Huan Rong

In the military tent, Murong Chui spread out the map and drew on it with his slender fingers, quickly delineating three possible routes of advance.

More than [-]% of the Jin army sent troops from Yanzhou to avoid Yuzhou.

There is a severe drought in the north this year, and waterways may be blocked and cut off.If the Jin army marched by land, he would have plenty of time to dispatch troops, recruit conscripts, stop [-] troops on the way, and even win a big victory.

However, is it necessary to do so?

Huan Wen is a man who knows how to fight, and if he wants to repel the Jin army, the army in his hands will definitely lose a lot.

Murong Ping and Kezuhun's wooing him now is nothing more than to be intimidated by this powerful army.If the soldiers are lost, the strength is greatly reduced, and the deterrence is no longer there, and the two have no scruples, I am afraid that their own death is not far away.

With Murong Ping in power, he might be able to keep him for a while.

If it was the Kezuhun family, the butcher's knife would definitely be raised immediately.This woman only pays attention to power and never considers other things.

Allow Jin people to go north?

In Ye City, Murong Li, Murong Chong, and Murong Xian can all lead the army, they have little chance of winning against Huan Wen, and holding on to the city is more than enough for a period of time.

If he stands still, Yecheng will definitely ask for help after suffering a great loss.

At that time, the strength of the Jin people will be exhausted, the soldiers will be exhausted, and they will be defeated in the face of internal and external attacks.

Looking down at the map, Murong Chui's eyes flickered slightly, and he fell into deep thought.

The knight told what he had learned, and was taken down again.

Murong Chong stood in the tent, staring at Murong Chui without blinking.Watching Murong Chui sketch on the map, watching his expression change slightly, the premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger.

"Uncle." Murong Chong said suddenly.

"What's the matter?"

"If Jin people go north, will Yuzhou send troops?"

Murong Chui stopped his movements, slowly raised his head, his eyes fell on Murong Chong, the invisible pressure suddenly hit him, the latter clenched his teeth, his face turned slightly pale.

"You go down."

After Murong Chui finished speaking, the counselors in the tent got up to leave, and the guards in front of the tent stood with their backs facing each other, not allowing anyone to come within ten steps.

"Fenghuang," Murong Chui motioned Murong Chong to sit in front of him, and said in a deep voice, "I will save Yecheng, but not now."

Murong Chong didn't speak, his lips were drawn into a line.

"You have been smart since you were young, and you know the situation in the court." Murong Chui sighed, closed the map, and said, "If I lead an army to fight to the death with the Jin people, regardless of victory or defeat, the military power will be taken away. After Yecheng, I'm afraid I won't be able to save my life."

"Uncle..." Murong Chong's voice was dry and hoarse.He wanted to shake his head and argue, but he couldn't get the words out of his mouth anyway.

Regardless of Murong Ping, he knows the queen mother and his own mother.

The Empress Dowager has always been displeased with Murong Chui, as long as she seizes the opportunity, she will definitely try to get rid of him.

Murong Chui and the Empress Dowager hated to kill their wives, and it was not easy to rebel without immediately raising troops. It is really unrealistic for him to abandon Yuzhou and risk everything to rescue Yecheng.

"The people of Jin are so powerful that they combine the strength of the whole country. They are not monolithic." Murong Chui has a grudge against the Kezu Hun clan, and he is not loyal to Lord Yan, but he likes Murong Chong very much, otherwise he would not be with him .

"The people of Jin prefer to settle down in the south, relying on the strength of their troops, they can't compete with the west and north prefectures. The northern prefecture is especially strong. The rest of the prefectures, except Huanchong and Yuan Zhen's infantry and archers, are not to be feared. There are no good fighters in the country. , It is not easy to win, but it is not difficult to defend the city."

Murong Chong listened carefully, his thoughts changed sharply, and he vaguely guessed Murong Chui's intention.Knowing that my uncle is protecting himself, there is nothing to criticize, but when I think of my mother and sister who were born in Yecheng, there is always a hurdle in my heart.

"Uncle, I want to go back to Yecheng." Murong Chong said in a muffled voice.

"No." Murong Chui shook his head.

"uncle!"

"I say no!" Murong Chui said in a deep voice, "There are rumors in Yecheng that Murong is criticizing the people who are in the dark and wants to send the princess and prince to Chang'an as a hostage! If you go back, I will not be able to protect you anymore."

"Uncle, that old thief doesn't dare!" Murong Chong's face turned red, he clenched his saber tightly, and said through gritted teeth, "If he dares to plot against my sister and me, I will make his blood splatter three times!"

Murong Chui still shook his head.

After all, Murong Chong is still young, so he doesn't understand a truth, the situation is stronger than others.

