Dai Miao is a native of Guangling, and his brother Dai Yuan was Sima Wang, the king of the East China Sea, and helped Sima Pei to cross the river, and supervised the Northern Expedition of Pei and Zu's two armies, but when he retreated, he was killed by Guo Mo with an arrow, and his body sank in the water......

Therefore, Dai Miao has an enmity with the Pei family, and he doesn't want Sima Rui to follow China, and recently instigated him to be the emperor, and his measures are the most exaggerated, and it is estimated that he will follow the example of the sages, holding the sword upside down in front of the city gate and claiming to be dead - but Sima Rui will not go out of the city if he has nothing to do......

Unlike his brother, who used to be a thief and was full of local tyrant habits, Dai Miao was a weak scholar, who was familiar with history when he was young, and was good at literature and military affairs. But even so, he can see that today's Jiankang is like an empty city, and there is not enough self-protection ability at all, so in this case, Sima Rui resolutely refuses to be the emperor, and we can understand his feelings.

So the question is, Wang Maohong, if you are in power, can't you try to solve this crisis?

Wang Di took the opportunity to bring it up: "Why don't you ask the king to summon the middle brother to return to the east and protect Jiankang?" ”

The Langya Wang clan in Nandu is basically all the descendants of Wang Lan, and in the early Jin Dynasty, Wang Yan died in Ningping City, and Wang Cheng was slaughtered by Wang Dun...... Wang Dun, Wang Dao, Wang Bin, Wang Di, etc. are all cousins, and they can't say who is close and who is sparse, so Wang Di suddenly jumped out to summon Wang Dun, although Wang Dao was heartbroken, and looked sideways at this brother, but it was inconvenient to refute it - otherwise, wouldn't it seem that I was too narrow-minded?

Fortunately, someone helped him block the arrows, Ji Zhan shook his head coldly and said: "It's not proper, Wuchang is an important town in the middle reaches, how can there be no generals to guard it?" And even if the king orders to summon my brother, I am afraid he will not come......"

Ji Zhan is the only one here who has really led soldiers and fought battles, so he has been coveting military power. If Wang Dun returned to Zhenjiankang and let him go to Wuchang or Jiangling, then he would definitely raise his hands and feet to agree with this proposal, the question is whether Wang Chuzhong is willing to do it? Wang Dao would rather put the waste Wang Hui on the important task of Jingzhou's assassination history, and never thought of using Ji Zhan.

The reason is also very simple, Ji Zhan is a representative of the Jiangnan Shi clan, and his ancestor Ji Liang's great-grandson Wu is Shang Shuling. Wang Dao is trying to win over the Jiangnan Shi clan and help each other in the same boat, but Wang Dun is not interested in those southern raccoon dogs - for Shen Chong and other heroes who have soldiers and food, it is still worth taking advantage of, and Gu, He, Min, Xue, Ji and other celebrities, Wang Chuzhong has always been only perfunctory.

Wang Dun doesn't like this vote of Nan Raccoon Dog, and this vote of Nan Raccoon Dog still hates Wang Dun - as a son of the family and Princess Zeng Shang, his behavior is so domineering and almost vulgar, with military power in his hands, and he refuses to leak anything to the southerners, so if he returns to Jiankang, can he still have a foothold for us? He must not be allowed to come back!

Besides, even if we pinch our noses and agree to this proposal, most of your Wang Di will have a hot face and a cold ass - if he is willing to return, he will not stay in the "Qingjun side" last time and leave in a few months. This duke has done a good job in Wuchang Tu Emperor, how can he come back to take the position of Wang Dao and clean up this big mess?

When Wang Di heard this, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "It's like this, how can I deal with it?" ”

Wang Bin suggested that he might as well order Wang Dun to send a group of soldiers and horses to help defend Jiankang-"What do you think of Shen Shiju?" ”

He Xun, Xue Jian and the others shook their heads one after another. Wang Dun wanted to leave a group of soldiers and horses in Jiankang before, and it took them a lot of effort to reorganize and collect a small number of them, and most of them found excuses to drive Wuhu, how could they tolerate Wang Chuzhong holding the military power in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River at the same time? Will anyone be able to cure him then? Maybe even Director Wang will have to stand aside!

