"Only I, Yanzhou, can keep you alive, and you have no choice!" Li Yue did not promise much.
Duan has always been capricious and has betrayed Murong. No one can tell where he will go in the future.
Li Yue's words were like a heavy hammer hitting Duan Yan's heart. After a moment, Duan Yan knelt down on one knee and said, "I am willing to do my best!"
Li Yue helped Duan Zhu up and comforted him for a while.
Every major force in the world has armies from other ethnic groups.
There were many Jin and Wuhuan people in the Yan army, and the Fu clan also had Qiang and Jin people. Even Ran Min had to use Basi general Wang Tai.
When the Han Dynasty attacked the Huns from the north, there were Huns in the army.
The situation in the north is like this. The Chinese population has dropped sharply. It is impossible for Li Yue to use people from other ethnic groups. As Chang Wei said, it is good to use them as the vanguard to consume the enemy troops and reduce the casualties of the Black Cloud Army.
Of course, this is a temporary measure at the moment, and various systems will follow in the future to gradually transform them.
After pacifying, immediately select soldiers.
Those who have no family members are not wanted, those who cannot speak Chinese are not wanted, and those who have a correct name are not wanted. After a selection, five thousand people were obtained.
As usual, all officers were personally appointed by Li Yue, but all officers above the camp commander level were veterans selected from the personal barracks.
Li Yue divided it into two groups, with Duan Zhu and Fan Lu each leading one.
There was no time for them to train, so they walked directly east to Qinghe.
Li Yue led 20,000 Heiyun troops behind him, leaving Weishan to guard Fangtou. At the same time, he ordered the Southern troops in Yanzhou and Qingzhou to strengthen defense.
The house leaked and it rained continuously all night. Just as we marched to Liyang, important news came from the north and south at the same time.
Murong and Jiangdong seemed to have made an agreement, one to conquer the south and the other to the north.
Murong Ke personally led an army of 100,000, known as 200,000, and marched south from Zhongshan.
Yin Hao's army came out of Shouchun, and his 70,000-strong army advanced by land and water, up the Ying River...
Li Yue suddenly felt like he was in a mess.
Chang Wei cupped his hands and said: "Murong Ke went south for Xiangye, and Yin Hao went north for Xu Luo. The governor can cut through the mess quickly and eliminate Shi Kun and Yao Yizhong in one fell swoop, otherwise there will be endless troubles!"
Li Yue nodded. Murong Ke and Yin Hao have nothing to do with him for the time being, but once they capture Xu, Luo, Xiang, and Ye, no need to ask, the next goal will definitely be to join forces with Yao Yizhong and Shi Kun to attack Yanzhou.
Nowadays, among all the major forces in the world, Zhang Ping of Bingzhou surrendered to the Murong clan and Fu clan at the same time, and Zhang Yu of Yuzhou returned to Jiangdong, so he followed Ran Wei. Politically, he was actually in a state of isolation.
If they don't hit themselves, who will they hit?
Li Yue ignored the previous discord and friction and wrote a letter to advise Ran Min not to act on his own initiative. Murong Ke's coming here was not a trivial matter. He should temporarily avoid his attack and stick to Ye City. Fangtou and Li Yang would also be able to deal with it.
As long as the battle starts in Yecheng and Ran Min goes out to fight it without any lack of foresight, he will have no problem protecting himself.
Yecheng and Xiangguo are all fortified cities, so there is no reason to use such a huge advantage.
The memo was handed over, but nothing came of it, and there was no reply.
"The survival of Wei depends on this battle. Does the governor have any plans?" Chang Wei said meaningfully.
"Sir, are you saying that Ran Wei will die in this battle?" Li Yue remembered that Ran Min was defeated by Murong Ke in history.
"Murong Ke has been recuperating for a long time, how can he give the Lord of Wei a chance to breathe? The defeat of Xiang State means that the situation is over. The governor can save Yecheng for a while, but not for the whole life." Chang Wei's voice became vicissitudes of life.
Indeed, Yanzhou's family background is not rich to begin with, and he has his own way to go.
And Ran Min is on the verge of collapse at any time.
Li Yue looked at the vast sky in the north. Although the sky was clear, he felt like the waves of the times were coming one after another. A great era had quietly arrived. He used to hide behind Ran Min and help him cross the river, but now Ran Min I was almost washed away by the river.
