Chapter 14 The Initial Kanto Territory
Chapter 14 The Initial Kanto Territory
When I passed through Huashan, the fourth uncle launched a final onslaught against Guo Huai. After Mr. obtained Luoyang and drove Sima Yi to Nanyang, he also began to attack Guo Huai's troops who were still under siege.
Although Guo Huai is also an excellent general, it is really not something he can afford to deal with with a super luxury lineup like Zhao Yun Pang Dejia Kong Ming. Every day, the artillery and crossbow arrows hit the Wei army so that they could not raise their heads, the city gate was broken, the city wall was cracked, and the corpses of the Wei army were in disarray. Rivers of blood. In fact, as early as the night of the Luoyang fire, Guo Huai found out that something was wrong, he was frightened at the time, and he just wanted to go out of the city to save it, but he knew that it was too late. I thought again, Zhuge Liang is wise, this may be Ji Han's plan again, deliberately burning the wasteland in the wilderness to trick himself out of the city. It's good to gather and annihilate yourself outside the city. But not long after, the news came that Luoyang City was broken, and Sima Yi's 60,000 or 70,000 elite soldiers were lost by more than half, and he barely broke out of the encirclement, fled to Nanyang, and went to join Xu Huang. Hearing this news, Guo Huai, who has always been strong, almost fainted. Sima Yi left. What to do yourself. Hangu Pass is the west gate of Luoyang, and now the courtyard has become someone else's, what can this gate do? But it's too late to leave. Not to mention that Zhao Yun and Pang De attacked the city day by day, no matter how fast he walked, he couldn't be faster than Zhao Yun and Pang De's cavalry troops. Even if you go, which route can you take? It's been occupied by Ji Han everywhere. was hesitating, and the Han army had blocked the east and west sides of Hangu Pass. This Hangu Pass is like a person's throat and eyes, and it is a thin valley road. One wall on both sides, it is difficult to fly with wings. Hangu Pass is known as a strong pass, extremely strong, but if it is to deal with the general army, but Ji Han has been doing so many years of experience, and he doesn't know where to get so many siege weapons, in front of them, this strong city wall is simply vulnerable. It's like nothing. Attacking to a critical place, Ji Han got a huge catapult pulled by dozens of oxen, which could throw hundreds of pounds of boulders onto the city wall, and when it went down, the city wall collapsed a large area - I later learned that this thing was going to be sent to Luoyang, but it was not sent to Luoyang, and they were sent here nearby. But where can I afford to eat?
Ji Han fights for a day. Propaganda for a day, let Hangu Pass surrender. Ensure the personal and property safety of the military and civilians in the whole country, otherwise, no one will be spared. Guo Huai worked hard, gritted his teeth and insisted, and at first he thought that even if Ji Han was strong, he should stick to it and maintain his integrity. But when he was halfway down in the city, he began to waver. And at this time, Ji Han announced that whoever can capture Guo Huai and surrender can be rewarded with 10,000 dollars and seal the Neihou. At this moment, Guo Huai felt that the eyes of everyone around him were wrong, and they secretly looked at their eyes, as if they were looking at a moving golden mountain.
Finally, on the tenth day of the first month of October, Guo Huai surrendered the city.
I arrived in Luoyang on October 25, when the Kwantung region was pacified, and the eight passes of Luoyang were all in the hands of Ji Han, and the battle of Luoyang, which lasted more than four months, ended with Ji Han's complete victory. Taking advantage of Cao Rui's first succession to the throne, Cao Wei's internal instability was unstable, and Ji Han had already prepared and joined forces with Dongwu to catch Cao Wei off guard, which could be regarded as a shame and avenged his father's revenge that year.
Lost Luoyang, Cao Wei shook the country, Cao Rui issued an edict against himself, and asked Sima Yi to recapture Luoyang with all his might, and asked Cao Zhen to defeat Zhang Feibu and enter Luoyang, but Sima Yi was in a battle with Lu Xun at this time, and Cao Zhen was defeated by Zhang Fei several times in a row, unable to face his front, and wanted to fight back, but he couldn't do it at all.
When Soochow learned that we had taken Luoyang, he also quickly sent a congratulatory note and asked Ji Han to send troops to help defeat Sima Yi together.
……
"Prime Minister, this time to pacify Luoyang, I finally fulfilled my father's wish in life, thank you for my father!" In the inner city of Luoyang, Kong Ming and I talked while walking.
