Five hundred and eighty-eighth chapter timid
The emphasis on culture and neglect of military affairs also existed in the Jin Dynasty. Although civil and military officials had not yet separated in this era, and there was no gap between military generals after the Song Dynasty, there was a lower level than civil officials, but there was already a trend in this regard. Sima Ji didn't need to speak up personally. As long as the people who joined the army knew it clearly, the deeper the soldiers at the bottom of the country, the more they felt, the more they had, the more they had, the more they had, the more they had, the more they had, the more they had, the more they had, the more they had, the more they had, the more they had, the more they had, the more they had, the more they had, the more they had, the more they had, the more they had, the more they had, the more they had, the more they had, there was no big problem with the real senior generals.
All the soldiers in Youzhou knew that the King of Yan liked the Legalists, and his biggest hobby was to legislate, and even mountains, rivers, trees, and animals were kept under control. The most nonsensical thing was to find that killing giant salamanders took three days of labor service, which was called equality of all things. No one knew where the fish with a strange appearance was worth protecting.
Even after they arrived, they were looking for water sources and received a reminder from the 10,000 invaders around Sima Ji that the clean water source is where the giant salamander is. The King of Yan said that this kind of fish has extremely high requirements for water quality, and there is definitely no problem with the water source where they live.
The whole Youzhou knows that once the King of Yan has enacted a law, such a thing as a matter of almost a foregone conclusion, and now he wants to use legislation to protect the status of the enlisted, which is a foregone conclusion.
So as soon as he said that, all the soldiers were more eager to fight. When they heard that the Youzhou generals and schools talked about this, the soldiers who were gathered in other prefectures and counties also understood what this meant to them.
"You are not fighting for this king, but restoring stability in the world. I am just the King of Yan, not the Emperor. The battle between me and Sima Ying has nothing to do with the Emperor." Sima Ji slowly pulled out the sword in his hand, and the weights and measures on it were clearly visible, "Everything has a boundary, and the so-called laws are a legal norm. My words are as clearly visible as the scale above. Do you trust me?"
"Faith!" A neat roar rang in the camp, although there was only one word but it showed some determination.
"Okay, the significance of this battle will determine the order for hundreds of years in the future. In the future, there will be only the emperor and the people, and no group of people can be born to exploit the people in the name of the emperor." Sima Ji touched the scale on the sword and said without any concealment, "To be honest, I have been looking forward to this day for a long time since the reign of the army. Since the end of the Han Dynasty, the matter of high-ranking clans gathering all over the country and not obeying the rules will disappear after this battle, not only for your life, but also for the lives of the people of the whole world. Do the soldiers of the entire army dare to fight?"
"Fight, fight, fight!" The whole atmosphere has been incited to the top by Sima Ji. The generals and officers of the entire army drew their swords and inserted them on the ground, showing their determination to participate in the war. The herd mentality has appeared. Now anyone who dares to say a word that shows his timidity will be scolded by all the soldiers, and may even be punished by Ming Zhengdian. […!ABC Novel Network *Free reading]
"Now is the time for me to counterattack. I want to fight back with the 400,000 troops on the other side. Are you willing to fight to the end?" Sima Ji naturally felt this fighting spirit clearly. Now he understood why a certain head of state of the Third Reich always likes to give public speeches. This kind of incitement cannot be replaced by an administrative order.
He opened his mouth and wanted to destroy 400,000 enemy troops. The more than 2,000 generals and schoolmen who were shrouded in the atmosphere not only did not feel anything wrong, but instead cheered loudly. His demeanor should be like this, which was more confident than the King of Yan who shouted slogans.
Of course, there is no reason for this kind of confidence. When they were most worried, they should have just started their troops and left Youzhou. At that time, the situation in the whole world was Sima Ying, Sima Yong fought against Sima Ji and Sima Yi, and the other side in the rear joined Sima Yu. Sima Ji was always at a disadvantage. It was at this disadvantage that they killed the entire Bingzhou army in the first battle, and then killed the powerful Yecheng army. After defeating Xuchang a few days ago, Sima Ying was the only enemy in front of them.
The journey was unstoppable, and the enemies were now destroyed. The enemies that were destroyed in each battle were calculated in 100,000. The surrendered soldiers had become their comrades. This made this army that was rapidly expanding had a feeling that I was invincible in the world, and the opponent was just like this.
After the mobilization of the whole group, Sima Ji began to recall the senior generals to discuss the matter. After all, the real deployment cannot be expressed so widely. Not many people need to know. Three brothers, one father-in-law and his younger brother, plus a just-arriving confidant, namely Murong Han, Duan Wuchen, Yuwen Xunyan, Murong Wei and Murong Yun.
The entire army is also very obvious now. Jinwei's heavy cavalry is not present, Youzhou's thunder cavalry is not present, and Jurchen cavalry is not present. This is the first time Sima Ji came out of Youzhou and did not even have a cavalry, so he can only count on these string control men on the grassland. Although it cannot be compared with his cavalry, at least the number is enough.
