Liaodong Chapter 4
After the establishment of the Pingliao Metropolitan Governor's Mansion in Lilinkou, this place naturally became the military center of the Liang in the Liaobian, and the military forces distributed in the Liaobian naturally gathered here.
Hurun went north, and directly brought 3,000 troops. Before that, Xu Mao's son Xu Lang led thousands of people into this place as an advance force, and later added some of them one after another, but even so, before that, the number of troops directly invested by Wang Shi in Liaobian was only more than 3,000 people.
After the defeat of the kingdom of Qian, tens of thousands of people also settled in the western Liaoning region. In addition, some caravans organized by some Zhongzhou merchants spontaneously escorted the people, and if necessary, the Pingliao Metropolitan Governor's Office also had the power to directly requisition. In the end, the number of combatants under the direct command of the newly established Pingliao Metropolitan Governor's Office reached more than 20,000.
From this point of view, the strength of Daliang in Liaobian can be said to be extremely impressive. However, from a practical point of view, these forces need to maintain the defense of the areas under their current control, and they are also limited by the difficulties in expanding the border and logistical supply at the present time, so they cannot give full play to their combat effectiveness.
For example, some large-scale offensive and defensive equipment, as well as the most important war horses, are still extremely scarce in Liaobian at present.
Therefore, the current Pingliao Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is not suitable for directly launching a large-scale war. Hurun did not dare to squander the blood and courage of the soldiers of the Wang Division because of his own desire for merit, and fought with those Donghu murderers in a flesh-and-blood fight under the condition of insufficient use.
Taking a step back, once the war officially begins, even if the Wang Division wins one after another, every soldier who consumes a soldier's life on the Liaobian battlefield still needs to be replenished from within the country, while the Donghu tribes can be replenished on the spot. The problem of efficiency is also a very serious military dilemma.
What's more, although Wang Shi has 20,000 soldiers, the powerful people in the Donghu tribe are also not weak. Among them, the most important thing is the Murong Ministry, and Murong Hao's son Murong Zun alone has tens of thousands of people at the moment.
At present, Murong Zun controls the vast majority of Changli County east of Liaoshui, and he has not completely given up on the western Liaoxi region where he originally sent troops to attack internally. It is precisely because of this that the army of the king division in western Liaoning still cannot continue to march eastward without scruples and join forces with the Lilinkou army.
As for how many people Murong Jun occupies in the Great Thorn City, the stronghold of the Murong Ministry, there is no specific situation to know at the moment. However, in addition to confronting Murong Zun, Murong Jun and others who were in turmoil in the east could still form a certain degree of suppression, which shows that Murong Jun's current strength should not be underestimated.
In addition, in the eighth year of the Qitai Liaoxi riot, Murong Hao sent troops to attack the Xianbei Yuwen Department that was attached to the Xian State and occupied Liaoxi at that time. After the war, most of the former Yuwen Ministry's troops were also annexed by Murong Ministry, Duan Ministry, and other forces.
But soon after, the Northern Expedition of the Great Liang Dynasty led to the regeneration of China, and the Murong Ministry itself fell into civil strife due to Murong Jun's self-reliance on his father's self-reliance, and he no longer had the energy to calmly digest the remnants of the Yuwen Ministry.
Because a large number of people from the Yuwen Ministry fled to the north, and the Daiguo, who coveted China but never went south, did not miss this opportunity, and even sent people from the headquarters to support Yuwen Luming, the son of the turtle, the former leader of the Yuwen Ministry, and re-led the hometown of the Yuwen Ministry, gradually forming a scale. Today's Yuwen Ministry has also become a vassal force installed by Daiguo in Liaobian.
At present, the Daliang Imperial Court has not yet had a specific plan to focus on developing Liaobian, so for a long time, the forces of these royal divisions controlled by Hurun are mainly based on deterrence, and they are mainly based on razing.
Of course, the creation of the new dynasty of the Great Liang, sitting on the victory of China, and the power of the Qiang State, although the Donghu tribes are still not lacking in strength, but no one dares to directly challenge the authority of the Great Liang.
Under such circumstances, Hurun, as the supreme military governor of the Liaobian region of Daliang, is also a big challenge.
