p

Gao Hu, Zhang Pan and other ministers did not agree with the prince's proposal, but instead echoed King Zhao.

Murong Chui was noncommittal about this, he saw that Murong De had been frowning since the beginning of the court, as if he was thinking deeply, so he shouted.

"Fan Yang Wang ......"

Only then did Murong De come back to his senses and hurriedly bowed to the imperial brother to apologize.

Murong stroked his long beard and asked with a smile on his face, "What do you think of the discussion between Prince Shicai and King Zhao?" ”

"Brother Huang, according to the younger brother, what the prince and King Zhao said is reasonable."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was surprised and stared at him in unison.

Murong Chui on the dragon couch also put away his smile, couldn't help leaning forward, frowned and asked, "King Fan Yang, how do you say this?" ”

"As the prince said, the Northern Wei Dynasty tiger is in the north, and the heart of death will not die, which is really the trouble of Dayan's henchmen!"

"However, with the current Tuoba Jue under the command of tens of thousands of people with armor, his strength cannot be underestimated."

"And as King Zhao said, at the moment, Wei Naiyan is a friend, and it is not appropriate to turn his face with it in order to fight against Hexi."

"Therefore, the younger brother agreed with King Zhao's proposal and tried to make a truce with Hexi in order to concentrate his forces to recuperate."

"When the national strength rises, Your Majesty will lead the army to conquer the Northern Wei Dynasty again, and avenge the loss of Youzhou."

After Murong De finished speaking, Shi Shiran returned to his seat.

I saw that the faces of the people around me showed strange colors, and many people secretly pondered.

It is no wonder that this King Fan Yang has the best popularity and the highest prestige, and it really has something to do with his exquisite methods.

In a moment, Murong Chui's voice came from the dragon couch, breaking the silence in the main hall.

"For King Fan Yang's opinion, what do you think?"

Gao Hu, Zhang Pan and other civil and military cadres bowed their hands one after another: "Your Majesty, King Fan Yang's analysis is incisive, and Weichen agrees." ”

"Since you have no objections, then proceed accordingly."

……

At dawn, when the city gates opened, the ancient city of Gaodu seemed to wake up from a long dark night.

Slowly, there was also a flow of people on the street.

"Drive! Get out of the way, get out of the way! Urgent! Emergency military intelligence! ”

When the scout rode a fast horse to deliver the news that the Huguan army had been wiped out, Murong Kai's hands and feet were suddenly cold, and he collapsed in front of the bookcase for a while and couldn't move.

After being silent for half an hour, Murong Kai finally had a strong concentration, and his emotions gradually calmed down.

A shadow suddenly swept across his ruddy face, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "Huguan is in a dangerous terrain, and there are still 10,000 defenders in the city, how can it be lost?" ”

"And what about King Chen Liu? How is my brother? ”

The messenger sighed heavily, prostrate on the ground, did not dare to raise his head, and whispered: "King Chen Liuwang was unfortunately killed in battle, and all 10,000 defenders were annihilated......"

"You? What do you say? Say it again! With a sharp sound, Murong Kai stood up with a look of disbelief on his face.

"The little one doesn't dare to deceive the general, our army has been defeated, and King Chen Liuwang has been killed and martyred."

When there was a loud bang, Murong Kai smashed straight on the long case, his face was pale and pale, without a trace of blood.

When the soldiers on both sides saw that the main general had fainted, they couldn't help but be anxious, and shouted outside: "Quick, find a doctor quickly." ”

It took a full hour for Murong Kai to wake up from his coma, but fortunately, he was just angry and angry, and there was no big problem.

After waking up, Murong Kai was full of thoughts about how to avenge his brother.

But before he could make any move, a holy decree came from Zhongshan, asking him to immediately abandon the party and lead the army to withdraw to Hanoi.

Of course, Murong Kai was not happy, and even wanted to resist and disobey.

Fortunately, Murong Trai had expected it, and his words were extremely harsh, and it happened that at this time, the Jin army suddenly crossed the river to the north in a big way, and there were faint signs of plotting against Hanoi.

Murong Kai was scared into a cold sweat, and he also realized that if he was stubborn, he was likely to follow in the footsteps of his brother Murong Shao.

So, under heavy internal and external pressure, Murong Kai had no choice but to withdraw from the party with hatred and return to Hanoi from Taihang.

As soon as Murong Kai withdrew, he immediately put Murong Yong in danger.

Facing the Hexi army surrounded from all directions, Xiyan was in a panic all day, so he could only sit in the eldest son and wait for the final fate to come.

……

When Houyan was anxious to get out of the quagmire of Shangdang, Tuoba Jue also received the news that Hexi would take all the prefectures.

Tuoba Jue has always been aware of the changes in the situation in Bingzhou, and he ordered the Wei army to go south to Yanmen Pass long before.

