Chapter 193: Straight into Ye City
At the beginning, Yan Yidu Wang Huan Shuai more than 10,000 people in Tun Shating, for the Taifu to comment on the successor, heard the defeat of the commentary, and led the troops to Tun Nei Huang. Hearing that Anyang City fell, Ding Chou, Huan Shuai Xianbei 5,000 let Yecheng run to Dragon City. Yan Dazai wanted to use Li Ji as his right servant to "shoot", but Yan Zhuwei did not allow it. Ke repeatedly thought that he was invited, and Wei said: "Everything is entrusted to my uncle, Boyang (Li Ji) alone, and Wei asks for dictatorship." "Out of the river is too guarded, and I am angry.
- quotes the introduction
"The Mengjun army of the king of Beifu has captured the 'dang' yin and yang, and the vanguard has arrived at Anyang City, which is only five hundred miles away from Yecheng."
Feng Yi, the supervisor of the middle book, read the military newspaper in his hand in a low voice, because it was all bad news, no one was willing to be a mourning bird, and pushed it back and forth, and finally Feng Yi was pushed out to take on this important task.
"Lu Zhen, the general of Beihai in Beifu, led 30,000 cavalry troops through Xianbei Mountain in the spring of this year, spread the news of the Donghu tribes, said about the Yan, and ordered all those who attached to the Yan to be exterminated. As soon as this order came out, north of the weak Luoshui (West Liao River), hundreds of Yu Lou, Furu, Kou Man Khan, Khitan, and Kuli Xi all changed banners one after another, and donated cattle and sheep, and the young and strong elite accompanied the army to help, and it was reported that there were no less than 50,000 people who were attached to the tail. ”
"Lu Zhen took advantage of this might, and defeated my Pingzhou left-behind army in Fuyu City (now Siping, Jilin) on the tenth day of the seventh month, and beheaded Murong Zhu and 20,000 heads in the left Zhonglang, Pingbei General Wu Qianggong, Zhenwei General Mu Yu He Xin fled back to Gaoxian (now Tieling, Liaoning), and Pingzhou Longcheng was shocked."
Hearing this, Murong Ke, whose face was pale, couldn't help coughing again and again, and his heart-rending voice echoed strangely in the empty palace. Seeing Murong Ke's appearance, Sikong Yang, who had been gloomy just now, and the left servant 'shot' Sikong Huangfu Zhen hurriedly persuaded: "Great Sima ......"
And Murong Wei, the eleven-year-old Yan Lord who was sitting in the middle of the top, couldn't help it, and hurriedly said with concern: "Uncle Huang, don't be too anxious, your body is important!" "Yes, it is a difficult time for the country, if the pillar stone Murong Ke falls again, there is really no hope for this Yan country.
Murong Ping next to him also said repeatedly: "Da Sima, beware of the physical ......" He is a general, and he should have been subject to the law of the country, but Murong Ke asked Murong Wei, the lord of Yan, to pardon Murong Ping and his people for the reason that it was an extraordinary period and an important talent, which made Murong Ping feel a little more grateful in his heart, and he should also behave well at this time.
In the midst of everyone's concern, Murong Ke waved his hand weakly, and then gasped lightly and said, "My body is like this, it's okay!" Anyway! This Lu Zhen is only in his twenties, and he is so powerful! ”
"Da Sima is right, think this Beihai general Lu Zhen, it is said that Zeng Zhenbei personally trained and led the Beihai Ele tribes for several years, not only calming down, but also training tens of thousands of iron horses, repeatedly stepping on Xianbei Mountain, hunting difficult rivers. This son won the weight of Zeng Zhenbei, as the new heavy general of Beifu, not only the army is slightly outstanding, but also a person who kills and decides, over the years, the Donghu tribes have been exterminated by him more than 1,000, and hundreds of thousands of people died under his knife. In the entire Donghu grassland, when the name of the Beihai general is mentioned, no one shuddes in their hearts, and it is said that it can stop children from crying at night. "It was Mu Yugen who sighed, he once went north to fight Mu Luzhen, and he didn't seem to take any advantage.
