Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 709 Fear of the enemy

Li Yue had no mercy. He had seen the blood and tears of countless Chinese people in Black Cloud Mountain.

The Hu people could harm the people of the Central Plains, why couldn't Li Yue harm them?

Hatred can only be solved with blood and knives, and blind kindness can only dig its own grave.

Fu Jian in history is a painful lesson. Yi Di, whom he regarded as an innocent son, finally pounced on Di Qin and bit into Di Qin's flesh and blood. Even Fu Jian died tragically under Yi Di's sword.

And it’s not like Daliang didn’t give them a way to live. Life and death are their own choices.

There is Wang Meng in the east and Li Jian in Luoyang. Li Yue concentrates on dealing with Tuoba Shi Yijian.

Shengle City was decorated. In order to welcome him, colorful cloths were hung on the dead trees, and the road at the north gate was repaired.

There are many flags in the city, the drums are beating continuously during the day, and the bonfires are constantly going on at night. I am afraid that Tuoba Shiyijian will not know that the Emperor of Liang is coming in person.

If it were any other grassland hero, they would have pounced on him long ago when they saw that the Emperor of the Central Plains came with only 20,000 troops.

Tuoba Shi Yijian was as cowardly as a dog. He didn't dare to go south and refused to leave. He just wandered north of Yinshan Mountain. Today he sent hundreds of riders to check out the wind, and tomorrow he sent thousands of riders to shout outside the city. , as soon as Liang Jun's scouts came out, these people turned around and ran away.

This made Li Yue depressed.

Even the gate of Shengle City was opened, Tuoba Shiyijian was afraid to come, and the scouts went to send messages to no avail.

"My trip here is in vain."

Looking north, you can see wild grass stretching all over the sky, and you can vaguely see the vast mountains winding like giant dragons on the horizon.

"Tuoba Shi Yijian is as timid as a mouse. I'm afraid this alliance will be difficult to achieve." Zheng Lin cupped his hands and said.

In the past few years, Xingyang Zheng Shi was the only one with some talents, and he ranked first in the imperial examination last year.

The powerful nobles do have some advantages in cultivating talents.

The imperial examination still has a long way to go, but now in Daliang, martial arts is on the rise. Children of common people from poor families are proud to join the army. After graduating from the army, their achievements are not inferior to those of the imperial examination.

"It seems that I think highly of him. Let's wait a few more days."

Since he wanted to show his weakness to the enemy, Li Yue had to make a good show to prove to the grassland tribes that Daliang was still sincere, which could be regarded as cooperating with Yang Lue.

Yang Lue is indeed the most outstanding craftsman in Daliang. He has rich experience. He has only been in the grassland for more than a month. As the Hongnong Yang family, after spreading eleven carts of gold and silver jewelry, he "made a good relationship" with the Xianbei tycoon. Changsun got on the line and became a guest.

Zheng Lin suggested: "I'd better go and urge it once."

"Yes." Li Yue nodded in agreement, hoping very much that Tuoba Shi Yijian would bite him like a mad dog.

But this is destined to be a luxury.

Tuoba Shi Yijian has been obscene for so many years and has already formed a habit.

Determined not to go south, and no longer to disturb Liang Tu, he floated north of Yinshan Mountain, sending out a large number of ranger scouts, turning the surroundings of Yunzhong upside down, for fear of an ambush.

After waiting in Shengle City for nearly a month, there was still no movement from Tuoba Shi Yijian. Seeing that the weather was getting colder, Li Yue was ready to go back home and could not stay here forever.

Although the alliance was not achieved, the goal was basically achieved, and Tuoba Shi Yijian's cowardice was revealed to the world...

It's so cold in Yunzhong County, but it will only be colder north of Yinshan Mountain.

The cold wind howls, blowing on people's faces like knives, carving out wrinkles that make them look old at a young age.

However, the Xianbei people have long been accustomed to it, and they still herd horses and herd sheep.

"Oh, Li Yue has already arrived in the clouds. This opportunity is rare. I really..." Tuoba Shiyijian's eyes rolled, his heart itching unbearably.

