Chapter 0662 - Out of the Stopper
In 358 AD, that is, the spring of the eleventh year of the emperor, Ran Min decided to drive a personal expedition to completely eliminate the forces of Murong Xianbei entrenched in the land of Mobei and put an end to border troubles.
So Ran Min took up 200,000 Praetorian Guards, including the soldiers and horses of the Forbidden Army guards such as the Left and Right Guards, the Left and Right Wuwei, the Left and Right Xiaowei, the Left and Right Yulin Guards, and the Left and Right Qianniu Guards, 100,000 war horses, 100,000 elite foot soldiers, plus 300,000 people who were responsible for transporting grain and grass and baggage, and set off directly from Daliang and entered the land of Mobei from the first line of Daijun and Yanmen.
In addition, Ran Min also ordered to organize a servant army of 200,000 from the Andong Protectorate, led by Li Xintong, the capital protector, all the way west, across the Chifeng Mountain, and cooperate with the Wei army to attack the Xianbei people in Mobei.
In the west, Xie Ai agreed to be ordered to organize the armies of the Western Regions and the Huhu people, and form an army of 150,000 servants to advance from the Tianshan Mountains, bound to wipe out all the Xianbei people along the way.
This time, Ran Min was really moving, he couldn't help but drive the expedition in person, and he also dispatched an army of 550,000 at once, I believe that if he doesn't defeat the entire Mobei land, he will not give up!
In the past, the Han Dynasty often went deep into Mobei to fight the Huns, but the Han Dynasty did not have this condition to completely eliminate the Huns and occupied the land of Mobei, but this time, Ran Min was fully prepared.
There is no need to worry about war horses or anything, because there are a lot of Hu people and war horses attached to them, and they are not afraid of the Xianbei people who come and go like the wind. Although the land of Mobei is very large and vast, but with so many troops, the troops are divided into three ways, and it is impossible for the Xianbei people to run anymore, and it is impossible to go around in Mobei.
Anhou River, Dragon City.
This dragon city is not the capital of the Yan Kingdom in Liaodong, but the place where the royal court of the former Huns was located, and now it has been built into a decent city, with a simple palace in the center.
Since the defeat of the Wei army the year before last and the capture of Liaodong by the Wei state, Murong Jun fled to Mobei, and the strategy adopted by the Wei state is to advance step by step, build a dock fort in the Mobei area, consolidate the fortifications, and further squeeze the living space of the Hu people in the north, so Murong Jun has no choice but to move the capital to Longcheng, which is considered safe.
In the past, the four-way army of the Han Dynasty went out to unveil the curtain of counterattack against the Xiongnu. Wei Qing led his troops to attack the Huns' place of sacrifice to the heavens, Longcheng, and won the first battle, which was a great victory for Longcheng.
Although there were not many Xiongnu killed and captured in this battle, only 700 people, it was of great significance, it was the only one in the Four Route Army to win, and it was the first time that the Han Dynasty won the battle of the Xiongnu.
But this dragon city is not the dragon city.
As we all know, the Huns live by water and grass, and the Dragon City of the Holy Land of Heaven and Heaven is not fixed, so the Dragon City that Wei Qing attacked back then is not the current Dragon City.
After receiving the news that the Wei Empire had sent troops in three ways to attack Mobei, Murong Jun hurriedly summoned his ministers to the main hall for discussion.
Between the monarchs and ministers, there was relative silence for a while, and the entire hall fell into silence.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you already know the details. Wei raised a three-way army to attack me, known as a million-strong army, although there will not be so many soldiers and horses, but there is not much less! In your opinion, what should I do now? ”
Murong Jun asked his subordinates for advice.
Xiang Guo Feng Yi said: "Your Majesty, at this time of crisis, the minister has to say a word that is not kind. The Wei State is powerful, attacking Yan on three sides, and Ran Min made it clear that he had to seize the land of Mobei! With my Dayan's current military strength, it is absolutely impossible to resist the attack of the Wei army! Therefore, the minister advised, Your Majesty might as well shake hands with Wei and make peace! ”
"Summation?"
Murong Jun sneered and said, "Xiangguo, do you also know that you are not kind to this sentence? Shaking hands and making peace, you said it nicely, but in fact, you are not surrendering to the Wei State? If it were in the past, if we surrendered, it might just be as simple as ceding land and suing for peace, losing power and humiliating the country, but Ran Min dispatched so many troops, he came to destroy Dayan! I didn't come to force me to beg for mercy and force Dayan to give in! ”
Feng Yi was silent.
