Chapter 115: Dragon City (2)
The situation of Murong Nai and Murong Diao standing side by side came to an end with Murong Nai's death. However, the long battle did not end there. It is said that before the fall of Great Thorn City, a number of loyal subordinates of Murong Nai covered his young son Murong Longcheng, who was still in his infancy, to get out of the siege. Although the number of these people is small, they are all brave and good at fighting, and they are also loyal and determined to take revenge. They took the young master as the call and insisted on confronting Murong Diao. Murong Diao dispatched troops several times, but he was always reluctant to let this gang wander around the northern part of the country. The situation of the entire Murong Xianbei tribe has never really been stable.
In the blink of an eye, many years have passed, and the hearts and abdomen of Murong Nai have gradually withered. However, Murong Diao found that Murong Nai's youngest son, Murong Longcheng, who had become an adult, was also a terrible opponent.
Murong Longcheng once attacked Murong Diao, who was out on light horseback, so that Murong Diao was seriously injured and dying; He also rode alone in the crowd to kill Sun Ding, a powerful general of Murong Diao, who led the army to conquer Fuyu, causing the 50,000 Xianbei army to flee overnight. Since the Yongkang period, the elusive Murong Longcheng has repeatedly assassinated Murong Diao himself and his subordinates, and more than ten thousand horsemen and more than ten thousand chiefs have died under the sword of Murong Longcheng. As a result, Murong Diao's management of the clan was paralyzed several times. Within a few years, the name of the black-clothed assassin Murong Longcheng spread throughout the northern frontier, making people fearful.
Murong Diao tried his best to deal with Murong Longcheng. He mobilized the 'elite' ironclad guards to set up an ambush, but Murong Longcheng killed one person in one step and easily broke out of the encirclement. He also paid a lot of money to invite heroes of all races to serve as guards, but those so-called peerless warriors soon turned into ghosts. Murong Diao was helpless in every possible way, and even sent envoys to try to negotiate with Murong Longcheng in order to seek reconciliation. But the next day, the head of the messenger was actually hung on the head of Changli City!
Although these characters are mere assassins, they can affect the situation of the giant clans in Northern Xinjiang, which is unusual. As Taishi Gong said: "This righteousness may or may not be successful, but its intention is more reasonable, do not deceive its ambition, and its name will be hung in future generations, how can it be vain!" ”
Shao Xu coughed lightly and said slowly: "Although the Changshan thief is powerful, in the eyes of the imperial court, it is just a mustard disease. Therefore, in the back and forth of the edition documents for decades, no one specifically mentioned the identity of its leader. Lord Hu Zhai, can you be sure that the big boss of the Chang Mountain Thieves is Murong Longcheng.
Hu Liuniang naturally has its own unique news channels, since this is the case, it is certain. Shao Xu's words were still polite after all. The court officials are used to deceiving their superiors and subordinates, and in the official documents, it is not only the thieves of Changshan and the thieves of Daijun who must not exist at all. The Great Jin Dynasty is the world's river Qinghai Yan, when the Yanwu cultivates the text, the little 'Mao' thief is trivial, how can it be enough to pollute the ears of the court and the masters! At most, it's just a sentence of plagiarism on behalf of the people of the county. How can such a court's grasp of the local situation be as good as that of Hu Dazhai, the lord of Funiu Village.
For the leader of the Changshan thieves, the court is ignorant and ignorant, but there have long been rumors in the Taihang Green Forest. It is said that this person claims to be surnamed Mu, very young, Yongning and more than 100 subordinates into Changshan, after several years of operation, gradually become one of the strongest in the Changshan group of robbers. In the ninth year of Yuankang, due to the unquiet roads in Daidi, Shi Yu, who was the assassin of Youzhou at the time, sent 10,000 troops to come to clear it. The army of the court knew that the thieves were all scattered. However, when the soldiers camped in Pan County, they were destroyed by this young man surnamed Mu with 800 light cavalry. As a result, the Changshan thieves are very difficult to govern, and the Daijun Qunhu is all intimidated. They are all known as 'big bosses' and not names.
This Murong Dragon City, was it originally the big boss of the Changshan group of thieves?
"Murong Diao has racked his brains for many years to search for the rest of Murong Nai's troops, but he has never been able to detect where their stronghold is. If Murong Longcheng is the leader of the Changshan bandits, this can be explained. Murong Xianbei's forces were concentrated in the areas of Pingzhou and Yingzhou, but the rest of Murong Nai lurked in the westernmost part of Youzhou. The two are thousands of miles apart. Murong Xianbei's hand, how could it reach so far. However, how did they get involved with Duan Xianbei? The inside story behind this Chang thief is really complicated, and everyone went around for a long time before returning to the original topic.
