Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 458
While discussing the remaining details with Wang Meng, the Huangmen outside the palace reported: "Your Highness, a messenger is coming from the clouds!"

Wang Meng laughed, "Tuoba Shiyi Jian must be here for Daijun!"

Li Yue spread his hands and said, "I am so troubled by him. Daijun's military strategists have to fight for the land, with Youyan on the left, Bingyong on the right, and looking north to the grassland. How can I give it to him?"

Historically, the Central Plains dynasty's attacks on grassland forces always started from Daijun.

In the spring of the fourth year of Han Dynasty (119 BC), the then 21-year-old Huo Qubing led 2000 cavalrymen out of Dai County and went deep into Mobei. Cooperating with Wei Qing, the infantry turned to hundreds of thousands of troops to find and annihilate the main force of the Xiongnu and march north. For more than 83 miles, we crossed Lihou Mountain and crossed the Gonglu River. We captured 440 Xiongnu people, including the Tuntou King, Han King, generals, prime ministers, danghus, and captains. They beheaded [-] people of the third level, and sealed the wolf as a Xu. The Xiongnu were far away. Escape, there is no more royal court in Monan.

In the 23rd year of Jian'an (218 years) of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, Cao Zhang attacked Wuhuan and Xianbei, and went out of Dai County to the north of Sangqian and defeated them. Kebi Neng sent tens of thousands of horses to watch and saw that Cao Zhang was brave and invincible, so he surrendered. If you don't dare to go south, you will be safe in the north.

If the grassland forces control Daijun, they will have a gateway to attack the Central Plains.

Similarly, the Central Plains Dynasty had Daijun and had a starting point to attack Mobei.

Moreover, there are many elite soldiers and generals in Dai County. Tuoba Shi Yijian would not give him a place like this even if his throat was broken.

Otherwise, how can we be worthy of the soldiers who shed blood and sweat on the battlefield?
"Your Highness has now achieved great success, and for the sake of peace between the two families, I hope to return it to Dai Jun. Dai Wang is very grateful!" After the greetings, the envoy opened his mouth to ask for Dai Jun.

The name of Tuoba Shiyijian's country is "Dai", so it is impossible to abandon this place.

"So, King Dai is threatening Gu?" Li Yue stared at the envoy.

"I don't dare. If His Highness takes over Daijun and does not return it, the ministers will have resentments, and it will be very difficult for King Dai to deal with it. I hope Your Highness will think more about it." The envoy refused to give in.

If it weren't for Weng's son-in-law's sake, Li Yue would have turned against him on the spot, "If you have a plan, you can report it to the king. You and I will attack Murong Chui together, and then Yanmen can be returned to your family."

This is Li Yue's bottom line.

Yandai, Yandai, Yanmen and Daijun are on the same geographical plate, not much different from Daijun.

The envoy was still hesitating, but Li Yue waved his hand: "Send off the guest."

But he had a clear understanding in his heart that Tuoba Shi Yijian would never satisfy a Yanmen, and it was only a matter of time before he fell out with him.

Back in the harem, Li Yue went directly to see Tuoba Yushu. Looking at her swollen belly, he felt a little ashamed. This time he had to deal with his father and clan members.

But in this era, there is no choice.

Tuoba Shi Yijian would not care about a daughter, and Li Yue would not change his mind because of a woman.

"Why is Your Highness free to come here today to find my concubine?" Tuoba Yushu was a little happy and a little surprised.

Compared with Cui Yansi who wants this and that, Tuoba Yushu has the simplicity of the grassland.

As long as he can see Li Yue, he will be very happy.

"Since you are pregnant, please don't wander around." Li Yue supported her, and the maids backed away automatically.

Tuoba Yushu chuckled, "How can I be so weak? When my aunt was attacked by a pack of wolves, she gave birth to a baby on a horse, and even had to shepherd sheep after dismounting."

Li Yue laughed and said: "Nonsense."

Tuoba Yushu became anxious, his face full of innocence, "Really, I never lie."

Li Yue laughed loudly, feeling half physically and mentally exhausted.

She also laughed heartlessly.After laughing, Li Yue tried to say: "My father-in-law sent someone to ask for Daijun, what do you think?"

