Chapter 757 Sister is a person who does great things!
It was of course Fulong's responsibility to save Di Qin in the crisis, but whether it was when Fu Jian was still there or now that he is dead, Fulong had no intention of replacing him.
"However, we must at least send a message to Fu Pi first so that he can stabilize Yecheng."
Yecheng is also one of the important towns in the north. The city has high walls and is surrounded by the Zhang River, which acts as a natural barrier.
When Fu Jian saw off Fu Pi, he also held his hand and earnestly asked him to guard Yecheng well and not make any mistakes.
Now, according to Murong's route, they will definitely pass through Yecheng before returning to Dragon City.
In other words, Murong's troops who fled from Chang'an City will encounter Fu Pi who is guarding Ye City early, and Fu Pi's defense may not be very good.
You should send him a message in advance so that he can be prepared.
However, Quan Yi's suggestion was a bit late.
At least twenty days have passed since Murong's departure. What had he been doing?
Now, it's time for Murong's troops to reach the gate of Yecheng City!
It's already too late to send a message now.
"Shang Shu Quan is right, a message should indeed be sent."
Although it is too late, Quan Yi is right, what should be done must be done.
Fu Pi has a violent personality. If he knew that the court was ignoring him, he would be even more angry.
The situation became even more difficult to deal with.
Fulong picked up the pen, thought about it, and handed it to Quan Yi.
It would be better for an outsider like Quan Yi to write this kind of letter involving court politics.
Just as Quan Yi was thinking about how to start the chapter, a hurried voice suddenly sounded outside the hall.
Both of them were shocked.
Could it be that Chief Yao is going to attack again?
Not long after, a dazed little eunuch appeared in front of everyone.
He fell to his knees and groaned for a long time without being able to say a word.
Quan Yi was a little anxious and was about to ask more questions, but Fulong stopped him.
The more critical the moment, the more important it is to remain calm.
Fu Rong walked to the little eunuch and helped him up with his own hands as he was out of breath.
"General!"
"General, it's not good!"
Of course it’s not good!
It's not like he doesn't know the current situation in Chang'an City, where can there be good news.
"Don't be impatient. Take your breath and speak slowly."
Fu Rong's kind tone calmed the little eunuch's fear.
I saw him trembling, and finally spoke: "General, Jizhou Mufu Pi has come to report that Murong Hong's troops have arrived at Ye City. This is a letter."
"It's so fast!" Fu Rong murmured.
Having said that, in terms of actual walking distance, the time is almost the same.
Fortunately, the Qiang people have been driven out of the inner city, otherwise this news might not have been sent in!
Even so, in order to deliver the message, Kuai Ma's messenger changed his clothes and pretended to be an ordinary businessman before sneaking into the city.
If he was still wearing the Qin army armor, let alone entering the city to deliver a message, his head might have been chopped off and hung on the city gate before he reached the city gate.
Fu Pi's letter was written in a hurry, and it can be seen that there was not much thought in his words.
This is also normal.
From his point of view, the appearance of Murong Hong's army near Yecheng was a bolt from the blue and something he had never imagined.
Apart from urgent consultation with the court, he could not care about anything else.
According to Murong Hong, Chang'an City was already in chaos, and Fu Pi's biological father Fu Jian was also dead. These news were a huge blow to Fu Pi.
He couldn't accept it for a while, so he wrote a letter.
More importantly, he wanted to consult the imperial court for countermeasures.
"Master Quan, Fu Pi said that Murong Hong wants to return to Longcheng via Yecheng. Do you think you can believe them?"
This was the real purpose of Fu Pi's urgent letter to the court.
The first is to determine the situation in Chang'an City, and the second is to discuss with the imperial court whether the so-called borrowing a way can be achieved.
The soldiers and horses led by Murong Hong were all elite soldiers who had been stationed in Chang'an City for a long time. They were brave, adept at fighting, and fearless.
For them, their hometown is right in front of them. As long as they pass the Yecheng level, they can say they have succeeded.
Fu Pi is still a bit confident about his abilities.
He expected that Yecheng's troops and horses alone would not be enough to deal with Murong's attack.
There are two key points now. One is Murong Bu's true intentions.
Do you just want to borrow the road, or do you just do it in the name of borrowing the road?
Seriously, he wanted to occupy Yecheng as his own.
After all, Yecheng is not far from Dragon City. With such an important town in front of you, everyone is envious.
Although Fu Pi has average abilities, he is not a fool.
