Things gather like and people are grouped.

Su Yan, as Ran Min's henchman, is naturally not an ordinary person.

In Changshan, the strong wall cleared the wilderness, abandoned the other seven counties, and retreated to Zhending.

Murong Chui didn't look at the other cities, and the army went straight to Zhending, deep ditches and high bases, besieging them to the death.

Su Yan was not without reinforcements, Xu Cheng's 3,000 elite Black Cloud Army was stationed in Changshan, and later another 2,000 men and horses were added.

Shangdang Gao Yun and Feng An's two divisions passed through Fukou and feinted to attack Handan, Xiangguo and other places, although the three teams were not many, but they were all elite, Gao Yun and Xu Cheng were Li Yue's valued generals, and the front was not the opponent of Murong Chui's 130,000 army, but it was still possible to contain the attack on the side.

And Murong Chui was not in a hurry to attack Zhending, he kept besieging but not attacking, just dragging it out.

He is not in a hurry, and Li Yue is not in a hurry, to see who can consume it.

If the Murong clan only had this ability, then they were destined to return home in this battle.

Once Murong Chui, Mu Yugen, and Yue Wan are exhausted, the Yecheng army will pour out.

The war clouds in Hebei are thick, but the south of the river has long been full of vitality.

The spring ploughing began in full swing, and it was not affected in any way, and the only impact was the scouts and heralds who came and went.

The people have long been accustomed to cultivating the fields with peace of mind.

The first to attack was Jiangdong, Xun Xian and Yuan Zhen stormed Hefei, Liang Xiao and Jia Jian were strictly defended, and the Jin army did not take advantage for a moment.

After Yao Yisheng was stationed in Liang County, Zhu Xu retreated to Wancheng, and the crisis in Yuzhou was resolved.

Yao Xiang sent Yao Chang 8,000 elite horsemen north to Yecheng to help in the battle.

"On the orders of my brother, I will be dispatched by His Highness!" As soon as Yao Chang met, he knelt on one knee and was very respectful.

However, his long, slanted eyes always make people a little uncomfortable, and it always feels like he is calculating something.

"The lonely south conquers the northern war, and today I know the faith of the Yao family!" Li Yue was impressed by Yao Xiang.

This man is really righteous, everyone else is watching, only he is really carrying a knife to support.

It is no wonder that after entering Luozhou, the people of Xia and Yi from far and near brought the old and the young to help each other.

"My brother often said that when my family was cornered, it was His Royal Highness King Liang who ignored the past suspicions and made my family have a place to stay.

"General Yao has a heart, but he can enter the city for a while."

Although Yao Xiang's support for himself was also out of political needs, Li Yue still felt this intention.

"Come to the battle, go to Changshan, wait to repel the Yan thief, and then drink with His Highness." Yao Chang was impassioned.

After that, he bowed his hand to Li Yue, turned over and got on his horse, and walked towards the north without looking back.

Eight thousand Qiang rode a dragon and a tiger leaped, following closely behind.

"The Yao brothers have the style of Yao Yizhong, and if they have a son, they will rise one day." Liu Qun said with emotion.

He was a minister in the same hall as Yao Yizhong, and he was also an old man with Yao.

Li Yue looked at Yao Chang's back thoughtfully......

With Yao Chang joining the battle, Changshan's overall situation is in a stalemate.

During this period, Murong Trai launched three fierce attacks on Zhending, and Su Yan's son Su Quan took the lead and fought in front of him, repelling Murong Trai's onslaught.

The Yan army was strong in the field, and its siege ability was not outstanding.

After repelling the three onslaughts of the Yan army, the people who were originally wavering also became firm, coupled with the attacks of Xu Cheng and Yao Chang, the defenders saw the arrival of reinforcements, and their morale was greatly boosted.

However, just when Changshan withstood the onslaught of the Yan army, Zhang Ping of Bingzhou finally couldn't sit still, and 30,000 troops came out of Jingcheng, occupied Luquan, and observed the battle of Zhending up close.

