Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 551 Determination
There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

Li Yue knew very well who Fu Jian was.

It was at this young and ambitious age that he dared to raise troops and launch the Yunlongmen Revolution at the age of sixteen or seventeen, killing Fu Sheng and usurping the throne.

In the following years, they fought in the south and north, wiped out Guanzhong, and successively annexed Qiuchi, Liangzhou, Hanzhong, and Shuzhong. How could such a person really eat fast and chant Buddha's name?

But no matter what he is doing, Li Yue is bound to win the Yan Kingdom.

After destroying the Yan State, the biggest threat to the north of the Liang State was eliminated. There was no need to deploy heavy troops in the east and they could concentrate on heading west.

At the same time, Liaodong has a population of one million, a large number of cities, fields, and pastures, which are all real benefits.

The land and water support the people. Most of the Chinese people in Liaodong are brave and good at fighting and are not afraid of the bitter cold. In the future, we will depend on them to attack Daiguo and Goguryeo.

Looking around, the only country that can take advantage of it in the short term is Yan State.

Di Qin will either not fight, or he will be overwhelmed by the might of the mountain and kill with one blow. He must not drag his feet.

Just when Li Yue was confused, a memorial from Fu Jian was quickly delivered to Yecheng.

There is no other meaning, just to communicate feelings, cry about poverty, and say that Guanzhong suffered from continuous snow disasters, and asked his uncle Li Yue to support him with some grain and grass. After the autumn harvest, he returned double the amount, and he was extremely humble and said he was a "nephew"...

"I have never seen such a shameless person." Li Yue scolded with a smile, "He dares to do the same thing even though he is a trivial person."

Without this memorial, Li Yue felt that Fu Jian might not necessarily send troops. Now that this incident has occurred, it is almost 100% certain that Fu Jian will send troops.

Chang Wei Nianxu said: "If you are able, show your inability to do so. If you use it, show it is not useful. Attack it when it is unprepared and take it by surprise. The victory of this military strategist cannot be passed on first. Fu Jian must have a deceitful plan."

Cui Hong said doubtfully: "With Fu Jian's strategy, he will not be able to do such a trivial trick."

"He is threatening me not to attack Liaodong!" Li Yue fully understood the meaning behind this memorial.

If you can cheat, cheat. If you can't cheat, it's equivalent to issuing a challenge.

The situation is clear. Di Qin will never watch Liang annex Yan, then withdraw from the east and concentrate on dealing with the west.

The birds of prey are about to attack, and they fly lowly and fold their wings; the beasts are about to fight, and they fall down with their ears muted.

Fu Jian put on a deterrent posture and clearly told the Liang monarch and ministers that he would send troops to intervene.

Chang Wei said: "But where does Di Qin's grain and grass come from?"

Food and grass are not a big deal these days. Ever since the chaos in the late Han Dynasty, people have been eating each other.

Thinking about it conversely, it was precisely because of the lack of food in Guanzhong that Fu Jian had the motivation to send troops and support war with war. There were livestock in Hetao, food in Nanyang, and salt ponds in the east of the river, as well as food and grass.

A horse without night grass is not fat, and a person is not rich without windfall.

If he wants to rise up and plunder the fastest, Fu Jian will naturally not let go of the fat in front of him.

"I thought... Fu Jian might be borrowing money and food from the ascetics when he worshiped the Buddha!"

It was Cui Hong who thought quickly and connected everything in an instant.

There is a logic behind everything.

The only people in Guanzhong who can support Fu Jian are the Samanas. There is no need to doubt the strength of the Samanas. Since the Han Dynasty, Liangzhou has been the place where the Samanas prospered, and the more chaotic the era, the more money they made.

Liang Guo suppressed the Buddha, and Li Yue was exhausted.

"That's it!" Li Yue cast an approving look at him. He is indeed a Jizhou prodigy.

Fu Jian played one set after another, using the Samana to confuse him and listen to it. He played the book to show weakness, but secretly he was sharpening his sword...

"Then where is Fu Jian going to attack me?" Chang Wei frowned.

A two-front war puts greater pressure on logistics.

The current situation was such that a single move affected the entire body, with both sides staring at each other's every move with big eyes.

"Shangyong, Nanyang, Hongnong, Hedong, and Hetao are just these four places. Shangyong is remote and difficult to attack, and the labor is thankless. Hongnong's food is tasteless. There are [-] elite soldiers from Weishan in the east of the river, and Wang Meng in the north for reinforcements. It is difficult to So it's either Hetao or Nanyang." Li Yue casually mentioned Fu Jian's possible attack direction.If the Hetao is exchanged for Liaodong, the business will not be considered a loss.

It's just a strategic choice.

However, based on Li Yue's many years of military experience, Fu Jian is very likely to attack Nanyang.