Hearing this, Murong Ke couldn't help coughing a few more times, almost coughing out his liver and lungs, Murong Wei couldn't help but feel anxious, and hurriedly motioned for an attendant to go up and gently pat Murong Ke's back, and after several strokes, Murong Ke finally took a breath.
"The territory of my Yan country is compressed into a long and narrow north-south length, and the distribution of troops is helpless into a long snake, and the northern province can attack by different routes, and it is easy to divide the Yan army into several pieces, and it is difficult to take care of the end and end." Murong Ke said slowly.
Hearing this, everyone understood what Murong Ke meant, and now the Yan army is divided into four groups: Guanggu Murong Chen's army, Jicheng Murong Chui's army, Longcheng's left-behind Yiyi army, and Yandu Yecheng, but Yecheng seems to be the weakest one.
"Beifu Beihai General Lu Zhen invaded Pingzhou, intended to take Longcheng, and led the army to "force" Youzhou with Tuoba Shi Yijian, suppressing the fifth brother of Jicheng. The art of war has clouds, good attackers, moving above the nine heavens, Zeng Zhenbei is not moving, and as soon as he makes a move, he will point the three dead "holes" of my Yan Kingdom to death. After coughing fiercely, Murong Ke's face actually had two traces of "tide" red "color", he covered his chest vigorously, and said slowly.
"Da Sima, Lu Zhen's department is just a grassland cavalry, a group of rabble, I have been operating in Pingzhou for many years, and the remaining army only needs to stick to the solid city, he is helpless; Tuoba Shi Yijian is in-law with my Yan Kingdom, and he should be able to open up to my Yan Kingdom, at least when the battle situation is unclear, he should not push my Yan Kingdom into a desperate situation so quickly, so it will not do him any good; In this way, as long as we stick to Yecheng, and then connect with Youzhou and Qingzhou, we will be able to defend Jizhou and Qingzhou, as long as we breathe a sigh of relief. Mu Yugen frowned and said, after speaking, he shook his head again, maybe he felt a little too wishful thinking.
Seeing that everyone was sad, Murong Wei, who was sitting at the top, was a little breathless, and turned to ask Murong Ke, "Uncle Huang, how is this good?" ”
Murong Ke pondered for a long time before he slowly replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the only way to fight to the death is to fight to the death. His Majesty can pass on the edict to the prefectures, step up the issuance of green and strong grain and grass, transfer to Yecheng, and then worship the general Fu Yan as the governor, the general Li Hong of Longxiang, and the general of the left guard Meng Gao as the deputy governor, collect the grain and grass of the troops of Wei County and other nearby counties, and garrison the Wucheng, thinking that it echoes, and then lead Guanggu Murong Chen to gather the Qingzhou army, go north to help, and attack the rear wing of Wang Meng's army. Then ask Lord Feng to go to Youzhou and persuade Tuoba Shi Yijian, no matter what the conditions are, we can agree, as long as he can restrain Shuozhou and Mo Nanfu troops from attacking Youzhou, the fifth brother can free up his hands to help Yecheng. When all the reinforcements gather in one place, our army will fight with Wang Jingluo again, and then we will talk about winning or losing! Please rest assured, Your Majesty, even if the ministers are broken bones, they must also protect the foundation of the Yan Kingdom. ”
Murong Ke said this in one breath, panting more and more, and finally couldn't help coughing violently.
"The strategy of the king of Taiyuan is really a plan to determine the country," Yang Yu sighed after listening, "With the king of Taiyuan making a move, he will definitely be able to turn the tide." ”
Everyone also nodded, and their faces looked slightly better.
