Chapter 63: The Mastiff
"Therefore, with the meaning of Gongzi's words, he plans to take advantage of Murong Ling and Xianbei Elite to return to the west, take advantage of the emptiness of Liaodong, dispatch Fangxian and dangerous soldiers, attack Changli, seize the subject country of Liaodong, and think it is the foundation, right?"
Zhuge Dan just lowered his head and looked at the map in front of him intently, although he asked the exit, but he didn't look at Li Cheng at all. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Murong Ling originally planned to use the subject country of Liaodong as his foundation, if so, I am really not sure that I will be able to defeat the Xianbei Jingqi with the new soldiers of the Han Dynasty. And now he is leaving with his troops, this is a golden opportunity! If it is not seized this time, when the stable situation returns, I am afraid that it will be difficult to take the subject state of Liaodong so easily in three or five years. ”
Li Cheng clenched his fists and slammed them hard, showing an extremely resolute will.
However, Zhuge Dan shook his head indifferently.
"If the situation in the north is really as Childe said, then Childe's move can only succeed for a while. And the consequences, I am afraid that within ten years, it will be difficult to get out of Youzhou. ”
"Hmph, don't think that alarmism can make you look extraordinary. Under Childe, talk and do things, and persuade you to be realistic. ”
Xiahou Ba couldn't see it, and couldn't help but snort coldly.
Zhuge Dan glanced at Xiahou Ba expressionlessly, and quickly retracted his gaze, as if there was no such person at all, and continued to take care of himself: "Since ancient times, I have only heard that even the weak resist the strong and can be long-lasting, and I have not heard of helping the strong to bully the weak and can survive alone. Northern Yan is weak, and Northern Wei is strong, in the words of Gongzi, it is extremely difficult for Murong Chui and his son to win. If there is another change in Liaodong, the Northern Yan court is shaken, so that the front line collapses for thousands of miles, and the Northern Wei Dynasty dominates Hebei, dare to ask under such an emerging behemoth, even if Gongzi occupies Liaodong, how will he swallow a country with one county? ”
Seeing Li Cheng's shocked appearance, Zhuge Dan continued without relaxation: "Today, the heroes are competing for the king, like a group of beasts fighting for the king, devouring each other. Childe has the help of an artifact, and he already has the qualifications of the king of beasts, but he is still young and cannot exert his strength. And if the larvae want to grow up, they should first eat the roe deer rabbit and strengthen their body; The strength is slightly longer, the body is successful, and then the roe deer is eaten; When the minions are finally formed, they can hunt cattle and sheep; After years of training, when you feel that you have the demeanor of a king, you can fight bears and leopards, defeat the heroes in one fell swoop, and lay an immortal foundation! ”
"Dangerous, Fang County, the roe deer rabbit of the son; Liaodong vassal country, the deer of the son; Beiyan Youzhou, the cattle and sheep of the son. Among them, the relationship is progressive, not jumpable, and indispensable. This roe deer is actually in the pocket of the child, why should the son be in a hurry? On the contrary, it is this cow and sheep, Gongzi must not make it eaten by bears and leopards in the Northern Wei Dynasty, otherwise this key link in growth is missing, Gongzi can only learn to hunt and eat roe deer, how can he compete with bears and leopards? ”
Li Cheng stood for a moment, and solemnly bowed his hand: "The words of public leave made me pause, the previous plan was indeed too anxious, I only saw the present, but did not see the longer term." ”
Zhuge Dan accepted this gift unceremoniously, and reprimanded: "There is still the heroic soul of Lu Ziming of Eastern Wu in the artifact, even if it is not below, as long as the prince asks humbly, he should get the same answer." I'm afraid that Gongzi is anxious in his heart, so he didn't discuss it at all, right? ”
Li Cheng bowed his head.
Hearing the news that Murong Ling was leaving, the joy that had been suppressed for too long made him lose his sanity and caution, and he only had the obsession of not wanting to return to such a life, which was constantly causing trouble, pushing him to urgently occupy this land.
Zhuge Dan is not a rigid teacher, reprimanding to a certain point, the effect is achieved, and it is enough.
In fact, for Zhuge Dan, who has been persuaded by Li Cheng, how can he not be eager to prove himself as soon as possible in this new world?
has only experienced the ups and downs of life, and experienced defeat after a hasty uprising, and his conceit and pride have added a lot of caution and thoroughness.
"However, although Gongzi can't seize the counties of Liaodong at this time, it's not that he can't do something."
Zhuge smiled self-consciously.
Wei Deqi's dog, this praise is not false.
"Childe can't rebel against Beiyan, but he can put pressure on Beiyan; Childe cannot occupy the land of the county, but he can legitimately lead the soldiers of a county. It is also a good choice to eat a few more roe deer rabbits before hunting roe deer. ”
…………
In April, in the early summer season, on the land of Youzhou, it was too late to show the warmth of "summer". However, all the high-level officials of Beiyan were trembling at sunset and dusk every day, sweating and sweaty, waiting for the routine report from Guangyang City and King Wu's camp.
