, Murong Diao held on the inner line, Murong Han maneuvered on the outer line, and when the time was ripe, the two armies attacked at the same time, forming a momentum of internal and external attack.

This is how the Yuwen Xianbei Department was defeated, under the external raid of Murong Han and the internal counterattack of Murong Diao, the army of the Yuwen Xianbei Department, which was attacked on both sides, was in a hurry, the army was in turmoil, and was defeated in a battle.

In the battle, Murong Hao not only participated in the whole process, but also personally led the elite cavalry as the vanguard to carry out the assault, and the battle was very brave, but compared with his brother Murong Han, his shining star was still dim, and his exploits were still insignificant. The elder brother's body is magnificent, the elder brother's chest is generous, the elder brother's exploits are worthy of admiration, and the elder brother's ...... The threat to the position of the prince made it difficult for Murong Hao to sleep.

In fact, Murong Han's credit doesn't stop there! On the road from a small tribe to a powerful tribe, Murong Han made great contributions. In 307, in the analysis of whether the Xianbei army went south to King Qin, it is enough to show Murong Han's extraordinary strategic vision and outstanding contributions to the development of the Murong Xianbei army.

Murong Han persuaded Murong Diao like this: "It is better to ask for help from the princes than to be the king of Qin, and all the promising kings since ancient times have achieved meritorious deeds with this." Su Lian and Mu Jin are arrogant, the king is overthrown, and the lives are ruined, and the danger is nothing more than this! Su Lian and others used the name of pungeon Ben, but in fact they rebelled. It has been nearly two years since the overturning of Liaodong; The Central Plains was in turmoil, the Jin army was repeatedly defeated, and the king of Qin was righteous, and the time was today. Shan Ying Shen crusaded against the might, saved the hanging life, and sent volunteers to punish Sulian and Mujin. The upper is to revive the Liao State, and the lower is to annex the two departments, and the outside can get the name of loyalty and righteousness, and the inside is full of private interests. ”

This passage of Murong Han pointed out the sins of Sulian and Mujin, and fully explained and affirmed the justice, necessity and benefits to be obtained by "King Qin". Lift up the righteousness, conform to the people's hearts, swallow the enemy country, and strengthen yourself. It is the right time for the king to be righteous.

Why not?

On the same day, Murong Mo led his troops to conquer Sulian and Mujin, defeated them, and killed Sulian and Mujin, surrendered all the people of the two tribes, moved to Thorn City, and established Liaodong County and returned.

In December 321, Murong Han left the town of Liaodong.

It is not the reason for making great contributions, due to the continuous canonization of Murong Diao in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Murong Hao rose to the top and became the prince. Out of political considerations, Murong Diao ordered Murong Han, who was from a humble background, to leave Liaodong, and he left Thorn City at the same time as the founder of the Liaodong Principality, Murong Ren, to leave the town of Pingguo. The reason is the same.

This is the foresight of a father and a king, since the name has been determined, it is necessary to keep the hopeless child away from the center of power, and without the hope of participation, the possibility of succession will be cut off, so as to avoid the tragedy of brothers fighting each other and father and son cannibalism.

Murong Han's excellence lies in his ability to not only highlight heroes in the flames of war, but also to demonstrate his ability to govern the world in peace and tranquility. During the period of guarding Liaodong, Murong Han was gracious and powerful, not only settling and comforting the people of Hu and Han, but also being a corporal of Lixian, which won the hearts of the people. Moreover, with him, it is enough to deter other countries (Goguryeo) from afar, so that they will not dare to offend.

Murong Ren in Pingguo followed suit.

At the beginning of Murong Ren's army, there were many responders from the Xianbei tribes, and there was once a momentum to replace Murong Hao, in addition to Murong Hao's own strict politics and intolerable people, there was also Murong Han's credit in it, and Murong Ren's imitation of Murong Han was very successful.

Originally, it was a classic version of a father's kindness and filial piety, and the whole family's heroics, but with the death of Murong Diao, the Xianbei Murong Department soon changed the sky.

In October 333, Murong Han and his son went out to Duanbu. Faced with Murong Hao's suspicion, Murong Han had no choice.

