Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 397 Go Westward
In the future, the decisive battle between Liang and Yan will probably not take place in Lukou or Yecheng, but will break out before Shangdang.

By capturing Shangdang, the Yan army can go south, directly threaten Hanoi and Luozhong, and cut off Yecheng's connection with the Central Plains to the east.

Therefore, the importance of Huguan becomes more and more prominent.

Li Yue promoted Li Yi to the position of governor of Hukou, leading [-] black cloud elites to guard Hukou. Li Qi was appointed governor of Tunliu, leading [-] soldiers to guard Tunliu City and support Hukou at any time. Zhao He was appointed as the school captain, leading [-] black troops. The Yun army guarded Changzi City.

The three of them were all born in the Shangwu Hall and won the martial arts examination. They have a strong affection for each other and will surely be able to unite and defend Huguan.

Liu Laozhi, Zhuge Kan, Gao Heng and others are brave and fearless, suitable for charging on the battlefield.

Li Yi, Li Qi, and Zhao He have studied in Shangwu Hall and Jiangwu Hall for many years. Their martial prowess is not as good as that of Liu Laozhi, Zhuge Kan and others, but they are better in literary and military skills.

Li Yue trained him according to the standards of Han Dynasty scholars.

You can mount your horse to kill the enemy, and you can also dismount your horse to govern the people. The most important thing is to be loyal and don't have to worry about being incited to rebel.

As for Zhang Hao, Zhang Ping and other state generals, they followed Li Yue back to Yecheng.

"Shangdang Gu is left to the three of you. The men who came out of the Shangwu Hall must not fall into the trap of the Black Cloud Army!" Li Yue encouraged the three of them.

"Even if we are shattered to pieces, we will not let down His Highness or Daliang!" The three of them knelt down on one knee.

In the first martial arts competition, the disciples of Shangwu Hall were naturally the focus of training, and Li Yue had high hopes for them.

The war had ceased. After Murong Ke set up defense lines in Yuwu, Luxian and Xiangyuan, he hurried back to Jicheng. Part-time.

The news sent by Jicheng seems to be that the prince of Yan Kingdom, Murong Ye, died of illness, and Murong Jun was too sad and fell ill...

The Murong family was blessed by nature, with strong and handsome men and beautiful women, but their lifespans were not long. Murong Huang died just after he turned fifty, Murong Ye died before he reached twenty, and the oldest Murong Xin only lived to be more than sixty years old.

It is far different from the Sima family who often live to be 90 or [-] years old.

The longevity of the monarch is the foundation of the stability of the country.

If Fu Hong, Fu Jian, and Fu Xiong had lived a few more years, I'm afraid they would never be satisfied with Guanzhong.

Although Murong Jun is not as capable as his father and grandfather, he can at least keep the Yan country going. At this time, there are two shortcomings, and the Yan country is even worse.

As soon as he thought of the Fu family, Yao Xiang's envoy Quan Yi arrived.

"The guest star was born in Dajiao, and Yinghuo entered Dongjing. Dajiao is the seat of the emperor. Dongjing is divided into Guanzhong. In response to the decline of Guanzhong, Fu Sheng first killed his right servant Duan Chun, and then killed his wife Liang. Fu Maogui, Chariot and Cavalry General Liang Leng, and Zuo Pu shot Liang An without asking the reason, and killed him. Prime Minister Lei Ruoer was brave and dared to remonstrate. Fu Sheng killed his entire family, nine children, and 22 grandsons died together. Di Qin The day of defeat is not far away, Governor Yao has contacted the powerful chieftains in Guanzhong and is preparing to attack this autumn!"

"Why so fast?" Li Yue frowned.

Yao Xiang was too impatient.

Recently, he has been fighting fiercely with Sanxue, and his strength has increased so much that he doesn't even want Hanoi, and concentrates on running Hedong.

But it is also understandable. Four or five years ago, Yao Yizhong had the intention of making progress in Guanzhong when he was alive, but he could not compete with Fu Hong. In the battle at Fangtou, [-] elite soldiers were killed and their vitality was severely damaged.

