Wei and Jin cooks

Tuoba Yilu was hunting with his young son outside Pingcheng when he received the news. After hearing the news, he immediately returned to the city to meet the soldiers who had found out the news.

This soldier was a spy lurking in Bingzhou. He opened a mutton soup restaurant not far from Beigong Chun's home. His main task was to keep an eye on Beigong Chun's travels.

He would also buy a Di newspaper every day. Although the information that could be published in the Di newspaper was information that the court could let the people know, it was still full of useful information.

So he especially likes to send residence reports to the chief.

But he didn't expect that the information published in the Di newspaper would be so important one day. This time, he didn't trust anyone to deliver it. As soon as he got the Di newspaper, he immediately made an excuse of being sick to close the store, and then ran back to Pingcheng as fast as possible.

Tuoba Yilu looked unhappy after reading the Di newspaper.

Tuoba was happy than Yanchun, "Father, my aunt is going to be the emperor!"

Tuoba Yilu slapped him on the head, "Idiot, why is she happy about being the emperor?"

Tuoba Biyan covered his head and said, "She is your adopted sister. Wouldn't it be good for her to be the emperor?"

"No, very bad," Tuoba Yilu said: "Daijun is borrowed. The young emperor has no plans and power. It is best to maintain the status quo. In the future, if there is chaos in the Central Plains, we Xianbei may not have the opportunity to go south. .”

He said: "It is bitterly cold in the north of Shengle City, and our people are living a very hard life. I don't ask for much. I just want to settle down and live in Bingzhou. Zhao Hanzhang has great talents. Although he is a woman, he is ambitious. He only lives for one year. Time will rule the south. Do you think she will not take back the lands that are still hanging outside like Daijun and Xiliang?"

Tuoba Biyan: "But she promised her father that she would give you Daijun as a fiefdom."

Tuoba Yilu: "She has kept her promise, but she only gave me a fiefdom. If the heir has not yet been established, there will be no inheritance. What if it ends in one generation?"

Zhao Hanzhang kept his word. When Tuoba Yilu sent troops to help her, after returning to Luoyang the year before last, she issued an imperial edict in the name of the emperor, changing the county to the country, and officially named Tuoba Yilu the king.

Originally, she wanted to make Tuoba Liuxiu the crown prince, but Tuoba Yilu wrote a letter saying that Tuoba Liuxiu was unfilial and stupid, so she didn't want him to be the crown prince, so she asked the emperor to make Tuoba Biyan the crown prince instead.

However, the courtiers believed that there was order between elders and younger ones, and Tuoba Liuxiu had no actual behavior to show his unfilial piety. They believed that Tuoba Yilu's accusation was unfounded, so they refused to agree. The matter was delayed like this. Two years later, Feng Feng The prince's edict has not yet been issued.

Tuoba Yilu was angry and had not wanted to see Tuoba Liuxiu for two years.

He planned to wait for three years before writing to Zhao Hanzhang, telling her that Tuoba Liuxiu had not asked him for greetings for three years. However, Zhao Hanzhang was about to become emperor before the three years were over.

Tuoba Biyan also remembered that this aunt liked his elder brother more. I heard that Tuoba Sixth Cultivator was having a hard time in Xinping City, and his aunt even sent someone to send him money and gifts.

Tuoba Biyan thought about it and asked: "What if my aunt becomes the emperor and must make my eldest brother the heir apparent?"

Tuoba Yilu lowered his eyes and said after a moment: "I will write a letter to your second uncle."

He found an excuse to send Tuoba Biyan away, and then called the general and said: "I see that Beigong Chun of Bingzhou is very arrogant. He often associates with the Qiang Hu and Xiliang, and seems to have a disobedient heart. I will guard the north for my third sister, so I will She has the responsibility to look after the border generals for her..."

Having said all that, Tuoba Yilu only had one idea. Can they occupy part of Bingzhou to allow them to move in a larger area.

His nephew Tuobaqina immediately said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead the troops there."

But most of the generals expressed opposition, "If the king thinks that Beigong is simply disobedient, he can complain to the general, but it may not be appropriate to send troops without receiving orders."

"What's wrong? Our goal is not really for the Jin Dynasty. We want to capture the place first. As long as our troops are strong, General Zhao will not dare to send troops with us."

Tuoba Yilu nodded approvingly, that's what he thought.

Xianbei has an army of 200,000, especially the cavalry. It will not be easy for Zhao Hanzhang to defeat him. She has just ascended the throne, the country is unstable, and the power is not fully controlled, so she must not want to fight.

As long as he can occupy a piece of land for three years, it may be legalized after three years. Even if not, he can use the land in exchange for other benefits.

Tuoba Yilu said that he can bend and stretch.

The opposing general disagreed and said, "General Zhao has always been tough. What if she gets angry and must send troops?"

He showed them the newspaper and said: "She is forcing the young emperor to abdicate, and her hands and feet are tied. She must not have time to send troops. This may be our only chance in ten years."

Once she is firmly on the throne, she will not be able to compete for territory for her people in the future.

Everyone discussed behind closed doors for a long time, and finally decided to send troops.

Tuoba Yilu was good at using troops. As soon as he made a decision, he immediately dispatched troops to the border in batches. He also sent people to summon Tuoba Sixth Cultivator and asked him to recruit 20,000 soldiers and horses, and immediately went to the border for reinforcements.

Beigong Jun is also mobilizing troops. He not only has to guard against Tuoba Yilu, but also against the Qiang Hu in the west.

It's just that he has gotten along well with the Qiang people in the past two years. He has established a mutual market on the border. On the other side of the Qiang and Hu people is Xiliang's old boss, and Shi Le has made peace. They have not had any conflicts in the past two years, so Beigong Jun didn't have many people on the western border, and most of his troops were stationed in the north in three lines of defense.

The 1st and 3rd Battalions moved twenty miles to the border, planted flags, and had an unobstructed view of the vast grassland.

Tuoba Yilu received the scout's report only halfway through, and he took people to see it himself.

His second son Tuoba Pu Sugen advised: "Father, Bei Gongchun has been prepared for a long time. I am afraid this battle will not be easy to fight."

Other generals also said: "We have missed the opportunity. Since we cannot take advantage of it, it is better to give up."

"Beigong Chun's cavalry is famous all over the world. It is not inferior to us Xianbei people. If other Han people beat us, they will beat us, but he..."

Even if Zhao Hanzhang personally guards here, they are still confident of fighting, but Bei Gongchun is already prepared...

Tuoba Yilu tightened his grip on the reins.

At this moment, people on the other side of the border seemed to have discovered them. From a distance, they saw a group of people coming out of the camp and moving towards them.

It was just a group of small black dots, estimated to number a hundred people.

Tuoba Yilu looked intently, but still couldn't tell who it was. He was just asking his second son to go and investigate when a messenger came running from behind, "Your Majesty, the eldest prince doesn't want to send troops. He said, he said... "

Tuoba Yilu asked angrily: "What did he say?"

"He said that the king's attack on Jin was an unjust act, and he was unwilling to listen."

Tuoba Yilu was furious and was about to get angry. A general with great vision immediately reminded him: "Your Majesty, it's Bei Gongchun, he's here in person."

Tuoba Yilu was surprised and immediately suppressed the anger in his heart.

Tuoba Sixth Cultivator rejected you and cast a look of contempt on you.
