Murong De sneered and said: "With his little strength, I don't care at all. It would be troublesome if the Beifu Army were stationed. But now that the Eastern Jin Dynasty is in civil strife, the Beifu Army has been transferred back to Jiangnan to quell the rebellion. Qi County has long been in a vacuum. As long as Pi Luhun's own troops are eliminated, the entire Qingzhou can be occupied!"
Murong Lan said sternly: "I don't doubt that I will be victorious in the military, but the land of Qilu is the hometown of Han people's etiquette. There are many great Confucian scholars, and Confucius is also from Lu. I must be courteous to the virtuous and corporal, and strictly observe military discipline. I must not let it go unchecked." Soldiers and plunderers, especially the Ding Ling people brought by Murong Lin this time, are robbers by nature, so they must be restrained. Once anyone violates the people, they must be severely punished with military discipline in order to win the hearts of Qilu!"
Murongde nodded: "I have remembered what my little sister said. With you by my side, everything will be easy!"
Murong Lan shook her head and took a deep breath: "It's time for me to go, little brother, take care!"
Murongde frowned: "Where are you going?"
Murong Lan went out without looking back: "Go back to my husband!"
Murongde asked in surprise: "What can he do for you now? What can he do for Dayan?"
Murong Lan's steps were fast, without stopping for even a step, and she soon disappeared outside the Governor's Mansion, and her voice came with the wind: "Brother, don't think too much, what I want to discuss with him is our daughter This matter! The love and hatred between my husband and me, the hatred between our country and our family, must be put to an end!"
Western Liaoning, Longcheng.
Compared with the big cities in the Central Plains, this is an extremely crude city. It is at the level of a small county town at best, or even worse. The city wall is only one foot high, and an agile sergeant can jump on it directly. There is not even a drop of water in the moat outside the city. Dozens of pointed wooden stakes are scattered here and there. Even if it is a fortification, if it is said that this is the capital of a big country, I am afraid not many people will believe it. .
But now Dragon City is the capital of the Houyan Empire. The palace in the city is like a Wubao in the Central Plains, with a radius of only two or three miles. There are not even many palaces in it, but more than ten large tents have been temporarily built, like a grassland. Like a felt bag, as the emperor's camp, the only low house that could still be seen slightly, resembling a county government office, now became the court hall of the Yan Empire. Murong Bao was sitting on a low hu bed, with two sides on both sides. The armrests are simply carved with two dragon heads, which serve as dragon chairs. As for the original big chair in Zhongshan City that was studded with pearls and emeralds, there is no need to think about it anymore.
But Murong Bao's hand was clenched into a fist on top of the dragon's head. He gritted his teeth and yelled at a bald boy with a big face standing in the hall: "Murong Yun, what did you do? Why?" His movements were so slow that even Governor Lu had no time to save him?"
This bald boy is a Goguryeo named Gao Yun. When the Yan Kingdom of Murong clan first emerged fifty years ago, it had a great war with Goguryeo, a powerful country that dominated the Korean Peninsula. The famous generals Murong Ke and Murong Chui teamed up to defeat Goguryeo. The capital of the country was in danger, and the queen mother of Goguryeo and more than 50,000 people were captured. They returned victorious and forced Goguryeo to surrender. The forces withdrew from Liaodong and huddled south of the Yalu River. Gao Yun's ancestors were one of the Goguryeo people who were taken captive. Fifty years later, they have been living together with the Xianbei people in Liaodong. They look the same, except for the unique big stick. There is really no essential difference between the cake-faced people and the Xianbei people or the Han people.
Gao Yun himself has been a martial arts expert since he was a child, and was selected as the cavalry guard of the capital of Longcheng. In a military competition, he was spotted by Murong Bao, who took him by his side and obeyed his orders. In the last battle of Baisi, Gao Yun relied on Gao Yun to fight to the death. The guards protected Murong Bao and escaped back in a bloody way. During the Murong Hui Rebellion, Gao Yun even personally led the suicide squad to attack through tunnels when the enemy attacked Longcheng, defeating Murong Hui's central army in one fell swoop and determined to put down the rebellion. The first achievement. Therefore, he was given the surname Murong by Murong Bao and adopted as his adopted son.
But at this moment, Murong Yun had a look of helplessness on his face. He looked at Murong Bao and said: "Father, it's not that the rescue was not timely. It's because the Wei army moved too fast. Lu Jishi and his son were in Bai Si last time. He lost almost all his subordinates in the battle, and Fan Yang couldn't stay any longer, so he fled to western Liaoning with his family. Although he killed the Liaoxi governor of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Wei army and Ba Suo's troops came in a surprise attack, and Lu Jieshi's victory was not enough. They were more prepared, and the city was destroyed overnight. All the tribes were massacred, and the father and son were taken to Pingcheng. The only question left was how to die. The son had no choice but to kill the Wei army and stay behind. The local garrison generals must have more or less avenged themselves for Governor Lu and his son."
Murong Bao gritted his teeth: "Don't you know what Governor Lu means to us? He is the last Han family in Hebei to clearly support our Dayan family. If we cannot protect him, then the entire Han people in Hebei will fall to the Wei army. To become the slaves of Tuoba Gui, without the support of the Han people, if we want to counterattack Hebei, that is just nonsense!"
Murong Yun smiled bitterly and said: "But this big Han family couldn't hold on for even a day. They broke into the city at night and became prisoners. How can they save their children? Na Heba is not an ordinary person. He once defeated Liyang and Huatai. Overcoming King Fan Yang's army, this thousand-mile attack was accomplished with one blow, which is definitely not an easy feat."
Murong Bao let out a long sigh: "That's it. The matter has come to an end. It's useless to talk more. You should step back and wait for the court meeting before dealing with the matter."
Murong Yun bowed and retired, Murong Bao looked around: "Everyone, my family and country are in misfortune, the bandits are fierce, and the late emperor's foundation has been almost destroyed. Fortunately, all the loyal and brave ministers have tried their best to allow me to settle down in this old capital. , now I heard that Tuoba Gui had no intention of staying long after he lived in Zhongshan. The grassland tribes wanted to return, and the Rouran tribe also rose in Mobei and began to rebel against Wei. Our situation is not as desperate as imagined. There is still great work to be done, I intend to send troops to Hebei to regain the lost territory, what do you think?"
Murong Nong's expression changed and he stood up: "Your Majesty, you must not do this. Now that our army has been defeated, people are in panic, especially because of Murong Hui's rebellion the day before yesterday. Most of the rebellious soldiers have not returned yet. , many counties in Liaodong have not yet sent envoys to congratulate His Majesty for returning to Longcheng. This shows that they are not that loyal. Therefore, the top priority should be to establish a firm foothold and take care of things. The land of Hebei has experienced After this war, it has been damaged. Even Tuoba Gui has temporarily given up and it is of no use. If your Majesty really wants to consider this position, he might as well issue an edict to let King Fan Yang lead his army to regain Hebei."
