One day in late April, when the dawn sun shone on Jinyang City, the capital of the Xiongnu and Han Kingdoms seemed to wake up from a long night's sleep. Slowly, the gates opened, and there was a flow of people on the streets. Most of these people were Huns, and many Han Chinese had already fled to other places.

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

Suddenly, a group of cavalry rushed towards Jinyang City quickly, and the soldiers guarding the city gate thought that the enemy was coming, and when they were about to intercept them, they heard them shouting about the urgent military situation. Suddenly, they did not dare to intercept them, but drove away the crowd that had crowded at the city gate. In ancient times, anyone who delayed military intelligence at any time was killed, and no one could afford such a responsibility.

The cavalry was the Xiongnu herald who rushed back from Yanmen County to report the news, and they were a group of more than a dozen people, each with two war horses, and after running for two days and two nights, they finally arrived at Jinyang City this morning.

With the assistance of the soldiers defending the city of Jinyang, the herald soldiers entered the city of Jinyang unimpeded. Luckily, it was morning and there weren't many people on the streets, but even so. This sudden group of cavalry galloped through the streets, causing a sudden rush of chickens and dogs.

However, they transmitted military information, and those who were hit or bunks did not dare to have the slightest complaint, nor did they dare to block the transmission of military information. When this group of cavalry arrived at Jinyang Palace, the streets were already in shambles. There are broken bunks and injured pedestrians everywhere. However, they can only consider themselves unlucky.

"Report, urgent military intelligence!" Came to the gate of Jinyang Palace. The cavalry immediately dismounted.

"Come with me, and immediately go and tell the Great Khan!" As soon as the guards of Jinyang Palace took over the horse rope of the person, everyone did not dare to slack off, and immediately led a soldier who reported the news into Jinyang Palace.

At this time, Liu Yuan was having breakfast, because of the recent military emergency, coupled with the irregular diet, he was a little angry, and the corners of his mouth were foaming. At the table, there were only him and his uncle Liu Xuan. It can be said that Liu Yuan can achieve today's achievements, and his uncle has helped him a lot.

"Uncle, is there really no other way? Alas. watched the Jin army approach Taiyuan County step by step. Now Yao'er is surrounded by the Jin army in Xihe Lishi, but I have no choice. At the beginning, Cong'er was defeated and captured (but he was quite good at putting gold on his face) I couldn't rescue him, and this time I had to rescue Yao'er no matter what. Liu Yuan was eating breakfast while drinking Liu Xuan and talking.

Liu Yuan once asked Liu Yao to withdraw to Taiyuan County as soon as possible. However, the results were not satisfactory. Before Liu Yao started to move. Gou Xi took the first step to surround him in Xihe Lishi, unable to move. Liu Yuan also knew that with Liu Yao's strength alone, he would definitely not be able to compete with the Jin army. However, he also knew that the strength of Taiyuan County was not strong. didn't dare to confront the Jin army, he could only watch the Jin army eat Liu Yao's department step by step. Because of this, Liu Yuan was in a very bad mood for the past two days and kept getting angry.

"Great Khan, if you want to break the threat of the Jin army, you need to think long-term. However, if it really doesn't work, let's retreat to the desert, anyway, we Huns originally lived in the desert, and we will have the opportunity to go south again in the future. Don't look at the Jin army now, it's not that the other party has taken advantage of the territory, and when it comes to the grassland, it is not necessarily who wins and who loses! ”

Liu Xuan was also uncomfortable, seeing that the foundation of the Huns was eaten away by the Jin army little by little, and the outstanding descendants of the Huns were cleaned up by the Jin army one by one, but they had no way at all, which made him feel very uncomfortable. If he knew the news that Yanmen had fallen into the Jin army, it was estimated that he would be so angry that he would vomit blood!

"Humph! The Jin people are really too deceitful, and one day, I will return everything today to the other party! "By now, Liu Yuan can only live his addiction. At the moment, Liu Yuan was still slapping his swollen face and becoming fat, thinking that the northern passage was still in the hands of the Huns, as Liu Xuan said, at the last moment he completely left the state and ran to the prairie.

"Da Dan Yu has this ambition, but the Great Khan must remember not to be impulsive, everything is important to my Hun cause!" Liu Xuan sighed.

"Qi Great Khan, Yanmen has an urgent military situation!" Suddenly, a guard barged in and reported loudly.

"Urgent military intelligence?"

"Yanmen? And the child? ”

Liu Yuan and Liu Xuan's uncle and nephew were both taken aback when they heard this, and involuntarily stood up from their respective seats.

"What about people? Bring each other in! Liu Yuan couldn't help but ask anxiously, as soon as he heard the urgent military information from Yanmen, he couldn't sit still anymore.

The guards immediately brought in the cavalry who had come to report the news.

"Qi Yu Great Khan, the villain is the personal soldier of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Just a few days ago, the Jin army sent nearly 100,000 troops to attack Yanmen County, and the Yellow River defense line has been taken by the Jin army. In the face of the crisis, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was afraid of being ambushed by the Jin army, so he did not dare to act rashly. The prince sent a small one to tell the Great Khan, and asked the Great Khan to send troops to support him! The cavalry who reported the news fell to his knees and reported to Liu Yuan in a hoarse voice.

