Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 718 Good News

Li Yue didn't wait too long, and the Jiangdong beacon fire soon began.

Wang Yan, the internal historian of Kuaiji, raised an army, raised the banner of the Qing emperor, and denounced Huan Wen as a traitor. Jiangdong's powerful Yu Gong and Gu Gongzhi responded by raising an army.

Wang Yan was very smart and did not immediately send troops to Jiankang. Instead, he attacked Wuzhong and went south to Jiaoguang to attract more powerful responses.

Jiangdong counties and counties not only did not send troops to attack, but secretly funded it, causing the rebel army to gradually grow in strength. Within ten days, 30,000 to 40,000 people gathered.

Huan Wen was busy being the king of Chu and did not dare to leave Jiankang for a moment, so he ordered the Beifu army to attack it.

The Beifu army was not very interested in going south. They could only march twenty miles in a day, and they were slow to do so.

"Wang Yan is the grandson of Wang Dao and Wang Biao's cousin. This man raised an army and Huan Wen was in big trouble." Wang Meng said with a smile.

"Back then, Sima Rui Jiangdong was full of rebels. Huan Wen wanted to seize the throne. It was not that simple. Fortunately, he only proclaimed himself king. If he had proclaimed himself emperor directly, there would have been more rebels."

The rebellion in Jiangdong has started, and Li Yue is relieved. Although everything has changed, the underlying logic of interests has not changed.

If Huan Wen wants to win over a group of people, there will inevitably be a group of people who are alienated from him.

Jiangdong has three acres of land, and the benefits are so great. Some people will gain it, and some people will definitely lose it.

Moreover, a careful analysis of the intelligence returned revealed that the Jingzhou Army caused great anger and resentment in Jiangdong, and the people hated it to the bone, further deepening the conflict between the Huanwen Group and Jiangdong.

"This year's graduates from Shangwu Hall will all join the school affairs office, receive a little training, and then all go south. I want the rebellion in Jiangdong to turn upside down!" Li Yue said solemnly.

Yang Lue took the backbone of the school affairs office northward, and his control over Jiangdong was greatly weakened.

Many of the disciples of Shangwutang are actually protons sent by Jiangdong's powerful men, including Zhou, Lu, Zhu, Gu, He, and even Sun. Now it's their turn to shine for Daliang.

The fortresses were all breached from the inside. After this ordeal, Jiangdong was almost at the end of its rope.

The unification of the world is at hand.

"Father, the former asked Jiangdong, but Huan Wen didn't reply. It would be better to order the armies of Hanzhong, Jingxiang, and Hefei to feign attack and force him to submit. The people of Jiangdong will be panicked, which may have a miraculous effect." Li Jian cupped his hands and said.

"What do Jing Lue think?" Li Yue's face was expressionless, but he was happy in his heart. Dragons gave birth to dragons, phoenixes gave birth to phoenixes, and the mouse's son knew how to dig holes.

After so many years of teaching by words and deeds, his son Li Jian also knows how to use military blackmail.

Li Yue was afraid that he would be too benevolent and hesitant, but now he felt relieved.

"Your Highness's strategy is very consistent with the art of war. Huan Wen is in trouble both internally and externally. It is the time to make progress." Wang Meng twirled his beard and smiled.

"Your Majesty, good news for Xiazhou." Lu Qing reported outside the hall with a happy face.

Huan Yi has 10,000 Heiyun troops, plus 17,000 well-equipped Xuanjia troops with high morale. If he still can't annihilate Tiefu, Helan and other troops, he will be sorry for Li Yue's high regard for him.

"The governor Huan recruited Xiongnu guides and spent a year surveying the terrain. Ten days ago, he led his army to advance rapidly, assaulted Jinze, and defeated Tiefu's tribe. He killed more than 7,000 people in formation, chased them to the north, and captured 25,000 people. , captured 300,000 livestock, took advantage of the victory to cross the Yellow River, attacked the Helan Tribe, Heishui Tribe, etc., and captured more than 30,000 people!"

The formation killed 7,000 people and captured 50,000 to 60,000 people. It may not seem like much, but for the grassland tribes, it was basically a fatal blow.

Tuoba Shi Yijian suffered a lot from being injured like this.

"Huan Yi is worthy of being a Confucian general of Daliang, and has the elegance of Zhou Gongjin!" Li Yue laughed.

