Chapter 702: Punishment
In the Luoyang court, there was an endless debate.
"Yanghu lost his teacher and humiliated the country, missed the opportunity, and should be beheaded according to the law!" Taizhong Doctor Wang Lan said.
Wang Lan is also from the Langya Wang family, Wang Xiang has the reputation of lying on the ice and seeking carp, and Wang Lan also has the allusion of "Wang Lan fighting for the duck".
The famous "book saint" Wang Xizhi is his great-grandson.
Yanghu wants to behead Wang Rong, but Wang Rong is the heart and liver treasure of Langya Wang, and the two sides are like tearing their faces.
Sima Yan's heart was also full of anger.
Such a good time, 80,000 troops in Yanghu's hands, 30,000 in Xiling, and 50,000 foot cavalry of Sima Ling on the road, while Lu Kang only has 30,000, even if he can't break through Jiangling, at least he can survive until Sima Ling rushes to the battlefield, right?
Sima Yan thought that this battle was nine out of ten, so he got Sima Ling up and brushed up his military exploits.
But in just two months, the war was over.
The Jin army was defeated, and the Bu brothers were wiped out by the three clans......
Sima Yan has only been on the throne for a few years?
What's more serious is that this battle almost wiped out all the military resources accumulated by Jing and Yu over the years.
The strategy of the Jin State first in the south and then in the west was almost declared bankrupt.
On the contrary, the morale of Wu Guo soared, and Sun Hao shouted for revenge in Jianye.
"Since Your Majesty succeeded to the throne, there has never been such a big defeat, if you don't behead the sheep, how can you uphold the law of the country and the hearts of the people?" Xun Miao also stood up at this time.
Xun Miao was originally Cao Shuang's official, Cao Shuang fell, Xun Miao took refuge in the Sima family, and was despised by the times.
The Sima family repeatedly recruited Yanghu, but Yanghu couldn't resign, and was praised by the times.
So Xun Miao has always been secretly jealous of Yanghu.
Now is the time to get down to the ground.
Sima Yan's eyes flickered, and although he was angry in his heart, he also knew that Yanghu couldn't be killed.
First, his reputation is too heavy, and Sima Yan does not want to bear the stigma of killing celebrities and celebrities.
Second, he knows Yanghu's talents, before the battle began, Yanghu repeatedly wrote that the time for the battle of Xiling has not yet come, and it cannot be moved lightly.
But the world is developing too fast, who knows that Sun Hao does not follow common sense, and dares to take the risk of losing his hand in Jingzhou to pierce the window paper.
Lu Kang's efforts to turn the tide under extremely unfavorable circumstances greatly exceeded Sima Yan's expectations.
The discord between the Taishan Goat clan and the Langya Wang clan coincided with Sima Yan's heart of dividing the scholars.
In the blink of an eye, a decision was made in my heart to look at Shibud, but Shibud closed his eyes and fell asleep again.
can only look at Jia Chong visually.
Jia Chong said loudly: "The minister thinks it is impossible, this defeat is due to the lack of preparation of our army, and it was sent in a hurry, although Yanghu is at fault, but the crime is not put to death, and he killed the governor of a town without permission, what do the other towns think?" And victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, may Your Majesty know clearly. ”
Someone came out to give the steps, Sima Yan went down the steps, "That's right, it's better to make the merit work, Uncle Yang will be conscientious after this defeat, you might as well watch the after-effects, and wait for the future." ”
Wang Lan, a man in his sixties, was old and refined, and knew that Sima Yan was unwilling to kill Yanghu, and no matter how much persuasion he preached, it would be in vain, so he remained silent.
"However, the responsibility for the defeat must not go unpunished, Yang Zhao, the assassin of Jingzhou, is brave and unplanned, and he is cut for the people, and Wang Rong, the assassin of Yuzhou-" Sima Yan's gaze turned to Wang Xiang, Wang Lan and others.
Wang Rong has a lot of black material.
During his tenure as the assassin of Yuzhou, he sent his subordinates to build private courtyards, which exceeded the regulations.
This defeat has a lot to do with him, if the Yuzhou soldiers can listen to Yanghu's command, Jiangling may be the first to break through.
"Wang Rong, the assassin of Yuzhou, was demoted to Shanyang Taishou, and Yanghu, the governor of Jingzhou, was demoted to the general of Pingnan, and the governor of Jingzhou was degraded." In the end, Sima Yan still didn't want to offend the Langya Wang family too much.