"What? Ma Yi lost? When Liu Yuan heard the news, his body couldn't help but shake, if Liu Xuan hadn't stood aside and quickly supported him, he would have fallen directly to the ground.

"Bastard, what the hell is going on? How did Liu He take care of Yanmen? By this time, Liu Yuan had already gotten out of anger, when he was assigning tasks, due to the limited ability of his eldest son, he specially arranged a relatively easy job for him, but he didn't expect it to be in Liu He's hands except for a big mistake. He didn't believe 100% of what the herald had just said, and there must be something in it that he didn't know.

"Tell the truth, otherwise you will be dragged out and beheaded immediately!" Liu Xuan couldn't help but threaten.

"This, this, this ......" the herald sweated on his head, and his words were not in order. Under the threat of the Xiongnu Great Khan, he really didn't dare to continue lying, and soon the herald gave Liu He everything in Yanmen.

"The shaft mistook me! Burst! After Liu Yuan screamed, a mouthful of blood spurted out far away, and then fell on his back, everyone panicked, everyone knew that Liu Yuan was the backbone of the entire Xiongnu Han Kingdom, if he fell, I am afraid that the next war would not have to be fought.

"Big Order!" Liu Xuan let out an exclamation, grabbed Liu Yuan, who was about to fall, and shouted at everyone: "Don't go and call the imperial doctor quickly!" ”

Immediately after everyone, Liu Yuan was helped to the dormitory, and at this moment, a imperial doctor hurried to the dormitory. I saw that after he took the pulse, he said to Liu Xuan, who had an anxious face: "Please Lord Zongzheng, don't worry, Da Khan is fine, it's just a moment of anger, I will first perform acupuncture on Da Khan, and then I will wake up after taking this medicine." ”

Sure enough, after the imperial doctor gave Liu Yuan acupuncture, Liu Yuan finally woke up leisurely under everyone's expectations. The first thing he said when he woke up was: "Spread my will, remove Liu He from military power, and hand over all military and political affairs in Yanmen to Lord Zongzheng." Uncle, Yanmen County will be handed over to you. After you arrive at Yanmen, you must bring that rebel to Jinyang, this kid is really lawless, does he think that my Huns were defeated fast enough! ”

"Sweat profusely and slowly!" Liu Xuan hurriedly stopped the issuance of the holy decree, only to see him kneeling at the head of Liu Yuan's bed, and persuaded earnestly in his words: "Great Khan, at this time, Yanmen County must have become a pot of porridge, if this holy decree is issued, it will only further aggravate the chaos in the state, and maybe it will be taken advantage of by the Jin army, which will not benefit us at all!" ”

"Then according to my uncle's opinion, how should we deal with the military situation in Yanmen?" Liu Yuan, who had come to his senses, suddenly became smarter, and obviously he also realized that this will was a little inappropriate. Isn't this forcing Liu He to rebel, in case Liu He, who realizes his own danger, defects to the Jin army in panic, wouldn't it be a great aggravation of the immediate crisis.

"The prince can't move for the time being, since he dares to send someone to lie about the military situation, it means that the other party is already a frightened bird, if there is a slight movement on our side, I'm afraid he will do something stupid under fear! Therefore, what we need to do most at the moment is to stabilize the other party first, and then send someone to quickly rush to Yanmen and take over the military power in the hands of the prince, which is the safest way! Liu Xuan stroked his beard and suggested.

"Well, that's it, come here, immediately notify Ma Qiu and General Liu Qin to come to see me, hurry!" Liu Yuan roared angrily at the surrounding guards.

"Yes!" The guards immediately sent people to invite Liu Qin and Ma Qiu.

Soon, Liu Qin and Ma Qiu rushed to Jinyang Palace. Both of them had just gotten up, and they hadn't even had time to eat breakfast before they rushed over. Liu Yuan summoned them in such a hurry, something big must have happened.

In Liu Yuan's dormitory, Ma Qiu and Liu Qin met Liu Yuan. At this moment, Liu Yuan's face was full of the flush caused by anger, which made Ma Qiu and Liu Qin a little nervous, and they didn't know what the Great Khan was angry for.

"Great Khan, what's going on?" Liu Qin and Ma Qiu asked.

"I just received an urgent report that Zhang Fangdong, the general of the Jin army, crossed the Yellow River and launched a surprise attack on Yanmen County, and now Mayi has fallen. The crown prince is commanding the army to resist, the situation is very critical, and the Jin army is leading Zhang Fang to attack all over the country. Liu Yuan gritted his teeth and said.

"What? How so? Liu Qin and Ma Qiu both screamed when they heard this. How could they, as high-ranking generals, not know the importance of Yanmen, it was the only way to connect the Han State with Tuoba Xianbei, and it was also the only way for the Hu people to retreat north from the steppe. At the same time, he also understood the purpose of Liu Yuan's call to come.

"Is the Great Khan ready for us to send troops to rescue Yanmen?" Liu Qin asked along the lines.

"That's true, after you arrived in Yanmen, you immediately took over the command of all the armies in Yanmen, with Liu Qin as the main general and Ma Qiu as the deputy general, and let the prince rush back to Jinyang immediately." Liu Yuan didn't talk nonsense and directly told them about the next task, originally he wanted Liu Xuan to go to Yanmen, but when he thought that he couldn't leave the other party for the time being, plus the other party was too old to withstand the toss, it was best to send Liu Qin and Ma Qiu.
