Chapter 0295: Dragons Born Dragons
Regarding whether to send troops to pursue the retreating Zhao army, Yu Bing was a little hesitant.
It is advisable to chase the poor bravely, and not to sell the name of the overlord!
As an excellent commander of the army, as an excellent politician, Yu Bing naturally knows the truth of taking advantage of victory to pursue, but this also contains great risks, after all, poor Kou Mo chases! γ‘ζ°γ€(8)1 Chinese ηΆ²ΟΟΟ.Ο8.1zΡ.cΓ²ΠΌ
Of course, Yu Bing knows very well that the Zhao army has not yet reached the end of the mountain, but the Zhao army has retreated now, and the original rapid momentum has been stagnant!
This military spirit and morale are like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat!
Now the Zhao army has suffered a defeat and is about to retreat, but it seems a little unreasonable to let them flee without pursuing and not taking the opportunity to expand the results of the battle. However, if this is Shi Min's strategy, Yu Bing is jumping into the fire pit with his Jin army!
Yu Bing has been immersed in the government for many years, and has led his troops to win many battles, he knows how to seize the opportunity. However, Yu Bing's virtual reality has not yet been discovered, so Yu Bing does not dare to act rashly for the time being!
And now, looking at the generals in the tent, it is obvious that most of them are in favor of sending troops to pursue, so for a while, Yu Bing can't make up his mind.
"General, please give the order as soon as possible!"
Yu Fangzhi said with a forked hand: "Now that the Zhao army has retreated, not to mention that it fled in a hurry, but the army of more than 100,000 must not retreat for a while." The Zhao army is in the north of the river, close to Huainan, not far from Huaiyin and Hefei, the cavalry is only a day's journey, and they can all enter Huaiyin City in three days if they march in a hurry! Whether it is Huaiyin or Hefei, it is a fortified city that is easy to defend and difficult to attack! β
"General, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Right now, all the soldiers of my Great Jin Dynasty are here, and nearly 300,000 soldiers and horses are at your disposal, the general! Now, the last general only needs 30,000 elite soldiers, no, the general only needs to give the last general 5,000 elite cavalry! The last general will definitely be able to kill the Zhao army and lose his armor and collapse the army! β
"Fang Zhi! Retire! β
Seeing his son speak wildly, Yu Yi glared at Yu Fangzhi angrily, and then scolded.
It's good for young people to be motivated, but if they are so arrogant and so unstoppable, isn't they reckless?
Yu Fangzhi is not inferior to Yu Yi in bravery, but his strategy is insufficient, what is the use of just having blood?
Yu Bing hadn't given an order yet, but asked Yu Yi: "Zhigong (Yu Yizi), what do you think?" β
"General, the last general suggested that the movements and reality of the Zhao army should be investigated first. At present, Zhao Jun has not injured his vitality, and he is still there at all and retreats, I am afraid that there is fraud in it! β
"General, this king thinks that you can't miss the opportunity and let the Zhao army retreat calmly!"
Sima Wuji said in a deep voice: "This is a national war!" A big battle related to the national fortunes of Jin and Zhao! Right now, 300,000 troops of our Jin Kingdom are gathered here, and Zhao Kingdom also has more than 100,000 elite divisions along the coast! Our Jin army is better than the Zhao army in terms of strength and morale, and hundreds of thousands of troops are now gathered here, just to retreat the menacing Zhao army, why bother? β
In the final analysis, Sima Wuji's thoughts were the same as those of many Jin army generals present, unwilling, very unwilling!
Yu Bing glanced at the generals in the tent again, and finally said, "Okay!" Yu Yi listens to orders! β
"The last general!"
"I ordered you to be responsible for the dispatch of all the warships, as well as the dispatch of a cadre of men!"
"Yes!"
"Yu Fang's order!"
"The last general!"
"Order you to immediately lead 8,000 elite cavalry and quickly pursue the fleeing Zhao army!"
"Yes!" When Yu Fangzhi heard this, he was overjoyed and immediately received the military order.
"Huan Wen obeys the order!"
"The last general!"
