"It's not easy for Tang Xian to be a man. With the former general of the Guard, he became a prince. Unfortunately, his position was not good." Zhao Xun couldn't help but sigh after hearing the news sent back from the south.
Pei Yi smiled and said, "If it weren't for the time when meeting the king in Qingzhou, perhaps Tang Xian would have been in another situation."
Indeed, Tang Xian did have a few tricks. If he did not die, he would first meet the Zhao army in the north and then the Yanzhou army. Perhaps, Tang Xian would have another situation. However, those speculations were assumptions after all, and they could not become facts or be defeated.
, eventually dissipated in the long river of history.
After the demise of the Tang army, the Qi army, the Han army, the Luo army and the Shu army gathered together with the Jiangling Prefecture and Jiangxia Prefecture in Jingzhou, and confronted the Yangtze River. In particular, the Qi army was re-established by the Dongting Lake Navy and the Jiangxia Navy.
After surrendering, he immediately headed south, using the Yuan River and Xiang River as the road to launch a counterattack against the southeast of Jiangzhou.[
Because Jiangzhou was originally the old land of King Murong Cheng of Qi, and it had a deep foundation in Jiangzhou. Therefore, when the Qi army took advantage of the navy, the eastern part of Jiangzhou was occupied by the Shu army, it was soon
The Qi army recovered and seized a large number of food, grass and weapons from the Shu army, allowing the Qi army to regain their fighting spirit again. With the Zhao army's continuous acquisition of materials, the Qi army now no longer worry about food and grass.
The Qi army that recovered Jiangzhou also stabilized its flanks.
King Situ Che of Shu wanted to plot against Jingzhou, so he transferred the Shu army that originally attacked Jiangzhou to the north. In his opinion, Jiangzhou had already occupied half of the land, and the remaining half could not last long. Who would have thought that
Jingzhou did not make a profit, but instead lost half of the western part of Jiangzhou.
The benefits were not obtained, but instead they lost their troops and generals. In the western part of Jiangzhou, the Shu army lost more than 30,000 soldiers, but the food, supplies and weapons were lost. Originally, the Shu army was targeted by Jiangzhou, so the army was large.
Most of the food, grass and weapons and weapons stored in Jiangzhou. However, this time, the food, grass and weapons and weapons were transferred to Jingzhou. Although the army was mobilized, the food, grass and weapons and weapons were not exchanged for storage on a large scale.
Therefore, King Situ Che of Shu lost his wife and his army this time, but he didn't get the benefits, but instead lost the money. Especially since the Qi army now has the help of the navy, in Jiangzhou, a region full of water networks, it was a surprise.
The Shu army could not fight back lightly. What made Situ Che even more angry was that the land of Jingzhou was occupied by Situ Hao and Situ Fei, but it was even sunset and the Qi army, which had been suppressed and beaten by him, was also from Jingzhou.
Tear off a bite of meat. In this way, how can you be content with the Wuling Prefecture, which only occupies the southwest of Jingzhou?
Situ Che went north directly with his army, saying that his two brothers and Murong Cheng, the land of Jingzhou, were bounded by Xiangjiang and Yangtze River, and the south would return to Shu army. Otherwise, the army would be in the fortress.
It has to be said that although the Shu army had lost more than 50,000 yuan in the war with the Tang army in Wuling City, after collecting the Tang army's prisoners, a lot of them were added. No matter what, the Shu army was among the southern princes and soldiers.
The sharpest edge. Whether it is the King of Luoyang, King of Hanzhong or King of Qi, they are not willing to face the Shu army alone at this moment. After all, there are other princes waiting beside them.
Seeing that Situ Che was furious, there was a large army heading north, and at the same time he used force against King Hanzhong, King Luoyang and King Qi, he immediately suggested to Situ Che to unite King Hanzhong and King Luoyang to attack the Qi army first. After all, an opponent is far more than the same time.
It is better to match the three. In addition, the King of Hanzhong and King of Luoyang are the same surname, so defeating the Qi army first is the best choice.
Although King Situ Che of Shu was extremely angry because of his successive defeats, it did not mean that he was dispelled by his reason. He immediately agreed to Lin Shiwen's suggestion and even gave all the benefits of handing over Jingzhou to Situ Hao and Situ Fei.
Jiangling Prefecture, because of the successful completion of the attack on Jingzhou, although the three prefectures were still occupied by the Zhao army, Qi army and Shu army, for Situ Fei and Situ Hao, they were already very satisfied with the gains in front of them.
