Chapter 44: The Defeat of the Great Army (Ask for Collection Recommendation)
At night, in the palace room, Jia Nanfeng, who had just finished dealing with the government affairs, was about to strip and go to bed, and as soon as he went to bed, he heard Dong Meng outside shouting loudly: "Qi Yu Niangniang, Lu Gong is here." When Empress Jia heard that her nephew was coming, she didn't care about resting, so she hurriedly let the other party in.
Looking at Jia Mi, Queen Jia Nanfeng smiled, "It's so late, Mi'er came here and didn't know what was going on?" I heard today that you didn't go to the court, why did you turn it upside down now?"
Jia Mi pushed the door and said coquettishly as soon as she came in: "Auntie." My nephew went out with his friends yesterday and saw that it was getting late, so he slept in the mountains all night. That's why I came back this afternoon. ”
Jia Nanfeng poked Jia Mi's forehead with his hand and said angrily: "You literati, you know how to drink all day long except for making poems, otherwise you will hide in the barren mountains and wilderness for several days and never return, and everyone calls this elegance." According to the main palace, it is most useless for you to engage in these things. If you look at Zhang Hua and Zhang Maoxian, he can also do poems, his articles are also beautifully written, and he governs the country in an orderly manner. This is called the talent of the prime minister! I hope you can learn more from him, so that you can govern the country in the future. ”
Jia Mi held his head high and said: "I know that my aunt wants me to be the prime minister like my grandfather one day, and I have been thinking about it for a long time these days, being a prime minister must be convincing to hundreds of officials, and if you want to gain the trust of hundreds of officials, the best way is to make contributions to the country." Now that the war in Kansai is tight, my nephew is willing to lead a large army to the west to quell the traitors, so as to prove my ability to the world. ”
Jia Nanfeng was not only not happy when he heard this, but was furious, and turned his face and reprimanded: "You...... Are you crazy?! That's going to war! It's better than going to the mountains and rivers, and if you don't get it right, you're going to die! Don't say that this palace doesn't agree, I'm afraid even your mother won't want you to go to that hellish place. ”
Jia Mi smiled nonchalantly: "Since ancient times, men have drunk blood, and the art of war is 'kill 10,000 enemies and lose 3,000 yourself'." ”
Jia Nanfeng didn't believe that her nephew had any great talents, and she resolutely disagreed to let Jia Mi go to the front line: "This palace didn't say anything about others, it was about you." When others die, they will die, but you are the only seedling in our Jia family's thousands of acres, if there are three long and two short, how can this palace explain to your grandfather? ”
Jia Mi said anxiously: "Aunt is too worried, I am going to command the military, and I don't need to fight with the enemy with real knives and guns." Speaking of this yesterday, all the 24 friends under my command were eager to try. It's all said that Lu Ji will be in charge, Shi Chong and Liu Kun will be the generals, Liu Yu will be the vanguard, and the rest will either be military advisors or strategists, as the so-called has its own useful place. As long as my aunt gives me 100,000 soldiers, within three months, my nephew will be able to sing and triumph. ”
Jia Nanfeng did not hesitate to reject Jia Mi's unrealistic idea: "No! Absolutely not! In addition to this matter, if you change it to something else, it is 10,000 things that this palace can promise you, you must not listen to the nonsense of those friends who drink and meat, and do stupid things. ”
Jia Mi hung her head and said, "I knew that my aunt was reluctant to let me leave." Well, when those fools come back one by one after losing the battle, it's not too late for me to clean up the mess. However, my aunt just said that in addition to this incident, everything else can be promised to my nephew, so should I be straightforward? ”
Jia Hou smiled: "Look at what you said, has this palace ever treated you badly?" For the sake of your palace, even the prince has rushed to the poor countryside, and you don't believe your aunt at this time? ”
Jia Mi said coquettishly: "Oh, aunt, I'm just talking about it, and what I said is related to the prince." ”
Empress Jia was stunned when she heard this, "It has something to do with the prince, you can tell the palace to hear it." ”
Jia Mi was shocked when he heard this, "Okay, I recently met several important people from the Yang family, the Chen family, and the Wang family, and my aunt also knows that since last year, these families have joined my aunt's command. After several children of the family met me, they offered a plan: it was called killing people with a knife. ”
"Oh? Is it? Tell me about it! When Empress Jia heard that she could put the prince to death, she was overjoyed, and the prince Sima Shu had been a sword of Damocles hanging over her head all these years. If there is a chance to get rid of the crown prince, Empress Jia will never give up.
