Chapter 132 The Qiangbei conspiracy finally succeeds
Fu Jian's eyes lit up: "Are Jiangdong's soldiers and horses really so difficult to use? Not really. Don't they also have heroes like Zu Ti?"
Yao Chang raised the corner of his lips in disdain: "At that time, the world was in chaos, and most of the people recruited were northern refugees who went south. Then my brother's time was also the collapse of the Shi Zhao Empire in the north, and a large number of refugees went south. We Qiang people were also helpless.
We have nowhere to go, so we can only rely on the Jin State for the time being. It's not that Jiangdong's soldiers and horses are powerful, it's these refugees from the north who have gone south. They have experienced hundreds of battles and have strong combat power. As for the soldiers of Jiangdong, hehe, they are not worth mentioning."
"When Yin Hao, the minister of the Jin State, wanted to make the Northern Expedition, he used our tribe as the vanguard, but he was afraid that we would make meritorious deeds, so he tried to contain us in many ways. Originally, my brother was grateful to the Jin State for their kindness in taking them in, and he really wanted to serve them, but he was given a hand by someone who didn't understand.
The military civil servants were in trouble everywhere, so they rebelled against Jin in anger. The Jin army had a hundred thousand soldiers in the middle and rear, and they were completely defeated by us. How can they still have the slightest appearance of a strong army?"
Fu Jian nodded thoughtfully: "In that case, there is nothing to worry about in the direction east of the Yangtze River. Does the Jin State still have fighting strength if it only has Jingzhou soldiers?"
Fu Rong said anxiously: "King of Heaven, you must not be careless. The Wu people are not weak in combat, especially in the south of the Yangtze River where water networks are crisscrossed. They are very difficult opponents to deal with. Prime Minister Wang has always said..."
Murong Chui suddenly said coldly: "Prime Minister Wang has passed away. Duke Yangping, do you want to use Duke Yangping to suppress the King of Heaven for the rest of your life? You must listen to him when you are alive, and you must always follow what he says after he dies.
Don’t you also take chances?”
Fu Rong's eyes widened and he said sternly: "Murong Chui, when Prime Minister Wang was still alive, he knew that you had bad intentions, so he wanted to provoke the King of Heaven to conquer the south, so as to create opportunities for the restoration of your Xianbei people. Don't think that Prime Minister Wang
If you are gone, your evil plot will succeed. As long as I am here, I will never let you get what you want!"
Murong Chui laughed: "Yes, when Prime Minister Wang was here, in order to get rid of me, he did not hesitate to hide it from the king of heaven, set up such a vicious plan, and even killed my innocent son. Did Yang Ping Gong want to inherit your mentor's last wish?
Are you going to continue to destroy the entire Murong family? Huh, since the founding of the Qin Dynasty, those who have rebelled seem to be the clan, or the family members of Prime Minister Wang. Is my Murong family in any way sorry for the Qin Dynasty?!"
These words made Fu Rong break into a cold sweat. Indeed, although Murong Chui's words were not fully stated, the meaning was already revealed. He pointed directly at the people who conspired against him, namely the Fu Qin clan and Wang Meng's family members, implying that Wang Meng and Fu Rong also had such rebel intentions.
, to this extent, Fu Rong could not say any more just to avoid suspicion.
Fu Jian frowned. He also heard the meaning of these words. He sighed: "Okay, General Murong and Duke Yang Ping, you are the pillars of the country. The prime minister has recently passed away. You should work together.
How can you have such an open dispute? What will the other ministers think and think?"
Fu Rong curled up his lips and said: "King of Heaven, it's not because I want to embarrass Murong Chui. In fact, his words are completely inconsistent with Prime Minister Wang's last words. You agreed to something that Prime Minister Wang would never forget until his death.
Why do you have to change your mind if you give him and Yao Chang just a few words now?"
Fu Jian pondered for a moment and then said: "Gu promised Prime Minister Wang that he would not invade the south in an all-out way and focus on stabilizing the country, but he did not say that he would condone Jin's repeated provocations. Now Gu is not going to conquer Jin in the south, but
It was the State of Jin that invaded our border. If their ambition is not attacked and punished, we, the Qin Dynasty, will never have peace."
