Chapter 968: The Yan Army Evacuates Yishui

Hua An and his subordinates walked to the side of the big stone and observed it carefully.

"Where was this stone found?" Huaan asked loudly.

"Your Majesty, this big stone was dug up by the villain in his own lotus pond, and when he saw that there was handwriting on it, he sent it to the king." One of the civilians clenched his fists and said.

Hearing this, Hua An nodded slightly, looked at the lotus root farmer, and said softly: "Very good, it is really a good Tibetan stone, this king can't take your things for nothing, go to the palace to receive the reward!" ”

"Thank you, thank you." The lotus farmer thanked him loudly and followed a member of the palace to the palace to receive the reward.

Zhuge Xiong looked at this huge Tibetan character stone carefully, frowned and said: "Your Majesty, why is the handwriting on it so messy, there are big and small, and besides, it is crooked, and the strokes are not complete, and the writing is not as good as mine?" ”

Seeing this, Wang San smiled and said: "What do you know, this is the Tibetan character stone, and the handwriting on it is naturally formed, indicating the will of heaven, and naturally it will not be written very neatly." ”

When Zhuge Xiong heard this, he nodded in a sudden realization, looked at this Tibetan character stone, and said softly: "The handwriting on it seems to be 'The king of the north is the king, the world is stable', is it that God wants to indicate that the king is going to dominate the world?" After speaking, he looked at Hua'an.

"It seems that this is the will of heaven, your lord! The king will surely reign in the world. Wang San said loudly.

When Hua An heard this, he was naturally very happy in his heart, and after being impregnated with mud, these generals could not see that these handwriting were artificially engraved, so they believed in the statement of the Mandate of Heaven.

"This Tibetan stone will be placed here first, and then it will be moved back to the palace in two hours." Hua An looked at one of the palace guards and said loudly.

"Yes, Your Majesty." The palace guards shouted their orders.

Subsequently. Hua An and his subordinates will return to the palace and continue to discuss how to update the equipment of the main army to improve the combat effectiveness of the army.

Outside the gate of the North Palace, more and more people in Luoyang City rushed to hear the news, and they were all amazed after seeing the Tibetan character stone. And felt that it was providence and quickly spread the event to let more people know.

Two hours later, the Tibetan stone was moved into the palace by the palace guards, and at this time, almost all the people in Luoyang City knew about it and were amazed by it.

Such important news naturally cannot be concealed from Yan Guo's ears and eyes. After they learned of this news, on the one hand, they spread the news in the direction of Jiankang City, and on the other hand, they spread the news in the direction of Jicheng so that Murong Jun, the king of Yan, would know about this matter.

Soon, Yan Guo Xizuo returned to Jicheng and told Murong Jun, the king of Yan, the news of the Tibetan character stone. Murong Jun was shocked when he heard the news. And felt that things were definitely not so simple, and there must be hidden secrets, so for this reason, he specially summoned several confidants under his command and studied this matter together.

Seeing that several confidants had already entered the main hall, Murong Jun hurriedly said, "Ladies and gentlemen. The news has just been transmitted back from the direction of Luoyang City, a person who digs lotus root actually dug a Tibetan character stone in the lotus root pond, and on this Tibetan character stone, it actually shows the eight characters of 'the king of the north is the king and the world is stable'. This king thinks that this matter is not as simple as it seems on the surface, there must be someone behind the deliberate trouble! After speaking, he looked at the courtiers under his command.

When all the courtiers heard this, they all nodded approvingly.

A courtier first hugged his fists and said, "Your Majesty, this is obviously artificially engraved. ”

"Yes! Your Majesty, this Tibetan stone must be a fake. Another courtier said loudly.

Obviously, the courtiers under Murong Jun's command did not believe in the authenticity of the Tibetan character stone.

When Murong Jun heard this, he nodded, looked at the courtiers under his command, and said, "The matter of the Tibetan character stone was not done by us, who could have done it?" ”

Obviously, the most doubtful question in Murong Jun's heart is who is the ghost of this Tibetan Character Stone, and what is the purpose of this person.

"Your Majesty, could this be the ghost of the North King himself?" A courtier said loudly.

"Yes! Wang, a few days ago, my Dayan hid in the Beiwang Palace, and actually found the origin information of the Beiwang very lightly, and this is what I didn't get with all my hard work before, and now, the suburbs of Luoyang City have dug up the Tibetan character stone, these two things together, doesn't it explain the problem? Most of these things are the ghosts of the North King himself. Another minister exclaimed.

Obviously, the courtiers under Murong Ke's command first thought of Hua An himself, after all, according to their normal analysis, Hua An himself is the most likely to make trouble.

When Murong Jun heard this, he nodded slightly, looked at his courtiers, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, why do you think the King of the North is doing this?" Could it be that he has already developed the determination to rebel against the Great Jin court? After speaking, he frowned.

"Your Majesty, this is a possibility! If the Northern King obtains the status of the royal family, it will be easier to rebel, and the success rate will be greatly increased! A courtier hurriedly said.

