Chapter 675: King Yan Returns!
(Say it in advance, the book will end tomorrow)
“…… For the way of the king, the people must be saved first, and if the people are harmed to serve their bodies, they will still cut off the shares to eat the belly, and the stomach will be full and the body will die. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info If you are in the world, you must first be right. There is no upright body and shadow, and the upper rule is chaotic. If the imperial court ignores the people, covets its own comfort, and abandons Jianye and goes south, what it does may lose the people's expectations......"
"Lord Zhongshu, what do you mean by that? Could it be that he has forgotten that Huainan has been taken by Yan State? The Yan army's hundreds of thousands of troops are eyeing Jianye, and it is no longer safe for the imperial court and the Son of Heaven to stay in Jianye, why can't they withdraw to Sanwu? ”
"What's wrong with the Son of Heaven going south to avoid his edge? The trend of the world, avoiding the real and hitting the false, but this is the case. I don't know what your thoughts are in Yu Yuangui's plan to oppose the withdrawal of the imperial court? ”
As the leader of the Jiangdong Shi clan, Lu Ye very much hoped that the imperial court would move the capital to Sanwu in order to free it from the control of the northern Shi clan.
"Move the town to another place, the counties along the Yangtze River are equivalent to abandonment, when the northern army goes south and attacks the south bank of the Yangtze River, we will definitely be out of reach, and the Yangtze River defense line is in danger! The hegemony of the Eastern Jin Dynasty is in danger! ”
"For the country and the people, the great one. The technique is the Tao, and the party is the great technique. The first of the great arts, Taoguang is obscure. Ten years of sharpening a sword, out of the sword, a sword to seal the throat. The imperial court temporarily allowed Yan Guo to be rampant for a while, and after we rested, we will definitely level the world in one fell swoop and raise the prestige of the Great Jin. ”
"The way to be a king begins with determination. If you don't have a will, you can't do it. Abandon Jianye today, fear the enemy, how can you get the ambition? ”
"Alright! Don't quarrel with the two of you, you can say something slowly. However, in the following opinion, Jianye is indeed no longer suitable as the capital of the imperial court. Jianye will face the threat of the Yan army's sailors at all times, so it is imperative to move the capital! Let's think about it, where is the court good? ”
Contrary to everyone's expectations, Wang Dao, as the leader of the northern scholar clan, actually stood up to support the relocation of the capital, which caught Yu Liang off guard
Yu Liang was silent with a dark face, and couldn't help but wake up secretly: Could it be that Director Wang wanted to use the Jiangdong family to deal with him in order to regain power in the court? Thinking of this, an imperceptible cold color flashed in Yu Liang's eyes.
In fact, Yu Liang underestimated Director Wang, Director Wang really wants to deal with him, where is the use of uniting others?
To be honest, Wang Dao was reluctant to move the capital elsewhere, but considering the real threat, he believed that it was imperative to move the capital to avoid the peak of the Yan army.
But where to move? The Jiangdong locals wanted Sima Rui to move his administrative office to Wu County or Wuxing County, two of the more powerful Jiangdong native scholars, so that they could compete for dominance from the northern expatriates.
Yu Liang saw that it was imperative to move the capital, and he rolled his eyes and said: "It's not impossible to move the capital, but where should you move to?" ”
"Well, from the perspective of the minister, it is best to move to Huiji County, which is located in the interior of Jiangdong and faces the sea in the east. On land, since the Yangtze River is relatively far away, we have enough room for maneuver and can establish several lines of defense along the way. ”
"No, how can you move the capital? The capital should be moved to Wu County, where the economy was relatively developed, and the ministers of the imperial court would not suffer if they went there. ”
Yu Liang looked at the court hall that was arguing again, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. As a family, how could he not know what kind of virtue a family is? Don't look at the Jiangzuo family just united on the issue of moving the capital, but once it comes to their respective interests, they will also continue to be dirty again.
The Wu Jun family, represented by Gu Lu, Zhu Zhang, hoped that the imperial court would move the capital to Wu County, while the Huiji family represented by Yu Wei and Kong Xie strongly advocated moving the capital to Wu, to put it bluntly, the family would only consider their own interests.
Just when the court was arguing about the relocation of the capital, he saw Ichiro hurriedly entering, and said with a panicked face: "My lords, I just received an urgent report that King Yan has returned triumphantly!" ”
"What?!" Everyone was silent when they heard this.
……
Tongguan as one of the gateways in the Guanzhong, is an important Zhichong Mansion of the Yan State, and there are 3,000 soldiers stationed in the Guan, responsible for guarding this dangerous pass.
In the second year of Taining, in late July, a group of brightly armored cavalry suddenly came from the west along the Guanlong Avenue.
I saw thousands of cavalrymen dressed in fish scale armor and carrying a ring sword at their waists, and the head was the famous guard general Chen An.
