The last three kingdoms

Chapter 678 The real hidden danger

After the dynasty dispersed, Jia Chong did not leave, but went straight to the harem to ask Sima Yan.

Sima Yan was a little strange, the court meeting had just ended, so Jia Chong could have said something at the court meeting, why did he have to go to the harem to say something, could it be that there was something that was difficult to say in front of the officials?
Sima Yan was muttering in the dark, but he quickly spread the word to Jia Chong. As one of Sima Yan's few confidantes, Sima Yan still had considerable trust in Jia Chong.

"See Your Majesty." Jia Chong came to the harem and paid respects to Sima Yan.

Sima Yan waved his hands and said: "There are no outsiders here, so you don't need to salute. Now that the meeting is over, you want to speak again. Could it be that there is something embarrassing in the hall?"

Jia Chong respectfully said: "Your Majesty is wise, the minister just heard Kong Xun's words and was deeply touched, so I see you again at this moment. After all, there are some things that are inconvenient for the court to speak clearly."

Sima Yan said with great interest: "Then tell me."

Jia Chong said: "Your Majesty, although the Wu people take Yiyang, the harm is limited. As we all know, the Wu people are strong in the navy, where there are waters to fight. The Wu people's advantages are full. If they leave the waters, they are useless. Even if they gain a firm foothold in Yiyang, at best they will go down the Huai River to enter Shouchun, or go upstream to enter Xiangyang. However, whether it is Shouchun or Xiangyang, they are as solid as gold, and Wu people want to take them. It is not an easy task. As for the Wu people who are worried about taking advantage of the momentum to advance northward, attacking Runan, and threatening the capital, it is purely imaginary. How can the Wu people, who have no superiority in the water army, stand against our cavalry? So I think that Lu Kang will never dare to go north easily, the Huai River line is the farthest place he can reach."

Sima Yan groaned lightly, and said: "So, Yi Yang's loss was not urgent?"

Jia Chong said: "That's what I mean. The real hidden danger doesn't come from the south."

Sima Yan's interest suddenly increased, and he asked: "Then where does Gonglu think the real hidden danger is? Is it Liu Yin in Guanzhong?"

"No," Jia Chong said calmly, "Liu Yin occupies the Guanzhong, although he is eager to do so, but if Liu Yin wants to shake the foundation of our Great Jin, he is still a little too late. What I worry about is the northern land. The Hu people. Since the former dynasty, Hu people have migrated from outside the Great Wall in large numbers. Now there are Hu people living in Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Jizhou, with a population of more than one million. The imperial seal, obeying the court's laws and regulations, but the country is easy to change, and the nature is hard to change. These barbarian people make trouble in the place where they live, looting and looting, and they are still like a group of barbarians. , will inevitably give birth to the idea of ​​rebellion. Just now in the palace, Wang Ji recommended Liu Yuan, which made the minister more worried than before. Your Majesty must be very clear about what kind of person Liu Yuan is. He has a magnificent appearance and outstanding talent. At that time, it was widely rumored that Liu Yuan had a different appearance and the appearance of a son of heaven, your Majesty must guard against this."

Sure enough, after Jia Chong finished speaking, Sima Yan's expression turned serious.You must know that Sima Yan himself ascended the throne because of his abnormal appearance, so he firmly believed in such heretical things that the abnormal appearance said. There have long been rumors that Liu Yuan has six or three red hairs on his heart. Three feet and six inches long, Cui Yizhi from Tunliu was good at reading faces. He was surprised to see Liu Yuan, and said that he would be rich and powerful in the future.

Jia Chong's words pierced Sima Yan's heart. The Hu people have moved inland for a long time, but it is not something that the emperor can abolish if he says it is abolished. There are millions of people, and there is a trend of becoming too big to lose. The court has no good way to deal with it. If it sends troops to conquer, it will easily cause civil uprisings, so the current strategy can only be based on appeasement, but Under this kind of appeasement policy, how can we know that there will be no greater disaster.

"You mean that Liu Yuan is likely to have disobedience?" Sima Yan said.

Jia Chong said: "I just have doubts, but I would rather believe what I have than what I don't have. Liu Yuan is born with courage and is the best in civil and military. After all, Yuan is a barbarian, and his heart must be different. When the dragon meets the rain, it will no longer be a thing in the pool."

Sima Yan nodded and said: "Grandpa's concern is in line with my heart, and Kong Xun is outspoken in the palace, so I did not give Liu Yuan the military power."

Jia Chong said: "Shangdang is a dangerous place, and it is very close to Luoyang. Since your Majesty has the heart to guard against Liu Yuan, why not remove him from the post of Shangdang prefect and appoint another post to avoid future troubles."

Sima Yan happily said: "Okay, just follow Aiqing's words."

Although Chen Qian was the Taiwei of the current dynasty, most of these official positions have now been reduced to symbolic meanings.As for his duties, Chen Qian did not stay in Luoyang, the capital city, most of the time, but stayed in Ancheng, the prefecture.

It seems that Chen Qian has nothing to do with the Jin army's use of troops on the three routes on the western front, but Yuzhou, as an important state in the hinterland, naturally has to take on the important task of logistics and supplies. Many food, grass and supplies needed for the front line need to be raised by Yuzhou From this point of view, Chen Qian is indeed a busy man.

He deeply feels the heavy responsibility, and dare not pretend to be in the hands of others. He does everything by himself, and strives to ensure that there is no shortage of supplies on the front line.

The fact that the Wu people captured Yiyang also surprised Chen Qian. Although the administrative division of Yiyang belongs to the Yangzhou Governor's Department, because Yiyang is adjacent to Runan, it is only a hundred or so away from Ancheng, the seat of Yuzhou. The distance of Yiyang and the fall of Yiyang shocked everyone in Yuzhou.

To the north of Yiyang is Ancheng, Runan, where the governor of Yuzhou is located. Yiyang's sudden miss caught the Jin State completely by surprise. Yuzhou suddenly changed from a place in the belly to an important border area. The officials in Yuzhou looked at each other, not knowing What to do.

Chen Qian is a relatively calm one. After Yiyang fell, Chen Qian immediately made arrangements to send troops to Xinxi, which is adjacent to Yiyang County, to guard against further infiltration of the Wu army to the north. Chen Qian has nothing to do with it, but if Runan County made a mistake, then he is definitely to blame.

Doing a good job in the defense of Yuzhou is Chen Qian's biggest task at present, but soon, only two or three days later, a piece of imperial edict sent from Luoyang, the capital city, was sent to Chen Qian by express express six hundred miles away. Qian's hands.
