Chapter 43: The Rebellion in Buyeo is finally settled
King Yan read it in a hurry, but he was tired and drunk today, so he just sat heavily on the imperial couch, and it took a long time to recover.
"Why don't you report it early!" King Yan helped Ping Ji up and shouted angrily. Uncle Ping just knelt on the ground, terrified.
Murong Jun said from the side: "Father, I saw that my father had just finished the banquet, so I asked Uncle Ping to report back later."
"Fuyu, a small country, originally wanted to live in peace and harmony, but now it dares to invade our border, and it just happened to destroy him." King Yan was about to stand up, but suddenly he said "cough, cough" and sat down again. Down.
When Murong Jun saw that King Yan was ill, he stood in front of King Yan and said, "My son is willing to lead the army for my father and share the worries of my king."
King Yan looked at him deeply and said worriedly: "You have never fought in a war, how can you lead an army?"
"Father, don't worry. Although I have never led an army, there are many army leaders in my generation. Murong Jun, Murong Biao, Murong Ke, etc. are all generals in charge of the army. Mu Yugen, a member of the Kinzhi royal family, is also a veteran general in the army. My son I, the whole country of Yan, should take care of each other, accept advice with an open mind, and be lenient to the subordinates. Besides, the small country of Fuyu is now ready to test its skills."
"It's good that the Crown Prince has such thoughts." King Yan was delighted, and King Yan thought: The Crown Prince has always been dark, but now the state of Yan has a great atmosphere. Gu Gang rebuked Song Gai, Murong Ping and others who were close to him, but the Crown Prince did not argue with them. He only accepts it wholeheartedly, which is a sign of his sincerity. King Yan carefully looked at this handsome man again, and now the prince gradually showed the image of a human king.
"Among my peers, your Kedi and Badi are the ones who know the most about military matters. If you have any questions, please ask for advice. Don't use your identity as the prince to bully others." King Yan looked directly at the prince, thought for a while and said, "If there is anything, What's unclear...Forget it, the Yan army in Longcheng will be handed over to your command. You first go to Xiangping City to plan with Murong Ke. Soldiers and important national affairs must be cautious."
"My father, the king, and his ministers know that my brother is wise and brave, and he is guarding Liaodong far and near. In the past few days, Goguryeo gradually seemed to be regrouping. Ke's brother took the lead and conquered southern Su. He sent soldiers to guard it, and finally controlled the heart of Goguryeo. Let him put an end to the thought of resurrecting his life. I will lead the troops to go to war tomorrow, and I will humbly ask my brother for advice." Murong Jun bowed and bowed and exited the palace of King Yan.
King Yan called out: "Your Majesty, it is very good that you can see the subtle details like this. Now when you go to Liaodong, you should take care of yourself."
Watching the prince gradually go away, Pingbo said: "Your Majesty, you are most interested in Murong Ba. You can use the Fuyu war to summon Yandu. This will kill two birds with one stone."
"Since ancient times, Prince Kuang has done nothing wrong in establishing a legitimate son. If he favors the younger son and deposes the legitimate son, he may be afraid of the collapse of the country." Since Murong Han's death, the King of Yan is now suffering from serious illnesses and hidden diseases. He is gradually unable to do what he wants. If he wants the Yan State to be able If the country is stable, the clan must be safe.
"The Liji Rebellion, the changes in the sand dunes, the disaster caused by Emperor Wu's witchcraft, and the chaos in the country and bad governance all started with the dethronement of the former crown prince. Unless it is absolutely necessary, Murong Jun will not be dethroned as the crown prince. You don't have to say anything."
"Your Majesty, this old slave deserves to die. You are all lying." Uncle Ping bowed down and apologized.
King Yan then thought about it and said: "Ping Bogu didn't mean to rebuke you. Among all the disciples, I prefer this Ba'er. Today we are holding a grand banquet for the king of Yan State. Murong Ba is unable to go to the capital of Yan because of his duties. In a few days, you will send The envoy sends his greetings to Murong Ba and looks at his political achievements during his tenure in Tuhe?"
Uncle Ping stood up slowly, cupped his hands and said, "As parents, you have to think deeply. The tyrant master will definitely understand the good intentions of my king."
While he was talking, he saw a chamberlain hurriedly entering, "Your Majesty, Shaofu Tuhe has given you a secret report."
"Quick, bring it quickly." King Yan ordered Pingbo to hurry up and submit the report to the general.
