On the battlefield of Bingzhou, the Liaodong Army defeated the Huns without the power to fight back, and the east and west fronts gradually showed an avalanche.

Even Liu Yao, who was good at fighting, was surrounded by Shao Yuniang, the commander of the Right Route Army, and could not move in Lishi due to insufficient troops, and Wei Shuo personally led the Left Route Army to take the entire Shangdang County, and it was possible to attack Pingyang City at any time.

As the situation became more and more unfavorable to the Xiongnu and Han States, the chiefs, leaders, and generals of the Qiang and Xianbei tribes who were originally subordinated to the Xiongnu and Han Kingdoms had other thoughts at this critical moment, such as Zhang Fulidu, the leader of Karasuma, Lu Zhuyan, the leader of Xianbei, the Beiqiang Wang, and Liang Fuqi, the general of Zhenyuan, all secretly sent envoys to Liaodong.

With Shan Zheng as an example, everyone is not worried about their lives after surrendering, the only thing they are worried about is that they can only be a rich man in the future, and they can't live a good life like before. Even so, in order to save their lives, the leaders of the Hu tribe still rushed to surrender to Liaodong.

In fact, it was not only the Qiang tribes who had different hearts, but as the situation gradually collapsed, there was also a split within the Xiongnu. One is the hardliners led by Liu Cong, Liu Yao, Liu Jing, Hu Yanyan, Hu Yanyu and other Han and Zhao nobles, all of whom have committed the great crime of slaughtering the Jin people, and they know that they have no chance of survival if they surrender, so they have to choose to resist to the end.

The other is the compromise faction led by Qiao Yu, Hu Yanmo and other local civil officials of Han and Zhao, this part of the Xiongnu nobles did not commit any major crimes, even if Liaodong wants revenge, they can't find them, but it is possible to see their lives in the face of their surrender.

Not long after the Liaodong Army surrounded Lishi, the elites of the Huyan family, such as Huyanyu, Huyanyan, Huyanmo, and Huyanaji, gathered together to discuss the way out of the Huyan family.

"Everyone, let's talk about it, where should my Huyan family go next?" Hu Yanyan, the head of the family, glanced at the brothers.

"Hehe, at this point, what can you do but die and the net is broken? Do you still want to surrender? ”

Hu Yanwei laughed bitterly a few times, and rolled his eyes a few times angrily. He was originally an unintentional sentence, but he didn't expect that the speaker had no intention and the listener had the intention. Hu Yanyan and Hu Yanmo glanced at each other, and the two of them understood. This Huyan family gathering was initiated by the head of the family, Hu Yanwei and Hu Yanmo, and its purpose was to unify the opinions of the children of the family and ask Liaodong to surrender.

Hu Yanwei found that no one around him echoed him, and he realized that the situation was not right. It is very likely that the family really has plans to ask Liaodong to surrender, and he is suddenly anxious. He was one of the main generals who followed Liu Yao to attack Luoyang, and Liaodong could not let him go no matter what.

"Family master, you don't really want to ask Liaodong to surrender, do you? Don't forget, you participated in the Battle of Luoyang back then, and Liaodong will never spare us! ”

Hu Yanyan smiled bitterly: "You said this, how can my brother not know? But you and I can't affect the entire family because of our own mistakes, the Huyan family finally has today's situation, if you and I are wiped out by the Liaodong Army. What will you and I look like in the future to see our fathers and fathers? ”

Hu Yanwei asked with a pale face: "Has the head of the family already been in contact with Liaodi?" ”

"Yes, the Huyan family got in touch with Liaodong long before the start of the war, as long as the Huyan family helps Liaodong take Lishi and capture Liu Yao, Liaodong will accept the Huyan family's surrender."

"What about me? Liaodong has no reason to spare an executioner like me! Hu Yanwei never believed that Liaodong only made this request.

"That's right, after surrendering, all the children of the Huyan family who participated in the Battle of Luoyang and the massacre of the Jin people will be brutally retaliated against by Liaodong, and you and I must wait for Liaodong to deal with it alive. If you dare to commit suicide without permission, Liaodong will tear up all agreements. Reclassify the Huyan family as a rebel! ”

"That'...... Then I don't know which child of my Huyan family is the lucky one who survived? Hu Yanwei's lips trembled.