"I accepted the position from my late father, and I did not dare not do my best, but fortunately, relying on my father's spirit in heaven, I was invincible, and this is God's help to my country, not man's doing. But others say that this is my strength, that I have outstanding talents, that it is difficult to subdue, how can I sit idly by! ”

Stay, what awaits Murong Han will be the death of the nest, and there may be a glimmer of life if he escapes. Of course, it is also possible to resist! Unite with Murong Ren to crusade against Murong Hao, and then what? It's just a point of no return where there is constant infighting in the family.

Duan Liao was full of joy and love for Murong Han's arrival, and talent was not only the most expensive in the twenty-first century, but also crazy in China in the fourth century AD. Duan Liao hopes that his favor and importance can make Murong Han happy and convinced, and he will use it for himself from now on!

In February 334, Liucheng (now Lingyuan Town, Lingyuan County, Liaoning).

It was no longer clear how many times this was the first attack, Murong Han and Duan Liao's younger brother Duan Lan stood on the hill not far from Liucheng, looking at the soldiers who were retreating like a tide, with a helpless expression. The war between Duan Liao and the Murong family has been fought intermittently for many years, due to Murong Ren's rebellion and Murong Han's escape, the Xianbei Murong Department has encountered severe tests again and again.

A good time should not be missed, and after severely reprimanding Duan Lan and others, Duan Liao continued to deploy troops and strengthen the attack.

At this moment, Murong Hao's reinforcements were finally dispatched, led by Murong Khan. This is a man who is more than brave and less strategic, under Murong Haoqian's instructions and Sima Fengyi's strong persuasion, Murong Khan still rushed forward, rushed straight to Liucheng, and was ambushed by Duan Lan in Niuwei Valley and suffered a crushing defeat.

Duan Lan, who was defeated by the blunt soldiers in Liucheng, raised his eyebrows in the first battle, and planned to take advantage of the victory to pursue. But Murong Han, who had been fighting side by side with Duan Lan, stopped attacking. It's just to avoid trouble, not to be a traitor to the motherland, what's more, if the Xianbei Murong Department really perishes because of this, how much value will Murong Han have left in the Xianbei Section?

Duan Lan not only saw through Murong Han's mind at a glance, but also directly singled out Murong Han's worries, and made a guarantee, "With Murong Ren as the heir, if you don't make the temple extinct, you will live up to it!" ”

It stands to reason that when it comes to this, Murong Han should have marched anyway, but he didn't. When his mind was seen through and persuasion was ineffective, Murong Han led his army to return alone. Duan Lan, who was bent on attacking, had no choice but to give up the good situation and withdraw with Murong Han.

It seems that the relationship between "Western clothes" and "Chinese heart" can coexist 2,000 years ago. Murong Hao should be grateful to his elder brother for helping him eliminate the military disaster even though he was forced to flee to another country.

In March 338, under the combined attack of Later Zhao and Murong Hao, Duan Liao was defeated and fled to Miyun. Murong Han lost his hiding place and defected to the Yuwen Ministry.

Not all leaders will cherish Murong Han's talent, compared with Duan Liao, Yuwen Yidougui obviously lacks the bearing of a king, and Murong Han, who is extraordinary and famous, finally attracted jealousy, Yuwen Yidougui adopted regular inspections and irregular spot checks to closely monitor Murong Han.

Murong Han began to pretend to be crazy.

When the man who was originally high above suddenly became a lowly person, who did not live in the room of the carved gallery and painted building, but was willing to sleep in the pigsty; I don't eat the delicacies of the mountains and seas, but I am willing to compete with the wild dogs on the side of the road for a bowl of dog rice; The prince, who was above ten thousand people, bowed down to any poor people who passed by on the street. Whatever the reason, these will cause the original lofty and majestic image to collapse in the hearts of those who see it, and the most virtuous people will cast a contemptuous look at it.

Who would bother to care about such a person every day?

In fact, Yuwen Yidougui lifted his guard against Murong Han, and Murong Han, who regained his freedom, began to work as a spy, keeping the situation of the mountains and rivers of the Yuwen Department in mind. …… Later, the Ubunbu perished as a result.