I didn't expect that the Hexi army was too powerful, and it resisted the alliance of the three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Yan, and now he could only watch Hexi's strength skyrocket and be annoyed.

I knew that Xiyan was so vulnerable, I should have started before Hexi, and now I have cheapened Hexi.

However, Tuoba Jue is just a mouthful.

He sees it clearly, and the state is a strategic place, and whoever wants to get involved in it will be boycotted by the surrounding forces.

This is the case with Houyan, and the same is true with Hexi, even if it is replaced by the Northern Wei Dynasty.

It's just that Houyan's strength was insufficient, and he did not resist the joint attack of Hexi and Northern Wei, and finally lost in the battle of Taibi, resulting in a failure.

On the contrary, Hexi, with its own strength, faced the alliance of the three kingdoms of Qin, Wei and Yan, and fought a bloody way, and was about to merge the state into the bag.

Sometimes Tuoba Jue really can't understand why Wei Shuo can always see opportunities that others can't see every time.

Whether it was the attack on Shuofang in the past, or the eastward entry into the annexation of the state today, there were huge risks like taking chestnuts in the fire, but every time Hexi could tide over the difficulties without danger.

Now, with the Hexi Army achieving a series of military victories in Bingzhou, the Northern Wei Dynasty has become restless again.

Tuoba would rather let the state fall into the hands of Later Qin Yaoxing than watch Wei Shuo recover the state.

Because that meant that the Northern Wei Dynasty would face a powerful enemy, and this enemy could end the Northern Wei Dynasty's dream of unifying the world.

In order to cope with the changes, Tuoba Jue deliberately brought his subordinates together to discuss countermeasures.

"Ladies and gentlemen, now that the Hexi Army has won successive battles and has occupied most of the annexed states, Murong Yongye has retreated to the corner of his eldest son, and Xiyan is about to perish."

"Once the state belongs to Hexi, our Great Wei will face threats from both the southwest and west of Hexi, and the pressure will double."

"I wonder if you have a plan to teach me to solve my current predicament?"

As soon as Tuoba's words fell, Tuobalie, who had always been known for being tough on Hexi, couldn't wait to say that he would send troops to the south.

Speaking of which, he was always dissatisfied with the delay of the Northern Wei Dynasty in launching an all-out war with Hexi.

In his opinion, the Northern Wei Dynasty should take advantage of the fact that Hexi was not very strong, and unite with Hou Yan and Hou Qin to destroy Hexi in one fell swoop to prevent future troubles.

It's a pity that his move became reckless and brainless in the eyes of Tuoba, and he couldn't be compared with Tuoba Yi who had died in battle.

"General Tuoba has commendable courage, but the soldiers, the major affairs of the country, the place of death and life, and the way of survival, must not be overlooked. Don't rush into anything! ”

In the face of other people's accusations, the young and vigorous Tuoba Lie was about to refute, but he saw Tuoba suddenly speak: "Okay, don't be harsh, General Tuoba is young, and it is natural that he is not thoughtful!" ”

"It's just that now that Hexi has taken over and merged with the state, the country is facing a huge threat, how can you not ask and ignore it?"

"The king is not unwilling to offer advice, but the general trend is like this, and it is irretrievable!"

"Unless the king is willing to abandon everything and start an all-out war with Hexi, there is nothing we can do but let Hexi annex and annex the state."

"The words of long history, of course, are reasonable, but they ...... It's just that the widow is still unwilling in his heart. ”

"It took a lot of effort for the widow to capture Youzhou, why did Hexi occupy the state without saying a word?"

"The king is worried, in fact, if you really want to talk about it, the strength of Hexi and the Northern Wei Dynasty is generally the same, and no one is worse than the other."

"And the situation faced by the two countries is similar, Hexi has the trouble of Later Qin, and the Northern Wei also has the disease of Later Yan."

"Next, let's see who can take the first step to eliminate the trouble of henchmen, so that whoever will occupy the initiative in the great cause of reunification."

"Aha, the long history mentioned Hou Qin, and the widow remembered that Yao Xing had sent an envoy for help a few days ago."

"So far, the widow has not replied, I wonder what you think about this?"

"King, Hou Qin is not saved! Having lost Hedong and Pingyang, Houqin has been blocked in Guanzhong. ”

"Huh? Didn't you just say ......"

"Great King, at the moment, Great Wei should not think about saving Hou Qin, but should use the last bit of value of Hou Qin to delay the capture of Guanzhong in Hexi."

"Otherwise, when Hexi takes Guanzhong, and the king has not yet occupied Hebei, I am afraid that there will be no chance to prevent Hexi from unifying the north."

"The Northern Wei Dynasty and Hexi are like two people in a race, whoever wins Guanzhong or Hebei first will have the upper hand."