Yao Xiang is not young anymore. He is past his age, but he does not have a stable foundation.

"The dramatic changes in Guanzhong are unprecedented in a thousand years. Fu will be angry and resentful. If he doesn't take action, he is afraid that the Fu family will kill himself."

"How about sending an elite team to help?" Li Yue's eyes flashed.

The Yao family couldn't accommodate such a large Guanzhong, so the Heiyun Army followed him in, first to assist him, and secondly to find a place to stay and prepare for the future.

Although Fu Sheng went on a killing spree, he only targeted powerful chiefs and noble relatives and did not attack the soldiers.

Di Qin's fighting power is still there.

Even if Yao Xiang plus San Xue are not necessarily opponents, at least in the short term, they cannot destroy the Fu clan. After the Fu clan defeated Huan Wen, they basically established a firm foothold in Guanzhong.

"Thank you for your highness's kindness. Governor Yao turned all the way from Huainan to this place and was protected by your highness. It's really not good to trouble General Heiyun this time." Quan Yi declined.My wings are hardened and I can’t wait to fly solo.

Li Yue said: "In that case, I won't force myself."

The melon that is forced is not sweet. Yao Xiang insists on rushing forward alone, and no one else can stop him.

The greater the benefit, the greater the risk. Yao Xiang may have forgotten that Fu Sheng is also an enemy of ten thousand people...

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Quan Yi bowed his hand.

After sending Quan Yi away, Cui Hong shook his head and said: "If Yao Xiang waits for another one or two years, Guanzhong will be in chaos. It's a pity that he is too impatient."

Li Yue thought for a while, "Yao Xiang's subordinates are all powerful chiefs in Guanzhong. Even if he is willing to wait, his people may not be willing to stay in Hedong and Hongnong. The Murong family is in the north, the Huanwen family is in the south, and the Fu family is in the west. Now The Murong clan has not yet established a firm foothold in Bingzhou, and Huan Wen is busy defending Huainan. For them, it is the best time to take action. They will wait for a year or two for the decisive battle between Yanliang and Liang. They will be involved in it, and they will have no chance to advance westward. ”

Everyone will view the current situation in their own interests.

Now is not the best time to take action, but it is not a bad time either. There is still a chance.

Li Yueneng could feel that the Yao Xiang Group was not as afraid of Liang Guo as Yan Guo.

In a year or two, Liang will be more powerful and will have stronger control over them.

"Your Highness is right."

"You can't relax about the matter in Yecheng. When you return to Yecheng, you will focus on this matter." Li Yue changed the subject.

Careful espionage can do far more harm to a country than external enemies.

"I already have some features. It seems to be Liu Shang, Liu Lingjun's son..."

"Liu Shang?" Li Yue was stunned, recalling that this person was extremely low-key, rarely appeared in public, and focused on running the family business.

The Zhongshan Liu brand has regained its luster in his hands.

If it was Liu Shang, then it would make sense for Liu Qun to die on hunger strike.

In order to protect his son and family, Liu Qun risked his life.

The Ze of Gentlemen, he will be executed in the fifth generation.

But in fact, most of the second and third generations were defeated.

"I just speculate that since His Highness's Western Expedition, people from the Liu family have frequently gone north and south, and they should be contacting Murong Ke and Huan Wen."

"It can't seem like it should be, it must be verified secretly." Li Yue warned.

The Liu family is no small matter and has a huge influence in Kanto. If they are touched, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction among other noble clans, and the commotion will not be small.

"I know." Cui Hong held his hand.

The war came to an end, and Yan and Liang each took what they needed. Now that Murong Ke has returned to Jicheng, he will not be able to start a war for a while.

Li Yue then led his army back to Yecheng.

We have managed to survive this year, but various internal and external forces have blocked the reform and failed to achieve our goals.

Counting the time, the autumn harvest is just around the corner, and the reforms presided over by Wang Meng will see some results after the autumn harvest.

Li Yue was full of expectations.