With this battle, Huan Yi rose in the military circles of Daliang and became another handsome man after Wang Meng, Murong Chui, Xu Cheng and Gao Yun.

You know, the Tiefu tribe is not that easy to deal with.

He wandered among the countries for more than twenty years. Later Zhao, Yan, Di Qin, and Liangzhou tribes were destroyed one after another, but the Tiefu tribe flourished.

After this battle, Henan will become Liang Guo's new pasture.

Within a few days, new news came from Jiangdong. Under Xie An's guidance, the Wang family seemed to have reached some kind of agreement with Huan Wen. Wang Ren was named the governor of Guangzhou, Wang Biaozhi was promoted to prime minister of the left, and Wang Tanzhi was promoted to prime minister of the right. The rebel army stopped in Linchuan County and was no longer there. Go south.

"Xie An is really attentive." Li Yue sighed softly after reading all the information sent back by Xizuo.

This person tried his best to maintain the balance of Jiangdong.

"Although the Wang family has been appeased, the powerful Jiangdong will definitely not give in. The truce is only temporary, and Jiangdong will definitely cause greater turmoil in the near future." Wang Meng looked confident.

The conflict in Jiangdong has been going on for a long time, and the local powerful Jiangdong who are suppressed below will definitely not want to let this opportunity pass by.

Even the banner of Qingjun's side has been raised. It is not something that the Wang family and Huan Wen can compromise if they want to.

The Wang family has taken advantage, and the Jiangdong wealthy families who followed him to raise armies have nothing to lose. How can they be willing to do so?

"Jing Lue will wait and see with me."

Less than half a month later, another good news came from the west.

Xue Qiang led the Qin and Han states to suppress the army and pretended to attack Jiange.

Even though the entire army was not close to Jiange, civil strife broke out in Jiange. The guard Zhou Chu was kidnapped by his subordinates and captured Zhu Xu alive. They opened the city to meet Xue Qiang's army. Zhou Chu led his troops to surrender directly.

One man guarded the sword pavilion that could not be opened by ten thousand men, so he threw himself into the arms of the beam without any bloodshed.

Even Xue Qiang thought it was a trick. After hesitating for a day and sending thousands of forwards to take over the city, he realized that Jiange had really surrendered.

The door of Shuzhong is also open to Daliang.

Xue Qiang immediately ordered Zhou Chu to go south and counterattack Shuzhong, and then escorted Zhu Xu, who was unwilling to surrender, to Luoyang.

"Zhou Chu?" Li Yue had some impression of this person.

In the Battle of Fancheng that year, his father Zhou Fu died in the battle.

He didn't expect that his son would switch to Daliang. No wonder Xue Qiang hesitated for a long time.

Wang Meng said: "Wu Xing Zhou Clan, Xiang became the Wuzong of Jiangdong. If this person returns, perhaps there will be big disturbances in the Zhou Clan in Jiangdong."

Sima Rui was able to establish the Eastern Jin Dynasty, relying on the political support of the Wang family, and militarily relying on Wuxing and Zhou Qi to establish the south of the Yangtze River and suppress the uprisings that occurred one after another in various places.

After the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the Zhou family became the Wuzong of Jiangdong.

When the Sima family used up the Zhou family and saw that the Zhou family was powerful and talented, they felt guilty and kicked Zhou Qi away again.

This hard-working general died of anger.

Moreover, the feud between the Zhou family and the Sima family goes far beyond that. Zhou Qi's father, the famous general Zhou Chu, was also tortured to death by the Sima family.

Before Zhou Qi died in anger, he also told his son Zhou Xie: Anyone who kills me is my son if he can revive him.

"If the Zhou family raises an army, it will be enough for Huan Wen to drink a pot." Li Yue suddenly felt sympathy for Huan Wen.

Press the gourd to float the scoop.

This side calmed the Jiangdong nobles, and the other side of Jiangdong's local tyrants became wary again.

It is just a matter of profit distribution with the Jiangdong nobles. After all, Huan Wen is also one of the nobles from the north who moved south, but with the local powerful Jiangdong, it is not that simple.

Xie An can be a good dancer among the gentry in the south, and he can be smooth on both sides, but when facing the local wealthy people, all his methods are useless. They are here to collect debts.
