In 352 A.D., that is, on the 13th day of July in the fifth year of Emperor Kaihuang of Wei, Ran Min personally led 200,000 soldiers and horses, including Yulinwei, Xiaowei, Qianniuwei, Wuwei, Shenji Battalion, Pojun Camp, Xuanjia Cavalry, etc., known as 500,000 people, to attack the Jin Kingdom.

The Wei army first divided its troops to recover the three counties of Pengcheng County, Lanling County, and Xiapi County, and then recovered Xiangcheng County, Yingchuan County and other cities in Yanzhou and Yuzhou, and then crossed the Yangtze River and approached Jiankang, the capital of the Jin State.

At this time, Jiankang City was still besieged by the Hu army of Puqing and Yao Xiang, and the news was blocked, and it could not be transmitted to Jiankang City for the time being, but the Hu generals who couldn't stand Xuanwu City were trembling!

"What? Ran Min raised 500,000 troops to attack!? Pu Jing's face turned pale with fright, and he looked at Yao Xiang, who was sinking like water on one side, and said: "What should I do, it seems that Ran Min is determined to destroy Jin!" Yao Xiang, in this critical situation, what should we do? ”

Get up, Yao Xiang and Pu Jing, the two difficult brothers, are really aggrieved.

At the beginning, they were driven out of Guanzhong by Ran Min, and they defected to the Jin Kingdom as a last resort, but now they are good, against the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Ran Min led the army to chase them over, making them like lost dogs, or fighting again and again!

"Pu Jing, you calm down first."

"I ......"

Yao Xiang frowned and said: "Ran Min shouldn't have come to destroy Jin, and besides, his army of 500,000 is extremely watery. Even if Wei really had the strength to attack Jin with hundreds of thousands of troops at every turn, how could Wei send so many soldiers and horses in just over ten days? A protracted war has just ended, Rao is Wei is strong, it is impossible to destroy Jin in one battle, they can't eat a fat man in one bite! ”

"This, Yao Xiang, do you mean that Ran Min is just bluffing?"

"The bluff Ran Min won't make such a big fuss." Yao Xiang sighed faintly and said: "Jiankang has no soldiers to fight, along the Yangtze River, the garrison is even less pitiful, Ran Min does not take the opportunity to pull out the Yangtze River trench in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, he is not Ran Min." ”

"So what are we going to do?"

"Those people in Jiankang City shouldn't know the news that Ran Min has sent troops south, right?"

"It shouldn't be known. We have fenced off Jiankang City, although it is not encircled, but the important city gate has been blocked, and we have a strict investigation in and out, and we will not miss a spy of the Jin army. ”

Yao Xiang shook his head and said, "I'm worried about those cunning warriors in Jiankang City now. These people are like loaches, very sleek, cunning rabbits, I have heard that these people will dig some tunnels in case of emergency! Let's guard against them. Therefore, from now on, while the news has not yet reached Jiankang City, I want you to immediately arrange manpower, within a hundred miles of the entire Jiankang City, except for our soldiers, there is no one who is allowed to be idle! ”

"Good!"

Pu Jing immediately went down to make arrangements.

Yao Xiang is resourceful, and Pu Jing is far from it, but Pu Jing is still a person with brains in the end, so as long as Yao Xiang doesn't go too far and doesn't do things that harm his own interests, Pu Jing can still choose to swallow his anger and cooperate with him.

When Pu Jing retired, Yao Xiang wrote another handwritten letter and ordered someone to send it to Jiankang City.

Naturally, he agreed to accept the appointment of the Eastern Jin Dynasty court, and asked them to send the seal and holy decree here as soon as possible. Of course, Yao Xiang could not be stupid enough to reveal his anxious emotions in the letter, so there is no shortage of general words in this handwritten letter.

After the Hu army surrounded Jiankang City, the imperial court issued a conscription order, requiring the young and strong people in the city to join the army as temporary soldiers to fight against the Hu people outside the city.

