To tell the truth, Murong Yanguo has always believed that even if Liu Yan is strong, there will be a limit. After all, it has been four years since Liu Yan had nothing.
What can you do in four years? According to the productivity of today's era, you can't do too much in four years. Even if you have a sufficient population, four years in Murong family is enough for Liu Yan to protect himself. Maybe even self-protection will be worrying.
It can even be said that the Murong family believes that Liu Yan is weaker than ran min, who has just achieved separatism. It refers to military strength, not economic ability. After all, Liu Yan has been selling salt abroad. As long as he is not stupid, he must know that the economic strength of the Han Dynasty is not much weaker.
Now, the reality seems to have drawn the mouth of the Murong mission who came to the scene. If they don't admit that their judgment is wrong, they don't deserve to be a rapidly rising regional power at all.
"We must suggest to the king to interrupt the trade between Tuoba and Han." Yang Yu knew the national policy of Murong Yan state: "we have taught Tuoba Dai state a lesson. We originally intended to spare part of the land to Tuoba family. In the plan, we only used Liu Yan."
So, it's very strange to say. Murong Xianbei beat all the neighbors that could be beaten, and beat Yuwen Xianbei, Duan Xianbei and Tuoba Xianbei who were also Xianbei in turn. However, after beating them, they would always leave some breathing space for those tribes, and the policy of destruction was not implemented.
Murong Xianbei's plan to go south has been made for more than ten years. They have been accumulating strength and sweeping the surrounding areas to make relevant preparations for going south. Under the national policy of going south, they will tolerate many things, including Liu Yan's forcible occupation of a peninsula in the east of Liao 1.
In fact, the reason why Murong Xianbei can tolerate Liu Yan's forcible occupation of a peninsula in liao1 East is relatively simple. Murong Zhuang's words are very rough. Frankly, it's only because Liu Yan is Xianbei Tiefu, half of himself. Since Liu Yan is so miserable in the Central Plains, he borrows a land to breathe.
Now Yang Yu seems that Murong seal wants to make a mistake. Liu Yan didn't get along very badly in the Central Plains. It seems that he got along very well. The coming of envoys from all sides is the best proof.
It has to be said that when all parties sent envoys to Qingzhou, only the ran Qin State and the Zhang Liang state communicated first. The rest Murong Yan state, Tuoba Dai state and the small ~ Dynasty ~ court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty all decided by themselves, and it was a pure coincidence that they would encounter one.
Under the city tower, there are still troops forming a square array. The prosperity of the military capacity and the large number of troops all present an absolute fact, that is, the Han Dynasty is definitely not as weak as some people think.
"How much?"
"There should be more than 10000."
"There are more troops behind."
"The total is about 30000."
Those who participated in the military parade were the main forces of the field. They came out of the camp, lined up, formed a square array, walked downstairs from the city, walked around, and stood still in the open space next to them, waiting for the next instructions.
A military parade was held from the first quarter of the morning (seven o'clock) to the fourth quarter of the afternoon (twelve o'clock). While watching the parade, many attendants and maidens were busy behind.
Many people brought tables and other tools, and then put the necessary tableware and other things. The kitchen temporarily set up at the bottom of the city has begun cooking, resulting in bursts of aroma reaching the city tower.
The parade is not just a positive step. After each square array is completed, it is a demonstration of various arms. The most impressive thing to the representatives of all parties is that 3000 heavy cavalry are placed in a front arrow array for impact. The movement of horse hoofs will also make the city tower slightly vibrate.
If the Huben army showed an aggressive offensive, the sudden cavalry showed an absolutely perfect division and encirclement drill, and the bow cavalry demonstrated running and shooting. The riding army drill was an expert in Murong Xianbei and Tuoba Xianbei, and a deterrent to the small ~ Dynasty ~ court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Liang state of Zhang and the Qin state of ran.
"We helped drill the Huben army." Jiang Gan said proudly, "at first there were less than 500 people, but later it developed into 3000."
Xie AI was curious: "Why are there two kinds of armor styles of Huben army?"
The most obvious difference is that the non system armor riding gear belongs to the Mingguang armor in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and the system armor heavy riding is biased towards the armor style.
"..." Jiang Gan didn't know at all, and said casually, "there should be tactical needs we don't know."