"Yes, several families have already colluded, according to the news from the Xincheng secret agent, since the rebellion broke out in Guanzhong, the prince has to go to the military camp every day to preside over the training, so it seems that the prince will definitely take the initiative to ask for help in the near future. At that time, my aunt only needs to push the boat down the river, and when Sima Shu's kid arrives in Guanzhong, hehe, as long as King Zhao makes a slight move in private, he can be put into a place of catastrophe. ”
Jia Mi smiled darkly, this kid doesn't have a good impression of Sima Shu, after so many years, Sima Shu's words to him back then, "Good dogs don't get in the way" often ringed in his ears. Every time it deepened his hatred for Sima Shu, as soon as the major families showed their intentions, he couldn't wait to agree.
"King Zhao? I'm afraid it won't work, not long ago, the palace just issued an edict to let King Zhao return to Beijing, and I think he should receive a decree here. Jia Hou regretted that she was in a hurry before, why didn't she wait a few more days.
"Back to Beijing? This, this...... Who is the court going to let succeed King Zhao? Jia Mi was also a little dumbfounded.
"It's being discussed, but it's not yet decided. Why don't you just revoke your previous will? Jia Hou was a little hesitant, because doing so was tantamount to slapping the face of the emperor and the court. The most taboo thing in the imperial court is to change the order of the day and night, which will reduce the majesty of the imperial court.
Unexpectedly, Jia Mi's eyes lit up when he heard this, because he thought of a suitable candidate, this person was Sima Wei, the king of Liang who came to visit him a few days ago. Now that King Zhao's return to Beijing is unstoppable, it is better to send King Liang, who has just expressed his loyalty to himself.
"Auntie, there is a candidate for my nephew right now, and it is Sima Wei, the king of Liang. He had just come to my door and asked to be transferred to Guanzhong to suppress the rebellion. It's just that King Zhao was Niangniang's confidant before, and he has been sitting in Guanzhong, and his nephew didn't agree to the other party. But at the moment, it seems that it is better to fulfill King Liang's wish, so that we can still pull it to Niangniang's side. ”
After listening to Jia Mi's words, Jia Hou hesitated a little, "It's just, this...... Is this King Liang credible? This person has no other skills, greedy for money and profit, he was impeached by Zhou, if the palace hadn't let him go, he would have been sent to prison by those imperial historians. Can such a straw bale prince take on such a heavy responsibility? ”
"If he is not confidential and the prince finds out, then the matter will be a big deal."
"Auntie's concerns are right, it is better to give King Zhao a secret decree, let him leave a confidant, supervise King Liang, and be responsible for the implementation of the plan to get rid of the crown prince. In this way, we don't need to tell King Liang the truth of the matter, we just need to let King Zhao's henchmen act in secret. ”
"Well, this is okay, this palace can instruct King Zhao and let him act according to his will."
Jia Mi did everything to plot against the prince, but don't say it, although this kid is not a good person, he has a crow's mouth. Two months later, the news of Guanzhong's defeat came.
With the help of Hao Duyuan, Qi Wannian successively united with Feng Yi, Beidi and other counties of the Qiang, Xiongnu and other Hu people to jointly raise troops against the Jin, killing Zhang Wei, the Taishou of Beidi, and defeating Ouyang Jian, who was too guarded by Feng Yi.
Coupled with the famine and epidemic in Guanzhong, the whole Guanzhong was full of homeless rebellions. In the autumn and August, the Yongzhou Thorn History Jie faction of the new faction of the imperial court was defeated by Hao Duyuan. The people of Qin, Yong, and Qiang responded one after another, pushing Qi Wannian as the emperor, supporting 70,000 troops (one said that there were hundreds of thousands), entering Jingyang (now northwest of Pingliang, Gansu), and deterring Guanzhong.