"Order you to lead the troops and horses of your headquarters to follow Yu Fang's troops and give support!"
"Yes!"
Yu Bing said again: "Ben will sit in the Chinese army and dispatch grain and grass. The soldiers and horses then crossed the river and pursued the Zhao army! β
"Yes!" All the generals sang loudly.
At this moment, on a relatively wide plain, the grass grows and the warbler flies, and a huge team is slowly marching.
At the front end of the team, a large banner with the word "stone" was erected, and the flags on all sides were hunting in the wind, all of which were written with the word "Zhao". That's right, this is exactly where Zhao's Chinese army is.
Looking from afar, from top to bottom, you can see a large number of heads pressed by black, this Zhao army has tens of thousands of horses, the soldiers are stubborn, the war horses are fierce, the spears are like the sea, the battle flags are like clouds, like a steel torrent rushing on the huge plain.
And in the center of the procession, in a huge cart pulled by six horses, Shi Min was squinting and sitting calmly, as if in deep thought.
In the car, a stream of sandalwood wafted slightly, curling smoke.
"The King." Outside the car, Qin Mu galloped over and shouted.
"Is it Qin Mu? Come on in. β
Shi Min opened his eyes and directly let Qin Mu get into his six royal cars.
You know, riding in the same car with the monarch has been a great honor throughout the ages. In the pre-Qin era, monarchs liked corporal Lixian, this kind of thing may be very common, but in the current era of the two Jin Dynasty, which is extremely rare!
When Qin Mu got into the car, Shi Min made him a pot of tea himself, and he didn't close his eyes to recuperate.
And Qin Mu bowed and said, "Great King, as you expected, the Jin army on the opposite side really sent thousands of elite cavalry to pursue it. According to the information sent by the dark department, the leader of these thousands of elite cavalry of the Jin army is Yu Fangzhi, the son of Yu Yi. β
The intelligence network of the shadows is really very powerful.
At that time, Shi Min overrode public opinion and established two intelligence agencies, one was reorganized by the Hanging Mirror Division, and the other was a dark department expanded from Shi Min's original intelligence agency.
Jinyi Wei is inside, the dark part is outside, one inside and one outside, complement each other!
Jinyiwei is in charge of the prison and has the right to patrol and arrest, and has a town and pacification department under it, which is engaged in reconnaissance, arrest, interrogation and other activities. At the same time, Jinyiwei also has the duty to protect the emperor, as the existence of the honor guard, its leader is Jing Zhan.
The dark department is external, integrating assassination and intelligence collection, and is directly responsible for Shi Min, and its leader is Mo Qingwu.
In the foreign war, Shi Min got the first-hand information from the dark department.
"What is the ability of this Yu Fang?"
"No worries." Qin Mu shook his head and said, "Yu Fang's year Fang is weak, from the Yu family, his father is the general of the Jin State Zhengxi and the captain of the Southern Barbarian Colonel Yu Yi, and his uncle is Yu Bing, the general of the Jin Dynasty. Although Yu Fangzhi was born in a scholar family, he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and his courage is extraordinary, but his wisdom is really lacking. β
"Reckless?"
"Yes."
Hearing this, Shi Min smiled faintly and said: "We have an ancient saying in China, called the dragon gives birth to the dragon, the phoenix gives birth to the phoenix, and the son of the mouse will make a hole." Yu Fangzhi is only brave, but he has not inherited the wisdom of his ancestors, which is really embarrassing. β
"What the king said is very true." Qin Mu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "After the Jin family crossed to the south, the Yu family can be said to be the most prominent scholar family except for the Langya Wang clan!" It's a pity that when it comes to his generation, it will decline. The three Yu brothers, Yu Liang, Yu Bing and Yu Yi, are all masterpieces for a while, but unfortunately when they are a hundred years later, there are not many talents who can handle it. β
Shi Min shook his head and said, "There are many people in Jiangnan, and they should not be underestimated. If a Yu clan declines, I'm afraid that there are still Wang's, Huan's and Xie's will stand out from it. β
"Huan's?"
Qin Mu was a little puzzled.
