In the third year of Jianxing, in May, with the frequent mobilization of the Jin army in Liaodong, the situation in Youping suddenly became tense. Duan Mobo, who was entrenched in Liaoxi County, became more and more panicked, especially the Xianbei people who had participated in the Yishui tragedy back then, and they couldn't wait to find an opportunity to kill themselves.

In Yangle City, Duan Mobo frowned and looked at the secret letter in his hand silently.

In addition to Da Shan Yu, the entire big tent was surrounded by a large number of Duan clan generals and clan disciples such as Duan Qidu, Duan Ya, Duan Liao, Duan Quyun, Duan Qin, etc., who were either Duan Mobo's henchmen or supporters.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have just received a secret report from Murong Diao that a large number of elite Jin troops have appeared in the west and south of Changli, and there are signs that Liaodong will invade Changli County in the near future."

"Murong Diao couldn't stand it anymore and asked the Duan clan to send troops to help! Who would have thought that the Duan clan and Murong, who fought to the death a few years ago, would have to fight on the same front today! ”

"Of course, the Murong tribe is the mortal enemy of the Duan clan, but we must not watch Liaodong destroy Murong Diao! Once Changli is lost, Liaodong will form a three-sided attack with the Youzhou Jin army against Liaoxi. ”

After speaking, Duan Mobo looked at everyone with a worried face, hoping that someone would give him an idea, but unfortunately in the face of the Duan clan who had fallen into a desperate situation, everyone was completely helpless.

Just when everyone was speechless, they saw Duan Liao muttering and complaining: "Yes, in this way, the Duan clan is in danger!" Last year, Wei Shuo slaughtered tens of thousands of Duan clan people in Jicheng, and even swore in public to exterminate the Duan clan and Murong, the two culprits of the Yishui tragedy! I knew that there would be today, why did I have to do things in the first place, now good retribution is coming! ”

"Hey, Duan Liao, what do you mean by that?! You have a share of what happened back then! How? Do you want to be a good person again? Hum! You think that if you do this, Wei Shuo will let you go! Hum! Stop dreaming! ”

Seeing that Duan Liao was so unambitious, Duan Ya couldn't help but point at Duan Liao's nose and scold.

"Enough! What is the noise!? The Jin army hasn't fought yet?! What are you doing here? Yes! I actually messed up first! ”

Da Dan Yu Duan Mo Bo drank everyone to stop the noise. But looking at the depressed clan children in the big tent, I couldn't help but feel a little desperate in my heart. As Liaodong became stronger and stronger, the situation of the Duan clan became more and more bad, especially when the Duan clan caused a lot of evil in the Central Plains, completely blocking the possibility of their surrender to Wei Shuo.

Duan Mobo soothed his emotions and comforted everyone with a warm voice: "The Liaodong Army is certainly strong. However, the Duan clan was not without the strength to fight. Now the Duan clan can dispatch 40,000 cavalry, and if the Murong tribe is added, it can gather 100,000 elite cavalry! ”

"With 100,000 cavalry, even if you can't defeat Liaodong, at least you can defend yourself, right? Take 10,000 steps back, even if we are defeated in the end, it's a big deal that we will retreat to the depths of the grassland! Could it be that the Jin army could still run to the grassland to find trouble with the Duan clan? ”

"That's it, if you can't beat Liaodong, you can retreat to the grassland!"

"If you want me to say what else to fight! simply take advantage of the fact that Liaodong has not yet started the war, and directly flee to the desert north! ”

"It's still too late to leave, in case Murong Diao or Wei Shuo knows. It's hard to leave if you want to go! ”

"Besides, the Duan clan is all cavalry, and the Jin army will definitely not be able to intercept it, I think this strategy is feasible!"

"Anyway, the ancestors also lived on the prairie back then, and now that they have gone back, they can be regarded as returning to their hometown!"

I wanted to arouse the ambition of my subordinates, but I didn't expect Duan Mobo's words to backfire, and listening to the pessimistic remarks around him, he was completely desperate.

Duan Mobo roared at everyone with hatred: "Bastard. Are you just trying to escape?! Haven't you ever thought about fighting to the death with the Jin army? ”

Sure enough, after listening to Duan Mobo's words. A hint of horror flashed in the eyes of most of the Xianbei generals.

As the Duan clan's big Danyu, Duan Mobo didn't want the Duan clan's foundation to be destroyed in his own hands, he knew the importance of the next battle, if the battle was defeated, the entire Duan clan would fall into a place of no return.

