Murong Bao gritted his teeth: "King of Liaoxi, don't forget that Murong Lin, a traitor, has also gone to King Fan Yang. My original intention to King Fan Yang was to stick to Yecheng and conquer Qilu, but he directly
He abandoned the defense of Yecheng and crossed the Yellow River with his entire army. Obviously he wanted to occupy Qilu and become independent. If he really allowed him to take over Hebei again, then I, the emperor, would not take him lightly. Back then, the late emperor fought with Xiyan.
I am afraid that the past will happen again, so Hebei must be recovered by my own hands. I will lose it and gain it myself. Only in this way can I be worthy of being a descendant of the Murong family. Only in this way can I have the dignity to see the late emperor under the Nine Springs!"
Murong Nong was about to speak again, but suddenly someone next to him stopped him. He stood up and said loudly to Murong Bao: "Your Majesty is wise and powerful. He is worthy of being the proud son of our Murong clan in Great Yan. If the late Emperor sees you
If you are still ambitious even in the face of adversity, you will definitely be very pleased. If you are not talented at the end, you will be willing to lead the troops in person and pioneer for Your Majesty!"
Murong Bao took a closer look and saw a strong man eight feet tall, muscular and bearded. It was Mu Yuteng, the general of the Fu army. He was also the fierce general who Murong Hui stayed in Longcheng. After Murong Hui's defeat, this man
General Yuan Meng also surrendered to Murong Bao. Because he had been a subordinate of the rebels and had never fought against the Wei army, he did not have the fear of Wei that is common among Yan army generals now. Therefore, at this time, he took the initiative to send troops to attack.
Murong Bao laughed: "General Mu Yu, I am very satisfied with your loyalty and bravery. Although Murong Hui rebelled, none of the Longcheng soldiers followed him in rebellion. I will give you an opportunity to counterattack Hebei and make contributions.
shame!"
Mu Yu Teng had an excited face and was about to speak when he heard a cold, clear voice behind him: "General Mu Yu, make sure that all your subordinates are like you and are willing to leave their hometown in Longcheng.
Is it time to counterattack Hebei and fight the powerful Wei army?"
Murong Bao's expression changed. He saw a young general who was about twenty-two or thirty years old and very heroic. He came out to salute: "My dear father, please think twice. The military morale and morale are not ready yet. Don't force yourself to do this."
Yes."
This person was none other than Murong Bao's eldest son, Murong Sheng, who had been a hostage in Xiyan for many years. Murong Sheng escaped from Chang'an City during the Qin-Yan War at a young age and followed the Xiyan army for many years.
As Murong Yong's vanguard, he attacked Luoyang and fought against Liu Yu. Afterwards, he keenly felt that the situation was not right. He escaped from the Xiyan army with his uncle Murong Rou. As soon as he left, Murong Yong massacred Murong Chui.
All Xiyan's nephews and nephews had a hard time escaping.
After returning to Houyan, Murong Chui also praised his little grandson more. However, because of his status as a concubine, Murong Chui was more interested in Murong Bao's other legitimate son Murong Hui. Before his death, he asked Murong Chui to make Murong Hui the crown prince. This made Murong Chui
Sheng was extremely dissatisfied and tried to persuade Murong Bao many times with the evil-minded Murong Lin. Murong Bao happened to be doting on the biological mother of his youngest son Murong Ce, so he changed Murong Ce to be the crown prince and sent Murong Hui to guard Longcheng. This also planted the seeds.
Later, Murong Hui conspired to rebel and cause disastrous consequences.
To this day, Murong Sheng, who has been following Murong Bao, has taken over Murong Hui's position and has become a prince with a strong military, self-respect and outstanding status. He has recently married Lan Han, the leader of the local clan, the Lan clan.
The youngest daughter was given the title of King of Changle, Shangshu Zuopushe, General of the Northern Expedition, and guarded Longcheng with guards and horses.
Murong Bao frowned, looked at Murong Sheng, and said: "Sheng'er, you have always been by my side, how can you know the morale of the Longcheng army? Could it be that you know the soldiers better than General Teng, who has always been Murong Hui's deputy?
What’s on their mind?”
Murong Sheng looked at Mu Yu Teng and said coldly: "General Teng has always been in a high position, but ordinary soldiers only think about their wives, children, property, and the cattle and sheep fields in Longcheng. It is not easy for them to go to war.
I remember the last time the Wei army invaded, Murong Hui sent 10,000 Longcheng soldiers and horses to help, but the generals who led the troops were delayed in advancing. It was not until General Yu Chong personally led his troops to fight and defeated the Wei army's vanguard that the army took advantage of the victory.
Covered up the killing and repulsed the Northern Wei's pursuers. Right, General Yu."
Yu Chong, who was standing at the bottom, smiled slightly: "What King Changle said makes sense. The soldiers of Longcheng have lived in the north for many years, and their family and property are here. If they protect their homes and the country, there is no problem. But if they have to work on an expedition, they will have to leave here.
Thousands of miles away, I'm afraid many people are unwilling. And to be honest, since participating in the First Battle of Hebei, Longcheng's soldiers and horses have been ordered to come to the rescue many times, and most of the ordinary soldiers have been frequently drafted. It can be said that people are at ease now.
If you don't want to go on an expedition, please think again."
Murong Bao gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "But have you ever thought about it, the Wei army is also facing the same problem now. It has been more than a year since they invaded, and the soldiers from all departments are also thinking about returning home. This time after Tuoba Gui captured Zhongshan, even
We were unable to pursue me and King Fan Yang any longer, so we successfully moved in one direction from the south to the other from the north. Now that we have settled down, Wei Dog is the main force and has returned to the grassland. If we don't take the opportunity to regain our homeland, I'm afraid we won't be able to do so again in the future.
Such an opportunity!”
An old voice sounded: "Your Majesty is right. King Fan Yang has just arrived outside the main hall to meet with Your Majesty!"
Murong Bao's eyes lit up, and he saw a short old man in his seventies with a beard and hair like snow, wearing a sheepskin jacket, holding a walking stick, and walking tremblingly into the hall. Now even Murong Bao stood up
He got up and said, "King Dunqiu, why are you here?"
Murong Sheng stepped forward, held the sleeve of the old man's robe, and said respectfully: "My son-in-law has met my father-in-law."
This person is none other than Lan Han, the leader of the Lan tribe. The Lan tribe is a large tribe that has lived in Longcheng for many years. It has been on good terms with the Murong tribe for many years. At that time, Murong Chui's father Murong Huang married Lan Han's sister.
Concubine Lan gave birth to Murong Chui, and after Murong Chui established the Queen Yan, he also respected Concubine Lan as the first empress. After all, even Murong Bao would call Lan Han his uncle and grandfather.
Lan Han got a daughter in his old age, named Lan Fang. She was two decades old and her reputation spread far and wide. The nobles from the surrounding tribes kept begging for her hand in marriage, but none of them wanted to marry her. They always wanted to marry a hero in the world. Murong Murong said the day before yesterday.
When Sheng pacified the Murong Hui Rebellion, he was the first to rush into Longcheng and ordered thousands of rebels to surrender. His heroic appearance on the battlefield captured Lan Fang's heart. When he turned around, he asked his elderly father to make the decision to marry him.
Murong Sheng, so the Murong and Lan families strengthened their marriage in this way, which can be said to be a close relationship, and Lan Han was also conferred the title of King Dunqiu by Murong Bao, as the minister of law, in charge of the government affairs.