In fact, if you pay attention to the distinction, anyone can see that there are two systems of Han Army armor, one is the Mingguang armor system in the Sui and Tang Dynasties under the leadership of Liu Yan, and the other is the armor system in the two Han and Three Kingdoms periods. Two different kinds of armor have one thing in common, that is, they are forged, not cast.
The cavalry of the Han Army showed a high degree of organization, especially the cooperation between the sudden cavalry and the bow cavalry, which made people who knew the doorway absolutely feel frightened one by one.
At the time of the infantry drill, the process of organizing the battle array made everyone look more and more serious.
"Tower Shield, strong crossbow and crossbow..." Yu Yi was very excited. He seemed to see the future of the Jin Army: "we can train troops in this way!"
There is a lack of war horses in the south of the Yangtze River, especially high-quality war horses. The main force of the Jin army is the infantry. In areas with many water networks, they can compete with the Hu people dominated by cavalry. To tell the truth, if they go to the plain, the Jin Army will only be slaughtered.
"Need a lot... A lot of wrought iron." Wang Chuo frowned: "we don't have so much wrought iron."
How much does a tower shield weigh? At least 30 jin. Almost all tower shields are made of iron, and only a few are padded with leather. Then a tower shield needs 30 kg of wrought iron. In terms of the wrought iron production capacity of the small ~ Dynasty ~ court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, how many soldiers should have no weapons in their hands to manufacture tens of thousands of tower shields?
In fact, not everyone can play tower shield. It consumes too much iron, which is second to the process. Even if the small ~ Dynasty ~ court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty wants to get the Tower Shield soldiers, see what the Tower Shield soldiers of the Han army look like, and then think about the physical quality of the soldiers south of the Yangtze River
"They are all strong men of about eight feet." Yu Yi obviously understood this, and he also began to frown: "it is difficult to have high-quality troops in our area."
It is an indisputable fact that southerners are generally shorter than northerners. Especially after the end of the ancient pre-Qin era, the south does not know what kind of evolution has taken place, so it is difficult to have the tall figure prevalent in the Warring States period.
In fact, the Jin army has a special branch of arms, which is based on the tactics of the Western Han Dynasty, that is, the box chariot. The problem is that this thing is a little large. How to transport across the Yangtze River is a big project and problem many times. Then there was the lack of horses in the south, and it was too slow to pull with cattle. The Jin army was generally less able to use chariots.
If there was anything else that made the people watching the parade tremble, it was the infantry battle formation after the formation. In the dense bangs, wave after wave of arrows were fired, covering from 350 steps, almost without stopping.
"With such strength, I'm afraid only armour and riding gear dare to charge." Li Hong said with a pale face, "it's still the kind of charge that bears a certain loss."
"Forming a shield array like the Han army?" Yang Yu is wiping the sweat on his forehead. In winter, his forehead can be full of sweat. We can see his inner fear: "can you get close and kill it?"
"I'm afraid it's still difficult." Li Hong shook his head and said with a wry smile, "the Han Army's step array itself has a shield wall, and they can't let the cavalry watch."
An idea rose in many people's minds, just like the idea of many people in Shijie Zhao state and the small ~ Dynasty ~ court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, that is, we can't disagree that Liu Yan's Han ministry really achieved the general trend.
"The Han people themselves are extremely good at infantry Warfare!" Yang Yu was talking about Han people. When he spoke, he took a special look at Yu Yi and other Jin people not far away. He lowered his voice and asked Li Hong, "last time we sent troops to Tiefu's territory, those people were destroyed by such troops?"
Li Hong shook his head and said, "it's a heavy horse equipped with tools and defeated by light horse."
Both of them are people who have seen the tragic situation with their own eyes. The bodies hanging on both sides of the Lin Road still impress them, not to mention the Beijing temple built with the heads of Murong Xianbei people.
Do you know what is the biggest difference between Han people and Jin people? The Han people are violent and pay attention to revenge, but the Jin people give people an impression of incomparable weakness and rigidity.
In the history without Liu Yan, a group of people in the Central Plains also abandoned the title of Jin people and claimed to be Han people. They launched a bloody battle with Hu people. Since then, Hu people have different names for the same ethnic group in the South and north of the Yangtze River. In the later historical stage, no matter how the dynasties in the North changed, they were always called Han people. On the contrary, a considerable number of names were changed in the south of the Yangtze River. Generally, people in the south of the Yangtze River will be called Nan people. The southern people are actually a kind of contempt.
