    Youzhou, Jixian.

    Prince Yan¡¯s Mansion.

    Zhu Huai is now the King of Yan, based in Youzhou, and looks quite prosperous.  It's just that Zhu Huai, the King of Yan, although he claims to occupy Youzhou, is actually not worthy of his name, because there is always a thorn in his heart.

    This thorn is Wang Zongxi.  Because Yuyang County, controlled by Wang Zongxi, was strong, it was never able to be included in the Yan Kingdom.  As long as Wang Zongxi does not join the Yan State, he will always be a threat to the Yan State.

    The most important thing is that Zhu Huai could not kill Wang Zongxi, so Zhu Huai always wanted to plot against Wang Zongxi and bring Yuyang County under his command.  Zhu Huai had never had such an opportunity before. It was this time when Xianbei besieged the city and blocked Yuyang County that he decisively sent troops to seize the counties south of Yuyang County.

    Although Zhu Huai said he would seize the counties, he was still worried.  As long as Wang Zongxi is not dead, Zhu Huai will not be able to rest at ease. Only when Wang Zongxi is dead and Yuyang County is no longer a threat can he finally feel at ease.

    "Compared to an extravagant person like Yuan Wei, Zhu Huai, the leader of the Yan Kingdom, was the overlord of one side, but he was reviewing government affairs all day long and was so busy that he never touched the ground.

    Zhu Huai worked so hard because he hoped that he could truly establish himself in Youzhou.  When it came to going south to sweep the Central Plains, Zhu Huai asked himself that he did not have the strength and ability.  His idea is to stay in a corner and run Youzhou well. This is his idea.

    During this period, Zhu Huai was in a very bad mood because his plan to encircle and suppress Wang Zongxi failed.  As for Xianbei, Xianbei war god Tuoba Longcheng and prince Tuoba Hong both died in Yuyang County.  Wang Qi even led more than a thousand soldiers into Xianbei and massacred all Xianbei tribes.

    Such strength made Zhu Huai tremble with fear.

    I was very afraid that Wang Zongxi would come to kill me.

    "It's a pity that the sword has been unsheathed. He has already sent troops to deal with Wang Zongxi, and it is impossible to change his tune."  Therefore, Zhu Huai could only defend Yan State now, hoping to use the southern counties of Yuyang County to curb Wang Zongxi's strength, and even hoped that Wang Qi would die on the grassland.

    Wang Zongxi is powerful, but without Wang Qi¡¯s support, although Wang Zongxi is powerful, it is limited.

    While Zhu Huai was handling government affairs, footsteps came from outside the hall.

    A tall figure entered. The person who entered was forty years old and almost fifty years old.  With gray hair and beard, he stood in the hall, bowed and saluted: "My lord, Tian Yue, pays homage to the king."

    Zhu Huai said: "Prime Minister, sit down!"

    Tian Yue is a native of Ji County and comes from a wealthy Youzhou family.  Although the Tian family is not as good as the Wang family in Youzhou, the influence of the Tian family is very strong in the counties south of Youzhou.

    The reason why Zhu Huai became king quickly was because of Tian Yue¡¯s help and the Tian family¡¯s support.  Correspondingly, after Zhu Huai became king, he was rewarded based on his merits. Nowadays, many Tian family members and Tian family members serve in the counties and counties of Yan State.

    Tian Yue looked solemn and said: "Your Majesty, Wang Qi led his troops into Xianbei territory, and the latest news has come back."

    Zhu Huai looked hopeful and said: "What news? But Wang Qi is dead?"

    Tian Yue said: "Wang Qi is not dead. Not only that, Wang Qi also killed all the Xianbei tribes and even trampled the Xianbei Royal Court. In the battle of the Xianbei Royal Court in Danhan Mountain, Wang Qi killed Xianbei old king Tuoba  After winning, Wang Qi returned in triumph and returned directly to Yuyang County. Following the Xianbei side, the newly appointed Xianbei King Tuoba Chen sent Tuoba Wuji south to seek peace."

    brush!

    Zhu Huai¡¯s complexion changed drastically.

    Xianbei actually sued for peace, so what should he do?

    If Wang Qi only killed Xianbei Tuobahong and Tuoba Longcheng, or even killed other Xianbei tribes, then Wang Qi and Xianbei had a deep hatred, and Xianbei would most likely retaliate at any time.

    Now Wang Qi led more than a thousand people into Xianbei territory, beating the Xianbei people until they lost their temper, and even forced the Xianbei people to seek peace.  Under this premise, the north had no power to restrain Wang Zongxi.

    In other words, Wang Zongxi can now free up his hands to attack various counties in Youzhou.  Even with Wang Zongxi's strength, it would be easy to take back the counties in Yuyang County.

    Zhu Huai took a deep breath, suppressed his irritability, and said in a deep voice: "Prime Minister, the current situation is very unfavorable to us! Wang Zongxi's prestige is too high. If Xianbei wins and suppresses Wang Zongxi, we can still fight. But  Wang Zongxi and his son defeated Xianbei, and even made Xianbei actively seek peace. The news spread throughout Youzhou, and we were extremely passive."

