Chapter 243 The Three Han Responses
Sima Ji is now located around Seoul, the most prosperous South Korean tribe in later generations. However, the number of three Korean tribes here is rapidly decreasing at one per day, and the clearing efficiency of the Jurchen Heavy Arrow Camp is extremely high.
In fact, Sima Ji can say that he likes this simple and obedient team very much, but after the Han and Tang dynasties, such teams often belong to the enemy. On the ladders built by sampans, the captured men and women slowly boarded the ship under the surveillance of the soldiers of Pingzhou. I believe that they would buy a good price when they arrived in the mainland.
The King of Yan is now completely abandoned. Anyway, there are already many Hu people in the mainland, so it is not a problem to have more. At worst, the military town will use a spoonful of stew when it raises a military army. Sima Ji said that one week would be given, that would be a week. Zhang Da and Li Shan took the Jurchens along the river and made the Han River in the north and south into an unmanned area from north to south.
During this time, there was a storm on the Nanhan River. Countless tribe remnants formed a team, three or five people, and some even ran for life alone. The river was full of ragged fugitives.
A river is a safe place, but it is not so easy to get through. The Jurchens behind them are chasing each other tighter and tighter, with heavy arrows flying out of the jungle, like the god of death rushing out of hell, trying to kill all the refugees who escaped from birth. By the river and in the water, corpses lie there.
Under the cover of death, many people jumped into the river directly, while the Jurchens on the shore still shot arrows with bows and shot dogs in pain. The blood dyed the river water red, and the bodies rose and fell in the river water.
"General, these Jurchens are really barbaric, but they are indeed very fast. They have destroyed the Sanhan tribe here, and a few fish that have escaped from the net have fled to the south." Liu Yi, who was already a marquis in the Goguryeo War, was shocked by the progress made in the past few days.
"Is it barbaric? It seems that this is the case. Isn't it like this in war? Just a few decades ago, the Central Plains was not the same. It's not that I like to use these fierce and cruel people." Sima Ji, who had a military book, looked up and looked at Liu Yi without a surprise. He did not see the warlords in the late Han Dynasty. He shirked responsibility and said, "You Pingzhou Army don't need to do it yourself, just stay aside and watch. Check the military orders, and maybe the tough battle will come soon."
"If you really fight, you can't stop it. This time it's not a siege. Our total force is only 20,000. Will you do that then? It won't work hard." Sima Ji said with a smile, "Be careful, and all of us are buried in a foreign land when not."
"General, the Pingzhou army must serve the people to die." Liu Yi quickly assured.
"Well! Then I will see you personally on the battlefield, how can you serve you when you are?" Sima Ji picked up the military book and nodded vaguely. The King of Yan continued to pretend that he was winning thousands of miles away.
Why did the military merit system not spread to later dynasties? One thing is that the combat power inspired by the military merit system during civil war was also cruel. When killing people, the soldiers would not distinguish between Hu and Han people. They were all heads and had no essential difference. Furthermore, it was too easy to kill good people and take credit for killing good people in peacetime, so later dynasties gradually evolved into being a soldier and earning salary.
It is not unreasonable that soldiers and bandits are always placed side by side. The military system of the Jin Dynasty is similar to that of the Qin and Han Dynasties. When the military towns rise, don’t expect them to love the people like their sons. Bandits are soldiers, and soldiers are bandits. The King of Yan will not pretend to be a moral saint.
Using his usual means, he swept the here like a gust of wind, and the Sanhan tribe here complained. The influence naturally spread out immediately. Now the Jin army obviously looked like the people who came from were not kind.
Moreover, he occupied the land between the north and south Han Rivers. Although there was a little back-to-water array between the two rivers, he actually had to attack, retreat or defend, or go east or west. This was equivalent to two bound prisoners. Sima Ji now had a mace in his hand, and I don’t know who would choose to smash it down.
In fact, the Pingzhou Army itself has not felt this clear. What is uncomfortable is that it has learned that the Sanhan tribe, who has already learned that the Jin army has moved south, escaped from the Nanhan River, has already explained the local tragic situation in detail, and looks like tears are heard. It is so sad that those who see and hear.
In the Jin Dynasty, the so-called Central Plains immigration had long since disappeared. As Sima Ji said, the immigrants who migrated here had basically been assimilated. Among the current Sanhan tribe, the leaders actually came out of the local Mahan tribe and were completely local forces.
This time, the Jin army was not well-known. As soon as they crossed the river, they killed the local Sanhan tribe, which suddenly made all tribe leaders frightened. When the Jin army was still consolidating the Jiangbei base, many leaders of the Sanhan tribe began to contact each other to discuss countermeasures, which may have not happened in a century.