Hurun has not been in the town for a long time, and after initially grasping the situation in Liaobian, a series of actions were launched in this winter. He mainly commanded the royal division, and also commanded the Duan Department and other Hu Yi subordinates, with Lilinkou as the center and in the name of announcing the order of the king of Daliang to crusade against the ministers, in the long cold winter of the Liaobian, defeated and conquered dozens of tribes large and small in the Liaoshui Valley.
Although winter is not suitable for the use of troops, these small tribes of Donghu themselves have no fixed place to live and no fixed area of influence, and they can only hide them in their nests when the heavy snow closes the mountains.
At other times, it would have been a waste of time to track their movements, and the soldiers had been gathered for a long time, and the cost of the soldiers was very staggering, and even if they were to destroy and annex these small tribes, it would often be more than worth the loss.
This is also an important objective condition for these small tribes of Donghu to exist in Liaobian, and the reason why Hurun chose to launch at this moment is also to follow Jin Xuangong's advice. In Kim Xuangong's Pingliao Policy, this is discussed in detail.
Hurun's wave of Liwei, the effect is still very significant, first of all, to ensure the regional security around Lilinkou, those small tribes in the East Hu are like fleas, disturbing people to the extreme, even if it will not pose a direct threat to the safety of Lilinkou, but its haunt will still bring great intrusion to the reclamation matters.
The second is that the Pingliao Metropolitan Governor's Mansion has swiped a wave of presence in Liaobian, especially Hurun, the Pingliao Governor. Originally, his arrival, except for the princes and ministers of Liaobian and Hu who was attached to the Great Liang, had not spread much in the outside world.
But after this cold winter's purging and suppression, almost everyone in Liaobian who is well-informed knows Hurun's murderous name. This also made more Liaobian people realize that the newly rising Liang China is not only a character like Liu Qun who is good at being gentle and restrained, but also an arrogant and murderous iron-blooded warrior like Hurun!
Hurun's image of an ordinary person, coupled with the style of treating human life as a mustard and dying tribe at every turn, soon gave him a great reputation in Liaobian, and these Donghu tribes in Liaobian called Blind Hu with contempt but more fear.
The one-eyed blind beard eats flesh and bones, so that some Donghu tribes are far away hundreds of miles when they hear its name, and they dare not fight.
In fact, for Hurun and Liu Qun's completely different styles of acting, the most deeply touched and unacceptable are those Donghu servants who are already dependent on the Liang. In the past, they responded to Liu Qun's call and could discuss anything, and there was a lot of room for maneuver.
However, when these tribes were brought under the jurisdiction of the Pingliao Metropolitan Governorate, the relaxed atmosphere of the past was gone. The Hurun army is extremely strict, especially for them, who are righteous and obedient, and there is almost zero tolerance. Once the conscription order is issued, those who dare not conquer a tribe will either be postponed or the troops sent will not meet the requirements of the conscription order, and the punishment will not be spared!
These Hu Yi servants are often idle and used to it, and rarely have the concept of military orders like mountains. Therefore, at the very beginning, often after the Hurun conscription order was issued, the troops were not directly dispatched, and the Hu troops who resisted the conscription order or were discounted in the implementation were cleaned up first, and then the troops were sent to recruit the real target.
is so arrogant and vicious, the Hu Yi followers are miserable, because of Hurun's fierce name, the vast majority of them are still propagated by these Hu Yi followers.
But even if Hurun has a lot of arrogance, there is one thing that is very good, that is, the reward for war merits is really rich and abnormal, which also makes these Hu Yi followers love and hate it, and it is difficult to leave.
Although Hurun was very strict in driving these Hu tribes, he was never stingy in sharing the war gains, and he did not levy any gains captured by the people who participated in the war.
However, Liaobian is barren, and it can be said that it is a nest of wolves and poor ghosts, and even if they succeed in attacking, the harvest is really limited, and it is nothing more than some people, livestock, and groceries of little value. According to the earlier environment of Liaobian, these harvests are really not worth the hard trek and danger of hunting in the cold winter of their tribesmen Ding Li.
