Ancestor Bless: I built a thousand-year-old family

Chapter 736 Your Majesty, I am back!
The defeat of Yuan Shao's army became more and more obvious, and even Lu Bu began to become anxious.

Zhang Liao and others have already begun to persuade Lu Bu to return to Bingzhou. To achieve this level is considered to be the most benevolent and righteous, and no one can criticize them.

If it doesn't work, take the eldest lady back to Bingzhou. Can a daughter still disobey her father?
Everyone looked at Jizhou. When would the army taken away by Luo Yan return to Guandu?
That army will greatly affect the direction of the war and the fate of everyone who follows.

In Jizhou, Luo Yan is deep in the quagmire of war.

Jizhou was too flat. After Youzhou was broken through, the northern part of Jizhou fell quickly.

Fortunately, the State of Zhao has been established and its cohesion has been greatly improved. The nobles of the State of Zhao opposed the invasion of the State of Yan and still stood on the side of the State of Zhao.

After Luo Yan returned to Yecheng, he began to organize a resistance to Yan's invasion.

But the effect is really not good.

He was not an unparalleled military genius like Han Xin. He could not use a partial army to conquer the northern countries. He could only try his best to block Yan's move south.

But when fighting on the plains, cavalry is king.

With more and stronger cavalry, the Yan State traveled back and forth among Zhao's cities, constantly attacking Zhao's food routes and population, and most importantly, destroying the ruling order.

Under this situation, many of Zhao's cities have become isolated points, and it is inevitable that the power Luo Yan can mobilize will be reduced.

Luo Yan has a lot of cavalry, but not many real armored cavalry. It is difficult to resist the tactics of encirclement and reinforcement.

Youzhou is the Sixteenth State of Yanyun in later generations, and its importance can be imagined.

Zhao Guo, who lost Youzhou, was like a house with air leaks everywhere.

As a tinkerer, Luo Yan is like using one brick to plug ten holes. No matter how fast he plugs the holes, there will always be air leakage.

Being able to achieve this level now is already quite extraordinary, and Shenpei's commanding ability plays a very important role in it.

News from Guandu kept spreading to him, and the situation became more critical day by day.

After he returned to Yecheng and took away a large number of troops, he did not go back even after passing through Yecheng countless times. He was quite similar to Dayu's spirit of controlling floods and not entering his house three times.

All his energy was focused on how to get Yan to retreat. It was not until the coalition forces of the princes arrived that Luo Yan finally had some ideas.

……

When Yan Lin heard that Luo Yan wanted to talk to him, his expression could only be described as wonderful, but in the end Yan Lin agreed to Luo Yan's request to talk to him, which was considered a favor to Luo.

After the two met, the atmosphere was not bad.

Luo Yan first asked why Yan Lin wanted to attack Zhao. Yan Lin did not shy away and directly told what Gongsun Zan said.

"Gongsun Zan..."

Only then did Luo Yan know who was responsible for all this. Unexpectedly, it was Gongsun Zan, and he recalled Gongsun Zan's brave battles over the past few days.

He couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I didn't expect that Gongsun Zan was very poor as a monarch, but he had the talent of a political leader.

For his own selfish desires, he was able to provoke a war between the two countries, causing Zhao and Yan to perish together.

The foreign ministers really have to admire Emperor Yan for having such ministers under your command. "

Yan Lin raised his eyebrows when he heard this and said, "Master Yan, why did you say this?"

Luo Yan still had the emotion on his face and asked calmly: "Is His Majesty Yan Emperor sure that he can capture the remaining land of Zhao State?
Is His Majesty the Emperor Yan willing to continue to confront our Zhao State in Jizhou?
How long can the food and grass in His Majesty Emperor Yan's kingdom last? "

Yan Lin's face looked a little ugly, but he still said: "I don't have to worry about you, Mr. Yan. By the time our country, Yan, is exhausted, Jizhou will probably be starved to death, and the country will be devastated."

Luo Yan smiled and said, "Yes, that's exactly what I said, and that's what I'm worried about for you.

If it gets to that point, Zhao's demise may be doomed.

But what does Yan State have to face?

Cao Cao, Liu Bei and the Han princes.

I'm afraid your Majesty still doesn't know that the allied forces of the Han Dynasty princes have arrived in Henan. When the Zhao Kingdom is destroyed, what you will face is the complete Han Dynasty.

The foreign minister is really worried that your Yan State can really hold on to these lands?
What would these Han princes do when faced with another emperor?

That is beyond the imagination of foreign ministers.

Does Gongsun Zan know this?

The same is beyond the imagination of foreign ministers. "

Yan Lin was startled when he heard this, his eyes narrowed, and he felt that Luo Yan was right, but he still said: "Gongsun Bogui is right, and you are right, sir, so where is the mistake? ?
Could it be that I, Dayan, can neither attack nor retreat?

It would be better to just say that I, Dayan, cannot exist in this world. The people of Yan country will not agree with this. "

Luo Yan knew that it was absolutely impossible to make Yan Lin spit out what he got in just a few words.