The land is fertile, the population is large, and the food and grass are abundant. To the east, it can intimidate Xuchang, to the north it can spy on Luoyang, and to the south it can unite with Jiangdong. This is the only place that military strategists must fight for.

Compared with the remote Hetao and heavily defended Hedong, it is definitely more cost-effective to take Nanyang.

As a result, Xu Cheng's pressure increased a lot.

"Fu Jian used Liaodong to control me, why not lure Fu Jian with Nanyang? When Fu Jian comes out from the east, he will be surrounded by heavy troops from three sides and severely defeat Di Qin!" Lu Qing made a rare reply.

Li Yue explained patiently: "First, if our army does not engage the Yan army, Fu Jian will never go out. This person is very good at seizing the opportunity, so we should not underestimate the people in Guanzhong. Second, if our army has heavy troops to wait for Fu Jian , What will happen to the country of Yan? Don’t put the cart before the horse."

At present, it can only be confirmed that Murong Ke is seriously ill, and the Yan State still has a certain counterattack force. All the heavy troops have been sent to Nanyang to besiege Fu Jian. Will the Yan State be destroyed?
And Di Qin's group of people are not ordinary people.

Fu Jian was able to turn his head and reach out to Samana and use it to confuse him, which shows his wisdom and strategy.

At this time, Fu Jianta needed a victory over Liang Guo to boost morale and people's hearts.

"I'm... stupid." Lu Qing quickly handed over his hand.

"Everyone should be able to speak freely in military discussions." Li Yue didn't care.

"I feel that Fu Jian's trip to the east this time is different from the past, so I should tell the king to take more precautions." Chang Wei cupped his hands and said.

The enemy has no moves and can only predict. No one can completely predict the enemy.

And Di Qin is also a difficult opponent.

Li Yueshen agreed, "There is no need to worry about Taiyuan. I have issued an edict, ordering Huan Wen to attack Hanzhong in the middle of Shu to contain the energy of Di Qin. Then I will order the troops from Chenliu Town in Xuchang, Luoyang to go to Wancheng and listen to Xu Cheng's dispatch."

Jin is a country under Liang, so it naturally has to obey the orders of Liang.

Shuzhong and Hanzhong were originally Jiangdong's territories, but they were taken away by Fu Jian. Now is a good time to regain them.

Huan Wen also happened to lack military merit.

The decision was made at this point. The troops came to block the water and the soil. There were important generals to the west, and Wang Meng was stationed in Taiyuan. Fu Jian could not make any waves.

Everything that needs to be prepared is ready, and the ice and snow are quickly melting, leaving only a shallow layer.

Just as [-] Heiyun soldiers were getting ready to go, Lu Qing hurriedly came to report: "Your Majesty, Murong De and Xian Yuliang led [-] cavalry, and came out of the Yinfang stronghold from the north of Yinshan Mountain. They came with a fierce force and defeated our army Duan Zhen's troops. To threaten Jicheng, Murong Ke personally led [-] troops out of Tuhe, and the attack was unsuccessful. General Lu Bo Zao was defeated and retreated to Le'an."

Li Yue was stunned. He didn't even take action. Murong Ke came first. Judging from his posture, he should have prepared earlier than him. He didn't even defend himself. Are you ready to give it a try?
"Murong Ke is about to die soon. He has to fight to the death to gain a few more years of national honor for Yan!"

If there was still a chance for his illness to be cured, he would never take the initiative to attack.

This man is deplorable and pathetic. He has been fighting for the country of Yan all his life, and to this point, he does not hesitate to risk his life.

It's hard to imagine that in this age where fathers are kind, sons are filial to brothers, and friends are respectful, there can still be people like Murong Ke. You must know that the old tradition of the Murong family is for brothers to fight against each other.

If it were anyone else, he would have to pave the way for his descendants first.

After all, there was Sima Yi who set an example before him. He did not usurp the throne, but he risked his old face and paved the way for his son...

Cui Hong said: "In that case, why doesn't Your Majesty just hold on and wait for changes?"

"If you can't stand firm, won't the world think that we, Daliang, are afraid of Yan? This battle must be fought quickly. Murong Ke is here to fight for his life. Don't forget that Fu Jian is still watching in the west. He sent an order to all the armies to mobilize immediately. , follow me to fight Murong Ke!"

The two troops defeated Duan Zhu and repelled Lu Bozao as soon as they were dispatched. How ferocious the attack was?
Li Yue had already sensed Murong Ke's determination!
Jicheng was once the capital of the Yan Kingdom, and Murong Ke was well aware of the reality of the city and the situation of Youzhou's mountains and rivers.

　Second update. The old man at home fell down today and was sent to the hospital. It took some time, so I came back and rushed to write...
