(Today's three watches, there will be a chapter later)

In less than ten days, the Jin army launched a fierce attack on Liaoxi County from the north, west, and east.

In the face of the Jin army's surprise attack, the Xianbei people were unable to organize effective resistance at all, first Haiyang and then Lingzhi, and finally Duan Mobo had to retreat to Yangle with the remnants.

And Duan Liao, who was bent on retreating to the prairie, never found a chance, the blockade of the Jin army was too tight, and they simply planned to let go of a Duan Xianbei person.

During this period, Mobo also sent people to ask Murong Diao for help, but unfortunately the loss of Linyu Town had made him lose contact with Murong Diao.

In fact, Duan Mobo didn't know that even if he received Duan's request for help, it would be impossible for Murong Diao to send reinforcements, and now the situation facing Changli was not much easier than that of Liaoxi.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Liaodong Naval Division has frequently appeared in the southern waters of Changli recently, so that we have to mobilize more than 10,000 cavalry to disperse along the coast in case of a surprise attack by the Jin Army's Naval Division!"

Murong Diao was frightened by the Liaodong Navy's sneak attack on Linyu Town, for fear that the Jin army would carry out the same landing behind enemy lines for the Murong tribe.

"Alas! No one expected that the always inconspicuous sailors would play such a huge role, and Liaodong only used a hundred warships to contain more than 10,000 cavalry, and it also greatly increased the pressure on Changli's defense! ”

The Liaodong Sailor made the elite children of the Murong family very depressed, and in the face of the elusive amphibious attack, even if the Murong children were geniuses, they could only be helpless.

"The Liaodong Army is fighting steadily, and its main force has advanced to the east bank of the Daliao River, across the river from our army. If you don't want to find a way to divide it and eliminate it, when the Jin army on the western road solves the Duan clan in Liaoxi and then moves eastward, our army will definitely be defeated! ”

Murong Diao asked with a gloomy face, "Tell me what to do next?" ”

"Wei Shuo is very cautious, he does not take the enemy lightly at all, and our army has not found a chance to take advantage of it for several days! For today's plan, I am afraid that the only way to do this is to concentrate the main force and fight to the death with the Jin army! The eldest son, Murong Han, replied with some bitterness.

"Damn Wei Shuo. Damn Duan Mobo, damn it, damn it! ”

In addition to venting his emotions, Murong Diao did not forget to arrange the war, "Han'er, you go and mobilize the entire tribe immediately." Let all those who can afford to take weapons get on their horses and prepare to fight to the death with the Jin army. ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, there is no way back for us now, and only by fighting to the death can we win a glimmer of life for our people. Ben Shan Yu firmly believes that the final victory must belong to the Murong tribe! ”

"Da Shan Yu, since the Jin army is pressing forward step by step and wants to swallow the entire Murong tribe in one bite, it is better to fight them to the death directly! We must not let those Jin people look down on my Murong son, father, please allow your son to lead the army to battle. Fight the Jin army. ”

Among the sons under Murong Diao's knees, only the eldest son, Murong Han, is the most civil and military, and he has high hopes. Seeing that he took the initiative to ask for battle, he couldn't help but feel very gratified.

"Han'er is brave, this single Yu is very pleased! I will appoint you to be the vanguard of this battle and unify the 10,000 cavalry to enter the front line of the Liaohe River! But you must remember that you must not attack without my orders. Your mission is to monitor the movements of the Jin army on the other side and report to me at any time! ”

"This time the Jin army is attacking in a big way, for the entire tribe. It's a life-or-death battle! Whether the Murong family can survive after the war, and whether they can continue to live in the warm and humid Liaohe Plain, will depend on whether they can defeat the enemy in front of them in this battle! ”

"In addition, in order to prevent the Jin army on the West Road from going north to copy my back road, I ordered Murong Hao to lead 10,000 soldiers to garrison the Great Thorn City!"

"I hope you must work together and sacrifice everything for the glory of the Murong family!"

"We will defend the Murong family to the death!"

In order to give full play to the advantages of the Xianbei cavalry. Murong Diao placed the decisive battle on the flat Liaohe Plain, and took advantage of the only cavalry advantage of the Murong tribe to gather and annihilate the Jin army in one fell swoop!

"Instead of dying, it's better to have a vigorous fight! Since the Jin army wants to fight, then we will have a real decisive battle with them! Ordered the defenders of Da Thorn City, Changli, Bintu, and Liucheng. Except for a small number of soldiers left, the rest of the main forces were all ready to attack, and all of them left for the west bank of the Liao River five days later! ”

"Obey, Da Danyu!" The Xianbei people present will rise and bow to the ground.

