Chapter 559: Hejian Zhang Fang

"How many troops do Sima Ying and Sima Xu have in total now!" Sima Ji asked Jin Wei, and he still had to solve the real problem after yelling. After all, the war was not something he could only talk and laugh. Defeating the enemy was naturally a must-see meeting on the battlefield.

"The two vassal kings and the Luoyang Imperial Army have a total army of more than 400,000, so your highness should not be taken lightly." The frightened Jin Wei finally remembered his duties and reported solemnly, "The flags cover the sky and the sun, and the army is strict. After entering the capital, he quickly controlled the situation in the entire capital."

"More than 400,000?" Sima Ji shut his mouth. This was really a lot. An Lushan of the Tang Dynasty raised an army less than half of this number. From this, we can see that my military strength in the Great Jin Dynasty is not weak at all. Considering that the population is far inferior to other dynasties, it can actually be called a military force.

However, these troops were reimbursed during the civil war, and they waved their hands to let the Jin guards go down to rest. Not counting the soldiers in various states in the south that were quelling the rebellion, this should be the last heavy army group of the Jin Dynasty besides Sima Ji himself. As long as Sima Ying and Sima Su were resolved, the civil war between the Eight Kings Rebellion would be over.

If this force is not watery, it is really difficult to win this battle. The number has been piled up so hard that it cannot be judged by common sense. One side has 400,000 troops in a war, and there are no few examples when looking at Chinese history. This is not Sima Ji himself.

Sima Ji recalled a circle of war examples, but there was no one. Is the Battle of Changping in Qin and Zhao in the Warring States Period considered an example? It was a real war example, and it was about to be the War of Liberation.

"What order does the King of Yan asks Mo Jiang to give?" Zhang Da, Qian Ming, Cao Qian and others obeyed the call and entered the palace, and knew that Sima Ji must have something to look for them.

Sima Ji's face seemed to be burned by an iron, and asked expressionlessly, "Have you ever faced a 400,000 army in your life?" Seeing a few people, shook their heads and said, "Actually, I don't have it either. I really don't know what kind of scene this is, but I believe I should see it soon."

"Your Highness is talking about Sima Ying, who is entrenched in the capital. Your Highness is relieved. The General of the Mo will definitely serve his life to the death and let them follow Sima Yong's footsteps." Zhang Da said fearlessly, "Although the enemy is twice as high as ours, the morale between the two sides is incomparable. The General of the Mo Highness believes that all the soldiers of Youzhou will stand with Your Highness."

"The last general thinks so!" Qian Ming and Cao Qian also did not show any fear. "The King of Yan once said that once the number of soldiers reaches 100,000, it is impossible to see the specific number from the eyes. The 100,000 army will fight at the same time is the most suitable scale. Besides, you have already merged the army in Yecheng. If it really doesn't work, we can still recruit soldiers."

"No!" Sima Ji shook his head and said, "The people just need to farm well. Don't force them into the war, and there is no need. I can borrow soldiers. You should also know where there are soldiers."

"It's the wife's home!" Qian Ming knew what Sima Ji was going to think at the first time. Since he was not going to recruit soldiers from the people, there was only one place where soldiers were supplemented, that was the four Xianbei people outside the border.

"The first general married the Xianbei to the Xianbei, which was to be the idea of ​​attracting foreign aid. As expected, the last general admired him." Cao Qian said with conscience, "This way, we can avoid recruiting troops from the Central Plains and reduce the burden on the people."

"President Cao Gan, please be careful. Your Highness is not greedy for the soldiers of the four Xianbei tribes. They are completely in love with each other." Zhang Da coughed softly, not ashamed of his behavior of smoothing out the situation, and said proudly, "Your Highness does not need to secretly attack anyone, they are all open and upright."

"Yes, General Zhang Da is right." Cao Gan lowered his head decisively and agreed with Zhang Da's words. The King of Yan never secretly made plans for others, and he did it openly.

Are you two in black? Sima Ji listened to me and said slowly, "It's not greedy for family matters. A few ladies marry me. Do they see if I am in trouble? No! Even if I don't speak, they should take the initiative to speak." This is the same as scholars' affairs cannot be called stealing.

All three of them nodded and said yes. From Sima Ji's words, they could hear that their lord was preparing to open his mouth to Xianbei again, but they didn't know how to do it.

"What do you think of the title of King Pingxi?" Sima Ji suddenly blurted out, his face solemnly did not seem to be a joke, but he really wanted to ask his confidant about this title or not.

When Zhang Da heard that Sima Ji was about to draw cakes to Xianbei, he spoke, "Your Highness wants to win over them with the title of king? But this Pingxi doesn't seem to have such a title."

