Chapter 374 Attack on the Eastern Jin Dynasty 3/3
Sima Yu sent a large army to recruit new recruits.
Sima Yu does have the means.
He used the method of joining the army and reducing taxes to attract 50,000 new recruits in a short time.
He also drew 20,000 people from the Sima clan and the garrison troops in various places, plus 30,000 imperial guards, a total of 100,000 troops.
At the same time, Sima Yu summoned his confidant.
In addition to Wang Tanzhi, there are Yin Hao, Cai Mo, Lin Lu, Wang Biaozhi, Xun Rui, Xi Yin, Huan Huo and others...
It is worth mentioning that Xi Yin also has a special identity.
He is Xi Chao's biological father.
A father and son.
The son is Sima Yu's confidant, but the father is Huan Wen's planner.
Xi Yin believed in Taoism, while Xi Chao believed in Buddhism.
Xi Yin liked to accumulate and accumulated tens of millions of dollars. He once opened a kuo and sent it to Xi Chao to obtain it.
Xi Chao was born with a good nature and dispersed all the money to his relatives within one day.
The father and son have completely opposite personalities and are in opposition.
And Xi Yin also has a special identity.
He is Wang Xizhi's brother-in-law.
Therefore, Huan Wen's planner Xi Chao was Wang Xizhi's nephew.
The gentry are linked together and intertwined.
The top gentry of the Eastern Jin Dynasty intermarried with each other.
This is also one of the important reasons why Huan Wen was unable to overthrow the Sima family and become emperor himself.
Because of different factions, the father and son cut off contact on weekdays and faced each other coldly.
In history, Xi Chao died of illness not long after Huan Wen's death. He knew that even though his father hated him very much on the outside, he still thought of the father-son relationship in his heart, so after his death, his confidants gave some letters to his father Xi Yin.
Xi Yin cried bitterly after learning about Xi Chao's death.
Xi Chao's confidant handed the letter to Xi Yin. After Xi Yin opened it, he found that the contents were all kinds of conspiracy between Xi Chao and Huan Wen. After reading it, Xi Yin scolded the boy for his death and stopped crying.
Through his confidants, Sima Yu won over General Anxi, Yu Yi, who was the Sima family in recent years, and won over two generals under Yu Ji.
Mao Muzhi, Mao Anzhi!
These two people may not be able to be the commander of the first army, but there is no problem in being the generals in the army.
Xie An and Xie Xuan were biased towards Confucian generals, which was more conducive to conquering the Southern Qi Dynasty.
Faced with Sima Yu's gathering of a 100,000 army in a short time, even though he was mentally prepared, Huan Wen also felt a little afraid.
He once went to the palace to meet Sima Yu.
Sima Yu kept crying whenever he saw him. For some reason, he felt panicked when he saw Sima Yu crying.
The murderous intent has also weakened a lot.
In his opinion, Sima Yu was just a waste who could only talk.
But from this action, what Sima Yu hid was not as simple as it showed.
......
Huan Wen personally led an army of 200,000 from the northern route to conquer the Southern Qi.
Xie An and Xie Xuan led an army of 100,000 from the southern route to conquer the Southern Qi.
War broke out again in the south, which had been silent for several years in the north and south.
The three generals of the Southern Qi Dynasty, Yuan Chongzu, Chen Xianda and Pei Shuye, led their troops to fight.
[Chen Xianda]【Wu: 98(98)/Type: 105(105)/Type: 60(60)/Type: 57(57)】【Title①Appointment: Chen Xianda increases his command 2 points when he obeys the order. Talent②One-eyed: Reduce the enemy's force value when fighting.】
[Pei Shuye] [Wu: 103(103)/Type: 102(101)/Type: 70(70)/Type: 59(59)] [Talent ① Drive: Pei Shuye led the cavalry to travel more than 100 miles to carry out an attack and increased Pei Shuye's command and 2 points of force.]
Chen Xianda, Pei Shuye led his troops to resist the northern road, and Huan Wen failed to make any progress several times, but instead suffered heavy losses due to his strong attack.
But the South Road was unstoppable.
