Chapter 412
"Ran Min led the people in Guanzhong to surrender, and Li Nong surrendered unconditionally in Jibei County. Except for the small group within Shi Jie, more than [-]% of the beggar army has been integrated into the Han system."

Huan Wen was about to leave, leaving the place where he was born and raised, but it made him sad enough.

Before leaving, Huan Wen sent a greeting card to Yu Yi for the last time. He thought that Yu Yi would refuse to see him again like before, but he did not expect that this time Yu Yi actually met him.

The Yu clan suffered continuous blows in just three months, and a large number of families attached to the Yu clan switched to the Xie clan or the Chu clan, which completely shaken the status of the number one clan in the south of the Yangtze River. It is too early to say that the family has completely disappeared.

The reason why an aristocratic family is an aristocratic family is not only that the family inheritance is sufficient and the network is extremely wide, but also the land it occupies is beyond imagination.As early as when Yu Liang was in charge of the family, the property owned by the Yu family had increased rapidly, only slightly less than that of the Wang family.After the decline of the Wang family, Yu Liang, together with the Xie family, Huan family and other large and small families, digested [-]% of the Wang family's property, making the Yu family the number one family south of the Yangtze River, and also made the Wang family who was once able to "share the world with horses" The family was in a state of despair.

Field property is not only the land, but also the people who depend on those lands, the so-called farmers.Possessing a population represents the strength of the family, and you can select the young and strong you want from a large population to train as a private army.

Under the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, whoever had the most private troops would have the highest right to speak. Yu Bing was dead, but after Yu Yi came to the top, he did not lose the land owned by the Yu clan. In a short period of time, the Xie clan and Chu clan The clan was only attacking the official level, squeezing the sources of wealth of the Yu clan, and did not dare to do anything to the property of the Yu clan.

Once the Yu family's property is threatened, it means that the group of people led by the Xie family and the Chu family will kill them. With the Wang family's lessons learned, Yu Yi will never sit back and wait for death.

Huan Wen always wanted to see Yu Yi because he had the idea that he might be able to take advantage of the Yu family. After all, no matter what kind of blow the Yu family suffered, it was only superficial, and the real strength was still there.

Yu Yi looked much slimmer and thinner than before. From the very beginning, he listened to Huan Wen's eloquent talk, and he didn't mean to interrupt or respond at all.

"The population of the Great Han is close to 500 million. They own all of Qingzhou and Xuzhou, as well as some parts of Jizhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and Liaodong." Huan Wen's speech was not fast, and there was nothing particularly passionate: "The national strength is strong, and the army can fight."

Yu Yi had the experience of personally visiting the territory of Han Dynasty, and his stay could be said to be very long, which led to some aristocratic families using this to make false accusations.He believed that he knew the new Han Dynasty better than most families south of the Yangtze River, and there was no need for Huan Wen to emphasize it.

"A new round of conscription edict has been issued, and the army of the big man will exceed 50." Huan Wen was a little excited when he said this. He stared at Yu Bing and said: "If necessary, it can reach 70." , and the production will not be affected too seriously.”

Yu Yi smiled, held up the cup of greasy tea and took a sip.

"Yu Gong, it is the general trend that the king will dominate the world, just like King Qin will sweep across Liuhe!" Huan Wen actually treated Yu Yi with respect in his heart. He had received many favors from Yu Yi before.He looked at Yu Yi with bright eyes and advised: "Nowadays, I don't know how many families have split up, and one of them has gone to the Han Dynasty. The same is true for the Xie family, the same is true for the Huan family, and even the same is true for the Wang family. I'm afraid only There is no Yu Gong clan left."

The population of the Yu family has always been small. With the death of Yu Liang and Yu Yu Bing, the pillars of the family, only Yu Yi is left. There is no one who is too outstanding among the descendants. According to Yu Bing's evaluation during his lifetime, he can be regarded as a great leader. None of the people who are guardian dogs.

"Maybe my Yu family is destined to suffer such a disaster." Yu Yi finally said, "The King of Han is ambitious, and he is also a king who can create hegemony. Yi has no doubt that the Central Plains will be owned by the King of Han sooner or later, he just said that he will go south...hehe .”

"Wen grew up in the south, so he knows the situation in the south." Huan Wen sneered for a while before saying, "Has Mr. Yu ever heard the remarks of the Central Committee of the Han Dynasty?"

"Oh?" Yu Yi pretended to be listening: "Yuanzi is willing to talk, and the old man is willing to listen."