Although this place is no longer the South Palace and North Palace of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and due to the fire, there are broken walls and ruins everywhere that have not had time to tidy up, and the scene is full of desolation, but I am still very excited. No matter how dilapidated and broken, this is also the capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty for 200 years. Three points of success, five baht of karma, Beiding Central Plains, back in the old capital, my father's legacy during his lifetime, now all of them have been realized, how can I not thank Mr., how not to thank him for everything he has done. In this world, if there is a perfect person, then this perfect person is him. He is not a god, but everything he has done is greater than God, in order to fulfill his father's wish, in history, he went out of the mountain six times and died of exhaustion in Wuzhang Plain. In this life, he did his best to help me and work with me to complete my father's unfinished business. Finally, under the condition of equal strength, he perfectly defeated Sima Yi, proving that he is a well-deserved first wise man. And Mr. So, like a father and a teacher, although I always say that I don't need to be helped, he is just like my father, showing me the way, helping me to check, quietly filling in for me when I do something wrong, and bravely shielding me from the wind and rain when I am in danger. In fact, there were many times when I really wanted to call him a father, to rely on him as I had historically been, to hide under his wing, and to enjoy the fatherly love that I rarely received from my father. But, no. I'm not who I used to be, and I don't have the right to be weak. At this time. My eyes have long since turned to the east and the south.
Kong Ming was not thanked by me as usual: "Why did Your Majesty say this? Eliminate the traitors, set the Central Plains in the north, revive the Han Dynasty, and return to the old capital. In his mind, everything he does is normal, and this is the duty of a courtier.
Actually, Mr. Hayago would say so. For some reason, both of us understood each other's intentions, but as soon as we spoke, we played in the middle of the court, not as casually as I did with others. Perhaps, this is my "imperial style" specially cultivated by my husband. I also changed the subject: "Sir, what do you think of the matter of Soochow?" ”
"The people of Dongwu are not credible." Kong Ming's answer was extremely swift and decisive. "Sun Quan is a man with great ambition and a knack for balance. When Ji Han was weak, he formed an alliance with Ji Han. But Ji Han is strong, but it is impossible for him not to consider Sun Wu's embarrassing situation. I'm Ji Han Liguo. His Majesty is called the emperor and inherits the orthodoxy of the Han family, and Cao Wei is subject to Chan, also known as the empire. Only Sun Quan of Eastern Wu is still a king. His name is not right, his words are not good, he is still sealed by Cao Wei, after that, can he be rewarded by my Ji Han instead? Or will he also claim the title of emperor himself? Your Majesty, if he is the emperor, how will I, Ji Han, treat him? If it is recognized. How can we face the old ministers of the Han family, if we do not approve, how can we maintain our alliance with them? ”
This is indeed a question, to get to the point, if Sun Quan is the emperor, how can I maintain an alliance with him? Obviously, I can't congratulate him on his actions as I have historically done now. But. As his strength grew. There will definitely be a shift in this regard. Now that Ji Han has swallowed Luoyang, it is impossible to deal with Dongwu and Cao Wei at the same time. Our strength is sufficient to sustain both battlefields at the same time.
"However, although in the future, Dongwu will definitely be our enemy, but at the moment they have betrayed the alliance, not yet, where our army borders Dongwu, there were originally only the Three Gorges, and now there is a more Shangyong, the mouth of the Three Gorges is hundreds of miles, and the birds are afraid of fish; Shangyong Hanzhong, known as Heavenly Prison in ancient times, Cao Cao also sighed. They attacked these two places, all of them were from the back, the Eastern Wu men and horses, good at water warfare, if they abandoned the water and climbed the mountain, but it was not their forte, and they would definitely lose our ally, for the Eastern Wu, the gains outweighed the losses. At present, the most important thing is to seize interests, Jingzhou, Yangzhou, which places are richer and stronger than Yizhou. Right now, it's the fight for these places that is the most important place. However, as Ji Han's strength increases, the conflict of interests will increase, and the risk of us turning against him will also be greater. For example, if we go south to Jingzhou, we will have a conflict with Lu Xun. Kong Ming obviously wanted to take Jingzhou back, for him, it was his seclusion, and it was the place where his father and he first met. And I don't think so, after all, I was born there.
"Forget it, if you eat too much, you will have indigestion. Jingzhou, just cheap Soochow. "I finally gave up, "That's good, sir, at the moment Lu Xun is a little powerless to deal with Sima Yi's remnants and Xu Huang, since we don't want to turn our faces with Dongwu at the moment, let's show good, send someone to help him, if you win Jingzhou, then draw a line with them, don't fight, what happens in the future, then it's good to improvise." ”
Kong Ming nodded.
At the beginning of November, Jiang Wei, Wang Ping, and Wang Jun were ordered to go to Nanyang, join Zhuge Qiao, cooperate with Lu Xun to fight, meet Sima Yi, and accept Lu Xun's dispatch. Zhao Yun and Pang Debu went east to the Tiger Prison Pass and cooperated with Zhang Fei to deal with Cao Zhen.
