Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 979 What to fight?I won’t take refuge!
"You still want to unite with all the ministries of Xianbei?" Yuwen Yidougui's eyes widened, "Do you want all the ministries of Xianbei to unite to besiege Youzhou and deal with the Chen family?"

"Perhaps now is the best opportunity," Yuwen Duande did not answer directly, but the true meaning of his words was clearly revealed. "Otherwise, we will not wait until the Chen family has established a firm foothold!"

"That's nonsense!" At this moment, another person jumped out, but he was a young man who looked quite smart and capable. "Murong Xin was defeated and made an alliance with Chen Gong under the city. How dare An have the guts to invade Youzhou again? Now Chen Gong captured the king. The clan, expelling Murong, even ordered our troops to retreat, and Duan tribe fled in the face of the wind. We only need to make an agreement with Tuoba to stabilize our position. As the overlord of the north, how can we attack lightly?"

Yuwen Duande looked over after hearing this, his brows suddenly furrowed, and he recognized a person who was gradually showing his prominence on the way to escape eastward. His name was Mo Qianhun, who often made shocking remarks. This person made many suggestions during this escape eastward. , gradually relied on by Yuwen Yidou.

However, when Chen Zhi was mentioned in these words, he was respectfully called Chen Gong. Not only Yuwen Duande was unhappy, but others were also puzzled. However, Yuwen Yidou didn't say anything, and it was difficult for everyone to pursue it.

However, Yuwen Duande didn't like this person. He felt that this person was quite flattering and a sycophant. Now he came out to cause trouble, so he asked unceremoniously: "Mo Qianhun, you say I am Nonsense, but it is a fact that we were forced by the Chen family to flee here. The reason why we can take a breather is that the Chen family was restrained by Murong again, and Youzhou has not yet fully digested it. When the dust settles, At that time, the Chen family will be in dire straits, how will we deal with it?"

He asked sharply, and everyone in the room fell silent. They felt their hearts were heavy and they all had a sense of crisis. Even Yu Wen Yi Dou Gui couldn't help but restrain his thoughts, no longer dwell on Deng Fei's affairs, and instead thought about The future of the entire tribe, as well as their own status.

Only Mo Qianhun's eyes flickered. After scanning everyone, he looked at Yuwen Duande, smiled, and asked: "Why should we worry about the Chen family's power?"

This rhetorical question immediately stunned all the worried people.

Even Yuwen Duande was startled, but after all he was well-informed, and he immediately understood what Mo Qianhun meant, and it was not good to secretly talk.

Sure enough, Mo Qianhun followed and asked: "Is it because he was attacked by the Chen family this time and lost his troops and generals, so he wanted to become an enemy? Then when Wang Jun first came to establish his authority in the north, didn't he just win over Duan Bu? , and then joined forces with the Duan Department to attack the surrounding areas, so our Yuwen Department would suffer less? But how did we deal with it at that time?"

"I see!"

For a moment, everyone felt enlightened.

"The situation back then was different from now!" Yuwen Duande frowned and was about to point out the difference, "Wang's and Chen's acting styles are completely different. What Wang pursues more is authority..."

"How different can the things officials in the Central Plains want?" Mo Qianhun shook his head and cut it off before the other party finished speaking, "Look, Wang Jun comes from a wealthy family, and Mr. Chen also comes from a wealthy family. Wang Jun also comes from a wealthy family. Jun Jun used his military skills to intimidate the North. Chen Gong also trained military soldiers from Daijun. Wang Jun took Youzhou as his roots, and Chen Gong now also occupies Youzhou. Comparing the two sides, to us, they are exactly the same. , As for the difference in ambition between the two, that is a matter for the Han family to worry about, why do we think so much?"

This analysis of three times five divided by two immediately made many people's eyes light up and they nodded repeatedly.

When Mo Qianhun saw this, he felt proud. He knew that coming forward this time was the right move. As long as he continued to convince everyone, he could rise up and become the think tank and mastermind of the clan, and further contact with the core circle of power. However, compared with This Yuwen Duande and his like still need a backer and a foreign aid. If they want to win, it depends on this time.