However, Huan Wen fell silent, and turned his head to look outside the pavilions. After the beginning of spring, there were birds singing and flowers fragrant there, and some water pavilions unique to the south also made the sound of running water.

"Although the south is ruled by the Sima clan in name, it is actually ruled by the aristocratic family." Huan Wen looked at Yu Yi and asked, "Does Yu Gong agree with this point of view?"

"Although it's outrageous, it's true." Yu Yi nodded and asked, "And then?"

"There is a saying in the Central Committee of the Han Dynasty that the reason why the world has become ruined and the people of the Central Plains will be under the brutal rule of the Hulu is because of the aristocratic family." Huan Wen was smiling, perhaps self-deprecating: "Wen is the beneficiary of this situation. Although they are not qualified, they agree with similar remarks and are really worried about whether the Han army will cleanse the family in the future."

It was the first time Yu Yi heard similar remarks. He was stunned at first, and then asked in disbelief: "Purge the southern aristocratic family?"

"Yes." Huan Wen said seriously: "It's like cleaning up the garbage, cleaning up the aristocratic families that are considered to be moths."

"The king of Han agrees?" Yu Yi couldn't be calm anymore, he asked with great suspicion: "Don't the king of Han know that the aristocratic families can't be cleaned up completely, and the establishment of a new dynasty is just to cultivate a new batch of aristocratic families?"

"Your Majesty didn't make a statement. However, seeing the look in His Majesty's eyes at that time, Wen seemed to agree very much." Huan Wen smiled wryly for a while, and said: "The new dynasty will naturally have a group of new beneficiaries, but for the Majesty, those It's one of our own, not someone with a sense of disgust."

"Impossible. Being a king is just pulling a group to fight a group, and will not make a move to clean up a class, and it should not be attacked in an all-round way." Yu Yi has been a little bit relieved, and looked at it steadily After Huan Wen for a long time, he suddenly showed a disgusted expression, and said: "There is not only one person who said that Yuanzi should not be close friends, is that really the case?"

Yu Yi's words were very serious. He didn't know that history had not changed and that he had been betrayed and betrayed by Huan Wen. Otherwise, he would have thought that he was so prescient.

Huan Wen first showed a look of astonishment, then stood up and roared: "Mr. Yu, Wen wants to give your family a new way out for the sake of his care. I never thought that Gong would say such a thing. The one who wants to destroy the Yu clan now is not me, Huan Wen, nor anyone from the Han Dynasty, but those from the Xie clan and the Chu clan! Wen wants Mr. Yu to help, but he is also trying to preserve one of the Yu clan's lines!"

Yu Yi calmly looked at the angry Huan Wen, and asked, "Finally we've come to the point, what's the matter?"

Huan Wen seemed to have lost his temper because of Yu Yi's attitude. He felt embarrassed and had to speak. He froze in place for a while, sorted out his words, and said: "Strike the Huan family and drag the Huan family out of the court system."

The scene immediately fell silent. The Huan family Huan Wen was talking about was naturally the one who was related by blood.

Only some members of the Yu clan still have official positions, but most of those official positions are of little weight.The group formed by the Xie family, the Chu family and other aristocratic families seems to want to completely destroy the Yu family, so it is not difficult for the Yu family to drag some people to be buried with them. The Huan family showed neutrality.

"Why?" Yu Yi's face was extremely ugly. He would not think that Huan Wen wanted to take revenge on his brothers. It is normal for a family to break up and allocate investment in a country, and there is no grievance.His face was almost livid: "Yuanzi, you have to make it clear!"

"What Wen said is true." Huan Wen said very cautiously: "If the current trend continues, when the Han army crosses the river and goes south, it will be the moment of bloodbath in the south."

Without official positions, most officials have begun to distance themselves from the Yu family, but it doesn't mean that Yu Yi doesn't know what happened to the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty recently.

It was just that Shi Hu said that he could become a minister again, and some people in the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty were overjoyed, as if the hopeless court's recovery of the Central Plains was just around the corner.

It was because Shi Hu didn't ask for much in return, it just required the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty to make a big move to the north, without actually sending troops north, which caused some people to think that there was no need to pay a big price at all. Being able to use this plan to intimidate the Han Kingdom, the result was that after a while of deliberation, he really made a gesture of going north in a big way.

"Didn't Yu Gong know that the Han army will go south sooner or later, and will go south one day, and wants to take this opportunity to quit the officialdom to protect the Yu clan?" Huan Wen looked directly at Yu Yi, watching Yu Yi's body suddenly Shocked, thinking it was right, he pressed forward step by step: "You can't stop those idiots from doing stupid things, but this way of self-protection is... just as stupid?"