When they came, Murong Chui didn't dare to take it lightly, and he had to divide an army to defend Zhang Ping.

Murong Chui's strategy of besieging the city to help was a failure.

Li Yuetie was determined to shrink in Yecheng and sit and watch the situation in Hebei.

"The Murong clan will not invest new troops, but I am afraid that this time it will be in vain." Cui Hong's tone became relaxed.

However, Li Yue is not as optimistic as him, and another general of Yan Guo has not yet made a move, so it is too early to talk about victory or defeat now.

"The real is virtual, the virtual is the real, Murong Ke's 20,000 troops are stationed in Shuzhou, what is the plan?" Li Yue saw through Murong Ke's strategy to besiege the city and send reinforcements, but he couldn't see through Murong Ke's plan.

It stands to reason that the threat of these 20,000 troops to Lukou is really limited.

Qin Biao and Mi Jin went north to harass, but Murong Ke couldn't hold out.

Yang Luo came to report that Lu Hu had been with Yan Guomei recently.

"The minister doesn't know what Murong Ke wants." Cui Hong stared at the map carefully for a long time, and was frustrated.

"Murong Ke has been famous for one or two decades, if you can see it, it is enough to be a generation of famous generals."

"Your Highness is very true." Cui Hong habitually touched his nose, but there was a young man's unconvincing in his eyes.

For Li Yue, as long as the status quo is maintained, it will be a huge victory, and blocking the Murong clan in the north is tantamount to fighting for development opportunities for the Central Plains.

For now, it's up to anyone to hold their breath.

The Hebei War naturally attracted the attention of everyone in the world.

After almost a month of stalemate, another team joined the fray.

Tuoba Shiyi sent his brother Tuoba Gu to lead an army of 20,000 to the south to support Murong Trai on the battlefield of Zhending.

Tuoba and Murong had just been married, sleeping in a bed on both sides, and naturally wearing a pair of pants.

In addition to Tuoba Gu, Tuoba Shiyijian led an army of 60,000 into Dai County and looked at Hebei.

Liu Qun said: "Back then, Tuoba Shiyiqian was hostage in Qianzhao, Tuoba entered Yecheng alone, asked to replace Tuoba Shiyiqian as a hostage, Shi Hu followed it, and left this person in Yecheng as a hostage for thirteen years, he liked to read military books, he was brave and strategic, and it was really a trouble for our army!" ”

"Could it be that the Murong clan is really in Changshan?" Cui Hong began to doubt his previous judgment.

Murong Ke has never ended, which does make people suspect that he is just a suspicious soldier.

And Tuoba Gu's troops, many descendants of Liu Kun back then, were very good at attacking and defending cities, and their participation made the battlefield situation biased in favor of the Yan army.

Su Yan's pleas for help became more and more, and his words became more and more tragic each time.

"Nearly 200,000 thieves will be rejected alone, the oil in the city will run out, the casualties will be exhausted, and within ten days, it will fall into ......"

"The thieves besieged on all sides, arrows and stones rained down, the walls collapsed, and the ministers had to fill the ...... with flesh and blood"

"Since they are besieged from all sides, how can they let the letter for help be sent? Murong will lure me north! Li Yue threw the letter for help on the ground, more convinced of his own judgment.

Murong Chui and Tuoba Gu are mostly cavalry, how can they let the letter for help be sent so easily?

Either they released it on purpose, or the letter was not written by Su Yan at all.

From another angle, Changshan will be lost if he loses it, and it is not fatal to Liang Guo.

If Li Yue's army went north, if he couldn't quickly defeat Murong Chui, Mu Yugen, Yuewan, Tuoba Gu and other forces, who could resist Murong Ke?

At that time, Murong Ke will be alive, and he can attack Lukou, or he can rush to Changshan and besiege himself like besieging Ran Min.

Li Yue not only did not rescue Chang Shan, but also ordered Xu Cheng, Gao Yun, Feng An, and Yao Chang to retreat quickly when they saw that the situation was not good.

In a big war, someone always has to make sacrifices, and it is impossible to lose nothing.

Li Yue can afford this price.
