Chapter 0372 - Smell the Chicken and Dance
If Huan Wen is not removed, it will eventually be a big trouble for the widow's henchmen. Ran Min couldn't help but sigh like this.
It is not difficult to see from Huan Wen's deeds that Huan Wen is not only capable, but also very lucky. Although it is not like Liu Xiu, a son of the plane, who can summon meteorites or something, but in terms of luck, people from all over the ages have rarely reached it!
Originally, the Huan clan has been suppressed by the Sima clan, if the Sima clan does not perish, it is estimated that the Huan clan will decline like this until it disappears. But something went wrong in Huan Wen's generation, and his luck was so good that it was against the sky!
It's so good!
Emperor Jin Ming was very ashamed, when he heard Director Wang talk about how his Sima clan bullied Cao Wei's orphans and widows, and then usurped power and seized the throne, he also said with emotion: "No wonder my Sima clan will fall to this, I am afraid that the national fortune will not last long." β
Therefore, Emperor Jin Ming not only did not continue to suppress the Huan clan, but also took pity on the Huan clan who was wiped out by the ancestor Sima Yi.
Huan Wen's luck is really good, at the beginning, he killed the son of his father's enemy with his hand, and killed Jiang Bo's three sons.
Originally, killing people was to pay for their lives, especially since the other party was still the sons of the county magistrate. But Huan Wen's shot won the reputation of filial piety. Among them, there is the reason for the reputation of the Huan family, and naturally Jiang Bo has been doing a lot of evil, and Huan Wen's action is to eliminate harm for the people.
In short, after that, Huan Wen's name gradually spread to people's ears, and his life path began to become broader.
Later, Emperor Jin Ming appreciated Huan Wen and recruited him to be the master of the horse.
As for the battle to destroy the Cheng Han this time, it was even more fortunate to go against the sky.
At that time, he saw that Cheng Han's situation was very bad. The lord of the country, Li Shi, is absurd and unreasonable, and the people below are even more disobedient. The ministers are also intrigued, and there is a downturn in the court. Whether it is the decline of national strength or the weakness of the military, Huan Wen has coveted Cheng Han for a long time.
So Huan Wen put forward the idea of attacking Cheng Han, but his idea was not recognized by many people.
Especially in the central court of the court, he felt that he did not have many soldiers and horses in his hands, although the Cheng Han Dynasty had declined, but the hundred-legged insect was dead but not stiff. But Huan Wen has always had his own rules for doing things, and when he went to the court to play the court, there was no room for maneuver.
It's not so much a book as a notice, so the court is helpless.
However, in this incident, only his friend Liu Yi and Yuan Qiao, who joined the army, supported him.
Sometimes, though, luck is part of the strength!
"Qin Mu, the widow wants to get rid of Huan Wen, what is your plan?"
"King, are you so jealous of Huan Wen?" Qin Mu said with a smile.
"Uh......" Ran Min shook his head and said, "Huan Wen is extremely capable, since he can't be used by the widow, and he is in the enemy camp, how can the widow not be afraid?" β
When Qin Mu heard this, he said with some disapproval: "The king's words are wrong. In my opinion, not only can't Huan Wen get rid of it, but on the contrary, we can give some assistance when necessary. β
"Why is that?"
"The enemy of our enemies is our friends."
Hearing this, Ran Min couldn't help but glare, "Qin Mu, you're not confused, are you?" Will Huan Wen be our friend? β
"Why not? Lord, you must know that you should not only look at the surface of everything. This time Huan Wen became a Han, which did make him famous in a battle, but it would also make him the target of the public and the jealousy of the ministers of the Jin State. β
Ran Min finally came to his senses: "Qin Mu, do you mean that Huan Wen and Sima Yu and Sima Xi will have a disagreement?" β
"Not bad. I believe that the king should know that the battle of Huan Wen to destroy Cheng Han was actually not so smooth at the beginning, at least Huan Wen's recital of the Western Expedition was not approved by Emperor Jin. Huan Wen is so self-assertive, so unsightly, and self-righteous, doesn't it make the rulers of the Jin Kingdom feel jealous? β
"Haha, yes, yes."
Only then did Ran Min remember that Huan Wen was a famous minister in history. Huan Wen once said something that made people feel heroic in the sky.
ββIn the later period, Huan Wen held power, and he was known to be unsubordinate, and he was quite envious of Wang Dun's actions. Once, he stroked his pillow and sighed: "Neither can it be remembered for a hundred years, but it is not enough to leave a stench for thousands of years?" β
You see, this translates to this, since I can't live forever, then what's the point of leaving a stench for 10,000 years?
People who can say this kind of thing are peerless heroes, because Huan Wen's words are comparable to Cao Mengde's famous saying "I'd rather bear others than others bear me"!
Ran Min said: "Hahahaha! wanted to think that Yu Yi died of illness that year, and before he died, he asked his son Yu Zhanzhi to take over Jingzhou, but He Chong, the servant of the auxiliary government, was warm. Danyang Yin Liu Yi thought that Huan Wen was indeed a genius, but he also had ambitions, and he could not let him master the Jingzhou shaped land. He suggested that Sima Yu, the king of Huiji, take Jingzhou by himself, but Sima Yu refused to accept it. Now Sima Yu's intestines may be repentant! β
"Wang, I think Sima Yu should have regretted it. Huan Wen is now the general of Anxi, the assassin of Jingzhou, the governor of Jingsi, Yongyi, Liangning, the military of the six states, and the captain of the Southern Barbarians, and has mastered the military power in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. This time there is the merit of destroying the country, I don't know what the Jin court will use to reward Huan Wen? β
Ran Min said with a smile: "I'm afraid that Emperor Jin's reward will be even worse, and it will become a big tail, although the widow has not seen Huan Wenqi, but from what he did, it can be seen that this person is not a guy who has lived under the people for a long time." Huan Wen sits on the land of several states, and has the power to recruit soldiers and allocate resources on his own, but he is afraid that his ambition will be even greater, and his disobedience will be even worse. However, there is nothing to do in the country, and the monarch and the ministers can still be at peace. β
"What the king said is very true."
