  Chapter 717 Simple little prince

  Zhao Hanzhang and Chen Bing were 50,000 miles away from Pingyang City, while Bei Gongchun led 20,000 troops to stand between Shangdang and Pingyang to guard against Shile;

  Zhao Erlang and Chen Wu each led 20,000 soldiers and horses to suppress bandits in various counties and counties, and gathered refugees. At the same time, they were ready to respond to Zhao Hanzhang at any time.

   And Fu Zhi also squatted in Fengyi County with 20,000 soldiers and horses, guarding against the western Xianbei going south.

  Even Zhang Gui in Xiliang began to mobilize troops to move closer to Chang'an to support Fu Zhi.

   Liu Yuan in the Pingyang Palace saw that Da Jin had mobilized so many soldiers and horses, it was hard to believe that it was just to help Liu Kun contain himself.

  Wang Siniang asked Zhao Hanzhang why he didn't take advantage of the victory and pursue it. Liu Yuan was also worried that Zhao Hanzhang would take advantage of the victory and pursue it and enter Pingyang.

  So he issued five military orders in a row, telling Liu Cong to bring the army back quickly.

  Liu Yuan claims to have an army of 100,000 guarding Pingyang City, but only he and a few generals of the Han Dynasty know that there is no 100,000 army in the city.

  Zhao Hanzhang needed to be on guard, but Bei Gongchun was even more frightening, so Liu Qin led an army of 80,000 to stare at Bei Gongchun.

  Liu Kun is guarding Jinyang. This place has always been in the Han Dynasty. It is a thorn in Liu Yuan's eye and a thorn in his flesh. So when he has the opportunity, he will hand over the most important team to Liu Cong to attack Jinyang.

  As for the other armies, they are in the hands of the leaders of the various ministries.

   It was guessed by Zhao Hanzhang that Liu Yuan, who was eating big fish and meat, was standing on the city wall and looking into the distance.

  He turned and went back to the palace.

  Crown Prince Liu He saw his father's complexion was not good, so he asked, "Is father worried about Zhao Hanzhang outside the city?"

Liu Yuan sighed and said: "Zhao Hanzhang's dispatch of troops is inevitable, there is nothing to worry about, we didn't occupy a few cities there, because the terrain is unfavorable, the people in those cities almost escaped, she got There are only a few empty cities. What I am worried about is that the various ministries will delay the support in the future."

   "If Pingyang is attacked in the future, and they don't support it for a long time, will our Han Dynasty be safe and sound?"

   Liu Hedao: "Isn't there still General Shi? He is in the Shangdang. As long as Zhao Hanzhang dares to attack, his father will let Shi Le send troops. Can our 200,000 troops not beat Zhao Hanzhang's 100,000 people?"

  They only claim to have 200,000 yuan, and, is Shi Le really willing to use his wealth to fight for Han?

  Before he and Liu Cong fought each other, and he was the one who snatched Shangdang first, and Liu Cong was very angry about it.

   But he couldn't say these worries, otherwise it would reach Shi Le's ears, which would be the ironclad evidence that he didn't trust him.

  Liu Yuan wanted to wave his hand to make the prince retreat, but thinking that he was not too young, he held back and sent people to call a few more important ministers to discuss the matter, "When will Xuanming return to Pingyang?"

  Liu Cong, courtesy name Xuanming.

  Da Sima Liu Yang immediately said: "They are rushing all the way, and they should be able to return to Pingyang tomorrow afternoon."

  Liu Yuan: "I wonder if Zhao Hanzhang will send troops to attack at night?"

   Tai Fu Liu Huan said: "I feel that Zhao Hanzhang's move is only for deterrence, and has no intention of attacking. For the past two days, she has only set up camp, and she has not even made any offensive gesture."

   Liu Yangdao: "It is precisely because of this that we should be more careful. Zhao Hanzhang is good at using tricks and tricks. How do you know that this is not her trick to confuse the enemy?"

   "That's right," Liu Yuan was also worried that Zhao Hanzhang was paralyzing them, and then took the opportunity to attack Pingyang, "This person is full of tricks, we have to be careful."

  Liu Yang suggested, "Your Majesty, why don't you issue another edict to order Shi Le to lead the troops to help?"

  The Grand Sikong Liu Yannian on the side said: "No, Bei Gongchun is currently stationed between Pingyang and Shangdang. Shi Le may be stopped before he reaches Pingyang."