As for Shen Chong, he is indeed a southerner, and he could have high hopes. The problem is that this thing is willing to be a dog for Wang Dun, and he was completely pinched in the palm of Wang Dun's hand by Wu Xing Zhou before, how likely is it that he will deviate from Wang Dun and get closer to the Jiankang regime, or at least allow him to stick to it?

It was not until after the banquet that Director Wang would take out the tea set and make tea for the guests and friends to drink, Zhuge Hui seemed to suddenly remember: "Su Jun came from the south, and his troops were stationed in Xin'an and Huiji, which may be for me...... Is it used by the state? ”

When Ji Zhan heard this, he twisted his beard with his hand, groaned slightly, and said: "Maybe it can be used, it just depends on how the country appeases him." ”

Zhou Yi said: "Su Jun was originally the old department of the Chinese master, but because he was difficult to control, he was forced to rebel, and he was defeated and crossed to ......the south." If it can't be restricted, how can it be appointed? ”

Director Wang was still pondering, and before he could reply, Zhuge Hui smiled and said: "Su was in Qingzhou before, and he was arrogant in his own territory, but he was delusional, which caused the anger of the Chinese lord; Now that he is coming from the south, his subordinates are all northerners, like duckweed following the water, without any foundation, what is it difficult to restrict? Now put it in Huiji and Xin'an, it is useless, and it consumes grain and straw in vain, so it is better to summon Shou Jiankang. As long as you give kindness, you will be grateful; If you provide them with food and straw, you will be afraid of power, so what is there to worry about? If you dare to have two hearts, but you order it to crusade against it and cut off its supply and loss, you will be defeated. ”

Ji Zhan bowed his head and said: "What Daoming said is reasonable. If you don't worry about Su Jun, you don't have to summon him to Jiankang first-you can make Su Jun garrison in the lake, Ma Xiongtun soldiers Dantu, east and west arch to defend Jiankang City, if you encounter a police, you can gallop to help within three days. Mao Hong and others can then conspire, first reuse Ma Xiong, cut off Su Jun's arm, and then use Ma Xiong to restrain Su Jun, these more than 10,000 northern soldiers, no need for half a load, or can be used by the country. ”

——————————

Su Jun, Ma Xiong and others have had a very difficult time since they crossed to the south.

Originally, they were almost divided in Qingzhou, although the county guards were often perfunctory and refused to supply grain and materials, but no one dared to offend the tiger's might; When the army is defeated and crosses to the south, if you send someone under the fence, you have already planned to be low and small, but who would have thought that even if you pretend to be honest, you will still have a slap in the face all day long......

When the river was first crossed, it was originally stationed in Xuancheng and Biling, and the east and west guarded Jiankang, but Deng Yue felt that it was dangerous, so he admonished Wang Dun, so that Jiankang and the two high-ranking officials were Houlu, and at the same time, on the grounds that the grain and straw in the counties along the river were insufficient, they were ordered to lead their troops south, Su Jun was stationed in Xin'an, and Ma Xiong was stationed in Huiji.

As a traitor to the Chinese Dynasty, Su Jun knew that the possibility of his return was quite low, and now the only one he could rely on was the Jiankang regime. Therefore, his desire to defend the Jiangfang and resist the southward movement of the Chinese is very strong—stronger than many Jiangzuo generals—and how can he be willing to defend Xin'an for a long time, and wait for it to be idle and scattered?

Besides, the southern soldiers are far inferior to the northern soldiers in terms of number and quality, whether it is Jiankang or Wuchang, who is not greedy for the thousands of people under his hands? Unless he is in a critical place, once he leaves, the river defense will not be guaranteed, and the disaster will be imminent, otherwise the army will be annexed sooner or later; And if he loses his military power, he will surrender to others, without roots and foundation, will he still have a good end?

In addition, the officials of Xin'an were more high-minded and low-handed than the Qingzhou guards in the past, not only refused to supply Su Jun's grain and materials on time, but also sent his soldiers to repair the city, build forts, and even pave roads and open canals, and regarded them as engineering teams! It's just that Su Jun has two lives, and it's not like when he was in Qingzhou, with Wang Gong and Wei Xunken reaching out to help, he can only be a man with his tail between his legs for the time being - I'm afraid that if this tail is clamped for a long time, even his edges and corners will be completely smoothed, and his ambition will be completely ruined!

