Chapter 694: Murong Jun's Anxiety
Murong Ke thought for a while, looked at Murong Ba, and said softly: "Okay, don't worry!" I'm waiting for your good news here. ”
"Yes, Fourth Brother." Murong Ba clenched his fists in response, turned around and went to prepare.
Soon, Murong Ba personally led the main force of the Yan army and launched a fierce attack on Xiangguo City.
The well-arranged defensive facilities of the Wei defenders have lost three percent in the first round of the Yan army's attack, and the casualties of the soldiers are also relatively strict, in the face of the second round of the Yan army's attack, it seems more difficult, the most important thing is that the Yan army is attacking from all directions, and the Wei army's strength is insufficient, after spreading out on the four city walls, the defensive strength in each place is very weak, and it is impossible to block the fierce attack of the Yan army for a long time.
"The warriors of the Great Yan Kingdom, enter the city of Xiangguo and kill ......" Murong Ba roared to encourage the soldiers under his command, and let them rush forward with all their might.
"Kill ......" The main force of the Yan army, encouraged by Murong Ba, worked harder to kill the walls of Xiangguo City.
The Wei generals who defended Xiangguo City, seeing that the Yan army had more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, launched an attack on Xiangguo City regardless of a qiē, and he couldn't help but feel a little weak in his heart, he naturally understood that if there were no reinforcements to reinforce it, Xiangguo City would definitely not be able to hold it, but the thousands of men and horses under his command were all warriors of the Great Wei State, even if they died in battle, they had to work hard to protect the city of the Great Wei State, at this moment, what he was most eager for was that the tens of thousands of reinforcements promised by Jiang Gan could arrive in Xiangguo City as soon as possible, he believed that with the ease of defending and difficult to attack Xiangguo City, as long as there were tens of thousands of horses stationed in the city, can resist the main force of the Yan army.
It's just that he doesn't know yet. The tens of thousands of reinforcements that Jiang Gan promised were just empty words, and Jiang Gan did this just so that they could better block the footsteps of the Yan army moving south, and exchange their 5,000 men and horses for more preparation time for Yecheng.
"General, it's not good, the Yan army has already attacked the city." At this moment, a soldier reported the news that the Yan army had captured the city.
The commander of the Wei army raised his eyes and looked. I couldn't help but be surprised. On the city wall to its left, dozens of Yan soldiers have already boarded, and moreover, there are more Yan soldiers who are climbing the city wall.
"Soldiers. Reinforcements will arrive tomorrow. Be sure to defend the city. Kill with the general, kill ......" The main general of the Wei army shouted loudly and personally led his own soldiers. Kill the Yan soldiers who climbed the city wall.
"Kill, kill all these Xianbei dogs." The general of the Wei army shouted loudly, and personally brandished his weapons to kill the Yan soldiers who climbed the city wall.
"Kill ......" all the relatives and soldiers, following behind the main general of the Wei army, launched a fierce attack on the Yan army soldiers who killed the head of the city.
After a fierce battle, dozens of Yan soldiers were all killed, and the city wall was temporarily held, but the Yan army's attack did not stop, but became more and more fierce.
"General, our army has been attacking for two hours in a row, and it is getting dark, do you want to postpone the attack." A general saw that the main army had been attacking Xiangguo for a long time, and he hugged his fists and built a road.
Murong Ke nodded and ordered, "Mingjin collects his troops and continues to attack the city tomorrow." ”
"Yes, General." The subordinate general responded, and then conveyed Murong Ke's order.
"Bell, bell, ......bell, bell" Behind the large array of the Yan army, the sound of the gong of the withdrawal of the army was heard.
Murong Ba, who was killing under Xiangguo City, heard the sound of gold in the direction of the Chinese army, and was immediately dissatisfied, and ordered his soldiers and horses to continue to storm Xiangguo City.
"General, the so-called military order is like a mountain, let's retreat immediately!" A small colonel clenched his fists and persuaded.
Murong Ba sighed and ordered, "Retreat, retreat." After speaking, he turned his horse's head and ran in the direction of the Chinese army's main formation.
Subsequently, the main force of the Yan army, which was attacking Xiangguo City, all retreated to the rear, and soon, they were out of the attack range of the Wei army defending the city.
"Fourth brother, our army is almost ready to break through Xiangguo City, why do you want to withdraw your troops." After Murong Ba returned to the Chinese army's array, he immediately complained to Murong Ke.
Murong Ke smiled and said softly: "It's already dark, and the soldiers are tired, have a good night's rest, and tomorrow you will continue to lead the army to attack Xiangguo City." ”
"Yes, Fourth Brother." Seeing that Murong Ke already had a plan, Murong Ba clenched his fists and said.
Just when the main force of the Yan army was fighting a bloody battle under Xiangguo City, in the palace of Jicheng, Murong Jun, the king of Yan, also fell into extreme anxiety, and since receiving the news that the elite men and horses of the Jin army were heading north, his heart became extremely uneasy.
Murong Jun knew very well in his heart that although the strength of the Great Yan Kingdom had been greatly improved compared to ten years ago, the strength of the Great Jin Dynasty had also expanded a lot, especially Yizhou, Liangzhou, and Guanzhong, the Central Plains had been captured by the Jin army one after another, and the national strength of the Great Jin Dynasty had at least doubled, and it had become the most powerful force in the whole world.
