"After that, there will be no forest to burn. \ The eastern shore of the mound is surrounded by a forest area of about four or five miles, followed by irregular mountainous areas.
The so-called mountains are actually not connected, they are distributed into a large area, and the mountains are not steep, and many of them are just small hills.
In that piece of mountainous area, there are places that can accommodate large armies for fighting, and of course they can also provide enough open land to build camps, and Murong Yanjun's military camp is to establish it, using the military camp and the surrounding mountains to form a linkage, and according to the distribution of troops, it has hooked up a number of corners.
Murong Ke set fire to the forest in order to delay the footsteps of the Han army, and the reason why he did this was also because he had a mentality of "Lao Tzu has to abandon this territory, it doesn't matter how to toss it", and it was the Han side that should worry about the environment.
Qiu Shui's front placed 110,000 Murong Yan troops, and after the two sides entered the combat state, Murong Yan's army lost more than 2,000 people, and the Han army should have lost four or five hundred people.
The two armies combined were nearly 200,000, and it took nearly a month for no more than 3,000 people to suffer.
Let's just say that on the west bank of Qiushui, the forest area cut down by the Han army is at least ten miles in radius, and the timber is only a few materials used to build the camp, and most of it is stored.
The burned forest area on the east bank of Qiushui is very extensive, and at a cursory glance, at least thirteen or fourteen miles of forest area has been reduced to ashes, and the pitch-black scorched earth is shocking.
"We're really not used to mountain warfare."
Murong Ke would say that the two armies had already begun to engage in offensive and defensive battles: "Two mountains have been conquered in just one day, and the passage will soon be broken through." ” Liu Xiang could only smile bitterly, they arranged to be at the forefront of the front line are non-Xianbei people, there are the original Jin people, many of them are prisoners of war of various nationalities from the northeast, those people are not resolute in their will to fight, and some soldiers whose families are hostages in the rear want to play with their lives but can't play with the Han army.
The so-called two mountains that have been conquered, one is about 200 meters above sea level, and the other is about 300 meters above sea level.
The terrain of the two mountains is very ordinary, only with a condescending advantage, Murong Ke did not arrange a sharp weapon such as a bed crossbow for those troops who were destined to be consumed, and the Han army directly hit the top of the mountain with two charges in one day.
Of course, it was Murong Xianbei's general who commanded the defense of the two hills, so there was Murong Ke's statement that he didn't understand mountain warfare, and he asked Liu Xiang cautiously: "There are people among Fuyu and Goguryeo who are familiar with mountain warfare, but my duke doesn't believe in their loyalty." ” By the way, Murong Ke is now the Heng Duke of Murong Yan Kingdom, and he is the title of the Duke.
The title of Duke Heng was given in return by Murong Ke after Murong Jun succeeded to the throne, not for the sake of Murong Ke's brilliant military exploits, which was somewhat ironic.
Murong Xianbei defeated many forces in the process of rising, Yuwen Xianbei was beaten and split on its own, Duan's Xianbei looked like there was no shadow, and the rest of the Northeast countries were only left with Goguryeo to survive, not only to get wealth and many slaves in the process, but also to capture the generals of the hostile forces.
The Northeast is a very large place, and Fuyu, Quwo, Shen, Lou and so on are also ethnic groups that have been inherited for a long time, among which Fuyu, Quwo and Shen have established their own countries.
"Fuyu and Quwo themselves are mountainous countries" Liu Xiang hesitated for a moment before saying: "Or you can use your family as hostages to coerce them to contribute to Dayan" Murong Ke raised his eyebrows, he had thought of this a long time ago, but he still felt that it was inappropriate.
The problem is that Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla in the peninsula region have successively taken refuge in the Han State, so that the influence of the Han State has radiated out, and it also has a great reputation among the ethnic groups in the Northeast.
The countries and forces in the Northeast have been defeated by the Murong Yan State one after another, if the Murong Yan Kingdom has remained strong, it will be fine, and the countries and forces in the Northeast will not be able to borrow external forces if they have the intention to resist, but now it is not the Han State that is invading, and the Han State also has a strong influence in the Northeast "Bengong" Murong Ke took a deep breath, spit it out, and then said: "What I am more worried about is the wet water, as well as the northern line. ” Speaking of which, because it takes time for the news to be transmitted, the news of Tuoba Shi Yijian's rebellion has not yet reached Murong Ke's side, and the news that the Han army has approached two hundred miles to Longcheng has not been transmitted.