However, he was not the worst, Ma Xiong was forced to go south to Huiji, and the situation he encountered was only more dangerous.

The Jiankang regime worshiped Su Jun as the champion general, the history of Xuzhou Thorn, and the cavalry was a regular attendant, and he was named the prince of Shaoling County, while Ma Xiong was only a general of Anji, the internal history of Liyang, and the general Lehou. The rank of general is virtual, the official position is only a remote leader, and there is actually no size of the land, and as for the marquis ...... since the "Rebellion of the Eight Kings", he has rewarded people with knights, and there have been "(Sima) Liang Marquis thousands, (Sima) Lun Marquis thousands" The words, to Sima Rui can not be outside, there are marquis all over the ground, what kind of garlic can you Ma Xiong fill?

The key Huiji County is near the sea, and the local forces are already very strong, but in recent years, they have been instructed by Pei Gai to carry out sea trade, so that farmers benefit from poverty and merchants become rich. When the peasants were poor, they were forced to depend on the big households, and the rich merchants were actually equal to the big households, so the manors in the county were numerous, each with arms, and Ma Xiong was completely unprovoked.

Moreover, there are still some southward migrants in Xin'an County, Su Jun can still talk to people, Huiji County is a water of Nan Raccoon Dog, even if Ma Xiong wants to be reasonable, the language is not clear, who will come to you?

Originally, at the beginning of crossing the river, Ma Xiong may not have had the delusion of breaking away from the Soviet Union and becoming a family of his own, but after being hit by this, he still had to send someone to show loyalty to Su Jun - in fact, he was holding together for warmth - and asked for a plan. Su Junnai instructed him to bribe the way in order to persuade the Jiankang regime to put the Northern Army in the important place of Jiangfang - only when the position is important, others will not dare to despise us anymore, and then wantonly trample on us, slowly, we will have a chance to turn over.

In fact, these two northern armies fled south in a hurry, and a lot of soldiers and weapons were abandoned on the road. Therefore, it was difficult for Su Jun to open up the situation in Xin'an County, but unexpectedly, Ma Xiong was summoned by Zhuge Hui, the shou of Huiji County, before he could raise bribes.

Zhuge Hui was originally from Langya Yangdu, his grandfather Zhuge was born in Huainan, attacked and killed by Sima Zhao, and his father Zhuge Liang was Nantou Dongwu, and he was the great Sima. After Wu's death, Zhuge Liang hid in his eldest sister's house and did not come out, Sima Yan personally went to his eldest sister's house to look for it, saying: "It doesn't mean that we will see each other again today." Zhuge Liang sobbed and said: "You can't paint your body and leather surface, and you can see the holy face again...... but you stubbornly resigned from your duties in the service, returned to the township, and never sat in the Jin court for life.

Why does Sima Yan look down on Zhuge Liang so much? Because the husband of Zhuge Liang's eldest sister is Sima Ling, the king of Langya, that is, Sima Yan's uncle and Sima Rui's grandfather, and Sima Yan and Zhuge Liang also had a relationship because of this relationship when he was a teenager.

As a result, Zhuge Hui was able to eat all the things between the south and the north - Yu Bei was the in-law of King Langya, revived the Langya Zhuge clan, and Yu Nan was the son of the late Wu Da Sima, and the old friends of the Tong family also grabbed a lot of them. He first served as the magistrate of Jiqiu County and the commander of Linyi County, and later entered the Sima Rui shogunate, and then crossed to the south, and made great contributions to the pacification of the southerners, and was re-appointed as the county guard of Huiji.

Langya County is in the north of Xuzhou, although Ma Xiong is a native of Qingzhou, he first followed Su Jun to guard Xu Fang, attacked Cao Wei in the north, and was very familiar with the situation in Langya County, so Zhuge Hui summoned him to ask about the situation in his hometown, and Ma Xiong took the opportunity to cry Chen Zhongjin's ambition to serve the country, which won Zhuge Hui's favor and provided him with some supplies.

