sweeping the world

Chapter 880 Wise Choice
Today, the surname is not Sima, and the court is not the small court that can only be used as a signboard, but even if the small court of the Sima royal family is as bad as it used to be, the four great families and powerful families can easily become kings. , and no one is going to do that.

No one did it before, it’s not that they were not interested (ambition), it’s because the Shenzhou Luchen Mountains and Rivers are broken, if the Hulu north of the Yangtze River are weaker, the small court will definitely appear again and again, but the Northern Hulu is too strong, everyone I understand that there should be no further internal disturbances, otherwise the big guys should wait for the Hulu to kill the Yangtze River and become slaves in the true sense together.

Even in that case, is there still a shortage of "autonomous regions" south of the Yangtze River?Wang, Yu, Xie, and Huan have their own control areas. If they are not willing, the small court will not be able to control even a hair.

Historically, Huan Wen led his army to conquer Bashu, and then he happily prepared for the kingship and controlled Bashu as his own territory. All he had to do was hold a ceremony to declare the king, and all the nobles and noble families, including the Huan family, persuaded him to do so. Some of them couldn't be persuaded, so they threatened them together, so they didn't cause the trouble of breaking the earth and sealing the king.

In history, Huan Wen did not proclaim himself king until his death, but before his death, any order from the small court could not enter the control area under his command.After being extremely disappointed with the small imperial court, he never restrained his ambitions. Instead, he repeatedly launched large and small northern expeditions, and at one point almost took the entire Guanzhong back from the hands of the Hulu, in order to accumulate more prestige, so that Those who oppose lose their grounds for objection.

Yuan Qiao was not targeting Huan Wen, nor did he think Huan Wen had the courage to establish himself as king.

It is Yuan Qiao who has read a lot of books, and there are too many examples in history books.

A certain general was very devoted to his duties, but this general led his army to victory again and again. From the defeater's efforts to curry favor and the flattery of others, the general began to swell slowly, repeatedly testing the army led by his subordinates, and It is the center of testing allegiance, and then it is really reversed.

In recent days, in order to survive and leave more property, Asan, the defeated one, or out of a simple desire to please the victor, used various means to please Huan Wen.

Not only the defeated Asan, people from Rome, Sassanid and other countries, one by one, are trying their best to please any Han people who need them to please.

Humans can withstand one, two, three... or even dozens of times of flattery, but as long as there is such a distraction, it is the beginning of degeneration.

After accepting flattery once, I will then think that I am awesome and should be flattered.

If people with a little bit of power in their hands swell up, not too many people will be harmed, and the harm caused to the country by using power is also within the scope of their own authority.

If the general with heavy palms becomes inflated and really thinks that all victories are achieved under his wise leadership, and the combined effect of the rest of the generals and soldiers is not as great as his own, he will enter the arrogant mode.

With a general who is arrogant, even if his next united battle does not fail, his army will suffer unnecessary losses. He may even really feel that the world should revolve around him, and he will consider whether to pull someone over. Get off your horse and play a game where the emperor takes turns coming to my house next year.

Huan Wen thought a lot in a short period of time, and he asked himself if he couldn't help but feel tempted to test the generals under his command when he couldn't sleep in the middle of the night.

Huan Wen didn't have time to think about the deeper things, but if there were really a few people who were willing to do anything with him, they would start to win over the commanding class and buy the love of the soldiers.The next step is to find opportunities to kill the generals who are unwilling to move closer to him. After truly taking control of the army, it is time to think about whether to rebel directly or to play a trick on the side of the emperor.

Of course, Huan Wen just couldn't control himself and wanted to test the generals' attitude towards him. Only those rebels who planned big things would plan and execute them. He knew very well that he would not do those things.All because he was not the most powerful general in the Han Dynasty, and General Zhengnan was just one of the four "conquests".

There is another thing that is very important to Huan Wen. His deputy... is Yuan Qiao, the chief of the expeditionary army, such a close friend with a deep friendship. It's just that it's worth thinking about how the subordinates in the superior-subordinate relationship will react when they realize it.

[Son of Heaven...] Huan Wen didn't dare to think about it any more. He came back to find that he was not only sweating profusely, but was also drenched all over. He pulled an ugly smile on Yuan Qiao who had been staring at him, and said : "There is only the end of the battle here. After thinking about it, Wen Lue should return to the homeland first."

Just now, Yuan Qiao was thinking about whether to go out or not. He should first summon the halberd-bearing doctors, and then call in the law enforcement team to surround the Chinese army's tent. Next, it depends on whether there will be a cup-breaking ceremony or something. Is Huan Wen willing to accept the suggestion of returning to his homeland first?

"This is excellent." Yuan Qiao smiled happily and said sincerely: "Although he returned without orders, Yuanzi did not lead the army, but only followed the angel back."

Huan Wen had thought of this just now. The general who was on an expedition returned home privately without receiving orders, but left at the final stage of the war to destroy the country. This behavior showed to the emperor that he was not attached to power.

