To recover Shuzhong without a fight, the plot can be determined in Dongguan.

This is a rare big victory since Chu Bao's Northern Expedition, Huan Wen is famous in Jiangdong, and his prestige and prestige have recovered a lot, and even Xie An regards himself as a subordinate in front of Huan Wen.

Sima Yu simply asked the immortals and asked, not involved in court politics.

Emperor Jin once again promoted Huan Wen to the prime minister, increased the number of households, and added the front Yubao to advocate, Wu Ben 60 people, and summoned him to the auxiliary government of the court.

"The shame of these two wins in Hefei?" Huan Wen was deeply ashamed of the defeat in Hefei, especially in Guanzhong.

Although the Northern Expedition was defeated, it severely damaged Di Qin, shot and killed Fu Chang, the prince of Di Qin, seriously injured Fu Xiong, and lost 10,000 people.

However, the defeat of Hefei was very large, and the Jin army was captured by tens of thousands, and the Liang army was driven straight in, drinking the Yangtze River, and Jiangdong was in a panic.

"No, too!" Xi Chao told the truth.

"Today, the strength of the Liang State is in the east of the river, the Jianghuai is empty, Fu Jian and Jiankang are all persuading me to go on the Northern Expedition, what do you think?" Huan Wen glanced at the generals present.

Huan Huo, Xi Chao, Zhu Xu, Zhu Yao, Yuan Hong, Zhu Bin, Zhu Xuan and other Jingxiang generals are all listed.

The center of gravity of the Liang State was in the west and north, and the Jianghuai defense line did not have many troops.

There are only 5,000 black cloud elites in Shouchun Liangxiao's army, 10,000 town troops in Huaibei, and 20,000 naval troops in Deng Yao's army, adding up to less than 40,000.

Now Dongguan is in hand, Hefei is close at hand.

The victory of Dongguan greatly boosted the morale of Jiangdong, and the Liang State was not invincible.

Since Cao Wei, Hefei has been a sharp sword on the head of Jiangdong, and it must be eliminated quickly.

It was Sun Quan who was repeatedly defeated and fought, and after Sun Quan, Jiangdong also sent troops to attack Hefei many times.

"Fu Jian persuaded his brother to go on a northern expedition to relieve the pressure on the Liang State, and as for the princes of the imperial court, they are only afraid of good intentions." Huan Huo is the most strategic person in the Huan family except for Huan Wen.

His sons Huan Shiqian, Huan Shixiu, Huan Shimin, etc. are all famous for their martial arts.

Xi Chao arched his hand and said: "The imperial court instigated the Northern Expedition, but it was to put the Ming Gong on the fire to roast it, Hefei is strong, and there are the advantages of the naval army, once it fails, the prestige of the Ming Gong does not exist." ”

Not only did the Northern Expedition have bad intentions, but he became the prime minister and joined the Jiankang auxiliary government, which also harbored evil intentions.

Huan Wen's departure from Jingxiang is equivalent to breaking away from the foundation.

Jiankang is the territory of the Jiangdong Shi clan.

At that time, Wang Dun and Su Jun both joined Jiankang, and they were also attacked by the powerful people of the scholars from all over the country, and they were finally defeated.

The imperial court has recruited Huan Wen into the court several times, but Huan Wen refused to go alive or dead, and repeatedly refused.

"So, you don't want to go on a northern expedition?" Huan Wen looked at everyone calmly.

Zhu Xu said: "The subordinates thought that the time had not come, Liang Qin did not hand over the troops, and Jiangdong did not make sufficient preparations, so he rashly sent troops, and the outcome was unpredictable. ”

"What is timing? The northern kingdom is stronger every day, and today it will not be conquered, and tomorrow it will not be fell, but it will sit back and watch it grow. "Huan Wen is uncharacteristically resolute.

It was difficult for everyone to persuade again.

However, Xi Chao knew Huan Wen's intentions best, and said with a smile: "Ming Gong's words are also, Liang Guo has repeatedly bullied Jiangdong three times, but it is to suppress the morale of Jiangdong people. Recently, some people in Jiangbei have fled north, and they must be guarded against. ”

Liang Guo's plan to attack the heart has been carried out for so many years, and every time it is implemented, the orthodoxy of Jiangdong will go to a point.

This made people of insight in Jiangdong very worried.

Especially recently, it is rumored that as long as he goes north, Liang Guo will divide the land and give the house, which has attracted many people.

The road of the ministers is endless, if you don't advance, you will die, Huan Wen needs to take the last step through the Northern Expedition, and also needs to use the Northern Expedition to unite people's hearts.

