In October, Shi Le, who was stumbling outside Luoyang Pass, suffered successive defeats, and had no choice but to suspend the offensive and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

He frantically transferred 200,000 soldiers and horses from all over the country, saying anything, he also wanted to recapture Luoyang.

Yao Yu also guessed Shi Le's movements, and while Shi Le was deploying troops and horses, Yao Yu was not idle.

He asked his third brother Yao Fan to command 40,000 soldiers and horses in Jingnan to go north, and at the same time, he asked Yao Xin Quanyan to lead 30,000 troops to the west and rendezvous with him in Luoyang.

As for Yao Bao, he continued to contain Guanzhong, while Yong Ju continued to attack Qian County and threaten Shi Le's flank.

In November, reinforcements from both sides arrived, and Yao Yu's 140,000 soldiers and horses fought fiercely with Shile's 280,000 troops outside Hangu Pass.

In this battle, Yao Yu personally put on armor and went into battle, commanded the battle, and barely kept Hangu Pass from being lost.

Yao Yu, who suffered a small loss, was not the master who swallowed his anger, no, that night, he asked his second brother Yao Xin and Wang Xuance, Quan Yan, Quan Yao, Lianghu and other generals to attack Shile's grain storage land.

In this way, the two sides won and lost each other every day, and they fought fiercely for five months.

As a result, the surroundings of Luoyang City are full of corpses and a sea of blood.

Yao Yu, who was still paying attention to the environment at the beginning, hit the back, and he was not in the mood to carefully clean up the body.

After all, under the high-intensity wheel battle every day, who still has this extra energy?

All the forces of both sides are preparing to defeat each other.

Another month of hard fighting, Shi Leman said to take Luoyang City, and even Luoyang Baguan did not take one.

From the fall of Luoyang City to the present, it has been seven months.

In the past seven months, Shile has not achieved an inch, but has lost many soldiers.

He hesitated, hesitated. There was little food in the army, and the soldiers also suffered heavy casualties. There is no point in holding on any longer.

With such thoughts, Shi Le wanted to withdraw his troops, but he was afraid that he would not explain to the people below, so he sighed every day.

It was Prime Minister Zhang Bin who saw Shi Le's concerns, and offered a plan to say that his face was empty, and he had just established the country, and if he continued to fight, the country would collapse.

It is okay to take Luoyang City back whenever it wants, but if it is because of this, the foundation of the country is damaged. The gains will outweigh the losses.

As for whether Yao Yu will go north with the power of a great victory after his own withdrawal of troops, there is no need to worry at all, the reason why Yao Yu did not send troops and horses to attack other states and counties must be because he wants to use the credit of recovering the old capital and plans to go back to seek the throne. In this case, it is better to repair the book to Yao Yu, and the two families will fight.

In this way, you can also stabilize the two states of Yongliang and digest the land you have won over the years.

Shi Le has always believed in Zhang Bin's words. Immediately, he adopted his strategy and sent a handwritten letter to Yao Yu.

There is nothing else in the letter, that is, I can't beat you, and you can't help me. Rather than let the soldiers suffer casualties in vain, it is better for the two families to stop the army. You go back to your business, I'll go back to my business. After you and I are stable, we will determine the winner on the battlefield.

Yao Yu, who saw this letter, couldn't help laughing, and said in his heart that this Shile was really interesting.

Looking at the payment again, Shi Le's words of immortality and unease made Yao Yu laugh heartily, and in the past few months, the bitterness of the spell has dissipated a lot.

In the end, Yao Yu agreed to a truce.

In order to show his sincerity, Shi Le led the army to retreat to Yecheng, but left Wang Yang to lead a soldier and horse to guard the area of Chenliu in Hanoi, strictly preventing Yao Yu from rebelling and taking the opportunity to go north.

In order to show sincerity, Yao Yu did the same, he first asked Yongzhi, who had recovered Qiaojun, to stop marching, and then asked Yao Bao Shen Chenggaokan to stop attacking Guanzhong.

In the end, after leaving Quan Yan to guard Luoyang, the class teacher returned to the court.

This battle, from the beginning of Yao Yu's dispatch of troops to the present, took a total of ten months.

Although it was not as long as the first battle against Li Xiong, the loss of soldiers and horses, and the consumption of grain and grass were far better than the first battle against Li Xiong.

Among them, no less than 30,000 soldiers were killed in the battle, and countless were wounded. The consumption of silver money is afraid that it is two million stones

Above.

Shile didn't know about it, but as an attacker, it should be a lot more than himself.

The war was fought like this, and it was the most tragic battle Yao Yu had fought since his debut.

In fact, Yao Yu thought about it, if Shi Le didn't withdraw his troops, he would continue to consume it with him, who was afraid of whom. It's a big deal, the jade is burned.

If you fight to destroy Shile, you will not harm your descendants.

During the Luoyang offensive and defensive war, Yao Yu thought a lot, he vomited blood every day because of Ziyang Zhenren's curse, and even thought about what he would do if he died in Luoyang.

If it weren't for that, he wouldn't have let Yao Xin and Yao Fan rush to Luoyang, in order to have something happen to him, and the two of them could maintain the situation in time.

Fortunately, now that the battle is over, it should be over.

···

On the tenth day after returning to Jiankang City, officials from all over the country followed Yao Yu's hints and constantly reported auspicious rui in their own jurisdiction.

What kind of wells appear yellow dragons, what kind of unicorns appear in the forest, and so on.

In just one month, there have been more than 100 such auspicious cases alone.

Basically, clear-eyed people know that it is time for Yao Yu to ascend the throne and become emperor.

When Cai learned the news, he was completely relieved, and finally waited for this moment, now it's okay, his mother and daughter, finally don't have to worry about it anymore.

So, the Cai family asked the brothers Xie Kun and Xie Pei to prepare the edict of Zen Rang early, and waited for Yao Yu to act.

And Yao Yu's side, in order to avoid suspicion, can't be too hurried.

Under the leadership of Sima Mao and the Xiahou brothers, hundreds of civil and military officials came to Yao Yu's Song Palace, on the first day of the eighth month, and collectively persuaded them to advance.

In this case, Yao Yu naturally pretended to refuse, saying that the princes wanted to frame Yao Yu and be unjust.

Sima Mao and others don't take it seriously, three times and three times, they all understand this.

So, the second time they brought Sima Bao's edict to find it, but Yao Yu still refused.

The third time, Sima Bao imitated the Han Xian Emperor Liu Xie, set up an altar in the eastern suburbs, fasted and bathed for three days, and finally sent someone to invite Yao Yu, in front of all the people in Jiankang City, in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, Yao Yu sued the emperor Tianhou Tu, and told the people Li Min, from the hands of Sima Bao, took over the jade seal of the country that he sent over, put on a black dragon robe, and brought the twelve crowns. Worship the heavens and call the emperor, look at the north and sit in the south, and ascend the throne and sit in the palace.

The name of the country was the Great Song Dynasty, and the Yuan Kaiping was changed to take the meaning of Taiping.

So far, from the founding of the Jin Dynasty in 266 by Sima Yan to the end of 321, the Jin Dynasty lasted for a total of 55 years. During this period, there were five emperors, including Emperor Wu Sima Yan, Emperor Hui Sima Zhen, Emperor Huai Sima Chi, Emperor Sima Ye of the Abolished Emperor, and Sima Bao of the Later Lord.
