Dajin picked up a god of war

Chapter 1180 Jiangzhou Reverie
Wang Zhenying was granted the title of King Mi as King of Langya. To be honest, since the decree was promulgated, the Sima family could not figure it out at all.

Why is this?

Why do this?
If Wang Zhenying united with Wang Gong to control the government, it might be easier for the Sima family to understand.

However, Wang Zhenying neither supported her eldest brother nor controlled the government herself, but threw all the troubles to Wang Mi!
This handsome man!
The sudden rise of the North Mansion general who seemed to have almost nothing to do with the Queen Mother and had no close actions in the past!

Wang Mi's rise was so rapid that many ministers who were not officials in Jiankang City had not yet recovered. Such an important army in Beifu was already in Wang Mi's hands.

Why did Wang Zhenying get involved with Wang Mi?
Could it be that there has been an affair for a long time?

One is the young empress dowager who still retains her charm, and the other is the elegant young master who is popular in Jiankang City. They joined together so quickly and closely that they even surpassed family ties and threw Wang Gong aside.

In people's poor and complicated imagination, they naturally think that this young man and woman have an affair.

If there wasn't an affair, why would Wang Zhenying abandon her own brother and instead support the powerful official Wang Mi?
Although it suddenly seemed that Wang Mi was more powerful and could support Wang Zhenying better, Wang Gong was her eldest brother after all, and he was a high-ranking person when Sima Yao was still alive.

Can such a suitable candidate not cooperate and rely on Wang Mi instead? Can this be explained by common sense?
Of course not!
So, the best explanation is the affair between men and women!

If the male protagonist wasn't Wang Mi, maybe the Sima family wouldn't make too many connections, but it happened to be Wang Mi.

This man has always been very popular with women. When there was no interest entanglement, those women were still buzzing around him like flies, let alone now.

The two people originally had a relationship of mutual benefit and cooperation, and Wang Zhenying was a woman from an aristocratic family, and Wang Mi also came from an excellent background, so they definitely had something in common.

Only the two of them hooking up can reasonably explain all of Wang Zhenying's current abnormal behavior.

Hahaha!
Think about it, according to the thinking of Sima Shangzhi and others, then the Queen Mother Wang Zhenying is really guilty of a heinous crime, and her crime is unforgivable!
Murder my husband!

He also hooked up with Xiao Langjun, betrayed Da Jin's interests, and gave all the power to his lover!
Even if you want to find someone with the same surname as Sima, you can do it!
At any rate, that means the fat does not flow to outsiders, but the meat rots in the pot!

But she, Wang Zhenying, found someone with a foreign surname. How could this happen?Isn't this tantamount to betraying the Sima family?

There is no philosophical work Jin Ping Mei in the Jin Dynasty. Otherwise, Wang Zhenying would have to be labeled as Pan Jinlian.

Of course, objectively speaking, what Wang Zhenying did was much worse than Pan Jinlian in the novel.

No matter how vicious Pan Jinlian's methods were, what she did only hurt a limited number of people, and it completely fell into the category of boudoir secrets.

How can it be compared with Wang Zhenying? Here, betraying a family and a court is a matter of life and death!

How could Sima Shangzhi and the others tolerate Wang Zhenying's actions?

Of course I can't stand it!

However, didn’t they endure it for more than half a year?

At that time, they changed their last names?Or not a man anymore?

That is naturally impossible.

I have always wanted to make trouble. It was a seed that was buried deep in the hearts of the Sima family. However, at that time, Wang Mi and the Beifu Army under his command were still in the capital. They were Xiongxiong soldiers, members of the Sima family. How can people and their soldiers defeat them?

Not an opponent at all!
You must know that the powerful Di Qin army was defeated by the Beifu soldiers led by Wang Mi. The Sima family's soldiers could not even defeat Di Qin, so how could they compete with the Beifu soldiers?
At this time, the mentality of the Sima family was very interesting, as if the Beifu soldiers had been expelled from the Jin army and had nothing to do with them.

No matter what, they didn't dare to take action while Wang Mi was in Jiankang, and for a long time after Wang Mi left, Sima Shangzhi didn't dare to act rashly.

This was all because they were afraid that Wang Mi would suddenly turn back, or that he would not go far enough and come back halfway to eliminate them.

