The last three kingdoms

Chapter 1230 Youzhou Returns to Han
Liu Hong was confused, and said: "The Xianbei people have besieged the city for a long time, and the internal and external communication has been cut off. No matter how big the matter is, they don't know anything about it. Brother Maoxian must know the reason why the Xianbei people retreated. Come and listen."

Zhang Hua's expression darkened a little, and he said, "The imperial court is dead."

Liu Hongwan seemed to have been hit by a sap, his eyes were straightened, and he was stunned. "The court is dead? How is it possible?"

Zhang Hua said bitterly: "In the twelfth lunar month of last year, the Shu army captured Luoyang. Your Majesty burned himself to death in the Luoyang Palace, and the Jin Kingdom fell."

It has been nearly a year since the twelfth lunar month of last year. Due to the siege of Xianbei and the cut off of internal and external news, Liu Hong has not received any news. Fortunately, he is still holding high the banner of the Jin State, holding on hard, and begging for help. I hope that one day, the army of the Jin Dynasty will be able to assist Youzhou in the north and drive out Xianbei.

But what Liu Hong never imagined was that the imperial court of the Jin Kingdom had already perished, and the emperor Sima Yan of the Jin Kingdom was no longer alive. After holding on to it for so long, what he had waited for was nothing but emptiness. .

"So, the withdrawal of Xianbei's troops this time is also because of the Kingdom of Shu?" Liu Hong stood silent for a long time before asking slowly.

Zhang Hua nodded, and said: "During the First Battle of Zhangshui, the Shu army wiped out 18 Murong Xianbei's army, and marched into Youzhou. The siege of the city will be resolved."

"Annihilate 18 people in Xianbei?" Liu Hong couldn't help but gasped. The strength of the Xianbei people, in the past few years, Liu Hong has been receiving it all the time, annihilating the 18 troops of Xianbei in one fell swoop. It was something Liu Hong dared not even dream about, but having said that, since the Shu army was able to destroy the mighty Jin State, it was no problem at all. Whether Ji County can be held is still a big question.

"How did Brother Mao know so clearly? Could it be that the Xianbei people's siege of Yuyang should be relaxed?"

Zhang Huadao: "Of course not. Before the Xianbei retreated, I, like Brother Ji, knew nothing about the Central Plains. However, when Murong Xianbei retreated from Shanggu, he passed Yuyang, and I saw it with my own eyes. Later, Liu Yin, the commander of the army of the Shu Kingdom, sent people to Yuyang, and I only knew the whole story."

"Liu Yin sent someone to Yuyang?" Liu Hong frowned slightly, and said, "Surely he sent someone to persuade him to surrender?"

Zhang Hua smiled wryly and said: "Liu Yin sent people here, of course that's what he meant. Today I came to Jixian specially to discuss this matter with Brother Ji. Where should we go?"

Liu Hong's guess was not wrong at all. The Kingdom of Shu entered the north and defeated the Xianbei people. The next step must be to surrender the three cities of Ji County and bring Youzhou into the territory of the Kingdom of Shu.

Liu Hong was very entangled in his heart. His family, the third generation was the minister of Wei and Jin. Since his grandfather Liu Fu served as the governor of Yangzhou, he lived in two thousand stones. Liu Hong's father Liu Jing even became the general of Zhenbei and guarded Youzhou.Now Liu Hongzi inherits his father's career and has become General Ningshuo, Governor of Youzhou's military forces, and Captain Hu Karasuma.Liu Hong felt that he hadn't really served the imperial court yet, but the news of Jin's demise came from here.

If the Jin court still existed, even if it was in a corner, Liu Hong would definitely be loyal to the court, but now the Jin court has been completely destroyed, and the last object of Liu Hong's allegiance no longer exists. When all hope is wiped out, Liu Hong only has all kinds of emptiness.

Revenge for the Jin court?To avenge Sima Shi?That was something Liu Hong had never thought about. With his own strength alone, he was unable to save even a small city of Ji County, not to mention that his opponent was Liu Yin who had wiped out Da Jin and Wu Hu. , is enough to make Liu Hong despair.

The news sent by Zhang Hua this time is obviously Liu Yin's ultimatum. With the strength of the Han army, the three cities of Jixian, Yuyang, and Changli may not be able to defend them. They will attack the city aggressively and deal with them with tough measures.

Judging from what Zhang Hua meant, it was obvious that he was already inclined towards Liu Yin.

"What does Brother Mao think, what should we do?"

Zhang Huadao: "The imperial court is destroyed, and the land of Youzhou has no masters. Surrendering to the barbarians is absolutely unavoidable, but surrendering to Shu is different. After all, they are both of the Huaxia family, and they are connected by blood. This time Liu Yin sent people here, and it is also full of sincerity. , praised our achievements in defending Youzhou and resisting Xianbei, and promised that if we are willing to surrender to the Han, Juelu will only be promoted but not surrendered, and we will stay in Youzhou forever."

Liu Hong let out a long sigh, and said, "Now that things have happened, do we have any other options?" So he sent people to discuss with General Anbei, General Yan Xun, who guarded Changli, and Yan Xun came to Ji County soon.

There is hardly any doubt, Yan Xun also fully agrees with Jiang Han, after all they have defended until now, only Liu Yin's soldiers and horses can be regarded as rescuing them from the clutches of the Xianbei people, this alone is enough to make Yan Xun Inquiry convinced.

However, the main reason is the powerful ability of the Han army that no one can compete with. Today's Youzhou is no longer the Youzhou when the Wei and Jin ruled. Their mistake. "

The three quickly reached an agreement, and immediately sent an envoy to hand over the begging document.

┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄

After Liu Yin sent people to Yuyang, Liu Yin did not move until he got an answer. Although the Han army had an absolute superior force, he never used force to force them to surrender.

Obviously, Liu Yin is showing respect to Zhang Hua, Liu Hong, and Yan Xun. Otherwise, Liu Yin's army would press the border and take the three cities of Youzhou, but it would be like picking something out of a pocket.

Most of the generals of the Han army didn't understand, thinking that Liu Yin had indulged them too much. They should be grateful for just rescuing them from the siege of the Xianbei people this time.Could it be that they still have the strength to resist?
Liu Yin didn't think so, a thousand troops are easy to get, but a general is hard to find. The three people in Youzhou are all extraordinary.Zhang Huanai was a generation of famous ministers, Liu Hong and Yan Xun were both famous generals, if they could recruit these three, it would be as effective as obtaining Youzhou.

However, Liu Yin hadn't waited for a few days, and soon Ji County sent envoys to hand over the begging document, and they unanimously decided to surrender to Ji Han.

Liu Yin showed a slight smile. As the saying goes, those who know current affairs are Junjie. It seems that all three of them can be called Junjie.
