Chapter 1323 Different situations

Yang Bao felt dangerous, and Murong was too anxious.

On the 21st, he came outside Anshi City.

"These Central Plains scholars came to join us when they were lost. The brothers were generous and sheltered them and entrusted them with important tasks. Unexpectedly, they would repay me in this way." Xiping Duke Murong Yun was a little angry and said without hesitation.

There were many Han scholars beside Murong, and their faces changed.

"Stop." Murong scolded.

Murong Yun knew that he had made up his words and stopped talking.

Murong knew that he should comfort him at this time, but he was not in the mood and just looked at the battlefield.

Anshi County is a good place.

The county is located outside the edge of Liaoze, with fertile soil. It was developed since the pre-Han period and later had some twists and turns. Since the Jin Dynasty, many people from Hebei have been resettled here, re-opened land, built embankments, and irrigation canals have been dug, and the farming has flourished.

In the past, Goguryeo repeatedly invaded Xuan, Liaodong and Anshi County, which was located in the rear, provided a large amount of millet, hay, and even service animals.

A huge responsibility was made to repel the enemy.

During his lifetime, my father asked my eldest brother and fourth brother to separate Xiangping and Pingguo, and Liaodong was no longer owned by the court.

If I hadn't made a quick decision and detained my elder brother, the war would have been even more anxious. Unfortunately, I was unable to detain my fourth brother.

It's too late to say anything now, and the envoy sent to persuade the surrender was shot to death by the guards on the top of the city. The remaining people took over the house and fled back with a pale face.

A chief was furious and walked forward with a horse whip in his hand, trying to beat these people, but was stopped by Murong.

He drove forward and looked at the city quietly. After a long time, he said, "Send someone to monitor it."

After saying that, he rode his horse and left.

Prime Minister Feng Yi followed him. Murong still used the title of Taihe of Jin as his reign. He was named Queen Yan and was established. The Prime Minister was Feng Yi. At the same time, there was a shogunate, and two teams were ranked side by side.

Murong looked back and took a look, stopped, and said, "What the Prime Minister wants to say, Gu is very clear, don't worry, Gu will not be careless, all the captives have been sent back to Jicheng."

"King, what I am talking about is not these things." Feng Yi said: "Now Ren Zong is defeated again and again, and fled in all directions. There are only a few lonely cities left. This battle cannot be defeated. What I am worried about is that the siege will not continue the army."

Murong was silent for a while and said, "Didn't you grab a lot of livestock?"

"If the king still wants to recruit Ren Ni's subordinates, he has to send the cattle and sheep back. You can't kill them all, right?" Feng Yi asked back.

Murong sighed and said, "What do you mean?"

"An City, Pingguo and Wencheng can't take any more than a month of besieging you. I thought it would be better to withdraw my troops. I took advantage of the fact that I have grabbed a lot of livestock and had not had a great deficit yet, and I will go to Jicheng." Feng Yi said, "I am willing to stay in Xiangping,

Recruit the rebellious subordinates."

In fact, the job of recruiting and retrieval is not that simple, because Murong had committed a killing and surrendering.

Maybe he was too angry, or maybe he was short of food and grass. In short, he had killed and surrendered. After the news spread, unless Murong Ren died, there was no way for everyone to surrender, otherwise who would dare to surrender? Besides, even if Murong Ren died, many people were afraid that they would not dare to surrender.

It would be better to run east to Goguryeo, or simply go south to Mashijin and defect to Liang people.

Among these people who dare not surrender, Murong's younger brothers may even be included.

But this cannot be said, and Feng Yi could only try his best to persuade the King of Yan not to surrender in a large amount of force, so as not to be out of control in the end.

Seeing Murong hesitating at this moment, Feng Yi said again: "King, I expect that in April, Goguryeo, who has been busy with spring, will definitely send troops to attack Xuan. Emperor Liang is aggressive and is coming to the country. The momentum is so great that it has never happened before. Will the people of Liucheng and Jicheng not be afraid? I ask the king to return to Jicheng and leave the matter of Liaodong to the general Zuo Keye."

