Tao Yuanming stared and gritted his teeth and said: "What else can you say? Isn't it just to plead for mercy through Murong Lan? What if Jin and Nan Yan were to fight, both sides would lose, and the Northern Yan would miss Wei, and let Chu take advantage of it.
Class. Oh, by the way, get up. Huan Xuan once threatened that he would use you as a general to conquer the Central Plains in the north and regain the lost territory. This also included Southern Yan as the target. Humph, it was all for these barbarians.
Just leave an excuse to send troops!
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "This time you got a small part right. Yes, one of Murongde's excuses for sending troops was indeed because Huan Xuan once went to the court and said he wanted to go to the Northern Expedition, but that was just a pretense. He went to
At the same time, he ordered Sima Dezong to issue an edict, saying that since the Jin Dynasty had been in war for many years and needed to recuperate, the Northern Expedition was not allowed.
One of Murongde's excuses for engaging in military lectures was indeed to prevent and counter Huan Xuan's Northern Expedition. However, after gathering his troops, he simply said he would pre-emptively invade the south.
At this point, Liu Yu changed his subject: "However, these are just excuses. How can we need these to conquer the world? When Nanyan invaded Qingzhou and eliminated the Pichuang clan's separatist regime, how was it ever offended by the Pilu clan?
, have you ever invaded?
"Murong De dared to send troops southward for two real reasons. Internally, he wanted to appease and satisfy the desire of the Xianbei nobles for conquest. Externally, he also wanted to take advantage of the fact that I had just raised an army to overthrow Huan Xuan and restore the Jin Dynasty. We internally did not want to
Let's see if we can take advantage when it's stable.
"After all, Jiangbei has been a semi-abandoned area of the Jin Dynasty for a long time. Although it cannot provide much resources, it is still a thousand-mile territory. If it can be captured, it will also be a large strategic rear area. If we take the opportunity, we can seize Yuzhou and fill it as a state.
, then Nanyan can be considered to have the land of Jianghuai, and its strategic situation will be far stronger than when only the land of Qilu is left.
"It's just that, although he speaks boldly, he is still cautious. The strength of the Beifu Army is not something he can ignore. Even if there are only tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, if he is in my hands, I will still be able to defeat him or fight him.
Because of his ability to maintain a stalemate, he sent out troops with great momentum, but the actual speed of the advance was very slow. He did not even send a large army to seize the Dafan Mountain Pass and the Muling Pass area, which showed that he actually had two sides and did not want a full-scale invasion.
of.
Tao Yuanming sneered and said: "It's not that simple. I remember that it was Liu Jingxuan who caused the trouble. He actually wanted to assassinate Murongde and seize the land of Nanyan. This led to the Nanyan army's southern expedition. This matter is known to the whole world. Is it possible?
Do you still want to avoid talking about it?
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "I still said the same thing. Piluhun neither assassinated Murongde nor threatened to regain the land of Houyan in Hebei, but he was attacked and destroyed by Murongde who fled after the country was destroyed. The excuse was
Things that only men of letters can do, but for these warlords and commanders, it just depends on whether they want to do it or not. Finally, I went to Murong De to tell him that Ah Shou is my brother, and his business is my business, even if he commits a crime
No matter how big a mistake he made, I would apologize on his behalf and bear all this for him.
Tao Yuanming laughed: "What a loud tone. Liu Yu, who do you think you are? Who do you think Liu Jingxuan is? He is just a desperate dog forced by Huan Xuan. He fled to Nanyan and was taken in by Murong De.
You want to protect such an ignorant and virtuous person?
Liu Yu nodded firmly and said: "I will protect you. No matter how big a mistake Ah Shou makes, he is still my brother. Moreover, I later found out that this was the black robe causing trouble in the middle, pretending to be Gao Yazhi."
Come to instigate him to assassinate Murong De, and use Nanyan soldiers and horses to seek revenge against Huan. In any case, there is really no reason to defend Ah Shou in this matter, but he is my brother, and I will bear his heinous crime.
"Carry it? Can you carry it? Without Mu Tao Yuanming sneered: Rong Lan interceded for you, Murong De would have withdrawn? Stop dreaming, you just have a good wife.
Liu Yu shook his head: "It has nothing to do with Alan. What really makes Murongde dare not march is the strength of our Jin Dynasty. I can raise an army with two thousand people to overthrow the Huanxuan throne with more than 100,000 troops, and conquer the world for many years.
The invincible Jingzhou Corps was wiped out in one fell swoop. After a few days of fighting, he had no choice but to flee back to Jingzhou. Do you know what this means in the eyes of Murongde, who has been fighting all his life?
Tao Yuanming's expression changed, and he shook his head and said: "You just relied on the Beifu Army's defection before the battle to win by chance. It seems that Huan Chu's army is very weak."
There are more than 10,000, but more than half of them are former Beifu troops. If they hadn't helped you, how could you have won?"
Liu Yu laughed: "But I had the ability to defeat Huanxuan's most elite Chu army of tens of thousands with 2,000 Jingkou old troops in advance, forcing Huanxuan to take the risk of defection and combine the Beifu army with Chu.
The rest of the army was mixed together and sent to the battlefield. In the end, as you said, the entire army was annihilated. Nanyan's troops seemed to be more than 400,000, but the 300,000 or so were just strong men from the Han wealthy families in Qingzhou.
In Murongde's view, these are just like the Beifu Army under Huan Xuan, whose stance may change at any time due to changes in the war.
"This was the case in the Battle of Feishui back then. The Qin army seemed to have millions of troops, but the troops of other clans were just bluffing to preserve their own strength. Only the clan army led by Fu Rong fought to the death. As long as we defeat this
The Qin army of more than 200,000 clans can completely defeat Fu Jian. Murongde is also facing the same trouble. If we attack us head-on and the war is unfavorable, the entire army may collapse and change.
Tao Yuanming said solemnly: "You only had 30,000 to 40,000 troops in your hands at that time. You had to divide your troops to defend in various places. You also had to send troops to the west to attack Xiang Xuan. You couldn't even concentrate your troops to fight the Yan army for a decisive battle. Why are you talking so loudly?
Can you defeat even hundreds of thousands of Xianbei cavalry? If I were Murongde, I would just regard your bluff as fart and directly attack with my army!
Liu Yu laughed: "You are right. Murongde did tell me this when we were negotiating at Mulingguan, but I also made it clear to him that if he felt that he was sure to win, he would
If a place like the Jianghuai River with crisscrossed waterways could destroy me just like Piluhun was destroyed, then we can come here and, like Fu Jian, risk the life and death of the entire Nanyan to see if we can succeed.
Tao Yuanming's eyes were gleaming and he was speechless. "Let me tell you, Tao Liuyu stood up and said loudly: Yuanming, husband fights with courage. Murong De already proved one thing when he came to negotiate with me."
The thing is that his subordinates, including the Xianbei soldiers, did not want to fight!