I saw King Yan read it, and his frowning eyebrows relaxed, and he happily said to Bo Ping: "Ba'er is no longer entrusted to me. Now this Tuhe River has become an iron wall, and Zhao has repeatedly invaded, but there is no advantage at all." King Yan said.
With that said, he handed the report to Uncle Ping.
"Now that the civil war in Zhao is imminent, the country is vehemently respecting Buddhism. It is reported that Wu Jin said to Shi Hu: "Hu's fortunes will decline and Jin will revive. It is better to serve the Jin people hard to get rid of his anger." Now the people of Zhao are filled with resentment.
The people and families fled in all directions, and there were not a few who entered our country of Yan via the Tu River." After King Yan said this, he was very excited and could not sleep. He got up and walked to the courtyard, with Uncle Ping serving at his side.
"However, Jie Zhao is still arrogant. Shihu sent Deng Heng, the general who conquered the east, to station tens of thousands of troops in Le'an, and prepared siege equipment, intending to invade our country of Yan. The lonely Ba'er personally risked the arrows, armed himself with strong weapons, and made a surprise attack
Le'an burned all the siege equipment. Later, Deng Heng wanted to capture Tuhe to save his face. Murong Ba fought with him for dozens of times, but Deng Heng could not get any advantage. Now in the land of Youzhou, Ba'er's name has been heard
Be timid before fighting. For example, in the Three Kingdoms period, the children in Jiangdong did not dare to cry at night when they heard Zhang Liao's name. Ba'er has a great reputation." After saying that, he waved to Uncle Ping and pointed to the high platform in the palace and said, "Follow me to the high platform and watch at night.
I am Yanjing."
Uncle Ping said worriedly: "Your Majesty, the wind is strong at night, please don't go?"
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." King Yan still decided to go, "When the others retreat, I will leave you to serve."
King Yan climbed to the high platform of the royal city at night. This high platform faced south and was surrounded by green mountains in the north. King Yan looked to the north at the majestic mountains stretching for thousands of miles. Looking south to the whole view of Longcheng, the new capital of Yan, he saw the bonfires of the soldiers guarding the city wall in the distance.
There are many stars, the city is neat and tidy, and the city is neat and tidy. In the distance, the summer night grassland outside the city is peaceful, with the occasional chirping of cicadas and the barking of dogs, and all kinds of industries are harmonious. As far as the eye can see, there are roads, fields and ridges. It is already
It was midnight, and the whole city of Longcheng had fallen into silence. King Yan looked south for a long time, as if he was lost in thought.
The Yan Kingdom has gone through generations of forefathers who have worked hard to become stronger. Now, with the help of King Murong Hui of Yan, he has quelled civil strife, rewarded farmers and mulberry trees, and moved the new capital to the north. King Yan looks to the south, and it seems that the Juyong Pass of Yan and Zhao is close at hand. Yan
It seems that the national iron cavalry can knock down the pass and break the city, go south to destroy Shizhao, and take control of the Central Plains, Jicheng, Yecheng, the east and west capitals, and even Jiankang. How can the footsteps of the Yan Kingdom stop at this Dragon City?
King Yan leaned on the railing and sighed: "'If you are less than a hundred years old, you always worry about a thousand years old. The days are short and the nights are long, why not wander around with a candle.' If I have another twenty years, ten years is fine, Shi Zhao, no, just
Even the Jin Dynasty is not a problem. Now it seems that it can only be handed over to the descendants of the future generations. Fortunately, everything has lived up to my expectations." Suddenly a gust of wind blew, and King Yan coughed a few times.
"Old slave, congratulations to the king for having such a son. King Yan is very lucky, and our country, Yan, is very lucky." Uncle Ping quickly put the cloak on King Yan.
"As long as my king protects the dragon body, I still need to be in charge of everything in the Yan Kingdom."
"What Uncle Ping said is true when I think about it. It's time to order someone and call Ba'er back to the capital to talk about it."
"King Yan, there is another secret report. Ba'er led many people into the Tuhe River. Does it seem strange?" Ping Bo has served King Yan for many years.
For the sake of thinking, I reminded you.
