Chapter 334: The Great Rebellion Against the Present

Seeing Wang Kai questioning in person, Xie Ai's face was calm and asked him to ask him carefully. Seeing that Gao Yue nodded in agreement www.biquge.info Wang Kai took two steps forward and said loudly: "Xie Junhou's plan seems to be excellent, but it can't be established. Everyone knows that Fuling County is the jurisdiction of Yizhou and the land of Chengguo. Don't say that Chengguo was defeated by our army and will definitely have resentment; Even if there is no suspicion, there is no guarantee that you can borrow from the territory of other countries and go east out of Xiangzhou. Thinking about it the other way, if Chengguo suddenly asks to borrow a way from Weixing County, Liangzhou, to go to the Central Plains, can the king agree? At that time, Li Xiong, the master of the city, resolutely refused to agree, and Xie Jun waited for this plan, isn't it just an empty talk? ”

Xie Ai smiled slightly, without any panic, and replied loudly: "It is true that Fuling is the land of Chengguo. Everyone in the world thought that Chengguo would definitely not borrow from me, but Li Xiong had already agreed to my request to send troops from Youyang. At present, I have secretly assembled an elite of 25,000 men in the west of Youyang City, and I can immediately march when all the military quarters are ready. ”

His voice fell, and the audience was in an uproar. The lord Li Xiong was able to agree to lend the road to the Qin army, I don't know how Xie Ai solved this problem, and most of the hidden affairs are suspected of being involved in foreign affairs. Gao Yue's heart moved, he leaned out, and said with a calm face: "Xie Qing can tell me in detail." ”

Xie Ai bowed down and said: "The minister Zeng Xiushu and Emperor Li Xiong informed the affairs of Jingzhou a little, and made clear our country's position, as well as the decision to send troops to help the imperial court quell the rebellion. The minister bluntly told him that if he agreed to our army to use Youyang, then it would not only enable Qin and Cheng to abandon their previous suspicions, but also promote good-neighborliness and reconciliation and turn hostility into friendship. At the same time, the minister also gave a thousand taels of gold as a ceremony to buy the road......"

Wang Kai suddenly interrupted him and shouted, "Okay, Xie Ai!" In doing so, I am afraid that there is a suspicion of fornicating with the monarch of the enemy country, not to mention the exchange of property! How can it be like a lot of money to give him Li Xiong? Where did you get it from? In the presence of the King and your colleagues, you must make it clear today. ”

Xie Ai's face was as pale as water, he glanced at him deeply, and continued to say to Gao Yue: "The minister and Li Xiong are dedicated to the country, and there is nothing else to do with it. As for the thousand taels of gold, it is not public money, but the various rewards that the king has always given to his ministers. ”

After saying that, Xie Ai bowed down and said solemnly: "There is another matter, which is about to be reported to the king: only money cannot completely eliminate Li Xiong's doubts. And although a thousand taels of gold is not a small amount, how can he really care about these possessions as a monarch of a country? Therefore, in order to make him believe that the minister is sincere, he also sent the big seal of 'Hanzhong Junhou' to Chengdu as a token temporarily, and agreed with him that when I returned to the teacher, I should return it to the end, so I could successfully borrow from him. All of the above has been explained in detail, and he does not dare to hide it from the king, and asks the king to forgive him. ”

Everyone thought about it in their heads, and then they all began to nod, impressed by Xie Ai's unexpectedly resolute determination. Han Yong thought about it again, and after careful consideration, he couldn't help but praise: "...... Coup! This land and water succession, the road down the river, is really beyond the expectations of ordinary people, but it can indeed be surprisingly successful. Xie Junhou is now using troops, and between strategizing, there is great wisdom and courage, and Han admires it. ”

Xie Ai hurriedly thanked him. In the past, when he was in Saibei, he followed behind Han Yong, and he was taught by Han Yong's words and deeds, and he consciously benefited a lot. Now that he has already grown into a famous general, he naturally regards Han Yong as a mentor and a model for his predecessors.

Throughout the ages, many people have tried every possible way to pretend to be public and private, and even have no shame. Hearing that Xie Ai actually used his private savings as public funds, including Gao Yue, everyone was surprised, and admiration arose, and they were even more speechless. As for his determination and courage to be able to use the newly arrived county seal as collateral, this determination and courage are really amazing.

Gao Yue was very emotional, and said loudly: "Xie Qing is loyal to the country, straightforward and upright, and a pure minister!" There is a clear distinction between public and private, how can Lone let the secretary be so spending? Spread the meaning of loneliness, and specially gave Xie Qing 2,000 taels of gold, slightly expressing the praise of loneliness. In addition, in the crusade against Wang Dun, Gu Dang issued an additional 50,000 stone in food and salary and 10,000 reinforcements in advance. And the relevant military, since the Qing family is confident and well-planned, there is no constraint in solitude, and the secretary is entrusted! ”

Immediately, Gao Yue personally repaired three letters. One was sent to Chengdu to express his greetings to Li Xiong, supported Xie Ai's cigna to the greatest extent, and guaranteed him to increase the weight of his words; the second made a capable scout, sneaked to Changsha, and gave Sima Cheng a big reassurance, asking him to hold on, wait for the reinforcements of the Qin Domain, and then attack and eliminate Wei Yi's troops inside and outside; The three sent Pegasus to Jiankang to report to the Son of Heaven, stating that he resolutely responded to the imperial court and attacked Wang Dun's clear position.

