"By the way, I forgot to mention that the Governor of the North is currently one of the most powerful men in the Syris, controlling a large part of the territory and army in the North. And it is said that he was only in his twenties, and it was he who led the northern army to defeat the barbarian invasion, put down the rebellion of all sides, and saved the life of Emperor Seris. ”

"Really?!" Hearing this, Sophia didn't know what to think, and suddenly her whole person looked radiant.

"What? Miss Sophia interested in Governor Seris? Oh, I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed, the governor is married, and he has more than one wife. ”

……

As early as July of the fifth year of Jianxing, Sima Bao, the king of Nanyang, united with the northwest Qiqiang, raised troops in the name of the Qing monarch's side, and the troops pointed directly at Chang'an!

After Sima Bao raised the flag, he made an alliance with the leaders of the Di tribe, Fu Hong, Yang Nandi, and Yang Jiantou.

Out of various considerations, the Northwest Zhuqiang gathered under the banner of the King of Nanyang and formed an anti-Chang'an alliance.

After the alliance ceremony, Sima Bao invited Fu Hong, Yang Jiantou, and Yang Nandi to gather in the palace as the leader of the alliance, and was accompanied by Zhang Chun, Yang Ci, Yang Man, Chun Yuding, Pei Xu, Hu Song and other civil and military people in Qinzhou.

"Everyone, please!"

"Your Majesty, please!"

Everyone raised their wine glasses and drank them all, looking at Fu Hong and Yang Nandi on the left, his courage suddenly grew. Since pulling the Northwest Diqiang into his camp, Sima Bao has gradually become complacent, and he has faintly begun to regard himself as the Son of Heaven.

When the wine was hot, Fu Hong, who was tall and handsome and extraordinary, thought about it again and again, and still asked the king of Nanyang: "Dare to ask the king, I don't know if the general of Zhenbei has ever responded to the Qinzhou Flag Raising Alliance?" ”

After Fu Hong joined the Qinzhou Alliance, he was most worried that he would not be able to figure out the position of General Zhenbei and Youzhou Mu Weishuo. Liaodong is powerful and a supporter of Chang'an, if Liaodong clearly expresses its opposition, the future of the alliance can be imagined.

"This ......" The embarrassed look on Sima Bao's face flashed, and he didn't know how to answer.

At this time, he saw that the mastermind Chun Yuding stood up in time to take over the topic, "General Fu, in fact, General Zhenbei did not publicly express his support for Qinzhou, which was expected by us, and this just shows that Wei Zhenbei supports Qinzhou and Qingjun." ”

"Oh? What does Mr. Chun Yu mean by this? Why can't I understand? ”

"General Fu is not in a hurry, and listen carefully! Although General Zhenbei did not explicitly express his support for Qinzhou, he always hated Hu Lu for harming the Jin people. And Shi Le was originally one of the two culprits in the two tragedies of Yecheng and Luoyang, but Taiwei Suo Qi ignored this and blatantly accepted his surrender! ”

"This move has greatly disgusted General Zhenbei, just because Suo Qi is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and Wei Zhenbei has always regarded himself as a loyal minister of the Son of Heaven, how can he openly express his dissatisfaction with the close minister of the Son of Heaven? However, it is an indisputable fact that Chang'an and Liaodong are at odds because of Shile. ”

"How did Mr. Chun Yu know that Wei Zhenbei is dissatisfied with Chang'an?"

"May I ask General Fu, do you know how Liaodong responded when the Son of Heaven issued an order to appease Shile?"

Fu Hong thought for a while and said: "After General Zhenbei learned of this, he immediately ordered Xiangguo to hand over Liu Ji and other remnants of the Huns!" Other than that, no comment was made on the matter of appeasement. ”

"Isn't this the end of it! There was no statement, but it was General Zhenbei who used this to express his dissatisfaction with Chang'an! According to common sense, if Wei Zhenbei had no objection to the imperial court's appeasement of Shi Le, he would definitely write a letter to express his support, and it would be impossible for him to openly force Shi Le to hand over Liu Ji after the holy decree was issued. ”

Therefore, all the signs before and after show that Chang'an and Liaodong have long been inseparable. Therefore, the king and the northwest heroes raised troops on the side of the Qing monarch, as long as they did not harm the safety of the Son of Heaven, and only aimed at punishing the rebel thief, the general of Zhenbei would definitely not be the enemy of us. ”

"Well, Mr. Chun Yu is reasonable, and he has been taught!"

For Chun Yuding's judgment, Fu Hong was convinced, and at the same time secretly cared for Chun Yuding. Before forming the alliance, he didn't take Qinzhou's civil and military affairs in his eyes at all, and only Yang Nandi, the leader of the Di clan, was listed as a potential enemy by him. But now it seems that although the other people in Qinzhou are all wine bags and rice bags, Chun Yuding is worthy of being the mastermind of Qinzhou, which is not to be underestimated.

"In fact, even if General Zhenbei disagrees with Qinzhou's army, he is powerless!"