Seeing that the situation eased for a while, Murong Wei, the lord of Yan, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and immediately passed the edict to Zun Ke Zuhun as the queen mother, with Murong Ke, the king of Taiyuan, as the Dazai, and recorded the government and politics; Shangyong Wang Murong was rated as Taifu, Yang Qi was Taibao, Mu Yugen was Taishi, and Huangfu Zhen was the secretary Lin, and he participated in the government and politics.
In the next few days, Murong Ke personally dispatched the more than 100,000 young men and the remaining 50,000 elites gathered together and stationed them in the important towns around Yecheng. And Wang Meng suddenly stopped after occupying Anyang, as if he was afraid of the momentum of the Yan army, there was no bad news from Youzhou and Pingzhou, Yecheng was in a high mood for a while, everyone felt that the situation was changing for the better, and there was actually time to bury Murong Jun in Yecheng Anling, and he said that Emperor Jingzhao and the temple number Liezu.
But this short period of peace still can't suppress the contradictions that have accumulated within Yan Kingdom for a long time.
Taishi Mu Yugen's "sexuality" Gemu is strong, and he believes that he is an old general of the previous dynasty, and he is dissatisfied with Murong Ke in his heart, and he is at odds with Murong Ke. And Murong Ke is now busy with military affairs, the Queen Mother Ke Zuhun clan and Murong Ping have formed a relationship with Murong Ping, frequently intervening in political affairs, Mu Yugen hates it, and at this delicate time, if he wants to plot 'chaos', he said to Murong Ke: "Today, the lord is young, the state affairs are difficult, but there is a queen mother to interfere in politics, His Royal Highness should prevent accidents, it is better to plan for himself." And those who determine the world depend on the merits of His Highness. Brother and brother, ancient and modern law, now the emperor has gone, it is advisable to abolish the lord as the king, His Royal Highness practices the throne, thinking that Dayan is infinitely blessed. ”
Murong Ke was furious and said, "What does this mean, Taishi? Unexpectedly, such an unyielding remark. I and the Taishi received the edict of the first emperor, and when Side repaid the favor, An had this paradox. ”
Mu Yugen's face was full of shame and shame, and he bowed back. Murong Ke said that the secretary was in the emperor's house, and he really said that Murong Ke was in danger of state affairs, and it was not appropriate to engage in internal strife, so he did not listen.
Mu Yugen also said to the Kezuhun clan and the Yan lord Murong Wei: "Dazai and Taifu will plot against them, and the ministers will lead the forbidden soldiers to punish them." But Zuhun was silent, but Murong Wei, the lord of Yan, said: "The second duke, the pro-sage of the country, the first emperor chose to trust the lonely minister, and now there is a great enemy on the way, and An Neng self-destructs the Great Wall!" "That's it.
Mu Yugen just two days later, he has always been in love with his homeland in Pingzhou, and now he sees the Central Plains eventful, and he can't help but feel the feeling of returning to his hometown. So he said to the Kezuhun clan and the Yan lord Murong Wei: "Today's depression, foreign cowards are rampant, and the country is in deep danger. But Zuhun and Murong Wei were tempted. Mu Yugen bribed the left and right attendants with a lot of money, and Lord Yan was even more shaken. This word spread to Yecheng, and the army and civilians were "shaken" for a while.
When Murong Ke heard this, he couldn't help but be furious, but conspired with the Taifu Murong Commentary, secretly played Mu Yugen's crimes, and then sent an edict to the general Ai Lang in the palace to lead the forbidden army to bind Mu Yugen, and his wife and more than 1,000 party henchmen, including the former army general Mu Yuqian, the Zhenbei general Mu Yuliang, and the Hati general Murong Zhou, etc., all of whom were beheaded in the south of the city.
Looking at the triumphant Murong Ping, and then at the bloodless Murong Ke with a bloodless face and trembling all over, Yang Xiao and Huangfu really couldn't help but feel sad, at this time of crisis, but why is it an eventful time, is it really going to die in the Yan Kingdom.