This is an edict of the imperial court, and it is an unshirkable matter, and how vicious the Hu people are, Jiankang people have basically never seen it, but they have heard of it!

In the hustle and bustle of the wine shop, a group of drinkers talked about current affairs, and they all became indignant.

Even on weekdays, it is relatively quiet, and the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras is endless, and above the green building, those scholars with lupine scarves have changed their past romance and become heroic!

As the old saying goes: Brothers are on the wall, and they are insulted outside!

On weekdays, they don't care much about fighting against Wei, anyway, no matter who they are under their rule, they have lived their days, but now that the Hu people are calling, they have been listening to how vicious Hu Lu is in others, and they can't let their relatives and friends, and their neighbors be poisoned by Hu Rao!

A man in Tsing Yi waved the fan in his hand, and said with his eyebrows fluttering: "Brothers, my brother is also ready to join the army and fight against the Hu people!" ”

"Huh? Brother Li, aren't you the only son in the family? Master Li is old and has a son, just such a lone seedling as you, is he willing to let you fight with the Hu people? The scholar next to him changed color.

"Humph! If he doesn't agree with me, won't I go? If the country is in trouble, the husband is responsible! I'm a dignified seven-foot man, and I always have no power to tie the chicken on weekdays, but I can still hold the three-foot Qingfeng sword! ”

"Good!"

"Color! ～”

A group of scholars nearby applauded, and one of the handsome scholars said loudly: "Brother Tai, go and beat the Hu people, count me as one!" I have a deep hatred with the Hu people! My family's ancestral home is Jizhou, my grandfather and several uncles died tragically under Hu Rao's butcher's knife, I have long heard how fierce the Hu people are, how brave and good at fighting, but Lao Tzu does not believe in this evil! ”

"That's right! Right! In the past, Taishi Ziyi once left his last words: When her husband is born, he should bring a seven-foot sword to ascend to the rank of son. I didn't follow my will today, but I died! Fighting Wei is a civil war between brothers, we don't want to participate, but to fight Hu, you must take me one! ”

The scholars present were all indignant, and they looked generous and sad.

However, there are impulsive and angry youths, and there are also more rational "cowards".

No, a gentleman said in a loud voice: "Rank, this war is not a joke. I heard that those Hu people were extremely cruel, they never brought grain and grass when they marched and fought, and they all grabbed food and grass after capturing the city! Pu Jing and Yao Xiang's subordinates used to be soldiers of our Jin Kingdom, but they were wild and untamable, and I was afraid that this habit would not be changed. ”

When Hu Rao's army was basically attacking cities in the Central Plains, they killed men when they saw them and captured women when they saw them, and these unarmed people would eventually become their food and grass.

At this point, some of the scholars became angry.

"Afraid of a bird! Mother's Hippie's! The Tsing Yi gentleman's face turned red, and he shouted: "The big deal is a death, and after eighteen years, he will be a good man again!" ”

"Yes!"

"Good!"

A scholar said indignantly: "I often hear the people of the older generation mention all kinds of crimes committed by the Hu people in the Central Plains, which is simply too numerous to mention!" At that time, Wang Jun, the assassin of Youzhou, in order to compete for power and profit, had few people of his own, so he asked the Xianbei Hu people to deal with his enemies. ”

"At that time, when the Xianbei Hu people came, they didn't bring any grain and grass, but robbed tens of thousands of Han women! Then he pressed these poor Han women to go north, you can imagine the fate of these women, and the Hu people first insulted these Han women, and then ate them! I heard that when I arrived in Yishui, more than 10,000 women had more than 8,000 people left, and it was also a burden to carry them, so the Hu people threw all these more than 8,000 people into Yishui and drowned, blocking the flow of Yishui! ”

Hearing these things, the scholars were very upset, and their hearts were very uncomfortable.

But there are many cruelties than this, after the Hu people invaded the Central Plains, the corpses were piled up, and there were corpses all over the ground. The Hu people even made molds for the Hu people to play with. Almost all of these Hu people come from the cold regions of the plateau in the north, and they eat meat when they are hungry, and they will also drink blood to resist the cold!

Han'er in the south has long been holding his breath in his heart.

And this is the difference between the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty!

The Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty, the two dynasties were also peaceful, and they also faced strong enemies in the north, but one dynasty was a minister, and the other dynasty did not call a minister, which should not be reasonable.

At the time of the alternation of the two Jin Dynasty, the Han family crossed to the south, the north was divided, and the south was unified, and it was absolutely impossible to claim the separatist regime with a semi-unified regime.

And the Southern Song Dynasty is facing the unification of the north, the Jin State in its heyday, the Iron Floating Tu, and the kidnapping horse is not afraid? Isn't it strange to be called a minister?

In addition, it is normal that the number of wars after partial security is not commensurate.

After the Jin State conquered Kaifeng, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, he hoped to unify it, so that the heart of the Southern Song Dynasty did not die, and it was rumored that Song Gaozong was even more frightened and infertile on the way to escape, and indeed he never gave birth to a child in the south, and finally the throne had to be passed to the clan Zhao Tuan, although most of the four generals of Zhongxing at that time also carried out the Northern Expedition, but except for Yue Fei, they had little effect.

Yue Fei was deeply suspicious of Gaozong, in order to seek peace, it is not strange to be a minister, right?

On the other hand, after the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Later Zhao Dynasty destroyed the Western Jin Dynasty, the north was in a split and took care of itself, let alone launched a war of aggression in the south? Is it so cowardly to call a minister so cowardly without launching a campaign? It really doesn't make sense.

Similarly, the level of trust that monarchs have in their generals is not the same.

After the Southern Song Dynasty crossed the river, many warlords took advantage of the chaos, and the generals at that time, Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan, took the opportunity to launch a mutiny, put Gaozong under house arrest, and demanded that he surrender to the crown prince (the prince was born before crossing the river), intending to control the government.

Although Zhang Jun, one of the four generals of Zhongxing in the Southern Song Dynasty, calmed down the turmoil, it also made Song Gaozong have a shadow in his heart. Because he knew that when Yue Fei advocated the return of the Second Sage, although his successive victories had greatly strengthened his prestige and power, this forced Gaozong to kill him in Fengbo Pavilion in order to eradicate this threat.

Since then, the Southern Song Dynasty has no generals who have tried their best to go on the Northern Expedition, Song and Jin negotiate peace, and Song is a vassal to the Jin State.

And in the period of history from the end of the Western Jin Dynasty to the beginning of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the two people have to mention, that is, the protagonists who smell the chicken and dance - Zu Di and Liu Kun.

Although Liu Kun had died before the Eastern Jin Dynasty was established, Zu Di's Northern Expedition regained a large area of lost territory, and with such a good general, what could Zhao do about the Eastern Jin Dynasty?

Although Zu Di also cherished his family and country later, which led to death due to grievances, it was still feasible on the whole, not to be killed. What's more, in addition to the support of the scholars in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, although Wang Dun, the powerful minister at that time, was antipathetic, but in the face of foreign enemies, because of the relationship between Wang Dao, there was a high probability that he would have the same hatred for the enemy.

Finally, back to the problem itself, it was the concept of the people's hearts at that time!

The reason why the people of this era have such a reaction is because the Central Plains of China has never been ruled by a foreign race before the Western Jin Dynasty, let alone a minister?

Since the Zhou, Qin, and Han dynasties, the superiority of the Chinese people in their bones is not allowed, and they also think that the meaning of destroying the country and exterminating the species, although there was no such concept at that time, the meaning is roughly the same.

And the Southern Song Dynasty, just like when the Ming Dynasty changed in the Ming Dynasty, many ministers proposed to move south, because there were examples of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty, imitating the old examples. The same is true of the Southern Song Dynasty, precisely because of the experience of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the strength is not as good as others, so it is just a minister, and it will not destroy the country and extinct the species.

Therefore, the difference in people's hearts also caused the Southern Song Dynasty to be called a minister, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty would not be a minister!