"It stands to reason that it is not without fault. The government of Shizhao was not well maintained, and monster monks brought harm to the country. However, there are now more refugees than in the past. It seems that there is something wrong with not screening them all, and letting them all flow into the Tuhe River. However, our ancestors in the Yan Kingdom have The Lord has a broad mind and has conquered all over the world. He wants to prevent the world's talents from entering Yan, so there is no harm in doing so." King Yan also approved of Ba'er's move, but the whole country was in trouble and the soldiers on the border would support themselves, so it was okay to ask Yan. Wang Lue thought for a while and said: "What you said now is not inappropriate. It's just a matter of sending someone to ask, and give it a little beating, so as not to prevent someone from doing something on their own."
"Your Majesty, it is appropriate for one person to handle this matter."
King Yan was thoughtful: "You said it was Duan Xian."
"Exactly."
King Yan waved his hand and said: "Forget it, let him greet him on behalf of the orphan."
"Old slave, take your orders."
Not long after, the crown prince Murong Jun led the remaining generals Murong Jun and Mu Yugen in the capital, and went straight to Pingguo with the royal guards.
After entering Pingguo City, he said goodbye to the captain and Chengda, and went straight to Murong Ke's military tent.
When Murong Ke heard that the prince had come, he came out of the tent to greet him and gave Murong Jun the captain's seat. He saw Murong Jun sitting behind the shogunate commander's desk, and the others were standing to the left and right.
After everyone calmed down for a moment, Murong Jun said clearly: "I first joined the army and I don't know much about it. If there is anything I don't understand, I hope my brother will criticize me."
Murong Ke returned the salute by cupping his hands and said: "Your Majesty, you have already said it. Your Majesty, you are strategizing to win a victory thousands of miles away. Your Majesty only needs to sit upright in our tent and leave the rest to us. We will definitely be able to defeat you." Enemy captives."
With approval in his eyes, the Crown Prince asked Murong Ke humbly: "Brother Ke, now that I see Fuyu's sudden attack on troops, what should we do?"
"Your Majesty, all the officers and men," Murong Ke said as he looked around the military tent, "Fuyu lived in Lushan for his whole life, but was invaded by Baekje. The tribe declined and dispersed, and he moved westward to the Yan Kingdom, which is adjacent to our country of Yan."
Murong Jun asked in confusion: "We, the State of Yan, have been kind enough to take in the Fuyu tribe, so how can we fight against them now?"
"So the Chanyu has passed away, and the new Chanyu has been established by Wang Xuan. He was always friendly with Shi Zhao, and he was greedy and greedy, and he forgot his righteousness when he saw profit. That is why he caused today's disaster." At the end, Murong Ke thought for a moment and said, "But I I heard that the scout was rewarded, but he has no far-sighted strategy and no military training, just to use Shi Zhao's power to gain power."
"The small states of Yi and Di can only be intimidated, but not virtuous. Now that the power of Yan State is at its peak, I don't want to get entangled with these small states. I can just give them a little punishment. However, if they ask Zhao to be arrogant, if they don't attack them severely , I'm afraid that the foreign barbarians have the intention of underestimating me." Murong Jun stood up and said to the officers and soldiers, "All officers and soldiers obey the orders, Fuyu is a small country, and they don't know God's grace and invade our borders. Now our Yan army is under the command of Murong Ke. The order is my order, and anyone who disobeys it will be killed without mercy."
Murong Ke knelt down in fear and said: "My brother is scared. The prince has the important responsibility of supervising the country. I can just help him from the side."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Mu Yugen also stepped forward and said, "The king has appointed you as a special envoy with full power. Is it too much to give him military power suddenly?"
The prince pushed his hand towards Mu Yugen, signaling him to stop talking.
Turning around, he held Murong Ke's hand tightly and said: "My brother Ke's wisdom spreads far and wide to Liaodong, and I have heard about it in the capital. We, the people of the Yan Kingdom, work together as one, so there is no need to worry about being defeated by a powerful enemy." The prince looked at the people in the military tent and said , "Although I have not experienced military affairs, I still know the importance of the unification of military orders. I have made up my mind to conquer Fuyu now. I will listen to the orders of General Murong Ke who conquered the Liao Dynasty."
Everyone said: "The last general takes orders."
I saw the Liaodong garrison and the royal guards of Yandu under the central command of Murong Ke. They sent Murong's army to lead 17,000 cavalry as the vanguard. Under the cover of night, they marched at full speed and rushed forward. Mu Yugen and Murong Ke
He led 30,000 infantrymen to follow him, and his troops were extremely fast. Before the Fuyu army could wake up, they were attacked and dispersed by the Yan army, and fled in disarray.
