Chapter 440: The emperor conquers the world in one battle
After walking out of Zhu Xu's tent, Murong Chui walked directly towards the Fei River without saying a word, while Murong Lan followed him step by step. The brightly lit camp gradually fell backwards, and the voices of people became louder and louder.
Gradually it became darker, and only the sound of running water, which was getting louder and louder, gradually became clearer.
Murong Chui stopped, stood by the river, and said calmly: "You should retreat first, and be on guard around you. No one is allowed within a hundred steps."
From the surrounding snow, more than a dozen killers dressed in white and masked with black cloth suddenly emerged. They all bowed to Murong Chui and then quickly disappeared into the thick darkness, leaving only the two brothers and sisters.
People are still standing by the river.
Murong Lan sighed softly: "This year's snow came extra early, but now it has stopped, and the river that should have been sealed has thawed at this time. Brother, don't you think this
Does it foreshadow anything?"
Murong Chui said coldly: "The river is thawing, and the Jin army can use the river to transport troops and food. It is beneficial to them. In a few days, this will become the venue for the decisive battle between Qin and Jin. Moreover, when the snow melts, it becomes water."
, Hu Bin can hold on for a few more days, Alan, do you know why I want you to go to the Jin army camp this time? "
Murong Lan gritted his teeth: "Brother would never let me go to Jin camp just because he wanted to create a chance for me to meet Liu Yu."
Murong Chui smiled slightly, turned around, and looked at Murong Lan's beautiful face: "Why not?"
Murong Lan's expression changed and she lowered her head: "I have no shame to see him now. Even if I see him, maybe he will kill me directly."
Murong Chui shook his head: "You think Liu Yu is too simple, and you think Xie Xuan is too simple. The more they are like this, the more they need our help."
Murong Lan frowned: "We betrayed others, why do they still need our help?"
Murong Chui said calmly: "That betrayal was within the acceptable range of both parties. Xie Xuan only asked Liu Yu to go to Shouchun, which proved that he had no intention of guarding this place from the beginning. The reinforcements sent later were Hu Bin, and
It is not Liu Laozhi who leads the troops, which shows that this rescue is just a show to the Emperor of Jin and the wealthy families in Jiankang City."
"After we helped the Qin army capture Shouchun, Xie Xuan did not send anyone to Qin to disclose his relationship with us, nor did he execute our subordinates there. This shows that Xie Xuan still left the possibility of continued contact with us.
,After all, we have common interests.”
Murong Lan gritted his teeth: "But no matter what, we broke the alliance first and almost killed Liu Yu. How can they trust us again now?"
Wrinkles appeared on Murong Chui's face, which was as sharp as a knife: "They can only trust us, because only Yao Chang and I can help them within the Qin State, and this time I urge Zhu Xu to send an envoy to the Jin camp to help them."
His clearest signal is that we are still allies on the same tank."
Murong Lan asked curiously: "Zhu Xu? Is it possible that he still has his heart set on Jin?"
Murong Chui sneered and said: "Although Zhu Xu seems to be grateful to the king every time, but the tea he drinks comes from Jin. How can he forget this kind of love for his hometown because of this kindness? If he
If he is really unwilling to serve Qin and stay at home, it proves that he is grateful to Fu Jian and they are not helping each other. But now that he is willing to take the initiative to send an envoy to the Jin camp, there is only one possibility. He will ask Jin
The country reveals everything it knows.”
Murong Lan breathed a long sigh of relief: "So the eldest brother deliberately revealed the Qin army's military situation to him? But if the Jin army really knew that Fu Jian was coming, I'm afraid they would be so scared that they would flee without a fight."
Murong Chui smiled slightly: "If Fu Jian really brought hundreds of thousands of follow-up troops, maybe Xie Xuan would really retreat, but now in order to grab credit, he abandoned the follow-up troops and only brought a few thousand light cavalry to confront the Jin army.
It's just the 300,000 Qin Army vanguards now. This is also the Jin Army's only chance. If it is delayed any longer, there will really be no possibility of victory."
Murong Lan sighed: "Even if there are only 300,000, the Beifu army plus Hu Bin's troops are only about 80,000. With one to four, do you really have a chance to win? This time, the eldest brother's troops are still on the way, so
I can’t help the Jin army.”
Murong Chui smiled and waved his hand: "Alan, you don't understand the art of war. In a battle of this level, there is no essential difference between 300,000 and 80,000. The battlefield is only a few dozen miles wide, and the two armies can only line up in two.
The difference in the front of about ten miles is only the thickness. Although the Qin army is large, it is a multi-ethnic army with different orders and difficult to understand the language. The more people there are, the harder it is to command."
"On the contrary, it is the Jin army. Out of the 80,000 people, the Beifu army accounts for more than 30,000. You know better than me how powerful this army is. If they act as the vanguard and attack desperately, the Qin army will not be able to stop it.
, absolutely unstoppable.”
Murong Lan's eyes flashed with excitement: "Can the Jin army really defeat the Qin army through offensive battles? But Shouchun City is still in the hands of the Qin army. It won't be so easy to win, right?"
Murong Chui said sternly: "This time it is not a city defense battle, nor is it a battle of a few thousand defenders against tens of thousands of siege troops. That will take a long time. This decisive battle will involve hundreds of thousands of people fighting in the wilderness.
One day can decide the victory or defeat, and determine the general trend of the entire world. If the Qin army is defeated, there will be no chance of retreating into the city. Zhu Xu has been a general for many years and is well versed in the art of war. He understands these principles, so once he sees
When I get to Xie Xuan, I will definitely ask him to take the initiative, throw away any worries, directly defeat the Qin army, and more importantly, defeat Fu Jian!"
Murong Lan nodded: "I've known this since my eldest brother designed Fu Jian to come to the front line in person. But now I still don't quite understand. It's enough to defeat Qin's hundreds of thousands of troops, so why do we have to defeat Fu Jian?
"
Murong Chui smiled slightly: "This is about the people's hearts and the morale of the army. If Fu Jian had not personally gone out to fight and command, even if his troops were defeated, the people of Qin would still have a chance. As long as they choose another good general next time, they will definitely be able to turn defeat into victory.
Xiang Junan and Peng Chao all defeated and wiped out their tens of thousands of troops, but it was like nothing happened. No one in the Qin State really doubted that the Qin army was not the opponent of the Jin army."
"But Fu Jian is different. He is the king of Qin, the de facto monarch. If the most elite Qin army he leads is defeated in the front, then no one in the world will think that he is capable of unifying the country. It is destiny.
His son, no matter whether he can survive this battle or not, rebellions will definitely break out in various places. Only in this way will our Murong Dayan's opportunity really come."
