Liu Song Hanque

Chapter 497
It was just an unintentional move by Wang Huilong to send a letter to Gu Bi, but this unintentional move is almost 100% something that can be finalized.

He thought that Gu Bi would come to him immediately to confess his mistake, and he also thought that Gu Bi would write a letter to scold him, but he didn't expect that even the messenger he sent didn't come back.

"Could it be that Gu Bi enthusiastically left those scouts overnight?"

"No, no matter how bad those soldiers are, at least they know that not replying in time is a capital offense."

A terrifying but understandable idea suddenly appeared in Wang Huilong's mind.

That is Gu Bi killed the messenger he sent!
It also means...

Gu Bi really wanted to be with him, no, he broke with Cui Hao?

If Gu Bi made such a decision elsewhere, Wang Huilong would wake up with a smile in his dreams, because this is no longer sending a knife to his side, but sending his head to his side, and there is no need for him to bother Do it!

The issue is.

Gu Bi is now in Yanmen!
Wang Huilong's back suddenly lit up, and a tingling electric current rushed straight from his heels to Tianling Gai, making him jump up instantly in shock.

Gu Bi is not a fool.

Wang Huilong knows this.

He will not break with Cui Hao when he is confronted with enemies on both sides, because that would be his own death.

Unless he has found a strong enough backer who can place him safely and properly.

Who else is this backer besides Liu Song?

If Yanmen falls into the hands of Liu Song...

Wang Huilong's eyes suddenly went dark, and he almost fell over.

He and Cui Hao never thought that Gu Bi would surrender to Liu Song!
Unlike An Tong, whose ancestral home was in Anxi, the Sogdians, Gu Bi was a pure Xianbei!
And he is a Xianbei who seriously hates the Han people!
He couldn't even tolerate Cui Hao and Wang Huilong, so how could he surrender to Liu Song?

In fact, if it weren't for An Jie's "uncle long" and "uncle short" condolences every day, and An Jie's own position in the Song army, Gu Bi might not have surrendered.

An Jie is almost the benchmark Liu Song set up for the Hu people.With that kind of treatment, few desperate barbarians can be indifferent.

But Wang Huilong couldn't care less about these things.

He hastily put on his armor and asked the soldiers to bring the horses: "Assemble! Assemble! Dispatch troops now!"

A lieutenant general was shocked: "General Wang, why is this? Could it be that the Song army in Yunzhong has already been killed?"

"It's not Song Jun!"

Wang Huilong shouted: "It's Yanmen!"

Yanmen?

Everyone else had question marks on their faces, but only a few people's expressions suddenly changed.

"The whole army is dispatched! You can rush to Yanmen!"

Seeing the slow movement of the army, Wang Huilong knew that the situation was urgent, so he hurried to Yanmen with only 5000 people.

These 5000 people were all Han Chinese, and they were regarded as Wang Huilong's cronies, so Wang Huilong did not hide anything on the road, and revealed all the news that Gu Bi might vote for the Song Dynasty to them.

These soldiers were also pale with fright, they obviously understood that if Gu Bi voted for the Song Dynasty, it would be fatal to the Northern Wei Dynasty!

"Don't panic."

Wang Huilong dared to take only 5000 people to Yanmen, so he couldn't be a hardheaded person who wanted to try Yanmen Pass.

"Don't forget, most of Yanmen Pass was built by me under the order of the prime minister!"

Wang Huilong told his subordinates a secret in his heart that he had never revealed to anyone: "I once left a small road leading to the interior of Yanmen Pass in the mountain road in the northwest...Only I know this road!"

"I hope that Gu Bi has not let Liu Song's army enter the pass. If there are tens of thousands of Song troops in the pass... even if there is that trail, it will not help!"

"We must catch up!"

Song army camp.

After receiving Gu Bi's letter, Pei Fangming looked up to the sky and laughed, which made the entire barracks tremble.

"General, is it a happy event?"

"Naturally, it's a happy event!"

Pei Fangming called An Jie, and An Jie also looked excited: "Successful?"

"Success!"

Pei Fangming raised the letter paper in his hand: "Gu Bi promised to sacrifice Yanmen and surrender to our army!"

"This is really, really..."

An Jie's mouth was so happy that the words in his mouth became vague.

The credit for Gu Bi's surrender is so great that it really wouldn't be too much for a Duke.

As one of the planners and executors of the whole plan, it shouldn't be too much for An Jie to be named a Marquis, right?

An Jie couldn't help but smirk when he thought that his title might soon surpass his own Lao Tzu, and at the same time surpass the other four friends in the "Five Tigers".

"Don't laugh, half a hundred miles away. Gu Bi's surrender is not unconditional."

Pei Fangming unfolded the letter and showed it to An Jie: "First of all, Gu Bi asked the emperor to canonize him as Xianbei Khan and allow him to lead the Xianbei tribe to move to Monan, north of Pingcheng."

"Secondly, Gu Bi asked the emperor not to kill Tuoba Tao."

"Finally, Gu Bi hopes that His Majesty can provide some food, books, craftsmen, and go back to Monan with him..."

An Jie's excited smile froze instantly.

these three...

Neither he nor Pei Fangming could agree to any of them.

In the whole world, except for the Son of Heaven, no one dared to agree to these requests from Gu Bi.

Allowing 200 million Xianbei people to return to Monan without damage will undoubtedly leave a huge disaster for future generations.

It doesn't matter if you don't kill Tuoba Tao, if you beat him half to death or lose an arm and a leg, you will be useless.

As for food, craftsmen...

Crazy?

How did the Xiongnu evolve from being hanged and beaten by Li Mu to being able to beat a big man in the early Han Dynasty?

Wasn't it because the Qin Empire transferred all the troops stationed in the Heshuo area to suppress the rebellion, and then Maodun Shanyu, a guy who was smarter than a monkey, accepted everything from the Qin army and let the Xiongnu civilization press the accelerator button, Taking advantage of the melee in the Central Plains at the end of the Qin Dynasty and the beginning of the Han Dynasty, it became bigger and stronger.

With this lesson in mind, who would dare to give their advanced technology to the barbarians?

An Jie looked confused: "These..."

"We can't make decisions about these things."

"Besides, when Xiao Chengzhi retreats, Gu Bi should also react. I'm afraid we can't wait to send the news to Chang'an."

"What does General Pei mean?"

"First lure Gu Bi to let us in!"

The "we" that Pei Fangming said was obviously not a large force of the Song army, and it was impossible for Gu Bi to enlarge the Song army to enter the pass.

An Jie's eyes widened: "General Pei, don't you want to..."

"Yes."

Pei Fangming nodded.

"You and I will bring a small number of soldiers into the pass, and find the right time to take down Gu Bi! Force him to switch!"

"Only when we take down Yanmen, we will be considered accomplished. As for Gu Bi... one person does things and one person is in charge. If he has any resentment in the future, it will be directed at me!"

An Jie cited this method as too simple and crude.

But as Pei Fangming said, the meat that falls into the bowl is the meat, and the Yanmen Pass that falls into the hands is the real Yanmen Pass.

For the sake of Da Song... Uncle Jiantou, you just feel wronged.