At the end of the Han Army's martial arts exercise, the ground was full of arrows.
On the tower, each of them has set his place for a banquet, but below is a large number of auxiliary soldiers recovering arrows.
In fact, in the early days, the Han Army camp was full of cooking smoke, and a strong aroma echoed around.
The banquet is full of Han characteristics, not others, but plates of fried vegetables and carefully cooked seafood.
There is nothing wrong. Cooking is an epoch-making product brought by Liu Yan. Otherwise, it will not appear until the two Song Dynasties, especially in the Southern Song Dynasty.
Before the two Song Dynasties, no one would believe that the menu of the big food nation was actually very "simple". Cooking basically depended on stewing, or eating soy sauce was popular. Many Ming people ate soy sauce and died of parasites and abdominal pain.
At the beginning of the banquet, in the face of the fragrant fried vegetables, those who have eaten are naturally impressed, while those who have not eaten are straight sniffing.
With the crisp sound of a small bell, many people start. Many wonder why there is no arrangement for vocal music or song and dance. After all, it is very abnormal that there is no vocal music and song and dance at the banquet. No music or banquet is the mainstream of Chinese civilization.
After eating, no one spoke. In the face of rich and never seen dishes, they were basically buried in the record. After waiting for a lot of food, they had time to look at each other, and the atmosphere turned from warm to strange.
"Gentlemen!" Li Hong raised the wine bottle and suggested in a loud voice, "drink for the grandeur and majesty of the Han Army!", He said, saluting Liu Yan, the Lord.
Liu Yan naturally picked up the wine bottle and gave a virtual invitation to the people present.
After drinking a bottle of wine together, everyone still looked at Liu Yan. Murong Xianbei made a start, indicating that the prelude was over. It was time to talk about some business, but it was obviously not over.
"We are all from Shijie. Do you think so?" Yang Yu first asked. When he faced Yu Yi and others, many people immediately felt that there was a good play to see. He really opened his mouth and said, "dare you ask poets and calligraphers, are you here to attack the stone tablet together?"
Yu Yi really has a good hand in calligraphy, but being called a calligrapher is obviously not a compliment. He looked at Yang Yu calmly and said slowly, "disdain to speak against the minister."
Yang Yu was angry at first, then sneered: "rebellious Minister?", He looked around, pointed to Xie AI, pointed to Jiang Gan, looked at Liu Yan and asked Yu Yi, "are you talking about us?"
Xie AI and Jiang Gan looked at each other. They were innocent, but there was no attack. After all, another Liu Yan was also involved.
"I have never been a minister to the small ~ court." Liu Yan didn't hide his disgust and said coldly to Yang Yu, "you don't deserve to be with me."
Yang Yu is not angry with Liu Yan, because the fact is that he and Liu Yan are not equal. Jun is a monarch and a minister. He can't deny it if he doesn't have a face. What he wanted had appeared, that is, Liu Yan said he didn't submit to the small court, but before he continued to ridicule Yu Yi and other people in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Liu Yan spoke again.
"If you strike the stone tablet together, you may talk. No more nonsense." Liu Yan said bluntly, "if you want to distinguish between masters and followers, it's useless to talk. With its hypocrisy, it's better to be honest."
Xie AI and Jiang Gan looked at each other again. They were quite surprised that Liu Yanhui was such a straightforward figure.
"Tiefu said yes." Yang Yu seemed to like talking very much. He suggested, "but the necessary division of labor and division is still needed. What does Tiefu think?"
At this time, Tuoba Gu said to Yang Yu: I'll look at it and never talk.
In fact, the Tuoba Dynasty is being run over by murongyan. Even if murongyan no longer beats the Tuoba Dynasty, the corundum Xiongnu iron Buddha Department of the Tuoba Dynasty has finished the battle. There is really no spare energy to participate in attacking the stone tablet, especially attacking the stone tablet is not good for the Tuoba Dynasty.
Liu Yan didn't respond. He really didn't want to talk to Yang Yu. The theme of the next negotiation has been set. He doesn't need to say anything in person. It's up to his subordinates to go on.
... split... Cut... Line
There is an outline, but it's really stuck. Honor needs to be stroked. Well, can I ask for a recommended ticket? There may be another chapter today.
