Murong Jun and his ministers were all taken aback when they heard that the Jin army was asking for peace, after all, at this time, the Jin army was in an advantageous position both in terms of strength and morale.

The Jin army suddenly asked for peace in an advantageous situation, which made Murong Jun and the ministers under his command a little confused, but they all thought that there was definitely a reason why the Jin army acted like this, but they couldn't figure out what the specific reason was for a while.

"Your Majesty, the Jin army suddenly asked for peace, there seems to be a name for it here!" A minister of the Yan Kingdom said suspiciously.

"Your Majesty, now, the main force of the Jin army has arrived on the south bank of the water control, do they want to use the water control as the boundary and strike a truce with our Great Yan Kingdom." Another minister of the Yan army said.

When Murong Jun heard this, he lowered his head and thought for a moment, and said: "No matter what the conspiracy of the Jin army is, since they propose to negotiate peace, it is not easy for my Dayan Kingdom to refuse, it is better for you to talk before the envoy of the Jin army, and this king will go back to the palace to rest for the time being." With that, he strode out of the main hall.

At this time, Murong Jun did not really return to the dormitory, but hid behind the screen of the main hall, and the reason why he did not directly meet the Jin army envoy was to put on a tough posture that did not care about peace talks, so that the Jin army envoy understood that the Great Yan Kingdom was not easy to bully.

Soon, at the behest of the ministers of the Yan State, the envoys of the Jin army entered the main hall of the Yan State and put forward the conditions for peace talks.

When the ministers of the Yan State learned that the Jin army's request was to use Yishui as the boundary, the two sides were all taken aback, and Murong Jun behind the screen was also taken aback.

Soon, though. Murong Jun realized that it was very likely that the Jin army had encountered some difficulties, otherwise, he would never have taken the initiative to retreat hundreds of kilometers with such kindness and give up a large area of land in the south of Youzhou, but at the same time, it was not ruled out that the Jin army was luring the enemy to go deeper, after all, the water control defense line was backed by Jicheng, which was very difficult to fight, if the Yan army was attracted to the vicinity of Yishui. is very easy to annihilate.

Consistent with Murong Jun's thoughts. The ministers of the Yan Kingdom in the main hall also felt that the Jin army's intentions were very suspicious, and frowned and discussed.

Since Murong Jun was not in the main hall, the ministers of the Yan Kingdom did not dare to call the shots. So he asked the Jin army envoy to return first. And after a careful discussion with Murong Jun. Then make a response.

As soon as the envoy of the Jin army left, Murong Jun walked out from behind the screen and said loudly: "The Jin army must take Yishui as the boundary. Truce with my Great Yan Kingdom, this king feels strange no matter how he thinks! What do you think? After speaking, he looked at the ministers.

"Your Majesty, Weichen also feels strange, but, no matter what, since the Jin army has put forward a request that my Great Yan Kingdom can accept, my Great Yan should agree first." A minister of Yan said.

"Yes! Your Majesty, now the shape is extremely unfavorable to my Great Yan Kingdom, since the Jin army took the initiative to make peace, my Great Yan Kingdom should agree, besides, with Yishui as the boundary, the Jin army did not deceive me. Another minister of Yan said.

Murong Jun thought for a moment and said softly: "How to reply specifically, this king has to think about it carefully, and what the Jin army is trying to do, we must also find out." ”

When all the ministers heard this, they all nodded approvingly, and decided to investigate in detail the main reason why the Jin army was in a hurry to retreat according to Murong Jun's request.

In the Murong Ke camp on the north bank of the water, the main general Murong Ke was studying the military situation on the other side of the Chinese army's big tent, and a henchman colonel immediately rushed into the big tent and reported: "General Qiyu, Wang Meng, the general of the Jin army, personally led 20,000 cavalry to run due west, and his intentions are unknown. ”

Murong Ke was taken aback when he heard this, and then looked at the map in front of him, and carefully analyzed it according to the map.

"Fourth brother, Wang Meng suddenly led 20,000 cavalry to march due west, what kind of attempt is it, is it to go around the back of our army?" Murong Ba was also very surprised, and expressed the doubts in his heart.

Murong Ke hurriedly looked at the direction of the upstream of the water control, thought for a moment, shook his head and said: "No, the upstream is not conducive to cavalry mobility, if Wang Meng's 20,000 horses go deep from the upstream alone, it will be easy to be cut off by our army, besides, only 20,000 cavalry, even if they reach the back of our army, the threat to our army is very small, so there is no need to worry about this." ”

"Since Wang Meng's 20,000 horses can't pose a threat to our army, then for what?" Murong Ba felt very strange.

Murong Ke shook his head and said softly: "I don't know about this, but isn't it even more strange that the Jin army suddenly wants to negotiate peace with my Great Yan Kingdom?" I think there must be some kind of connection between the two. After speaking, he frowned.

Murong Ba nodded approvingly, obviously, he thought so too.

In the camp of the Jin army on the south bank of the water, Hua An was waiting for Murong Jun's reply, so that after getting the promise of Yan Guo, he would immediately pull out the camp and go south.

