Chapter five hundred and sixty fifth why are you fighting
"Why can you do it if you have only 10,000 invaders around you?" Cao Gan said with concern when he heard it, "Even if you are a king of Yan, you have experienced many battles, there is too little power to stay by your side."
It's a big deal to go through many battles. When it's really dangerous, Sima Ji can definitely do something to leave the entire army and run away by himself. He is not prepared to command a group of Xianbei cavalry whom he doesn't know how to do Sima Ying.
"The sooner you defeat Sima Su, the safer my situation will be." Sima Ji seemed to have thought solemnly for a moment and decided to leave a thousand cavalry and be ready to make sure that things are not good at any time.
After reassuring these confidants, Sima Ji decided to give Lu He a face-to-face message and formulate a detailed plan to escape back to Jicheng. This is not selfish, but the King of Yan has always considered the worst case.
When he really went to the battlefield, he stayed with a group of father-in-law and brother-in-law, and did not expect divine weapons to descend from the sky. Anyway, Sima Ying could not have more cavalry than his own, so it would be better to fly kites and fight and retreat.
The King of Yan took the initiative to be in danger and put on an attitude of being determined to leave, which made the whole atmosphere tense and solemn. These confidant generals felt that the responsibility was heavy and did not know what to say for a while.
Sima Ji didn't like this occasion that gradually set off the atmosphere, and said calmly, "You really come to the battlefield and you can play freely. I don't expect you to be like Wei Huo Reborn, but after years of getting along, I guess you won't become Li Guangli. I have given you all the accumulated responsibilities in Youzhou. Sima's Xuchang troops are no more than 100,000, and the elite troops in many years have double the strength. If you fail like Li Guangli to fight Dayuan, don't talk about what I am like, the people of Youzhou will kill you."
No matter from any angle, Emperor Wu of Han's expedition to Dayuan was a failure, and Dayuan was not a powerful country in the Western Regions. No matter how many people in Wusun Kangju could make it bow their heads. Sima Ji used this example to show how solid the foundation these confidant generals had and how undefeated they should not be defeated.
"Don't worry, even if the last generals try their best, they will quickly defeat Sima Su." Zhang Da took the lead in expressing his opinion, and the generals agreed. The King of Yan said so, and they felt that it should be done.
"Don't underestimate the enemy. Sima Xu's fiefdom is south of Yan State. The two countries are neighbors. He is not ignorant of the matters of Yan State. This elder is not the King of Hejian. It is almost impossible to expect his character to be aggressive. This is also a tough battle. Now no strategy is more useful as the soldiers' death. Tomorrow, all the generals and officers of the army will be summoned to the palace to discuss matters. I want them to understand why they are fighting."
"King of Yan, all the generals and officers of the army are here? There are two thousand of them of grades." Zhang Bin heard it and was confused in the wind. There was also such operation, which I have never heard of since ancient times.
"Two thousand is only two thousand, let them stand side by side, the Tongquetai is not not big enough." Sima Ji decided to hold a conference so that all the soldiers of the army could understand what they were about to face. After he arrived in Yecheng, he also did something, such as killing many gentry and then dividing their land. This was not a big deal. Even the Hejian Kingdom was distributed to the surrendered soldiers of Yecheng by Sima Ji. Now it is time for these people to give back.
The King of Yan must let these surrendered soldiers understand that once the king was defeated, these gentry returning home groups would take back all the land he had distributed, and let the soldiers return to the military framework, and be on par with the Hu slaves he bought from the Great Wall.
I have never heard of it since ancient times. Haven’t I heard of it after liberation? Otherwise, how could the artillery party be defeated?
The Tongquetai was surrounded by the Dragon Que Camp. Sima Ji had known for a long time that the ancient Chinese also loved to watch the fun. He directly asked Cao Gan to lead the people to block the streets and held a two-thousand-person meeting with concentration.
Faced with the two vassal kings joining forces at any time, Sima Ji showed unprecedented solemnity this time. Don’t blame him for using the ultimate move. It was all forced by you clan relatives. Since ancient times, few losers in the royal family have ended well. Sima Ji must first ensure that he cannot lose. As for what he will do in the future.
Now he is preparing to talk about class issues with these newly promoted and replaced the generals from the ninth-grade troop to the fifth-grade goalkeeper. Sima Ji was wearing red clothes and holding a sword engraved with weights and measures. In front of the two thousand generals and schoolmen sitting on the ground, he looked forced and full of bitterness and revenge.
"What's wrong with me? I just gave soldiers a basic treatment. Isn't it necessary for soldiers to defend their country and get some land? This is the world of our Sima family, and everyone under the emperor is equal. I don't believe that the soldiers of the army who have given their lives and fought bloody battles for my great Jin Dynasty like to treat them like slaves? When did joining the army become such a despicable choice? Well? Why did those high-ranking officials so despise them?"
Sima Ji's shouting loudly triggered the whispers of all the generals present. In essence, after defeating Sima Yong, he had already replaced 90% of the generals and schools according to his background. In other words, the generals and schools present in Yecheng this time were all beneficiaries after he destroyed the officials of Yecheng and the King of Hejian.
Not to mention that among these two thousand people, half of them were from Youzhou, and they were all trained to the top.
"Even when Emperor Wu was alive, he was confronted by the high officials from the gentry. It was because our Sima family was born in the army and our Sima family respected these high schools that had been prosperous for a hundred years, but when did they respect soldiers?"
Sima Ji was strong and confident when he roared. Of course he would do this, because this matter was true. It was just that Sima Ji changed it. In fact, after Sima Yan ascended the throne, he was contradicted by his concubines. He said angrily, "I am worthy of being the child of the general!" In the Jin Dynasty, where the aristocratic family system was serious, military generals were synonymous with uneducatedness.
This concubine refuted that your grandfather Sima Yi, who attacked Gongsun Yuan in the north to pacify Liaodong, and refused Zhuge Liang in the west to weaken Shu Han. These are the glory of the Sima family. Without the military achievements of the general, where can there be the Jin Dynasty? Sima Yan's father and grandparents were all military generals, and he was also the descendants of military generals. Mocking himself was equivalent to mocking his ancestors, which was equivalent to laughing at his 50 steps and a hundred steps.
Except for the private affairs of the inner officials and palace maids present on the same day, only the officials who recorded the emperor's daily life knew, the royal family naturally knew, and few gentry knew. These newly promoted generals and schools naturally knew nothing, but it did not mean that they were not curious. Sima Ji said this, which brought him closer to these generals and schools.
