"Zhang Da, tell me about Xuchang." Sima Ji wanted to take a break now and pointed at his confidant beloved general to explain the process of the battle in Yuzhou.
"The army entered Yuzhou, and the gentry sects from all over the country gathered in the city to lead the crowd to resist. In addition to the King of Fanyang leading 80,000 troops in Xuchang, our troops encountered 120,000 rebels. The troops mobilized by the gentry sects of Yuzhou were still above the troops under the jurisdiction of King Fanyang." Zhang Da stood up and talked happily in front of the royal family kings, and told the story of entering Yuzhou from beginning to end.
The process is not tortuous, the war is not tug-of-war, and the story cannot be called ups and downs, but one thing is very important. The soldiers gathered by these noble gentry and noble ranks are still above Sima Lu, who left Xuchang.
Of course, this is also related to Sima Ji's excessive in Yecheng. Forced these gentry high sects to fight for their own survival, which was also considered to be the greatest potential, although it was useless in the end.
The kings present were either pondering or surprised, and Sima Jicai slowly spoke, "How is it? Are you shocked? The important city of Xuchang, one of the five capitals, has only 80,000 soldiers in charge, while the nobles of Yuzhou gathered more than 120,000 troops. People who don't know would think this is not the Great Jin world? This is the world of our Sima family. You sit here one by one, aren't you afraid that one day you will be replaced? Your aides are all in it, and you will be with you for a long time, and you may not be able to copy the old story of Gaopingling."
This sentence is like a knife stabbed into the hearts of all the vassal kings. The incident in Gaopingling was the pinnacle of the Sima family. The enemy was numerous and we were few and we won the beauty. In addition, Sima's master trained 3,000 dead soldiers and was summoned and left. He had not been seen by anyone in Luoyang for many years. It is worthy of a special book.
But if this matter was born to me, now is different from the past. The Sima family has already won the world. These vassal kings, who are like vassals, are all beneficiaries of the Great Jin Dynasty. A group of powerful gentry surrounded by a group of powerful gentry. Wouldn't you feel guilty? If you can do it, can't other families follow me?
If you are really not afraid, why should you let the vassal kings go out to lead troops? Set up a vassal state, especially in a densely populated state like Jizhou and Yanzhou. You want to be banned and divide the land completely. Now it has become a rebellion of the Eight Kings?
"At the end of the Han Dynasty, there were already many powerful people everywhere. The Later Han relied on powerful people to establish the country. Then there were many four generations and three dukes who devoured the land to hide the people and accumulated strength with the county." Sima Ji talked about the history of the entire gentry on his own, "The current situation is even more powerful than the Later Han Dynasty. The royal family is still there, and the major military towns are all in the hands of the royal family. They can even gather 100,000 troops. It is not a problem to destroy my family one day?"
"Uncle Wang, are you going to attack the gentry?" Sima Fan thought for a long time before speaking, "My nephew thinks it can be postponed, but it's still too anxious now, after all, Jiangnan has not decided."
"If you think of this, you have the style of your father at the beginning." Sima Ji praised with satisfaction, "King of Chu, King Changsha, are all outstanding people, but unfortunately they all died in this whirlpool. Now we have returned to the problem at the beginning. There are too many royal families involved in this war. If we don't show an attitude, we will definitely break our trust in the world. But this degree is also easy to grasp. If all the kings involved are bastards, how do the people think of the royal family?"
"Please solve our doubts. Since the King of Yan has already thought of this, there must be a solution. As long as the King of Yan gives an order, we will discuss it and see if it is feasible." King of Liang Sima Xi asked, but his eyes were wandering around, as if he was looking for a voice of agreement. Of course, the crowd was also very proud and nodded.
"Then I will talk about my opinion, please listen quietly." Sima Ji cleared his throat and said, "Now all the military towns in various places are under my name, so I will naturally not commit murder. Even if Sima Ying and Sima Xun are two defeated generals, I am not going to kill them, but someone must bear this responsibility."
"Yan King Qingxuan is kind..." Dozens of vassal kings spoke one after another, and they were afraid that the war would be involved. The vassal kings leading the troops to fight were all their families. In other words, they were all relatives. Although the vassal kings present today did not participate in the war directly, all kinds of flattery are definitely indispensable. Everyone has shit on their butts, and no one is clean.
Sima Ji's meaning is that at this point, the living will no longer be held accountable, but Sima Ying and Sima Xu should not expect to come out to make trouble in the future, but only divide the responsibilities on the dead. However, it is obvious that the brothers of Sima Yue, the King of Donghai, are excluded, and someone will take the blame.