Zhuge Hui served as the county guard of Huiji for three years, and his political achievements were the first in the counties - God knows - but he was recalled to Jiankang, and he was not entrusted with heavy responsibilities. Wang Dao took the opportunity to feast on the guests and friends, wash the dust for them, and discuss state affairs by the way.

Zhou Yi and others raised doubts about this-it is difficult for a rebel general to be trusted after all-but Ji Zhan and others wanted to take the opportunity to seize this northern army, so they echoed Zhuge Hui's words and repeatedly persuaded Wang Dao. After much thought, Wang Maohong finally agreed, that is, he asked Sima Rui to issue an edict to let Su Jun Beitun be in the lake and Ma Xiong to be stationed in Dantu.

At that time, Yu Liangfang was ordered to go out to inspect - he had been worried about the river defense - he climbed Siwang Mountain and Stone Mountain, overlooked the river, and re-planned to build a stone city, thinking that it was an important gateway to guarding the river, and stayed outside the city for several more days. When he returned to Jiankang, he learned the news of summoning Su Jun and Ma Xiong to the north from his brother Yu Yi, and couldn't help but be taken aback, so he hurried to see Wang Dao and persuaded him:

"Su Jun descended to people, his heart is unpredictable, he must be placed in an idle place first, slowly temper his nature, and the country can appoint him - what Deng Boshan (Deng Yue) said before is right. If he suddenly summons him to go north to protect the river, he knows that the country's hopes are strong, and if he sees the river's air defense again, he will be arrogant, and I am afraid it will be difficult to control.

"And its department is all northerners, who doesn't miss their hometown? Once Su Jun is defeated, it will be difficult to control, once it is placed on the riverside, if the Chinese Yin comes to appease them, they may cross the river one after another and flee, how can they return to the country's soldiers? If the prince shouldn't listen to Zhuge Daoming's words, how can he also be a scholar, how can he inquire about important military affairs? ”

Director Wang pondered for a long time, nodded slowly, and said, "What Yuan Gui is worried about is also reasonable. It's just that now Jiankang is empty, and if there is no guard on the river, Su Jun and others have to be summoned to the north...... And Fang ordered that if it was stopped, I am afraid it would be inappropriate. ”

Yu Liang said that I have a plan - "I can repatriate the envoys to the south, on the grounds that the grain and straw still need to be dispatched, and the camp still needs to be prepared, so that Su Jun will be stationed in Danyang (county) first, and Ma Xiong will be stationed in Jurong first, and not Linjiang." I will build more stone towns, and send hundreds of thousands of soldiers to help them, and promise that the whole army will be stationed in the city by the construction of the city—but I may take the opportunity to annex its army silently, and make it owned by the state; Even if they can't take all their troops, they can be reorganized, so that Su Jun and the others don't dare to be delusional. ”

Yu Yuangui's plan is very vicious, if this plan is made from the beginning, as long as there are no leaks in the implementation process, maybe it can really successfully capture these two northern soldiers. But the problem is that the former edict has just given Su Jun a ray of light, but he set off for less than two days, and he was ordered to stop at Danyang County first, Su Zigao couldn't help but be disappointed, and it was inevitable that he would be suspicious.

Immediately, Yu Liang presided over the construction of the stone city, and asked Su Jun and Ma Xiong to send 500 soldiers to help the work, promising that after the construction was completed, the gateway to the north of Jiankang would be handed over to you to guard. Su Jun was overjoyed when he heard this—Stone Town is really important, and Lao Tzu in this defense area is willing to accept it—so he asked for an additional 2,000 soldiers to go.

- I have a shortage of grain and straw here, and you don't distribute it according to the regulations, so I can't even eat the chaff. Why don't you send more soldiers to Stone Town, since you should always take care of the food, and I need to reduce the pressure here.

However, people pushed back and said, only saying that so many people could not be crowded into the construction site. Su Jun couldn't help but be annoyed, and said in his heart that he would be stationed in the fortress of Wanzhong in the future, but he had just started construction, and he had a foundation, but he even said that he couldn't squeeze in 2,000 people - if you want to prevaricate me, please find some reliable reason?