When the news came, the imperial court was shocked. The ministers asked the court to immediately send troops to suppress it, and at this time, the crown prince Sima Shu, who had not moved for five years, suddenly wrote to the court and asked for his order to go on the expedition. For a while, the court was in an uproar, and there were many discussions, some praised the prince's courage to do things, and there were also a number of princes who were young and did not know the dangers of the soldiers, in case the prince made a mistake, wouldn't it affect the stability of the court?
Sima Shu held back in Xincheng for five years, and for the sake of the New Deal, he almost offended the whole world's families, and therefore came out of the limelight. Sima Shu knew very well that Mu Xiu would be destroyed by the forest wind, so when the new city policy was launched, he didn't go anywhere in the new city, and he didn't pay attention to anything in the outside world.
Five years have passed peacefully, if it weren't for his special identity and being the prince of a country, I'm afraid many people would have forgotten Sima Shu. However, Sima Shu has been waiting, waiting for the opportunity to come out of the mountain again. The current chaos in Guanzhong finally made him wait.
After the news of Qi Wan's army came, Sima Shu convened his subordinates to hold a secret meeting, at which Sima Shu told everyone with great ambition: "At this time, Guanzhong is in turmoil, and the imperial court will definitely send troops to recruit. ”
"Why did this palace go to Guanzhong? To put it bluntly, it is for the eight hundred miles of Qinchuan. As we all know, Xincheng can only be used as the starting point of our career, but not as the foundation for success. Guanzhong is different, since the end of the Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms, Guanzhong has experienced wars, and there is not one in ten local families, which is just right for us to implement the new policy unimpeded. ”
"And although Guanzhong is in ruins, there are millions of people, plus the surrounding ethnic minorities, the population exceeds millions. The hinterland of Guanzhong is an alluvial plain formed by the Wei River, Jing River, Luo River and their tributaries, known as the 'Eight Hundred Miles of Qinchuan'. The Zhou people, the Qin people, and the Han Gaozu all achieved the cause of kingship from this place. ”
"The current situation, you can see more clearly than this palace, there are nomads eyeing the outside of the entire Jin Dynasty, and there are families and princes with different intentions inside, maybe it won't be long before the rebellion of the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty will reappear. In order to revive the Jin Dynasty, the palace had to plan a foundation in advance. ”
"And Guanzhong is the place that the palace fancies, Guanzhong has the Qinling Mountains in the south, the Longshan Mountains in the west, the Loess Plateau in the north, the Huashan Mountain, the Kunshan Mountain and the southwest mountains of Shanxi Province in the east, and the Yellow River surrounds, which can be described as surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the momentum is reunited."
"There are mountains and rivers on all sides of Guanzhong, and several important traffic channels are guarded by the gates."
"The danger of Hangu Pass controls the passage between Guanzhong and the Central Plains; Wuguan controls the danger of the eastern section of the Qinling Mountains, guarding the entry channel in the southeast direction of Guanzhong; The danger of dispersing the west end of the Qinling Mountains controls the traffic throat between Guanzhong, Hanzhong and Bashu; Xiao Pass chokes the danger of Longshan and guards the northwest passage of Guanzhong. ”
"In addition to Sisai, there is also a ferry port, which is also an important passage in and out of the customs, which is Pujin. The main town that guards the Kamazu Ferry is Kasaka. Puban is bordered by the Yellow River to the west. This is a springboard for entering Guanzhong from the state, and it is also a bridgehead for entering the state from Guanzhong. In the future, if we go out to conquer and state the Xiongnu, this is the key. ”
"Lone has been in Taoguang in the new city for five years, and he should also expose the minions of the palace to the outside world, so Lone must first collect Kansai, and then map Xichuan, and after obtaining the two places, he will have the capital to gain a foothold in the world. At that time, even if the world becomes a pot of porridge, this palace has the confidence to reorganize the mountains and rivers and sweep away the heroes one by one. ”
