Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 430 Reaching the City
Strength determines attitude.

In the past, every time he went out to fight, he would be a little nervous, but now Li Yue feels as stable as a rock.

The [-] black cloud elites under his command are backed by the Central Plains, which has the richest heritage in the world. After several years of development, the balance of power and weakness has changed.

As long as the Yan army is suppressed militarily, the Yan state will decline and even fall apart.

The dark army marched forward against the wind and snow.

Sonorous and powerful footsteps hit the cold ground hard, and the soldiers were extremely excited, as if they were not going to fight, but to attend a banquet.

A long black dragon surged out of Yecheng and headed towards the snowy north.

The common people went out of the city to send each other off, forcing boiled eggs and wheat cakes to the soldiers of Heiyun, "Drive away the Xianbei traitors and recover Youzhou!"

The elders warned earnestly.

Children run back and forth wearing straw sandals.

Inappropriate name.

With the vigorous propaganda of Honglusi, this war is full of sanctity - to regain the lands we once lost!

Therefore, the eyes of the soldiers became more solemn and solemn.

Seeing Li Yue's toothbrush slowly coming out, the people immediately burst into a tsunami-like shout: "The King of Liang will win, and Heiyun will win!"

In an instant, the wind and snow were no longer so cold.

This war is not about Li Yue alone, but about the future of the entire north and the fate of all the people living on this land.

Victory can save more than 300 years of killing and chaos in the Sixteen Kingdoms, Southern and Northern Dynasties.

Defeat, everything returns to the origin of history...

Looking at the pious faces, the wind and snow seemed not so cold anymore, and Li Yue suddenly felt a huge sense of mission on his shoulders.

History is created by the common people, but it will speed up or twist because of one or two heroes.

"Murong Ke is famous all over the world. I, Zhang Hao, have long wanted to meet him!" A loud roar came from behind, and Zhang Hao galloped past with more than a thousand cavalry carrying a spear.

"That's awesome!" Li Yue laughed loudly.

What you need in a war is this momentum.

Murong Ke has been famous for nearly twenty years. He is not only the pillar of the Yan State, but also the soul of the Yan Army. If he can be defeated, the morale of the Yan State will fall to the bottom.

The [-] Heiyun Army marched north, with [-] town troops gathered from various places behind them. Chang Wei mobilized [-] young and strong men and women in Yecheng to transport grain, grass, supplies, and siege equipment.

Strategically despise the enemy and tactically respect it.

In this battle, Li Yue was extremely cautious and planned every step of the way. Before fighting, he first consolidated the grain road, with one sentry for ten miles, one camp for twenty miles, and one earth fort for fifty miles. He also sent a large number of scouts to admonish the areas around the grain road, and also ordered Cao Kan to lead the way. Guarded by five thousand fine knights.

The three armies went ahead without using food and grass.

The biggest reason why Ran Min was defeated by Xiang Guo was the lack of food and grass, so he could only choose to fight quickly.

In this battle, all the elites of Liang and Yan came out to attack a fortress like Xiangguo. No one knew how long the battle would last.

"Report to your highness that Murong's army abandoned Handan, Wu'an, Feixiang and other cities and reduced its troops to Xiangguo." The scout came against the wind and snow.

These cities are sandwiched between Xiangguo and Yecheng, and have always been the buffer zone between the two countries.

The cities are dilapidated, small, and located on the plains, making them easy to attack and difficult to defend. It is not worthwhile to invest troops in these cities.

Before arriving in Xiangguo, Li Yue did not encounter any obstruction, but received a letter from Murong Ke.

The letter was very short, with only a few words, "The King of Liang is here, does he want to follow Ran Min's old deeds?"

Li Yue didn't take it seriously.

Murong Ke was deliberately irritating him, but it was a pity that he was not Ran Min.In this battle, the main focus is on stability, using the right combination and winning by surprise.

Li Yue's path is righteous, while the other two paths are odd.