  Liu Yang: "It's not the only way from Shangdang to Pingyang, it's a detour to the north."

  That was the territory of the Huyan tribe. Prince Liu He was not happy, and immediately said: "No, what if Shi Le passes by and takes advantage of the situation to rob our city?"

The main reason was that Shi Le would pass by and replace him. Originally, Shangdang was Wang Mi's domain, and Wang Mi was Liu Yuan's general. If he died, Liu Yuan should send someone to take over Shangdang. Shile couldn't hear it. The imperial court ordered it to be directly seized.

   Liu Hedao: "Shile was born as a slave, humble and ignorant of etiquette, I am afraid he will not keep his promise, father must not trust him."

Liu Yuan said angrily: "Don't say such things again. He was a slave, but he was also Prince Jiehu before. It's better to see that he is now my general. You said just now that he can deter Zhao Hanzhang. Why, now he wants to follow you. If the territory of the mother's family passed by, is he not trustworthy?"

   Liu He lowered his head, but his face was still a little unconvinced.

  Liu Yannian sighed: "Your Majesty treats General Shi preferentially, and the other tribes are unhappy, so they have not come to support for a long time."

Liu Yuan slapped the table angrily and said, "Do I still need their consent to treat my generals politely? Now that the capital is facing a strong enemy, they are still fighting over such trivial details. The Han Kingdom has only been established for a few years. Have you followed in the footsteps of Jin?"

  Liu Yang frowned slightly. Although he didn't agree with some of Liu Yannian's views, he still said, "Why does Your Majesty want to fight against the tribes because of a person like Shi Le? He is only a bearded man, and he is still a slave."

   Liu Yuan respected the Han family and considered himself Liu Chan's heir, but he was a Hun, and the people around him were all Huns.

   Liu Huanxi, Liu Yang, Liu Yannian and other ministers are all Huns who took a Han surname.

  In the country of the Xiongnu, they looked down on Han people and Jiehu, but in the bottom of their hearts, Jiehu were more humble than Han people, so they looked down on Shile and Jiehu from the bottom of their hearts.

   And Shi Le was not only a Jiehu, he was also a slave, and everyone looked down on him even more.

  No one understands why Liu Yuan treats Shi Le so courteously, just like they don't understand why Liu Yuan respects Han Zhi.

  They are the Huns, so they should govern the country according to the methods of the Huns. Except for the Huns, everyone else is an inferior race.

  Han people and Jiehu are only allocated to them as slaves carrying shoes.

  This kind of ideological disapproval separated them by a wall, thicker than a city wall.

  Liu Yuan was so angry that he was half dead, and his heart was blunt and painful. Finally, he got angry and directly ordered all the ministries to come to King Qin of Pingyang. If anyone doesn't come, he will bear the consequences!

  Liu Yuan drove everyone out except his youngest son Liu Yi.

   Liu Yi is the son of Empress Shan. He was born late, so he has been receiving his father's Hanzhi education, and he himself is more inclined to Hanzhi.

  At the same time, the little prince still kept his innocence, so after helping his father to sit on the dragon bed, he asked, "Why didn't my father negotiate peace with Zhao Hanzhang first?"

  Liu Yuan still had some headaches, so he didn't react for a while, and asked instead: "What?"

   Liu Yi explained: "Since my father doesn't feel sorry for the lost city, and is afraid of her attacking Pingyang, why don't you negotiate peace with her first? Maybe we can negotiate it?"

  Who said he doesn't feel distressed? Although there are few people in those cities, it is difficult to enter anyway, so how can he not feel distressed?

   But facing the innocent face of his youngest son, Liu Yuan sighed, waved his hand and said, "We have an endless relationship with Jin, how can it be so easy to negotiate a peace?"

"How can it be endless? My father used to be a minister of Jin, and he also studied in Luoyang. The relationship with Jin is more friendly. My son thinks that we can try to negotiate peace first. If we can end this relationship with Zhao Hanzhang in a nice way There's nothing better than fighting."

   Liu Yuan had a headache and said, "I see, let me think about it."

   Now his heart hurts, his head hurts, and he just wants to be alone.

   Liu Yi glanced at his tired father, pursed his lips, and agreed.

   As soon as he retreated, he looked out of the city, then gritted his teeth and pointed at his own soldiers and ran out of the city. He wanted to find Zhao Hanzhang and personally persuade her to retreat!
