Chapter 694: The slave is about to go on a journey
Xie An said sternly: "The one who attacked Murong Chong was Dou Chong, the left general of the Qin State. This man was also a veteran on the battlefield for many years. He was mature and prudent and fought steadily. Murong Chong was defeated and many of his subordinates were routed. Only about 8,000 people were left.
The cavalry originally wanted to go east to Murong Chui, but after hearing the news of Murong Hong's victory, he immediately led the rest of his troops to surrender. The two armies joined forces to break through Tongguan and invade the center of Guanzhong. Although Dou Chong won, the victory in Hedong was not enough to solve the problem.
Due to the urgent need in Guanzhong, we had no choice but to lead our troops back to Guanzhong."
Liu Yu said with a smile: "In this way, the key to victory or defeat in Guanzhong lies in whether Murong's Xianbei troops can attack Chang'an? If I were Yao Chang, I would stand still and sit on the mountain to watch the tigers fight.
With Fu Jian's military strength, it would be very difficult to defeat the Xianbei Murong clan's army."
Xie An smiled and said: "But Yao Chang did not completely stand still. After he raised his army in Lingbei, he had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. For unknown reasons, he also marched to Chang'an. Maybe he had private contacts with Murong Hong. He wanted to
We need to attack Chang'an from both sides and seize the jade seal in advance."
Liu Yu nodded: "It seems that this is the only explanation. This jade seal can win the hearts of the people. If he believes that Fu Jian is going to be defeated, he will definitely seize this thing before Murong Hong. But no matter how weak Fu Jian is, after all
Having been operating in Guanzhong for many years, people's hearts are also turning towards him. It is not easy to eat him in one go."
Xie An looked at Liu Yu and said seriously: "So we have to hurry up. Originally, I wanted to arrange for you to go home and meet your family members you haven't met for many years. I also bought some slaves and arranged work at home to avoid worries.
But now it seems that we can’t give you this time, and we need you to leave immediately and go with Murong Lan to get the jade seal.”
Liu Yu lowered his voice and said, "Can you really trust Murong Lan? When she was talking to me just now, she said it was to enforce the covenant, to prevent Yao Chang from getting it, and to avoid getting married.
I really can’t tell which sentence about making love on the grassland is true and which sentence is false.”
Xie An smiled slightly and looked at Liu Yu: "Xiao Yu, of course I understand your worries, but have you ever thought about what benefits Murong Lan will gain if she wants to lie to us? Doesn't she have to have this jade seal because of you?
Do you know the topography of Qin Palace, or are you proficient in information from various agencies?"
Liu Yu scratched his head: "It doesn't seem to be the case. I can't fight the war alone. Instead, I have to rely entirely on their local power. So, do they really want to cooperate with our Dajin clan?"
Xie An sneered and said: "Of course they don't have any good intentions. Fu Jian's defeat is doomed, sooner or later. Obtaining the jade seal will allow Murong Hong and the others to fight fiercely with Yao Chang in Guanzhong. Neither side can inherit the Qin Dynasty."
The authentic jade seals of the country are all rebels, and they need dog to bite dog for a while. Murong Chui and Murong Chui can buy time to establish their own power in Guandong. Moreover, sooner or later, the Murong family will fight among themselves again, let alone Murong Wei's family.
There is a chance to take back the jade seal and wash away the responsibility for the country's subjugation."
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "In the final analysis, it is for the sake of the Murong clan. If you decide to expedition north to Hebei and capture Yecheng, you will become the enemy of Murong Chui. How will I get along with Murong Lan here?"
Xie An said sternly: "This woman is highly skilled in martial arts, proficient in cavalry tactics, and in my opinion, she also has a somewhat chivalrous heart. She may not be unable to submit to our Jin Dynasty. Along the way, you and her will find ways to show her affection and move her."
Yili, her eldest brother can send her to the grassland and train her as a killer since she was a child. This Murong family has no kindness to her. If you can make her come and submit to my Jin Dynasty, she will naturally be prosperous and wealthy.
By the way, because of her reasons, we can also be lenient to the Murong clan, as long as we don't make enemies of the Jin Dynasty in the Central Plains, break up the land and seal the territory, and guard it hereditary, it's not a bad idea."
Liu Yu sighed: "I'm afraid it will be difficult. Crossing the Yellow River to attack Yan State will actually mean that we have betrayed our alliance. I'm afraid I won't be able to face Murong Lan's accusation."
Xie An's face darkened and he sneered: "Xiao Yu, when did you become such a mother-in-law? Murong Lan betrayed you twice in a row. Have you ever been so unrelenting with her? Okay, let's not talk about the relationship between the two of you.
, Just talking about state affairs, this Murong clan has been my vassal for many years in the Jin Dynasty. From a small tribe in Liaodong, we helped us become a powerful force dominating Liaodong. During the Yongjia Rebellion and the Shenzhou Lu Shen, the Murong clan did not send troops to rescue them.
They watched the fire from the other side, and many years later, they took advantage of the war in the north to invade the south and claim the throne as emperor. This alone was enough to kill all the Murong clan, male and female. For the sake of the overall situation, we will not care about the Murong clan for the time being.
We have betrayed and cooperated with them again and again in the past, but what is the result? They still want to use us again and again to realize their ambition of restoring the country. After they return to the country, they will be respectful and friendly to the Jin Dynasty? They will always use the Yellow River as their boundary.
Allies? Do you believe it?"
Liu Yu was speechless when asked, and after a long while, he sighed: "Your Majesty, your husband is right, I was confused for a moment, and I got it wrong. However, Murong Lan should not be such a person, she and Murong Chui are still
Different.”
Xie An said coldly: "She is just a woman, a killer, and a chess piece. She cannot decide military and national affairs. She can't even decide her own destiny. Murong Chui is the one who leads the Yan Kingdom. The land of Hebei, within the Great Wall
, has always been the territory of the Jin Dynasty, and the people on these lands are mostly Han people. We have no reason to give these places to the rebels to build the country. In addition, as I just said, Murong Chuixiong has a rough strategy. Once he is allowed to rule
Once we have established a foothold in the area, it will be difficult for us to regain it. The land in Guanzhong will be in war for a long time anyway, and the longer it remains strong, the better. We can take it slow for a while, but this land in Hebei must be taken first.
!”
Liu Yu nodded and said seriously: "I understand. Murong Lan and I will obtain the jade seal as soon as possible and return as soon as possible. By then, I hope to catch up with the great cause of the Northern Expedition."
Xie An's expression softened slightly and nodded: "Moreover, we will capture Guanzhong sooner or later in the future. After all, it is the old capital since the Qin and Han Dynasties, and Guanzhong is a place where the old Qin people have the reputation of being kings, and it is also a place of great beauty.
, If you can win it, you can win the world. When you enter Guanzhong this time, you must observe the mountains and rivers there and the dangerous fortresses, so that you can use it one day."
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "I understand. Then I'll set off now. However, since I can't go back to Jingkou, I also hope to tell my friend and ask him to bring a message, saying that I am going on a mission and can't go home for the time being.
So as not to worry the family. And..." At this point, Liu Yu's face turned slightly red. He wanted to say goodbye to Wang Miaoyin, but he stopped talking and was too embarrassed to speak.
Xie An smiled slightly: "Don't worry, Miaoyin, I have arranged for her to stay home for three months, so she won't disturb you. You can go on your way with peace of mind. When you come back this time, I will personally preside over your marriage!"
