The year before Li became Han, Li Shou died and replaced Li Shi as head of the family.
Some of Li Shi's actions are very incomprehensible. After he ascended the throne, he immediately overthrew many of Li Shou's national policies. For example, it was one of his enemies with the Han Dynasty at that time, and then he provoked the Eastern Jin Dynasty one after another. If this alone was not enough to show absurdity, he even sent troops to attack the state of Zhao in Shijie, undermining the long-standing good relations with the state of Zhao in Shijie. He never looked down upon the newly established state of Ran Qin.
There is one thing that Li Shi has followed the national policy of Li's becoming Han Dynasty, that is to maintain friendly relations with Zhang's Liangguo.
Speaking of the friendship between Zhang Liangguo and Li Chenghan, it is based on the fact that the two sides have never been close to each other. We should also talk about the presence of Liu YaoJian, a Hun.
Liu Yao changed the name of the country established by Liu Cong to "Zhao", which was called "former Zhao" in history. Whether Zhang Liangguo or Li Chenghan, they were attacked repeatedly by Liu's former Zhao at the beginning. The two sides uphold the value that the enemy is the friend of the enemy, and have always echoed each other. They have established good friendship through cooperation that has stood the test for many times.
The negotiation between Ran's Qin State and Li's Chenghan basically depended on Zhang's Liang state. Even if Li's Chenghan agreed to take the way, difficulties were still inevitable.
"Isn't there a strong navy under King Han?" Xiao Quan touched his chin, thought for a moment and said, "if only the king of Han could attack Bashu."
No one spoke, and even ran min frowned.
There are enough enemies in the Han Dynasty. The ongoing wars include Yanzhou, Yuzhou and Jizhou. For a newly established country, we can imagine the military pressure.
On the side of the state of Qin, the ran family has not noticed that the competition between the state of Han and the state of Murong Yan in Liaodong has been inevitable. They are purely looking forward to it from their own point of view.
"Either prosper the army and destroy the country, or beat Li Shi for fear." Seeing that everyone looked strange, Xiao Quanjian explained, "Li Shi is a man of luxury and extravagance, and he doesn't look like a British Lord. It can be seen that such people have a weak will. As long as they give a strong blow, they will be subdued."
Jiang Gan said with a wry smile, "the problem is that we are the buyer. We are taking the opportunity to deliver goods. The Han country has no great demand for mutual exchange."
"No!" Xiao Quan patiently explained, "the king of Han still needs something. The state of Han is composed of refugees and refugees. It has a natural advantage over fleeing strong men. As a result, more than 2 million people in the state of Han are mostly young, young and old, and there is a lack of women."
In this way, many people think of many things. For example, in past transactions, the Han country has been looking for more school-age women, and it doesn't care about Hu Han's attitude. It only needs to know that as long as it is a woman who can marry and get pregnant.
The state of Qin of the ran family suppressed in Guanzhong on a large scale. In addition to killing, the captured population was sold to the state of Han. Of course, there was no shortage of women. They knew that they left a trace of face and did not affect the innocent for trading.
Xiao quanman said with deep meaning, "I heard that the state of Dai has repeatedly attacked all parts of the grassland in order to plunder women and trade with the state of Han?"
That's a well-known thing all over the world. Tuoba shiyiqian owed a lot of debt. Tuoba Dai country is a nomadic country. In addition to livestock, it is fur. In order to repay the debt, it is also to obtain ordnance. What else can we do except rob?
Some time ago, Murong Yan state fell out with Tuoba Dai state over the matter of Queen Tuoba Shiyi Qian. Tuoba Shiyi Qian escaped from the war and ran to the West. As a result, he stared at the weak Huns and bullied them severely.
To say that Tuoba paid the most on behalf of the country, it is really the most women. However, the trade route that Murong Yanguo deliberately let out has been broken. Naturally, there is no saying of exchanging needed goods with the state of Han. That is why Xiao Quan said that the state of Han could not attack Li's becoming Han.
"Now, I am the only one who is willing and able to import women into the Han country." Song bin, a waiter of the yellow gate, said to ran Minhang, "maybe the operation is really like what you Puhe Lang said. It is not impossible for the king of Han to attack Shu."
In order to tide over the difficulties, we should try whatever it is. After all, the state of Ran Qin needs assistance more than ever.
Ran min thought for a moment and just wanted to answer. He didn't say anything, but he heard something from afar.
"Good news, great news, king!" Tiaoyou almost danced as he ran, and people came first: "the state of Han has raised its division to the West and entered the state!"
TIAOYU first went to the Han and then to the Jin. Jiang Gan first returned to the Ran's state of Qin, and he returned to the Han.
At first there was silence in the city hall, and then there was chaos.
"Be quiet!" Ran min, with a look of great joy, said eagerly to the panting tiaoyou: "Si Kong, say it again?"
Tiaoyou naturally repeated it again. In the face of Ran min and his colleagues who showed a happy expression, he also ignored his great gasp and added: "it's absolutely true that the king of Han massively increased troops in Jibei County, with General Xu Zheng as his commander, and wanted to enter the state!"
Jibei county is really not far from the Sizhou of the state of Zhao in Shijie. It is less than 400 miles away from the Yecheng where Shi Hu is located. At the same time, it is only 400 miles away from the state of Xiang, the capital of the state of Zhao in Shijie.
