Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Vol 2 Chapter 871: Brother and sister 1

In the ninth year of Taiyuan (AD 385), in September, Yecheng and Yanjun Camp.

Among Murong Chui's handsome accounts, there are only two. Murong Cui, who is over fifty, has a red face and is full of spirits, while Murong Lan sitting opposite him is very worried and his eyebrows are tight.

Murong looked down at his little girl and smiled slightly: "Alan, you have worked hard for two years this time, and your task has been completed very well."

Murong Lan shook his head: "My task was not completed, neither the assassination of Fu Jian nor the recovery of the Yuxi. The most important thing was that Liu Yu was not drawn, and I asked the elder brother to punish him."

Murong waved his hand and said indifferently: "I didn't expect you to complete these tasks. Yuxi is a must-have for Liu Yuzhi. Now, he has no reason to betray Jin, because he hasn't reached the dead end yet, but you can rest assured. , I believe this is not far away. "

Murong Lan Muran shook his head: "No, the Jin army is already gathering, and Liu Yu has also gone back. With the help of the jade seal, the Xie family can mobilize manpower and material resources across the country, and we can't even win Yecheng now. In the past two years, the soldiers have been exhausted here, and now I have become a tired teacher. Brother, I may not want to listen to my words, but I still listen to my sister ’s persuasion, do n’t siege Yecheng, and retreat to Youzhou and Liaodong areas early to save strength , There is still a chance to kill back in the future. "

Murong raised his glass with a smile, and took a sip: "Sister, do you think that your elder brother's ability is reduced now, and even the small Pi Ye in the city can't deal with it?"

Muronglan's expression was calm: "I didn't think so. Qin Jun and Di people are fighting for survival. The fighting power that broke out in this state is terrible. After Zhai Bin's death, his sons and sisters Zhai Zhen and Zhai Liao, Escape from each other, gather the Dinglings and the scattered soldiers, and rampage and pillage in Hebei. Although your army has repeatedly defeated these thieves, they have always dispersed and reunited. In this way, we have been unable to concentrate on attacking Ye. The city ’s defense strategy is also good, and even the water attack is resolved. This is God ’s will, not Brother ’s fault. ”

Murong smiled and said: "I didn't think Alan was in Chang'an, but he knew everything about the situation here. How did your art of warfare progress so fast? Was Liu Yu teaching you?"

Murong Lan's pink face turned slightly red, and nodded: "His eyes and insights are different from a few years ago. Brother, you didn't look away. This person is indeed a dragon and phoenix among people, not just now. achievement."

Murong cried with a smile: "If it weren't for the dragon and the phoenix, how could our noble princess Lan agree with each other, life and death follow?"

Muronglan stomped: "Big brother, when is it, and still kidding girls. I and him, there is no possibility, this time it is clear when we separate, and bye bye, it is the enemy."

Murong Chui's eyes flashed coldly: "I know, so I haven't captured this Yecheng, just to let you be with him, a Yecheng in every district, I can take it at any time. But in order to conquer Liu Yu, it is worthwhile to get one or two later. "

Muronglan's complexion changed: "Brother, do you mean that it is intentional not to attack Yecheng?"

Murong nodded: "Yes, I can tell you this plan right after you come back this time. Do you think we are fighting for Hebei, who is the biggest enemy of Fuyan Dayan?"

Murong Lan said without hesitation: "Of course it is Qin Kingdom, Ye Pi of Yecheng."

Murong sniffed his nose dismissively: "Just him? I can kill him even if I fold a branch. If I want to take Yecheng, I can take it a year ago."

Murong Lan was surprised: "Who can it be? Zhai's Ding Ling?"

Murong shook his head: "Although these Dingling thieves are cunning and good at escaping, it is not difficult to deal with. If I take Yecheng and then lead the main force to encircle them, they cannot stand on their feet. , Although there is a certain chance, in general, it is still under my control. "

Murong Lan said thoughtfully: "That is Murong Chong in Guanzhong, Xi Yanjun? I think Murong Chong has no skill, but Murong Yong is a powerful character. If they compete with Big Brother for the orthodoxy of Big Yan, it may be a bit troublesome."

Murong smiled and said: "You are right and a half, if you don't take Yecheng, there is indeed the idea of ​​letting Xi Yanjun stay in Guanzhong, because if we win Yecheng in Guandong, Xiyan Jun will surely return home. When the monarch is undecided, if they come from the whole country, but hundreds of thousands of people, not only are enemies, but they are hand-to-hand, they will repeat the tragedy of the year. Therefore, if they do not take Yecheng, they will continue to fight Changan , A plan of mine. "

Muronglan said with a smile: "I understand, the eldest brother is most worried about, or the Northern Expeditionary Army of Jin."

Murong Chui took a deep breath, and his expression became serious: "Good girl, you finally guessed this time, yes, the other forces are nothing more than the problem of scabies, only the Jinfu's Beifu Army Is the real enemy. I used to think that the Xie family just wanted to protect the family. It ’s real to be back in Hebei. "

Muronglan's face changed: "Because of Liu Yu's persistence?"

Murong shook his head: "This is on the one hand ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ In the last battle of Beishui, the veterans of the Beifu Army all received a lot of benefits. The people who were oppressed by the villagers in the past became the people in the government, not only tax-free, but also manage people, and lived the life of a small landlord, so this time these veterans were eager to fight, even people from other places It is also highly motivated. "

Murong Lan nodded: "I believe that there are not many people like Liu Yu who are purely for the Northern Expedition, but there are not too many people who want to fight for the benefit. Who told them that they won the last time and have the sweetness, just Will continue. But, I am afraid that the family will not be happy. This time I heard that Jin Guoxin ’s reinstatement did not give the major families a share, but said that the tax exemption for three years, and then say, those families who give out food , I ’m afraid I ’ll feel fooled. "

Murong smiled and said: "This is the second point I want to say. Xie's family really wants to go northward, especially Xie An, because they are not living well now, they must build their merits through foreign wars to get through this. Hard days. "

Murong Lan's eyes widened: "Why would they not have a good life? Since the Battle of Feishui, their Beifu Army has made great achievements. After the war, they regained a large territory, not to mention that Liu Yu took back the Yuxi this time, and Make new contributions. "