If Murong Ping was able to overcome all opinions and convince the whole court that sacrificing the two princes and princesses could "repair" the Di people and invite "rescue soldiers", even if the Queen Mother and Lord Yan jointly opposed it, Murong Chong would still not be able to be saved.

"You are not allowed to return to Ye City!" Murong Chui made a final decision, not giving Murong Chong a chance to object, "From today onwards, you are not allowed to leave the camp for half a step, unless you have my warrant."

"uncle!"

"Fenghuang, listen to me." Murong Chui stood up, walked around the low couch, pressed Murong Chong's shoulder with one hand, and said in a deep voice, "No matter how bad Murong Xianbei is, he can't send the prince and princess to the Di people!"

"But my sister..."

"I will find a way." Murong Chui's assurance did not have much confidence, but it was the only way to keep Murong Chong.

"Uncle," Murong Chong lowered his head, gritted his teeth hard, and finally said in a low voice, "I believe in Uncle."

"Okay." Murong Chui withdrew his hand, thought for a while, and put it on the top of Murong Chong's hair again, "You don't like my bow, I will give it to you when this matter is over. Don't go out for a while, I will Let Shen Ran teach you how to draw a map."

"Uncle, I don't want to learn." Murong Chong frowned, "I get a headache just looking at this."

Murong Chui smiled.

"If you don't want to learn, you have to learn. If you don't know how Tutu will lead the army to fight in the future. Also, if you want to practice calligraphy, you must learn the characters of the Han people. You don't need to write poems like the Han people, at least you must be able to understand the art of war."

"promise."

Murong Chong knew that he couldn't argue, so he could only nod his head in agreement.

As he turned to leave the tent, determination flashed across the boy's eyes.

Although his uncle forbade him to go back to Yecheng, if the situation was urgent, he would run back even if he sneaked away!

The uncles and nephews in this room had their own thoughts and were preparing for the upcoming battle. Huan Rong, who was far away in Yanzhou, was kneeling upright in the commander's tent with his hands clasped in front of his head. Not even a slight tremor.

"Big Sima." Xi Yin couldn't see it, and reminded him aloud.

Huan Wen turned his head, gave him a serious look, and finally got Huan Rong to stand up.

"Son, I haven't seen you for several months, why are you so unfamiliar?"

"Don't dare." Huan Rong stood up, and said with a serious look, "Secretary affairs are not allowed in the military camp, and dare not make mistakes."

After saying a word, Sima Huan's face became even more serious.

Xi Chao raised his eyebrows in surprise, Xi Yin turned his head, glanced at Huan Xi who was lying on the ground, and then at Huan Rong who was speaking righteously, and instantly understood that Huan Rong's move was not out of anger, but to block Huan Xi's way to bite back .

The descendants are different, the elder and the younger are orderly.

As Huan Rong's son-in-law, he was naturally half-headed of Huanxi.However, Huan Xi is the eldest brother, almost old enough to be Huan Rong's father, Huan Rong imprisoned him, there is always something unreasonable.

"Father!" Huan Xi breathed a sigh of relief, seeing Sima Huan's ugly expression, thought he had a chance, and immediately struggled to his feet, accusing Huan Rong of ignoring the military order to imprison the Shangguan, and conniving at the murderous servants to beat him up.

"Father, his actions are presumptuous and domineering, and he doesn't pay attention to the general's orders at all! His servants look like villains and rascals, how dare they attack my son!"

"Father, if you violate the military order, you should be severely punished. The murderous servant who beat up the nobles will be beheaded according to the law!"

With the bloodstains all over Huanxi's face, the pain all over his body, and the great resentment held in his chest, he finally had a way to vent at this moment.

According to him, Huan Rong is heinous, not killing is not enough to show military regulations, and his evil servants are even more like wolves, they must beheaded and killed to relieve their hatred!

When Huan Xi was speaking, Huan Rong neither interrupted nor refuted angrily, but stood proudly all the while, his eyes swept over Huan Xi, as if he was looking at a clown.

One is ugly and the other is heroic. The contrast between the two is too strong. Not to mention Xi Yin who is secretly shaking his head, even Xi Chao can't stand it, not to mention Sima Huan who has a dark complexion.

Huan Xi didn't realize it yet, he was still talking, and Sima Huan's face was already black as hell.

Complaints also need to pay attention to skills!

Just as Huan Rong clarified that the military camp does not show favoritism, Huan Xi calls him father, implying that Huan Da Sima is the master.

If there was no one else in the tent, Huan Wen wouldn't be so uncomfortable, but Xi Yin was sitting here, obviously watching a joke, his mocking expression was like a slap as big as a cattail fan on Sima Huan's face, one after another, it was loud.