If you allow him to borrow the passage at this time, wouldn't it be equivalent to opening the door to Yecheng?
Personally welcome Murong Hong into the city?
He Fu Pi is actually Murong's good son?
It was precisely because of this level of concern that Fu Pi still did not reply to Murong Hong even if he shouted in front of the city and broke his throat.
But this is not a long-term solution after all.
Murong Hong's army would not leave until they could pass through Yecheng. They remained entrenched on the outskirts of Yecheng, staring at Fu Pi with eager eyes.
If you were Fu Pi, you wouldn't be able to sit still in the city.
Moreover, as the stalemate lasted longer and longer, Murong Hong's attitude became stronger and tougher, and he was particularly impatient.
These were all predicted by Fu Pi in his letters, but they are also facts that are happening now.
It is also a long distance from Yecheng to Chang'an.
Come and go again, for twenty days.
When the letter was sent out, the situation of the two armies was acceptable.
Murong Hong still had discussions with Fu Pi, but by the time the letter was delivered to Chang'an, the situation had become increasingly tense.
But there is another possibility here that cannot be ignored.
What if Murong Hong’s request is sincere?
Did he really just want to take advantage of the road near Yecheng and had no intention of occupying it?
If this was the case, all he had to do was to gently raise his hand and let Murong Hong pass, and the matter would be settled.
So Easy.
So easy.
No danger will occur, and Fu Pi doesn't have to jump around in a hurry.
So, everything is in one thought.
"Master Quan, Fu Pi means to ask us for reinforcements. Look at this..."
At the end of Fu Pi's long speech, the purpose was to seek help from the imperial court.
When the imperial court sent troops, Fu Pi became strong-willed.
Whether you are fighting with Murong Hong or really letting him go, you can always let him go.
"General Fu, I'm afraid we won't be able to meet this request."
Fulong squeezed the letter tightly and sighed again and again: "That's what the minister said."
In sending troops, Fulong was indeed powerless to control Di Qin's current situation.
The situation in Yecheng is still uncertain, but the situation in Chang'an City cannot be relaxed for a moment.
After that night of fighting, Di Qin's elite troops had already lost a lot.
It's all a fluke that we can still maintain a relatively peaceful state today.
On Chang Yao's side, he was also seriously injured because he was attacked from both sides by Murong's and Ding Ling's troops.
Precisely because both sides suffered casualties from each other, it was not easy for either side.
Yao Changcai remained on hold.
But this does not mean that he gave up the fight for Chang'an City.
On the contrary, he made up his mind to occupy the magpie's nest.
Otherwise, he would have withdrawn his troops from around Chang'an long ago. What would he be doing in Leyouyuan?
Once there are soldiers in the city, Commander Yao will definitely find out.
The emptiness in the city is definitely a major benefit for Yao Chang. He will jump up and attack Chang'an City as soon as possible!
By that time, this group of soldiers will not be able to solve Fu Pi's dilemma, and will plunge Chang'an City into a war.
The situation is even more critical.
Both Fulong and Quan Yi understood that they were in a situation where they could never let any of their troops leave the city.
"But, we have to find a way." After a moment, Quan Yi murmured.
Yecheng was an important town of Di Qin and firmly controlled Hebei. If it were lost, Hebei and the area near Longcheng would all be included in the Murong tribe's sphere of influence.
This is what Fulong and the others cannot tolerate.
Fu Pi was determined to defend the city, so he refused to use the road.
With his combat capabilities, he can defend this city.
The only shortcoming is the strength of the troops.
Murong Hong's departure was equivalent to taking away all Murong's elite troops in Chang'an City, which amounted to tens of thousands of people.
These tens of thousands of people are extremely powerful in combat.
As for the garrison in Yecheng, all together, they are about the same as these Murong troops.
Not dominant.
The soldiers of Murong's tribe were eager to return home, and they were all those who had endured hardship for twenty years under Di Qin's rule.
I have a deep hatred towards Di Qin, and I wish I could get rid of him quickly.
Now, it's just their homesickness that temporarily overwhelms their hatred of Di Qin.
Once the conflict shifts and Murong's sword is directed at Di Qin, the fighting power of these soldiers who have been wandering around for a long time must be extremely terrifying.
Without the support of the imperial court, Fu Pi alone would not be able to defend Yecheng.
Fulong was in a dilemma, but Quan Yi had an idea and came up with a way.
"General, I do have a solution, but I don't know if the general can accept it?"
