sweeping the world

Chapter 505 The Death of the Little Court ([-])
My name is Xizhi, and I was born in the Wang family of Langya.

I have been taught by the elders of my family since I was a child, and I have become famous for calligraphy since I was a child.At the age of seven, he was loyal to the emperor's affairs and obeyed the order of running script on wood. The wood was cut into three layers and there was ink, so he was praised.

I was later honored by Duke Wen Cheng (the posthumous title of Xi Jian), and I married a daughter of the Qi family.

Everyone in the world knows that my calligraphy is unparalleled, but it is because of the fact that "the son-in-law of the east bed is quick" to convey it to the world.

I love my wife very much, but I don’t like people in the world to talk about my son-in-law. Every time I hear it, I feel very annoyed, but the world regards it as a good talk, and I am really depressed.

Born in the Wang family of Langya, I don't have to suffer for food, clothing, housing and transportation, but I have to shoulder the important task of revitalizing the family.The Langya Wang clan was prosperous at one time, and there was a saying that "the king and the horse share the world", but this is a disaster for our Wang clan.

Since my uncle (Wang Dao) passed away, the Wang family of Langya has suffered continuously. Fortunately, two uncles (Wang Zhen and Wang Bin) advocated keeping a low profile, and the Wang family of Langya was spared the situation of fish death and net destruction. Our family is still standing in the country. towards.

As the saying goes, "The way of heaven is like drawing a bow! Those who are high suppress it, those who are low lift it up, those who have excess damage it, and those who are deficient give it. Who can have more than enough to serve the world? The only one who has the Tao." I deeply believe that what can last for a long time, and which family has a long-term prosperity, only the loss and the insufficiency and the surplus.

What I wish is not to be handed down to the world through calligraphy, nor do I want to be a free and unrestrained poet, but to protect the head of Guizhou as much as I can.Wish again, God bless the family for a long time.

However, if you sing about wine, how much life is like, like the dew in the morning, the past days are bitter.How difficult it is to be selfish.I have no choice but to shoulder heavy burdens, wander around the filthy court, and watch the country become more and more difficult, but there is no good way to save the world, how difficult it is.

When I first heard that there were Han tribes in the north, I thought it was the remnants of the Central Plains who rose up in the territory of the barbarians, like begging for a living army to survive.

When we heard about the Han tribe again, we learned that the territory of a county had been occupied, and that its leader used the name of the descendants of the Han Dynasty to bluff and deceive people and do things to confuse people's hearts.I secretly think that it is admirable to rise up to survive, but it is really not a son of man to borrow the blood of the descendants of the Han Dynasty.

Since when will swindlers have to occupy a state?I really don't know when the Hulu were so weak, but I was shocked that the name of the Han Dynasty appeared again.I really don't understand, Zhu Zi should not know that it is not easy to use the name of Han, and it will really attract the taboo of the court, and will attract the hostility of the public?

As far as I know, Guochao regards the barbarians as incompetent, and is willing to carry out the Northern Expedition again, with Zhong Chenggong (Yu Bing's posthumous title) as the main, and all the families attached to him, but the Great Zhao Tianwang (Shihu) gathered millions of people Surprised, the Northern Expedition came to an end halfway.

The Northern Expedition to the Central Plains is a lifelong wish of my generation, but I don't know about military affairs, and I have never made any advice under caution.

I heard again about the Pseudo-Han, I already know that they are performing sacrifices on Mount Tai. I regard them as the cause of chaos in the world, and the dynasty will definitely attack them with the king's troops.The Northern Expedition of the King's Division resumed. First, Duke Zhongcheng commanded his troops to seize the land of three counties. Later, the father-in-law lost his land and lost his troops. I actually know that it is not the Hulu who are incompetent, but the fake Han soldiers who are sharp.

The head of the state lost his land, lost his teacher and was captured, and the loyal Duke Cheng passed away and was replaced by (Yu) wings. I know that the country should blame the Yu family. I feel the reincarnation of the world.

Whenever I recall it, I think that the Yu family may be in trouble, and the suppression together with the Huan and Xie families is just to avoid future troubles. I did not expect Yi to do extraordinary things.

……

Wang Xizhi was riding in a carriage, surrounded by armored warrior guards.

The streets of Jiankang can be seen everywhere with corpses lying on the ground, and the blood stains on the ground are also shocking. The only thing that comforts Wang Xizhi is that the chaos has been stopped, even though the carriage is driving on a flat street. Shake it now and then.

The reason why the carriage vibrated was quite simple: the wheels crushed the body.

Huan Yun took the initiative to ask for Ying and was ordered to suppress the Jiankang Rebellion when he was in danger. The execution of the street cleansing could only keep people out of the street, but he did not arrange manpower to clean it up.