The main force of the Yan Kingdom was held on the frontal battlefield, and it was unrealistic to pursue a quick victory.

In most battles in history, when the strength is equal, it actually depends on who can't survive it first.

"What is Murong Xuan's congratulations on? How many female relatives are there?" Li Yue asked the envoy curiously.

The envoy was well-mannered and looked like a scholar from the North. He looked wary and said, "My general eats a bucket of rice and has ten pounds of meat. He is not a womanizer. In his free time, he reads more military books and practices martial arts. He is not a womanizer."

If you eat a bushel of rice and ten pounds of meat for one meal, is this still a human being?

To explain is to cover up.

Murong Ke was responsible for all the military affairs at home and abroad in Yan. All the major military leaders in the country were not efficient, and Murong Jun was not a good person. Murong Ke was caught in the middle and was stuck on both sides. You can imagine what kind of life he had.

Usually, people who care about everything internally and externally in this way will not live long.

Li Yue laughed loudly, "You are talking nonsense."

Without talking nonsense to him, he immediately wrote on Zuo Bo's paper, "I am just waiting for Xuan Gong to enter the jar" and asked the envoy to take it back.

Now that Wang Meng is under his command, if there is another Murong Ke, who in the world can defeat him?

But this is fantasy after all.

People like Murong Ke would never surrender.

There was no obstruction along the way, and the army arrived directly at the gate of Xiangguo City.

After Shile captured Hebei, in accordance with the proposal of the planner Chang Bin, the Xiang State was based on the mountains and the dangerous situation, so it was established as its capital. It took 18 years to complete the construction, and the live spring water was circulated in the city to prevent the enemy from cutting off the water source.

There are four sub-cities outside the city, all of which guard their key points.

Shi Le relied on this place to eliminate the major forces in the north one by one and unify Hebei.

After Murong captured this place, he carried out many reinforcements.

"Is Murong Ke going to send troops?" Li Yue looked at these cities and suddenly understood why Ran Min fell into the sand. Just by attacking by force, he didn't know how many loyal and brave soldiers had to be filled with flesh and blood.

"Never before, only Murong Ping's 6 troops were stationed in Zhongshan, and Murong Chui's 3 troops were stationed in Lu County!" Zhang Shengye reported.

"They are going south and north, they are trying to encircle me!" Li Yue could see their intention at a glance.

Murong Chui, Murong Jun, and Murong Ping all appeared. The Yan army on the front line of Xiang State was nearly 12. The Murong family only lacked Murong Ke as a general.

Mu Yugen stayed in Shuzhou and did not move. He was also on guard against Jia Jian, Lu Bozao and Cui Jin on the east road.

"Murong Ke didn't come, so the battle couldn't be fought. Send the order, build a fortress with deep trenches and high fortresses!" Li Yue sneezed.

Although the snow has stopped, the cold wind is as cold as a knife.

"Murong generals, Murong Ping's appearance is false. The last general thought that he should surprise him, attack Zhongshan, and then attack Changshan to cut off the connection between Xiangguo and Youzhou. Then Xu Tuxiangguo lured Murong Chui to come to help, surrounded and killed this man. Cut off Murong Ke's arm!" Xu Cheng said with cupped hands.

In the past two years, Xu Cheng has been leading the troops and acting alone, and his demeanor has become more and more calm. In the past, it felt like a sword was unsheathed, but now, the sword has been sheathed.

"The last general is willing to serve as the vanguard, and I will present Murong Ping's head within ten days!" Zhang Hao heard that there was such a good thing, and he quickly asked for a fight.

Xu Cheng glanced at him sideways, but did not fight for it.

If it were anyone else, Li Yue would just take it as bragging, but Zhang Hao would be a different story.

Murong Ping seemed to have the most troops, but he was actually the weakest among the generals. His record of decades was not as impressive as the second-line Yan generals such as Murong Jun and Murong Qian.

Who do not hit him?