The Great Yan State can defeat Ran Min's Wei State, but it may not be able to compete with the main force of the Jin army, besides, several forces such as Goguryeo, Buyeo, and Xianbei Yuwen to the north of Liaodong are not really subjugated to the Great Yan State.
But if he withdrew from Hebei and returned to the bitter cold land of Liaodong, Murong Jun was very unwilling in his heart, and besides, once he withdrew from the land he had already captured, his strength would be greatly weakened, which was also extremely unfavorable to the Great Yan Kingdom.
Murong Jun's most desired result at this moment is to hold the land that he has already controlled, and not to turn against the powerful Great Jin court, so as to wait and see the situation and move.
Although it was getting late, in the main hall of the palace, the lights were still bright, and several important ministers of the Great Yan Kingdom were discussing with Murong Jun how to deal with the main force of the Jin army going north to Yecheng.
"Your Majesty, today's Great Jin Dynasty has more than twice as many troops as my Great Yan Kingdom, and the strength of the Great Jin Imperial Court is far above my Great Yan Kingdom. A minister of Yan said, clenching his fists.
Murong Jun frowned, and said loudly: "This king naturally understands that the strength of the Great Jin Imperial Court greatly exceeds that of my Great Yan, but my Great Yan Kingdom has lost tens of thousands of soldiers, and the large area of Hebei that I have worked so hard to capture cannot be given to the Jin army!" This king is very unwilling in his heart! ”
"Your Majesty, our army does not have to completely withdraw from Hebei, it only needs to stick to the land it has occupied and garrison it with the main force of the Jin army." A minister said with his fists clenched.
Murong Jun was overjoyed when he heard this, this was exactly the result he expected, but he was not sure that the generals of the Jin army would think the same way, so he asked: "What if the Jin army does not agree to divide the land and lead the army to attack our army?" ”
The minister smiled, hugged his fists and said: "The king doesn't have to worry, the Jin army in Hebei only has more than 100,000 soldiers and horses under the Jin general Hua'an, and it has no strength to defeat the main force of our army, so as long as our army does not take the initiative to launch a provocation, the generals of the Jin army should not take the initiative to attack our army, otherwise, the Jin army will dig its own grave." ”
"However, the Great Jin Imperial Court is not only a general like Hua'an! Yin Hao and Huan Wen have more than 100,000 elite soldiers and horses, if these two groups of people and horses suddenly reinforce Hebei, it will be difficult for our army to win! Murong Jun said worriedly.
"Although the king can rest assured, Yin Hao and Huan Wen will definitely not reinforce Hebei." The minister affirmed.
"Oh, why are you so sure?" Murong Jun asked curiously.
The minister clenched his fists and said: "Your Majesty, my monarchs and ministers of the Great Yan Kingdom are all of one mind, but this is not the case with the Great Jin Dynasty!" The Great Jin Dynasty is a court established with the support of the scholars, and most of the government is monopolized by the officials of the scholars, these ministers of the scholars are greedy for comfort, most of them lack foresight, and they will not fully support the Northern Expedition. ”
Murong Jun was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "Wonderful, wonderful!" Aiqing is very right, how can the so-called high merit shock the lord for a long time, if you don't get the support of the other armies of the Great Jin, with the power of Hua'an's army, my Dayan Kingdom can deal with it freely, hahaha! He laughed.
"Your Majesty, the prestige of the Jin general Hua'an is extremely high, and it must have aroused the suspicion of the Great Jin court a long time ago, if we use a little trick, we can make it repeat the mistakes of the ancestor of course and die of grief." Another minister said, clenching his fists.
"Oh, the plan will be settled." Murong Jun hurriedly asked.
The minister raised his eyebrows, clenched his fists and said: "Send a team of men and horses to Jiankang City in the south of the Yangtze River to spread rumors that the Jin general Hua An has a heart of disobedience, and let the Great Jin court deal with this Hua general who can fight well." ”
When Murong Jun heard this, his eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands and said, "Okay, what a clever plan!" Just do what Aiqing said, let the Great Jin Dynasty self-destruct the Great Wall, and when the time comes, the whole world will inevitably belong to my Great Yan Kingdom. ”
"The king is wise, and my Great Yan Kingdom will rule the whole world." The ministers shouted in unison.
"Hahaha!" Murong Jun laughed a few times and said softly: "It's not early, everyone Aiqing should go back first!" Remember, collect more information about the Jin general Hua'an, this person will not be eliminated for a day, and it will be difficult for this king to sleep for a day. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, the ministers are retired." The ministers of the Yan Kingdom clasped their fists and turned to leave the main hall of the palace.
After the ministers left the main hall, Murong Jun easily paced in the main hall, at this moment, under the analysis of the ministers, he finally found the Achilles heel of the Great Jin court, and his heart suddenly ignited the grand wish of unifying the world, and was determined to complete this wish in his lifetime.
After thinking about it again, Murong Jun felt that now, Su Hai and Wang Wu and other Wei generals had not been annihilated, and it was not very safe to rashly enter Yecheng south to confront the Jin army head-on, so he immediately ordered Murong Ke in the direction of Xiangguo City to immediately stop continuing to attack southward after capturing Xiangguo City, and instead stabilize the land that Dìng had already captured.
