Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 641 Double jade

Wugong is not far from Yongcheng.

So Wang Meng's movements were quickly detected by Murong Chui.

If there were a few people in the world who could fall into Murong Chui's eyes, Wang Meng would definitely be among the best.

Murong Chui was undefeated, but he was defeated twice by Wang Meng. Once in Julu, when his army of hundreds of thousands was blocked by Wang Meng's 30,000 troops, and once in Shangdang, when Wang Meng was as powerful as a rainbow, Murong Chui avoided him. No fight.

"Building the plank road in the open and building it in secret? Wang Jinglue's talent...is far superior to mine." Murong Chui admired Wang Meng's military strategy partly, and his courage.

Dare to fight, dare to charge, dare to act.

In contrast, Murong Chui had lived with his tail between his legs for most of his life. He was jealous of Murong Jun in Yan State, but when he arrived in Liang State, he did not dare to be too showy for fear of attracting others' attention.

But now, Murong Chui felt that the mountain above his head was gone.

The emperor married Murong Ling as a princess, and the two became in-laws, which was equivalent to bringing Murong Chui into the core power circle of Daliang.

From ancient times to the present, marriage has been an important measure to stabilize the relationship between the two parties.

Only then did Murong Chuang's hanging heart finally fall to the ground.

After the engagement, Murong Chui's mentality also changed. In the past, he always felt like being dependent on others, but now he feels that he is a member of China and is truly accepted by Daliang.

"How can people like Fu Fang, Liang Cheng, and Zhou Chu be the enemies of the king? Hanzhong will soon be defeated!" Gao Bi has been following Murong Chui loyally.

Murong Chui thought for a while and then said: "Fu Luo has been destroyed now, and the Northern Kingdom is about to be unified. The only one who is not a minister in Guanzhong is Yao Chang. I want to attack Longyou and kill Yao Chang, what should I do?"

The drought in Guanzhong has been lifted, the Wei River is gradually filling up, and water sources are no longer a problem.

After sweeping through Henan, there were many livestock left in the army and there was no shortage of food. The eight thousand black cloud troops under his command were transformed into cavalry.

Moreover, Jieting, the choke point into Longyou, is also in hand.

The right time, the right place, the right people, and everything.

Murong Chui's desire to make contributions to his career increased accordingly. At the age of forty, it was the age when a man was at his peak.

"Although His Majesty favors you, you should still be cautious. The general has eight thousand elite black clouds. It is not difficult to defeat Yao Chang, but it is difficult to capture Longyou. My subordinates suggest that we first write to Luoyang and join forces with Fu Ya to attack from the east and west, which is the safest way. "Tao." Gao Bi cupped his hands and said.

In a field battle, the Black Cloud Army has an absolute advantage, but Yao Chang will definitely not fight in the wild.

Moreover, Longyou is not as good as Hetao. Deng Aidu was in town here and built many forts, making the city strong. The key is that Yao Chang also received the support of the powerful Qiang Xia in Longyou.

The last time we were able to advance into Longyou, we were completely unprepared.

Yao Chang also made a lot of preparations.

Murong Chui said: "Soldiers are valuable and quick, the nights are long and dreams are many, and the reports come and go, and the news is leaked. It is better to raise troops, ask Fu Ya for help, and go to the court on the other, a three-pronged approach!"

Report to the imperial court, wait for the imperial court to pass it, and then send an order to Liangzhou. It will take at least three months to get it done.

There are many Qiang in Liangzhou. As long as Fu Ya mobilizes troops, the news will definitely be leaked, and the effect of surprise troops will not be achieved.

Before, Murong Chui would never have dared to do this.

On the other hand, Murong Chui also wanted to secretly compete with Wang Meng. If you take Hanzhong, I will capture Longyou.

"Fu Ya is well versed in military strategy, and Yao Chang is in serious trouble. He will definitely send troops. I'm afraid someone in the court will criticize him." Gao Bi was still a little worried.

"Hahaha, no one will criticize me if I win Longyou. If I don't win, I am willing to be punished." Murong Chui cheered up, as if he was ten years younger and returned to the days of fighting and iron horses.