Yuan Chongzu showed his talents since childhood, and the elders of the clan often praised Yuan Chongzu to the outside world.
Now he serves as the General of the Sanqi Cavalry in Southern Qi, and is promoted to the Minister of the Five Soldiers, and leads the General of the Caval Cavalry.
He fought south and north, and was famous for his reputation. He had repelled the attacks of the Northern Wei army several times. Xiao Daocheng praised him for his style of Bai Qi and Han Xin. Of course, this is just Xiao Daocheng's own words...
[Yuan Chongzu] [Wu: 95(95)/Type: 102(102)/Type: 67(67)/Type: 42(42)] [Talent ① Water flooding: When performing water attack, increase Yuan Chongzu's commander's command and reduce the enemy's command 1 point.]
Yuan Chongzu has good abilities and can be regarded as a general who can guard one side in any dynasty.
But unfortunately, he was facing Xie An, Xie Xuan, the top uncle and nephew combination in the Northern and Southern Dynasties.
Yuan Chongzu was defeated and captured, and the army on the south road collapsed.
Huan Wen was so angry that the corners of his mouth were blistered.
I don't know who to scold.
In the end, he could only angrily scold Chen Duyan for not being a son of humanity in the tent.
Chen’s one-eyed dragon is Chen Xianda, who is famous for being the one-eyed dragon general.
In the early years, King Liu Xiufan of Guiyang rebelled, and Chen Xianda was ordered to suppress it. Flying arrows penetrated Chen Xianda's left eye, and from then on, they turned into a one-eyed dragon.
The situation after Yuan Chongzu's defeat was unfavorable to Southern Qi.
After discussing, Chen Xianda and Pei Shuye were preparing to lead the troops back to help with Xie An.
Huan Wen learned the news and now there are two ways in front of him.
One is the army that delayed Chen Xianda's return to the aid.
In this way, Xie An can enter the hinterland without any obstacles.
But Xie An must have done great achievements.
The second is to allow the enemy to return to the rescue, which delayed Xie An's pace.
The two are on the same starting line.
"Grand Sima, we should allow the enemy to return to the rescue, and then send elite troops to the north to detour and attack the Southern Qi royal city!" Xi Chao and Huan Wen said.
Huan Wen closed his eyes.
The look is a bit complicated.
Xi Chao felt a sudden slap in his heart when he saw this scene.
The secret thought is not good.
He knows the character of Grand Sima the best.
Bold but cautious.
Greedy and suspicious.
He has a deep political skill but is restrained.
This Eastern Jin Dynasty was ultimately the Eastern Jin Dynasty of the gentry.
A large part of the important forces under the Grand Sima also came from the gentry of all sizes.
They pushed the Grand Sima to their current position, but became the last obstacle for the Grand Sima to take the throne.

At the same time, Huan Wen also has another problem, that is, he likes talents.
Grand Sima has repeatedly expressed his appreciation for Xie An public or privately.
Xi Chao opened his mouth and wanted to speak.
Huan Wen raised his hand and waved his hand, "Let them go back." Huan Wen opened his eyes. "Although I admire Xie An, it's a pity that he can't use it for me, so there's no need to worry too much."
Xi Chao breathed a sigh of relief, and Sima made the right choice.
"Attacking the Southern Qi royal city, a brave general must be selected to take on this important task. Some guests can be elected and recommended," said Huan Wen.
"There are many talents under the command of the Grand Sima, so there are naturally." Xi Chao was extremely confident.
He already has a draft.
"Who?"
"Liu Laozhi, the son of Liu Jian, the general of the conquering general!"
Huan Wen immediately summoned Liu Laozhi.
Not long.
The burly and majestic general, eight feet tall, with a tiger-stepped in a dragon-shaped shape, and a purple-red face. He strode into the camp.
"Liu Laozhi meets with Grand Sima!"
Huan Wen said gently: "Look up and let me see."
Liu Laozhi raised his head, and Huan Wen discovered that Liu Laozhi's eyes were yellow, like tiger's eyes, and his purple and red cheeks showed a strange phenomenon, which was very good.