"Let's see how Lord Wei responds to this battle. Send an order to send another 100,000 shi of grain to Yecheng."
If Ran Min were to defend Yecheng, it would not be a big problem. With these grains and the livestock sent last time, it would not be a big problem to spend half a year.
But if Ran Min directly sends troops to fight Murong Ke, then Li Yue will have no choice.
It's going to rain, my mother is going to get married, and even nine cows can't pull her back.
Life or death depends on Ran Min's own fate.
But Li Yue has no time to care about him now.
Zhang Shengye came to report: Yao Yizhong announced his surrender to Jiangdong. He was worshiped as envoy Chijie, chariot and cavalry general, governor of Liuyi, great chanyu, governor of Jianghuai military affairs, and Kaifu Yitong. He was granted the title of Duke of Gaoling County! Yao Xiang was Chijie, General of Pingbei, Commander-in-Chief of all military affairs in Bingzhou, Governor of Bingzhou, and Duke of Pingxiang County.
Jiangdong's grant of such a generous seal to Yao Yizhong and his son was obviously planned in advance.
The situation is very clear. Yao Yizhong and Shi Kun's attack on Qingzhou is only the first step. After Yin Hao takes Xu Luo, he will definitely attack Yanzhou with Yao Yizhong!
A greater crisis is yet to come. After Murong Ke defeats Ran Min, he will also go south to attack Yanzhou.
In other words, if Yao Yizhong and Shi Kun cannot be killed quickly, Yanzhou will be in danger.
"The key to Yin Hao's northward journey is Zhang Yu. My subordinates will hurry south and lobby Zhang Yu!" Chang Wei said, twisting his beard.
If it were before, Li Yue would have agreed, but this battle is unusual. Too many forces are involved, and he needs someone to make suggestions.
"Sir, if you go, there will be no military personnel around you, and if Zhang Yu surrenders, it will be useless, sir. If you don't surrender, someone will be sent to contact us!"
Zhang Yu is not a good person without fighting or acquaintance. With Li Yue's understanding of him, he will definitely not fall down like this.
It also depends on how much leverage Jiangdong gives him.
In essence, it is an exchange of interests.
"What the governor said is true." Chang Wei smiled while twirling his beard.
Taiwu Hall in Yecheng.
Everyone was also trying to persuade Shi Min.
General Dong Run cupped his hands and said: "Xianbei can't take advantage of his victorious energy. Please avoid him to let his energy flow, and then join forces to attack him. You can do it quickly."
Ran Min lost 100,000 of his elite troops to Xiang State, and had to recruit Guangzong's begging army again.
Therefore, both Dong Run and Zhang Wen were promoted step by step.
"Murong Ke is famous all over the world. He is invincible in all attacks and battles. His soldiers have rested for many days. Now he is going south to attack me. He is not comparable to Liu Xian and Shi Kun!"
It would have been better if Liu Qun didn't say this, but once he said it, it aroused Ran Min's desire to win.
He has been unwilling to accept the defeat of Xiangguo and has always wanted to take revenge and wash away his shame.
"When I become an army, I will conquer Youzhou and kill Murong Jun. Now if I meet Murong Ke and avoid him, how can the world look at me?" Ran Min has been attacking since he led the army, and he has never stopped attacking. When passing the defense.
Wang Jian, who was standing aside, cast his penetrating eyes on Liu Qun and coughed twice, "Your Majesty is invincible in the world, but Yecheng is short of food. What will be done?"
A penny stumps a heroic man.
Without food and grass, it would be difficult for Ran Min to send troops.
"I will lead more than 10,000 elites, carrying ten days' worth of food, touring the two counties of Changshan and Zhongshan, looking for an opportunity to fight Murong Ke decisively!" The previous battles gave Ran Min a taste of the sweetness. As long as he dared to fight and charge, the opponent would be able to defeat him. The army was defeated.
Therefore, he became more and more confident in his own power.
The Murong family was huddled in Jicheng, and Ran Min had no choice. But if they came out in full force, in Ran Min's view, this was an opportunity.
As long as Murong Ke is defeated on the battlefield, all problems will be solved.
Ran Min's heart burst into flames.