Yu Yi was really shaken just now, as if he had been pierced through the window paper, he said bitterly: "The old man's first name, the reputation established by generations of the Yu family, is useless to the younger generations, should I let the old man personally help the king of Han lead the horse?" Whip?"

However, Huan Wen felt something was wrong and looked at Yu Yi blankly. He suddenly stood up for the second time, saluted, and silently stepped back to the side of the pavilion. He almost gritted his teeth and said, "You will regret it. You will definitely regret it." You will regret it!”

Yu Yi also stood up, looking at Huan Wen who turned to leave without any expression on his face.He knew something big was going to happen, and it must be a very big thing. He originally wanted to get the truth out of Huan Wen's mouth, but he didn't expect Huan Wen to notice it.

Huan Wen returned to his residence and immediately gave orders, saying that he would set off immediately and go directly to Jiangdu.He was a little worried and called his confidants: "Send a message to Jiangdu. If permission is granted, the fleet will be dispatched in large numbers. While the Jin navy from training has not returned, launch a surprise attack!"

The confidants were full of surprise: "You are the commander of the Southern Expedition, but...haven't received the Tiger Talisman, Jiang Duling will obey?"

"He will obey orders, and he must obey orders!" Huan Wen had a sense of urgency. He never imagined that he had not achieved anything by looking for Yu Yi, but it made Yu Yi aware that there was a big movement in the Han army: "With Yu Yi as a person, even if The Yu clan is now being besieged by those bullies, so he will also focus on the overall situation. Once the Jin Navy in Jingkou becomes vigilant, the King will have to attack the water stronghold to annihilate the Jin Navy."

As for how to go back, whether he can go back safely, Huan Wen didn't worry too much, just like he thought the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was a concentration camp for idiots. There is absolutely no way to imprison or kill a country's envoys.Furthermore, his surname is Huan in the final analysis, and the liquidation of the Langya Wang family by various families in the past was only to eliminate their family strength, but the blood relationship can be preserved.

[The purpose of saying those words was to make Yu Yi feel fearful. He shouldn’t have spread it to everyone, right? 】Huan Wen felt that he seemed to have done something wrong, that is, the Han army would purge the southern families sooner or later.He almost gritted his teeth: [No matter whether the news about Yu Yi spreads or not, I will definitely deny it! 】

Huan Wen came out of Jiankang City without saying goodbye in relative fear. He was not worried about anything, as if he was sure that he would not be imprisoned or killed. He was worried about how fast Yu Yi would move, which made Xie Shang and others Take precautions.

A group of people rushed forward, rushing straight to the checkpoints, but halfway through, they saw thick smoke rising from the north side one after another.

[Fu Wei's movements are really fast! 】Huan Wen knew where the thick smoke was rising from, it was the area of ​​the river where the Jin Army navy drilled: 【Isn't this kid afraid that I won't be able to go back? 】

The Han fleet has been dispatched in large numbers, but it was not Fu Wei who made the decision alone. It was Yuan Qiao and Wang Pu who made the decision together.

To put it bluntly, the timing at that time was too suitable. A fleet of the Eastern Jin Navy sailed upstream as usual, and there was also a Han fleet watching from the side as usual.After Fu Wei received Huan Wen's order, it happened that there was a Han fleet returning from Yuzhou upstream. At that time, Yuan Qiao felt that since the war was about to start, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and he also believed that Huan Wen had a way to escape the danger. First send people to Jingkou to send the letter of war, and the next moment directly let the two Han fleets launch an attack.

The Jin army navy who was suddenly attacked was not stupid enough not to notice something was wrong. Wang Kan, who commanded the fleet, had already ordered a defensive posture after realizing that the Han army ships were deliberately approaching, but they did not have time to change their positions and seize the upper reaches. It is even more impossible to talk about it. First, the monitored Han fleet rushed in from the flank, and within a quarter of an hour, another Han fleet that was upstream also suddenly joined the battlefield.

Water battles are fire battles, and rockets are constantly fired at each other. After all, warships are made of wood.Huan Wen could see the thick smoke rising to the sky from a distance, indicating that after the water battle broke out, there would be a fierce battle immediately, but he didn't know who was taking advantage.

War broke out suddenly on the Yangtze River, and gongs were sounded all over the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Huan Wen heard it with his own ears and saw it with his own eyes!
