Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 645 Surrender is also fought!

"I met two generals..."

The two men looked quite strong, half a head taller than Yang Song and Yang Yuan, but after seeing them, they immediately bowed their waists and looked humble.

"Where did you two come from?"

Yang Song put on airs and asked about the visitor. In fact, he had already figured out that these two people were from Xianbei, and judging from their demeanor and physique, they were definitely top figures among the Xianbei ethnic group.

Sure enough, after hearing the introductions of the two people, they turned out to be the lieutenants of the Xianbei marshal Duan Wenyang, a clan member of the Duan clan. One of them was also a Duan clan and was considered a member of the clan, but the identity of the other person was a bit strange. He was not a member of the Duan family. He was the leader of a medium-sized tribe outside, who was brought here under the influence of Duan Wenyang.

Suddenly, Yang Song and Yang Yuan looked at each other and understood their origins.

Of course Liang Yang knew Duan Wenyang's fate very well, and also knew that several of his generals and subordinates had followed the Xianbei marshal on the road.

But they were all die-hards, at least not willing to give in at all, so they were sent directly to the road. However, there are exceptions to everything, and these two people were obviously willing to bow their heads.

Looking at these two people, Yang Yuan asked indifferently: "Since you two were arranged by the prefect, there must be some intentions, why don't you just talk about it."

The two nodded in agreement.

One of them said: "Two generals, I have friendships with the chiefs of several tribes in the north. You can go over and persuade them to retreat as soon as possible!" This person was the chief of the middle tribe.

According to him, this person's tribe was originally attached to the Yuwen tribe, because after the Battle of Jicheng, the tribe was almost exposed to the soldiers of the Murong tribe, so they had no choice but to move westward, but unexpectedly encountered an enemy on the way. When Duan Wenyang's troops arrived, they were forcibly recruited.

"Two generals, Duan Wenyang's move this time can be said to be unpopular with the people. Our tribe originally moved to the west to escape the war. As a result, he couldn't help but forcefully included us in the army because of his strong soldiers and horses and large numbers. , and forced me to come over to attack Daijun! Who among our tribesmen don’t know the prestige of Governor Chen? We don’t dare to be enemies with him at all, but he was forced to come over. I already have dissatisfaction in my heart. As far as I know, this Many of the tribes in the north have wanted to resist for a long time, but due to the Duan tribe's strength, they have tolerated it. They don't know Duan Wenyang's fate yet, so they just stay back and contact them. They will do it anyway!"

"Oh? You said your name is Qifuzhun? What's the relationship between the Qifu Department in the west and you?" Yang Yuan glanced at this person, and then looked at the other person. He noticed that the person in front was speaking. At that time, the person behind this didn't look very good.

Come to think of it, this second person is also named Duan. Listening to this Qifuzhun arrangement in person, of course it is inevitable that he will have other thoughts.

The Qi Fu Zhun immediately smiled and said, "That is also a branch of my Qi Fu tribe. It has moved westward long ago. We consider it the east branch."

It turns out that there is now a Xianbei tribe active in the northwest of Guanzhong, claiming to be the Qifu tribe. This tribe exterminated another large tribe at that time about five or sixty years ago, so it is very famous in the Guanzhong generation.

The Yang family is located in Huayin, but has a close relationship with Guanzhong. Naturally, they are aware of such a tribe. Now after hearing what Qifuzhun said, they roughly understand that even if this tribe is not a branch left by the Qifu tribe when they moved west, it is definitely one of them. Close relationship.

While he was talking, Yang Song simply asked the second person: "What about you?"

The second person was named Duan Chang. Hearing this, he calmed down his expression and lowered his head and said, "Although Duan Wenyang and I are both Duan clans, my group was killed a long time ago. This time I came with about 1000 troops. However, they were all regarded as vanguards by Duan Wenyang and more than half of them were lost. Now the remaining troops are outside Daijun. I have also been dissatisfied with him for a long time. This time I will definitely convince all the people in the Duan family who are dissatisfied with Duan Wenyang to make the outside world The troops fell apart."

"Is that so?"

Yang Song and Yang Yuan looked at each other, and both had a rough idea in their hearts.

"You guys go down first and let's discuss it," Yang Yuan waved his hand and asked the two of them to leave first, "Don't worry, we also know that time is tight and it won't be long."

Qifuzhun and Duan Chang nodded and were about to go down. At this moment, Qifuzhun turned around halfway and said to the two of them: "This time, Duan Wenyang forced us to attack Daijun, not only those from abroad. Those tribes, among the tens of thousands of people who entered Dai County before, there are also several small tribes, and they all hate Duan Bu very much and want to join the eunuch!"

"Huh? What do you mean by this?" Yang Yuan was suddenly stunned, narrowed his eyes and asked, "Do you want to join the prefect?"