"The usurpation of the throne by King Zhao is a foregone conclusion. Hejian King Sima Yong, who holds heavy troops and plans to the capital, has a plan to distract himself from the King of Qi and the King of Changsha, which has led to a gap between the King of Changsha and the King of Qi. King of Qi died, and later provoked Sima Ying to send troops to attack the capital. Sima Yong was guilty of many sins. After Sima Ying attacked the capital, King of Donghai was afraid of being implicated and killed the King of Changsha, causing a disaster in the capital. He could not be let go."
Sima Ji recalled the causes and consequences of the Eight Kings Rebellion and asked, "I have finished saying this. Who agrees and who opposes?"
"The King of Yan said!" Why should we oppose it? What's the point of opposing it? Two of the three vassal kings involved are dead, and the remaining one Sima Yue and they heard about it just now. Can't we do it if we don't care about it?
"Since that's the case, the descendants of King Qi and King Changsha were immediately released and returned to the royal family." Sima Ji decided to see that no one objected. The sons of King Qi were detained by King Changsha, while the descendants of King Changsha were detained by Sima Ying. At present, they are not dead. All the descendants were eradicated in history, starting from the fall of King Sima Yue of Donghai.
But now, Sima Ji felt that Donghai King obviously did not have too strong body and could not carry too bad souls. This notorious thing was more suitable for him. By the way, all the descendants of Gaomi, Sima Yue's generation, were destroyed, and the Eight Kings Rebellion was just over.
"The kings will be sentenced to death with me tomorrow. This is the royal family's statement on this matter, and it should be no problem." Sima Ji asked while picking up food. Since it is not a problem, it will be decided. Sima Ji clapped his hands and played music. The dancers walked out to sing and dance, living a life of drunkenness and dreaming of luxury. Isn't this a peaceful and prosperous era?
No matter how difficult the people are now, hunger and cold, the ruling class will always find its own fun. From now on, the ruling class of the Great Jin Empire will begin a new round of weight loss.
Since the kings entered Beijing to take power one after another, there has never been any tyrant mansion like Sima Ji's tyrant mansion, with such a strong military color, and there is no gentry high-ranking clan. His tyrant mansion is a pure military regime. If it were later generations, it would be a standard military government.
The government was born by oneself, and Jun, imitated the setting of his predecessor. In fact, Sima Ji did not know the structure of the Ba Mansion. It doesn't matter. Some of the royal kings knew how this thing worked. They all spoke out to help the King of Yan, who started the battle. They set up General Guards, General Cavalry, and the chief Sima was appointed as the chief of the Central Army. Four people were the chief of the lieutenant, nineteen people, twenty-two people joined the army, eleven people participated in the war, and thirty-three people were the chief.
All of these thirty-three members are generals from Youzhou. Sima Ji can be said to have put food alone to the limit in this regard and did not leave a place for the gentry. The members of the Ba Mansion are either his guards or his students, and even if they are not generals from Youzhou, they are naturally members of the royal family.
"The staff of the Bafu needs to be expanded, but the current generals of the surrendered army will have to observe for a while." After Sima Ji drafted his list of staff of the Bafu, he spoke to a few confidants. To be honest, he really wanted to bring Murong's lord Duan Wuchen and others into the Bafu, but they didn't care much about this matter, so the King of Yan could only sigh inwardly and said that he was useless.
Can a mere title of kings confuse your mind? Without looking at the King of Yan, even the position of emperor cannot shake the King of Yan's heart to support the country. He has never had the etiquette he should have.
"Don't do this, the power of the court is in your hands now." Yang Xianrong struggled with a red face and whispered, "Now someone in the palace said you want to usurp the throne, what do you think?"
"Who said?" Sima Ji raised his eyebrows, took out his hand from the woman's ravines with an unsatisfactory expression, and asked with an unpleasant look, "It seems that the people in the capital are still not honest and need to argue, but it doesn't matter. I have sent someone back to Jicheng to invite professionals to come. The road is smooth now and it doesn't take long to arrive."
Then he changed his subject and said, "If I want to usurp the throne, you will not be the queen. Although I don't care about the gentry talking nonsense, I cannot let the former emperor's queen be a wife and concubine. You must consider it clearly and not test it randomly."
There are not many things Sima Ji dared not do in this world, but he did not become unrestrained in learning from the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. He either attacked his stepmother or attacked his daughter-in-law. Although in a sense, the two sides were similar. A large number of members of the Guanlong Group were Xianbei people, and he also married many Xianbei wives and concubines, but it was still different.
"What should I do?" Yang Xianrong was a little embarrassed that she still felt vanity in her heart. Why not be the queen?
"It's easy to deal with. I'll tell the Central Palace how to finish this time." Sima Ji waved his hand calmly and said, "I'm back home, let's rest."
Sima Ji, who returned to the mansion, issued a news that Tuoba's family would lead to the capital. The second thing was what he wanted to do. He immediately recruited the people from the people to enter the palace. He wanted to replace all the more than 10,000 palace maids in the entire palace. This was just the first step, and the scope of subsequent replacement would be expanded.