"Father, for my son..."

"shut up!"

Sima Huan slapped it down with his palm, and cracks appeared on the two-finger-thick table case, which showed how much strength was used.

"Father?" Huanxi didn't understand.

Xi Chao secretly sighed, the eldest son is so dull, if Duke Ming ascends to the throne in the future, there will be no successors.

"As the elder brother, you are ashamed of not being close to your brother!"

Hearing this sentence, Huan Xi was dumbfounded on the spot, and Huan Rong sneered.

When he is a child with a yellow mouth, don't you understand?

Leaving aside the rumors in the camp, and not mentioning that Huanxi disrespected his aunt, he instead turned the matter on his brother's anger, obviously trying to make a major issue into a minor one.

Can the scumbag get what he wants?

Of course not!

Please come to the door, if you don't pay back, let the other party hold it high, and fool around at will, you will really get the reputation of being a soft persimmon.The Northern Expedition lasted for at least a few months and came every other time, it really wasn't enough to cause trouble.

"Superintendent, you can get the official documents, order five hundred soldiers, and three hundred servants to go north with the army." Huan Rong said solemnly, "The team entered the city, but before it was reported to the commander's camp, the master book recorded the soldiers, and the son brought people into the camp. , with a military order in hand, declaring that all infantry servants will be dispatched."

When Huan Rong was speaking, several figures appeared outside the tent one after another. Judging from the official uniform and armor, they were all the assassins of the states leading the army.

Xun You and Zhong Lin sent people to broadcast rumors, not just to make Huanxi look good.The main purpose is to attract these "big fish".

Xi Yin came to see Huan Wen in advance because he was entrusted.

Without him to hold Huan Wen and frighten Xi Chao, there would not be enough time for the two of them to act.

Similarly, without him in the tent, if Huan Rong came to see Huan Wen alone, he might not have the chance to speak in public.It may even be punished by turning black and white to offend military orders.

It's not that they underestimated Sima Huan's character. Anyone who encountered such a trap would react similarly in order to protect themselves.

Huan Chong and the others didn't want to take this muddy water trip.

However, the "troop deployment" and "military orders" involved in the rumors aroused their suspicion.Hearing that Huanxi holds the troop dispatching order, he can mobilize any army, no limit to the number, everyone finally couldn't sit still.

This is not just Huan Rong's problem.

Assuming today is the game and Huan Rong is punished according to the military order, whose turn will it be next?

The ancients were good at brain supplementation.

Some people even think that Sima Huan's Northern Expedition was a pretense, in order to lure them to Yanzhou to catch them all, and send people to take over the territory.

Thinking of this, even Huan Chong broke out in a cold sweat.

There is no father and son in the Tian family, and there is no family affection in front of power.

Don't mention any real brothers, Huan Mi is a precedent.What would happen to the most talented brother among the brothers when he was suppressed by Sima Huan?

Huan Chong was able to serve as the assassin of Jiangzhou because he was "loyal" to his brother.If one day Sima Huan no longer believed in this loyalty, I'm afraid his fate might not be much better than Mi Huan's.

All brothers think so, let alone others.

Knowing that Huan Rong escorted Huan Xi to see Huan Da Sima, everyone stopped hesitating and came to the commander's tent together.

As the rumors simmered and fermented, the impact of the matter began to expand, and it was no longer limited to the contest between Huan's father and son brothers, but involved the entire Northern Expedition army.

Those with bare feet are not afraid of wearing shoes.

Although Huan Rong is not barefoot, compared to Huan Da Sima, he can still go all out and fight for a while.

Seeing Huan Chong and the others appearing, Sima Huan frowned, pondered a few times in his heart, and looked at Xi Chao, feeling terrified.Looking at Huan Rong standing in the tent again, he couldn't help feeling a little apprehensive.

Perhaps, he underestimated this son from the very beginning.

Led by Huan Chong and Yuan Zhen, the assassins who participated in the Northern Expedition entered the account one after another.

Sima Huan couldn't drive people away, so he could only ask everyone to sit down with a stiff expression.

As a member of the army, Xi Chao gave way again and again, and was finally squeezed to the bottom.Without a seat, he simply stood beside Huan Wen, frowning and saying nothing.

Huan Rong was not in a hurry to continue talking, but greeted everyone present first.

Compared with the official position, he is the youngest.

In terms of age, he is also the youngest.

Be polite at this time, you may not get any benefits, at least you won't offend others.

Huan Chong is his uncle, he has already known his destiny, but he has thick black beard and hair, and a straight face.When he wasn't smiling, there wasn't even a frown in the corner of his eyes.Tall, at least eight feet tall, with a black dark coat, he is really handsome.