Duan Mobo's face gloomily glanced at the Xianbei generals present, including his most important son Duan Qin, his brother Duan Ya, and Duan Caidu, but no one had the courage to stand up and say that they would fight to the death with the Jin army.

A look of disappointment flashed in his eyes. Duan Mobo couldn't help but sigh in his heart and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, although the front line has been very calm, judging from all indications, a big war will break out soon. The situation is not in our favour right now. But the Duan clan has no reason to retreat without a fight, please be prepared and be ready for a bloody battle with Liaodong at any time! ”

"Murong Diao asked the Duan clan to drag down the Youzhou Jin army, and never allow a single soldier to enter Pingzhou! At present, Murong Diao is mobilizing the main force and intends to fight to the death with the Jin army in Pingzhou. The harder the fight here, the greater the hope of the Murong tribe to win, and the more likely it is that the Xianbei Alliance will win the final victory! ”

"You've memorized them all for me! If anyone on the battlefield does not contribute to the work, let the Youzhou Jin army break through the defense line and enter Pingzhou, without waiting for Wei Shuo to clean up this order, he will be skinned alive first! ”

"Please rest assured, your subordinates will never dare to be half-hearted!"

Duan Mobo saw that everyone had sworn and made a guarantee, so he relaxed a little.

"Everyone, it's not that you are ruthless, you have to force everyone to fight hard with the Jin army! It is really that the situation has reached a point where there is no time to delay, and if you take a step back, the entire Duan tribe will be doomed! Therefore, for the sake of the Duan family, I hope you must go all out! ”

Under Duan Mobo's repeated encouragement, the Duan generals finally had some courage to fight the Jin army. Duan Mobo never expected that he had worked hard to ascend to the position of Da Dan Yu, but what was waiting for him was a nightmare life.

A few years ago, Duan's Xianbei could wantonly kidnap the Jin people, but since the Jicheng massacre, today's Duan's Xianbei is not to mention to harm the Jin people, that is, someone sent the Jin woman to the big tent of the Duan nobles, and the nobles not only did not dare to offend in the slightest, but also had to eat and drink to support them.

"Actually, you don't have to worry. Liaodong is certainly strong, but Murong Diao has mobilized 80,000 cavalry to prepare to attack Xiangping, as long as Murong Diao breaks through Xiangping and kills Wei Shuo, the whole situation may be reversed. ”

"Yes, what Da Dan Yu said is very true, although the overall strength of Liaodong is superior, but in terms of cavalry, it is far inferior to the Xianbei Alliance! As long as my Duan clan can contain the main force of Youzhou for a month, Murong Diao's 60,000 cavalry can sweep through Liaodong! At that time, Murong Diao will be able to sweep the entire Pingzhou with a big victory! Duan Qidu's eyes showed his eyes and he agreed.

Duan Mobo nodded with satisfaction at Duan Qidu, and said secretly: At a critical time, his own brother is reliable!

He continued to bewitch everyone: "Duan Qidu said it well, this Shan Yu firmly believes that the final victory must belong to the Duan clan. After the war is over in the future, this single will promise you: all meritorious officials will have the opportunity to tear the earth and seal the marquis. ”

Now that the Duan clan is in a difficult situation, Duan Mobo knows that he can't arouse everyone's fighting spirit without blood, otherwise how could tens of thousands of Xianbei cavalry with low morale beat the wolf-like Liaodong army.

"Please rest assured, we will let those cowardly and incompetent Han people know how powerful Duan's Xianbei is!"

"Good! You are worthy of being my Duan family's children, as long as everyone is united, we will be able to defeat Liaodong and regain the glory that belongs to the Xianbei people! ”

However, not everyone was bewitched by Duan Mobo, Duan Mobo's cousin Duan Liao didn't think so, since the defeat of Jicheng, Duan's Xianbei has lost his courage, and he is not the opponent of the Liaodong Army at all. In his opinion, even with Murong Diao's help, the Duan clan was not Liaodong's opponent, and he knew that he was invincible and insisted on fighting, he suspected that Duan Mobo's brain was in water!

It's just that the big war is imminent, and Duan Liao doesn't want people to know his thoughts, so he also follows the trend and says a few words of determination. In fact, secretly he had other thoughts early, but he didn't want to be buried in Liaoxi with Duan Mobo.

Duan Liao planned to take advantage of the expedition to flee directly to the desert with his direct tribes to Tuoba Xianbei. In his opinion, this is the best way to save the fate of the Duan clan, rather than fighting to the death with the Liaodong Army.

Duan Mobo, who was full of ambition, didn't know that the war had not yet started, and some people in the Duan clan had already thought of escaping, and this war was doomed from the beginning! (To be continued.) )