However, now that they are conducting military operations under the auspices of the Pingliao Metropolitan Governor's Office, there is really no problem of difficulty in realizing them. The captured manpower could be sold directly to the maritime merchants through the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and the men could be rented to the Pingzhou Assassin's Mansion to undertake forced labor, which could be harvested for a long time.
In terms of livestock, they can either keep the headquarters for food consumption, or sell them to the Thorn Mansion at a high price for reclamation of animal power. As for the confiscated furs, herbs, pearls and jade, etc., they are not at all marketable.
The battle capture doesn't stop there, when they conquer a certain place, the Assassin's Mansion will immediately follow up, and if they find any resources in the realm that can be exploited, they will also give them a part of the reward.
The realization of so many ways also made these poor Hu Yi followers fight one by one, closely unite under the command of Hu Dadu, point where to fight, and even take the initiative to provide those Hu targets who have not returned to righteousness.
With such a lucrative return, the strictness of military orders is not a problem at all. Anyway, it was the tribesmen who really went into battle to kill the enemy, and those Hu chieftains could sit back and enjoy their success.
After a large number of goods are introduced, they are naturally rich in food and clothing, and their shame becomes stronger.
In previous years, Liaobian, even if there was a huge hoarding of goods, to be honest, the enjoyment that could be had was really limited, eating a few more bites of meat, wearing a few more layers of fur, it was already a great luxury enjoyment.
But now, if you have money, you really don't have to worry about spending, gorgeous ayaluo, sweet cheese, refined utensils, as long as you have money, there will be a steady stream of people to transport them to Liaobian, only the extravagance they can't imagine, and there is no enjoyment that China can't provide.
A large number of Chinese utensils and lifestyles were introduced to Liaobian, which not only opened the eyes of these Liaobian Hu chiefs, but also made them feel that their lives in previous years were really wasted.
People's yearning for a better life is also an innate instinct, and there are very few people who can be willing to live poorly, especially if they have the ability to live a better life.
In previous years, the Murong Department dominated Liaodong, in addition to the strong strength to deter these Hu tribes, in fact, there was no shortage of wishes for them, saying that the current chaos in China is the opportunity for the rise of Bian Hu, as long as it invades China, the paradise of Shenzhou can be carved up and enjoyed.
But now, China has decided, the Great Liang Imperial Court has even killed such a ferocious opponent as the Qiang Kingdom, and how many people will take their bold words and wishes seriously?
But they don't have to despair, it seems impossible to break into China, but they can still rely on the Pingliao Governor's Mansion to make achievements. Although Blind Hu was fierce, he also proved to them through practical actions that the Great Liang Imperial Court was not stingy with rewarding meritorious soldiers, and the real entry of wealth and goods was far more real than the strong intimidation and false promises of the Murong Department in previous years!
People's hearts are contradictory, and it is in this kind of imperceptible progress. Even in the period of Murong Diao and Murong Hao, who were the most powerful in the Murong Department, their control over the hearts of the people of the Liaobian Zhuhu could not be called absolute control, not to mention that now they are still in the midst of division and internal strife, and the private affairs of the family are still unclear, so what energy and majesty do they have to win the hearts of the people?
Especially after Murong of the Murong Department was awarded the title of Governor of the Army, and became the general of the unified army under the command of the Pingliao Metropolitan Governor's Office, which made the mentality of the Zhuhu tribes originally controlled by the Murong Department even more broken.
Speaking from the heart, Murong Ping's ascension is really based on his own efforts. He himself is the youngest son of Murong Diao, who lives here all the year round, and knows far more about the distribution of the forces of the Donghu tribes than Jin Xuangong, who has been away from Liaobian for many years, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is like looking at the palm prints.
The military merits of the Pingliao Governor's Mansion are so richly rewarded, how can Murong Ping, who is already greedy and contemptible, be willing to be left behind. After several outstanding military operations, he won the appreciation of Hu Dadudu, and even led his troops directly into the vicinity of Da Thorn City to attack those tribal forces that were attached to Murong Jun, and repeatedly won a lot of money.
For Murong Ping, as Murong Dian's youngest son, he saw his brothers fighting for property in a lively manner, but he was limited to his age, and the ancestral property he could obtain was really limited.