A bowl of water is flat.
"Your Majesty is wise!" Jia Chong and Xun Miao took the lead in kneeling.
Sima Yan originally didn't have much confidence in the strategy of first the south and then the west.
Unlike Sima Shi and Sima Zhao, what he wants more is to hold on to one acre and three points of land in the Central Plains.
The involution of the Central Plains is all-round, the scholars, the people, even him, the emperor, and there is a Qi king Sima You behind him.
So internal stability is greater than external expansion.
Sima You's momentum has increased day by day in recent years.
Every time Sima Yan interviewed him, he was also respectful, and every sentence was carefully thought out before he spoke.
"Now that Sun Hao is about to enter the Kou, do you have a good plan?" Sima Yan rubbed his forehead.
The defeat of Jingzhou also told the monarchs and ministers of the Jin State a truth, and Eastern Wu still had the strength to fight.
It's not that Sima Yan is afraid of Sun Hao, but he is so glued by Eastern Wu that he can't take his hand to deal with the Qin State.
The Qin State is the enemy of life and death.
The deeper it is hidden, the more frightening it becomes.
In the Jingzhou War, Qin definitely has the strength to get a piece of the pie, but it just doesn't make a move......
The significance is self-evident, they are accumulating national strength and staring at the Central Plains......
"Shouchun, chicken ribs, Your Majesty might as well give up Shouchun, reconcile with Dongwu, and form an alliance to resist the Qin thieves!" Wang Lan is really a Confucian mind.
As soon as the words came out, Sima Yan's face sank.
Since ancient times, cutting soil for harmony has been a taboo.
Especially for people like Sun Hao, he has to inch in, give him Shouchun today, and he will dare to ask for Xuchang tomorrow, and Sun Hao has already made a wild statement that he wants to enter Luoyang.
"This is a curse for the country! If Shouchun is lost, the Wu people's water army will enter Yingshui along the Huai water, and in a few years, the Central Plains will be eroded! "Shi Bao really can't listen to it, and he can't pretend to be able to do it anymore.
"Shouchun must not be abandoned!" Sima Yan said in a deep voice.
Shi Bao is a supporter of the strategy of first south and then west, "The Wu people repeatedly use swords and soldiers, which will consume a lot of national strength, and Shouchun can be the grave of the Wu army!" Heaven has given His Majesty this merit, how can His Majesty refuse to leave the door? ”
"I heard that Sun Hao decided to drive the expedition in person this time!" Jia Chong's pair of triangular eyes were shining.
I didn't take Sun Hao last time, but this time Sun Hao came to send it again.
Sima Yan's face looked much better.
"The minister suggested that Yan Xun, Lian Hong and other generals go south, and be sure to hit the Wu army hard!" Although Shi Bao pretended to be deaf and dumb in the court battle, in terms of military strategy, he was undoubtedly the leader of the dynasty.
The meaning of the words is that don't send a few princes of the Sima family to paste gold.
This time the play is really big.
Sima Yan could naturally understand, and the case started, "This battle should capture and kill Sun Hao!" ”
Inside Jianye City.
Sun Hao was losing his temper, "The old puppet, you actually dare to disobey me, it's the opposite, it's all the opposite!" ”
The old puppet in his mouth is naturally Ding Feng, who has just returned to Jianye.
Sun Hao wanted to go on a northern expedition, but Ding Feng didn't agree, and Sun Hao hit a soft nail.
"Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, how can you be controlled by your courtiers?" No one else dared to step forward, but the Zhongchang servant Cen Duan had no scruples.
Sun Hao's construction and collection of people and women are all his suggestions behind the scenes.
"What do you do?" Sun Hao stared at Cen Du with red eyes.
Cen faintly said: "The right great Sima has fought for the country all his life, and he has also reached the age of retirement......"
Ding Feng is not only the Great Sima, but also the Left Army Division, ranking above the Three Dukes.
Most of Jianye's Wu army were his subordinates.
No matter how tyrannical Sun Hao is, he doesn't dare to rush at Ding Fengyi, if he is a little wrong, he will be the emperor at the end, who can be provoked and who cannot be provoked, Sun Hao still knows it.
The two eyes rolled and shook their heads, "This matter should be slowly figured out!" ”
"Your Majesty is wise!" Cen Du complimented.