"Although the Tuoba family's troops were fighting in Hetao, I still have to explain that once I defeat Sima Ying and control Luoyang, I will let the emperor issue an edict to formally enthrone the leaders of your four Xianbei tribes as kings, and clarify your identities and establish vassal states to control the outer border. You can uphold the righteousness and divide the ranch." After injecting chicken blood on the entire army, Sima Ji began to extend his hand to his father-in-law and brother-in-law, full of righteousness.
What did they do? Are they still moved by the conditions for being the king? Why could Sima Ji marry the daughters and sisters of these Xianbei leaders? Is he so handsome? Or is he full of strategy and inner beauty? If he was an ordinary Jin native who went to work in the fields every day, could these leaders marry his pearls of his hand?
Many women in later generations married into Japan and South Korea, but why few of them married Laos, Myanmar and Cambodia? Sima Ji was able to successfully marry a marriage that had nothing to do with how talented he was. He was able to marry so many leaders because he was a vassal king of the Great Jin Dynasty. The gentry and the high-ranking families made Hu Ji happy because they were gentry. Sima Ji was able to be extravagant and licentious because he was the King of Yan, and they were hungry and full. Why did Hu women marry Jin people? People don’t have to adapt to marrying Hu people.
So when talking to your relatives, don’t act like a righteous act of fooling the people. This is all internal communication among the ruling class. Repeat your offer to make a guarantee again, which is the best mobilization for Duan Wuchen and others.
"We share the honor and disgrace with the King of Yan, and we are naturally willing to fight to the end." Duan Wuchen was the first to express his opinion. Although the Xianbei leaders did not hear Sima Ji meeting with the soldiers of the Central Plains, they also heard about the news of the upcoming decisive battle. They could guess it even if they couldn't understand it, so they naturally expressed their determination to start the war at this time.
"Okay, I won't say much nonsense. The soldiers and horses coming to aid are all infantry, and I really need your help." Sima Ji was not polite and gave direct instructions. It would be more than one level if he wanted to defeat the enemy without cavalry.
The map spread out and pointed out the terrain along the way from Sima Ying's army to Hulao Pass. Of course, Sima Ji only analyzed and did not suggest. He knew that he had no talent to play on the spot, but only gave a framework to solve the problem of how to fight. As for his task, he was naturally head-on attacking.
"This time I will not go back and run away, and send orders to order the battalions to prepare to detach the camps." After Sima Ji solved the problem of Xianbei soldiers and horses, he left and issued a command, preparing to perform the secret book of the King of Yan, and looked back and took it out.
He couldn't wait for a moment now. Since Zhang Da had already defeated Taigu Pass when he came, he was ready to attack his troops sideways, as long as there was a fish that escaped the net and fled to Sima Ying's side, Sima Ying would definitely know that Xuchang had been conquered, and even the partial divisions he organized were defeated, and he might retreat immediately. It would not be easy to catch him at that time.
Just as Sima Ji was stepping up preparations, Sima Ying did learn that Sima Xu had lost the war and that his side troops were defeated. After a long time, Sima Ying could not come back to the gods. If Sima Yong was defeated by Yecheng on his back was an accident, then Sima Xu, who was also defeated by Xuchang on his back, could not be explained by accidents. The accidents would not happen twice in such a short time.
In addition, forty or fifty thousand partial divisions were defeated by the enemy they encountered within half a day, and Sima Ying still didn't realize that the opponent was really powerful in combat, which would be a waste of his experience of leading troops in the local military town. But making this judgment made Sima Ying shudder. If Sima Ji's subordinates were really so capable, wouldn't it mean that he was vulnerable to Sima Ji?
So when his army left Hulao Pass, Sima Ji kept retreating, trying to lead himself into the trap? Thinking of this, Sima Ying took a cold breath, feeling that he seemed to have entered the trap, and there was an unknown danger that enveloped him. He stood up suddenly, and when he looked at the east, his eyes became more shocked and suspicious.
Sima Ying, who felt that something was wrong, was about to send an order to withdraw from Hulao Pass. He heard a general outside coming in to report, "Your Highness, our side explored horses and found out that the Xianbei cavalry appeared nearby."
"Immediately send an order to go back to Hulao Pass to defend. The Yan bandits avoid fighting. Go back to Hulao Pass first and then make good plans." Although they had a premonition that something was wrong, Sima Ying still did not lose her footing and found a reasonable reason to withdraw the troops, which could have the effect of stabilizing the morale of the army.
The large army camp was heavily guarded. Compared with the camp's defense, such a large number of soldiers and horses have been too large, which makes it difficult to cover everything. The Xianbei cavalry is elusive and cannot be defended.
"Don't worry about them, this is a strategy to disturb the enemy. The small army should be coming. The casual Xianbei soldiers and horses dare not do anything to us." Mr. Chen also learned that the Xianbei cavalry had changed their usual enemy's advance and retreated. He also learned that Sima Ying was preparing to withdraw his troops, and quickly shouted to stabilize the morale of the army. It was not long. After hearing this news, the soldiers immediately returned to peace. They also believed that it was just because the enemy avoided the war. Sima Ying was worried that food and grass were retreating, which was not a big deal.