How can that be good?

We, the Sima family, can only pick the soft persimmons, don't expect us to touch the hard bones.

We will never take action until the persimmons have softened!
absolute!

When they learned that the Northern Expedition army had arrived in Qinzhou and achieved a great victory, they became more alert.

gone!

Really gone!

away!
Once they're gone, we can get on!
Yes!

What else are we afraid of?
Not at this time, when will it be?
In the not-so-distant city of Yangzhou, something strange had happened. Sima Shangzhi, a man with a beard, jumped on his horse, took his younger brother Sima Xiuzhi, and headed straight for the target.

And where is their goal?
Don't worry, it's not far away and you'll find out soon.

…………

In Jiangzhou, along the ferry.

Under the cover of the gray fog, several large ships as high as two stories were cutting through the fog and gradually approaching the ferry.

When we reached the border of Jiangzhou, our march could only rely on waterways, which would inevitably be affected by currents, water speeds, and even weather.

Much slower.

The ferry could be seen from a distance, and the first boat accelerated and rushed to the front. After a while, the boat was the first to dock.

A boatman had been waiting on the shore early. With a pick of the bamboo pole, the boat stopped lightly, got on the small sampan, and a team of guards jumped ashore first.

Although they had solemn expressions, wore armor, and were majestic, their arrival did not make people feel afraid.

On the contrary, the two people who jumped ashore later were obviously not wearing armor, but just the most ordinary clothes. They looked neat and upright, and did not have any chilling air, but they made people shudder at a glance.

"Zeng Jing, you have come all the way. I see that the situation in Dajin is still very stable. It seems that Sima Shangzhi failed to mobilize more troops to cooperate with them."

"Look, are they taking action now?"

The two people taking a short break in the station are Beifu generals, He Wuji and Zeng Jing. They followed the order of Langya King Wang Mi and led the army to Jiankang for reinforcements.

Along the way, He Wuji traveled day and night for fear of making any mistakes. He was always thinking about the situation in Jiankang City in his heart and mind.

At the same time, he was also worried about the Northern Expeditionary Army.

You must know that although Wang Mi has carefully deployed and arranged properly, as long as the troops are divided, it will definitely have an impact on the main force.

The cities to be attacked ahead are each more difficult than the last. They are all important military towns. If the Jin army wants to win, they must make more efforts.A greater sacrifice.

However, facing such a predicament, Wang Mi had to make up his mind to allocate a large part of his troops to aid Jiankang. There was no need for Wang Mi to complain, and He Wuji understood that this was a very difficult decision.

At the same time, it will have a great impact on the subsequent Northern Expedition.

In a war, people will die, and how can the dead people go back to supply the Beifu soldiers?

In other words, when Wang Mi assigned this group of soldiers to He Wuji, he had already made a decision. Even if these people survived, they would only stay in Jiankang and would not follow in the footsteps of the Northern Expedition. .

For many soldiers who were originally from Jiankang, Jingkou and Jiankang, this may be a good thing.

After all, they can head home first.

Several battles and countless dangers were all passed smoothly by them. They are warriors and they are also lucky ones.

Being able to go home, at this moment, is naturally the best thing for the soldiers.

What's more, at this moment, maybe Jiankang City is still peaceful, and there is no chaos or war as imagined.

Wouldn't it be better to just go home and rest?

Is there anything more beautiful than this?

In order to achieve this goal, the considerate Wang Mi also put a lot of thought into selecting the soldiers to follow He Wuji, specifically selecting those whose homes were in Jiangzuo, especially in the counties surrounding Jiankang City.

These people were all scheduled by Wang Mi. No matter how they performed in Jiankang City or whether they participated in the war, he was not prepared to let them come back again.

"Based on my hunch, we should have already taken action."

"It turns out that you feel the same way." He Wuji was very disappointed. At this time, he wished he could hear some words of comfort from Zeng Jing.

However, these are just beautiful expectations after all. Compared to He Wuji, Zeng Jing is also a very rational person.

Sima Shangzhi and his group originally wanted to suppress bad intentions and cause trouble. They had not taken action before because they were not strong enough. In fact, they were also afraid of the power of the Beifu soldiers led by Wang Mi.