。。。。。。。。。。
Xiahouba left Luoyang and made up and traveled east. He pretended to be a homeless and mixed among the people, but because of his strong health, he was arrested on the way and repaired the city wall for more than ten days, and then finally found an opportunity to escape. At this moment, he did not dare to act at will, hiding among the mountains, forests and grasses during the day, and only dared to go east at night, thirsty and hungry, sometimes he stole it, sometimes he robbed, and if he couldn't steal it, he couldn't grab it, so he endured it. Sometimes, he even feeds on carrion and rats.
He never knew that he was so able to endure hardship and starve. Whenever this happens, he hates Sima Yi even more, if it weren't for his bullshit trick, let himself be an ambush to lure the enemy, how could he be captured by Ji Han? How could he suffer so much, what is he not Ji Han's meticulous work? Even at that point, he deserves to die!
However, he also knew that the Sima family had deep roots and no real evidence, so he was afraid that he would not be able to move him. What's more, Empress Dowager Guo's family is still helping him. Can I tell Your Majesty that I heard Ji Han's two soldiers chatting, and then I suddenly realized that Sima Yi was Ji Han's meticulous work to seize the Great Wei River? In this way, although he is a relative of the emperor, he will also be scolded out of the land. Even if Sima Yi used troops improperly in northern Xinjiang and was quickly defeated by the enemy in Luoyang, there is no direct evidence, and there is no direct evidence, it will not be able to prove his guilt.
However, it is certain that His Majesty should be aware of the death of his biological mother, and when he was in Northern Xinjiang, he was with Cao Zhao, and he had heard Cao Zhao vaguely reveal his dissatisfaction with Empress Guo. Cao Zhaona is the closest person to His Majesty, he is dissatisfied with Empress Guo, and His Majesty must be dissatisfied with Empress Guo. His Majesty is kind-hearted, his mother is filial, his mother's death is not clear, it turned out to be the crown prince, and he became the emperor at this time, if he grasps the truth, can he not take revenge?
However, no matter how filial your majesty is to his mother, he is now the emperor, and his focus is on the world. At present, the world is in chaos and the Great Wei is in crisis, in this case, will he have the determination to take measures to deal with Sima Yi? If Your Majesty, in order to take into account the overall situation, thinks that you can't move the Sima Clan, or thinks that it is not time to move the Sima Clan, and jumps out by yourself, wouldn't you be asking for hardship?
No matter what, you hurt me, you lost the northern frontier and sent Luoyang, I have to find a way to kill you, eliminate the harm for Dawei, and avenge me!
By the way, why don't you go north and go to Hanoi to vote for Cao Zhen, maybe only he has the strength to fight against Sima Yi.
。。。。。。。。。。
Sima Yi never imagined that in the battle of Northern Xinjiang, he would have been discarded by him as an outcast, and Xiahou Ba had regarded him as a great enemy in his life, and wanted to kill him to relieve his hatred. But he knew one thing, the current situation was too bad for him.
In Zhuge Liang's letter to him, the first one said that he would attack Luoyang in seven days, and then said to the outside world that it was Sima Yi who ceded Luoyang to Di Jihan, making it difficult for him to gain a foothold in Cao Wei.
He didn't believe it, and as a result, it didn't take seven days at all, Zhuge Liang took Luoyang down, if he hadn't run fast and should have become decent, he was afraid that he would have stayed in Luoyang and become a prisoner of war. Under such a fiasco, where is this rumor still used Ji Han to create, now the rumors have long been flying all over the sky, what is the saying that the main general is incompetent and tired to death of the three armies; What does it mean to collude inside and outside and betray Kyoto; Some people also said that he used Luoyang in exchange for Sima Zhao's life, but when they found that Sima Zhao did not come back, they turned to say that this just proved that Sima Zhao was Ji Han's fine work, and he went back to Ji Han to arrange for Sima Yi.
Sima Yi has encountered countless failures, but never one has been as miserable as this one; Sima Yi has also encountered countless difficulties, but there has never been such a predicament as dangerous as this one.
When escaping from danger, the team was okay, but when the Han army disappeared, the Wei army, which was dragged down by continuous marches, no longer had a good face for him. There are even people who dare to show that kind of contempt to their faces.
Sima Yi thought that he needed a victory, and only a victory could save this team and save himself.
"If the Metropolitan Governor wants to protect himself, he can also shoot at Dongwu!"
Sima Yi couldn't help but think of the content of the letter again.
"This demon!" He hated.
