Chapter 303 Guanzhong Drama
If you want to do something, Sima Ji must rely on the most disciplined group. Whether in ancient times or modern times, the most popular group is often the army, which is always disciplined than the poor. You should know that even in later generations, the military government model is common.
"I am telling me that the imperial guards were divided into various troops to rush to the 14 counties and 64 counties of the 14 counties and 64 counties of the 2nd prefectures of Yong and Qin, as well as the governors, prefects, county magistrates, and all cities cannot be spared. Investigate all Hu tribes under their jurisdiction, determine the household registration of all Hu tribes in Yong and Qin, and at the same time find the people who are extremely guilty and punished. Remember to be a bowl of water and be fair." As soon as he thought of this, Sima Ji quickly summoned the generals of the imperial guards to discuss matters in the central army.
Taking this opportunity to erase the trauma in Guanzhong, Sima Ji was actually unsure of whether he could do it, but it should always have some effect. Even if he could lose one place of turmoil in the future, he would be able to preserve some vitality at that time.
"Your Highness of the King of Yan? Are you planning to let us go to various prefectures and counties to sort out our household registration?" Meng Guan asked in a little uncertainty.
"That's not just that. This battle is very expensive and needs to be repaid from some places, right?" Sima Ji showed his white teeth, meaning inexplicably, "The Hu people who dared to rebel with Qi Wannian have almost been cleaned up. It is a bit unreasonable to bully those orphans and widows, but there are also many local gentry and local tyrants in Guanzhong, and each of them has clean hands, which is just for making up for the losses."
Sima Ji said it very clearly. Although the imperial guards were at the feet of the emperor, the life of ordinary soldiers was like this. This time, so many people were killed and injured, it was absolutely not forgot. After eating the plaintiff and the defendant, it was not the first time he did this. This time it was just the first time he was in the mainland.
"Catch some powerful men and children of the gentry who have incited ethnic conflicts. Don't worry, you can just wait for them to come to catch people. I will give you a chance to replenish your losses." Sima Ji finally spread his hands, "I am responsible for everything."
"Your Highness is so kind to us." As soon as he finished speaking, the generals and officials in the tent were suddenly excited. Look, why would Sima Ji be a prince? What he said really makes sense. Why would the imperial guards fight bloody battles?
"Ten thousand imperial guards followed me to Luoyang, and the others were sent by General Meng Guan, and they finished the work before December." Sima Ji fiddled with his fingers and said in an uncertain tone, "Then? Will it start tomorrow?"
"Abide by the order!" A group of generals bowed and took the order, leaving the tent to share the good news with their subordinates.
This time, Sima Ji wanted to seek benefits for the Luoyang Imperial Army under the guise of soothing future troubles. As for the relationship between the Hu and Han in Guanzhong, it is actually not important at all. Maybe he really can't solve it.
However, if you want to satisfy the Luoyang Imperial Army, it would be simpler. Just find a group to rob and you can succeed.
The King of Yan did not live in Luoyang forever, but it was impossible to say that he had no thoughts about the Central Imperial Guards. However, he could not enter the court as an official just because he wanted to win over the Central Imperial Guards. In this way, the King of Yan, who was gathering in important places in the capital, was like a white lotus, and he really couldn't guarantee that he could become the final winner.
But in addition to conspiracy, there is another way to take advantage of the situation and guide the results he wants most. So far, Sima Ji thinks he is still playing well, so it is understandable to use this rebellion and let the powerful people in Guanzhong to bleed.
Sima Ji didn't care about the Hu people, and he didn't care about the powerful people in Guanzhong. The most important thing was to benefit the soldiers of the Central Imperial Army who followed him, but who would give this benefit?
Sima Ji must not be able to do it by himself. Although he can definitely afford it, a prince who comes out of town to show kindness to the Central Imperial Guard is equivalent to setting a target on himself, which is too eye-catching.
But this time, the opportunity to go to the expedition is rare, and it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to win over the Central Imperial Guards, so we have to think of a way. If we can't attack forcefully, we can take it out, and if we can't go against it, we can get around. If the King of Yan doesn't bleed, he can make others bleed.
The next day, the troops were divided into two groups, and Sima Ji went straight to Chang'an to wait, and the divided troops went to other prefectures and counties. From this day on, the two prefectures of Yong and Qin entered a state of chaos. The major powerful men immediately knew that the soldiers and bandits were all, and the ancients did not deceive me.
All this has nothing to do with the King of Yan. He was pretending to be preparing to return to the court in Chang'an. Should the King of Yan go back to the court immediately? The person he cares about the most is the King of Qin. Even if he didn't say it clearly, Sima Ji could feel it.
Fengyi County, Fufeng County, Anding County, a group of soldiers came to the county town and captured some powerful children in the name of provoking a fight between Hu and Han. This was just the beginning. More imperial soldiers had not taken action yet, and they were still on the way.