"Does this king still give them the title of Dai and Wei? Wouldn't that be on par with me?" Sima Ji tilted his head and asked, "You can't give title of Hejian, either the title of country or place name, you can't give it. You still have to have a difference. It would be good to use the title of General Pingxi, which is also the bottom line that I can accept."

Later, the title of Murong's family by the Eastern Jin Dynasty was King of Yan. The Murong's family was about to be King of Yan. Why did he, the King of Yan? The title of Fu Jian's family seemed to be King of Qin. Of course, the two of them also fulfilled the instructions of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and defeated the Xiongnu, which had always been hostile to the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Although in fact, Sima Ji's offer was still very low this time. He created a baseless grass-headed king, and it was not too noble to say it, or even just an empty name. Whether to be named a king or not, he would also be the leader of the tribe in the closed door. But the king is the king, which is always better than the Great Chanyu, and the Great Chief says it better.

"Send a scattered horse to the jurisdiction of the four Xianbei peoples and ask them to come to Yecheng to discuss matters. I will immediately write a letter to my wife." Sima Ji finally came to this point and saw how many soldiers and horses his father-in-law and brother-in-law had to help him fight.

However, with the population of the other three tribes besides the Tuoba clan, even if they have full assistance, the number of people sending troops may not be too many. But that doesn't matter. The Tuoba clan is the largest but the poorest tribe after all, and the other three tribes are much stronger than the Tuoba clan. It should not be as good as the one who picks his feet.

"The Jin Wei, which was used in the Xianbei tribes, spread the news that the Tuoba family was rewarded, and also belittled Sima Ying and Sima Xu, saying that the Jin army under their command could not be compared with the Youzhou border army. This king needed the Xianbei army to send troops, but just pulled the number of troops on both sides. I would never be afraid of him in the same number of people. Also, I would rather spread this statement than the whole border if I was unwilling to borrow troops or were suggested by my advisers. I forced myself to do so and spread this remark as soon as possible."

By rewarding the Tuoba clan, the greed of the other three ministries will naturally be formally enthroned for the leader. However, this premise is that Sima Ji needs to win, and if he loses the battle, the matter of being named king will naturally be invalid. He cannot show that he is too eager for others, so the foundation laid before is still very solid, and the army under his command can conquer and fight well and be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

As for the last reason, it is even simpler. Taking the Duan Xianbei cannot defeat Liu Yuan as an example, the combat effectiveness of the Xianbei is actually just like this. Now the Eight Kings Rebellion is not yet exhausted, and it is not the turn of Liu Yuan’s monkey to dominate the king. The 400,000 army under Sima Ying must be much stronger than Liu Yuan’s five Huns.

If they knew the real situation of the Jin Dynasty's painstaking arrangement of the military town, what should they do if they don't come? Since they are all family members, the move of the King of Yan is definitely not a fraud, and at best it is a lie of kindness. As long as they come, he will naturally have a way to let them fight with him.

"I will write a letter to Jicheng immediately, and I will spread this kind of remarks throughout the Xianbei area as soon as possible." Qian Ming, a member of the Jin Wei, knew all kinds of ghost tricks from the King of Yan, so he directly bowed his hands and left the hall after seeing him.

"Go and urge Li Shan and Liu Heng. When is it time? Liu Heng's journey south is long. I can understand. Is the matter in Jizhou over? " Sima Ji urged him with a muddy head, and he beat Zhang Fang endlessly?

Sima Ji had to understand Liu Heng in the Fengyun Rebellion Army in Xuzhou, because there was a backbone force in this rebel army that was extremely stubborn in combat, so he could always deal with Liu Heng.

Liu Heng's letter to Yecheng stated why this rebel was so difficult. Sima Ji no longer urged Liu Heng to win as soon as possible, and just turn to a steady battle to win.

An old acquaintance, it can be said that this rebel army hated him, and Liu Yuan had the intention to surrender, but Sima Ji's infamous scared Liu Yuan, resulting in Liu Yuan no chance. How did Sima Ji's infamous come about? It's a long time since it originated in the Southern Expedition, which was the beginning of Sima Ji's infamous reputation.

After the southern expedition, in order to dig the canal, he took the people of Linyi back to dig the canal. During this period, these prisoners of war were beaten, humiliated, hungered, and a large number of deaths were often accompanied by him. Sima Ji turned around and returned to Jicheng to enjoy his happiness, forgetting these people.

However, these Linyi people did not die. The country was destroyed and the family was destroyed. The long-term abuse and heavy work left only more than 10,000 people. Finally, they got this opportunity when Zhang Chang rebelled and joined the Fengyun rebels who attacked Huainan. These Linyi people had extraordinary obsession with him, the King of Yan, and would definitely not surrender, because they knew the consequences of the surrender. They had just passed two days and would never want to be beasts again.
