"But, haven't we already sent a spy out, and he said that everything is normal in Yuanjiang garrison, do you agree?"
"Could it be that that spy is still lying?"
Murong Chong's single-minded mind simply couldn't keep up with Murong Chui's thinking.
"I just agreed casually. I don't care about the specific situation in Yuanjiang garrison."
"What does the defeat of Di Qin have to do with us?" Murong Chui said this as it should be, without any guilt.
Fu Jian, who was far away in Chang'an, might have slaughtered his entire Xianbei clan if he knew what Murong Chui, who had been given high hopes by him and was treated well by high officials and generous salaries, was really thinking at this moment.
"Don't talk to Qin Jun about this matter, let alone Fu Rui know about it."
Although, Murong Chui also felt that Murong Chong was not stupid enough to report things that were detrimental to Di Qin to Fu Rui.
However, based on this kid's occasionally abnormal brain, he still gave a reminder.
Murong Chong agreed happily. There was no need to worry about this nonsense. He wished that Di Qin would be unlucky.
On the other side, Murong Chui said he didn't care about anything, but still strengthened the training of his soldiers.
If a large number of Qin troops have gathered across the river, then the target of these Qin troops must be Xiangyang!
Murong Chui didn't care what happened to the Qin army. As the leader of the Xianbei people, he only cared about the safety of his men.
Murong Chui was thinking about the possibility of drawing the Di Qin army to serve as a backing for the Xianbei army.

Yuanjiang garrison was the last Jin Dynasty-controlled garrison adjacent to Xiangyang, although it was already very close to Xiangyang.
But if you want to really arrive, you still need to walk for at least two days and two nights.
On one side of the Han River, there is Dahong Mountain, which runs northwest and southeast. The terrain is steep and the entire mountain range develops in an outward-shaped direction along the Han River.
Although Dahong Mountain has high mountains, dense forests and numerous lakes, it did not cause much difficulty to the march of the army.
Whether it was Yuanjiang Garrison or Xiangyang City, the obstacles that mountains and rivers would have on military operations had already been taken into consideration when they were first established.
Based on the direction of the Han River and avoiding the obstruction of the main mountain range of Dahong Mountain, there are convenient waterways and relatively flat Chidao connecting Yuanjiang garrison to Xiangyang City.
There are several holes between the long Chi Road, which are called "paths."
This kind of tunnel is usually surrounded by tall smooth mountain walls on both sides. Soldiers marching and fighting must pass through these dug tunnels.
Originally, these tunnels could definitely guarantee the passage of large armies without any hindrance.
However, plans can never keep up with changes.
When the army was halfway through its march after walking for a day and night, difficulties fell to the earth in an instant like a huge boulder falling from the sky.
"What...what's going on?"
Huan Chong reined in his horse and stood still. The scene in front of him was completely beyond his expectation.
"How can it be!"
"General Huan, didn't you ensure that the road is smooth and there is no problem at all? Please explain this situation."
The situation in front of him simply made Xie Xuan's Qiqiao smoke.
He waved his riding crop and pointed at Huan Chong.
Below the high slope as far as the eye can see, there is a tunnel called the Gut Path. It was originally open on both sides, but now it is tightly blocked by various huge rocks and large wooden piles.
Debris piled up to a height of five feet, blocking the road ahead.
Hundreds of thousands of Beifu soldiers plus the Jingzhou Army were about to be trapped in this place unable to move.
If you want to pass, you must clear the roadblocks ahead. Looking at the situation, it won't be cleared in ten days.
The Dahong Mountains are rolling not far away, and the terrain in this area adjacent to the Han River is relatively uncomplicated, but only relatively.
The trend of ups and downs is still there. The surrounding mountain walls are very smooth. It is difficult for soldiers to climb through it and reach the sky.
Seeing this situation, Xie Xuan first blamed Huan Chong.
As a general who fled all the way from Xiangyang and returned to Yuanjiang garrison, didn't he know the situation clearly?
"Is there no other way around here?" Faced with the difficulty, Wang Mi's first thought was to go around it.
Liu Yu pulled the reins of the horse and walked a few steps forward. Looking at the situation under the high slope, he shook his head regretfully: "Probably not."
"Other roads require climbing over mountain walls, which is really difficult!"
"However, not long ago, the road here was smooth. Why is it like this now?" Liu Yu was also puzzled by the situation in front of him.
"I feel that General Huan will not lie."
"Of course."
Wang Mi made such a judgment not as a compliment to Huan Chong's character, but based on the actual results.
Who is Huan Chong?
When encountering a strong enemy, he turns around and runs away, unwilling to put in any extra effort. For such a person, if there is really only one way from Xiangyang to Yuanjiang garrison, and it is still blocked, Wang Mi believes that,
Huan Chong would rather return to Xiangyang overnight than clear the roadblocks.
In other words, these roadblocks may have been piled up artificially after Huan Chong removed them.
Thinking of this, Wang Mi also walked forward, followed closely by Liu Yu and others.
"General Xie, I think this matter may have nothing to do with General Huan."
Xie Xuan was furious and just wanted to pull Huan Chong's big head and punch him a few times. At this time, Wang Mi actually jumped out to speak for him. Xie Xuan glanced at him: This kid is going crazy again.
"Are you sure?" Xie Xuan's tone was unkind.
Wang Mi was noncommittal. A certain great man once said that without investigation, there is no right to speak. How come these powerful officials of the Jin Dynasty don't even understand this truth.
"Of course, you can tell at a glance that these debris were piled up by people. I think it must be a dirty trick thought up by the evil thieves of Di Qin."
The direction of this road extends to Xiangyang City, and the south of Xiangyang was under the rule of the Jin Dynasty. Except for Jin people, it was impossible for anyone else to rush to Xiangyang from this direction.
"impossible!"
Before Xie Xuan could react, Huan Chong jumped out first. His active opposition really confused Wang Mi.
Brother, do you have eyesight? Can't you hear that I'm speaking for you?
Wang Mi gave hints with his eyes from time to time, but Lao Huan didn't even look at him and only focused on explaining to Xie Xuan.
"Youdu, this was not done intentionally by the Di Qin army at all. It should have been washed here by heavy rains and floods!"
A child like Wang Mi has no political experience at all. At this time, it is okay to complain about everything, but he cannot blame the problem on himself.
So what if it was Di Qin who committed evil? In the end, the responsibility would still be attributed to Huan Chong.
Although Huan Chong was sloppy in his work, he was not vague at all when shirking responsibility. As long as there was a chance, he would definitely do it for himself.
Wang Mi was also shocked.
Lao Huan can do it!
The routine is very deep.
"General Huan, don't you think I'm particularly easy to deceive?"
Xie Xuan pondered for a moment, and Huan Chong thought it was over. Unexpectedly, when Xie Xuan opened his mouth, he became desperate.