The real situation is that it is impossible for Huan Yun to completely suppress the chaos in Jiankang all at once. Wang Xizhi set off from Miyagi to Zhongshan City.Most of the dignitaries here are mansions, and those dignitaries cooperated with the city guards to quickly suppress the chaos, and the chaos in the rest of the city has not been contained.

As Wang Xizhi saw with his own eyes, there were no idlers on the street, and the gates of each house were closed. On the courtyard walls on both sides, you could see the guards of each house standing on wooden ladders. The most seen were guards with bows and arrows people.

In the distance, Wang Xizhi could actually hear obvious noises. The loudest noise was on the northwest side, where the Jiankang Rebellion started.

Xichuan City is also a concentrated residential area for dignitaries. The mansions of the four great aristocrats are located in this area. The surrounding area is basically the mansions of first-class families. The area occupied by each mansion is vast.Relatively speaking, although there are high-ranking officials and nobles living in the Zhongshan City District, it is only some second- and third-rate aristocratic families that really need to be divided.

Jiankang, the capital of the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, left only some peripheral areas for ordinary people, and the more distinguished people were, the closer they were to the center of the city.

There were as many as a thousand warriors guarding Wang Xizhi, and nearly a hundred of them were the core forces of the Wang clan in iron armor. They were going to escort Wang Xizhi to Mount She, which was one of the most likely theaters for the Han army to launch military operations.

Because the incident happened suddenly, the chaos probably occurred at Weishi (13:15 to 5:30), and it was almost two quarters of Youshi ([-]:[-]) waiting for the center of the small imperial court to respond. Waiting for Wang Xizhi to get on the carriage and come out of the city In fact, it was already nightfall at the gate of the city.

Chaos broke out in the city, including the city gates controlled by the Yu family's private army, which had already gathered countless soldiers, and those city gates that were still in the hands of the small imperial court were even more tightly closed under high alert.

Even though the east city gate had been notified early on that the Wang family clan would leave the city with a team, they were on high alert when they saw thousands of armed people approaching.

"Chengmen Lieutenant must see you." Wang Xie was full of anger. He had clearly shown the official seal and the family's private seal just now, but Chengmen Lieutenant was so bold: "As long as you give an order, the villain will do it!" Kill him with a knife."

"It's rare to be loyal to one's duty, what's the crime?" Wang Xizhi maintained a refined demeanor all the time, but he wouldn't be foolish enough to get out of the car to see the Chengmen captain, but ordered: "Bring me to see you."

The east city gate is in a blocked state, and it can be seen that there are soldiers holding torches, and guard soldiers are standing on the towers and walls.

"The villain has to do what he is ordered to do." Chengmen Wei is a man who looks gentle and gentle. Cai Rong, who was born in the Cai family of the top class, and Wang Xizhi are acquainted: "If you offend, please forgive me, General You."

Wang Xizhi didn't talk nonsense, he didn't even say a word, he just sat in the carriage and looked at Cai Rong.He was recalling which clan the Cai family was close to, and the answer he got was that the Cai clan was closer to the Huan clan. Considering that Huan Yun took over Jiankang's military command, it seemed that Cai Rong's dedication to his duty could also be explained.

After seeing the person, the city gate was naturally opened after the identity was confirmed, and the city gate was closed again after Wang Xizhi and his party all left the city.

Wang Xizhi, who was out of the city, was looking at the Jiankang city wall in the night. The torches on the long city wall formed a long dragon, and the flags on the flagpoles within the range of his vision were fluttering with the wind.

To the northeast of Jiankang City, where stars can be seen in the sky, Wang Xizhi felt comforted that he did not see the sky full of flames, and the absence of flames meant that there was no war.

"Wang Youjun has already left the city?" Huan Yun was in the inner city of the North City Gate, and about two or three miles ahead was the tower where Yu Yi was.There were many people standing not far behind him, and they were clearly dressed as family members from various families who had been summoned, and beside them were the core parts of the Huan clan's clan, so they asked, "What's happening in the Wang clan's mansion?"

The trilogy named Huang Dong replied immediately: "The gate of the mansion is closed, and there are guarding archers everywhere on the courtyard wall."

As long as Jiankang is a qualified family, who is not on high alert?If anyone dares to approach at this time, without permission, he will definitely be entertained by arrows.

Yu Yi was standing next to the guardrail at the highest point of the city tower. Outside the city, there were about ten thousand troops blocking the city. Inside the city, there were no less than three thousand troops. The army, they were surrounded by the city tower with a number of less than two thousand.

The city tower fell into a temporary calm, but the Yu family's mansion was engaged in an offensive and defensive battle, and the two sides competed with each other around the courtyard wall and gate.