It doesn't matter, you don't give it to me, I'll take it myself, there's really nothing wrong with that. Under the knees of the tiger father, how can there be a sick child! In previous years, Murong Hao and Murong Ren just took advantage of their old age to steal their ancestral property. Now the juniors are also lively and infighting, if I don't grab bravely, I will be misunderstood as cowardly and bullied!
Of course, in the same narrow territory of Liaobian, it is naturally impossible for the Pingliao Metropolitan Governor's Mansion to expand and grow in such a big move, and it is naturally impossible to hide it from the Murong Jun brothers. It should be said that in recent times, the Murong Department has been quite favored, and those direct clansmen are either ruthless or cunning, but they are rarely talented.
It is precisely because of the talent that has come out in large numbers, coupled with the fact that Lund does not cultivate, that there are frequent infighting, and everyone is unwilling to be left behind because of their talents. Whether it is Murong Hao, Murong Han and other brothers in the early years, or Murong Jun and Murong Zun who are still fighting now, or even Murong Ping, who is busy digging into the corners of his own house, can be called first-class talents in the Donghu group.
In fact, as early as the beginning of Hurun's entry, the brothers Murong Jun and Murong Zun were already vigilant, and they sent envoys to visit Linkou, and while peeping, there was no lack of threats, and they did not want Daliang to interfere too much in the affairs of Liaobian, hoping to maintain Liu Qun's old state at this time.
Hurun came on the king's orders, and he was cunning and fierce in his own right, so how could he be intimidated. However, he didn't want to completely fight with the Murong Jun brothers at this moment, so he simply avoided it, and then led his troops to clean up the small tribes of Donghu in the Liaoshui Valley.
In this process, the Murong Jun brothers also had a tacit understanding to stop fighting each other, especially Murong Zun, who was relatively the most powerful at the moment, led the troops back to Zimengchuan, and faintly made a gesture of attacking the Hurun Department with Murong Jun.
changed a general with a weak personality, and in the face of such coercion, he more or less needed to throw a rat trap and lead the crowd back. But if Hu Run really did this at that time, it would inevitably expose the fact that some of Wang Shi's subordinates were still weak, and it would be difficult to encourage those Hu Buyi to attack and do things like a finger.
Hurun's response was very simple, he just met with Murong Jun and Murong Zun's envoys separately.
When receiving Murong Jun's envoy, his statement was that Murong Zun and his people briefly proclaimed themselves King Yan after Murong Haoheng's death, which was an unforgivable act of trespass for the Liang court, so it was impossible for the imperial court to agree to Murong Zun's request to be the assassin of Pingzhou and the captain of Dongyi.
And when he met with Murong Zun's envoy, Hu Run said again, Murong Jun and his people killed their fathers and stood on their own, which is a heinous crime that breaks through the limits of human ethics and is unforgivable.
So, after a month of truce between them, Murong Zun and Murong Jun attacked each other again, and they no longer had time to pay attention to Hurun's suppression of those small tribes in Donghu. After all, only by killing the other party can he become the undoubted leader of the Murong Clan, and as for the survival of those small tribes, it is not a pain for them.
Hurun's provocative tactics are actually not clever. It's no secret that Da Liang's attitude towards the Hu clan is, even Shi Hu, the former Hebei Supreme, has been cut alive, even if Hu Run patted his chest and promised to support one of them, most of them would not believe it.
Murong Jun and Murong Zun are not mediocre people, and it is precisely because they are smart that they think more. Previously, Hurun avoided their envoys, and they really couldn't figure out the reality of the Pingliao Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.
But now Hurun is willing to receive their envoys, and make false accusations and sow discord, which shows that Hurun is still a rat trap after all, and the king of Liang is not sure to solve them in the short term.
Knowing this, what do they do? Is it to give up old grievances with each other, shake hands and make peace, cooperate sincerely, and drive the forces of the Great Liang Wangshi out of Liaobian first?
It's a joke! As Hurun said, Murong Jun is a criminal who kills his father, and it is difficult to deal with it, and Murong Zun is arrogant and king, and he is not tolerated by the Great Liang, and both of them are guilty and unforgivable. The only way to unite the tribal forces is to destroy the other side.
