Hua'an disobeyed the order, continued to lead the troops to attack the Yan army, and easily broke through the Yishui defense line arranged by the Yan army, which caused heavy losses to the Yan army.

Knowing that Hua'an disobeyed the order and led the troops to break through the Yan army's Yishui defense line, the ministers of the imperial court were mixed, but they were more worried, and the good news was that the army of the Great Jin Kingdom was indeed invincible, and it only took less than a month to break through the Yishui defense line arranged by the Yan army's heavy troops, so that the prestige of the Great Jin Dynasty court was greatly increased, but what worried the ministers was that Hua'an disobeyed the order, which violated the will of the imperial court, and was a manifestation of the heart of the disobedient people, and, at this moment, Huan Wen pressed the imperial court step by step, If the Hua'an army continues to penetrate northward, the main army under Huan Wen will no longer be governed, and at that time, Yangzhou will be annexed by Huan Wen, and the entire Jin court will also be under Huan Wen's control, so that Huan Wen will become a powerful minister who coerces the Son of Heaven to order the princes.

In order to cope with Hua'an's continued northward advance, in the main hall of the palace, the Empress Dowager Chu Garlic discussed with several important ministers of the court.

The Empress Dowager Chu Lianzi looked at the ministers and said worriedly: "The king of the south is pressing on the mourning family step by step, and the king of the north is disobeying the order of the north, and the situation in the court is critical at the moment, do you have a good plan for Aiqing?" ”

"The Queen Mother, Yin Thorn History's Northern Expedition to Qing and Yan Erzhou, repeatedly defeated, lost tens of thousands of horses, and the grain and grass equipment are all enemies, and the impeachment of the Southern King of Yin Thorn is also reasonable, if the court repeatedly delays backwards, I am afraid that the Southern King will not agree, with the current situation, for the long-term peace and stability of the Jin Dynasty. The Queen Mother should follow the performance of the King of the South and depose Yin Assassin Shi as a concubine to set an example. A minister clenched his fists and said.

Before Chu Lianzi could respond, another minister hurriedly clenched his fists and objected: "No, never, although Yin Assassin Shi has been defeated repeatedly and his prestige has been damaged, he still has a lot of prestige among the scholars, and he is loyal to the Great Jin court." If the history of Yin Thorn is degraded as a concubine. Then there is no one in the court who can compete with the king of the south, and please think twice about the queen mother. ”

Obviously, although Yin Hao's prestige has been damaged, as long as this person is still there. You can unite the Yangzhou Army. So as to counter Huan Wen's influence on the imperial court. And if Yin Hao is deposed to a concubine, the Yangzhou army is bound to collapse, making it difficult to balance the influence of Huan Wen. Even, in the end, it was bought and annexed by Huan Wen, and then, the entire Jing and Yang prefectures, as well as Jiang, Guangzhou, Jiao and other prefectures, would be placed under Huan Wen's control, and this was almost the entire territory of the Great Jin army before the westward attack on the Shu State.

"The king of the south is pressing step by step, and the reason for impeaching the history of the Yin assassination is extremely sufficient, if he does not depose the history of the Yin assassination according to his requirements, I am afraid that the main army of the king of the south will come to Jiankang City! At that time, the situation will be even more difficult to control. One of the ministers exclaimed.

Obviously, he supported the deposition of Yin Hao, so that the Great Jin court could survive the current crisis.

"Queen Mother, now that the army of the Northern King has arrived in Jicheng, and the Yan Kingdom has already expressed its sincerity in seeking peace, Chen Jian yì once again issued an order to let the Northern Wang's army withdraw from Hebei and return to the south of the Yellow River. Sima Yu, the king of Huiji, said with his fists clenched.

When the Empress Dowager Chu Garlic heard this, she nodded approvingly, and then said: "What Uncle Huang said is that the southern king and the northern king each have hundreds of thousands of troops, and only if they contain each other, it is the blessing of my Great Jin court, however, the mourning family has already made a will, but the northern king is disobedient and disobeyed, and now even if the order is issued again, will the northern king definitely obey the order?" ”

Obviously, Chu Lianzi was very worried about Hua'an's disobedience, after all, Hua'an at this time had hundreds of thousands of troops, and he was no longer the little general who had tens of thousands of troops.

Sima Yu, the king of Huiji, hugged his fists and said: "The queen mother can rest assured, the ministers will personally write a letter to persuade the king of the north, and I believe that the king of the north will definitely take the overall situation as the priority and lead the main army back to the south of the Yellow River." ”

Of course, before making such a guarantee, Sima Yu had already planned, and in order to allow Hua'an to withdraw his troops south, he had been thinking for a long time and came up with a series of methods.

"Empress Dowager Qiyu, the King of the South sent 20,000 sailors to march east along the river, and now, the forward soldiers and horses have arrived in Shicheng." At this moment, the news came that Huan Wen had sent troops and horses to the east along the river.

When Chu Lianzi and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty heard this, they were all surprised, and Huan Wen made such a move in order to put pressure on the Great Jin Imperial Court, so that the Great Jin Imperial Court would immediately depose Yin Hao as a concubine, so as to facilitate his next annexation of the Yangzhou Army.

"Queen Mother, King Nan is impatient, and he should immediately issue an order to depose Yin Assassin Shi as a concubine, otherwise, the disaster of Wang Dun and Su Jun is likely to be repeated." One of the ministers hurriedly said loudly.