Everyone soon left the bloody execution ground one after another, leaving only Murong Ke standing silently on the side. Looking at the thin figure stretching longer and longer in the sunset, like a lonely and helpless dead leaf in the autumn wind, Huangfu really felt two lines of tears quietly slipping across his face. "The building will fall, and it will be difficult to support it alone."
On the night of October 23, a rapid sound of horses' hooves woke up the sweet dreams of everyone in Yecheng.
"Report, 50,000 Baijia troops from Beifu came out of Jingcheng Pass on the ninth day of October, first took Zhending, and then rushed for hundreds of miles to take Jizhou Xindu, and now it has turned south to trap Xiangguo and Julu, and the soldiers are pointing directly at Handan."
This news exploded in everyone's heads like a huge thunder, and even Murong Ke, who had always been very calm, was shocked. Wang Meng was not afraid of Yan Guo's counterattack, but waited for this Beifu army to copy the back road, ready to take Yecheng in one pot.
"This Beifu army is really a white-armored army, whose banner is it fighting?" In the end, it was Murong Ke who came back to his senses first and asked.
"Back to the king of Taiyuan, the whole army of this Beifu army is wearing fine white steel armor, one person and two horses, galloping day and night, dismounting can attack the city and fight, and it is only a matter of ten days to fight for thousands of miles. This army is called the box army, and the banner of the Chinese army is the name of the general of Jin. In addition, the governor of the prefecture led 70,000 soldiers to follow closely and receive the cities. ”
"It's really Zeng Zhenbei, I still underestimate him, how can he show his means just by hitting each other head and tail. The timing of the dispatch was seamless. My Yan country is pinned down everywhere, and there is no mobile force, just at the moment of life and death, the troops go out of Jizhou, and they will not die! Murong Ke looked up to the sky and sighed.
"Uncle Huang!" "King Taiyuan!" "Da Sima!" The crowd shouted in unison.
"The White Armor Army is the Xiang Army, the most elite division in Beifu, attacking like fire, fast as the wind, if you let these 50,000 Xiang Army and Wang Meng's 100,000 Fu soldiers join Yecheng City, not only Yecheng is not guaranteed, but it is too late to run." Murong Ke said gloomily, "Since Zeng Zhenbei personally led the army, there is no city in this world that cannot be attacked. ”
"Uncle Huang, what should I do then?" Yan Lord Murong Wei asked with a sad face.
"It's better to go to Dragon City as soon as possible." Murong Ke finally said helplessly, and then sighed deeply.
That night, Shangyong Wang Ping, Le'an Wang Zang, Zixiang Wang Yuan, Zuo Wei General Meng Gao, Palace General Ai Lang and other elite cavalry 5,000 people supporting the Yan Lord Murong Wei and the Queen Mother Kezu Hun and other hundreds of people from the inner palace left Ye City and went to Dragon City. Murong Ke led the Taibao Yang Qi and the secretary and supervisor Huang Fu Zhen to defend Yecheng.
On October 25, Wang Meng's army rushed to Yecheng and besieged Yecheng overnight. The 100,000 troops of Wucheng were already unstable, and when they heard the arrival of the Beifu soldiers, they roared and dispersed. Fu Yan, the governor and general of the army, committed suicide, and Li Hong, the deputy governor and general of Longxiang, ran back to Yecheng alone.
On October 26, Zeng Hua led 50,000 troops to Yecheng, and the morale of the Beifu army was greatly boosted, and stone artillery demonstrations were fired. That night, Xu Wei, a free-rider squire, led 500 people from Buyeo, Goguryeo, Baekje, Silla, and Ren Nazhi to open the western gate of the city at night to attract the Beifu army. 100,000 Beifu troops surged in, tens of thousands of Yan troops fought or scattered, and soon the entire Yecheng was "chaotic". Taibao Yang Qi and Long Xiang General Li Hong "committed suicide", and Feng Yi, the supervisor of the Zhongshu Department, and Huang Fuzhen, the secretary and supervisor, surrendered. At dawn, Zeng Hua and Wang Meng led the army into Yecheng.