As long as they can make a quick decision, solve the other party first, and then integrate the tribal forces, and have enough strength, they are qualified to sit down and negotiate with the Great Liang court. Otherwise, even if they are temporarily reconciled, not to mention who is the main and who is the secondary, if the Liang proposes that they need to eliminate each other in order to be officially recognized, will they do it or not?
In short, for the next two years, the Murong Jun brothers fought endlessly, while Hurun was busy leading his Zhuhu Yi from the miscellaneous army to wipe out the rest of the Donghu tribes in Liaobian, and they were at peace with each other.
And the reason why their strength can be roughly balanced, and no one has eliminated each other, needs to test Hurun's micro-manipulation ability.
In this process, once Murong Zun almost fell, the reason was that his general Mu Yugen was persuaded by Murong Jun to surrender, in the process of fighting between the two sides, Mu Yugen suddenly led the crowd out of the battle formation and retreated to the direction of Zimengchuan, making Murong Zun fall into a lonely battle, and the Chinese army even narrowly broke through.
However, when Murong Jun was overjoyed and ready to continue the pursuit to expand the results of the battle, there was a chaos in the Great Thorn City where thousands of Han people fled en masse, and Murong Jun was busy returning to the city to settle the chaos, and did not dare to go out lightly, so that Murong Zun could calmly withdraw, behead the rebel general Mu Yugen, and stabilize the front again.
Although Murong Zun was in danger this time, Mu Yugen's betrayal still hurt his vitality. It must be known that Mu Yu is fundamentally a general in the country, and he established great military exploits as early as the period when the lord Shihu attacked Liaodong, and the reason why Murong Zun was able to command the troops for several years and fought endlessly with Murong Jun was because of Mu Yugen's support for him.
But even a humeral help like Mu Yugen chose to betray Murong Zun, which suddenly filled him with a sense of crisis. For a long time after that, Murong Zun didn't dare to continue to attack the Great Thorn City, and this time the crisis was able to survive safely, which also made him realize that he could rely on this to ask for more help from the Pingliao Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, because the current Great Liang still needed their brother's wall to continue to maintain the situation in Liaobian.
And at this time, the disputes in the Liaobian are no longer a secret in the north, the northern royal division continued to fight against the remnants of the Qianhu, and with the unremitting efforts of Xie Ai, the governor of Heshuo, the begging army Li Nong officially changed his banner and returned to righteousness, so that the soldiers of the Liang Wang Division could be pointed directly at the plug!
In order to resolve the threat of the Great Liang Wangshi on the southern front, the acting lord Shi Yiqian also focused more on the Liaodong side, and after supporting the Yuwen Ministry, he sent an envoy to contact Murong Zun. There is still a relationship between them, Shi Yiqian is Murong Diao's son-in-law, and now Shi Yiqian plans to kiss and marry, and he wants to match his daughter to Murong Zun.
Of course, Murong Zun and Shi Yiqian's secret songs were all carried out in secret, and Hurun had no way of knowing.
After nearly two years of development, the strength of the Pingliao Metropolitan Governor's Mansion at this time has been quite strong, with nearly 30,000 people in the headquarters of the Wang Division, and the number of Hu Yicong under his command has also reached 30,000. But those Hu Buyi are okay to rob the house, and the reuse of the battle array is still not reassuring, as for the people in the Wang Division's headquarters, there are still a considerable number of people who are confined to Liaoxi and dare not move lightly.
In order to maintain Murong Zun's power, Hurun asked Wen Fangzhi to cooperate. Wen Fangzhi, as the assassin of Pingzhou, although he is not involved in military affairs, in recent years, under the background of the increasingly powerful force of the Metropolitan Governor's Office, many civil affairs have also been steadily built.
Among them, there is the secret contact of the Beipingyang clan, and with Wen Fangzhi, the Han people controlled by Murong Jun are continuously transported outward. The reason why the Yang family was willing to do this was naturally forced by the situation, and they had to recognize the reality, and they didn't dare to rely on Murong Jun for all the vitality of the family, and befriending Daliang could be regarded as a way out.