After some consultations to the west, the two decided to use Xiangjiang as the boundary, the King of Hanzhong occupied the western part of Xiangjiang and the King of Luoyang occupied the eastern part of Xiangjiang. In addition, the two formed an alliance to fight against the surrounding princes.
Including his younger brother, Situ Che, King of Shu.
"Second brother, what do you think of the union of the old five?" Situ Hao said to Situ Fei with a serious expression. Although for the King of Luoyang and the King of Hanzhong, their centers are Luoyang and Chang'an to the north.
But both of them began to slowly move their respective centers of power southwards. After all, they were too close to the border of Zhao and felt insecure.
Situ Fei frowned and sneered: "United? He will have such kindness? Don't forget that when he brought us to attack Jingzhou in the south, he wanted us to restrain the Tang army going south to Jiangzhou for him. We will wait for him.
After the Tang army was brought back to the north of Jingzhou, Situ Che immediately left the blame and let us fight the Tang army to death."
"Not only that, after we occupied the Xiangyang Prefecture of Jingzhou, he left the eastern part of Jiangzhou and turned to compete with us for Jingzhou. If it weren't for Tang Xian's determination to defend Wuling City, I would be afraid that Jingling Prefecture, Jiangling Prefecture, and Jiangxia Prefecture
It's all his."
"It's ridiculous. He wanted us to make a profit for his stepping stone. As a result, there was no benefit, but the Qi army counterattacked hard and knocked off a big tooth. Don't forget, at the beginning of the month, he shouted to let us go.
Give him the prefectures and counties on both sides of the Yangtze River, and even use force to coerce. If we hadn't immediately made a move to fight with the Qi army that occupied Jiangxia Prefecture, I'm afraid that what we sent now would not be the Book of Alliance, but the Book of War
.”
Situ Hao nodded and said, "I think so too. Situ Che clearly wants to make an idea about Jingzhou, but his family can't deal with the three enemies. So, if you want to pull us up, you will defeat the Qi army first.
If the Qi army is defeated, then we..."
Situ Fei said in a deep voice: "So, what do you mean is that we promised the alliance of Qi army to fight against the Shu army in Jingzhou?" A few days ago, Murong Cheng also sent someone to discuss with them.
Formed an alliance in Jingzhou to resist the increasingly powerful Shu army. However, although Situ Hao thought deeply at the beginning, he did not agree.
Situ Hao nodded and said, "Although you and I are both surnamed Situ, it is difficult to get along with Situ Che anymore. You and I are definitely trying to get rid of it quickly. Now the alliance is just trying to get rid of it first.
We just resisted at the same time as the Qi army. How could we escape when the Jiangxia Mansion is gone?”
Not only that, whether it is Situ Hao or Situ Fei's command, they both suggested that they join forces with the Qi army to fight against the Shu army in the south. Now, the Shu army is in a strong position, while the Han army and the Luo army are exhausted by the battle in Jingzhou. As for the east
The Qi army was also attacked by the north and south, just like itself. Since this is the case, it should unite weakly and fight against the one that poses the greatest threat.
Wuling City, the base camp of the Shu army in Jingzhou.
"Bastard..." After hearing that the King of Hanzhong and the King of Luoyang had formed an alliance with the Qi army of Jiangxia Prefecture and divided the boundaries with the current boundaries, Situ Che immediately cursed.[
"Investigate the situation in Jiangzhou immediately. Since Jingzhou is not in a good way, we will fight back against Jiangzhou first. Murong Cheng, I want to see. Jiangzhou, you are planning to kill more guards, and you can still support the consumption of Jiangzhou's army.
how long?"
"Master, news came from Jiangzhou that the Qi army was mobilized very quickly. The area opposite to us in the western part of Jiangzhou has gathered 120,000 Qi troops." The intelligence personnel under their command once again gave Situ Che a very angry news.
Originally, Situ Che was still considering whether to attack Jingzhou or Jiangzhou first. Finally, under the planning of his subordinates, he decided to take Jingzhou first. As a result, his two people who were not in opposition to him formed an alliance with the Qi army.
Fight yourself in the south.
Now, the Qi army in Jiangzhou has quickly mobilized its troops in the past ten days and deployed defenses in the western part of Jiangzhou. In this way, the attack on Jiangzhou will be even more difficult. Originally, because of the Qi army's
The navy brought great problems to him. After hearing that Jiangzhou was taken back by the Qi army, it launched a counterattack. Because the casualties were too great, it agreed to the suggestion that the Yangtze River channel should be taken down first, the navy should be established, and then
Go south to Jiangzhou.