"The queen mother, deposing the history of the Yin assassination is a symptom rather than a cure, once the court decrees the derogation of the history of the Yin assassination, it is to bow to the king of the south, and then the king of the south will continue to put forward various requirements, so, in the opinion of the ministers, immediately let the king of the north lead the main army back to the south of the Yellow River, so that the king of the north and the king of the south can balance each other, so that the Jin Dynasty can be permanently peaceful." Another minister clenched his fists and said.

Sima Yu, the king of Huiji, immediately hugged his fists and said: "Queen Mother, the ministers should do their best to persuade the Northern King to withdraw his troops to the south, and ask the Queen Mother to try her best to stabilize the Southern King." ”

Chu Garlic sighed, looked at Sima Yu, and said: "The mourning family will once again issue an order for the Northern King to withdraw his troops to the south, but whether the Northern King can obey the order to go south depends on the imperial uncle." After speaking, he nodded to Sima Yu.

Sima Yu immediately clenched his fists and said: "Although the Queen Mother can rest assured, the minister will do everything possible to persuade the Northern King to obey the order to go south." After saying that, he made a big salute.

Subsequently, Sima Yu immediately returned to the mansion and began to write letters to Hua'an, while Chu Lianzi and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were still in the main hall, discussing how to stabilize Huan Wen, and immediately issued an order to let Yin Hao, who was in Xuzhou, immediately fight a victory to block Huan Wen's mouth.

However, the idea of the imperial court was too ideal, and they asked Yin Hao to win a battle immediately to block Huan Wen's mouth, but Yin Hao is a man of pure talk, and he is not good at fighting at all, it would be good if he didn't defeat the battle, where is the ability to win a battle immediately.

####

On the south bank of the water control, the main army of more than 300,000 under the command of Hua'an has been along the upstream and downstream of the water control, and the posture of attacking and controlling the water has been put in place, and the collection of all kinds of intelligence has also been put in place.

However, through the intelligence collection of the scouts, Hua An and his generals suddenly realized that the situation was not as good as they thought, and the water control defense line arranged by Yan Guo was far stronger than the Yishui defense line, and with the large population of Jicheng as a support, the defensive strength could be said to have been greatly enhanced.

In order to break through the water control defense line and take Jicheng, Hua'an gathered his subordinate generals in the big tent of the Chinese army to carefully study the strategy of forcible crossing.

Hua'an marked the deployment of the Yan army on the north bank of the water on the map in front of him, and at the same time, the layout of the army under his command was also marked on it, so as to facilitate the observation of the situation of the enemy and us, and find out the appropriate offensive strategy.

"Your Majesty, half of the Yan army is arranged along the north bank of the water, and the remaining half of the men and horses are deployed as a reserve force in a slightly deeper position, so arranged seamlessly, I am afraid that it will be difficult for our army to find a breakthrough position!" Wang San looked at the map in front of him and said softly.

Hearing this, Hua An nodded, and said softly: "Yes! Our army's moon array has been cracked by the Yan army, and the use of wooden boats to build a pontoon bridge has also been learned by the Yan army, so if our army wants to break through the water control defense line by surprise, we must come up with a better way. After speaking, he frowned.

Seeing this, Zhuge Xiong hugged his fists and said: "Your Majesty, the water control defense line is abnormally strong, if our army wants to force the crossing, I am afraid that the loss will be huge, at this time, the best way is to have a support army to attack from the north of the water control, so that the water control defense line can be easily broken." ”

Hua An was stunned when he heard this, paused, looked at Zhuge Xiong, and said softly: "General Wang, you mean to contact Goguryeo, Buyeo and other countries in the north of Yan State, and let them attack the back of Yan State, so as to cooperate with our army to break through the water control defense line." ”

"Exactly." Zhuge Xiong nodded and said.

Hearing this, all the generals of the Jin army nodded in approval, after all, if Goguryeo and Buyeo and other forces that had been bullied by the Yan State could attack the Yan State, it would greatly increase the pressure faced by the Yan army, so that the Yan army could not go all out to defend the water control defense line, and then the main force of the Jin army could break through the water control defense line more easily.

Hua An thought for a moment, and said: "Letting Goguryeo and Buyeo and other countries attack the eastern part of Yan can indeed greatly disperse the defensive forces of Yan State, however, Goguryeo and Buyeo will not necessarily agree to the king's request, besides, now that our army is strong and the Yan army is weak, Goguryeo and Buyeo may be worried that once our army defeats Yan State, they will continue to attack and destroy them in the north, so we can't completely count on their help." ”

Hua'an's worries are not unreasonable, after all, the truth of the cold lips and teeth is understood by anyone, the leaders of Goguryeo and Buyeo and other countries, although they are not so great heroes, but these basic truths can still be understood, the last time, the reason why Hua'an sent envoys to contact them is because, that time, the confrontation between the Jin army and the Yan army took place in Zhangshui near Yecheng, the strength of Yan was in an advantage, and the strength of Hua'an was relatively weak, and now, the balance of power has been reversed, The thoughts of these heroes will naturally change.

Seeing that Hua'an's analysis was very good, all the Jin army soldiers were impressed, and from this, they all believed that the bargaining chips of victory should not be pressed on small countries such as Goguryeo and Buyeo, but should use their strong strength to break through the water control defense line.