After receiving Hurun's request, Wen Fangzhi urgently contacted Yang Hu, hoping that Yang Hu would find a way to contain Murong Jun's military action, and it could be regarded as a practical guarantee that as long as Yang Hu could complete this task, after Liaobian was determined in the future, this skill would be named and played, enough for the descendants of the Yang family to survive in the country and then continue the heir.
In fact, Murong Jun is not ignorant of what the Yang family has done, and Murong Jun also deeply hates the Yang family's vest and deviating from morality.
But the reason why it can still be tolerated is that the scale of the Yang family's private transportation is still controllable, and the loss of these Han people can also weaken the consumption pressure of the Great Thorn City to a certain extent, and the second is that he also hopes that after the elimination of Murong Zun, he also needs people like the Yang family to run for him and strive to negotiate with the Liang court.
However, although Murong Jun did not kill the Yang family, he gradually emptied his family's military power, and only kept it in captivity for later use.
So when Yang Hu received Wen Fangzhi's order, he was also at a loss, because he no longer had any power in his hands, but Wen Fangzhi's promise still made him excited, knowing that once such an opportunity was missed, it would never be again.
Because it was Yang Hu who planned this Han escape, although it disrupted Murong Jun's military plan, he actually put himself to death. Such a hastily organized mass exodus, without even thinking about it, has no possibility of success at all!
Sure enough, knowing that the rear was unstable, Murong Jun immediately returned to the army, forced all these escapees back to the Great Thorn City, and directly captured Yang Hu who was hiding among the wanderers.
Yang Hu's blatant betrayal of Murong Jun was actually no less harmful to Murong Jun than Mu Yugen's betrayal of Murong Zun. Murong Jun's mood was so angry that it was conceivable that he personally cut Yang Ju's belly to death with a knife, and ordered the whole city to collect the Han portals, including the Yang clan, to kill these Han portals with undead thieves!
Just when Murong Jun was about to start a killing spree, the envoy of the Pingliao Metropolitan Governor's Mansion entered the Great Thorn City, and on behalf of the Metropolitan Governor Hu Run to negotiate with Murong Jun, the Governor Hu was willing to send troops to discuss Murong Zun with Murong Jun, and was willing to help Murong Jun ask the court for a title.
Of course, this is not without a price, the bargaining chip is that Murong Jun must release the Han refugees who fled from the Great Thorn City this time, and the forces must completely withdraw from the west of Liaoshui, and the two sides will temporarily take Liaoshui as the boundary, and the two will not harm each other.
The reason why Hurun was willing to take the initiative to show favor was that he didn't expect the Yang clan to choose such a decisive way to disrupt Murong Jun's military operations, and he didn't care much about the life and death of the Yang family, but this would undoubtedly put the Han people under Murong Jun's control in danger.
The second is that Murong Zunshi opened his mouth to ask Hurun for favors, which also completely angered Hurun, and he was determined to teach this little bastard a profound lesson.
And although there is still no large-scale reinforcement of Liaobian in the country at present, with the end of the war in Shuzhong, coupled with the gratifying results of Hebei's restoration, and the continuous influx of private capital into Liaobian, the power that Hurun can use has been greatly enhanced.
At present, he no longer needs to sit and watch the Murong brothers fight each other, and after eliminating Murong Zun, the military strength of the western Liaoning side can also be liberated, making the situation of Liao affairs go further.
In the face of Hurun's overtures, Murong Jun was not happy, but replied: "If the house slaves are in turmoil, I will punish myself, and I will not work far away!" The rest of his father's and ancestors' business, just a word, dare not give up lightly. In the old years, so it became Liaobian, and the people who were relied on were nothing more than benevolence and righteousness, and it was bitter to see China's blood and tears flowing, and I couldn't bear to live and die in exile. Governor Hu seduced me with this, but he really underestimated no one on the side! ”
Although he did not agree to the proposal of the Hurun Alliance to attack Murong Zun together, and refused to give up the territory west of Liaoshui, he still handed over the Han refugees who had fled this time, including the Han gateways captured a few days earlier, to the envoys of the Dadu Governor's Mansion to take them away.