Shen Zhong could never speak without talking recently, but now he had to say and asked eagerly, "did the king of Han tell the world?"
"Yes or no." Tiaoyou didn't wait for anyone to ask again, but paused and said, "I didn't announce the whole territory, but I sent orders to all officials."
Ran min thought of something, but his face changed greatly: "Shi Hu... Shi Hu's army is coming?"
All of a sudden, the hall was so quiet that the needles could be heard. All of them, including the ran family and the state of Qin, thought that Shi Hu must gather a large number of troops in Yecheng to cook at Tongguan. The traitor of Ran min's family and state, Liu Yan of the Han Dynasty, would send troops to attack Sizhou. How could it not be that Shi Hu really sent troops westward.
"Not this one." TIAOYU was asked a little confused, and he began to feel wrong in his heart. Subconsciously, he said: "yes, Shi Hu is still in Yecheng, and King Han is marching towards Sizhou..."
It's not that no one wants to think in the direction of Liu Yan's arrogance, and there is no lack of Liu Yan's idea that he may be trying to extricate the Ran's state of Qin, but these two are somewhat unreasonable.
"Don't we get a response when we ask for help..." ran Min said with a confused face: "the king of Han is so friendly... I don't know what to say."
It can be said that the civil and military forces of the ran family Qin state are a little confused. Just because they don't know that the war between the Han state and Murong Xianbei is imminent, the judgment made by the blocking of information will not be clear.
If you don't know why, you will subconsciously be willing to believe it if it is beneficial to your own side. Even if it can't stand scrutiny, it is obvious that Ran's Qin State fell into such a thinking.
Just as Fu Hong used his miscellaneous Hu to constantly win the ran Qin state, Liu Yan's march to Sizhou naturally had its purpose.
In Shijie outside Tongguan, the Zhao army constantly attacked the pass and was driven down. If it happened only a few times, the number of times is enough to prove that even if it really attacked the city of Tongguan, it is difficult to capture it. So can we successfully capture the pass by leading the main force of the Ran's Qin army out of the pass, resulting in a shortage of troops at Tongguan?
Fu Hong is a hu man, but he is not a barbarian. If one strategy fails, he will try another method. He also specially studied ran min's character and found that ran min didn't seem to be a sober person after gaining power.
After a series of studies, Fu Hong thought that ran min was the most likely to forget himself. After communicating with Li Nong, this guess was recognized again.
Just when the kings of the ran Qin State and the civil and military forces thought that things would get better and wanted to start brewing a major counterattack, the people of the state of Zhao in Shijie outside Tongguan also further began their own plot.
"The collected miscellaneous Hu can withstand consumption, but it can't consume miscellaneous Hu completely." Fu An is Fu Hong's younger brother. He is an official and worships the western school captain. He looked at Li Nong and said, "our headquarters will transfer a group of people. Should your department do the same?"
Fu Hong raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Nong. He was annoyed that Shi Hu didn't appoint a master or deputy in Tongguan battlefield.
"Three thousand." Li Nong raised his hand and compared three fingers: "three thousand at most."
When ran min came to Tongguan personally, there was no need to say more about the victory of guarding the city. He led his army out of the pass and won six consecutive victories again. Why did Shijie Zhao army defeat 130000 for six times, and the number of killings should be about 34000?
In other words, Fu Hong is setting up a bureau at all costs, watching them negotiate and continue to consume. Even his own people's lives have to be filled in, just to make the situation look like that.
"I expect to win several more times. Ran min will try to attack the camp." What Fu Hong said was still based on ran min's character. He said darkly: "we'll pull out the camp and retreat before that. He must chase it with inner ecstasy."
The terrain of Tongguan is complex, and the terrain nearby is not very simple. That's something that has been considered at the beginning of the construction of Tongguan pass.
"When the time comes, the banner is displayed. Ran min will not think much when he is anxious. He must catch up with the flag." Fu An looked around the audience and said with great confidence: "we set up ambushes around the forbidden Valley, so that ran min can't come out!"
Tongguan is located in the east of Guanzhong Plain and is located in the key place of Qin, Jin and Henan provinces. The situation of Tongguan is very dangerous, with Qinling Mountains in the south. There are forbidden valleys in the southeast and twelve cities in the south of the valley; There are two rivers of Wei and Luo in the north, the Yellow River embracing the pass and down, and Huayue in the West. It is surrounded by mountains, peaks, deep valleys and steep cliffs. The mountains are high and the road is narrow. There is a narrow sheep's intestines path in the middle, which can only accommodate one car and one horse. In the past, people often compared the importance of the situation here with "fine road insurance and ape competition" and "human road stopping Tongguan insurance".
Fu Hong's Bureau covers a wide range of land. Fu An's "forbidden Valley ambush" is only one of them. The truth is that there is more than one ambush. After all, they all know that ran min is brave and has a hundred battles under his command. It is estimated that it is difficult to kill him once.
Speaking of it, there is no saying that "character determines destiny", but there are still some concepts in cognition. Their plan is based on ran min's character, which is a little like the meaning of "knowing yourself and the enemy in a hundred battles" in Sun Tzu's art of war.
