Chapter five hundred and sixty seventh east and west

All the talents in the world are in the capital. Sima Ying just raised her arms and shouted, and the gentry men who were cut into sausages by King Yan flocked to him. They all had tooth hatred with Sima Ji, and basically they could ignore the possibility of rebellion and surrender to the enemy. The King of Yan seized their property, even if he left a part of them, this was still an unbearable operation. Taking money was like killing his parents? No, this was much more serious than killing his parents.

The entire capital had already unified the mind. The King of Yan did not eliminate the reluctance of the Great Jin Dynasty. Such a vassal king who did not respect the gentry. Joining the mud legs of the soldiers in the army was a threat to the whole world. They were even ready to instigate the four Xianbei tribes and complete the mission of eliminating the King of Yan. In the face of the fate of the entire class, the Hu people seemed so cute.

The Hu people may cause trouble, but with hundreds of thousands of troops of the crown prince, what can the Hu people do? In the face of a bright future to kill Sima Ji, the Hu people are the targets of their alliance. The Hu people may cause trouble to the world, but the King of Yan asked the gentry to die. In the face of the comfort of the whole world and the good days of the gentry, most people chose the latter.

Not only were they prepared to instigate the Xianbei, but there were even Gaomen who had sent people across the river to let the Jiangdong gentry stand with them. This was no longer the time for conflict between the north and the south, but this was the internal conflict between the gentry and the King of Yan. This was the conflict between them and the King of Yan. Various operations and strategies were staged every moment.

However, there is only one person who shoulders the expectations of our great Jin gentry, the crown prince Sima Ying. The court officials naturally knew the real situation of being a son today. It is simply a dream to expect the emperor to suppress the King of Yan. It is better to rely on Sima Ying, after all, I underestimate you.

It can be said that because Sima Ji cut off the head of the Hebei High Sect, the current crown prince seemed so unpopular. In the past, they thought it was a good thing to have an emperor who could not manage the government. Now they support Sima Ying in performing the emperor's power. As long as they kill the King of Yan, they can make the world stable again. It can be said that Sima Ying has now gained the support of almost all the gentry, and her prestige is even stronger than Sima Yan who usurped the throne.

Sima Ying, who was only 24 years old, had already felt the feeling of power. Now he shouldered the expectations of the entire gentry clan in the world, with many soldiers and many generals and talented people. All the aides of the gentry who entered the palace expressed their infinite loyalty to the Crown Brother, and were even willing to contribute money and efforts to support the Crown Brother to wipe out the rebels and restore peace to the world.

All of this made Sima Ying full of confidence. Didn’t he see Sima Ji even use the Hu people outside the Great Wall? His own camp represents the backbone of the world. How could the King of Yan, who condescend to the nobles and the Hu people, be his opponent?

Sima Ying naturally didn't know that if Sima Ji, the King of Yan, did not appear, he would be the vassal king who took the Hu people for himself. After his death, he was carried out by Liu Yuanshile for revenge.

Now that Sima Ji has walked his path, he seems so great and glorious now and right. He has become a representative of defending the Great Jin Empire, and Sima Ji has become a rebel who everyone despises. The root of all this comes from Sima Ji cutting down the heads of many gentry in Yecheng. In a sense, he should be grateful to Sima Ji. Without Sima Ji, he would not have responded so much, just like now.

The movements in the capital were naturally quickly captured by the Jin guards and sent people to convey to Sima Ji. He had just completed the military farming work and received good news. General Huwei Liu Heng had led the Youzhou rush cavalry to defeat the rebels of Fengyun in Xuzhou. Feng Yun fled to Yangzhou under the cover of Linyi people. Now Xuzhou has settled down.

The impact of Zhang Chang's rebellion will not continue to penetrate into the Central Plains for the time being. This is a good thing. The south of the Yangtze River has not been developed in this era. Even if Zhang Chang makes trouble in the south, it will not cause any major trouble. What's more, the Zhang Chang's rebels have actually fallen apart. All the generals sent out to lead the troops have become bandits who have been counted as one day.

To put it more selfishly, the pressure is all on the Jiangdong gentry. Even if they want to protect themselves, they will resolutely suppress the Zhang Chang Rebellion. They will not care about the decisive battle between the two northern vassal kings. This is still a good thing for Sima Ji. No matter where the gentry belongs, just don’t come out to cause trouble at this time.

For the Jin Dynasty, the most dangerous time of this rebellion had passed, and it also gave up the battlefield to the two major military groups confronting the north. The whole world was paying attention to the result of this battle. From the gentry level, the King of Yan was of course absolutely weak. Not only did he have become a rebel from the vassal king being slandered as a rebel, but he deliberately starved the vassal people to death in Linyi and Goguryeo. He built large-scale construction, conscripted corvee labor, and made barbarians outside the plot. Every single thing was dug out and criticized by the Central Plains gentry who were not outside his control territory.