But from the news I have received now, the Qi army in Jiangzhou also took advantage of this period of time to make his plans completely empty. More than 100,000 troops, coupled with the benefits of the navy, Situ Che already understood very well.
, it is impossible to attack Jiangzhou from Yizhou and Ningzhou to the east at this moment, but it is afraid that it will not cost a heavy price.
"Damn... Situ Hao, Situ Fei, you should die!"
The attack on the Qi army by the Shu army still originated from the actions of the Yong army at the beginning. But since then, King Yong Situ Lei died, and after the Yong army was divided into three, the Shu army, which inherited most of the Yong army's forces, inherited the Yong army in the past.
On the southern border. However, after losing the land north of Hanzhong and Yongzhou, the Shu army still suffered a lot of losses. The new king succeeded to the throne and the two princes became independent, which made the Shu army unstable.
Therefore, in Jiaozhou, most of the Yong army was originally occupied by the Yong army, but then it began to become in chaos. However, in Jiangzhou, it could not be captured repeatedly. Now, Jiangzhou has been recovered by the Qi army, and Jiaozhou is still in chaos.
Land. Situ Che, who inherited the cause of King Yong, not only did not go further, but began to retreat. How could Situ Che not get angry?
You should know that Situ Che is the fifth son of King Yong, and the two princes above have been separated and independent on the grounds that their names are injustice. But these two separatist and independent guys have won a great victory.
Wouldn’t it be that the person who was already dissatisfied with the people who were dissatisfied with all their efforts and even more dissatisfied with him?
Sure enough, in April, under the rule of the entire Shu army, it began to be rumored that Situ Che was conspiring to rise to power, which was not orthodox. Why? Don’t you see, the former eldest prince and the second prince, and the current Luoyang king and the Hanzhong king both defeated the Tang army and achieved great success.
Victory occupied most of Jingzhou. What about the five princes of the past? They were defeated repeatedly and could not even defend the territory captured by King Yong in the past. For a moment, these rumors spread throughout the Shu army's territory, and the Shu army moved up and down.
"Swallowing" is uneasy.
"Investigate, investigate hard, I want to see who is spreading rumors." Situ Che, who was embarrassed and angry, suddenly felt that the civil and military officials under his command seemed to have different eyes when they looked at him.
The color of contempt and even the color of doubt.
"Master, rumors stop at the wise. It is okay to investigate thoroughly, but you must investigate privately and do not cause panic." Lin Shiwen immediately stopped him when he heard Situ Che's order.
"Oh? What do you mean? Do you also think that this king's position is wrong?" Situ Che stared at Lin Shiwen with sharp eyes.
Lin Shiwen said in a deep voice: "Master, when the former king handed over the great cause to the Lord, I was following me, how could I doubt it? Now this rumor is clearly disturbing our army and causing us to fall into internal chaos.
Among them, his heart is cruel. If the Lord investigates it extensively, it will definitely make people more suspicious, and it will be unfavorable. In this way, he will be deceived by the enemy."
"Since ancient times, there has never been a general who has not failed, nor will there be a smooth prince. The lord is a prince. How could he go ahead and retreat because of some rumors?" Lin Shiwen also understood Situ Che's performance at this moment.
After all, the orthodox "sex" of his position must make him angry.
After Lin Shiwen said this, Situ Che slowly calmed down. Yes, he inherited the position of King Yong, and he had important civil and military officials in the Yong army at the beginning, which could be proved.
"Hateful! Who is it? How dare you be so? Thanks to the Prime Minister reminding me that I am careless."
"The Lord, spreading these rumors will make his heart very sinister. I will work with all the important officials to strictly enforce this matter. I think that those who spread these rumors must be the other princes." Lin Shiwen said with a serious expression.
"Which side does the Prime Minister think it is?" Situ Che looked violent and dared to use his throne as a weapon. No matter who it is, he wants him to look good.
"The King of Luoyang, Hanzhong, Qi, and Zhao are all possible. The King of Luoyang and Hanzhong have been eyeing the Lord's position, and now they are in opposition because of Jingzhou. Naturally, I hope that there will be problems within us. King of Qi Murong Cheng and
We fought in Jiangzhou and Jiaozhou, and we had old hatreds. As for King Zhao, he naturally hoped that we, the most powerful princes in the south, would fall into internal liquidation. But no matter what, if the Lord did not care, it would have been eliminated.
