Eastern Jin Invincible Iron Army

Chapter 105
"In the second year of Jian'an ([-] A.D.), Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor. Cao Cao attacked him with heavenly soldiers, and he was defeated. It was returned to the native land, but since the Xiongnu Liu Yuan rebelled and led troops to invade the south, Jieshile, Shile, and Xianbeiyan were washed by soldiers several times, and Jianghuai was a place of war. During the hundreds of miles, there was no human settlement..." Xu Jingxuan saw Gao Jingzong Although young, but with deep scheming, Xu Jingzong became more determined to contribute.

Since the time of the Three Kingdoms, the fertile land along the Yangtze River and Huaihe River has spread for thousands of miles, gradually becoming ghosts and ghosts, and there are no people in the hundreds of miles. In addition to natural disasters and wars, the main reason is that development has not been paid enough attention to.But relatively speaking, man-made disasters are greater than natural disasters, and military disasters are greater than man-made disasters.Since Liu Yuan established the Xiongnu Han Kingdom and Yannan invaded the first time, there have been 37 wars involving more than [-] people in the Jianghuai area in just over [-] years. It would be a strange thing if the Jianghuai area could develop.

Gao Jingzong just developed a salt mine, which attracted the prying eyes of Tian Bao, Tian Luo, Guo Yang and other forces in less than three months. Gao Jingzong believed that the reason for being against him was only superficial, and the real reason was because of Tangible benefits.If the wolf wants to eat the sheep, why not find an excuse?Even if Gao Jingzong farts and pollutes the air in Jianghuai, it can be a reason to attack him.

Gao Jingzong didn't think of Xu Jingxuan as a treasure at all. He was proficient in astronomy and geography, and he was a joke in Gao Jingzong's eyes. Xu Jingzong couldn't know that the earth was round, nor could he know that there was no There is no water in the air, let alone Fairy Guanghan...

Gao Jingzong said: "I don't know why sir taught me how to develop our Jianghuai Governor's Mansion in the later stage?"

"My lord's four great wishes, I feel very good, and they will definitely come true!" Xu Jingxuan said: "I have thought over and over again, and feel that in the current situation, if the lord wants to open up the situation, he must first find a mountain high and water deep, easy Defending the hard-to-attack land, cultivating land and buying properties, hiding soldiers among the people, and watching the situation rise again. However, although the world is big, such easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack lands are rare. It is a pity that Gaozu was based in Hanzhong, with the Qinling Mountains in the north and the Qinling Mountains in the south. The shallow foot of Pingba Mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack. After several years of recuperation, the troops left Guanzhong to compete for the world. However, Hanzhong is now under the control of Sima Xun, and the Lord cannot get it for the time being. In the north, there is Taiyuan (country) and Taihang Mountain in the east. It is connected to Luliang Mountain in the west, Shiling Pass (Huangzhai) in the north, and Hanxinling (Lingshi) in the south. There are 500 million mu of fertile land, which is a rare foundation for emperors. However, Taiyuan is now occupied by the Bailuyan bandits. Letter from Guanzhong Guguan, Dashanguan, Wuguan, and Xiaoguan are separated by the Qin and Han Dynasties, but they are occupied by Di and Qin Fujian, with 20 Di tribe Huqi, who are not the main enemy."

Gao Jingzong was secretly surprised when Xu Jingxuan mentioned the topography and geographical location of Hanzhong, Guanzhong, Taiyuan and other places.In ancient times, the information was not as developed as in the later generations. In this era, the scope of knowledge was very narrow, and the range of people's activities usually did not exceed a radius of a hundred miles. People like Xu Jingxuan could be familiar with the topography of the north and south, and could barely "know geography".In fact, there are many places in China that can be used as the foundation of emperors, such as the "Songliao Basin" in Liaodong, the "Qiangtang Basin" in the core area of ​​Tubo, the "Aksai Chin Basin" where the Khotan Kingdom rose, and the Shaanxi-Gansu where the Celestial Dynasty flourished. Ning Basin, etc.

"Nowadays, most of the lands of Longxing either have owners or are criss-crossed!" Xu Jingxuan continued: "There are actually not many choices for the master, only Nanyang, the land of Longxing of Emperor Guangwu!"