Even though Beiyan's response was fast enough, the depth of Beiyan's territory was so small that Murong Chui's reinforcements quickly rushed to the front line. However, the offensive of the Northern Wei army was like a storm, and in just half a decade, almost the entire Zhuo County was taken.
As Murong Chui expected, after the Northern Wei Dynasty took Zhuo County, it divided two troops and horses to protect the flanks, and the remaining main force approached Guangyang non-stop!
Even if Murong Chui had already settled in Guangyang one step ahead of the Northern Wei Dynasty, but in Jicheng, the capital of Northern Yan, in those few days, I don't know how many noble ministers quietly packed up their jewelry business, and as soon as the news of the fall of Guangyang came, they could immediately escape from the city under the protection of private soldiers.
Fortunately, Murong Chui was worthy of the name of the general, and under the order of danger, he used 60,000 soldiers in Guangyang City to block the crazy attack of the 130,000 army of the veteran general Da Xijin of the Northern Wei Dynasty.
However, only those who are really in Guangyang City know how much effort and effort is required for such stability.
With a tooth-souring "crunching" sound, the suspension bridge at the north gate of Guangyang City was slowly lowered, and the heralds who were fixed at this time every day were sent to the capital at this time, and under the orange and red light of the setting sun, they beat their horses and galloped away.
"Ling'er, is there any problem with the defense of the north of the city?"
Murong Ling, who was standing against the wall, was looking at the herald soldiers in the distance in a daze, and suddenly heard the question behind him, and hurriedly turned around and gave a military salute: "Beicheng Defense, everything is normal, please rest assured father." ”
After Murong Ling finished speaking, he didn't have time to take a closer look at Murong Chui, his battle armor was dull, and his face was full of tiredness. His eyes swept to both sides, and there were even a few obvious dark red pieces on the corners of the battle skirts and robes of several guards.
"Father, outside the north of the city are some bluffing Northern Wei weak pawns, ordinary generals can guard it properly, and ask my father to transfer me to the south of the city to fight the enemy together with my father!"
"It's not time yet."
Murong Chui said lightly, but there was no doubt.
On weekdays, Murong Chui is a very talkative father and boss, and even sometimes hesitant and indecisive. But as long as he is on the battlefield, as long as he makes a decision, there is no room for maneuver.
In many ways, Murong Ling would discuss with the son he valued the most, but Murong Ling knew that such a discussion did not include now.
"Liaodong, I think you've already heard about it. As General Zhendong, what do you think of this news. ”
Murong Ling's face tightened, he thought for a moment, and said cautiously: "The Goguryeo clan is naturally bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, and the battle two years ago did not damage the main force. This time the Northern Wei Dynasty attacked, Goguryeo felt that it had an opportunity to send troops to harass and tempt, which was indeed reasonable. ”
"In that battle, it was a pity that the main force of Goguryeo could not be annihilated in one fell swoop. But from that point of view, it was impossible to do better. ”
After Murong Chui commented, his brows frowned slightly: "What I'm worried about is that the powerful people in the DPRK and China have become frightened birds, and even if the matter of Goguryeo is thousands of miles away, I am worried in my heart." If there is any change in the north, I am afraid that my Dayan will collapse without a fight. ”
Murong Ling was about to speak, but Murong Chui had already interrupted with his hand raised, then walked to the city wall, stroked the wall bricks with his hand, and said from afar: "I know better than you how much Kugou is capable of, Ling'er, you don't have to comfort you." Even his personal guards are mostly eagle lackeys, and they are not of great use. But the generals you are talking about......"
Murong Chui grabbed the right hand of the wall tiles, tightened it several times, and said with a little hesitation: "Ling'er, those Han generals, are they really reliable?" ”
Murong Ling immediately gave up his hand confidently: "Those Han generals may not be very strong in ability, and they can't even find a county scholar to evaluate." But as a subordinate, it is very handy. This time, the danger of reporting the military situation and the general of Fang County at the same time were not subordinate to each other; And the generals of the two counties and the guards of Changli and Fuli, each have a gap between defections, divide and dissolve, and then lure them with high-ranking officials, so I don't have to worry about not being used by me! ”
Murong Chui slapped hard against the wall tiles: "Since that's the case, let them do it!" As long as you can repel Goguryeo, as long as you can win the news, it will be enough to calm down the court. I don't believe it, those Han people have no high talents, no heroes, so they dare to gather people to seize a county? What if you take it? But ......"
Murong Chui suddenly sighed: "In terms of tactics, this battle should have been delayed for a long time, and it is the most advantageous in the battle situation. It's just that under the internal and external difficulties of my Dayan, it is difficult to bear such suffering. The Goguryeo incident is a warning. Now it seems that some sacrifices may be inevitable......"