How long has it been, and the old man still dares to lie?
"Shang Shu Quan, if you have any solution, please tell me immediately!"
"I think we can ask the Puppet Jin for help, but I'm afraid that Fu Pi is too stubborn to do so."
During the late Jin Dynasty and the Northern and Southern Dynasties, it was common for several divided small courts to help each other.
Because several major forces often invade each other and fight back and forth, it is difficult to have a final victory or defeat, who will annihilate whom in one fell swoop.
Therefore, some defeated generals, or ministers who are not popular in their own court, will regard the hostile court as a retreat.
It is normal to run north or south.
Comparatively speaking, although there is less cooperation among several imperial courts, it is not impossible.
If Fu Pi can figure it out, it would be a good strategy to ask Jin for help.
After all, since the civil strife broke out in Di Qin, Jiangzuo has been peaceful for a long time. It is certain that after a long period of recuperation, their fighting power must be very strong.
Nowadays, transportation between the north and the south is much more convenient than before.
This is also thanks to Wang Mi.
If he hadn't captured all the important towns in Jiangyou, maybe it wouldn't be so easy for Di Qin to send a message to Jin!
The distance is too far!
The only obstacle now may be the general guarding Yecheng, Fu Pi himself.
Fu Pi has a strong personality, has no tolerance for others, and lacks strategy.
For him, asking for help from Jin was a first-rate humiliation.
Is he willing to bow his head?
"There's nothing to worry about!"
Unexpectedly, Fulong was very open-minded in this regard.
For him, this is not a problem at all.
"Let's do it and not embarrass Fu Pi."
Fu Pi is not the only one who can write so-called letters of help.
Quan Yi suddenly realized.
yes!
Just do it!
The question is, is the Jin Dynasty willing to send troops to help?
…………
On the other side, Wang Mi and Wang Shilang, who had been working hard all the way from Jiankang City, finally arrived at the outskirts of Jingkou.
Although he was good at equestrian skills, he was so tired from all the hard work that he couldn't walk anymore.
We could only send a messenger to inform the Beifu tent first.
As for himself, he took a group of people and stopped at the post house for a while.
"How about it?"
"Can you still hold on?"
Brothers He Mai and He Wuji sandwiched Shen Suanzi in the middle and protected her all the way.
In fact, Shen Suanzi needs protection from others. According to her, her riding skills are no worse than those of the two brothers.
She was dressed in sky blue uniforms and wore a traveling crown on her head. She looked like a young lady from an aristocratic family, and she looked quite majestic while riding a horse.
No one could tell that she was a woman unless they looked carefully.
Shen Suanzi wiped his sweat and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter."
"I'm worried that you might not be able to bear it."
We have always known that Shen Suanzi is a very aggressive and tough-talking person, so since she refused to admit it, the two of them gave up.
After dismounting and going to the post house to rest, Wang Mi was the first to take a seat.
Shen Suanzi was very excited. He walked around and looked at all the scenery along the way.
I sat down for a while, my mouth and eyes were still busy.
Look here, look there.
Finally, he said: "If you ask me, the scenery near Jingkou is much better than that of Jiankang City."
"You are just being picky." He Wuji retorted.
"This is just the outskirts of Jingkou. There are barren mountains and ridges everywhere. The vegetation has not been carefully pruned. It's just wild. What's there to see?"
"Not to mention that it cannot be surpassed, it is difficult to even compare with Jiankang City!"
Shen Suanzi shook his head and said: "What Brother He said is wrong. The scenery here is all natural. Every plant and tree maintains the form it should have. This is the most beautiful."
“Although the scenery of Jiankang City is beautiful, it has gone through too much manpower and has lost its authenticity.”
"I am a rough person, I can only appreciate the natural scenery."
"You are such a weirdo."
The He brothers looked at each other and quickly reached a consensus.
A few people were chatting enthusiastically, and Wang Mi also joined in.
"I don't know whether the scenery in Jingkou is the best, but it is definitely more lively."
Everyone looked at Shen Suanzi, and then nodded fiercely.
Shen Suanzi's eyes widened with disdain on his face.
"Who do you look down on?"
"You think I came to Jingkou just to watch the excitement?"
"I'm telling you, I'm here to do great things!"
"When the time comes, you people don't block my way!"
Who wants to block her way?
Shen Suanzi also waved his hand, as if he wanted to drive away everyone who was blocking his way.
Don't look down on me, she is a person who does great things!