The leaders of the three Korean tribes were all involved. Among them, Mahan, as the host, almost all the leaders of dozens of tribes belonging to him appeared, and only a few leaders who had already sank into the river were unable to participate in this discussion. The most obvious thing for these tribe leaders now is, what is the intention of the Jin army? Should they come to show their power or destroy themselves?
However, judging from the fate of several tribes north of the Han River, it seems to be completely different from the Jin Dynasty's normal power. The bloody fact tells them that if they deal with it this time, the good days for the leaders of their tribes will be over.
"The people who came from the Great Jin Dynasty this time are not good. The Central Plains Dynasty wants to be famous for its masters. However, in this Jin Dynasty, our troops have been to the Central Plains to pay tribute, and officials at all levels in the world are very greedy, untrustworthy, and cruel and shameless. The army attacks did not make any noise at all. As soon as it appeared, it slaughtered the village and destroyed the village, which simply did not leave us a way to survive."
"We three Han have always been respectful. I don't know why we were so devastated? Why did they treat us like this?"
Sima Ji would have been surprised if he was here. Unexpectedly, the shamelessness of the Jin Dynasty's gentry, even these small foreign countries, had clearly seen it, and they had become so famous.
"When Zhang Tong went south to rob Goguryeo, didn't he rely on us to help resist? Now he is shameless to deal with us. He blames you, son-in-law, what else do you have to say now?"
The silence of the Ruiji looked up at the tribe leader who was in trouble, but in the end he did not speak. His wife was the daughter of the previous prefect of Daefang County. It was precisely because of this that she had always maintained a military alliance with Daefang County. Whether it was Goguryeo or other tribes invaded Daefang County, he sent troops to help within his ability.
Because of this relationship, after the Jin army marched south in a large scale, there were no tiles everywhere, and many leaders of other tribes pointed their finger at him. So many people are attacking each other. He also held his anger and was silent.
"Okay, when is it now? Do you still have to kill each other?" King Mahan glared, looked at Juji with an inexplicable gaze, and then turned elsewhere. He felt a little tired. Although King Mahan was the nominal leader of Mahan, his subordinate tribes were all their own leaders, and there were dozens of leaders. If it weren't for the Jin army's approach, he wouldn't have the ability to gather so many tribal leaders at once.
The atmosphere of the entire tent was quiet because of the reprimand of King Mahan. Although they usually regard the words of King Mahan as the incest, they also knew that what they needed at this time was unity.
"Now the Jin army is coming in full force, and the villages are destroyed and we will not be able to live. The road before us is to resist. It is impossible to rely solely on ourselves. Only by uniting the other two departments can we resist the invasion of the Jin army. If we are still arguing at this time, those who have sank to the river will be our fate."
The words of King Mahan were very skillful and did not put his destiny on the mercy of the Jin army. Sure enough, as soon as he spoke, there was a burst of cheers in the tent. The leaders of each tribe all expressed their desire to resist. No matter what the result was, they would always try a battle.
The fighting spirit has never been so high, because the Jin army has made such a big noise, it is impossible to eliminate all the blockade news. Some of the fish that missed the net reported the scale of the Jin army, giving the King of Mahan an illusion that he could compete.
"When the other two tribes approached, I will inform them of this news immediately, especially Benhan. This is the time for our three tribes to unite." King Mahan breathed a sigh of relief. This feeling of power in his hands has been missing for a long time. The development of each tribe is becoming less and less concerned about his own king, especially Baekje. When he thought of this, King Mahan looked at the blame in a concealed manner.
The King of Reprimand, who has almost become the target of public criticism, may be the most depressing time in recent years. If it weren't for his tribe's strong soldiers, it would probably be possible that he would be killed on the spot. He would have a gloomy face when he returned to his tribe.
"What's wrong with your husband? Is it because of the invasion of the Jin army?" Seeing him coming back with a gloomy face, his wife Baozi asked carefully.
"What else is there except this matter? They want to kill me directly." King Zhiji breathed a sigh of relief, "Because of my wife, I have been in good relationships with Dafang County for many years. I asked myself that I had never killed the people of the Jin Dynasty. Instead, I sent troops to help because of several times. How could this happen now?"
"Husband, Pingzhou belonging to the county of the county, the Dongyi School Guard above was controlled by the King of Yan. He sent troops to attack and destroy Goguryeo in the middle of winter. If his husband and the Sanhan tribe stood together, it would be in danger." Baohua sighed lightly, "It's not that I'm talking to the Great Jin Dynasty, but that once the war begins, the chances of victory are too small."