"According to Liaodong's requirements, even if my Huyan family is surrendered to Liaodong in the future, only Hongnong Taishou Huyanmo will survive, and the rest of the children will not be able to escape Liaodong's punishment. I know that the family is doing this, which makes it very difficult for you, but don't forget. You are all children of the Huyan family, and you have the obligation to sacrifice everything for the family. ”

"When I die, Huyanmo will succeed as the head of the family, and the Huyan family will depend on you in the future! Remember never to think of yourself as a Hun again, and be a good Jinmin from today onwards. It's better to be a loyal servant! ”

Hu Yanyan repeatedly told Hu Yanmo, but he didn't know that his actions today gave birth to a world-famous Jiangmen family, and the Hu family will be famous in the world from now on.

In late March, the commander of the Right Route Army, Shao Yuniang, was on the verge of leaving the stone, and she did not rashly launch an attack. Many generals in the city have expressed their willingness to help the Liaodong Army take Lishi, and Shao Yuniang is waiting for news in the city.

When the sky was bright, a sturdy figure left the stone city gate and quickly ran towards the Jin army camp outside the city. Soon the Jin army outside the city received the news that the city gates had been opened.

"General, the army is ready, will it attack immediately?" Join the army and ask for instructions.

"Let's attack!" Shao Yuniang looked up at the sky and immediately gave the order to attack.

"Boom!" Nearly 100 ballistae bombarded the Lishi city wall fiercely, and stones the size of a grinding disc were thrown onto the city wall, smashing the hapless Hun defenders into pulp.

At the same time, a group of cavalry under the leadership of Hu Yanyu was walking towards Liu Yao's residence, their faces were solemn and serious. Earlier, Huyan Yan sent a message to him that the Huyan family had negotiated terms with Liaodong, as long as Huyanwei helped the Jin army take Lishi and capture Liu Yao, the Huyan family would be exempted from death except for the children who had participated in the Luoyang War.

Hu Yanwei knew that there was no reason to be spared, but he had to think about it for the Huyan family. As Hu Yanyan said, if he commits a crime, he must bear it alone, and the entire family must not be implicated.

Besides, Hu Yanmo has succeeded to the position of the head of the family, and will take on the responsibility of reviving the Hu Yan family in the future, and he Hu Yanwei can only become the one who was sacrificed.

At this time, Liu Yao, who had just received the news of the Jin army's siege, was in a hurry to command the defenders to resist, and he never expected that his henchmen would understand the betrayal.

"Quick, tell the soldiers that if you want to survive, you must block the Jin army, once the Jin army enters the city, everyone should not want to have a good life."

At this moment, "Da Da Da! There was a sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and I saw a large group of cavalry suddenly surround Liu Yao's mansion.

"Ahh Isn't this the cavalry of Huyanyu's department? Why is he not going to defend the city and running here? ”

Liu Yao couldn't figure out what Hu Yanyu meant for a while, thinking that there was some urgent military situation again, so he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Is General Hu Yan the Jin army breaking through the city?" ”

Seeing Liu Yao in person, although Hu Yanwei knew that what he was planning was foolproof, he still couldn't help but be worried and nervous.

He replied stubbornly: "King, the guards everywhere in the city have raised their flags to surrender, the Jin army has broken through the city gate, I am here to persuade the king to surrender." ”

"General Huyan, what are you doing here?! I, Liu Yao, have not treated you badly, do you want to betray the Han Kingdom? Don't forget, you are a Xiongnu nobleman, and you have broken through Luoyang and slaughtered many Jin people! Even if you surrender, it won't end well! Lonely advises you to get lost as soon as possible, as long as you sincerely repent, you are not to blame! ”

Liu Yao didn't expect his henchman general Hu Yanwei to rebel anyway, and his complexion suddenly changed greatly. It's a pity that his words couldn't persuade Hu Yanwei at all, and the participants in this operation were not only Hu Yanjia, but also a large number of Han generals such as Yin Che and Guo Yan.

"King, let me tell you the truth, now General Yin Che has opened the city gate to let the Jin army enter the city, and by this time, the main force of the Liaodong Army must have taken control of Lishi City. It's not that the minister doesn't know loyalty, it's really that the minister has to continue to think about the Yan family, Liaodong has promised to let the Huyan family have a way to live, and all the guilty ministers are born. ”

"What? Call...... The Huyan family has surrendered to Liaodong? ”

Liu Yao was shocked when he heard this, in addition to the royal surname Liu in the Xiongnu, the four surnames of Huyan, Bu, Lan, and Qiao were all first-class families in the Xiongnu and Han Kingdoms, and they held most of the power of the Han Kingdom. Among them, the ancestors of the Huyan family were born in the Xianbei people, but they were later turned into Xiongnu, and now as the situation in the Han Kingdom becomes more and more unfavorable, Huyanmo has planned to abandon the Xiongnu identity and re-choose the Xianbei identity.
