Chapter 31: Shen Guo's Defeat

"Yes, it is a surprise attack on the army of Shen Guo, otherwise with our current people, I am afraid it will be impossible to complete the task!" "If we want to be able to complete the task assigned by Your Majesty, we must take dangerous measures and surprise them, so that it is possible to achieve unexpected results.

"I completely agree with General Bai's opinion, the soldiers are dangerous, and if they are taken by surprise, we will come by surprise and kill them by surprise, maybe the current Shen State is still in the dark, and I don't know that we have joined forces with the Yan State to resist them together. Zhang Liao said with a smile.

"No, the news that Yan Guo borrowed troops from our country should be known by Shen Guo soon, but Shen Guo currently thinks that our country is unable to support Yan Guo, or we have no soldiers to send!"

"Then how do we surprise the attack, please General Bai set up the formation!"

"Generals, General Zhang and I each led a team of people, one team bypassed Jizhou City, climbed the mountain in front of Jizhou City, and the other team passed through Jibei City, and waited for half an hour at night, launched an attack together, mainly attacking their middle army and rear army camps, and passed through a pair of northern Hebei to split a small team of people to burn their grain and grass supplies, even if we failed to complete too many casualties for them this time, we would let them lose all their food supplies and be unable to organize a strong counterattack. ”

"This is very good, it not only gives the enemy a heavy blow, but also buys them a lot of time to retreat. In this way, I will take 50,000 people around Jizhou City to attack the enemy's Chinese camp, and General Bai will lead the rest of the people through Jibei City to burn their grain and grass!"

"Okay, that's it. Bai Qi also did not have the opportunity to compete with Zhang Liao for a frontal attack, because burning grain and grass to cut off the back road was more important than attacking frontally, if they could find the location of their grain and grass and burn their grain and grass, it would force the Shen army to rush over to save the grain and grass, which would leave enough time for the team attacking the Chinese army camp to retreat.

At nightfall, the two teams of men and horses traveled lightly and headed for their respective locations.

In the Yan Kingdom Palace, Murong Longcheng sat on the dragon chair and asked Murong Fu who was standing below, "Fu'er, did the Emperor of the Xin Han Kingdom really promise to send troops to help?"

"Father, it's true, the child set out from Zhongzhou in Xinhan with his father-in-law who passed the decree, and the emperor of Xinhan asked his retainers to return to China first and prepare sufficient grain and grass for the army. ”

"Father, I'm afraid that the second brother's words are not convincing?" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was standing in the first place, stood up and retorted.

"Oh, what do you mean by that?"

"Second brother, it's not that my brother doesn't believe you, as we all know, the Xin Han Kingdom has always had a shortage of soldiers and food, and how long has the emperor Liu Fei of the Xin Han Kingdom been on the throne, even if he has made great changes in the country since he ascended the throne, it does not mean that he has soldiers to lend us. ”

"Yes, Fu'er, what your eldest brother said makes sense, many years ago, when my father went to Xinhan, their total strength in the country was less than 200,000, and I am afraid that there are not many troops now, right?

"Father, although the sons don't know how many troops the Xin Han Kingdom has, Liu Fei, the emperor of the Xin Han Kingdom, has promised to support our country's 100,000 soldiers and horses, and he will come later. ”

"Hehe, second brother, you are really too young, you were deceived by that Xin Han child like this? 100,000 soldiers and horses, that is nearly half of the soldiers and horses of the Xin Han Kingdom, will he lend it to you? Even if he lends you 100,000 soldiers and horses, what is the effect? 100,000 horses, the other party has 300,000 people, is he the soldiers and horses of the Xin Han Kingdom to be stronger, can one pick three or one pick four?"

"This!" Murong Fu was also speechless by his eldest brother's question, yes, no matter how powerful the soldiers of Xin Han Guo are, it is impossible to do it in one pick three, I was only happy at the beginning, but what I didn't expect was that Shen Guo had 300,000 people waiting there, could it be that the sky was going to kill me? Not only did I catch the entire Yan Kingdom, but I also had to lose 100,000 horses and horses of Xin Han. I hope Emperor Xinhan doesn't blame him!

"Report, report, Jizhou City six hundred miles urgent, get out of the way, get out of the way, six hundred miles urgent!"

