Chapter 39: The Prophecy Comes True

"My lord, I think that the king of Chengdu was also the emperor's younger brother, how it will end, you must also know that if you abandon the two little highnesses and establish the king of Langya, it is really not in line with the ancestral system."

"So you're not optimistic about King Langya?"

"It's not the same thing at all."

"General Zu, I came this time to transfer you back to Beijing."

"Why?"

"Not only you, but even the entire Northern Expeditionary Army will return to Beijing. As for why, you must also know that the Xianbei Murong Clan's attack on our Great Jin Qingzhou is not a good sign. ”

"My lord, don't be afraid, I have already divided my troops and refused, as long as I am given time, I will sweep away Shile and Xianbei Murong and recover the rivers and mountains of the Great Jin."

"However, Xianbei Murong is brave and good at fighting, if you are an enemy of us for a long time, plus Shi Le, I am afraid that your Northern Expeditionary Army will be jointly attacked, and the best way is to withdraw to Jiangnan and give up the northern land to protect the imperial court."

"How could an adult think like that?"

"It's just forced by the situation, which is also what the emperor meant."

"Isn't the emperor seriously ill?"

"The emperor has already explained that he will transfer you back to Beijing before he falls, and your place may be replaced by someone."

"Ahh My lord, we must not repeat the mistakes of the past, how can the territory won by our Northern Expeditionary Army in bloody battles be handed over to others! ”

"So you're disobeying?"

"Without the emperor's decree, it will be difficult for subordinates to obey their fate." Zu Ti said resolutely.

Yu Bing returned in a hurry, and summoned Sima Yue to Jingshi, and as soon as Sima Yan died, he helped him ascend the throne.

Yu Bing saw that Zu Ti couldn't be used for himself, so he decided to get rid of him quickly, replace him with his henchmen, and subdue the Northern Expeditionary Army as his descendant army.

Yu Bing was afraid that things would change, so he encircled the palace guards, removed the officers who did not obey him, and summoned the ancestors back to Beijing in the form of a holy decree!

The eunuch who delivered the decree came back soon, Geng Bing was surprised, and the eunuch said that it was a mysterious loss of the holy decree halfway!

Yu Bing had no choice but to write another copy, but he didn't expect that five or six holy decrees were lost halfway, and Yu Bing thought that someone had secretly stolen the holy decree, in order to prevent Zu Ti from receiving the holy decree!

Yu Bing was afraid that Zu Ti would take action after establishing Sima Yue, so he had to transfer Zu Ti back to Zu Ti no matter what, and kill him!

He thought of a way, that is, to send a military general, disguised as a common man, to sneak to Luoyang, and then officially passed the decree to Zu Ti.

Of course, no one knew that it was Jin Ziyan who intercepted the holy decree halfway, and she didn't want this holy decree to reach him, because in that case, the great cause of the Northern Expedition would be terminated.

Seeing that their efforts were about to be in vain, the Northern Expeditionary Army wept bitterly and grieved.

When Ran Wen arrived at the front line, Yan Jun knew how powerful he was, and he didn't dare to fight with him, but he was fine.

Ranwen's headquarters has 50,000 soldiers and horses, some of whom are hiding from Shile, most of them are Han Chinese, so that one day they can move things smoothly.

Ran Wen felt that the opportunity had come, and he decided to return to Xiangguo City by night.

Ran Wen first summoned the officers to express his meaning: "Brothers, Shi Le is brutal, killing innocents indiscriminately, people and gods are angry, I am willing to raise troops to get rid of him, are you willing to go with me?!" ”

Some officers expressed their willingness to follow, but there were also individual Ran Wen who disagreed, Ran Wen had to draw his sword and kill him, and then gathered all the men and horses to announce their decision, and immediately appeared two camps, the generals led by the Qiang and the Huns did not want to get up, and were immediately killed by Ran Wen's subordinates, and then the whole army rushed to Xiangguo City.

Before dawn, the defenders in Xiangguo City vaguely saw that it was Ranwen Huijun, so they let them in.

Ranwen's men and horses first killed the defenders, and then rushed into the palace of the king, killing people when they saw them, Shi Le's relatives regardless of men, women and children were all killed, and the Shi Le clan was wiped out except for himself in Yecheng.

After Ran Wen did this, he gathered the people of the whole city, but all the people did not dare to obey the order, and some people even spread that Ran Wen wanted to kill the people!

In the eyes of the Qian, Shile's people dare to kill, can they still live, and they have abused the Han people in every way before, and what they are afraid of is liquidating themselves.

Ran Wen ordered people to tell everywhere that no matter whether they were the Xiongnu or the Xianbei people, as long as they laid down their arms, they would never kill a single person, and the common people would not kill a single one indiscriminately, but this still could not stop the fear of the Qiang people, and no one expressed obedience, but was afraid that Ran Wen would kill them, and began to organize spontaneously, and to attack Ran Wen, tens of thousands of people were immediately organized.

When Ran Wen heard that the people were going to kill him, he gritted his teeth and said: "I treat you well, but you treat me like this, don't blame me for being unjust, pass on my military order, and kill without mercy!" ”

As soon as this order was issued, the people who spontaneously organized themselves in Xiangguo City were killed, and the remaining old and weak women began to flee for their lives outside the city.

When Shile got the news, he fainted and died of a few convulsions.

Shi Le didn't believe Chen Xiangshi's words until he died, but he did fulfill them.

As soon as Shile died, the six armies were left without owners, and the Han people in the army began to kill each other.

After Zu Ti withdrew his army, when he walked to the Tiger Prison Pass, he heard about Ran Wen, and he asked the army to go first, let Yunru wait for him at the inn in Jiankang City, and then go to Xiangguo City alone.

Along the way, Zu Ti saw that the people of the Qian and Han people were killing each other, and the north was in a bloody storm, Zu Ti hurried to Xiangguo City, and saw Ran Wen, when Ran Wen knew that he was Zu Ti, he immediately gave him a big salute, Zu Ti said: "Why do you do this big gift?" ”

"Although I respect the general, but this worship is the worship of the Great Jin, I am a Jin person, I have endured so many years, and I can finally take revenge and return to the Jin, please ask the general to present the saint on my behalf."

"Of course you can return to Jin, but there is one thing that needs to be stopped immediately."

"What's the matter?" Ran Wen asked.

"Stop killing, because I know that Shile's army is dead, and all that remains are civilians, and they have no longer threatened, give an order, and whoever kills will be court-martialed!"

"General Zu, all the people I want to kill are the Xiongnu and Xianbei people, is there anything wrong with this?"

"No, I saw on the road that many ordinary Qi civilians were killing each other with the Han people, and there were many of them old and weak women, you have to stop this catastrophe."

"No, General Zu, I didn't really give an order, what I want to kill is only the Shile family and the Qiang people who dare to resist, as for the Qiang and Han civilians killing each other, that's because the Han people have been suppressed, enslaved and ruined for too long, and there is oppression and resistance, why are only the Han people slaughtered! Can we only accept the fate of being killed!? ”

"Ran Wen, no matter what, Shi Strangle is dead, the people can no longer follow in his footsteps, you have to take all the people back to Jin, and Dajin will definitely not treat you badly, with my status, I can protect you as a feudal official, give an order quickly!" Zu Ti said loudly.