Now that the Northern Expedition army has gone far, even if they divide their forces, it is extremely difficult to take care of both ends. Therefore, such a good opportunity is right in front of them. How can they not seize the opportunity and give Jiankang a try?
Correct!
Just give it a try.

Looking at the various behavioral characteristics of the entire Sima family and the ministers of the entire Jin Dynasty when they rebelled, one obvious tendency is that they just have to give it a try when they get the opportunity.

It's like what the slang says: If there are dates but there are no dates, it will take three poles.

It is this kind of psychology that drives these people to keep doing things, but they don't seem to care about the consequences of doing so.

Can it be successful?
What are the chances of success?
It does not matter.

If you're not satisfied, just do it.

So, under such psychological guidance, it is naturally impossible to succeed. Looking at the civil strife in Dajin, it has not subsided almost all year round, with various rebellions rising one after another.

But, you see, the Jin Dynasty was quite strong, unlike those small courts in the north, and not like the later Southern Dynasties, which just fell.

The fundamental reason is not that the later Southern Dynasties army became stronger and better at fighting. In fact, if measured from a realistic perspective, the military quality and combat effectiveness of the entire Southern Dynasty have been gradually declining since Liu Yu's death.

However, some dynasties decline more slowly, and some dynasties decline more quickly and collapse extremely quickly.

At the same time, what is another major trend?

Ever since Liu Yu seized the throne of the Jin Dynasty due to the strength of his troops in the north and established the Liu and Song dynasties, the entire Southern Dynasties fell into a cycle where powerful warlords would always emerge from the chaos and become emperors of the new court. .

Correct!
That's right!

This is true for Nan Qi, Nan Liang, and Nan Chen.

In other words, these people were able to become emperors because they were strong military men, and they finally won victory with the help of their powerful troops.

As the former commander-in-chief of the army, the emperor was closely connected with the army under his rule, and it was very difficult for others to shake him.

Therefore, except for the Great Jin Dynasty of the Sima family, all the small courts in the Southern Dynasties could not last long, and this is the reason.

Originally, this era was full of wars and disputes. The North and the South were in a state of separatism, and the situation was unstable.

War and chaos, whether external or internal, will never end.

Since it cannot be stopped, then in each divided small court, there will inevitably be a situation where the generals support their troops and respect themselves.

The best among them can stand out and ascend to the throne. However, again, because the strength of these divided forces is always limited, they are simply unable to complete the great cause of unifying the Central Plains. Therefore, on the premise that foreign aggression cannot be solved, the military The power will continue to be worn away, and the power of the small court will naturally become weaker and weaker.

In the end, they will naturally be replaced by new forces, and they often cannot last long. For example, for a contemporary hero like Liu Yu, the Liu Song Dynasty he established could only last for a few decades.

For those who come after him, each person can only carry it for about 50 years.

These small imperial courts in the Southern Dynasties were always easily disintegrated, and that was all because those who caused trouble were generals who had truly straddled their horses and whipped their whips, and had charged and killed them on the battlefield.

They did what they said, and their methods were ruthless and resolute.

With the strength in place, it is naturally easy to succeed.

But these troublemakers in the Jin Dynasty, whether it is Huan Xuan or his father Huan Wen, may be able to touch the door to success. Huan Xuan even seriously proclaimed himself emperor, which can be regarded as more powerful than his father. One step further.

However, in the end, he only served as emperor for two years before he woke up from his sweet dream and was driven out by Liu Yu again, restoring his position as emperor of the Jin Dynasty.

Although when Liu Yu came to power, the so-called Emperor of the Jin Dynasty was just a decoration and had no practical use.

However, you have to say that almost none of the rebellions of those generals and powerful officials who were affiliated with the living environment of the Jin Dynasty could achieve great things or achieve great causes.

why?
It's not because these people never have a comprehensive plan when doing those things, and they always attack in anger. As for whether they can succeed, they don't care at all.

In addition, many so-called powerful ministers are also civil servants. Even if they have the experience of leading troops, they often only talk about military affairs on paper and have never actually gone to the battlefield to fight.

There is no internal unity. You seek refuge with me and I betray you. This is commonplace.

Just like this, it would be awesome to succeed!