With Murong Diao's order, the entire territory of Changli was quickly mobilized, and soldiers and horses from all over the country were mobilized and assembled to the front line of the Liao River in the east. The Murong tribe is worthy of being an extremely powerful force in Liaodong, and even without the support of the Duan clan, it still gathered 80,000 cavalry.

In Murong Diao's marching tent, Murong Diao, Murong Han, Murong Ren and other Xianbei generals gathered together to discuss the next course of action.

"Da Danyu, now that the enemy and us are facing each other across the river, how should our army induce the Jin army to cross the Liao River?"

"Wei Shuo is familiar with the art of war, and he has won every battle since he started the army, how could he not know the danger of being attacked in Bandu? If it were him, he would not have crossed the river under the watchful eye of the enemy. ”

Speaking of this, Murong Diao stood up and walked to the map, pointed to the Great Thorn City and said: "Even I suspect that the Jin army on the other side is waiting for the news of the Jin army on the West Road, once the Jin army on the West Road has eliminated the Duan clan in Western Liao, the whole army will go north to the Great Thorn City and cut off the back road of our army. ”

"What?!" Murong Han and Murong Ren's faces changed drastically when they heard this, they didn't expect that the Jin army would hide such evil intentions.

"So what are we going to do? You can't sit still, can you? ”

Murong Diao's brows furrowed, and he was thinking of a way to break the situation. Everyone didn't dare to disturb, and they all used their brains to see what method could be used to attract the Jin army on the opposite side to the west bank of the Liao River.

I don't know how long it took, but I saw the third son, Murong Ren, stand up and say fiercely: "Da Danyu, why don't we arrest all the Jin people in Changli, and then threaten the Jin army with this?" ”

"No! This plan is too vicious, even if it succeeds, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not bring any trouble to the Murong family in the future! ”

Without waiting for Murong Diao to express his position, the eldest son Murong Han vetoed Murong Ren's suggestion. This is the influence brought by Jicheng's slaughter, if it weren't for everything that happened in Jicheng, it would be difficult to ensure that the people would not do this, but now they can only think about it.

Murong Diao was still a little moved at first, but when he thought of Wei Shuo, he had to press this thought.

Murong Ren muttered with a little unconvincing on his face: "It's all come to this point, do you need to be scruples about this and that?" ”

Murong Han glared at his younger brother and retorted, "What do you know?!" It's easy to lose the hearts of the people, but it's hard to win the hearts of the people! After several years of operation, it was not easy to win the support of the Changli Jin people, and you will force the Jin people to rebel if you mess around like this! ”

"The war hasn't started yet, but you have forced your own people to rebel first, isn't this to force the Murong tribe to a dead end?"

"Well, Han'er is right, this battle is not only related to the life and death of the tribe, but also a key battle with Liaodong for the dominance of Youping and Youping. In the future, you still need to rely on those Jin people, and you can't be persecuted deeply. ”

"Big order is wise!"

"But if you don't do this, how can you lure the Jin army to fight me as soon as possible?" Murong Ren said angrily.

"Erchen thought of a plan, but I don't know if it will work?"

"Oh? Hurry up! Murong Diao's spirit was shocked, and his eyes stared at his most important son.

"Da Danyu, I think we can make a sign of retreating north to the grassland, so as to induce the Jin army to fight a decisive battle with me."

"Retreating to the Grassland ...... the North"

Murong Diao touched his chin and muttered to himself, pondered carefully for a while, and felt that the strategy proposed by Murong Han was very operable. Since Wei Shuo put on such a big formation, he must have the ambition to completely annihilate the Xianbei people, and he must not want the Murong tribe to flee without a fight.

If the Murong tribe is allowed to flee to the grassland, although Wei Shuo can easily recover Changli, it will leave a hidden danger for the border defense in the future, and its north will never be peaceful, and every year it will have to worry about being invaded by the Xianbei people.

Murong Diao believed that with Wei Shuo's eloquence, once he knew that the Murong tribe had signs of fleeing north, he would definitely no longer be able to sit on the east bank of the Liao River, and would immediately raise a large army to pursue him.

"Good! Han'er's plan is wonderful! ”

Sure enough, within a few days, the Murong cavalry, which was still gathered on the west bank of the Liao River, set up camp one after another, which suddenly alarmed the Jin army on the other bank, and it didn't take much effort for Wei Shuo to learn that the Murong tribe planned to flee north to the grassland.