The Jin Kingdom now has three major scholar clans, namely the Langya Wang clan, the Chen Liuxie clan (also known as the Chenjun Xie clan) and the Yingchuan Yu clan. Since the establishment of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Langya Wang clan first took charge of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and then Yu Liang inherited the position of the powerful minister Wang Dao, after Yu Liang's death, his younger brother Yu Bing took over the position of the powerful minister, and Yu Bing's younger brother Yu Yi held the position of Jingzhou Thorn Shi, the most important foreign town official in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
If the Yu family declines, it is the Wang family or the Xie family that is fully qualified to inherit its ruling family, which is reasonable, but what kind of family is the Huan family? Qin Mu hadn't heard of it at all!
The Huan clan originated from Huan Wen's father Huan Yi, Huan Yi is a native of Longkang (now Huaiyuan County, Anhui Province, north of Xilongkang Town), initially served as a cavalry lieutenant under the command of Sima Jian, the king of Qi, and was named General Anton when Emperor Yuan of Jin, and then "tired of moving Zhongshulang, Shangshu Lang, famous court" ("Book of Jin").
Huan Wen is the son of Huan Yi and the son-in-law of Emperor Ming of Jin, who was appreciated by He Chong, the supervisor of the Central Library, and was named the Assassin of Jingzhou and the General of Anxi.
Although the aura of the imperial family shines, Huan Wenneng has a later status, objectively speaking, it is based on real skills.
At that time, the Later Zhao regime in the north and the Cheng Han in the southwest formed an alliance to form a semi-encirclement of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the lesser of two evils, and the destruction of the Cheng Han became the primary goal of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and it was Huan Wen who completed this task, Huan Wen also became famous in the court, and later rose to the rank of Great Sima, and held the power of the court for a long time.
Huan Wen's three Northern Expeditions, although they all ended in failure, objectively played the prestige of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
For the first time, the main opponent was the former Qin regime of the Di people, and they fought until they were in the east of Chang'an, and the Northern Expeditionary Army was very popular, "holding cattle wine to welcome the people who were warm in the road eighteen or nineteen" ("Book of Jin"), but due to the lack of food and grass later, they had to retreat.
The second time, the Qiang army that defeated the Yao clan recovered Luoyang. But then he was repelled by the newly emerging Qianyan Murong Clan.
The third time was to confront the Murong clan of Qianyan, which was unstoppable at the beginning, took the lead, and finally fought in Fangtou (now northeast of Ji County, Henan), and was ambushed by the cavalry of Murong Chui, the general of Qianyan, and returned with a feather.
Huan Wen has the ambition to usurp the Jin room and stand on his own. The defeat of the Cheng Han Dynasty and the three Northern Expeditions were all in order to establish their own prestige, gain political capital, and make preliminary preparations for the final usurpation.
The famous saying of "neither can it be passed on to future generations, nor is it enough to regain the stinky ten thousand years" ("The World Says New Words"), which comes from the mouth of Huan Wen.
Although Huan Wen failed to achieve the goal of usurpation in his lifetime, he established the unshakable position of the family. By the time of his son Huan Xuan, he finally rebelled, forced Emperor An of Jin to take the throne, and established the Huan Chu regime in 404 AD. After the Huan Chu regime was defeated by Liu Yu's Beifu army, the remnants of the Huan family still fought against the Jin family for many years.
The rebellion of the Huan clan also made the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which was already declining, even more crumbling, and was finally replaced by Liu Song.
But now, Huan Wen has just made his mark, although he is appreciated by Yu Liang, but it is far from being able to make Huan grow into such a prominent scholar as Wang, Xie, and Yu!
Yu Yi and Huan Wen have a friendly relationship, and the two meet to calm the world together. Yu Yi once recommended Huan Wen to Emperor Cheng and said: "Huan Wen has the talent of a hero, I hope Your Majesty will not treat him with ordinary etiquette, and raise him as an ordinary son-in-law." He should be entrusted with the same important tasks as Zhou Xuanwang's Uncle Fang and Zhaohu, and he will be able to establish the merit of saving the world from difficulties. β