With this thought in his mind, Mo Qianhun continued: "Since the Chen family is so powerful that it is difficult to stop it, why bother to fight? Just like Wang Jun at that time, why not just find an opportunity to join us? Then this will become a formidable enemy. Support, maybe they can rise because of this. Now that the Murong family and the Chen family are enemies, Chen Gong will definitely not support the Murong family. Who else can he rely on to stabilize the situation in the Northeast? The relationship between Duan Bu and Wang Jun, That is to break the bones and connect the tendons. The Tuoba tribe is far away at the bottom and is still restrained by the Xiongnu. Looking around, aren't we the best choice?" These words immediately made many people think. They all seem to make some sense.

"How can it be such a simple thing?" Yuwen Duande immediately objected, "After all, you are young and don't know the truth. When Wang Jun proposed that our troops surrender, we did not agree immediately, but negotiated back and forth, and even had many conditions. It is an act of mutual benefit and mutual utilization, but Chen's behavior is different. For example, his seventh-grade Xianbei is no longer an alliance, but a vassal. Our Yuwen Department is greatly weakened at this time. Wherever we have the conditions to negotiate with Chen, we must grasp it. Seize the opportunity that the opponent has not yet firmly established..."

"As you said, the Chen family has not yet stood firm at this time, and our Yuwen Department has also suffered heavy losses. Both sides are unwilling to continue fighting. Isn't this the best time?" Mo Qianhun was unreasonable and grabbed him. The loopholes in the other party's words came into play, "Looking around, Murong has risen. Now the alliance under the city is a shame. He must be eager to fight back, but he is not strong enough, so he has to surrender. Duan Bu originally backed the mountain of Wang Jun and ordered everyone in the Northeast to fight back." People refused to obey, but now they have lost their troops and fled here like us. They must not be reconciled. You are going to send two envoys. When the two sides heard this, they must have hit it off, and then sent our Yuwen Department as a vanguard. Isn’t that what we have? Are you sick? They are the ones who want to take action, but we take the initiative to join forces?"

"Yup!"

After everyone tasted it, they all felt that this statement was true.

Mo Qianhun smiled and continued: "On the contrary, when Mr. Chen first arrived in Youzhou, it was when he needed help. It was a good opportunity to provide help in the snow. The person has not yet stood firm. This is the opportunity for us to bargain. If we don't seize it at this time, Instead, we have to join forces with others to fight, and we may not be able to win after the battle. If we lose again, our Yuwen Department will really be disbanded!"

Having said this, he no longer went to see Yuwen Duande, but directly saluted Yuwen Yidou, saying: "I would like to go to Youzhou, meet with Duke Chen, persuade him to accept our department, and then strive to allow my department to stay." In the Northeast, open up new territory and expand our territory!”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent for a moment. They finally understood why this new counselor called "Mr. Chen". It turned out that he had already planned to take refuge, but this was not necessarily a bad thing, so they all turned their attention to Yu Wenyi. Dou Gui, the temporary leader of the Yuwen Department pondered for a moment, glanced at the ugly-looking Yuwen Duande, nodded, and uttered one word——

"allow!"

………………

A few days later, the news about Murong's tribe spread to the ears of more forces, and an undercurrent immediately surged.

However, the main leader, Chen Zhi, had already led his army southward and arrived at Shanggu.

"After temporarily subduing the Murong tribe, there are only two problems left in the Northland, namely the Tuoba tribe and the order of the Northland." Behind Chen Zhi, soldiers and horses were setting up camp, but he stood in front of the army, discussing with others, "The order of the North Land has to wait for all the forces to take their own positions. There is no rush. As for the Tuoba tribe, we have to start with the General Wei in front of us."

After he finished speaking, he raised his head and looked forward. At the end of his sight was a city surrounded by rammed earth walls.

The city wall is low, and many places look simple, showing that it was recently built. There are not many people in the city, mostly soldiers. "