Not to mention that with Gao Yue's Taoist order, Qin began to make various armaments. In the blink of an eye, in the second year of Taining (324), on this day, Danyang County, Jiangdong, water and land fortress, outside Wuhu City.

The lead clouds are thick and the wind is cold. On the wide river, the wind and water are cold, and the muscles and bones are more and more piercing. On the river, an endless fleet of majestic ships is anchoring and recuperating. The mast is thick and straight to the sky, and the sails are agitated, and the battle flag hunts and seems to be connected to the horizon. The flagship main ship in the center is a particularly tall stern, with a huge flag waving in the wind on the towering mast, and the word 'king' on it is particularly eye-catching.

On the deck, two classes of wolf-like armor soldiers, armed with spears, looked sideways with disgust. There is a short old man, kneeling in it, raising the black face, full of vicissitudes, the white beard blown by the wind, messy, only a pair of eyes are still clear, not half of the muddy and confused, looking at it, it turned out to be the master Guo Pu.

At the head of Guo Puzheng, there was a person sitting proudly on the big chair. His face is like a powder, his demeanor is extraordinary, but he has no fat, he is close to his sixtieth birthday, and his body is still upright, not angry and mighty. But in the eyes, the black and small pupils were constricted, and the whites of the eyes occupied the full sockets. This person is none other than Wang Dun, the general of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the pastor of Jiangjing Erzhou, and the power of the government and the opposition.

“…… If you follow the following words, Ming Gong's trip should be unprofitable. Guo Puzheng said loudly.

Wang Dun snorted coldly: "My male teacher is out, and the next road down the east of the river is like a bamboo, is it a lie to enter the side of the Qing Dynasty?" At present, it is the trend of all people to make changes, what is not profitable? Because of your divination, I was called a famous man in the world, so I was recruited as a subordinate. Unexpectedly, you are talking such nonsense, is it in vain, or deliberately ruining my morale? I now order you to tell me to live again in person, what is it? ”

Guo Pu shook his head, "No need to do it again." According to the hexagram just now, the good luck and evil are already obvious. If the Ming Duke insists on raising troops, there will soon be a catastrophe, if he reins in the precipice and retreats to Wuchang, he will have a long and infinite life. ”

Wang Dunhuo Ran stood up, his face was as cold as frost, and he said, "What is your lifespan?" ”

Guo Pu slowly raised his head, his face full of sadness and desolation. He sighed, but still replied bluntly: "Today at noon, fate will end." ”

Hearing his words, Wang Dun thought more and more that Guo Pu was arguing in person, and at the same time speaking mockingly, he couldn't help but become more and more angry, and when he waved the sleeves of his robe and ordered the warrior who sharpened his sword Huo Huo, he immediately dragged Guo Pu out and beheaded him.

The sound of horses' hooves on the shore was repeated, and in an instant a guard with an order ran over the sampan, jumped on the boat, and said to Wang Dunyu in person, the court had issued the latest holy decree, and presented it with both hands. Wang Dun's face was expressionless, and he sat down steadily, and took the holy decree and looked at it.

"Wang Dun relies on his favored spirit, dare to rebel wantonly, Fang Zhen Taijia, if he wants to see the prisoner, is it tolerable, who is unbearable? Now he should lead the six armies to punish the great rebellion, and there are those who kill Dun to seal 5,000 households. I don't break my word. ”

Wang Dun raised his eyes and stared lazily at the herald: "That's all?" ”

The herald bowed his head and replied loudly: "General! Your Majesty's will is only a few words. When his subordinates sneaked out of Jiankang, this decree had already been spread to the world. ”

Wang Dun sneered, and his hands slowly kneaded the holy decree into a crumpled ball of waste paper, and pinched it again in his palm, and then there was contempt on his face, and as soon as his arm was raised, the holy decree flew out of an arc in the air and fell straight into the water of the Taotao River.

Qian Feng, a cronie behind him and a member of the army, was not shocked when he saw this, but even sneered several times. I heard Wang Dun say disdainfully: "Hmph, only 5,000 households? It seems that he really still has the strength of Tian Sheweng, and even the reward for the reward is so stingy. What's the matter, what kind of emperor does such a small person be? Wait for me to do what Iho did! ”

The matter of Iho is to depose the emperor. In ancient times, sometimes the courtiers rebelled, and if they were so rebellious, it was not easy to mention it in public, because the great righteousness of the monarch and the ministers was always there, and they always had to worry about the bad influence. But Wang Dun's unscrupulous outspokenness at the moment not only showed his determination to resolutely go to the end of the road of rebellion, but also invisibly released the arrogant atmosphere of stepping Sima Rui under his feet.

Qian Feng is Wang Dun's important confidant and mastermind, his ambition is ambitious, scheming, and he has always wanted to get ahead and be the first assistant. But in fact, he was not born in a wealthy family, and his official position was only remote, so he could only hope to use extraordinary means to seek great wealth. From the time Wang Dun left Jingzhou, Qian Feng kept instigating in Wang Dun's ears day after day, and the content was only two words: rebellion. It can be said that in the history of Wang Dun's rebellion, Qian Feng was not only the driving force behind the scenes, but also the most determined rebel, to some extent, his determination to overthrow the Eastern Jin Dynasty court was even firmer than Wang Dun, and he was indeed the unique number one accomplice. When he heard that Wang Dun's words were not inferior, Qian Feng immediately praised him, saying that the general's righteous deeds and merits were immeasurable, and even Yi Huo could not be compared.