Qin Mu lowered his hand and said: "Great King, now that Huan Wen has become a Han, it seems that he has picked up a big bargain, but in fact, it will bring endless trouble to the Jin Kingdom." β
Ran Min seemed to think of something: "Qin Mu, the widow heard that Huan Wen is committed to the Northern Expedition?" Have the ambition of the Yu brothers? β
The minister had also heard a little about this. When Xiao Yu (Yu Yi) was alive, he had a friendly relationship with Huan Wen, and the two agreed to pacify the world together. Yu Yi once recommended Huan Wen to Emperor Cheng and said: "Huan Wen has the talent of a hero, I hope that 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 heavy responsibilities as Zhou Xuanwang's Uncle Fang and Shao Hu, and he will definitely be able to establish the meritorious service of saving the world from difficulties. It can be seen that the relationship between these two people is just like Zu Ti and Liu Kun who smelled the chickens and danced back then. β
"Hmm......" Ran Min bowed slightly, smelling the story of the chicken dancing, presumably as long as he is a Chinese person, he knows a rough idea.
When the Xiongnu nobles were rampant in the north and the Western Jin Dynasty was facing collapse, some ambitious generals of the Jin Dynasty still insisted on fighting in the north. Liu Kun is such an outstanding representative.
When Liu Kun was young, he had a good friend named Zu Ti. In the early days of the Western Jin Dynasty, they worked together in Sizhou (northeast of present-day Luoyang) as the chief bookkeeper, at night, the two slept in the same bed, talking about national affairs, often talking about the middle of the night.
One night, when they were sleeping soundly, the sound of a rooster crowing woke Zu Ti awake. Zu Ti looked out the window, there was a waning moon hanging in the sky, and the east had not yet turned white.
Zu Ti didn't want to sleep, so he kicked Liu Kun with his foot. Liu Kun woke up and rubbed his eyes and asked what was going on. Zu Ti said: "Listen, this is not a bad sound. It's getting us out of bed. β
The two men got up happily, took down the sword hanging on the wall, walked out of the house, and danced in the faint morning light.
In this way, they practiced martial arts and studied the art of war every day, and finally became famous generals.
In the city of Jinyang, houses were burned down, thorns grew all over the ground, and there was desolation everywhere. I happened to see some of the people who stayed behind, and they were already hungry.
Liu Kun felt very sad when he saw this situation. He ordered his soldiers to cut down thorns, bury the bodies, and restore the houses and cities. He personally led his soldiers to defend the city against the attack of the Huns. He also resorted to a strategy to make the various tribes of the Xiongnu suspicious of each other. Later, more than 10,000 Huns surrendered to Liu Kun, and even the Han lord Liu Yuan was afraid and did not dare to invade.
Liu Kun summoned all the exiled people back to cultivate the wasteland. In less than a year, the sound of chickens and dogs barking can be heard everywhere, and Jinyang City has gradually regained its prosperity.
After Liu Cong broke through Luoyang, most of the Western Jin Dynasty's forces in the north were scattered, and only Liu Kun still insisted on fighting in the Bingzhou area. After Emperor Jin ascended the throne in Chang'an, he sent someone to make Liu Kun a general and asked him to command the military of the state.
At that time, Shi Le, the general of the Han State, occupied Xiangguo (in the southwest of present-day Xingtai, Hebei) and gathered hundreds of thousands of troops to seize the state. Liu Kun had Liu Cong in the south and Shile in the north, and he was attacked by the enemy before and after, and his situation was extremely difficult. But Liu Kun was not afraid and did not flinch. He said in a recital to Emperor Jin Chou: "The ministers and Liu Cong and Shi Le are incompatible. If they are not appeased, the minister will never return to the court. β
It is said that when Liu Kun was in Jinyang, once, Jinyang was surrounded by the cavalry of the Huns. There were too few troops in Jinyang City to repel the enemy. Everyone was panicked, but Liu Kun was still calm. In the evening, he ascended the tower and let out a long whistle in the moonlight, and his voice was mournful. When the Hun cavalry heard this, they all sighed with the roar.
In the middle of the night, Liu Kun asked someone to blow the tune of the Huns with a Hu Ji (a musical instrument), which aroused the nostalgia of the Hun cavalry for their hometown, and they were so sad that they shed tears.
When the day was almost dawn, the sound of the head of the city sounded again, and the Hun soldiers ran away automatically.
Later, Liu Kun contacted the leaders of the Xianbei tribe to attack Liu Cong together, but was unsuccessful. Then, Shi Le attacked Leping (now southwest of Xiyang, Shanxi), and Liu Kun sent troops to rescue, but was almost wiped out by Shi Le's elite soldiers who had been ambushed in advance. At this time, the news that Chang'an was captured by Liu Cong came again.
At this step in the field, no matter how tenacious Liu Kun was, he couldn't keep the state, so he had to lead the remnants of the army to Youzhou.
Later, there was the matter of Zu Ti's Northern Expedition, so there is no need to say more.
"Qin Mu, let's just wait and see what happens."