Murong Ke has reason to worry about the wet water, Murong Xianbei has wanted to make the wet water a water system that cannot be walked with more than once, what iron cable connects the river, what shipwreck makes artificial reefs, but it is more difficult to do than they imagined.
No kidding, it is really very difficult to block the river with today's technology, and it is not only resources and labor that need to be taken into account, but also some technologies that can only achieve half the result without mastering.
Murong Yan has mastered the smelting technology, and the number of domestic craftsmen is not small, but their craftsmen are also responsible for the ordnance of the whole country.
Let's talk about Murong Yanguo's ship construction, they have been in a state of invasion and destruction by the Han army from the beginning of wanting to build a shipbuilding base, even if they build a ship, it always takes a period of time to build a good ship, and few ships can survive to complete the sea trial, most of them attract Han ships as soon as they leave the dock, and the result is that it took so many years of hard work to build a sailor with a scale of more than 40 large and small warships.
Under the premise that manpower is beyond the reach, Murong Yanguo knows that the water system connecting the Bohai Sea is a big threat, and it is difficult for manpower to cut off the waterway, so in the end, he only started to build a dam, and the dam project is not smooth sailing.
"Northern Front" Liu Xiang said in confusion: "The Tuoba clan was forced to remove the country by the King of Han, and the original king must hate the King of Han to the bone."
In the eyes of the vast majority of people, Tuoba Daiguo was forced by the Han State to abandon its territory and flee away, and Tuoba Shi Yijian defected to Murong Yan with the remnants, so naturally Tuoba Xianbei and Murong Yanguo should stand on a common position against Han.
With a common enemy, plus Tuoba Xianbei and Murong Xianbei together are not the opponents of the Han State, first the Tuoba clan retreated to the Xianbei grassland, and then the Murong clan also planned to move the whole country, and they have already agreed to deal with Rouran and Donggaoche together, how can they be considered close allies "The Han Kingdom is too strong" Murong Ke was full of jealousy, and said solemnly: "Not only is the Han Kingdom sweeping through various countries one after another, but the strength that this Duke says refers to the endless ambition of Liu Yan, the king of Han, for his territory. ” As Liu Xiang, who studied Confucianism since he was a child and then became a great Confucian, his attitude towards Liu Yan was very complicated, how many times he admired Liu Yan that he could sweep away foreign races and restore the dominance of the Han family, but he did not approve of Liu Yan's attitude towards all ethnic groups, especially the rejection of Liu Yan's reckless military force.
In Liu Xiang's view, the restoration of the Han family's dominance is of course a gratifying thing, not only that the status of the Han family's Miao descendants is no longer inferior to beasts, but the reality is that they have received more respect from their masters.
Confucianism is divided into factions, including factions that have no borders and no nationality.
This faction is divided into camps by culture, and the clear point is "those who are Yidi and Huaxia are Huaxia; Those who are in China and Yi Di are Yi Di Zhi", not looking at the bloodline, but only looking at the identity of the culture.
It cannot be said that "those who are Yidi and Huaxia are Huaxia; The statement of "Yidi" is not correct because this faction of Confucianism has not taken the right position at all, and it basically doesn't matter whether it is actively integrated or passively integrated, usually most of the Confucian students who have no psychological burden after the alien race gains power and take refuge in the alien race.
Take Liu Xiang and others as an example, at the beginning, they may have been forced to serve Murong Xianbei because they were forced to serve Murong Xianbei, and after they were treated preferentially or well, they did not treat themselves and those oppressed colleagues as the same kind of people, and then there was a mentality that tended to want to change Murong Xianbei, whether it was subtle or anything, what they wanted was that Chinese culture would become the mainstream of Murong Yanguo, and Murong Yanguo would be changed into a country with Chinese culture as the mainstream from top to bottom.
Similar to the fact that there are a lot of scholars who want to change the culture and living habits of different races after taking refuge in a foreign race, and some of them are earth-shattering ghosts and gods, it is really difficult to judge their merits and demerits, the most successful is the self-sinicization of the ruling class of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and the most terrible thing is probably that "I Daqing" created "1 brainwashing, 1 god and 1 gong" after accepting culture, but instead created a slave group.
This period was the first time that the Hu people stepped into the Central Plains and became rulers, and the methods of rule were mainly violent and cruel.
