Director Wang stayed at Yu Liang's house to have dinner, and the two of them drank each other's cups, and the feud was gone. Liu Kun was also extremely angry after receiving Murong Xin's reward. He understood that the reason why Ge Hong, Xun Song and others They are so arrogant because they are not optimistic about themselves, thinking that as soon as the Qin army arrives, their Chu State will fall apart!

‘Let me open your eyes with a big victory!’ Liu Kun urgently needs a victory to prove himself and give everyone who despises him a loud slap in the face!

Liu Kun did have this confidence, because he had 150,000 Xianbei elite cavalry, which was a powerful force that no one could ignore. He always believed that Shi Le had hundreds of thousands of elite cavalry, but he died and his country was destroyed. They were ignorant of the art of war and made fundamental strategic mistakes in arranging troops and formations!

In his expectation, Shi Le should not even defend the three passes of Heluo and Shangdang, but directly gathered more than 400,000 troops in Xiangguo to fight the Qin army. Even if he lost, Yunfeng's vitality would be severely damaged. We will covet Jiangdong again within this year!

However, this is an extremely risky strategy. It gives up all natural dangers and is a bit desperate. It is difficult for Shi Le to adopt such a radical method, so Liu Kun retreats to the next best thing and instructs Zhang Bin to persuade Shi Le to give up the merger with the state and guard the three passes of Shangdang. If either Sanguan or Heluo is lost, then everyone will return to the army and directly fight to the death in Xiangguo City.[

It is a pity that Shi Le misunderstood Xu Guang's suggestion. Such a long defense line could not move at the same pace, and could not fall in one place. He immediately retreated to other places, giving the Qin army every opportunity to break through.

Liu Kun didn't know how many times he cursed Shi Le in his heart, but when a similar situation fell on him, Liu Kun couldn't make up his mind.

In fact, he was facing a dilemma. Murong Xin once proposed to mobilize Su Jun's troops to station in Huainan and control Shouchun's army to defend Huai River. Although he agreed at the time, after Murong Xin left. After careful consideration, he felt more and more It's not feasible. What's the difference between this and Shi Le's division of troops? It will only defeat the Qin army layer by layer, but it will waste strength in vain.

Liu Kun had two plans in mind. One was to cross the river with cavalry and use the open terrain in the north of the Yangtze River to fight the Qin army in a decisive battle. However, this would require giving up the natural dangers of the river. You know, in the Wujun Water Village, he had prepared thousands of Where's the fire ship!

The second is to order all the troops stationed in the north of the Yangtze River to return to the south of the Yangtze River, concentrate all their strength, and fight the Qin army under the city of Jiankang. Even if Tao Kan and Wu Jun are not included, they can still gather 250,000 troops. However, although the more than a thousand fire-like troops It can come in handy, but it means giving up the natural barrier between Jianghuai and Jiankang. Jiankang will directly face the threat of the Qin army!

What is even more passive is that the Qin Army has the initiative to attack. If it never attacks, only maintains a high-pressure posture, or bluffs from time to time, no one can stand it after a few years. Therefore, Liu Kun gave the order to Su Jun. Press and press.

Before Murong Xuan's reward ruined his mood, Liu Kun had been considering which step to take from noon to evening. A decisive battle in the north or south of the Yangtze River had its own advantages and disadvantages. Since it was a matter of life and death, he did not dare to be hasty in the slightest.

Liu Kun felt that he should refer to Murong Xuan's opinion, so he turned around and asked: "Yi Luogui, I have thought about it and it is not feasible to guard the Huaihe River. Now we should concentrate our troops to complete the battle with the Qin State." Next, Liu Kun His dilemma was briefly discussed.

Murong Xuan did not answer immediately, but remained silent, and Liu Kun did not rush him. He knew that the more important the decision, the more difficult it is to make, and must be carefully considered.

I don’t know how much time passed, but the sun had already set in the Western Mountains. Murong Xin suddenly relaxed his eyebrows and raised his hands: “I didn’t think carefully before, but thanks to Your Majesty’s discernment, I didn’t make a big mistake. I feel extremely ashamed. , please punish me, Your Majesty!"

Liu Kun waved his hand impatiently: "Who can consider everything? I don't blame you. Tell me, where should we fight the Qin army?"

Murong Xin paused for a while and then said: "Since your Majesty is besieging Xunsong's residence and is about to send troops to attack Jingkou, no matter what the reason, the King of Qin will definitely ignore it. Therefore, he cannot rein in the horse in the north of the river, and will definitely cross the river quickly, so Once it comes, the more than a thousand ships in the sea of ​​fire will be effective. If they can be used well, they will be able to defeat the Qin army on the river. At the worst, they will also cause heavy losses to them.

If the King of Qin forced the crossing regardless of casualties, then the decisive battle would be better at Jiankang City. The terrain near Jiankang is relatively open and the cavalry can be fully utilized. Therefore, I thought that Huainan should be abandoned and ordered Su Jun and Shouchun troops to quickly attack Crossing the river, however, we cannot retreat from Xiapi and Guangling. There are not many troops in these two places, but we can still contain Haimen and make Wang Xizhi dare not move lightly!"

"Okay!" As soon as these words came out, Liu Kun immediately made a decision, hurriedly wrote a letter at his desk, and sent his entourage to Liyang overnight, and also sent Guangling and Xiapi to be on strict guard.

After the entourage left, Murong Xin said again: "Your Majesty, I looked at Xun Song, Huan Yi and Bian Yi today, and they all looked fearful. I was thinking, what does he rely on? Could it be that he just relies on That's just a thousand personal guards?