No one in the tent was moved, they all knew that he was just talking.

With 20,000 Heiyun elites, plus more than 10,000 surrounding troops, there is still a fortified city to defend. This battle is basically impossible to fight. If 100,000 people attack the city without any siege equipment, it will only lead to death. Liang Jun stayed on guard for ten days and a half, and reinforcements from all walks of life in China arrived.

"Yesterday Thief Liang sent someone to urge me. You guys should tell me, will I go?" Tuoba Shi Yijian glanced at everyone.

The Emperor of Liang came to Yunzhong in person, and Tuoba Shiyijian's idea of ​​​​plundering Hetao and Liangzhou was difficult to implement.

"Of course we can't go. The Liang thieves have always been cunning. Once my father shows up, he will definitely ambush him." Tuoba Shijun said in a rough voice.

Yanfeng stroked his long beard and said, "I think we should go."

Everyone in the tent looked over.

"Sir, a few days ago, you said you should hang out Li Thief more, why did you change your mind today?" Tuoba Shi Yijian was puzzled.

"The rebellion in Youzhou was still undecided some time ago, so we need to wait and see the situation. Now that the rebellion has been put down, there is no point in delaying it."

"It's a pity, it's a pity. That guy Zhai Bin took our swords and armor and boasted that he would conquer Yecheng and turn Hebei upside down. He didn't even survive a month and his head was missing." Bashi Yijian said disdainfully.

The Youzhou rebellion undoubtedly gave the monarchs and ministers of Dai a glimmer of hope.

It turns out that the Liang Kingdom will also be unstable and have internal troubles.

Yan Feng said: "Zhai Bin is not worth mentioning in the first place, and Ding Ling is not the enemy of the Liang people. If they lose, they will lose. Now that Youzhou is rebelling, and the Liang Lord is so active in coming to join the alliance, it shows that the country is not stable." , in urgent need of self-cultivation, and to suppress the barbarians, His Highness can take the opportunity to ask for money, food and land, and there is at least a 50% chance of success."

"Going to join the alliance in the clouds?" Tuoba Shiyi looked hesitant on his face.

"Whether the alliance will be successful or not is another matter, but we must go. The Lord of Liang is coming from afar. If His Highness does not go, he will be afraid of the enemy and will break his promise. All the tribes in the grassland are waiting and watching." Yanfeng reminded.

"Bold!" Seeing Yanfeng say this to Tuoba Shi Yijian, Tuoba Shijun was very dissatisfied.

"Don't be rude, sir, what you said makes sense." Tuoba Shi Yijian waved his hand.

He was asked to see Li Yue, but he really didn't want to take the risk.

The experience of being a hostage in Jie Zhao in his early years has always been his nightmare. He rolled his eyes a few times and looked at his eldest son. He suddenly had a plan in his mind, "The Liang thief is treacherous and cunning. I can't go there, but the eldest son can." Go on my behalf."

Tuoba Shijun was stunned and didn't understand why it was pushed to him, "This..."

"Is it possible that my son doesn't want to?" Tuoba Shi Yijian said with a half-smile.

Others gave him gloating looks.

Tuoba Shijun had no choice but to bite the bullet and agreed, "My son and I are willing to share the worries of our father. There are 20,000 thieves in Liang. My father only needs to share my 30,000 horses with my son."

Like father, like son.

Tuoba Shi Yijian was afraid of being beaten by the Black Cloud Army, and Tuoba Shijun was also afraid.

Seeing that his younger brothers have grown up and are more popular and talented than him, if they are detained by Liang Guo, his position as king will also be far away from him.

When inheriting Murong Yuwen's Duan clan, which family didn't fight so hard that they disowned all their relatives?

Yanfeng lowered his head and said nothing.

"My son has always been brave, why do we need thirty thousand troops? With your three hundred warriors, go to Shengle to find out." Tuoba Shi Yijian laughed.

Giving the prince an army of 30,000 men was like putting his head directly on the edge of the knife. He would not be so stupid.

"Father..." Tuoba Shijun swallowed.

"Huh?" Tuoba Shi Yijian drawled.

"My son, take your orders!"