Murong Chui smiled and said: "The last general is willing to lead the army to attack, first defeat Huan Chong, and then capture the two Huai Rivers. When our Qin Dynasty drinks the Yangtze River, we can consider unifying the world, and the king of heaven will also complete the great achievements of the great kings of the past.
Will go down in history forever!”
Yao Chang also followed up and said: "The general is incompetent, but I am willing to assist General Murong in the southern expedition, make contributions to the country, and share the worries of the King of Heaven!"
Fu Jian's eyes sparkled, as if he was a little tempted. Fu Rong looked at Fu Jian, sweating profusely, but he stopped talking. After a long time, Fu Jian sighed: "The Prime Minister has recently lost his life, so this is not the right time.
In the war, we only need to repel Jin's provocation and teach them a lesson. In addition, this time we can also test the Jin army's combat effectiveness to determine the subsequent development. We have decided on our own, and all the ministers listen to your orders!"
All the civil servants and generals knelt down together, each with their own thoughts, listening to Fu Jian's formal military order. Only Fu Jian's steady and powerful voice was heard, floating back and forth in the Taiji Hall, so that everyone could hear it clearly.
It is clear: "Take Fu Pi as the marshal to conquer the south and lead an army of 150,000. We will set off in three days. Murong Chui will be the vanguard and continue to lead our Xianbei army of 30,000 troops. The target is Xiangyang, the gateway to Jingzhou of the Jin Kingdom. You are limited to half a year."
, conquer Xiangyang."
Fu Pi and Murong Chui looked at each other and knelt down together: "I obey your order!"
Fu Jian curled his lips and continued: "If the Jin State raises a large army to fight for it, Gu Ye will conquer all the men in the Qin Dynasty and fight with it. In addition, in order to reduce the burden of the Xiangyang battle, it must be done in Bashu and Lianghuai
Conduct diversionary operations in these two directions. Where is Yao Chang?"
Yao Chang's eyes flashed with excitement, and he knelt down: "I'm here!"
Fu Jian said seriously: "From now on, I will appoint you as General Longxiang. You will lead fifty thousand Qiang soldiers out of the town and build warships. You will be limited to half a year or so to build a navy with more than a thousand ships. You can do whatever you want."
Prepare to go eastward along the river, advance by land and water, and go straight to Jingzhou!"
Yao Chang said in a deep voice: "I obey your order!"
Fu Jian smiled slightly: "This General Longxiang is the title Gu had when he was a general. Since then, our Great Qin has been occupying this position in vain. Today Gu has given this title to you, General Yao, to encourage you!"
As soon as these words came out, many people's expressions changed and they shook their heads secretly. Yao Chang looked calm and kowtowed to the ground: "Thank you, King of Heaven, for your kindness!"
Fu Jian continued: "What's wrong with the governor of Yanzhou, the general of Guangwu, Peng Chao, and the generals behind him?"
Two Xiongnu generals with tall noses, deep eyes, beards and black faces came out of the group and knelt on one knee: "The last general is here!"
Fu Jian said seriously: "Peng Jishi, you have been offering strategies to pacify Huainan these years. This time, I will give you a chance to achieve this goal. Yanzhou has 140,000 soldiers and horses, and I will give it to you to command. Your mission
, is to launch an attack on the two Huaihe Rivers on the eastern front. If there is a chance, we will capture the two Huaihe Rivers. If there is no chance, we will contain the Jin State's troops in the east of the Yangtze River so that they cannot join the Xiangyang battlefield. Do you understand?"
Peng Chao's face was filled with joy: "Thanks to King Tian for trusting me, I will definitely capture the two Huai Rivers!"
Fu Jian said in a deep voice: "Everyone, Prime Minister Wang is not here. Everyone must perform their duties and do their best for the country!"
All the ministers responded in unison: "Long live, long live, long live!"
After retreating from the court, all the courtiers walked away quickly. Only Murong Chui and Yao Chang were left behind. They looked at each other and walked to a deserted place. Murong Chui smiled and said: "Since ancient times, names and weapons cannot be faked.
Man, isn’t it God’s will that the King of Heaven gave the post of General Longxiang to Brother Yao?”
Yao Chang smiled and shook his head: "We are from the same group, General Murong. Only by capturing Xiangyang can we have a chance. Let's do it!"
An intriguing light flashed in Murong Chui's eyes: "The king of heaven will repay you a hundred times for your great kindness!"