People in this world only want to be hungry ghosts, and no one wants to be hungry ghosts.

Luo Yan sighed and said: "Your Majesty, during the Zhou Dynasty, the State of Qi used the State of Yan as a buffer and barrier against the East Hu Dynasty. The Emperor of Zhou even granted a large number of princes to protect the Zhou royal family as a barrier. If you don't want to be with the Han Dynasty, If there is a direct conflict, the best way is to let Zhao Guo serve as a buffer between you and the Han Dynasty.

Zhao Guo was stationed in the south of Jizhou, just like the foreign ministers were fighting for one city after another.

If the Han princes want to attack, they will bleed.

I'm afraid I'll be exhausted by the time I face you. Can't you still win by then?

After destroying Zhao State, what you will have to face is endless resistance.

Is there anyone in the world who doesn’t know the prestige of my great king, Zhao?
If you are willing to let Yuan's seeds stay in Yecheng, we can use the current territory to divide the territory, which is for you.

Wouldn't that be a better outcome? "

Luo Yan presented the truth and told Yan Lin the disadvantages of completely conquering Zhao.

In other words, it is impossible for him to completely capture the State of Zhao, because Cao Cao and Liu Bei will enter the territory of the State of Zhao.

In this land, only those with the support of the Yuan family can capture Jizhou faster.

If the Yuan family is not to quickly defect to the Han Dynasty, then the Yan State must stop here and move forward to harm others and itself.

Yan Lin glanced at Luo Yan and said, "Master Yan, there is no future in Zhao State. Are you willing to join the officialdom of Yan State?

I am willing to give you the position of prime minister.

You should know that when Yan State takes over Jizhou and Qingzhou, it will be lucky enough to swallow up the whole world.

Now that I think about it, maybe God is in love with me, Dayan, and am I the emperor who has been appointed by God? "

Luo Yan smiled and shook her head and said: "Your Majesty, these words of yours should not be said to a Luo family member. Since ancient times, where has there been a Luo family member who has served the two masters?"

Yan Lin was stunned when he heard this, and then slowly laughed, "This is my fault, yes, where can I find a Luo son who serves the second master?

Let's make an agreement according to what you said, Master Yan. "

After saying that, Yan Lin left directly. When Luo Yan informed Shen Pei of the news, Shen Pei said anxiously: "Master, this Yan Lin just betrayed our covenant, how can we trust him now?"

Luo Yan sighed after hearing this: "Yes, how could I believe him? How could I fall twice on the same mistake?

Yan Lin can be persuaded by Gongsun Zan or me, but there is no guarantee who he will be persuaded next time.

But now besides this method, is there any other way?
If our army can no longer withdraw from Jizhou, the king will die in Guandu. Look at the king's heirs, which one can fight against heroes like Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Yan Lin?
It's okay to be a peaceful monarch.

In such a time of great strife, if the king dies, our country, Zhao, will have no hope at all.

I led the army back to Guandu and re-established a defensive line along the river.

If it were just Cao and Liu, there might not be anything they can do, but now that there is a coalition of princes, it might be possible to incite a few people to rebel and jointly destroy the Han Dynasty.

due south.

Yecheng and Jizhou will be left to you. The young men in Jizhou who have been recruited may not be enough for field battles, but they are enough to defend the city. Be careful with Yan Lin, he is capricious and may break the promise again. "

After hearing what Luo Yan said, Shen Pei knew that Luo Yan had considered all aspects and that this was the last resort, so he bowed and said: "Pei must guard Jizhou well. Don't worry, Commander-in-Chief. Anyone who wants to seize Jizhou will have to do it." You have to step over Shen Pei’s corpse.”

As the Yan army gradually retreated for hundreds of miles, a long no-man's land separated the two sides, and Luo Yan led the army back south.

When passing Yecheng, he seemed to see an extremely beautiful woman on the top of the city from a distance.

Even from such a distance, he still guessed, "That's Mi'er."

Zhen Mi looked at the Zhao army, with a high Zhao flag and a high Luo flag. She knew that the husband she thought about day and night was among the army.

But Luo Yan has big things to do.

The housekeeper who was born in the Luo family and was also the captain of his personal soldiers whispered: "Master, it is not too much to take a rest after passing through Yecheng and meet the wife."

Luo Yan was silent, and after a long time she said, "No, none of the soldiers have ever returned home."

After that, he said to several soldiers in the team: "You don't have to follow me anymore, go and protect my wife."

The soldiers didn't say anything and left the military camp. After leaving the military camp, the strong men outside turned into strong women. They were spiritual soldiers without flesh and blood.

The army bypassed Yecheng and continued to advance, while the envoy went to Guandu first.

Luo Yan encouraged the soldiers who looked a little tired after a long battle, and his own spirit became even tighter.

Since the beginning of the war, an endless burden has been placed on him, almost as much as the burden on Yuan Shao.

He wanted to know what the situation in Guandu was like now.

I heard that Yan Liangwen Chou died in battle.

Can the army still withstand the attack?
Your Majesty, I am back with an army!
how are you