The infantry then surrounded the Fuyu camp, and Wang Xuan was captured. He cursed and said: "The Yan State is cheating. You can't be considered a hero. Why don't you fight openly in the daytime and take advantage of the night to lose and be unconvinced?"
Hearing this, all the generals burst out laughing. Seeing that Mu Yugen was eager to achieve great results, he put his sword on his neck and said: "A small barbarian country has not learned about the military affairs, so it suddenly raises an army and brings humiliation to itself."
After that, he wanted to cut it off with his sword.
"Wait a minute." Murong Ke turned around and reported to the prince, "Although Fuyu Shanyu Wang Xuan is vulgar and unrestrained, I don't think he is a traitor. If he is transformed with benevolence and righteousness, he will definitely be a barrier for our Yan."
Mu Yugen was just trying to save trouble, so he cursed and said: "Your Majesty, I have killed a hundred of these barbarians."
"General Zhechong, I have said before that everyone will listen to Murong Ke's order in this battle. Now he will not kill Fuyu Shanyu Wang Xuan. Forget it, he will return to our Yan capital with the army. All the Fuyu tribes will move to our Yan territory and enrich our Yan country.
population."
"The prince has a far-sighted strategy, and I admire him greatly." Murong Ke led all the soldiers to express their gratitude to the prince.
Duan Xian missed him day and night since Murong Ba left, and he lost a lot of weight. Although he moved to the new capital of Longcheng, Mrs. Gongsun went to Longxiang Temple to pray for the country. However, the king of Yan did not depose him, and the two
His sons Murong Nong and Murong De are still young, and Duan Xian also has two daughters, Duan Yuan and Duan Ji. King Yan wants to treat them well, and now they live in the right side hall of the royal city.
"Miss Duan," Xiaojuan gently knocked on the door of Duan Xian's residence, "There is someone in Prince Yan's palace looking for you."
Gongsun Guifei's former maid, Xiaojuan, originally wanted to enter the Buddhist temple with Gongsun Guifei, but Gongsun Guifei insisted that she stay in the palace, which can be regarded as the last farewell between master and servant.
On this day, Pingbo Shanshan, an old internal official of the King of Yan, came over. He saluted Xiaojuan and said, "Where is Duan Xian?"
Xiaojuan was so startled that she couldn't help but drop the tray in her hand. She just murmured to herself: "Sincerity is the answer." She quickly called people to greet Uncle Ping and went to the tea room to wait.
After Pingbo explained his intention, Xiaojuan replied that he still needed to ask Duan Xian what he meant.
"What's going on?" Duan Xian asked.
"Ms. Duan, King Yan heard that Master Zhiba had made outstanding achievements in guarding Tuhe, and Shi Zhao was intimidated. I would like to express my greetings."
"Just wait a moment, I'll come quickly." There was a lot of noise and bustle in the room, and the sound of a box of eyebrow pencils falling. After all, it was a deer running around in random directions.
Duan Xian was seen hurriedly leaving his residence and heading straight to the teahouse.
In the tea room, Uncle Ping was already sitting in front of the case. Seeing that Duan was here first, he hurriedly stood up and saluted and said: "Old slave, I came here to convey the king's decree that Ru Te be my king's special envoy and go to Tuhe to greet you.
Mr. Murong Ba." Duan Xian heard this and bowed hurriedly in greeting.
"Miss Duan, wait a minute." Uncle Ping suddenly raised his voice and said, "I am passing on the King's oral instructions."
Duan was startled for a moment, then returned to his normal state and said, "I accept the order."
"I heard that you defeated the stubborn enemy at Tuhe and guarded the gate of Yan State. I am very relieved. However, the number of refugees in Zhao State has increased greatly, and those who enter the Yan territory all come from Tuhe. According to Gu's report, you
Without any screening, if there are treacherous people who commit crimes and violate laws, and who seek to disrupt our country of Yan and enter the country, what should you do? I am sending an envoy to ask you a question, and you must answer it well."
After speaking, Uncle Ping returned the courtesy and quickly helped Miss Duan up, "Have you ever understood your Majesty's intention?"
Duan Xian stood up and replied: "Thank you very much, Uncle Ping. No need to say more, I will explain myself." I saw that his eyes were indeed determined.
Ping Bo looked at Duan Xian for a long time and nodded slightly, calmly and magnanimously. Murong Ba Guo had not misjudged the person.