At this time, Chu Kun finally finished cooking the horse's 'meat', and distributed them one by one in a basin, and the rich aroma of 'meat' came to his nose. Hu Liuniang took a small piece in her hand and continued: "Duanbu and Murong are both strong sects in the eastern Xianbei, and the spheres of influence of the two families are 'intertwined', so they fight openly and secretly, and they have never been harmonious. Even though the Murong clan had received the position of Xianbei Governor for generations, they were also very jealous of the Duan Division. In the past, when the two Murong families were infighting, Mu? a class="__cf_email__" href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" data-cfemail="6fb2e02fa7cd">[emailprotected] took the 'daughter' of the chief of the section as his wife, as a sign of deference to the section. However, when Murong was strong, Duanbu's support for Murong Diao was also limited; When Murong Nai died and Murong Diao unified Murong Xianbei, Duan Bu gave great favor to the rest of Murong Nai. The actions at both ends were aimed at suppressing and weakening Murong Xianbei's strength. ”
She looked at the people around her, and said in an accentuated tone: "Duan Bu has spent so much effort to raise this group of Murong Nai's remnants, just to add to Murong Diao's blockage. That Murong Longcheng was originally a powerful person, and he had the support of the Duan Division, so over the years, the strength of the Chang Mountain Thieves had expanded extremely rapidly, and they acted recklessly in the vast area from Fuyang in the east to Wang Tao in the west, and no one dared to attack him. ”
"In other words, Changshan Thief and Duan Bu seem to be located at the east and west ends of Daijun, but they are actually one family. Chang Shan Thief is just a knife in Duanbu's hand? Xue Tong asked with a deep groan.
"Just as General Xue said." Hu Liuniang bowed slightly.
"In that case...... Chang Mountain Thieves have already attacked him, will the Duan Department also make some moves? This is a bit unexpected......" Ding Miao frowned rarely: "What's more, the people of Duan Xianbei and handsome Duan Shi Fuchen stopped in the area of Fuyang and Juyong, if he takes Luochuan directly with a light horse, the morning and evening will come!" TD, how can this be good? ”
Ding Miao's words vaguely had a hint of doubt. He is a 2000 stone general whose status is no less than Lu Yao, and among all the people here, he is the only one who dares to do this.
Lu Yao's army fought in Daijun, and when Tuoba Xianbei was busy preparing for the ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens, and the surrounding people were waiting with bated breath, Daijun who was in the gap between the powerful clans was completely stirred into a pot of porridge. The prerequisite for this is that a strong clan in northern Xinjiang such as Duan Bu will not 'interfere' in a big way. As a result, they were able to seize the county before Tuoba Xianbei's internal strife was settled, and integrate it into another important town in northern Xinjiang against the Hu people.
But now, the Chang Mountain Thief, who was '' by Duan Xianbei, actually reacted so violently, who would dare to assert that Duan Bu would not follow suit? The preconditions set by Lu Yao have already wavered and fallen. Once Duan Bu makes a move, not to mention whether Lu Yao can defeat this powerful Hu clan, just Duan Bu's 'meddling' in the war of Daijun itself will cause a huge 'commotion' in the states and counties along the northern Xinjiang.
When Lu Yao met with Ding Shao, he promised that he would be able to stabilize Daijun and deter the Hu people. In the past, the successive battles were nothing more than the suppression of bandits by the official army, and the scale was small and the connection was very limited. But the current situation, no matter how you look at it, looks like it is about to slide into the abyss of great chaos.
It must be known that since the 'turmoil' in the Great Jin Dynasty, the imperial court in the states and counties of northern Xinjiang has not been able to enforce its orders, and the weakness has gradually become clear to the Hu people. At this time when the Jizhou army is going south to quell the 'chaos', if there is another major event in Daijun, it will definitely affect the whole body and even shake the overall situation of Hebei...... This series of consequences, how not to make Ding Miao anxious!
Ding Miao has never been the deep 'sex' of the city government, his joy and anger are all in the form of his face', and he will say whatever he thinks in his heart. Questioning in front of all the soldiers this time, Xue Tong, Shen Jin and others suddenly sank their faces.
But Lu Yao seemed to feel that Ding Miao's anxiety was not enough.
He tugged at the short black beard under his chin, and said slowly: "Well, Wen Hao is not in a hurry. There is one more thing that must be explained to you. ”
"Please tell me more."
"According to the information spread by the Changshan bandits, a few days ago, when they were plundering a caravan in the Flying Fox Valley Mountain Road, they captured a group of court officials. They claimed to be envoys who visited Danhan Mountain on behalf of Yue Shigong and participated in the Tuoba Xianbei Sacrifice to the Heavens. The leader is Wen Qiao Wen Taizhen...... Well, Brother Wen Hao doesn't want such a look, that's it, Wen Taizhen has fallen into the hands of thieves. ”

It is necessary to write not only the historical background like a story, but also the self-made story like a historical background...... It's really a bit difficult, hoho, this is what it should have been last night, sorry to be slow.