    Zhu Huai himself was a scribe. He used to be the governor of Youzhou and acted on behalf of the shepherd of Youzhou.

    Have your own judgment.

    Zhu Huai is not sure about the current situation.

    Tian Yuedao: "Your Majesty, the current situation is indeed very unfavorable to the Yan State. However, I believe that Wang Zongxi has not gone south yet, nor has he said that he will attack us. So we will ignore it for the time being and wait and see what happens."

    Zhu Huai said: "This is the only thing we can do."

    "Report!"

    At this moment, another soldier entered and reported: "Your Majesty, the latest information from Yuyang County has been sent back."

    Zhu Huai said: "Send it up."

    The eunuch on the side immediately took the letter and placed it on the desk in front of Zhu Huai.

    Zhu Huai opened the letter and looked at it. After reading it, his slightly elegant face became more dignified and helpless. Then he sighed and said, "Prime Minister, this situation is really difficult to handle."  .¡±

    Tian Yue knew it was bad news and asked, "Your Majesty, what news is it?"

    Zhu Huai said solemnly: "First, we arranged for Liao Qian and others in Yuyang County to be captured and beheaded. This was done by Wang Zongxi in front of all the people. Even before the beheading,  When Liao Qian, Wang Zongxi said at that time that he would take revenge and would not let go of those who took advantage of the situation."

    "This time Yuyang County was attacked, wasn't it us, Yan State, who took advantage of the situation and robbed it?"

    "So, Wang Zongxi must go south."

    "Second, we originally captured the counties in the south of Yuyang County. The people in these counties have all surrendered to the Yan Kingdom. But now, with Wang Qi's return, the old king of Xianbei was killed, Xianbei sued for peace, and Wang Zongxi declared war.  As soon as the news came out, the situation suddenly changed, and the counties directly raised their flags to rebel, and now they have surrendered to Wang Zongxi."

    "Originally, we could rely on various counties to resist Wang Zongxi, but now we no longer have this depth."

    "Thirdly, the people in the counties of Youzhou are panicked, and there are rumors everywhere that Wang Zongxi is going south to capture Youzhou. It would be fine if there is no Xianbei incident, because the old king of Xianbei was killed, Xianbei sued for peace and surrendered, and the people of the counties  I was already scared, and even looked at the local sentry and said that the local people are panicked, and it is very likely that someone will ask the late King Zongxi to surrender."

    Zhu Huai felt extremely sad.

    The news sent back this time is really too bad.

    brush!

    Tian Yue¡¯s expression also changed again and again.

    The situation is getting worse.

    Zhu Huai asked: "Prime Minister, how can we resist now?"

    Tian Yue said: "Your Majesty, let me think about it."

    The current situation in the Yan Kingdom is still difficult for Tian Yue, even though he is from a Youzhou family and is even Zhu Huai's adviser.  Although the strength of the Wang family has never been revealed, the Wang family has a profound foundation and is definitely stronger than the Tian family.  Wang Zongxi once lived in Yuyang County, so Zhu Huai was able to establish a country and become king.

    Now that Wang Zongxi has announced that he will capture Youzhou, the entire situation in Youzhou has changed.

    Tian Yue thought about it bit by bit, sorting out the stakes.  After a while, Tian Yue said: "Your Majesty, in my opinion, now we can only ask Wang Zongxi for peace."

    Zhu Huai said: "I don't agree."

    Seeking peace is tantamount to giving in. Once you seek peace, you will have to pay a considerable price.

    This is what Zhu Huai does not want.

    Tian Yue was silent for a moment and then continued: "Your Majesty, if you are not willing to seek peace, you can only fight. Now for us, there is no extra choice. Either go to war or seek peace, these are the two options.  .¡±

    A flash of light flashed in Zhu Huai's eyes and he said: "Then let's fight."

    Tian Yue disagreed in his heart, but Zhu Huai had already made up his mind, so Tian Yue did not object and said: "I obey your order. Since the king is ready, I will start making arrangements."

    "Report!"

    At this moment, another soldier rushed in.

    The soldier looked panicked and knelt on the ground like he was pushing a golden mountain over a jade pillar, saying: "Your Majesty, news came from Shanggu County and Dai County. Almost at the same time, the two counties issued notices announcing their separation from the Yan Kingdom and raised their flags to submit to Wang Zongxi."

    Boom!  !

    Zhu Huai¡¯s mind seemed to explode.

    The whole person was stunned.

    Youzhou is located in the northern border of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The counties in Youzhou are actually controlled by Zhu Huai, that is, they are the four counties of Shanggu County, Dai County, Zhuo County and Guangyang County.

    Yuyang County to the east of Guangyang County was controlled by Wang Zongxi. Further east, Youbeiping County, Liaodong County, and Liaoxi County were controlled by Goguryeo.  occupy.

    Therefore, after Zhu Huai lost Shanggu County and Dai County, the situation further deteriorated.

    If we want to fight, we have no confidence.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