The rebels of Qi Wannian were just wiped out. At this time, the soldiers of the Luoyang Imperial Army were halos, at least in the eyes of the people. Now, under the name of rectifying the chaos, they rushed into the homes of powerful people from all over the country to arrest people. The people of all prefectures and counties applauded, because these powerful people were similar to those of the Hu people, and they were all oppressors. China has not lacked enemies of the rich since ancient times.
In a few days, Luoyang's imperial guards arrived more and more counties, and the number of powerful men arrested gradually increased. Soon, the imperial guards arrested people was like a torrent sweeping over the land of Guanzhong. At this time, some families finally began to unable to sit still. Some families could not understand that the King of Yan treated them like this, and the best object of justice was the King of Qin Sima Jian, who was in Chang'an.
"If you can understand, understand, if you can't understand, get out. This time I'm going to mow the grass. Luoyang's imperial guards suffered too much and the soldiers lived a difficult life. If they didn't pick up a little oil, I can't give the imperial guards an explanation."
Sima Ji sat opposite the Qin King Sima Jian, and said his purpose without any concealment. He was also very tough. There was no need to discuss this matter. For the harmonious relationship between the King of Yan and the Luoyang Imperial Army, someone must have to bleed.
As for what the Guanzhong tyrants feel, Sima Ji patted his butt and left. No matter what the Guanzhong tyrants commented on him, if you have the affinity, come to Youzhou to find trouble for yourself.
"Qingxuan, these families have many respected elders in the court, and offend people." Sima Jian said with a plain face, "To be honest, many people have come to Chang'an to find me, hoping that you can be more comfortable. You have arrested hundreds of people, and almost all the families with some reputation in Guanzhong have been caught. When can they stop?"
"King of Qin, Ji is not going to stop at this moment. Of course, Ji also knows that this matter has made the King of Qin bother. But I have my difficulties!" Sima Ji Bubu said in a humble manner, "When I leave, King of Qin can scold me behind the scenes to vent his anger for the Guanzhong family, but now?"
That's all, until the end, although Sima Ji was in Chang'an, he was not afraid of putting pressure on Sima Jian. The reason was simple. No matter how good the relationship between the powerful Guanzhong and Sima Jian was, the King of Yan and King of Qin were also the same surname.
Moreover, when facing Luoyang, the Qin King and Yan King were still in the united front, which had nothing to do with the harmonious relationship between Sima Ji and Jia Nanfeng. No matter how good the relationship between uncle and sister-in-law was, it could not change the fact that Jia was a relative of the foreigner and Sima was a royal family. Sima Jian knew this, and Sima Ji knew it very well.
"Don't be too greedy. Then I will suppress it for a while, and Qingxuan will let it go." Sima Jian did not force it too much. Just as Sima Ji thought, the relationship between the King of Qin and the King of Yan was obviously a little more important than the relationship between the King of Qin and the powerful Guanzhong.
As long as Sima Ji is not too much, it is completely understandable that the King of Qin will pick out a few unlucky guys to kill the chicken to scare the monkey.
"Ji knew that this time I wouldn't kill too many people, just to make money." Sima Ji replied tacitly, "What is the explanation for the Hu tribe? It's just to fool them. I just want to..." I am poor together, but this sentence has not been said.
For the powerful people in Guanzhong, the coldness of Guanzhong came earlier than in previous years. Qi Wannian's rebellion caused many powerful people to suffer losses. Then Luoyang's imperial guards advanced westward and swept across the rebels in a flash. Before they could be happy, Luoyang's imperial guards quickly turned their guns and staged a big show of sending troops and bandits, causing the powerful people in Guanzhong to die.
For a moment, the major tyrants sent people to Chang'an to wait here to meet the Qin King Sima Jian, telling the rudeness of the Luoyang Imperial Guards and the arrogant and domineering King Yan clearly did not take the Qin King seriously, such words.
Sima Jian originally thought that Sima Ji's move was too disadvantageous, but when he saw these representatives of various families with anxious expressions, he came back to his senses after realizing it. This was not a bad thing. Taking advantage of the situation, he could also become a good thing.
"This is all Luoyang's idea, and I am not talking about you." Sima Jian felt relieved as soon as he thought of this and said slowly, "There have been chaos in Guanzhong several times. I know that Luoyang is dissatisfied with us, but you still let the other side seize the opportunity? What should you do if you ask me to do? To be honest, this is not the problem of King Yan."
"What the King of Qin means is that King Yan is just giving us the order to trouble us?" The King of Qin said, and naturally someone would respond immediately. There is no shortage of people who think they are smart in this world, and they need to show their clever side in specific occasions.
"I know your difficulties, but this time I don't think about getting out of here. Someone will definitely not be able to escape. But if I want to save my life, I can speak." Sima Jian also looked heavy and said, "Although I am a prince, I have no choice this time."