"Goguryeo" Murong whispered and said softly.

To be honest, from the standpoint of the Xianbei people, I look down on those people at all.

The reason is that the Goguryeo army cannot fight in the field, so they can only rely on the mountains to defend themselves. If one day finds a flaw for him, they will definitely go to Namaru City.

However, these people have average fighting ability and are quite capable of stealing. They often invade Xuan like a whirlwind.

The two counties in Liaodong plundered the people and robbed cattle and sheep. It is not without reason that the Prime Minister said this. The Goguryeo people have been going to Xuan a lot in the past two years. Xi'anping County in Liaodong has also been plundered many times. If it were not for Lelang, the local area, the powerful men of the two counties would fight to the death.

It may have fallen.

Thinking of this, he felt quite bored. Why are there so many enemies?

Feng Yi quietly looked at the Lord's expression and knew it in his heart.

There are some things that he doesn’t say, but how he does it. If he is not afraid of the Liang people and ignores him, why do he still send envoys to the south? Isn’t it just that he can’t beat him?

But even if he is afraid, the King of Yan will definitely not be willing to surrender. From the time he sent troops to attack Murong Ren, he knew that this was his third attack on Liaodong.

"The Prime Minister should go back to Beijing with his orphans," he paused and said, "Let the prince come to Xiangping to take charge of military affairs."

Murong stayed in Liaodong for more than ten days, and it was not until the fifth day of April that Murong led more than 3,000 people to arrive before he set off and returned.

Waiting a little anxiously in the middle, because there are rumors in the west: the Wuhuan tribe who was grazing in the ancient city of Pinggang failed in the first battle and had the possibility of surrendering—

*******

In early April, Shao Xun had already left Leling and had arrived in Wudigou for many days.

News from all directions came one by one, and the one that interested him the most was undoubtedly the Wuhuan in Pinggang killed the Xianbei official Geng, supported the young lord Xiluo Teng, and sent envoys to contact the surrender.

Shao Xun asked someone for inquiries and learned that Luo Teng's father, Xiluo Hou, once commanded a Wuhuan family, became a vassal of the Yuwen family, and grazed near the ancient city of Pinggang. Later, he was defeated by Murong family and surrendered to him.

He rebelled a few years ago and sent troops to pacify the Murong family, and the Marquis of Siluo died.

This time, the King of Yan Yu advanced north and met in the road. Xiluo tribe lost hundreds of people, so he decided to surrender, kill the fake officials signed by the Xianbei at night, and recruited 4,000 people to surrender.

The war progressed faster than everyone thought.

Shao Xun read the letter and asked the female official to put it away. He had decided to go north to Zhangwu and supervise the battle nearby.

Before leaving, he wandered on the banks of Wudigou River for the last time.

Needless to say, this is not a good port. The reason is very simple. The upstream river water carries a lot of mud and sand, which can easily be silted over time and must be cleaned regularly.

But it also has an advantage that ordinary seaports do not have, that is, through a well-connected water system, commodities can be transported in and out at a relatively low cost. But the question arises again, who do you sell Hebei goods to?

Shao Xun visited here for a long time, but still had no clue.

If there was a big country with a population of millions in the Northeast at this time, just like the Goguryeo and Bohai Kingdoms in history, it might have allowed Liaohai commerce to develop, but now it does not.

There are only some administrative needs, but they would rather travel through Liaoze and take that bad road.

"Slow down, slower." A shout sounded across the river.

Shao Xun looked up and saw a large number of Ding Zhuang carrying supplies and equipment on the ship.

These were transported from Qinghe and Bohai counties through Qingshui, and then changed ships to Wudigou and prepared to ship to western Liaoning.

Many officials in the county secretly communicated with me, but there were no less than ten letters sent by Huangsha Prison, including civil and military officials.

Shao Xun hadn't originally planned to make them surrender now, and he wanted to wait, but Li Chong said that Murong was still attacking Liaodong.