Yang Man, who joined the army, was quite unaccustomed to Chun Yuding's showmanship, so he also stood up and talked eloquently: "As far as I know, during this time, Liaodong is making every effort to implement the new policy, naturalize the Hu people, and rectify the order of officialdom, and he is very busy. Where is the time and energy to meddle in the Yongqin dispute? Therefore, General Fu does not have to worry about the Liaodong side at all. ”

He laughed very proudly and said, "Although there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the north of Wei Zhenbei, the methods are extremely cruel when Liaodong recovers and annexes the state. For example, on the grounds of commemorating the people killed in Luoyang, he ruthlessly killed more than 200,000 Huns. At the same time, he looted the property of the powerful family of Hedong, and also fabricated a large number of charges against the Wei family in Anyi, and uprooted the Wei family. ”

It was precisely because of its cruel methods that Liaodong had to stop expanding to the surrounding areas and shift all its energy to internal rectification. The minister dares to use the head of Xiang as a guarantee, as long as the internal situation is unstable for a day, Liaodong will not wantonly go out to the outside for a day, and I Qinzhou will not have to worry about Liaodong for a day! ”

Fu Hong and Yang Nandi were originally worried that joining the Qinzhou Alliance would be opposed by Liaodong, but now when they heard Chun Yuding and Yang Man say this, they immediately realized that Liaodong did not have a huge threat as imagined. If Liaodong, which has a lot of strength and a large number of generals, really wants to intervene in the Yongqin dispute, everything that the two of them have painstakingly planned will be in vain.

The Northwest Zhuqiang took the king of Nanyang as the leader of the alliance, and they had their own plans. Yang Nandi watched Hu Lu decline day by day, and was worried that he would become a target in the future, so he wanted to wash away his bad name and become a Jin feudal domain. Fu Hong, on the other hand, intends to take the opportunity to expand his power and save himself.

"The king, the two generals Fu and Yang, although there are various signs that Liaodong has no intention of interfering in the Yongqin dispute, Kechen thinks that it is best to test it just in case!"

When the king of Nanyang heard this, he felt that it made a lot of sense, and hurriedly asked Pei Xu: "I don't know what Pei Cheng's plan is?" ”

Pei Shu laughed, and elegantly saluted the bright-eyed King of Nanyang: "I heard that Wei Zhenbei has always taken it as his mission to drive away Hu Lu and recover rivers and mountains. He once retaliated against Hu Lu for harming the Jin people, and the people everywhere praised him for his love for the people. ”

"Today, the king holds high the banner of condemning Suoqi and expresses strong dissatisfaction with the court's appeasement of Shile, which can be said to be different from Wei Zhenbei's style of acting. The king might as well repair a letter to Wei Zhenbei, praise his exploits in punishing Hu Lu, and then generously ask Wei Zhenbei to ascend to the top and take the position of the leader of the alliance. ”

"If Wei Zhenbei intends to target Qinzhou, he will definitely make a public accusation, and then show his support for Chang'an's attitude, and the king can take advantage of the situation to dissolve the alliance."

"But what if it is intended to be the leader of the alliance?"

Seeing that the King of Nanyang was reluctant to take the position of alliance leader with a painful face, Chun Yuding, Pei Xu, Fu Hong, and Yang Nandi secretly sighed. The king of Nanyang really can't support the wall with mud, in fact, in their opinion, if Wei Shuo really becomes the leader of the alliance, not only Chang'an will not have to worry, but the entire alliance will no longer have any worries.

"The king has filtered, with the current difficult situation in Liaodong, Wei Zhenbei will definitely try his best to resign as the leader of the alliance!"

"Well, what a strategy!" The king of Nanyang was overjoyed, and no longer hesitated at the moment, and immediately wrote an enthusiastic letter to Wei Shuo.

After the news of Qinzhou's raising troops reached Chang'an, it caused an uproar, especially Taiwei Suoqi, who scolded in the direction of Qinzhou. Before, he was on a thousand defenses against Liaodong, but he didn't expect that it was Sima Bao who first raised the flag to invade Chang'an. What's even more odious is that Sima Bao is in the name of criticizing him and comparing him to Dong Zhuo who rebelled in Luoyang at the end of the Han Dynasty.

If the king of Nanyang raised troops and would only make Suo Qi jump to his feet, then the reaction of various places to the Qinzhou Alliance would cost Suo Qi's life. Although Suo Qi took the place of the Son of Heaven to recruit the Sifang Domain to enter the King of Beijing Qin as soon as he raised troops in Qinzhou, except for Xiangguo Shile who expressed his support for Chang'an, whether it was Sizhou Li Ju, Liangzhou Zhang Yu, or Liaodong Weishuo and Xuzhou Zu Ti were all stationary.

In Suo Qi's view, the king of Nanyang united with the Northwest Zhuqiang to invade Chang'an, which should have been condemned by all places. However, the feudal towns in various places actually adopted a tacit attitude towards their rebellious behavior, which made Suo Qi feel a huge panic, as if he saw the moment when the Qinzhou army approached Chang'an.