When Murong Han remembered the terrain of the mountains and rivers of Yuwen Xianbei, Murong Hao appeared at the right time, first sent a businessman named Wang Che to test his attitude in the name of doing business, and after learning that Murong Han missed his homeland, Murong Hao made a special trip to make a weapon (bow and arrow) for Murong Han, and began to plan for his return.

In February 340, Murong Han fled with his two sons, and when he left, he stole Yuwen Yidougui's BMW.

It is said that although the BMW is brave, it has not run past the chasing soldiers, and when he saw that he was about to be caught up, Murong Han stopped his horse and said to the pursuers: "I have lived in Ruguo for a long time, I am attached, and I can't bear to kill you, you can wait for a hundred steps away from me, see me shoot a knife at a hundred steps, if you are hit, you can return to your life, if you are not hit, let you wait to catch you." The pursuers untied their sabers and stuck them on the ground, Murong Han stretched out his bow and set up an arrow, and an arrow hit the knife ring, the pursuers scattered in fear, and Murong Han returned home safely.

In February 344, Murong Hao's troops were divided into three routes to personally conquer Yuwen Xianbei's troops, and the forward general was Murong Han.

Due to Murong Han's existence, all the secrets of Yuwen Xianbei have ceased to be secrets. The leading generals of the Yuwen Ministry were killed in the night, the army of the Yuwen Department collapsed without a fight, and the Murong Department pursued the victory and conquered the capital of the Yuwen Ministry, Zimengchuan (now northwest of Chaoyang, Liaoning), and Yuwen Yidou fled to Mobei. Since then, Yuwen Yidou has not come back until he died. Murong Hao collected all the animal products, materials, and money of the Yuwen Xianbei tribe, and moved more than 5,000 villages to Changli (now Yixian County, Liaoning), opening up more than 1,000 miles of territory. The original night dry town of Nanluo City was renamed Weide City, and then the class returned to China.

The last moment finally came, and Murong Han, who had made great contributions, did not receive good retribution. If the enemy country is destroyed, the hero will die, and it is natural that he will die.

Due to being wounded by random arrows in the battle against Yuwen Xianbei, Murong Han stayed at home after returning to China and was bedridden for a long time. There is a famous saying "all the birds are flying, and the good bow is hidden", Murong Han could have taken this opportunity to keep pretending to be sick and save his life. But after the injury improved, Murong Han was ready to relax and move his muscles and bones, so he tried to ride a horse in the small courtyard of his home, and he jogged for hundreds of steps for three or five minutes. Then dismount, enter the room, and rest.

Murong Hao's meticulous work then reported this matter to Murong Hao, so this matter that was not a matter became a big deal: the report believed that Murong Han practiced riding in private because he wanted to rebel. Murong Hao admires, loves, and relies on Murong Han, but it is precisely because of this that there are too many fears in his heart. Just one Murong Ren has almost let him die without a place to be buried, if Murong Han also rebels, what kind of result should it be?

Murong Hao took the opportunity to kill Murong Han.

"Han suspects that he is running away, and the crime cannot be punished, and he can't use the bones to commission the thief's court, so he is guilty. Tianci Qu is sorrowful, the unscrupulous city dynasty, today's death, and Han's life. However, the reverse Hu crossed according to Shenzhou, the Central Plains was not appeased, Han Changke swore in his heart, he was determined to swallow the ugly, and he became the will of the first king, and Xie Shanhai was responsible. Don't want to be unsuccessful, there is no resentment, and your life is helpless! ”

The Central Plains has not been pacified, the world has not been unified, I still have such lofty ambitions that have not been realized, but today I am going to die, I hate Ruosi, and I can't do anything about it!

What makes people sigh is that heroes such as Murong Han are ashamed of their three rebellions against their masters, and the former Yan country thinks that he is an ominous person, and after the news of his death came out, the people in the country beat drums and gongs to celebrate.

Murong Han, a tragic hero who lives in exile and under surveillance, has a great mind, has good intentions, is brave and good at fighting, and everyone returns to their hearts, and he was born at the right time, he should have used all his talents in such a troubled world, but in the end, he died in a nest, just like his survival .......

He has made outstanding contributions to the rise and strength of the Murong Xianbei Tribe.