"Your Majesty, Jizhou City is six hundred miles away from the door in a hurry!" an old eunuch ran to Murong Longcheng's side and said to Murong Longcheng.

"Biography!"

"Yes!"

Six hundred miles in an expedited manner? Could it be that Jizhou City has also fallen, and it has only been a few days? Why has it fallen so quickly, and if it continues like this, it will not be long before the entire imperial city will fall. When the ministers heard the call for six hundred miles to hurry, they were all very nervous, and some were even thinking about how to transfer their family property, or surrender to Shen in exchange for survival value.

"Second brother, not only did your proposal fail to save the Yan Kingdom, but it made the land of the Yan Kingdom pass faster! ”

"Could it really be that Jizhou City has fallen? Liu Fei's men were just unbeaten, or was it said that Liu Fei didn't send troops to support Yan Guo at all, and everything was just an excuse for Liu Fei, or a lie?" Murong Fu pondered.

"Your Majesty, Jizhou City is six hundred miles away, and it is presented to Your Majesty!"

"Quick, bring it, bring it to me. ”

"Your Majesty, give!" The eunuch on the side quickly handed the expedited tang report in the soldier's hand to Murong Longcheng.

Murong Longcheng trembled and carefully opened the Tang Bao, and his eyes swept towards the Tang Bao with great fear, but he was uneasy in his heart, along with him the prince and Murong Fu standing below, the prince was afraid that Murong Fu really borrowed soldiers and horses, so the threat to him, the prince, would be even greater. Murong Fu was nervous that he was afraid of hearing bad news, afraid of hearing that Xin Han had not sent troops, that he had been tricked by Liu Fei, or that Liu Fei had sent troops, but Xin Han's soldiers and horses were all buried in Yan Kingdom, so he was a sinner in Yan Kingdom.

The crown prince, Murong Fu and all the courtiers all locked their eyes on Murong Longcheng on the dragon chair, and they all looked at what news he got there, only to see that Murong Longcheng's face changed from the initial impatience and restlessness to not being sad or happy, and gradually a faint smile was filled on his face, and finally he even laughed happily.

"Your Majesty, what did you say in the Tang Bao, how did you make Your Majesty so happy?" an elderly minister stood up and asked Murong Longcheng.

"Yes, father, what did the Tang newspaper say, even if the news is not good, don't be too excited, take care of the dragon's body!" the prince also stood up and said.

"Hahaha, good, good, good, this time Fu'er did a good job, and I was rewarded. This time, Murong Longcheng didn't answer any of them, but only praised Murong Fu a few words, and even said that he would reward him. This made His Royal Highness the Crown Prince feel a great crisis, and he immediately stood up and said to Murong Longcheng.

"Father, the second brother is still young, many things are not well thought out, I hope my father will not blame him, even if Jizhou City is lost, we will find other ways to slowly take it back, you must not be angry, you are the hope of Yan Kingdom, there is no room for loss!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can be said to be in tears, looking like I plead for the second prince.

"Haha, did I say that I want to blame Fu'er? I said that he did a good job, Fu'er, your decision is right, the 100,000 horses of the Xin Han Kingdom bypassed the city of Jizhou, burned the grain and grass of the Shen State's army, and killed the 150,000 troops of the Shen State, and now, the Shen Kingdom has all withdrawn from the territory of my Yan Kingdom, and the cities occupied by them before have also returned. Emperor Shen issued an edict to cede land and pay compensation to Yan State, and they begged for mercy from my Yan State! ”

"Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor. "When the ministers heard that the battle had been won, they were overjoyed, so that at last they did not have to move, and they could continue to make money. The ministers not only congratulated Murong Longcheng, but also congratulated Murong Fu, it seems that the future of Yan Kingdom is unknown, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is just rushing to power, and the second prince is a lord with both ability and political integrity, looking at the appearance of Emperor Murong Longcheng, I am afraid that Murong Fu will be renamed as the crown prince, in this way, Murong Fu is the future prince of Yan Kingdom, and it is definitely right to be friendly with him.

Everyone in the palace was overjoyed, only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had a gloomy face, he had been the prince for so many years, and this old immortal emperor didn't give himself a good face, didn't Murong Fu just move a few rescuers today, so he needed to praise him so vigorously? Where do you put me, the prince, like this.