"Your Majesty, if the Northern King is already planning to usurp the throne, then we are spreading a lot of rumors in the direction of Jiankang City, won't we do the Northern King a great favor?" Another general, frowning, said.

Murong Jun thought for a moment, and said: "If the Northern King really intends to usurp the throne and stand on his own, we will indeed help him, but my Great Yan Kingdom may not suffer, after all, once the Northern King really usurps the throne and stands on his own, there will definitely be people in the Great Jin Dynasty who will strongly oppose it, and when the time comes, the Northern King will have to send troops south, and once such a situation occurs, then won't our Great Yan Kingdom have a chance to breathe?" That's a good thing! ”

Obviously, Murong Jun was still fantasizing that Hua'an would despise Hebei's defense because of the crisis in the south, so as to relieve the pressure on his Great Yan Kingdom.

"Your Majesty, there are many soldiers and horses under the command of the king of the north, even if it is to solve the problem in the south, he may not be able to mobilize the soldiers and horses of Hebei! Weichen is really very worried, once the Northern King, who has the ambition to dominate the world, becomes the new Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, how will my Great Yan Kingdom deal with itself. One of the courtiers said worriedly.

Obviously, this courtier was very afraid of the huge soldiers and horses under Hua An's command, and felt that once Hua An became the new monarch of the Great Jin, it would cause terrible pressure on the Yan State.

When Murong Jun heard this, he couldn't help but shudder, he really hadn't thought about this question carefully.

"If things really come to that point, I'm afraid that my Great Yan Kingdom will have to really surrender." Murong Jun said helplessly.

Obviously, according to the current strength, Murong Jun can no longer confront Hua'an, if Hua'an really solves the crisis in the south, so that there is no worries, he will definitely find a way to recover his homeland, when the time comes, it will be difficult for him to stay in Youzhou and Pingzhou, the only way is to surrender, if he surrenders, maybe he can also keep the land of these two states, otherwise, he will have to retreat to the bitter cold land north of Pingzhou, and compete with small countries such as Buyeo.

When all the courtiers under Murong Jun's command heard this, they were all silent, after all, they had no way to change the current weak status quo.

"Report, Wang, the main force of our army has been evacuated from the north bank of Yishui, and the forward soldiers and horses have crossed the water control, and they will soon arrive at Jicheng." At this moment, a junior colonel rushed into the main hall and reported loudly.

When Murong Jun heard this, he nodded slightly, and the defense line moved hundreds of miles to the north and arrived near Jicheng, which was a situation he did not want to see, but the withdrawal of the front-line army to Jicheng was also carried out in accordance with the terms of peace, which was also a matter of no choice, for this reason, Murong Jun was also very helpless.

However, the withdrawal of the front-line army to Jicheng greatly reduced the pressure on logistics, which can reduce the consumption of the treasury, and it is still very beneficial for the gradual recovery of the national strength of the Yan State.

"Our army evacuated from the north bank of Yishui, did the people of Fanyang County evacuate with them, and did the Jin army move any way, and did they have a large-scale river crossing operation." Murong Jun looked at Xiao Xiao Xiao and asked.

When the little colonel heard this, he hugged his fists and said: "King Qiqi, the people of Fanyang County, only a small number of people have evacuated with our army, and most of the people are reluctant to leave their hometowns, besides, our army has evacuated relatively quickly, and there is not too much time to persuade the people to leave Fanyang County, as for the soldiers and horses of the Jin army, most of them have evacuated the south bank of Yishui and marched in the direction of Lukou City, only a small number of soldiers and horses have been left behind, and there are less than 1,000 soldiers and horses who have crossed Yishui. ”

When Murong Jun and his courtiers heard this, they all felt a little regretful in their hearts, due to the relatively rapid evacuation, the people of Fanyang County and Dai County were all reduced to the people under Hua'an, so that the strength of their Great Yan Kingdom lost a lot, however, the main force of the Xie Ai Legion was able to evacuate the south bank of Yishui in full accordance with the provisions of the agreement, and evacuated in the direction of Lukou City, they were still relatively satisfied, so that the main forces of the two sides were separated by hundreds of miles, and there was no longer a need to worry about the confrontation. A large number of soldiers and horses of the Yan Kingdom can also be cut off.

At this time, since the vanguard army has crossed the water, then Murong Ke and his main generals should also be about to arrive in Jicheng, although Murong Ke lost the battle, but this is also caused by the weakness of the overall strength of the Great Yan Kingdom, not Murong Ke's fault, for this reason, Murong Jun felt that he should still go out of the city to Murong Ke to show his support for Murong Ke, after all, Murong Ke is the pillar of the Yan army, Murong Jun needs him, and he is very much needed.

"Ladies and gentlemen, follow this king to the city gate to welcome the return of the army." Murong Jun looked at the courtiers under his command and said loudly.

"Yes, Your Majesty." When the courtiers under Murong Jun heard this, they followed behind Murong Jun and walked towards the south gate of Jicheng. (To be continued......)