The Tongguan garrison moved in his heart, and hurriedly shouted: "All the battalions go out of the city to line up!" ”
The 3,000 soldiers of the government soon stood neatly on both sides of the avenue with their weapons in hand, and several officers stood beside the garrison. The business travelers who were still in and out of the gate knew that there was a big mystery in it, so they stood silently to the side.
The post man in the customs was even more excited, and hurriedly shouted the post guards out to line up. Most of the post soldiers were composed of retired soldiers, and they were quite familiar with the matter of the formation, and they quickly stood in formation under the command of the post officer.
Chen An glanced at the soldiers standing on the side of the road with respectful faces, knowing that they had guessed the identity of his group, so he didn't speak but nodded slightly at the leading garrison, his right arm was across his chest, and he continued to march after giving a military salute.
Soon, another big flag came slowly from the west, and there was a line of big characters written on it - "King Yan"!
King Yan is triumphant! The Tongguan garrison suddenly felt a stirring in his heart, almost out of breath, his whole face was flushed with excitement, and the subordinates next to him were so excited that their hands holding weapons trembled.
In the eyes of the young man surrounded by the cavalry, he cast a pair of eyes to look at the people under Tongguan, and this pair of eyes was warm, majestic, and praised, which made the Tongguan garrison feel hot and dry, and his body trembled involuntarily.
"Salute to King Yan! Welcome the triumphant return of the King! ”
In the sound of congratulations from everyone in unison, Wei Shuo ran towards Luoyang through Tongguan.
King Yan is back! The Western Expeditionary Army has triumphed! The news spread like the wind!
In mid-May of the second year of Taining, Wei Shuo received news that there would be changes in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and immediately set off to return to Beijing. After nearly two months, he finally rushed back to Luoyang when the great change was about to break out. As soon as he came back, he was in the political hall, gathering the civil and military forces of the Yan State to hold a joint meeting of the military and the government.
"Jing Qian is in charge of the Privy Council, let you introduce it first."
"No!"
Gao Zhan was also not polite, and immediately got up and said: "After the death of the Son of Heaven in May, the three towns of Huainan immediately raised troops on the side of Qingjun. Seeing that Huainan was empty, the Cabinet and the Privy Council mobilized troops to cross the Huai River to the south. ”
"In June, under the attack of Yan and Jin, Su, Zu, and Guo were defeated one after another."
"After this battle, the soldiers of the Yan State are on the Yangtze River, looking at Jiangdong, and they can go south to recover Jiangdong at any time!"
Hearing this, everyone fell silent, and looked at Wei Shuo on the main throne with burning eyes. Since the destruction of the Cheng Han Dynasty last year and the subjugation of the Western Regions this year, there is only one separatist force left in the Eastern Jin Dynasty in the whole of China. In the face of the opportunity to take Jiangdong lightly and unify the world, everyone is looking forward to King Yan making a choice!
Unexpectedly, Sima Shao ended up with such a tragic ending, and the courage of the family was beyond expectations. But it also created a good opportunity for Yan Guo to go south, and now Yan Guo should have only one countermeasure: that is, to fight! ”
Listening to Wei Shuo's categorical words, everyone felt excited.
Among them, Mo Han couldn't hold back and said: "What King Yan said is very true, if you don't fight at this time, when will you wait?" ”
"At present, the Jin Kingdom has experienced many civil strife, and it is the time when the strength is the weakest and the people's hearts are the most unstable. Now the Yan State must take advantage of its unstable foundation to send troops to attack the Jin, if the family is pacified inside, it will definitely greatly increase the difficulty of the Yan State to recover Jiangdong. ”
Everyone nodded when they heard this, this is the reason. The family killed Sima Shao and completely occupied a dominant position within the Eastern Jin Dynasty, if the other party was really given a few years, it would definitely be able to stabilize the place, and then there would be no such favorable situation in front of him.
"King, have you ever thought about appeasing Jiangdong?" In the midst of shouting and killing, Pei Wei suddenly proposed to appease.
"What? Someone asked Wen Ji to deliver a message? Wei Shuo said quietly.
"No, it's the suggestion made by the Guozhang who is far away in Jianye!"
Pei Dun, who had been staying in Jianye, saw that the soldiers of the Yan State were approaching the Yangtze River, the Eastern Jin Dynasty was in danger, and he was about to enter the Yan Kingdom. In order not to let outsiders look down on him, Pei Dun thought about appeasing Jiangdong and making immortal achievements.
"How could the Maison be willing to surrender? I'm afraid that the falling flowers are intentionally ruthless! "Wei Shuo is not optimistic about the proposal of appeasement.
"Anyway, you can't delay anything if you give it a try, and you can even buy time for the Yan army to move."
"This ...... Well, let the kunijo try it! Wei Shuo thought that what Pei Wei said made some sense, so he agreed to let Pei Dun try. (To be continued.) )