"Yes, the Northern Expedition is imperative, needless to say, you all do your duty, each has its own affairs, I immediately wrote to the imperial court and asked for the Northern Expedition." Huan Wen waved his sleeves, and his determination was made.

Within a few days, Jiankang received Huan Wen's recital.

"Several years without war, the hearts of the people are scattered, the fear of the north is like a tiger, there is a pseudo-history before the advent of the past, after the loyalty and traitor recorded, the heart of the north captives is not dead, now Gengxu is quite effective, the treasury is sufficient, the soldiers use their lives, when the three armies are rewarded, morale is stimulated, with the victory of Dongguan, a wave of longevity, all according to Huainan, the country can try to achieve long-term peace and stability is also ......"

Wang Tanzhi read it out in a suppressed voice.

Xie An was silent, and Wang Biaozhi closed his eyes and pondered.

Sima Yu looked irritable, "Hmph, Huan Wen really dared to go on a northern expedition." ”

Originally, they thought that Huan Wen would not dare to go on the Northern Expedition, so they deliberately instigated, as long as Huan Wen retreated, he would have the heart of cowardice, and then they would operate a little, and they could use this matter to hit Huan Wen's prestige.

I didn't expect Huan Wen to come really.

"What about the Northern Expedition, I will wait for the hindrance, can he still succeed? The Northern Expedition was defeated, what face did Huan Wen have to see the world? Wang Tanzhi shouted.

Xie An said lightly: "No, the previous Northern Expedition failed, the Liang army drank the Yangtze River, if it is defeated this time, the Liang division will go down the Yangtze River, why did Jiangdong refuse?" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but fall silent again.

"Can't we go all out to assist Huanwen in the Northern Expedition?" Wang Biaozhi also hated Huan Wen deeply.

The Manchu Dynasty was civil and military, and the Wang family dared to do so.

Huan Wen is in power, and the biggest loss is the Wang family, the king and the horse share the world, and it is possible to become the Huan Wen family.

"Da Sima may not really want the Northern Expedition, but use the Northern Expedition to unite people's hearts, inspire morale, and attack Hefei in the north. Xie An is the second person besides Xi Chao to see through Huan Wen's heart.

Shouting the Northern Expedition, it is not necessarily necessary to really want the Northern Expedition.

Even if it is the Northern Expedition, when to send troops and when to do it, they are very particular.

Although Huan Wen failed in the two Northern Expeditions, his military strategy was still the best in Jiangdong, and he would not know that the time for the Northern Expedition had not yet arrived.

And such a clamor for the Northern Expedition can also contain the Liang State and respond to Qin.

The army of Liang Guo was pressed to the west, peeking at Guanzhong, Fu Jian was under great pressure, and Huan Wen always had to do something.

Otherwise, you won't be able to get along in front of your allies.

"I see!" Sima Yu sighed, "If he wants to go on a northern expedition, let him go to the northern expedition, and I'll wait and see what happens." ”

However, how should Liang Guo respond to his reprimand? Liang Ruozhen sent troops to attack me......"

In the past few days, it has been Wang Biaozhi who has faced Han Xu, the envoy of Liang State, who bowed his head and was trained, raised his head to laugh, and the taste was really uncomfortable, and what worried him even more was that the Black Cloud Army was going south again.

Several people's eyes were on Xie An.

Xie An's expression was still so gentle, and after thinking for a while, he said slowly: "Liang's old enemy, Qin Ye, before Qin is destroyed, he will definitely not go south, and although Da Sima is not enterprising enough, he has more than enough defense, Dongguan, Weixu, Xiangyang, and Fancheng are all there, and Jiangdong can be safe." ”

The more Liang Guo reprimanded, the more he would not go south.

Jiangdong has been holding back as a grandson for a few years, and he has also accumulated some strength.

"Yes, even if the Black Cloud Army goes south, it is Huan Wen who will be worried, what am I anxious about? Didn't he Huan Wen want to usurp the throne? I've been to Liang Guo first! Wang Biaozhi's brows furrowed.

In the words, the fear of Huan Wen is still above Liang Guo.

With Di Qin here, Jiangdong actually doesn't have that much pressure.

The Three Kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu have been established for 60 years, and although the Liang State is strong now, it may not be stronger than Cao Wei back then.

And the strength of Di Qin is far better than that of Shu Han back then.

The mentality of Jiangdong monarchs and ministers has changed, from "recovering Shenzhou" during the time of Wang Dao to partial peace, and there is no hope for recovering the homeland.