In fact, Gao Jingzong has always regarded Gaoyang as the basis for his ideals. Hearing Xu Jingxuan mentioned Nanyang, Gao Jingzong couldn't help but light up: "Nanyang is good, and it's not that I haven't thought about taking Nanyang, but now Huan Wen regards Jingxiang as a taboo place. , there is a saying that how can others sleep soundly on the side of the couch, I am afraid it will not be easy for me to take Nanyang?"

"Although the weight is small, it can weigh a thousand catties! The key is to find the point of force and find the correct direction of force." Xu Jingxuan said with a smile: "When Huan Wen entered the Sima family, it started at the beginning. But he found a good idea and made good use of it. One of the strengths will turn from weak to strong within a few years."

Huan Wenneng was promoted to the governor of Jingzhou, the captain of Nanman, and the general of Anxi Zhonglang.It was mainly due to the internal power struggle of the Eastern Jin court at that time. The foreign relatives Yu Yi and Yu Bing controlled the power inside and outside the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and they were flying around, which made the important officials of the Eastern Jin Dynasty displeased.Originally, Huan Wen was Yu Yi's good friend, and the striker under his command was the young governor. However, Huan Wen took advantage of Yu Yi's serious illness and swung a knife at his benefactor, eradicating Yu's power inside and outside the court and replacing him.

Xu Jingxuan said: "Huan Wenping destroyed Cheng Han, and the second Northern Expedition, especially in August of the 12th year of Yonghe (356 AD), Huan Wen's soldiers went to Yishui (in the south of today's Luoyang City). Yao Xiang, the leader of the Qiang nationality, was besieging Luoyang. Huan Wen came to attack, withdrew his troops and returned, and fought against the water in the north of Yishui. Huan Wen personally put on armor to supervise the battle, ordered the Jin army to march forward, and finally defeated Yaoxiang and recovered Luoyang. He entered Jinyong City, paid homage to the tomb of the first emperor, and set up The mausoleum was repaired by the mausoleum. Soon, Huan Wen's squadron returned to the south, and ordered the generals to suppress Wen Lu, a bandit, and Li Hong, a demon thief, and sent their heads to Jiankang (now Nanjing, Jiangsu). Out of fear of the imperial court, Huan Wen wanted to take advantage of the great victory to launch another Northern Expedition, but the imperial court did not allow it. Instead, he ordered the vagabond Xie Wan to lead the expedition, which shows how much the imperial court fears Huan Wen."

"Sir, you are saying that whether the governor can occupy Nanyang depends on Huan Wen?" After all, Gao Jingzong is a descendant, and after a little thought, he understood Xu Jingxuan's intention.The Eastern Jin court set out to weaken Huan Wen's authority, so Huan Wen was naturally unwilling to stand still and blatantly rebel, but Huan Wen didn't dare.However, he must be very handy with the trick of raising bandits to respect themselves.

"It's nothing!" Xu Jingxuan said: "If the Lord can trust me, Jingxuan is willing to run for the Lord."

"Great kindness!" Gao Jingzong hardly thought about it, expecting Xie Wan's defeat and taking back Nanyang from the former Yan Murong family. There are too many variables, and the Xianbei cavalry is not a small army. Once they attack, they will use the strength of the dead army to defeat the enemy. Otherwise, the whole army will be defeated, even if they win by chance in the future.That would also pay a heavy price.Gao Jingzong said: "I don't know, sir, how can I cooperate with the governor?"

"It's simple, all you need is for the lord to take one of the personal tokens and the birth date, and the betrothal gift is enough!" Xu Jingxuan said with a smile: "The lord is dignified, well-spoken, and personable. Now that he is alone, he is the second daughter of Huan Wen. , both talent and appearance, is the best choice for a mate."

Hearing this, Gao Jingzong's eyeballs almost popped out: "Damn it, you actually want me to play a beauty trick?"

Xu Jingxuan said with a treacherous smile: "Your Majesty, don't worry, Huan's birth mother, Princess Nankang, is of noble birth, so I can't wrong you, My Majesty!"

"I don't know how old Huan Wen's second daughter is?" Gao Jingzong asked quietly.

Xu Jingxuan said: "Huan Bozi, the second daughter of Huanwen, was born in the third year of Yonghe (AD 348). , Jasper Nianhua. (Women sixteen is the ancient customary age for marriage).

"Ahem..." Hearing this, Gao Jingzong almost choked on his own saliva, 12 years old, primary school student, this is a beast.