The emperor's family affairs are state affairs.

Tuoba Yushu is simple but not stupid. When the Xianbei envoy came, he also met with her and must have told her a lot in advance. Li Yue was curious that she never blew the wind, so he simply made it clear to prevent her from accumulating in her mind.

"Back then, my lord married my eldest sister to the Tiefu tribe. The Huns were not kind to her. She died of illness within two years. I sent my second sister over. I am satisfied that I can serve my husband. Now that I am pregnant, , Of course he is from Liang!" Tuoba Yushu touched his belly with a maternal look on his face.

Li Yue felt a burst of love in his heart and hugged her into his arms. With her words, he felt safe in his heart.

From another perspective, if Tuoba Shi Yijian had the chance to invade Yecheng that day, he would never show mercy because of his daughter.

In troubled times, the fate of women is even more miserable.

For several days, Li Yue came to accompany Tuoba Yushu whenever he had time.

I feel a lot more relaxed...

In the clouds, Shengle City.

Li Yue was relaxed, but Tuoba Shi Yijian looked gloomy at this moment.

"Now that Liang is strong and powerful, we cannot be enemies with it. Yanmen is connected to Yunzhong, so we can take it..." Zuo Chang Shi Yanfeng said cautiously.

This man was proficient in the art of Yang and the study of prophecy, and was well versed in classics and history. He was extremely talented. After Tuoba Shiyijian heard about his reputation, he recruited him several times, but Yanfeng refused to accept it, which angered Tuoba Shiyijian. , led tens of thousands of troops to besiege the city of Pingshu, his hometown. The overlord forced his bow and threatened to slaughter Pingshu without leaving any chickens or dogs if Yanfeng did not assist him.

Yanfeng was forced to go out of the mountain and board Tuoba Shiyijian's pirate ship.

However, although he was forced, Tuoba Shi Yijian treated him well, treated him as a guest, and used him as a planner and to participate in state affairs.

"Hmph, then Li Yue is greedy. If Gu agrees, he will make further progress. He will order Gu to attack Liaodong. Will Gu obey or not?" Tuoba Shi Yijian knew Li Yue's thoughts very well.

He didn't take his father-in-law seriously at all, and just wanted the entire Dai Kingdom to serve as pawns of Liang Kingdom.

Besides, Yanmen was in the hands of Murong Chui, so it was not easy to take it down. Tuoba Shi Yijian had already suffered a big loss in Murong Chui's hands, and he was deeply afraid of it.

"The King of Liang is greedy and will attack the key points one day. At this moment, it is not appropriate to turn against each other. It is better to surrender temporarily, wait and see what happens, strengthen the troops, and train the soldiers. One day, the Liang Kingdom will fight against Guanzhong and Jiangdong. It will not be too late for Your Highness to turn against you again!" Yan Feng looked feminine.

"How long will it take to wait? If he annexes Guanzhong and Jiangdong, what chance will I have? I can't swallow this!" Tuoba Shi Yijian is not a forbearing person, and he can't wait until that time.

"In that case, there is only one way." Yanfeng said calmly.

"Say it quickly." Tuoba Shi Yijian couldn't wait any longer.

"After Dai Guo lost its commandery, its vitality was severely weakened. If you want to resist Liang Guo, you must unite Murong Ke, Murong Chui, and Fu Jian. A four-party offensive and defensive alliance may be able to contain it."

The country of Dai owns the land of Monan, which happens to be bordered by all the major forces at the same time.

Therefore, it is best for Dai Guo to act as the middleman.

This was also done before when they united with the Liang Kingdom to attack the Yan Kingdom. Now that the Liang Kingdom poses the greatest threat, Tuoba Shi Yijian is unwilling to act as a puppet and can only unite with other forces.

Tuoba Shi Yijian was overjoyed and said, "Great kindness! Murong Ke, a great scholar in the world, will definitely put aside his past grievances and form an alliance with me. Murong Chui is alone in Taiyuan and needs allies. Liang is tyrannical and Qin is the first to bear the brunt. Fu Jian is extremely smart and will definitely You won’t reject me!”