Every day, Sima Ji can see a new crime of his own. There is a feeling that you don’t know that I am so powerful without saying that I don’t know that I am so powerful. However, some crimes are very contradictory. Since he killed Linyi in the south and Goguryeo in the north, these two are considered barbarians, right? Is there some conflict with the plots of the Hu people behind? Are the Li Te brothers under Sima Ying not considered Hu people?

Since they said yes, then that's right. After all, there are actually a few Xianbei leaders in Yecheng. The King of Yan naturally cannot talk about class for the young wife's father and brother. It is best to have strict hierarchies of these alien races. Otherwise, isn't it difficult to control, the upper route is always less difficult than the lower route. However, within the Great Jin Empire, the King of Yan has always had a relationship with the gentry, and he had no way to take the upper route. He forced himself to use the Seven-Injustice to incite injustice to the gentry.

Not only did he not talk about class, Sima Ji also clearly gave Murong Wei, Duan Wuchen, Yuwen Xunyan and others a reassurance that the title of king is definitely not a blank check. He is willing to use the lives of the gentry of the Great Jin Dynasty to fulfill his promise to be king after the matter is completed.

"King Yan, this is the list of generals appointed by Sima Ying. You can take a look!" Qian Ming sneaked in from outside the hall and confirmed that there were no idle people waiting for him before taking out the secret letter in his arms. The idle people in his eyes were naturally the father and brother of the young lady.

Sima Ji took the secret letter and opened it up, and compared the name and hometown on it bit by bit, he said in a secret test, "Oh, I am really a pillar of my country in the Great Jin Dynasty. Eighty-most of them are from the noble family. Sima Ying really responded to it. Now he usurped the throne directly and believed that the people on these lists would support it, right? Or are they waiting to officially defeat me before persuading me?"

Just after a glance, Sima Ji looked at the rows of names with his hometown and knew what the components of these people were. After all, there were so many high gentry families that could not be remembered. He knew that Shi Chong was from a poor family. If he was a little confused about Shi Chong's origin, he could actually be with another person and knew what the gentry was like.

Liu Yuan, the chief commander of the five tribes who had died in Bingzhou, was a descendant of the Xiongnu Shanyu and commanded the Southern Xiongnu for a hundred years. His origin was a standard poor family according to the standards of the Jin Dynasty.

"Right Sima Kaifeng Zheng Zhun? Right Changshi Hongnong Yang Zhun? Central Army Sima Hedong Pei Wu, Left Changshi Fanyang Lu Zhi, Shu County Du Lie, Langya Wang Cheng, Taiyuan Wang Zhang, Qingzhou Wang Kan, Hedong Wei Yan, Yingchuan Xun Yue"

Behind each of the names of the Zheng family of Kaifeng, the Yang family of Hongnong, the Pei family of Hedong, the Wei family of Hedong, and the Xun family of Yingchuan are the famous gentry clans, and there are also many base camps of the high gentry clans. They are now in the hands of Sima Ji. Now that he sees such a list, he feels like returning home.

"My great Jin is all about the crown prince." Sima Jipao curled his lips and said, "Qian Ming, there is a trend of sending troops."

"There have been some changes, I believe the army will be heading east soon." Qian Ming's expression was a little nervous when he spoke, but it was not a negative emotion, a pure instinctive reaction of the arrival of a war.

"I will also be in a rushing westward." Sima Ji said without any answer, "Sima Ying has not been out of the capital for a long time. At such an age, she is already the crown prince who is the general of the world's soldiers and horses. All the kings have always been respectful to him. In terms of identity, he is extremely noble and the younger brother of the emperor. In terms of power, he is the general of the world, and he has never suffered a loss. He has been smooth sailing all the time. It is normal to have a fight with me. I have given him this opportunity. I have been waiting for a long time. I have sent the order and the general will start tomorrow."

After a long period of preparation, both sides now feel that the time is ripe and can no longer ignore the other party’s saving. Everyone knows that they are the only opponents in the world. As long as the other party is solved, the remaining problems will no longer be problems.

The entire Sizhou and Hebei soldiers were mobilized by Sima Ying and Sima Ji. They all knew in their hearts that the other party should not be underestimated. Even if they could defeat them, the price they paid would not be small. The King of Yan had a disadvantage in military strength, but four Xianbei troops went south to help, while the Emperor's Crown brother had the best support from most of the gentry's high sects.

Almost at the forefront, Sima Ying made a decision to divide the troops after appointing the candidates for the lieutenant general. Sima Xu, King of Fanyang, led 80,000 troops from the southeast of the capital to enter Yuzhou, where he had already left the town, and threatened Hebei from the side. Sima Ying himself led a large army, including the Luoyang Imperial Army, a total of 360,000 troops, and began to advance eastward in five directions.

It is naturally impossible to complete it silently when the mobilization of hundreds of thousands of troops involved. At the beginning of Sima Ying's action, countless news from the open and secrets were far from reaching Yecheng. The news that Sima Xu, King of Fanyang, led his troops out of the southeast to Yuzhou came. Sima Ji knew that his judgment was correct and Sima Ying would definitely make a decision to divide the troops.