Hurun, who was far away in Lilinkou, learned of Murong Jun's response, Rao is contempt for these Donghu had accumulated in his heart for a long time, but he also had to sigh: "He Laiba is worthy of the heroes of Huzhong, although Lund is declining, he still has poor muscles and bones. In the old years, Murong Wannian had such a bone or two, and he didn't seek glory from the thief, how could he suffer from this person's misfortune and make the family laugh at the world! ”
These two people are talking in the air, although they have their own strong voices, but they are also scheming. In particular, Hurun, the one-eyed dragon, brought out the old story of Murong Jun's murder of his father and said, which can be regarded as the last stubborn smearing of Murong Jun's filth, and even laughed at Murong Jun, a dead ghost.
However, Murong Jun's declaration was not without gains, at least it was an uplifting and cohesive for the divided and scattered hearts of the Murong Ministry itself.
Murong Jun was by no means as impassioned as his words showed, although he allowed the Han refugees under his rule to leave, he still sent troops to accompany him, in other words, as long as these Han refugees did not enter the area controlled by Wang Shi and successfully settled down, in fact, they were still under Murong Jun's control as hostages.
It is impossible for the flow of people to move fast, and in the process, it will be difficult for the Pingliao Metropolitan Government to launch any large-scale military operations to disrupt the current harmony. Otherwise, Hurun is eager to seek merit and disregard the life and death of these Han people!
You must know that even Murong Jun, who is the chief of Hu and bears the notoriety of killing his father, escorted these Han people away for the sake of benevolence and righteousness, how could Hurun, as the prince of Daliang and the governor of Pingliao, ignore the suffering of the people?
It is precisely because he feels that he has been held hostage by Murong Jun with morality that Hurun sneered at him so viciously to vent his anger. But in addition, it is really inconvenient for him to send troops to act at this time.
Murong Jun's idea was actually to gain a slight moral foothold on this, and then take advantage of the time when the exiles moved westward to quickly start peace talks with Murong Zun. If the two sides continue to fight, the result will be each other's deaths, and this time the alliance proposed by Hurun can be regarded as a dagger, which is enough to force Murong Zun to bow his head.
It should be said that if there are no other variables, Murong Jun's plan has a good chance of succeeding. Murong Zun can also be said to be broken this time, and he has been targeted by the growing Pingliao Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, even if he himself is stubborn and refuses to bow his head, his subordinates will definitely persecute him in order to survive.
But although this kind of thing is invisible, it really exists, Murong Jun's idea is good, but Murong Zun's abacus is even louder, and when he learns that Hu Run not only does not meet his requirements, but wants to join forces with Murong Jun to kill him, it can be described as frightened and angry.
Originally, he was hesitant to take refuge in Daiguo, but now that the situation is so dangerous that he can no longer afford to weigh it carefully, he immediately made a decision and led the crowd to go north directly from Zimengchuan and enter the original sphere of influence of the Yuwen Ministry.
When Murong Jun's envoy arrived in Zimengchuan, he only saw the remnants of the camp left by Murong Zun's army, and his plan to contact Murong Zun to resist the Liang army was frustrated. At this time, Murong Jun actually still had room for struggle, that is, he drove those Han refugees who were still under control to attack the Great Liang army formation, and his rear troops accompanied him to cover up and kill, and maybe he could still fight for a victory.
However, the reaction speed of the Great Liang Wang Division is also not weak, and the troops of the western Liaoning side were dispatched almost at the same time as Murong Zun's withdrawal, when Murong Jun was aware, this road Wang Shi had already entered the Tuhe area, and extended the Tuhe River to point to the Great Thorn City, and several messengers had entered the Great Thorn City in a row, announcing that the Wang Shi felt the benevolence and righteousness of the Murong Department, and let the Han people go by themselves, because they were escorting money and grain to this place as reward compensation.
Of course, the reward is fake, the threat is real, Murong Zun's sudden withdrawal of troops made the west side of the Great Thorn City suddenly empty, directly exposed to the Liang army's troops, if Murong Jun still dares to use strength, what needs to be considered is no longer whether he can fight the Pinglinkou Wang Division, but whether he can defend the Great Thorn City under the Wang Division's exhaustive attack!