"To be honest," Qi Fu Zhun stopped, and with Duan Chang's complex expression, he spoke to Liang Yang again, "We and other tribes migrated this time because they were forced to have no choice but to avoid being held accountable by Murong's tribe. Therefore, many people come here, hoping to take shelter with the Tuoba tribe. However, since they are defecting, it is not fixed which party they will take shelter. The key is to be able to frighten other parties. After the war, the prefect will definitely be famous. Grassland, we are also willing to submit." Yang Song nodded and said: "In this five-party war, the four-party coalition surrounded Murong, and the only one who was not involved was the Tuoba tribe. We all have friendships with each other, so it’s normal to want to take care of this tribe, and I remember that the Qifu clan was also one of the several famous surnames in the Tuoba tribe before that."

Yang Yuanze said: "If that's the case, why do you have to sacrifice the near for the far? No matter what the Tuoba tribe is, they are still a grassland tribe, and they are different from the prefects behind us."

"Actually, this is the problem," Qi Fuzhun said frankly, "Because the Tuoba tribe is also a Xianbei tribe, once I pass by, I will be completely absorbed if I am not careful, so the reason why Qifu Xizhi Finally continuing to move westward has something to do with this."

"Are you determined to maintain yourself, but also want Daijun to protect you?" Yang Yuan shook his head, "I'm afraid it's not such a good thing, and..." He looked at Qi Fuzhun and raised his voice a bit, "Are you also thinking about Dai Bei? Even if Wang Quan does not exist, this land will still be the Han family. It is impossible for so many foreigners to live here like he did before!"

He said it so directly that Yang Song's expression changed slightly, and he wanted to say a word or two to comfort him. Unexpectedly, Qi Fuzhun smiled and said: "General, you have misunderstood. Of course we know what the prefect meant." , so I just hope that we can gather in a border area outside of Dai County, and if we can get the approval of the prefect, that would be the best."

"In this case, it's useless for you to tell our brothers." Yang Yuan stopped asking further questions and turned to himself, "You still have to talk to the prefect about this kind of thing."

"I mentioned this matter when I was in Dai County, but the prefect did not agree." Qi Fuzhun was quite frank, "I came out to work for the prefect this time just to show my loyalty, and the two of you are here The prefect is the most courageous and skilled in fighting under his command, and he is also the prefect's confidant. If you two are willing to put in a few kind words for me, I think the prefect will definitely consider it."

"Well, of course we are the confidants of the prefect," Yang Song immediately showed joy when he was commented like this, "But in terms of fighting ability, we are just taking advantage of it. But if you really want it..."

Before Yang Song could finish speaking, Yang Yuan took the lead and said: "Okay, you go down first. How to deal with it, we two brothers will give you an answer after discussing it."

"I understand." Qifuzhun glanced at Yang Song, then at Yang Yuan, and finally left.

"This person seems to be sincerely loyal to me!"

As soon as they left, Yang Song couldn't help but talk.

Yang Yuan shook his head and said: "You can't believe everything this man says. He attacked the city with Duan Wenyang and was caught later. Now we have to let him out, whether it is to disturb the troops outside the country or to say Regardless of trying to persuade him to surrender, it is tantamount to letting the tiger go back to the mountain. If he takes the opportunity to escape, we still have to follow the original plan. Therefore, a large part of the purpose of what he said is to make you and I feel relieved to let him out. , you think, if he said that he wanted to join the governor, he would come back after leaving. Once we think so, his goal will be achieved. "

"Yes, if you didn't tell me, I almost forgot!" Yang Song clapped his hands, "That's right, what if he escapes once he is released? The prefect made some miscalculations this time."

"The prefect still has arrangements," Yang Yuan still shook his head, "Obviously, the prefect will not just let the two of them go out alone, and there are more than just these two people who have taken refuge. There must be considerations in selecting the two. Maybe they have something to do. and hostages in hand. Secondly, the reason why we chose one from the Beggar Clan and another from the Duan clan is obviously to let them restrict each other. In addition..."

He narrowed his eyes slightly.

"What else?" Yang Song couldn't help smelling it.

"It is very likely that this is also a test for you and me by the prefect," Yang Yuan did not hide it, and expressed his guess, "To be honest, many people now say that you and I are superior in military use, but as long as you have seen that guard In city battles, you know that the reason why Ruan Bao was able to defeat Ruan Bao was actually relying on cannons and firecrackers. There are not many times to truly test you and me. This time to deal with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses outside the country is an opportunity!"

Yang Song thought for a while and couldn't help but nodded: "That's right! Then we have to think carefully about how to master Qi Fu Zhun and Duan Chang!"

"No, how can these two people be mastered in a short time?" Yang Yuan's voice gradually became deeper as he spoke, "We still have to prepare our troops and horses! When the people who ambush Wang Quan come back, and the chariots, artillery and artillery are back in place, we can then let the beggars ambush Go out, and then regardless of whether he can persuade him to surrender, we will make a surprise attack! Because of the quasi-submission, this group of people must be unprepared, and this is the opportunity to attack more with less!"

"This..." Yang Song felt that it was unethical to do this. "In any case, this beggar must have gone to recruit surrender..."

"Before this group of people were surrendered, or in other words, before all the leaders were actually sent over to be hostages, they were all thieves! The thieves should be dealt with severely!"

Yang Yuan said lightly, but his brother Yang Song felt a chill in his heart. He looked at his brother as if he was meeting him for the first time.