Although the King of Qin's personal guards are well-trained, how long can a thousand people survive being besieged by a large army? This is obviously a joke. After thinking about it, I figured it out. Your Majesty, please don't forget that Huan Wen, the governor of Haimen Navy, is the son of Huan Yi. , may lead the army to attack Stone City, and the Qin army is really good at firepower. I am afraid that Stone City will be in trouble. Therefore, your Majesty, will you send the Wujun fireship to fight first? Give him a show of strength first?"

"This" Liu Kun couldn't help but frown when he thought about the possibility. He quickly shook his head firmly: "No, for this fire ship, I have tried every means to prevent the secrets from being leaked. It is just to give King Qin a chance." Surprise, if it is exposed in advance, the King of Qin must be prepared, huh! What if Huan Wen attacks? Could it be that the Haimen navy can still huddle on the boat? He will always climb to the top of the city, and the trebuchet placed on the top of the mountain is not a vegetarian Yes, he is condescending, his range is doubled, and he is also told to take advantage of me!"

Murong Xin thought about it, he was indeed worrying in vain, he couldn't help but blush and nodded in praise.

Liu Kun waved his hand and told him not to mind. So, just as Murong Xin was about to leave, Liu Kun suddenly asked: "Is there any news about Yuan Zhen?" [

"Huh?" Murong Xin was startled, and then he bowed deeply: "I laid a dragnet in Liaodong earlier, but nothing was found. I suspect that the evil son has not returned to Liaodong. However, the world is so big that he did not take the initiative to show up. It's like finding a needle in a haystack, please give me more time."

"Hey~~" Liu Kun sighed and said: "Yuan Zhenbi learned your identity from Zu Yue. If you don't get rid of me, it will be a thorn in my heart. By the way, I heard that decades ago, Murong Tuyuhun He went to Yinshan Mountain because of his fighting spirit, do you think Yuan Zhen will surrender?"

Liu Kun didn't know much about the situation of the Han Murong tribe. He couldn't be blamed for this. The original Han Murong tribe was just a small tribe of two thousand households. They went to the Yinshan Mountains thousands of miles away. Whether they could survive was a question. They had long since faded out.

Even Yunfeng only knew that there were few branches of Murong's tribe. If Murong hadn't taken the initiative to join him, he wouldn't have known who Murong Tuyan was.

"This" Murong said uncertainly: "I don't know much about Murong Tuyuhun's current situation. Please forgive me. I'm only worried that the evil son will defect to the King of Qin, which will be troublesome. By the way, some time ago, Chang'an visited the horse to report that there was someone

A tribal army of about 20,000 people defected to the King of Qin, but they couldn't find a way out. I don't know if it has anything to do with that evil son. In the spirit of preferring to believe it or not, your Majesty had better be careful."

Liu Kun's face was instantly covered with a layer of frost. Murong's identity was so fundamental that he couldn't help snorting: "Let's think about the worst, assuming that Yuan Zhen has defected to King Qin, but as of now, your identity has not

spread, this shows that firstly, there is no evidence, and the spread is also

Yes, secondly, it is very likely that the King of Qin suddenly revealed his intention to win without fighting when the two armies were fighting. If he wanted to reveal your identity, he could only capture you alive in front of the battle. In this case, how could I do this?

What does he want? Then you stay with me and see how he succeeds!"

Murong felt at ease and quickly saluted: "If something unexpected happens, I would rather commit suicide and destroy the body than let it fall into the hands of King Qin. Please rest assured, Your Majesty!"

"Yes!" Liu Kun nodded with satisfaction and greeted: "Okay, let's be careful when the day comes. Come on, it's rare for you and I to get together today, so you might as well stay and have a drink with me."

He stood up and called out: "Come here, bring some food and wine!"

"Yes!" A sound of footsteps faded away.

Just as Murong was about to thank him, a follower came to the door and saluted: "Your Majesty, there is someone outside the palace who claims to be an envoy of the Japanese Kingdom. What is the right name? His name is Mu Tu Su You, and he says he has an urgent matter to meet with Your Majesty!"

"Huh?" Liu Kun and Murong couldn't help but look at each other, doubts flashed in their eyes. They had also heard about the Japanese country, which was located on a remote island offshore, and they had never taken it to heart. He came to see him.

Why? What's more, an audience is a solemn and solemn ceremony. It is only etiquette to meet in the main hall of China and North Korea in the early morning after all preparations have been made. Do you understand the rules when you meet privately in the evening?

There was a trace of displeasure on Liu Kun's face, but Murong suggested: "Your Majesty, the foreign barbarians don't know etiquette, so there is no need to argue with them. It is always a good thing to have foreign envoys to see Tianyan. We might as well announce it and see how it goes.

?”

"Inform him to come in!" Liu Kun's expression softened slightly and he waved his hand outward.

The entourage took the order and left. Liu Kun and Murong also returned to their seats and sat upright. After all, although Liu Kun's situation was not good, he inherited the Jin Dynasty. He believed that he was Zhengshuo, so he naturally had to show the magnanimity that Zhengshuo should have.

.

"The envoy of the Japanese Kingdom, Muchusu, has come to meet you!" As the male duck's voice rang out, three figures appeared at the door of the palace.

Liu Kun and Murong looked around. The three of them were dressed in tatters and filthy. They did not have the magnanimity that an envoy should have. They were also short in stature. The leader was about the shoulders of an ordinary person, a full head shorter, and the two following were only as high as his chest.

, giving people a feeling that is both vulgar and funny.

Liu Kun and Murong exchanged glances again. Their eyes were full of contempt. How could there be such a short person in the world? What could such a short person do? It seems that Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty was right in giving him the name "Japanese".

!

Unable to help themselves, everyone, including the yellow gates inside and outside the palace and the entourage, felt a sense of self-indulgence in their hearts! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian.com to vote and vote monthly.