This time the turmoil finally ended under the mutual pinching of each other's veins and then mutual restraint, those wanderers successfully arrived at Pinglinkou, and after the Liaoxi Wang Division left a part of the supplies in the Great Thorn City, they also withdrew their troops again, but they replaced the original Murong Zun and occupied Longcheng and Zimengchuan.
Murong Zun's escape completely reversed the situation in Liaobian, although the two brothers attacked each other, the situation was still a pincer posture for the king of Pinglinkou, forcing Hurun to go around outside their sphere of influence. But now, the Great Thorn City has fallen into the siege of the king.
Although the combined forces are strong, and the divisions are weak, the current Wang Shi still does not have the strength to divide the troops to besiege the Great Thorn City. But in the same way, Great Thorn City also does not have the strength to send troops to quickly eliminate one of them, and under this kind of horn clamping, Great Thorn City will only get weaker and weaker.
It's easy to say, and it's just as quick to slap your face.
Previously, Murong Jun was able to have mutual attacks with Murong Zun, and the output provided by the productivity of the Han people under his command contributed a lot. However, with the departure of the Han people along the way, now the Han people around the Great Thorn City have fled, and they are no longer even fleeing, but swaggering and leaving in groups.
This situation lasted until the fifth year of the Great Cause, and although Wang Shi still did not launch an attack on the Great Thorn City, the forces on the periphery continued to develop. In this case, Murong Jun also did not dare to launch a provocation first, seeing his power weaken little by little.
In the summer of the fifth year of the Great Cause, the situation in Liaobian changed again. The Murong army, which originally stole the northeastern part of Liao, was counterattacked by Goguryeo, and the birds occupied the dove's nest, and the Goguryeo forces entered Liaodong again.
This can be described as an opportunity for Murong Jun, who was trapped and waiting to die, and immediately gathered everyone to swear an oath and went to Liaodong to avenge the slave Murong Jun.
For Murong Jun's action, Hurun did not send troops to obstruct it, one is that the pressure on the Liaobian is still great, although Murong Zun has withdrawn from the Liaobian to compete for power, but he has not completely given up, and under the mediation of the country, he has merged with the remnants of the Yuwen Ministry and repeatedly invaded the south, and the second is that Murong Jun has gone east this time, in fact, he recognized Hurun's previous proposal to withdraw from the western border of Liaoshui and seek survival to the east.
In the following years, the Pingliao Metropolitan Governor's Mansion occupied the western border of Liaoshui and continued to develop and expand. And Murong Jun, who crossed the Liaoshui, also attacked each other with Goguryeo in Liaodong.
In the eighth year of the great cause, the Tianzhong Imperial Court finally officially put the Pingliao matter on the agenda, 50,000 troops entered the Liao, and the Pingliao Metropolitan Governor controlled the armies, and the army collapsed in the north and watered, and won several battles, and broke through the Yuwen City in the summer of the ninth year of the Great Cause, and captured the Yuwen Luming, the leader of the Yuwen Ministry, and a number of powerful people, and as early as two years ago, Murong Zun, who had fled to this realm, was killed because of rebellion.
In the autumn of the same year, Wang's army turned south, crossed Liaoshui, and officially began to attack Liaodong. The two sides confronted each other for half a year, and in the winter of the ninth year of the Great Cause, Murong Jun died of gangrene, and his younger brother Murong Ba was supported by the clan, and in the spring and March of the following year, he led the people to surrender to the city of Xiangping in Liaodong.
In the autumn of the tenth year of the great cause, Hu Run, the governor of Pingliao, led the Liao heroes to return to the country to report their merits, and was awarded the title of Changli County Duke for Pingliao merits, and entered the dynasty to serve as Henan Yin. The chieftain Murong Ba and all the ethnic groups, gathered the people in the border wasteland, labored on expeditions, and did not add capital punishment because there was no arrogance, and was punished into official service, and died of old age.
In the twelfth year of the great cause, Pingzhou Thorn History, Yuyang County Gongwen returned to China and awarded the Chinese Book Order.