Because the Hu people entered the Central Plains for the first time, those cultural people who took refuge in the foreign race are not like the younger generations can be heartless, how much they are twisted and twisted and have a psychological burden, and it is precisely in this way that another group has appeared, that is, after taking refuge in the foreign race, they try their best to make their masters become the rulers of the Central Plains, and use such results to prove their vision.
If it weren't for Liu Yan's birth, those cultural people who took refuge in other races would have succeeded successively, and they would have gained glory, wealth and fame by serving the aliens, creating a glorious example for the younger generations, so that it is no longer an absolutely shameful thing for cultural people to take refuge in aliens after the Wuhu Rebellion.
"Fight for at least two more months" Liu Xiang's psychological burden is quite big now, he belongs to the group of people who tried their best to instigate Murong Xianbei to go south, so he just did it to prove his vision, but now he obviously can't do it.
He tried his best to hide his disappointment and frustration, and said: "Two months is enough time for Dayan to withdraw the people who should be evacuated. ” Murong Yanguo's decision to move the whole country was seven months ago, and it was because they recognized the strong rise of the Han State and determined Liu Yan's determination to defeat them, and they discussed and argued again and again, whether they wanted to or not, they knew that it was difficult to resist the Han State, so they had the action of moving the whole country.
I have to say that Murong Xianbei's rise is not a fluke, in addition to being able and powerful, it is also because he can face himself squarely, and he can also make a decision when he has to make a decision, anyway, he will never drag his feet.
"If there are no accidents, it should be able to buy two months."
As soon as Murong Ke's words fell, someone outside yelled and begged to see him, his face changed, and he shouted: "Come in" The curtain was opened, and the person who came in was Ju Yun, he looked a little embarrassed, and his face couldn't stop panicking: "Henggong, the Han army landed in large numbers from Weishui, except for Lingzhi City, most of the way has been swept away. ” What was Murong Ke afraid of, he was afraid that the Han army would use the water to cut off his back road, not that he did not make a variety of arrangements, and when he heard that most of the arrangements except for the Lingzhi City were swept away, he felt angry at the same time as he didn't believe it.
Liu Xiang immediately asked: "How many Han troops are there?"
The person in charge of the Weishui Front was Ju Yun, who was a member of Murong Yanguo's army.
The official position of joining the army is not big or small, it depends on what he is responsible for, he was once in charge of Murong Hao's personal management of joining the army, and after Murong Hao died, he was also valued by Murong Jun and Murong Ke in succession.
"Suddenly there is a big move in Lishui" Murong Ke thought about more things, and it was no longer the key to how many Han troops appeared on the Weishui side, and said with seriousness: "Tuoba Shiyijian and the king's side, what news is there?"

In the final analysis, no matter how many Han troops launched an offensive from Lishui, as long as the Lingzhi City was still in the hands of Murong Yanguo, then Murong Ke would not have no way out.
He is not a general who only pays attention to the local area, and he also has an unimaginable concern for the overall situation.
Ju Yun's face had a very ugly expression, he personally led his troops to fight with the Han army that landed, and it was no surprise that he was defeated, and he was chased for dozens of miles, and the first thing he thought of was to come to report to Murong Ke, he really didn't care about other things, and even just guessed how many Han troops there were in Lishui, not how many Han troops came.
"The last general should die" Ju Yun immediately knelt down, his head knocked on the carpet: "Please Heng Gong give a group of men and horses to the last general, and the last general will definitely die to serve" Murong Ke didn't care about Ju Yun anymore, his face was cloudy and uncertain, he walked back and forth, he didn't know how long he had been going back and forth, and the first thing he stopped said was: "Ju Yun, from now on, you will be in charge of the war on the Western Front." ” Ju Yun looked up in disbelief when he heard this.
Liu Xiang on the side was first confused, and then there was a look of great fear, and he didn't know what he was talking to himself.
"My father left you 40,000 people, do your best, and hold on as long as you can.
If you can't hold out, you can surrender to the Han army after ten days.
Murong Ke said and looked at Liu Xiang: "Changshi, do you want to fight elsewhere with your father, or stay?"
Liu Xiang was still confused by Murong Ke's words, especially the sentence that Ju Yun could surrender after ten days, in his opinion, Murong Ke might not be able to hold on to surrender if he didn't say that, and Murong Ke took the initiative to say that Ju Yun would not be able to surrender.
"Villain" Liu Xiang's words were a little unfavorable, and he took a deep breath: "The villain naturally follows Henggong." ”:
