Huan Wen was a fierce general of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and a newly rising nobleman of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, he was the concubine of Emperor Sima Yan of the Jin Dynasty and the husband of Princess Nankang.

After becoming a concubine, he officially worshiped the history of Xuzhou Thorn, which can be regarded as officially entering the core class of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Because of his meritorious service in destroying the country, Huan Wen was crowned as the general of Anxi, and led the captain of the Southern Barbarians, the assassin of Jingzhou, and the army of Jing, Si, Yong, Yi, Liang and Ning.

Then Huan Wen began the Northern Expedition, although it was unsuccessful, but it also recovered Luoyang, the former capital of the Jin Dynasty.

Constantly gaining military merits gave Huan Wen the ambition to win the highest power.

It's also a coincidence.

In the change of Gao Pingling that year, the gate valve of the scholar clan headed by the Sima family officially came to the forefront.

In order to consolidate his power, Sima Yi massacred the scholars close to the Cao Wei group.

Wang Ling, Wu Qiu Jian, Li Feng and others were all razed by the three clans.

Including Huan Fan, who lamented that Cao Shuang was like a pig and a dog's brain, and was finally accused of false accusation of rebellion and Cao Shuang and others as a party, executed together, and exterminated the three clans.

And Huan Wen's ancestor is the Huan clan of the state of Huan, although he is not of the same clan as Huan Fan, he is barely the same clan, so the three clans of Zhu cannot implicate him.

But this grudge was settled.

Thereafter.

Huan Wen, who went all the way to the pinnacle of power, finally stole the authority of Sima Yi's family and overthrew the Sima family.

Those who steal the country will eventually be stolen.

It seems like fate has played a joke.

Huan Wen can also be regarded as avenging his ancestors......

No doubt.

This one can also be regarded as a hero in the world, Wang Meng once wanted to choose him, but in the end he still did not decide.

At this moment, Huan Wen came to the north of Jingzhou and saw the deserted villages and cities, and the whole person was numb for a while.

What about people??!

There is no one, it's like a ghost town, such a weird scene makes Huan Wen's subordinate generals feel terrified.

"Go check and find out whose handiwork this is!" Huan Wen gritted his teeth and said.

Not long after, the spies under his command who inquired about the news came to report, "This is the handiwork of Wang Meng, the prime minister of Qin!" ”

Hearing this familiar name, Huan Wen raised his eyebrows, and couldn't help but think of the scene of the first time they met that day.

In that year, Huan Wen Northern Expedition, defeated Fu Jian, garrisoned Bashang, Guanzhong fathers and elders competed for wine and meat to welcome labor, men and women gathered in the middle of the road.

At that time, Wang Meng heard the news, wore a linen short coat, and came to the Huanwen camp to ask for a meeting.

Huan Wen asked Wang Meng to share his views on the current situation.

Wang Meng was in the public, catching lice on his body, laughing and talking about the world's major events, talking endlessly, as if there was no one around.

When Huan Wen saw this scene, he was secretly surprised in his heart, so he asked: "I was ordered by the Son of Heaven to lead 100,000 elite soldiers to fight against the rebels and eliminate harm for the people, but no one from Guanzhong Haojie came to me to comfort me, what is the reason for this?" ”

Wang Meng replied bluntly: "You are not far away from the north, Chang'an City is close at hand, but you don't cross the Bashui to take it down, people can't figure out your mind, so they don't want to come." ”

This sentence directly hit Huan Wen's mind, if he captures Guanzhong, he can only get a false name, and the territory will fall to the imperial court.

Therefore, instead of consuming strength and losing the advantage of competing with the imperial court, it is better to raise self-respect and continue to gain the support of the imperial court.

Huan Wen knows very well, what is called a cunning rabbit dead lackey cooking, flying birds are good bow hidden, if he really is dedicated to fighting for the imperial court, and finally expelling the Tartars and recovering China, then his final result will definitely not be good!

Because his merit is too great, there is no seal, no reward, only death!

Therefore, it is clear that the opportunity to expel the Hu people is in front of him, but Huan Wen has never considered it, and has always thought about the situation from the perspective of his own interests.

may also have this reason, in the end, after Wang Meng thought about it again, he did not choose to focus on him.

After all...... Let the homeland be invaded by the Hu people, let the Chinese people be ravaged by the Hu people, but only consider the future gains and losses of their own people, such a person, no matter how strong his ability, how can he be called a hero?

At most, it's just a hero.

Wang Meng at the beginning directly saw through Huan Wen's thoughts.

This impressed Huan Wen, who thought that he was a genius and wanted to keep him as much as possible and let him follow him.

But this Wang Meng didn't choose him in the end, but chose a Hu man!

Monarch of Qin, Fu Jian!

"It turned out to be you, the guy who worked for the thief and served the Hu people......" Huan Wen said with some unhappiness, he had always been angry about Wang Meng's failure to serve himself.

Then he asked a little strangely: "What method did he use to make so many people willing to follow him and move all of them there?" ”

"The thief army is mostly coercion!" The generals under his command said one after another: "The methods of the Hu people are usually very ruthless! ”

"Not necessarily." Huan Wen shook his head slowly: "If it was just simple violence and coercion, there would definitely be no fewer people fleeing, and there would be no fewer people killed, but the scene here is ......"

Huan Wen stared at the scene in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a chill in his back, and muttered: "I feel that these people are like an orderly evacuation, and they have honestly evacuated with the Di army, and there has been no escape and turmoil." ”

"These low-level pariahs are numb and don't know how to resist, that's it." Someone else spoke.

But this reason still couldn't convince Huan Wen.

Subsequently, Huan Wen sent people to check the specific situation of these places.

The result was-

All the peasant tenants, taking with them what they had, carried out a large-scale relocation.

All the landlords and gentry and local clans were all washed away by blood, and almost all of them were wiped out!

"What is he doing?" After Huan Wen saw this information, he couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded.

Shouldn't these landlords and gentry and local clans be an important force for cooperation?

They were all killed by Wang Meng?!

On the contrary, none of those Qiantou were killed?

All the people who took away were the heads of the Qian, and all the people who killed were the gentry!

"Isn't this killing chickens for eggs?"

Huan Wen frowned, a little incomprehensible.

In this world, scholars, capable people, without exception, are mostly these landlords and gentry, local clans, as for those low-level Qiantou, they are not qualified to study, and they have no capital to study.

Reading, this is the right of the clan and the gentry.

Even some heroes from the bottom, such as Wang Meng, are not children of the Qianshou family, he is a down-and-out clan, he is from a poor family, and he has the congenital conditions to study.

Those ordinary low-level people don't even have the qualifications to touch the book!

If you want to govern one side, those local clans, the squire is indispensable, and making good use of them is the key.

However, Wang Meng actually killed all those people.

"Maybe those clan powerhouses are not willing to cooperate?"

Huan Wen pondered, it seemed that there was only this possibility.

Huan Wen naturally didn't know at this moment.

The reason why Wang Meng did this was because of the result of talking to Su Che.

Before the expedition.

Su Che and Wang Meng chatted a lot alone.

Su Che also said a lot, his views on this world, and his views on governing the people.

In Su Che's opinion, even if those local clans and landlords and gentry are killed, it will definitely not affect anything, but will make things smoother.

At that time, Wang Meng asked rhetorically: "But the scholars are all among those people, without them, how can we manage the people?" ”

Su Che said with a smile: "There are too many smart people in this world, even without them, it won't affect anything." ”

"Isn't it true that people who haven't read books are useless and stupid?"

"A smart person, even if he doesn't read, is a smart person, and reading will only make them further sublimated."

"There are too many self-taught people in this world."

"Therefore, if you want to govern the place well, the local clans, the landlords and gentry, including those big families, are not fundamental."

"Although there's no denying that they do work well."

"Their innate advantages are much better than those low-level Qiantou, with them, they can almost quickly achieve governance and stabilize the place."

"But the problem is, once you use them, and you want to get rid of them again, it's impossible."

"They will stick to you forever like an appendage."

"If I can unify the world, my first step is to kill all those so-called families!"

"I will remove all thorns by myself."

"I will never leave these scourges to future generations."

"Kill all those so-called thousand-year-old families, and then carry out national integration to Hu Tuien!"

"That's what I'm going to do!"

Listening to Su Che's grand goal, Wang Meng couldn't help but sigh: "If this is the case, the historians will definitely not write down your good words, they will only think that you are tyrannical, killing too much, and arbitrary!" ”

"So what?" Su Che said indifferently: "My merits, the historian is not worthy of evaluation, these sins are in the contemporary era, and I have done it!" ”

……

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, a year has passed.

Now that it is three points today, Qin occupies the land of Guanzhong, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, plus the Qin army is strong and the national strength is strong, it is obviously not an easy role to deal with.

Eastern jin.

Huan Wen suggested to Emperor Sima Yan of Jin Cheng that he let go of Qin and attack Yan first!

As long as you take the Yan State and get the Central Plains region, it is not too late to turn around and clean up the Qin State in the Guanzhong region.

Emperor Sima Yan of Jin Cheng agreed with Huan Wen's opinion and handed over the military power to Huan Wen.

In April of this year, Huan Wen led a large army to cut down Yan!

When the Eastern Jin Dynasty Xing troops attacked the Yan Kingdom.

The lord of the Yan State immediately sent someone to ask for help from Qin, promising to cut the land west of the Tiger Prison to Qin.

The ministers were all against saving Yan.

In the eyes of this group of ministers, both the Yan State and the Jin State were their opponents.

Now that these two opponents are facing each other, it is a great thing for the Qin State.

Why do you want to help Yan attack Qin?

Wouldn't it be better to wait until these two countries fought to defeat each other?

The so-called, sandpiper and clam compete for the benefit of the fisherman!

It's very simple!

In the eyes of Qin's ministers, they just need to wait.

However.

Su Che, who was on the throne, couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, and he scolded directly: "I said that you are a rat-eyed person, and you are still not convinced!" ”

"You are so short-sighted, so shallow-sighted, it really makes me laugh!"

"Sandpiper and clam compete for fisherman's profit?"

"That's a good thing to say, but how can there be so many opportunities for you?"

"What if the outcome of the war between the Jin Kingdom and the Yan Kingdom is not a defeat for both sides?"

"What if the Jin Kingdom wins successive battles and takes the Central Plains?"

"Then it's going to be a big deal!!"

"You have such a simple idea......

"That's what Sun Quan thought at the beginning!"

"The battle of the world, the lost opportunity, will never be gone."

"I'm so disappointed that you're so stupid!"

Listening to Su Che's reprimand, these courtiers all lowered their heads in shame, and occasionally some were still unconvinced, and they didn't dare to say anything at the moment, for fear of being beaten by Su Che.

Under the court, when Wang Meng heard this, he couldn't help but nodded, and sighed in his heart: "It's really worthy of the monarch I follow......

Su Che took Wang Meng as his general and sent troops to rescue Yan.

Subsequently, the Yan and Qin coalition forces defeated the Jin soldiers, killing more than 40,000 enemies, and Huan Wen fled in embarrassment.

However, when the coalition forces drove out the Jin army.

But the lord of Yan repented and refused to cede those lands to Qin!

agreed on something, but directly reversed.

This undoubtedly made Qin Guo a clown and sent troops to help in vain.

Above the court.

When the envoy told the news.

The courtiers were in an uproar.

Many people condemned Yan Guo's shamelessness.

And some people secretly looked up at Su Che - this meaning is obvious: when you let the snipe and mussels compete for the fisherman's profit, you didn't listen, you had to help Yan, and now people are not even willing to give the promised benefits!

See what else you can do?

On the throne, after Su Che heard this, he couldn't help but smile, he was in a very good mood.

"Interesting, this Murong Country Lord of Yan Country is really interesting." Su Che spoke.

The conquest of a big country like Yan is not like those idle forces, who will fight when they say they will fight.

There's a reason why it's important.

Su Che was just about to make up this reason.

As a result, Yan Guo himself sent the reason.

Su Che dragged his chin and said lightly: "Since this Murong Country Lord of the Yan Kingdom directly broke the contract and was unwilling to cede the land, then don't blame me for being ruthless." ”

"Then raise troops to attack Yan, I not only have to get all those lands, but also a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye, and double the reward!"

"I want to see if the lord of the Yan Kingdom can still find the assistance of the Eastern Jin Dynasty at that time......

That is, in this year, Su Che ordered Wang Meng to be the general and commanded 50,000 troops to fight Yan.

Wang Meng obeyed the order, and then led the Qin army to push all the way and occupy Luoyang, an important town in the western part of the Yan Kingdom.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Meng sent his generals to shoot away Murong Zang, the king of Yan Le'an, out of Xingyang, and then left his troops to guard and return to the west in triumph.

Soon.

Wang Meng attacked Yan again.

This time, Wang Meng took ten generals including Yang An and 60,000 soldiers.

And Murong Ping of Yan led 300,000 elite soldiers to resist the Qin army.

60,000 against 300,000, Wang Meng was not afraid at all, he first avoided its edge, took the South Road to capture Huguan in one fell swoop, captured Murong Yue, the king of Yannan'an, alive, and all the counties he passed were all looking forward to the wind.

Then Wang Meng immediately led part of the army to Jinyang, secretly dug tunnels into the city, and captured the entire city of Jinyang in an instant, and captured Murong Zhuang, the king of Yandonghai.

Then Wang Meng waved his army south, went straight to Luchuan, and confronted Murong Ping.

Before the battle, Wang Meng first sent 5,000 cavalry to set fire to the Yan army's baggage.

In the end, the Yan army was 300,000.

Because Wang Meng's orders were strict, where he passed, the autumn did not commit, the law was simple and the government was lenient, and the Yan people all celebrated and ran to tell each other.

Wang Meng's 60,000 troops at the beginning have now been fighting more and more!

When he arrived at the capital of Yan State, Yan Chen directly opened the door and surrendered.

In just one year, Yan was directly destroyed!

When the news reached the Jin Kingdom......

Up and down the Jin Kingdom, all of them were shocked!

Huan Wen never dreamed that in just a few months, so much land in the Yan Kingdom would be annexed by the Qin State in this way!

There are so many troops in the Yan Kingdom, even if they are a group of pigs, they can't be killed by the soldiers of the Qin State!

It wasn't long ago that he led his army to attack Yan!!

This Wang Meng is too fierce!