If it was replaced by later generations, he would be 100% handsome and handsome, at the level of a spike.

Yuan Zhen sat under Xi Yin's head, and it was not easy to guess his age just by looking at his face.Compared with the tough and handsome Huan brothers, he has the elegance of a literati, so it's no wonder that he can make friends with Xi Yin.

Looking at the first two people, and then looking at the rest, some are half a hundred years old, with silver hair and beard, with a sense of immortality, and they are also young when they are not confused.

Regardless of age, except for handsome men, they are also beautiful men. Sitting in a tent like this can really dazzle people's eyes.

In the so-called era of facial recognition, it is really difficult to find a high-ranking official who looks mediocre and looks like Zhong Kui.

Huan Rong regained his composure, withdrew his thoughts, and started talking according to the expected plan.

Let's start with Huanxi's dispatch of troops with military orders, including his greed, wanting to seize military rations, riding his horse to hurt people when he was found out, uttering evil words when he failed, insulting his brothers, not to mention disrespecting his aunt, even Sima Huan scolded them all.

Regardless of whether the order is reversed or not, whether the cause and effect are correct, in short, Huanxi did everything, and he has no way to deny it.

"My son knows the difference between the upper and the lower, and also thinks of the brotherhood, and dare not make decisions without authorization, so I brought my elder brother to see my father."

At the end of the conversation, Huan Rong knelt down again, and instead of calling him "Superintendent" he called him "Father". Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Sima Huan's breath was stuck in his chest, and he couldn't get it out, he couldn't hold it down, he felt extremely uncomfortable In words.

Let Huan Rong say everything, and Huan Xi's braids grabbed a lot, Huan Da Sima couldn't do favoritism at all.

"Father!" Huan Xi was finally not stupid to the end, knowing that the situation was not good for him, he hurriedly struggled, "Father, he is talking nonsense!"

"I'm not talking nonsense."

Huan Xi was completely enraged, so he rushed towards Huan Rong, grabbed his collar, and said loudly: "You talk nonsense, you talk nonsense!"

Perhaps because of being too excited, the movement was a little too big, the silk belt tied around Huanxi's waist suddenly broke, and the front of his clothes was opened.

The corner of Huan Rong's mouth slightly lifted, and using his sleeve to cover it, he stuffed a roll of bamboo slips into Huan Xi's arms.Then he took half a step back and pulled Huan Xi's hands away.

With a bang, the bamboo slip fell to the ground, the tether broke, and unfolded in front of everyone, it was the dispatch order with the seal of the Great Sima.

Huan Xi stared blankly at the bamboo slips, but didn't react for a while.

Xi Yin, Huan Chong and the others immediately lowered their expressions.

The troop dispatch order that Huan Rong said was in front of Sima Huan at this moment, so what's going on with this troop dispatch order?

Who is it for?

Is it true that Huan Yuanzi invited everyone to Yanzhou under the pretext of the Northern Expedition, just as he thought before, because he wanted to catch all the people and remove all obstacles?

Huan Rong pushed Huan Xi away, picked up the bamboo slips on the ground, and brought them to Sima Huan.

"Father, this order... is about military affairs, so I shouldn't ask about it." Huan Rong hesitated to speak, and his acting skills were top-notch.

I'm xxx!

Sima Huan almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

Facing everyone's questioning eyes, knowing that something was wrong, Sima Huan gritted his molars, stared at Huan Rong, and said word by word: "Huan Xi is good at passing on military orders, with a stick of thirty! Take the vanguard general, and drop the team leader!" !"

The prince of the dignified county actually became the team leader, and he could only lead 200 people, which was the first of its kind in the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

This is not the most serious.

If the Thirty Army Sticks were beaten down without mercy, Huan Xi would be seriously injured even if he was not disabled.

Huan Rong pleaded for mercy, but Huan Wen insisted on beating him.

The more the former begged, the harder the latter would fight.

After three times, Huan Rong said in a deep voice: "Son, I dare not disobey Father." The words fell aside.

Sima Huan's face turned blue, and he almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.

Huan Xi was completely dumbfounded, being dragged out of the tent by the government army, he even forgot to struggle, until the army stick was added to his body, he let out a scream, which became louder and louder.

Standing in the tent, Huan Rong felt the piercing gaze on his body, raised his head, and met Sima Huan's gaze without dodging or avoiding it.

The matter has come to this point, he does not intend to make any further concessions, nor can he make further concessions.

People do not offend me and I do not offend others.

Since the scumbag father wants him to die, why should he be polite.

Sooner or later, you will tear your skin apart, and you should report your grievances directly, without giving an inch!