Most of them wouldn't come to western Liaoning, and it would be meaningless to keep it. It would be better to surrender and then drive the soldiers of Youzhou Zahu from the east, walk along the coast, cross the swamp, and attack the Tuhe River, which is considered a side-level army.

Shao Xun thought for two days and finally agreed. He also felt that Murong was most likely not to dare to come to western Liaoning.

Among the shipped supplies, many of them were the two relatives of the Bohai Shi family and the Leling Shi family. Shao Xun thought of this and visited the beauty Shi who was following him and said, "Your Shi Cong has become Murong's servant."

Shi looked at Shao Xun with some grievance and said, "I have written a letter."

Shao Xun nodded slightly and said, "If he surrenders, he will not lose his high official position and his salary."

Shi Cong was one of the Shi clan members who escaped chaos and pacified the state in the late Jin Dynasty.

Murong was the King of Yan, just like Shao Xun set up a group of officials when he was the King of Liang. Shi Cong's official position was called "Chang Bo". This was a servant in the Zhou Dynasty. He was a close minister of the emperor and participated in decision-making. It was similar to the "Shizhong" of the two dynasties. Therefore, when the Liang Dynasty analyzed that the Murong family officials were mostly called Shizhong.

Shi Cong was originally a military position, and served as the commander of Tuhe and Liucheng, and was mainly responsible for dealing with conflicts of clans. He had many military achievements and good abilities. He was very capable of Murong, and Murong and his son rely heavily on him, so he could even be confidential.

To be serious, the regime of Murong Xianbei is more important than that of the Huns and Han dynasties. He has always regarded Sima Jin as the righteous man, and is still still.

And their friendly and reusable attitude towards the Han people is likely to become the key to their destruction.

Seeing that there was no one around, Shi whispered, "Your Majesty, I have made this contribution, please don't humiliate me in the future."

Shao Xun asked with a smile, "Are you willing to give up?"

Shi's face turned red and said, "It's okay in private, please."

Shao Xun was silent for a moment and said, "Okay."

Shi seemed a little disbelief and was stunned.

"I like your service very much, and now I feel sad when I feel reluctant to see you." Shao Xun gently stroked Shi's face and said, "But sometimes I can't control myself, so you should remind me more."

Shi nodded blankly.

She remembered the last two attempts to commit suicide.

The first time she collapsed that night, she really didn't want to live anymore.

The second time was two days apart, and that time was fake, because within two days, His Majesty had been coaxing Ge Wenbiao and didn't comfort her, so she half-true and half-fake. His Majesty scolded her first, and then finally was willing to comfort her.

Now he said he couldn't bear to let her go, it should be true.

Shi's heart was so happy that she took the initiative to say that Shi Cong was her relative and wrote a letter to persuade him to surrender. At that time, all the civil and military officials were speculating on Shi Cong's identity, and some even said that he was a Jie person.

Of course, it is not that no one speculated that Shi Cong was a native of the Central Plains, because he, Song Gai and Liu Mu, two gentry children, were both Shizhong. So he began to check the Shi family genealogy, but Bohai County did not find out that Leling City had been captured and all the literature had been destroyed long ago.

The elders of the Shi family were either dead or dead, and the genealogy was lost. Few people knew that Shi Cong was born in the Leling Shi family.

But she met Shi Cong when she was a girl, and she also had a letter when she was building the post. She didn't say it, who knows?

Shao Xun didn't know that Shi had already made up for a lot of thought in an instant. After he stood on the Wudigou dike, his mind was still on the future development.

I wonder if the sea animal skin is a big deal? Before the Little Ice Age reached its worst, sea animal leather was better in keeping warm than land animals, and it was lighter in weight, and it could prevent the coldness of coastal wetlands. It should be very popular, right?

Taking Liaodong as the distribution center, it transports seal skins, sea lion skins, sea otter skins, sea dog pills, walrus skins, beaver skins, etc.