However, the envoy sent by Hua'an did not see Murong Jun, so naturally he did not get a reply from Murong Jun, which made Hua'an quite unhappy, and Murong Jun avoided it, obviously putting on a show, to show Yan Guo's tough posture.

"Your Majesty, what does Murong Jun mean by avoiding it, isn't the sincerity of our army's retreat to the south bank of Yishui enough?" Wang San said angrily.

Hua An thought for a moment and said softly: "This can't be all blamed on Murong Jun, it was too sudden for us to propose peace, and Murong Jun couldn't figure out the true intentions of our army, so he was a little at a loss." After speaking, he smiled slightly.

Hearing this, Wang San nodded, and said softly: "Your Majesty, now that the situation in the direction of the imperial court is becoming more and more critical, if Murong Jun does not reply, wouldn't our army's trip to the south be delayed." After speaking, he frowned.

Hua An smiled, waved his hand and said: "Don't worry about Murong Jun, let the soldiers pack up immediately, and leave the camp to the south tomorrow afternoon, remember, let the infantry, baggage and charioteers go first, and the cavalry will be behind, in case the Yan army will launch a pursuit." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, the last general knows what to do." Wang San replied loudly.

Subsequently, the main force of the Jin army on the south bank of the water began to pack up one after another and made a gesture of evacuation.

The main force of the Jin army appeared in such a large-scale posture of packing up, and it was naturally easily discovered by the Yan army scouts, and as soon as possible, the news was told to Murong Ke, the main general of the Yan army.

When Murong Ke heard this news, he was naturally taken aback, and felt that the actions of the Jin army were very suspicious, although he had long learned that the Great Jin Imperial Court had sent an envoy into the Jin army camp again to deliver the decree, but before, Hua'an had already disobeyed once, with the strength that Hua'an had mastered, even if he disobeyed again, it was not impossible, after all, the imperial court would not be able to cure him for a long time.

"Fourth brother, the main force of the Jin army is packing up, and it looks like they are going to evacuate!" Murong Ba frowned and said, obviously, he didn't understand the Jin army's actions.

Murong Ke nodded and said softly: "Maybe something happened in the direction of Jiankang City, otherwise, Hua'an would not have withdrawn his troops and returned south in such a hurry." ”

"Fourth brother, if this is the case, can our army launch a pursuit when the Jin army retreats, so as to inflict heavy losses on the Jin army." Murong Ba Zhengse said.

Murong Ke said softly: "No, the enemy is strong and I am weak, even if Hua'an leads the army to return south, there will inevitably be a palace army, and our army's pursuit will not achieve much results, so it is better to wait and see what happens." ”

Obviously, Murong Ke knew that the strength of the Yan army was already in a weak position, and if he crossed the water and launched an attack on the Jin army, he would not take advantage of it at all, besides, if the Jin army retreated fraudulently, the situation would be extremely bad.

"Report, general, the scout has just sent back the news that the 20,000 cavalry under the command of Wang Meng, the general of the Jin army, have entered the road leading to Bingzhou." At this moment, the scout sent back the news that Wang Meng's army had moved away.

Murong Ke and Murong Ba were shocked when they heard this, so it was enough to prove that Wang Meng's army did not attempt to sneak attack the back of the Yan army, and Hua'an transferred Wang Meng and 20,000 cavalry away from the south bank of the water control at this time, which was enough to prove that Hua'an's army was really going to evacuate.

"Wang Meng led his troops to Bingzhou, just to enter Guanzhong from Bingzhou, after all, the three prefectures of Qin, Yong, and Liang are very important to Hua'an, and there must be a general in charge of guarding it." Murong Ke analyzed softly.

"Fourth brother, according to this, the Jin army is really going to evacuate, so that our army will have a chance to breathe." Murong Ba said softly.

Since the Jin army attacked Lukou, the Yan army has continued to fight, and there is no respite at all, and now, with the retreat of the Jin army, the Yan army will be greatly relieved.

Murong Ke nodded and said, "Yes!" Our army can finally breathe a sigh of relief, but the threat of the Jin army to our Great Yan Kingdom will always exist, and our army still has to step up training to prepare for the next attack of the Jin army. ”

"Well, that's what the fourth brother said." Murong Ba replied in approval.

Subsequently, Murong Ke discussed with Murong Ba how many troops to occupy dozens of cities in the south of Youzhou after the Jin army withdrew from Youzhou, how many men and horses to deploy on the north bank of Yishui, and sent his henchmen to send the news confirming the sincere withdrawal of the Jin army to the Yanwang Palace, so that Murong Jun could know.

Murong Jun and his ministers were greatly relieved when they learned that the Jin army was really going to evacuate, and they got together to discuss how to recover the city in the south of Youzhou.

In the evening, Hua An had just finished dinner in the Chinese army's tent, and the envoy sent by Murong Jun arrived at the camp and conveyed Murong Jun's attitude of rejecting the army and making peace.

Seeing that Murong Jun agreed to the conditions, Hua An said softly: "Generals, Murong Jun has promised to use Yishui as the boundary with our army, and to make peace with the army, and tomorrow afternoon, our army can set off with peace of mind." (To be continued......)