Most of the threat.”
Situ Che's eyes turned cold and said, "No, not only that, but just this cannot eliminate the disaster. It seems that I need a victory. King Yong's great cause should have been inherited by me, but Situ Hao and Situ Fei dared to seize power.
If you are independent, you should bear the attack of my king. Going north with all your might, I don’t believe that Situ Hao and Situ Fei can resist the 100,000 elite troops under my command. I don’t believe that I don’t believe that this place in Jingzhou is worth it
arrive."
Although Lin Shiwen repeatedly dissuaded, Situ Che still decided to attack Jiangling Prefecture in the north. Therefore, Jiangling Prefecture, which had just calmed down, was once again in the midst of war.[
When the South continues to fight, the northern land is in continuous reform. Because the establishment of a new country, the old systems of the past will be replaced. When the new policies and new systems are progressing, the government will also go from all over the country.
Many problems have been investigated and dealt with.
Privacy and fraud, corruption and bribery, and various problems emerge one after another. Zhao Xun directly used the most ruthless means to solve these problems, that is, killing them. In just a few years, various problems arose within the Zhao army.
, How can Zhao Xun not be angry? Now that the new country and new atmosphere are new, Zhao Xun absolutely does not allow this situation to continue to occur.
In addition, people have also begun to encourage people to move westward in Zhao State. To this end, the Secretariat passed the land replacement method. The people in the Central Plains can exchange their own land for ten times the land in the Western Regions. In this way,
Come to encourage the Han people in the Central Plains to migrate westward.
"King, the south has sent back news that the Shu army has begun to take action against the King of Luoyang and the King of Hanzhong. Both sides have already started a war on the front line of the Yangtze River."
Zhao Xun smiled indifferently and said, "Very good, the Privy Council did a good job. Brother Situ finally started to fight in the internal struggle. In this way, I will give you a breath."
Yang Wangqing, the commander of the Southern State, nodded and said, "Yes, in this way, the former Yongwang system will never come together again, and the threat to us will also drop to a low point."
"Yes, everyone in the Privy Council has made great contributions this time." Zhao Xun said with a loud laugh.
For Zhao Xun, the three kings of Luoyang, Hanzhong and Shu, pose the greatest threat to the Zhao army. Especially now that they have occupied Jingzhou again, the threat of these three people is even greater. After all, the three of them have a family of the same person.
, there is a possibility of walking together. If the three kings now walk together, it will be no less than the threat from the Yong army to themselves in the past. Although the Zhao State is not afraid of the current state, once the Zhao State army goes south, it will inevitably form
A protracted stalemate.
The Qi army and the King of Luoyang and the King of Hanzhong were not the idea of others, but the Privy Council of Zhao State planned it. From then on, we learned from Tang Wen that Tang Xian was going to hand over Jiangling and Jiangxia prefectures to Qi army, and the Qi army also occupied it.
After Jiangxia Prefecture, the Privy Council of Zhao began to plan to connect King Hanzhong, King Luoyang and King Qi to fight against the Shu army.
The matter was indeed successful. By bribing the ministers of Qi army, he asked him to suggest to the King of Qi. The King of Qi indeed implemented the strategy of forming an alliance with the King of Hanzhong and the King of Luoyang. Although the King of Qi was a dead enemy with the former King Yong, he also knew that he
How bad the situation is now.
The rumors in the Shu army were naturally planned and arranged for the detailed actions of the Privy Council of Zhao. The original plan of the Privy Council was to anger King Situ Che of Shu to allow him to clean up the internal forces of the Shu army. Of course, at the same time, the Shu army was
The detailed work will present various traces and evidence.
However, Situ Che was not deceived or persuaded by Lin Shiwen, but the Privy Council did not stop. Because they knew that even if King Situ Che of Shu would not clean up the unstable civil and military officials on a large scale, it would be certain to investigate it secretly.
So, the detailed works in the Shu army still created many traces for all the civil and military officials who might be exploited, and were found for the inner guard of the Shu king.
In addition, Situ Che finally attacked Situ Hao and Situ Fei for the reason of the rumors. After the Privy Council studied Situ Che's position and nature, he believed that Situ Che would definitely be angry by this rumors and made up his mind to those two people.
A brother who threatened him started to attack. Sure enough, Situ Che and Situ Hao and Situ Fei began to fight each other.