If he was punished, Wang Meng wouldn't be able to escape.

So in the final analysis it still depends on whether it can be successful. The general is guarding the border areas and must ask the court for instructions on everything, so there is no need to fight this battle.

"General... his power remains the same as before." Gao Bi shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Without further delay, gather the soldiers and leave five hundred people to guard the city. The others will follow me to make contributions!"

The two top generals of the Liang Kingdom worked in tandem and decisively sent troops...

Official roads and inns were built from Luoyang to Chang'an. After the capital was moved to Luoyang, news from Guanzhong could be delivered to Luoyang in only seven or eight days.

If it is expedited within 600 miles, it can be delivered in three or four days.

Moving the capital to Luoyang strengthened control over Guanzhong.

However, Wang Meng and Murong Chui attacked Hanzhong and Longyou without authorization, which still caused quite a shock.

There was an immediate debate in the court, with most people reprimanding Wang Meng for his audacity.

"If generals from all over the country act like this, I'm afraid that one day there will be swords and armies attacking each other. This is a recipe for disaster!" Liu Yi, the minister of household affairs, said angrily.

Xin Can also joined in, "In the past, Cao Shuang attacked Hanzhong, and a hundred thousand troops were killed in the middle of the battle. He lost all face and Cao Wei was shaken. Now... the drought in Guanzhong has disappeared, and the governor Wang is determined to go his own way. This trend must not rise. This case Never open it.”

Not only did Cao Shuang fail in his expedition to Shu, his father Cao Zhen also failed.

However, the courtiers all attacked Wang Meng and ignored Murong Chui.

Li Yue glanced at everyone in the hall. Chang Wei said nothing and closed his eyes to rest, while Cui Hong was a little absent-minded.

Strictly speaking, there was not much problem with Wang Meng sending troops. He was the commander-in-chief of all the military affairs in Guanzhong, and he also had the power to make decisions on the fly. However, his style of doing things without saying a word made the court really uncomfortable.

Attacking Hanzhong is no small matter. Xue Qiang led 7,000 elite troops and 20,000 powerful troops in the vanguard, and Wei Shan's 10,000 Black Cloud Army in the rear...

If things go wrong, Liang Guo's strength in Guanzhong will suffer a heavy blow.

However, Li Yue believed in the vision of Wang Meng and Murong Chui. Skilled men are bold, and the opportunity to fight is fleeting. If he dares to send troops at this time, he must be 100% sure.

If Hanzhong and Longyou could be captured, it would save the imperial court more than half of its energy, and it would also deter Huan Wen.

Just like Li Jing in history, he sent troops to Mobei. At this time, the Tang court had sent Honglu Qing Tang Jian and General An Xiuren to appease Jie Li. Li Jing believed that this was a good opportunity and the Turks would relax their guard, so he resolutely sent troops and finally The Turks were defeated.

The establishment of governors since the Wei and Jin Dynasties actually gave border generals the power to make emergency decisions.

Besides, Wang Meng has even taken off his pants. Do we need to issue an edict asking him to withdraw his troops?

Of course, this kind of thing can only be tolerated and never encouraged. Liu Yi and Xin Can were right. Wang Meng and Murong Chui can do this, but others may not have this ability.

"The troops have been sent out and cannot be taken back. We will wait and see the consequences." Li Yue directly set the tone.

The imperial court cannot hold back the front line.

After the fight is over, let's settle the accounts together. If we win, everything is easy to talk about. If we lose, it's hard to talk about it.

Everyone in the court looked at each other, but it seemed that this was all they could do.

"Hmph, regardless of victory or defeat, Wang Meng cannot escape the blame!" Xin Can came to interfere in this matter despite his age.

Li Yue glanced at Cui Hong, and moving the capital to Luoyang brought another unexpected effect. The Central Plains gentry began to have a tendency to unite. The Zheng family in Xingyang, the Chen family in Chenjun, the Xin family in Yingchuan, and the Han family began to fight against Hebei. Cui, Lu, Liu, Gao, Shen and other noble families.

But now it's just a sign.