"That..." Huan Wen's heart was more or less confused, and he sought opinions: "Is Wen secretly hiding treasures?"

"..." Yuan Qiao was stunned at first, but later realized that Huan Wen was seeking advice on whether to commit suicide. Many generals in history used this method to dispel the king's wariness.He made a dumbfounded smile, shook his head and said, "Yuanzi is upset!"

Huan Wen immediately showed an "囧" expression, thinking that what he did just now was funny, the emperor delegated power indefinitely, there is really no need to do such small tricks, and if he is an emperor, he will think too much and be laughed at by his colleagues.

"It's better to hit the sun than to choose the day!" Huan Wen was a very vigorous person, and shouted to the outside: "Come on!"

The curtain was opened, and Xi Chao, who was dressed as a halberd-wielding doctor, entered quickly, saluted and stood as if waiting for orders.

Huan Wen had just subconsciously stared outside the curtain. When the curtain was opened, his eyes widened to see if there was any swordsman or something. Obviously, he didn't see any swordsman.

"Command!" Huan Wen couldn't help grinning, with a relaxed smile in his heart: "Notify the ships in the port to get ready, tell the angels and all the envoys that the fleet will set sail and return to the mainland in a few days."

Xi Chao is the eldest son of Xi Yin, who is only 16 years old this year.In fact, he was also one of the second generation who was gilded here by Sailai Huanwen. It was very unlucky to get the lottery left behind, but he sighed a lot.When he heard Huan Wen's order, he was stunned. After he realized that Huan Wen was not angry, he quickly saluted and walked out quickly.

Asan Continent, if you want to say who has the most power at present, it is undoubtedly Huan Wen, who is the supreme commander of the expeditionary force.

According to the words of the Romans and Persians, if Huan Wen just stomped his feet a little bit now, there would be an earthquake in Asan Continent, but it was not an earthquake, it shook people's hearts.

The order was sent from the Chinese military tent where Huan Wen was, and hundreds of fast riders galloped out of the barracks in an instant. Some of them would go to Cuttack Port where the fleet was docked, and more of them scattered to various places to inform international friends who were visiting everywhere.

When Wang Meng received the notice, he was in Fahrenheit City. It was mainly Julian and Xyas who strongly requested to come and visit this Gupta Dynasty.

The Romans and Persians did not hear rumors about Fahrenheit City. According to legend, it is a garden city, not even losing to the legendary city of "Sky Garden".

I came here and walked around in person, and the royal family of Gupta is indeed very careful in running Fahrenheit City. The whole city not only has an absolutely majestic city wall, but also has the largest greenery in today's era.

The majestic city wall with a height of nearly 40 meters did not prevent the fall of Fahrenheit City, and it even had no chance to play its role. The last king of the Gupta Dynasty, Zhanragupta, was still roaring in the palace to resist to the end, and the Han people survived on the other side The nobles who promised had already opened the city gate.

The only place where battles took place in the capture of Huashi City was in the main hall. The five hundred warriors who were willing to fight to the end with Zhanragupta were all killed. Zhanluoluo, who was yelling to die just a moment ago, lost the weapon in his hand. Very cooperatively became a prisoner of the Han army.

Wang Meng was standing on the highest tower in the palace city. Standing here, he could have a panoramic view of the entire Huashi City. What he saw was a city with "houses" and "squares".

In fact, this is the one where the roads are planned. How many households are housed in one Lu, and how many Lu are made into a square. It doesn't look like a messy building complex.

Ah San's architecture is very similar to Zhu Xia's, that is, compared with Zhu Xia, more bricks, stones and clay are used in construction, and timber structures are rarely used. (Buddhism brought Asan's architectural pattern to Zhuxia)

There is indeed a sky garden in Fahrenheit City, but it is just that the hills are leveled, the palace is built, flowers and trees are planted, and even many rare animals are deliberately placed.

There are a few peacocks behind Wang Meng, their tails are blooming, and they look very dazzling and gorgeous under the tail.

Wang Meng thought that such a beautiful animal must be a female, but Ah San, who was in charge of raising it, told him that it was a male. He also said that generally good-looking animals are female, and explained what is the necessary "coat" for male animals to court theories like this.

"Come here, hurry up and pack all the animals you listed before!" Fu Wei was talking about the animals that were to be brought home. After roaring, he turned to Wang Meng and said, "Why did General Zhengnan suddenly come with such a notice?"

Wang Meng smiled and shook his head.He actually guessed why Huan Wen made such a sudden move, and thought from his heart that Huan Wen's choice was extremely correct. He deserved to be the new head of the Huan clan, and he also fit the rumored image of Huan Wen's wisdom.

Julian could understand Chinese, but he held back when he wanted to say something after the accident.

"Hey!?" Xyas was working hard to learn Chinese, but he still couldn't understand, so he asked, "What happened?"

Julian replied earnestly: "The general who conquered the south of the Han Empire is going to return home early."
