Chapter 635: Enemies and Traitors

"As the memorials in various places said, the gentry and high ranks have all made money and strength, and the people are looking forward to it. Waiting for the victory of the Southern Expedition, the King of Yan is relieved. Otherwise, what makes Zhang Bin sigh is that this time, both the gentry and the gentry in the north and the south are united in one's heart and virtue, which is really surprising." Zhang Bin held a stack of memorials and couldn't help but sigh that the reputation of the King of Yan is known to the world, and even the King of Yan himself knew this. This kind of thing that the people supported actually happened.

"The gentry is just sharing risks. For them, family inheritance is the most important. Who makes everyone guess how much money I have accumulated from the last Nanzheng to defeat all enemies with the bitter and cold land of Youzhou? Unfortunately, they don't know that the news that Nanzheng has the confidence to defeat all enemies was also released by me." Sima Ji smiled coldly, "The effect is very good, and they are all ready to make a fortune."

As for sending children from various families to join the Nanzheng, this matter is better understood. Now the Legalists in the Jin Dynasty are in power. Everyone knows that almost everyone except the royal family looks like a commoner, and they may still be able to live in peace with the noble families of the gentry. However, the noble families of the gentry are not qualified to turn against each other, so they choose to share the risks and not put the eggs in a basket.

Who made the Jin Dynasty a feudal system? Although Sima Ji famously said that the Central Plains were not in feudal system, he did not make any big moves in feudal system. In fact, he did not have the confidence to swallow Southeast Asia under the premise of centralization. You should know that the centralization is too high, and once the central government can't see the profits for a long time, it may no longer be invested.

Isn’t my voyage to the West in the Ming Dynasty so useless? Although Sima Ji believes that the meaning of voyage to the West is not as great as imagined. Because during the decades of voyage to the West, he took the old route. That route has been in the hands of Arabs before, and earlier in the hands of the Julu Empire in India, he said that there is no problem with the great voyage. He cannot afford the significance of opening up a new route, and opening up a new route is the true meaning of the great voyage in the West.

However, if you continue to continue, you may have a thought, and you may have a breakthrough in the future. But if you stop, you will even lose your thoughts. This cannot be pushed to the Qing Dynasty like other problems. After all, at that time, the Jurchens were nearly two hundred years away from becoming a climate.

Logically speaking, Sima Ji should be happy with the cooperation of the gentry high sects, but he actually had no intention of being happy. In his opinion, this is a copy of Wang Yan's three holes. And this time it was not the Wang family of Langya that did this, but the gentry high sects in the empire that were all doing this.

The world was already unstable in the later period of the Eight Kings Rebellion, so he carefully created a retreat for himself. Qingzhou and Jingzhou were both important military places at that time, and the resources were also abundant. Therefore, Wang Yan asked his younger brother Wang Cheng to be the governor of Jingzhou and his clan Wang Dun to be the governor of Qingzhou. He also said to Wang Cheng, Wang Dun: "Jingzhou has the Yangtze River, the Han River is the strong, and Qingzhou has the danger of being backed by the sea. You two guard the outside world, and I stay in the capital, so you can be called three caves." At that time, those with insight despises him very much.

Wang Cheng and Wang Dun are now submitting memorials to join the Southern Expedition Army to open up territory for our Great Jin Dynasty.

The centralization is becoming more and more fierce. The gentry's high sects have no power to resist, so they began to save the country in a curve. After all, in theory, the Great Jin was a feudal country, and from the map circulated by Sima Ji, it is very suitable to avoid them from the threat of the King of Yan. Leaving a way out is not a bad thing.

"After a hundred years, will you support the local vassal kings to split the territory and leave the Great Jin Dynasty?" After Zhang Bin left, Sima Ji took Wang Cheng and Wang Dun's memorial to go to war, "I will not stop you from going to sea, but it's better to have a different intention to confront you. After the annexation of the Indochina Peninsula, the local power is not comparable to a small island in the UK."

The British Empire's local island with a population of only 20 million is not comparable to the current Great Jin Dynasty. You should know that the current Great Jin Dynasty is already more than the native population of Britain in the 19th century. The local potential is not the same level. Sima Ji also thinks that the British diplomacy is great, and the layout is very awesome when it declines, and the others are just average.

If overseas fining countries mean to leave the mainland of Jin, they will never be as casual as the American War of Independence. Apart from an ocean, European 6 have other powerful countries to restrain Britain, and China is the dominant one in East Asia, and the distance between the South China Sea cannot be compared with the Atlantic Ocean. Moreover, the Indochina Peninsula is not far from those archipelagos. If there are vassal kings in the future, they will definitely be seeking death, and the Jin people on the island will be slaughtered.

