Chapter Seventy-Two: A Strategy to Break the Enemy

In Jiankang City, there were many casualties of soldiers every day, and many people in the DPRK and China, such as Shangshu Zuo Servant Meng Chang, Qingzhou Assassin Zhuge Changmin and others advocated moving the capital to Jiangbei to avoid the enemy's front.

All of a sudden, the DPRK and China were divided into two major factions, one faction advocated moving the capital to Jiangbei; The other faction advocated defending the city and ordered all parts of the country to enter the king of Beijing.

Lu Dun, a rebel army who did not look at each other squarely, occupied Lingnan for only a few years, and now he has made the Jin court jump.

Liu Yu naturally refused to retreat to Jiangbei, and now he returned to the dynasty with the prestige of destroying the country, if he also retreated to Jiangbei, it would be detrimental to his prestige, so Liu Yu resolutely opposed moving the capital to Jiangbei.

"Childe, I heard outside that Lu Dun's army was attacking the city day and night, and the corpses under the city wall were piled up more than one person high, which was really tragic." Han Qian followed behind Li Yan and whispered as he looked at the sergeants in front of him who kept patrolling back and forth.

"The victory of every war is made with people, and one will be a success. Now that the army of the Northern Expedition to Yan is returning to Jiankang, Lu Dun must also understand this, in order to achieve a quick victory. If it drags on for a long time, Lu Dun's army will collapse without a fight once there is not enough food and grass. Li Yan stopped, sat on the stone bench next to him and said in a cold voice.

"Childe is reasonable, fortunately, my blood wolf guard was arranged in the city to assist in defending the imperial city, otherwise Lu Dun's army will take turns to attack the city, and it will be a heavy loss." Han Qian instructed the Blood Wolf Wei behind him to rest on the spot, sat next to Li Yan and said.

Wei Liang stepped forward and muttered, "It's really unlucky, it's too bad for Lu to rebel, but to attack Jiankang when we are going to the Jin Kingdom." ”

"Haha! If you want me to say that this Lu Dun also has a bit of a brain, when Huan Xuan was in turmoil, Lu Dun was beaten and fled. After hiding in Lingnan and licking his wounds in Guangzhou, Lu Dun should have understood that there might be a way to survive when Liu Yu sent troops north to the north when he was in the Yan Kingdom. Otherwise, once Liu Yu kills Yan, he will turn his head and clean him up. It's just that Lu Dun really didn't expect Liu Yu to destroy the Yan Kingdom in less than a year. Li Yan laughed.

"You want me to see it. As long as our brothers can not go up to defend the city, there will be no chariot general Liu Yu to fight and die outside. Why should we worry about others? "Han Qian knew that Li Yan had offended Liu Yu's righteous son, and if the Blood Wolf Guard was under Liu Yu's command, he would be slaughtered by others, so he didn't have a good image of Liu Yu.

"That's it! General Han was right. It is said that after Liu Yu returned to Beijing, he firmly grasped the military power in his hands, and the Son of Heaven wanted to crown him as a captain, but he refused. In my opinion, this Liu Yu is not much different from Huan Xuan and the like. Wei Liang also echoed.

When Li Yan heard this, he immediately gave Wei Liang a burst, "What are you talking about?" Beware of woe from the mouth! ”

From time to time, sergeants passed by on this street, and Li Yan was also worried that he would be heard by someone with a heart.

"General, my subordinates know that they are wrong." Wei Liang also realized his recklessness, this is Jiankang City, more than eighty percent of the soldiers and horses are under the jurisdiction of Liu Yu, and only Sima Dewen, the king of Langya, leads a part of the soldiers and horses to guard the imperial city.

"That's it! Pay attention in the future, don't be arrogant, just know some things in your heart. Li Yan saw Wei Liang lowering his head, so he didn't blame him.

"Childe, someone is coming." Han Qian said in a low voice.

Hear the words. Li Yan looked up and looked ahead, a general in Mingguang armor, with more than a dozen guards behind him, was walking towards Li Yan and the others, and then got up and watched the people getting closer and closer.

"I am Wang Ben, the general of the military guard under the command of King Langya, who is Li Yan?"

The general in armor came to Li Yan and the others, glanced at them, and asked in an unbelievable voice.

"Under Li Yan, dare to ask General Wang what he commanded?" Li Yan said with his fists clenched.

"The prince is invited, come with me." After Wang Ben finished speaking, he walked forward without looking back.

Han Qian didn't know why King Langya summoned Li Yan, and asked a little worriedly, "Childe, I'll go with you." ”

"Not necessarily. If there is something more than one person will help, wait here. Li Yan waved his hand, since it was a summons, at least there should be no danger to his life.

Wang Ben led Li Yan through the street and stopped in front of a palace near the imperial city.

"Let's go inside. Someone will lead you to the king. Wang Ben looked at the palace, turned to Li Yan and said.

"Good! Thank you, General Wang. ”

After Li Yan stepped into the palace, someone led him inside. All kinds of strange flowers and plants, craggy and strange stones can be seen everywhere in the house, and you can see the green bamboo swaying in the rockery through the winding and quiet path.

"The prince is in the pavilion, General Li will go over by himself." The subordinate looked at the pavilion by the lake in front of him, turned to Li Yan and said.

Li Yan calmed down, and then strode forward towards the pavilion by the lake. In the pavilion, four jade pillars are carved with exquisite patterns, and a man in a brocade robe sits leisurely in the pavilion, watching the fish in the lake compete for food. This person is Sima Dewen, the younger brother of Emperor Sima Dezong of the Jin Dynasty.

"Li Yan pays a visit to the prince." Li Yan stepped forward and saluted.

"Oh? General Lee is here. Have a seat. Sima Dewen pointed to the jade stool in front of him and said with a smile.

"Thank you, Lord Wang. I don't know what the prince is summoning next? Li Yan was a little apprehensive in his heart, and asked with a salute to Sima Dewen.

After Sima Dewen saw Li Yan sit down, he fed the fish in the lake alone. Li Yan was left to the side, and sitting on the jade stool felt like sitting on pins and needles.

After a long while, Sima Dewen's deep voice came: "General Li, this king heard that Lord Meng said that you are brave and good at fighting in Xiliang, and you have killed the Huns in a river of blood, but can you be terrified?" ”

"Lord Qiyu, Lord Meng is too overestimated in his ability, Li Yan really doesn't dare to be." Li Yan got up and said.

Sima Dewen waved his hand, motioned for Li Yan to sit down, and then said, "Hehe." General Lee was too modest. It is unbelievable to hear that General Li has defeated the Xiongnu army several times in less than a year in Xihai County, and that the famous Xiongnu generals Zang Mozi and Fuqu who have been on the battlefield for many years have been defeated by you for a hundred years. ”

"Lord Wang, these are just flukes, thanks to the soldiers' lives and the blessing of God, otherwise Li Yandu will not be able to win."

"General Li only led fifty guards, thousands of miles from Jiuquan to Jiankang, along the way to pass through the areas controlled by the Huns, Xianbei and Qiang, and arrived safely.

"The prince has a good reputation."

"General Li, now that the thieves are besieging Jiankang, in your opinion, what is the best way to break the enemy?"

"Lord Qiqi, there is a general of the chariot to ensure that Jiankang is safe, and the prince does not have to worry."

"General Li, what do you think?"

"Lord Qiyu, such a major military event Li Yan really doesn't dare to say anything about it, and talk about a strategy to break the enemy. Please forgive the king. ”
