Three hundred and ninetieth chapters intrigue

"I have nothing to do, but the newly appointed prefect of Liaodong seems to be disrespectful to my father." The person Murong Han mentioned was Jiang Tong, "How could King Yan use such a person?"

"You have never been to Luoyang. When your father was young, you always lived in Luoyang. People like Jiangtong were everywhere in the Central Plains. This is how the people of the Central Plains were towards us barbarians." Murong Wei's expression remained unchanged, and he ordered without surprise, "How could there be no mud and sand in the river? However, the King of Yan ruled the northern part for many years and knew everyone that the appointment of a prefect would not be so rash. Jiangtong only had to be able to live with us Xianbei people."

"I don't know why the King of Yan summoned the leaders of the four Xianbei tribes. Judging from his son, the Xianbei tribes are all bordering Youping and the territory of the Tuoba clan was only slightly related to Youzhou and was summoned by the King of Yan. This move is difficult for people not to associate. Should we do something to us? My son heard that the King of Yan secretly ordered his subordinates to check their household registration in the Jurchen territory east of Fuyu." Murong Han said worriedly, "In terms of my Murong clan's previous process of following the King of Yan in the east to fight, the King of Yan has always adhered to the practice of loose outside and tight inside. He almost never prepared before sending troops, but food, grass and weapons can be supplied. Looking back, he had already prepared."

"The secret recruitment of the Jurchens by King Yan is not really for us, right?" Murong Han asked at Murong Hen.

"It shouldn't be. It's possible to target one of them, but the territory of the four Xianbei tribes is too large. With the land of Youzhou alone, you can't cover everything. The four tribes have been strengthened over the years, and they are in a balanced situation under the rise and fall of one. If they target one of them, it may cause chaos outside the frontier. This is definitely not what the King of Yan wants to see." Murong Ling shook his head slightly, and he could see from his face that he must have thought of this question, "Think about the problem from the other party's perspective, and you will understand that many things are not that simple."

"Son know!" Murong Han nodded and smiled, "I believe this problem has been broken by other leaders."

"It turns out that Jicheng has a different world. Wu Chen said it, but I didn't care. Now I think about it. This is Yelang's arrogant." Juan Jie had already led his troops to Jicheng. As soon as he arrived outside the city, he was attracted by the drinking water bridge built with huge rocks. This is not over yet. The outer wall of Jicheng is a rammed earth wall. It's just that, and it is definitely not majestic and spectacular.

But after entering the outer city, you can see the city walls of Jicheng. They are made of stones, and the stones are polished into concave and concave, and they are closely linked to each other, supplemented by bricks and stones. The entire city wall is integrated, and the main streets in the city are also paved with stone slabs. They are very different from other cities in the Great Jin Dynasty, which has attracted many praises, thinking that Luoyang, the capital of the Great Jin Dynasty, may be just like this.

"The Shanyu didn't know that this is the case. My King Yan has a lot of experience in building a city. There is also a wall of the royal palace in this inner city, which is a piece higher than the inner city wall. The wall of the royal palace has only been completed this year." Yan Yan was surprised when he saw Duan Jie, and the old god said, "Although it is not as neat as the walls of the inner and outer cities, there is a different world. If there are soldiers guarding it, it is enough to be a hundred."

"It's so?" Duan Jie was shocked and looked at the huge rock walls in the inner city and sighed, "How many people do you need to dispatch this?"

"It is not an exaggeration to say that it is made of flesh and blood." Yan Yan smiled coldly, "Jicheng is enough to accommodate 600,000 people. Currently, there are less than 200,000 people. The remaining places are relatively empty and used to store food, grass and weapons for emergencies. It is enough to eat for five years. There is no shortage of water in the city, and the drainage is very fast, and flooding is useless. Since there is no shortage of water, fire attack is useless."

The royal palace walls mentioned by Yan Yan are actually the medieval bastions in Europe. The bastion once shone brightly in the era of alternating hot and cold weapons. Although the era of pure cold weapons was weakened a little, its advantages still exist. For example, if you fight with less and more, the geometric shape of the bastion is conducive to cutting the formation of the attacking side, but when you approach the city wall, the neat formation no longer exists. The prominent part of the bastion can be used to cover the attacker on both sides with bows and arrows, which is more conducive to concentrating firepower than facing frontal shooting.

For this reason, Sima Ji also occupied a lot of territory in the inner city. Since the King of Yan had something to do, someone had to sacrifice for it. Therefore, some inner city government offices that were originally within the expropriation were directly demolished by Sima Ji. The territory of the inner city was not small and could be moved to places outside the bastion.

However, Sima Ji was careful and did not demolish the more important official residences of the governor's mansion and the chief official. These vassal officials in Youzhou were still within the radiation range of the bastion.

When it's okay, Sima Ji can climb up to the platform and use a telescope to see if there are any beautiful maids changing clothes in the other mansion. Well... it's to see if there are any villains with ill-conspiracy. The King of Yan is ready to support the country at any time.

"Yeah!" The inner-serge Du Xi coughed softly, reminding Yan Yan a lot. Fortunately, he had not told all the important parts of the inner city yet, and explained to Duan Jie, "The Shanyu also knew that Youzhou is the frontier, and Jicheng is a military center in the north. It is correct to be prepared for response at any time. It is not that he does not trust the Xianbei, but that Shanyu should be able to understand it."

Sima Ji would definitely be glad if he wanted to do this again. He really got a talented person who could plunder the people's wealth and acted too hard, and did too many things to do in his worries. He explained that he was so beneficial to the country and the people. He was indeed a talented person of the Du family of Jingzhao.

If it is not for this reason, what else can it be? There are so many beautiful beauties and so much wealth in the Yan Palace, don’t you need advanced defensive power? As for why not make the entire Jicheng into a bastion, how can the Yan King have money? What kind of project is this?

"The stage has arrived? I have lived in the inner city and led him around. There are leaders of the other three ministries that have not arrived. Don't be stingy with money. When you come, you will be a guest. People come here at the risk of Hongmen Banquet. It's nothing to be polite." Sima Ji listened to Du Xi's report, of course he also knew what Yan Yan was bragging for him.

Fortunately, he didn't tell the story of the Yan Prince's Mansion having a armory, but Yan Yan didn't know either.

"I know, and there is a return from the horse exploration. Murong and Yuwen have entered Liaoxi County. Calculate the journey and should be in Beiping County now. As for the Tuoba family, they have entered Dai County." Du Xi reported 100,000 soldiers in the west of Duan family, and seem to be ready to respond at any time. Murong and Yuwen are also on guard against each other."
