Chapter 200 - [Sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, the benefit of the fisherman]
At this time, the report of the battle reached the ears of Emperor Liao, and he was furious, so he consulted with his ministers and ordered a general in front of the tent to set off from Shangjing and lead an army of 400,000 to sweep the Huanglong Mansion.
Similarly, the army had just set off, and Murong Fu's spies in Shangjing had already passed the news. Murong Fu got the news, and he didn't dare to slack off, and immediately convened the generals to discuss the matter.
The 400,000 army came, there was nothing, with the current strength, it could hold the city, but if the Huanglong Mansion that had just been established went through war and consumed a lot of materials, it would definitely affect the hearts of the people in the city.
At the meeting, Murong Fu raised this concern, and the soldiers discussed it around, and soon someone came up with a strategy, Pang Wanchun said: "Since it is inconvenient to lead the war to Huanglong Mansion, why don't we lead the troops out of the city and ambush the enemy soldiers halfway." We have 100,000 soldiers and horses, including 20,000 elite cavalry, plus many martial arts masters, it is not difficult to kill 400,000 enemy soldiers!"
"No, this kind of approach, although it is possible to kill the enemy soldiers, our side will also suffer heavy losses, the city lord has done his best to spend a lot of money to build a strong army, and it must not be damaged because of this. "Gongzhi Qian was the first to object, now he is the governor of Huanglong Mansion, the position is only under Murong Fu, he has always participated in the construction of the army and the city of Huanglong Mansion, knowing that the construction is not easy, and he never wants to see damage.
Pang Wanchun's idea undoubtedly represented the meaning of the generals, and was refuted, and suddenly someone stood up and spoke, Yang Zhi has always been hot, and he forced Gongzhi to shout: "If this doesn't work, don't you have to wait for the enemy soldiers to kill outside the city and attack the city? In that case, wouldn't the loss be greater?"
"No, no, how can you wait for the enemy soldiers to come to attack the city, but you can't attack rashly! Bao didn't care about his family, and when he saw that someone dared to ask the public governor, he immediately came out to support, he also thought of a strategy, paused, and said loudly:
"I remember that after Qiao Feng helped the Liao Emperor of the previous dynasty to quell the rebellion, he rescued a young son of the Liao Emperor of the former dynasty and left, and tens of thousands of horses and horses were evacuated by him, and he has been hiding near the Bell River, waiting for an opportunity to regain the power of the Liao State. I see, why don't you ask the city master to send a letter to Qiao Feng, and ask him to attack Shangjing to create pressure when the Liao army is out of Beijing, so that the Liao army will not dare to come east, and it can solve the danger of my Huanglong Mansion. ”
This kind of strategy is good, but it can solve the crisis for a while, and it can't solve the long-term deadlock, Murong Fu shook his head again and again, turned his eyes, looked at Wu Yong, and asked: "Mr. Wu, I see that your face is calm, and you don't feel nervous at all, I don't know what good plan you have?"
Wu Yong really had a good plan in mind, smiled slightly, and said: "Qiyu City Lord, your subordinates have a plan, maybe you can solve the crisis forever." ”
"Speak quickly, and see if you think the same way as mine!"
Murong Fu laughed, relaxed and sat back on the throne of the city lord, with the observation of this period of time, he found that Wu Yong gradually had the ability to plot the world, and cultivated this internal founding military advisor, so that he could truly do it once and for all and transfer his energy to governing the country.
After all, it is easy to attack a city and difficult to govern a city, if he wants to recover Dayan, he must put more energy on governing the country, if he is responsible for both attacking the city and plundering the land, and also responsible for governing the city, he Murong Fu is only one person, and he can't do everything.
Wu bowed his hand, owed a slight debt to his colleagues, and said slowly: "Actually, I think that it is very simple to solve this crisis, there is no need to intercept and kill halfway, and there is no need to repair Qiao Feng, just provoke the dispute between Song and Liao, but we can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and reap the benefits of the fisherman." ”
"yes!
"Strategist, tell me what to do!"
Many voices sounded quickly, and after he reminded him, everyone seemed to have some ways to think about this aspect, but he knew that Murong Fu valued Wu Yong very much, and he didn't dare to snatch the credit from him, and waited for Wu Yong to say a specific strategy.