Until now, Yu Yi is still a little confused. They are preparing to respond to the Han army, but it is definitely not today. If they really want to respond to the Han army, they are not building Kangcheng. After all, there are only two or three thousand armed forces in the city. Wan's garrison army plus the private armies of various powerful families, two or three thousand of the Yu family's private soldiers just splashed into the water and caused some ripples, which should subside.

For Yu Yi, things really shouldn't have developed like this, whether it was the communication with the Han army, or the agreement with the Huan clan and many aristocratic families.

"Father, the person who led the army to besiege us is Huan Yun, is it..." Yu Fangzhi looked somewhat flustered, and asked, "Will Huan Yun report?"

The reason why Yu Yi felt that there were no outstanding figures in the next generation was because of his conclusion from his eldest son. Not only Yu Fangzhi, but also his second son, Yu Aizhi, was not much better. Even his brother's descendants were all mediocre.

Huaxia pays attention to etiquette, even if it is hostile, it is just that the peers will directly call each other by their first names, and the juniors cannot appear so rude.No matter how flustered or angry Yu Fangzhi was, he couldn't call Huan Yun's name directly. He should have called Huan Clan or Duke Huan.

[Today's matter is not dominated by Huan Yun, and it is absolutely inseparable from it! 】Yu Yi has never liked Huan Yun, but it doesn't count if he hates Huan Yun. He can only say that he doesn't want to associate with him.He looked into the distance from a distance, knowing that Huan Yun was standing there, thinking about what Huan Yun meant more than once.He said to Yu Fangzhi flatly: "Just wait for the following."

Yu Fangzhi still wanted to say something, but Yu Yi glared at him and swallowed the words back to his stomach.

Huan Yun hadn't arrived before, and the troops commanded by Chu Xin outside the city and at the junction of the city wall had been attacking by force, and the fighting stopped after Huan Yun came over.

The two sides fought from day to night, in fact, Yu Yi's side was almost unable to hold on. If Huan Yun hadn't ordered a suspension of the offensive, I don't know if Yu Yi could stand on a high place to observe the situation.

Continuing to procrastinate is obviously not good for the people whose hearts are on the side of the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Chu Xin has a strong opinion on Huan Yun's order to suspend the offensive. While urging Huan Yun, Chu Xin sent his cronies to Miyagi to report.

Yu Yi was really waiting. He had a premonition that tonight would not be so simple. Apart from observing the enemy troops surrounding him, the direction of Xinzhou and Luoluoqiao was what he looked at most.

"Father!" Yu Fangzhi raised his finger to the streets of the inner city, a man on foot holding a torch was slowly approaching, and he seemed to hear something shouting from a distance.He said nervously, "Someone is coming."

Yu Yi has eyes to see, but he can't see the face of the person from a distance and in the dark, but he can guess that the person must have been assigned by Huan Yun.

The person near the tower was wearing a scholar's uniform. He explained that he was a guest of Huanyun, and wanted to represent Huanyun on the tower to meet Yu Yi.

Huan Yun's explanation to the outside was to send out disciples to persuade Yu Yi not to fight with trapped beasts, completely ignoring the suspicious or strange eyes of some family members.

In fact, the patriarchs of the aristocratic families who were summoned were confused. They couldn't bear that Huan Yun was summoned in the open air, and after they were summoned, they simply said a few words and left them aside.If it weren't for the guards around, and there were too many private soldiers of the Huan family, more than one of them wanted to leave in a huff.

Huan Yun is also waiting, the difference is that he doesn't need to constantly look at Xinzhou or Luo Luoqiao, and appears confident with complete determination.

A loud noise came from behind, Chu Xin pushed away the Huan family's private soldiers who were blocking the way, and came to Huan Yun's place with an extremely ugly expression.After urging Huan Yun to attack to no avail, he sent people to Miyagi, and got a reply from Miyagi to enter the city through other gates.

"Huh?" Huan Yun was full of surprises: "Sanqi Changshi is not outside the city, why are you here?"

Chu Xin was already poking her neck, and asked Huan Yun fearlessly: "What's the meaning of Duke Huan's move?!"

Huan Yun laughed and said, "Send your disciples to persuade Yu Gong to surrender?"

Chu Xin said bluntly with a decidedly unafraid expression, "Could it be that Duke Huan is also a traitor?"

To be honest, Chu Xin didn't lower his voice at all, he even questioned loudly deliberately, which really caused the uproar of the family members who were watching.

"This official is dedicated to his duty, so how come you talk about being a traitor?" Huan Yun was not angry at all, and even showed absolute tolerance for the younger generation: "Nephew Chu Xian, please wait for now. If there is no result in persuading Yugong to surrender, this official will naturally I will order my nephew to lead the army to attack, so my nephew should return to the outside of the city."

"Duke Huan!" Chu Xin almost roared, "Because of the people that Duke Huan sent to guard the city gate, the younger generation almost couldn't enter the city! What exactly is Duke Huan trying to do!"
