Chapter 1,375 The common people are righteous and bear separation
Murong Lan gritted his teeth: "There are more than 300,000 people in Yecheng and more than 100,000 families of soldiers. Once we attack by force, there will be many casualties. It is not just us Murong who you have grudges against, but The entire Xianbei tribe, for the sake of these creatures, and for the sake of your future support in Hebei, I must make this trip. Don’t worry, Murong Bao is cowardly and incompetent, and little Duan lacks his own opinion, they will definitely listen to me!"
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "The reason why I kept this matter from you from the beginning is because I was afraid that you would have a difficult choice. You only want to save the people of the Murong tribe, but they may not accept your favor. Murong Chui, I I finally persuaded Zhai Zhao's Ding Ling people to send troops to stop them. The price was to give them all the silk and silk stored in Yecheng. Therefore, I couldn't let Murong Bao leave with these things, so I attacked him and forced him to flee. It’s the best solution.”
Murong Lan frowned: "Then can you tell me now, where does your army come from? Liu Jingxuan leads the main force. Who are they?"
Liu Yu said seriously: "Ah Shou leads the Beifu Army newly formed by his father. Unlike us old Beifu Army, they are mostly stragglers and rangers who have been wandering between Huaisi and Huaisi in the past few years. I also observed along the way. After meeting these people, their skills are very good, no worse than ours back then."
Murong Lan sighed: "You also said that these are bandits, they are wanderers and lack discipline. We all know that Liu Laozhi ran the army with plunder and robbery as a means of stimulation. He treated you Jingkou people like this back then. So, now that you have recruited these bandits, you will be even more reckless. Yecheng is the only prosperous city that has survived the war in the north for many years. I saw that when your subordinates ran towards Yecheng just now, their eyes were shining. They can Without intelligence as noble as yours, what they will do after breaking the city is rob, rob, rob."
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "I will strictly control military discipline and prevent them from messing around."
Murong Lan shook his head: "Human nature is like this, and it cannot be restrained by your military discipline. Besides, after the city is broken, everything will be destroyed. They just rob, kill, rape and plunder with open fire. It can also be said to crush the enemy's resistance. You said you want to pacify it." Hebei aims to restore peace to the world and provide justice to the people, but if you use these tigers and wolves to attack the city, can you really achieve what you want?"
Liu Yu said nothing, lowered his head and began to think deeply. Indeed, this was what he had been worried about.
Murong Lan said seriously: "In addition to these New Taipei soldiers, there are also those Ding Ling bandits. These people are greedy. Once Yecheng is lost, my eldest brother will definitely retreat to Northern Hebei and wait for an opportunity. And these Ding Ling people think they have made a contribution, so they will definitely I'll go back to Yecheng. It's no use if you empty the treasury and give it to them. They will definitely come into the city to loot and massacre. In the end, you drove away my eldest brother, but you let the beasts like Ding Ling wreak havoc in Hebei, fearing the suffering of the people. , will be deeper than when my eldest brother was in power."
Liu Yu gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "But will it make any difference if I let you go back? Are you saying that I shouldn't come to Hebei? It's my act of regaining lost land that will make the people of Hebei suffer again." Military disaster? My dear, I can promise you anything else, but for this operation, I will never give in. If you give up this God-given opportunity because you care about some casualties and are afraid of some consequences, that will be a disservice to the people for generations to come. So irresponsible!"
Murong Lan sighed: "So, I have to make this trip. Don't let your army enter the city. I will let my men take charge of Yecheng and change it to the flag of Jin. I was also a member of the Beifu army.
You can let the old brothers who came from Jingkou enter the city to maintain law and order, but don't let Liu Jingxuan's men enter the city, let alone Ding Ling. In this way, the Xianbei people in the city can be safe, and so can Murong Bao and the others.
Leave safely. My brother, if the soldiers know that their family members have not been harmed, they will naturally lose their will to fight. At that time, you only need to be willing to release the families of these people and let them choose to stay or stay, either to stay in the Jin Dynasty and become common people, or
If I follow my eldest brother out of the border and return to Liaodong, I think this war will not be fought."
Liu Yu took Murong Lan's hand: "No, this is too dangerous. They were willing to listen to you before because you were dealing with me from the perspective of Yan State, but now that you are gone, you have become my lobbyist.
, in their eyes, he is an enemy. Murong Bao may be cowardly, afraid of death, and will run away, but the other Murong clan members and generals in the city will not be so easily persuaded, and I cannot let you take this risk."
Murong Lan resolutely got rid of Liu Yu's big hand and said in a deep voice: "Brother Lang, this is what I must do, not only for you, but also for my people, and for the people of Hebei to not suffer from the war. This
Come on, I have to go. You wait for my good news outside the city. If the city has not been replaced with the banner of the Jin Dynasty by night, you can attack the city. Don't worry about me."
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "Aiqin, don't you think about Brother Xing? If you don't come back, how can I tell my daughter where her mother has gone?"
Murong Lan's delicate body trembled slightly, and she murmured: "Yes, Brother Xing, if I see her now, she should be more than two years old. I am really incompetent as a mother. My daughter has grown up, but she is not cruel."
Having raised her, I, I don’t deserve such a daughter.”
Liu Yu said seriously: "So, our daughter cannot live without her mother. Everything I have done is not only to build a reputation for eternity, but also to protect the people of Hebei from the devastation of war. I also hope that from now on we can forever control the border, and my family
Reunite, no longer be threatened and controlled by those Machiavellian people, love our relatives, stay, be with our family forever, and don’t leave.”
Murong Lan's eyes sparkled with tears and she murmured: "Brother Lang, there are thousands of Xianbei families in the city, and there are countless daughters and wives who are looking forward to being reunited with their fathers and husbands. If I
If they don't go, they will probably be separated from their wives and their families. If I am here with you today and don't protect them, then I will never feel at ease in this life. Tell Xingdi that my mother is sorry for her, but my mother will always love her.
, I don’t regret this trip!”
As she said this, she turned around and ran away, her body rising and falling a few times, and she disappeared into the grass on the roadside. She was so determined and without any nostalgia.
Liu Yu closed his eyes in pain. When the lingering fragrance of the beauty dissipated in the air, there was a burst of applause in the grass on one side. Lu Xun walked out slowly with a smile on his face. Behind him, there were dense crowds of people in blue clothes.
Disciple, he applauded and said with a smile: "What a touching love. With a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for!"