At this time, Murong Chui stood up and said: "Your Majesty, although all the people of my Dayan are soldiers, there are not many real soldiers who can fight, and the enemy army is at least five times that of me, and it is better than the elite. If we force a big war, our army will be unstoppable, so it is better to continue to migrate north, enter the territory of the Gaoche people, and then make plans. ”
Is this going to escape?
Murong Jun's face darkened, and he said, "Migrating north? Murong Chui, do you know that although the Gaoche people are my allies of Dayan at the moment, in fact, they are still rejecting us Xianbei people from the bottom of their hearts! Once we move north, if the Gaoche people block it, won't my Xianbei people make enemies on all sides and be directly dumpled by the enemy army? ”
Mu Yugen came out and said: "Your Majesty, since you can't sue for peace, and you can't move north, let's fight to the death with the Wei army!" Although the Wei army has a large number of troops, its troops are divided into three routes, and we can completely pour the country's troops and raise hundreds of thousands of troops to break the Wei troops one by one! ”
Without waiting for Murong Jun to speak, Xiang Guo Feng Yi jumped out and objected: "Your Majesty, don't do it!" ”
"Although the Wei army is divided into three routes, there are not a few troops. Even if we raise an army to conquer the country, I am afraid that we will not have any advantage in military strength and will not be able to take advantage of it. And once we can't attack for a long time, the other two Wei armies will complete the flanking attack on our army, and then my Dayan will really die! ”
Murong Jun's face suddenly turned as black as the bottom of the pot, and he said in a deep voice: "What do you want to do with Xiangguo?" Want Ran Min to surrender? Will I let Dayan completely lose the country? ”
Feng Yi bitterly persuaded: "Your Majesty, in fact, surrendering to Ran Min is only an expedient measure. Ran Min has the elegance of accommodating people, the Wei country is rich, the products are abundant, and there is everything, and our herdsmen in the north dream of living in the Central Plains! As long as His Majesty is willing to surrender to the Wei State, I believe that Ran Min will definitely accept it. Although Dayan has died in the country, Xianbei is still there, His Majesty's Zongmiao Sheji is still there, and he can continue to worship the spiritual seat of his ancestors! According to Ran Min's treatment of Emperor Sima Dan of the Jin Dynasty, I believe that after His Majesty returns to the Wei State, he will also be able to give the marquis gold, and enjoy endless glory and wealth for a lifetime! And we Xianbei people can continue to survive and wait for the sky to change! ”
Hearing this, Murong Jun sneered and said, "Feng Yi, you have said these words well, but they are too whimsical!" Mobei is bitterly cold, and the herdsmen are very yearning for the life of the Central Plains, but once they enter the Central Plains, are they still Xianbei people? ”
"The Han people, who are good at assimilating the Yidi of the Quartet and turning Hu into Xia, is one of the essences of their Han culture! Where did the former Dongyi, Xirong, Nanban, and Rongdi go? A lot of them have been assimilated by the Han Chinese! Not to mention anything else, since the Yongjia Rebellion, a large number of Saihu people have been assimilated by the Han Chinese! and Ran Min is not a good person, he has issued the "Killing Hu Order" several times, and has killed countless Hu people, as many as millions of people, which can be described as a butcher who kills people without blinking! What happened to the Xilianghu people who were attached to Wei before? Haven't you been forced to change your Han surname and become a Han citizen? ”
"I heard that Ran Min had promised the Hu people in Xiliang not to force them to change their Han surnames and become Han nationals, but then there was a rebellion among the Hu people who moved inward, so he became angry and forced all the Hu people in the country to change their surnames to Han and become Han nationals, and all of them were dispersed and migrated to various places according to their household registration. It can be said that in a few decades, these Hu people who have changed their Han surnames and entered the Han nationality will have no idea who their ancestors are! ”
Murong Jun said with a humiliated face: "Feng Yi, if it weren't for the fact that you were the old minister of the first king and had indelible merits to my Dayan, I very much doubt that you had accepted bribes from the Wei State and were saying good things to the Wei people!" ”
Hearing this, Feng Yi sighed and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is guilty of death!" ”
Murong Jun shook his head and said: "Feng Yi, your public loyalty to the country, your words and deeds are for my good, for the good of Dayan, otherwise if someone else said so, I would have pushed him out and cut him down a long time ago." Please don't talk about the matter of descending Wei. Dayan will never and will not die at my hands! ”
"Whoever dares to speak presumptuously about surrendering to Wei again, I will never spare it!"