Wu Yonglang Lang said: "Song and Liao have been fighting for more than 100 years, and they hate each other very deeply. In this way, the city lord could give generous gifts to those traitorous officials in the Great Song Dynasty, and let them instigate the Song Emperor to send troops across the Yanmen Pass to attack the territory of the Liao State. In that way, the army of the Song State invaded the Liao State, and the Liao State faced a crisis, and there was no longer a psychological meeting with the Huanglong Mansion. ”
"Haha! Yes, Mr. Wu's plan is good, so he will follow this plan!"
Murong Fu nodded in approval, and then ordered someone to be sent to do it. Gongzhiqian suddenly came out of the column and knelt down, and said: "City Lord, although this plan is wonderful and can be done once and for all, but if the Song State invades the Liao Border, it will grow stronger in the future, and it will encroach on the territory of the Liao State, and it will inevitably attack us, absolutely not, never ......."
Gongzhiqian thought about it for a long time, but he made a big mistake, Murong Fu waved his hand and said: "Gongzhiqian, you don't need to say it! I also know your concerns, but don't worry! The Song people have always been nestled, how can they have the ability to wipe out the territory of the Liao State, once they start a war with the Liao State, they will not be able to destroy the Liao State for a while and a half. And with such time for me to develop, in a few years, I will definitely be able to unify the three eastern provinces and lay a good foundation, are you still afraid that he will be the Great Liao or the Great Song Dynasty?"
"That's right, what the city lord said is true!" Yang Zhi immediately stood up and spoke, remembering some indignant things, "The Song court is mediocre, appointing traitors, there are no famous generals and ministers in power, and there is no such ability." If there were generals of the Yang family in command as they did a few decades ago, it might still be possible! Now, it is simply impossible, and once a war with the Liao State starts, it will definitely take several years or even decades to fight. ”
"Okay! I've made up my mind, so I'll act according to Mr. Wu's plan!"
Murong Fu got up and announced the order, terminated the discussion of this matter, and then personally ordered Wu Yong, Gongzhi Qian, and Bao Wei to sneak into the Song State together, waiting for an opportunity to buy adulterous ministers to encourage the Song court to send troops.
Murong Fu dared to guarantee that this plan would definitely succeed.
Sure enough, half a month later, I heard the news that the Song Dynasty army crossed the Yanmen Pass to attack Liaodi.
In fact, when the Liao civil strife and the emperor were in a different position, it was when the foundation was unstable, and those traitorous ministers proposed to go to war, and the main battle faction of the Song court, which had been enduring for many years, was overjoyed.
So for the first time, the chaotic Song Dynasty reached a rare consensus, so it was a matter of course for the Song Emperor to send troops.
Hearing that the Song army crossed the Yanmen Pass and invaded the territory of the Liao State, the newly appointed Liao Emperor was in a hurry, where did he still have the heart to deal with the Huanglong Mansion, and immediately recruited back the soldiers and horses sent out to attack the Huanglong Mansion, and ordered all of them to be sent to the front line to officially start a war with the Song army.
In this way, Murong Fu became self-reliant according to the Huanglong Mansion, and invisibly had a few years of stable life.
............
In the spring of the following year, Abi gave birth in a peaceful atmosphere in Huanglong Mansion, and Murong Fu's eldest son was born. At this time, Huanglong Mansion was thriving under a year's construction and governance, and had developed into a large city with prosperous agriculture and commerce.
Murong Fu was happy to have a beloved son and named him Murong Xing, which was a sign of his thriving great cause of recovering the country.
After another 100 days, after celebrating Murong Xing's 100th birthday, Murong Fu wanted to capture a large territory for his son as a 100-day gift, so he personally led 20,000 cavalry, 50,000 infantry, and 20,000 sailors to attack Goryeo.
Goryeo is not far from Hwangryong, separated only by Changbai Mountain and the Yalu River. The march is not long, if it can be attacked, it can be used as a reserve supply place, and it can be retreated to live in peace and build a happy land, and now the Song and Liao wars are urgent, and there is nothing else to do for the time being, so it is natural to go to the Goryeo Kingdom under his command.