Sima Ji has already made an attitude of how to deal with islands that may be separatist in the overseas world. He deliberately asked the Jin army to go to Yizhou Island and personally ordered the killing of Yizhou Island. He hoped that this matter would make the vassal kings who went out to sea sober up.

After much consideration, Sima Jirang's minister of the Central Secretariat in the mansion selected all the memorials of the gentry who wanted to go out to sea and open up territory for our Great Jin Dynasty, and all allowed them. At least at this stage, the national gentry could be less powerful. After years of hard work, holes had appeared on the invisible ceiling above the empire.

Compared with the troops and horses in various southern expeditions, the situation in the capital is as usual. The truth about tight food in the front and tight food in the back has not changed. Of course, people who worry about the country and the people also exist, but most people think that news of victory will come soon. After all, the King of Yan said that the south of Ningzhou is full of native people, and I am not able to capture it because of our great Jin Tianshu.

In fact, Sima Ji felt that Zhenla should be the best opponent among the targets of attack and killing. After all, Zhenla was just a vassal state of Funan, and Funan was not an opponent. How big a storm can a vassal state cause? Zhenla is Ningzhou to the north, Jiaozhou to the east, and Zhanzhou and Funan to the south. It is surrounded by three sides. As long as we take action together, Zhenla is a small tribal state that will definitely not be able to resist.

The horn sounded, and dozens of generals were carrying helmets and strode in. For a moment, the armor and generals were clanging. It seemed that the morale of the soldiers and horses from all over the country was high and unstoppable, but in fact, they had a captain, accumulating crossbow, guerrillas, barbarian kings, and Yishou. Their origins were also a hodgepodge. Strictly speaking, it was very difficult to dispatch such an army in a mess.

However, our country has its own national conditions. Not only is it Ningzhou, but also has many Yishang and the Barbarian Kings in Jiaozhou.

"The emperor's imperial decree to attack Zhenla." Tao Huang has been the governor of Jiaozhou for more than 20 years. After the alternation of Wu and Jin, the prestige in Jiaozhou was unparalleled. Only he could summon so many troops from all walks of life. After seeing everyone coming, he said, "This time the capital attack sent out a large army of one million, which is far better than the last time the King of Yan's 500,000 troops. Several vassal kings were in charge, and our Jiaozhou troops were just one of them."

Of course, a million troops exist. After all, wasn’t the last time the King of Yan claimed to be a 500,000 army to fight south? Then it was reasonable that the million troops claimed to be a million troops. These Yishangs in Jiaozhou and the Barbarian Kings were just taking this trick.

"We will fight hard to defeat Zhenla!" After a short period of time, the generals and officers of Jiaozhou, who received the blessing of a million troops, showed their strong fighting spirit.

However, Tao Huang's side is not the most suitable side, because Jiaozhou has to cross the Changshan Mountains in the west attack, and the distance between Jiaozhou and Zhenla is only relatively close on the map. There is a place that is more suitable than Jiaozhou, that is, the south of Zhanzhou and Funan. As a traitor in the eyes of Zhenla people, the Funan people looked down on the vassal state of Zhenla. The purpose of this southern expedition came and practiced it in practice. What does traitors mean more fierce than enemies, and heretics are more hateful than pagans. The enthusiasm for attacking Zhenla is even higher than the troops in Zhanzhou.

With these Funan people who are the same tribe as the Zhenla people, joining the Zhanzhou soldiers has achieved twice the result with half the effort. It turned out that the Zhanzhou soldiers and horses even had detailed maps of Zhenla domestically. These were made of scouts who disguised as merchants for many years and surveyed and mapped by local people in Funan. Their details were even more detailed than the maps that Zhenla Kingdom itself regarded as treasures, which could provide delicate support for this Zhanzhou soldiers and horses. What's more, the Funan people also joined the marching troops and led the way by example.

Zhanzhou soldiers and horses were naturally unlucky, because it was the autumn of the Central Plains. Although the Qinghou here was not affected, as the lake water retreated in summer, the grass beaches formed by the rivers and lakes retreated were covered with various poisonous snakes and insects. The problem is that these swamps cannot be seen on the surface. If there are Funan people who are familiar with the terrain, it can reduce a lot of effort.

The soldiers and horses of Zhanzhou quietly came out, and along the way, under the guidance of the Funan people, arrived at a city south of Zhenla. This city was extremely important and could be regarded as the southern gate of Zhenla Kingdom. Facing the sudden siege of tens of thousands of Jin troops, the generals guarding the city were very surprised at first, but after experiencing the initial panic, they soon strengthened their beliefs and decided to resist.

Because the city walls of various countries in the South China Sea have always been very short, it was dawn and it was not dawn yet, and the soldiers on duty on the top of the city were still conscientious and staring at the enemy just now. The curling blue smoke mixed with the morning mist looked fresh. At this moment, the battle between the two sides began.
