Wanyan Hongxu wanted to use Jiugong's feudalism to buy people's hearts, suppress Wanyanxu, and prevent Wanyanxu from continuing to be complacent, but he didn't know that this time he was playing smart again, and the result could only be shooting himself in the foot.

Among the nine local separatist regimes, including Prince Rong's son Wanyan Chuo, most of them hold heavy soldiers. Since they are independent from each other, they are quite bold and bold. Come to think of it, there are no local tycoons who are truly capable of competing with Wanyan Xu.Many of these people are just idiots who are used to seeing the wind and the wind, let them take advantage of troubled waters, no problem, if you really want to unite and help Wanyan Hongxu create chaos, don't even think about it, no one is stupid , there is no real benefit, who would risk his life to help Yan Hongxu?Isn't that suicidal?

For these mobsters, Wanyan Chuo even found it troublesome to recruit them. What's even more ridiculous, Wanyan Hongxu even made great efforts to subdivide Brother Yeluliu in Liaodong. He probably didn't know that Brother Yeluliu and the Khitan people in Liaodong area had been captured. The son of King Rong recruited him, and he thought he could lure him with profit, but he didn't even think about it. Brother Yeluliu even overturned the covenant he made with Okuotai Khan, and he followed the son of Rong wholeheartedly. This petty profit leaked out of Wanyan Hongxu's hand?With a sneer, he directly took the title awarded by Wanyan Hongxu as a certificate of allegiance to the King of Jin, Wanyanxu.

As soon as he received the edict of enfeoffment from the envoy sent by Wanyan Hongxu, he turned around and surrendered to Wanyanxu without hesitation to show his loyalty.They are all people who vowed to follow Prince Rong's son. Since Zhongducheng is the king chosen by Prince Rong's son, the Khitan people in the Liaodong region will also be loyal and willing to help.

Such a situation was really beyond Wanyan Hongxu's expectation. After Wanyan Hongxu learned about it, he was completely dumbfounded. It was different from what he expected!How did Brother Yeluliu do it?After accepting the enfeoffment edict, shouldn't he be grateful to him and swear allegiance to him to the death?Why did he turn to Wanyan Xu in Zhongducheng, how embarrassing did this make him?How embarrassing!

While Wanyan Wanyan Hongxu was still in a daze, unable to figure out the state of confusion, and hadn't recovered yet, Wanyan Chuo returned to the Kingdom of Jin, but he didn't go back to the central capital, but went to Xijing, and waited for him. The large troops of the Zhongxiao Army gathered there, Chen Liang, Wan Yannuo, Ta Yun, Yelu Yujian and other Zhongxiao Army generals were all here, as well as Si Tui and Li Dian, who had been looking forward to it for a long time.

"Master..." When they met again, Si Tui couldn't help but blushed when he saw Wan Yan Chuo, full of grievances and emotions, and suddenly had nothing to say.

"Okay, okay! Manly man, you bleed, sweat, but don't cry, why are you crying?" Wanyan joked with a smile, walked over, patted the shoulders of several loyal and filial army generals one by one, and said to boost morale: "Everyone, long time no see. Come on, stay safe!"

"Thank you, Master, for your concern..."

Before Si Tui finished speaking, he was interrupted by Yelu Yu with a smile, and said jokingly: "What else do you call your son? Our son has been promoted, and now he is the only military commander in the world in the Dajin Kingdom. Yes, it’s even more justifiable than Shuhu Gaoqi’s rebellious minister! We should all change our names to Marshal Shi Ziye!”

Wanyan Nuo secretly rolled his eyes at the sky, speechless.

Si Tui blushed, scratched his head embarrassingly, and said with a little embarrassment: "Master..."

"It doesn't matter!" Wanyan Chuo smiled kindly and didn't take it seriously: "Whether it's the son of the world or the marshal, we are brothers in the same robe, we will advance and retreat together, we will live and die together, why should we care about a title?"

The words that Wan Yanchuo blurted out moved the generals of the Zhongxiao Army very much, because they all knew that the words of the Shizi were definitely not just casual words. It has been proved, what is to do what you say, what is to say what you say.

Looking at each other, the officers and soldiers of the Loyal and Filial Piety Army suddenly knelt down in front of Wan Yanchuo with a tacit understanding, and said in unison: "The subordinates are willing to do the same work for the son of the world, go through fire and knife, and die in return."

Facing this unanimous move, Wanyan Chuo didn't react for a while, and was stunned on the spot, and could only hear the resounding eight words in his ears: If you go to the fire, you will go through the knife, and you will die.

Loyalty, righteousness and courage, for the country and the people, go through fire and knife, death will not pay back.This is the principle that Wan Yanchuo personally set for the officers and soldiers of the Zhongxiao Army when he founded the Zhongxiao Army, and Wanyan Chuo has always flaunted it and set an example. Hearing the oath made by his generals today, he is even more moved.

"Get up!" Wan Yanchuo didn't realize it, and when he spoke, his voice was already a little choked up: "You generals guard the country of Tuwei, protect the people of one side, and have made great achievements. It is obvious to all, and the people of the Kingdom of Jin will never forget your hard work. , His Majesty will not."

After the big and small rebellions in the four places are resolved and the Dajin is unified, the first thing Wanyan Chuo does when he returns to the central capital is to attack Wanyanxu and reward his generals who have been through life and death for their meritorious deeds. bit.

In fact, these generals of the Loyal and Filial Army don’t have much ambition to increase their ranks, and they all have self-knowledge, knowing that following the prince is a long-term solution, otherwise, even if they climbed to a high position, they still won’t be able to keep it Little life.

If Wanyan Chuo knew the true thoughts of his generals, he would probably vomit blood in anger. A group of unmotivated guys would simply embarrass their loyal and filial army.

But right now, the first problem Wanyan Chuo has to solve is that after moving the capital to Nanjing, the Wanyan Hongxu regime with a bad reputation has no two days, no two masters in the country, and Wanyan Hongxu exists for a day. Every emotion is a threat.

As a minister, he should share the worries of the king. Wanyan Chuo volunteered to invite Wanyan Xu, frankly, now the time has come, and I ask His Majesty to issue another imperial decree, sending the son of Prince Rong to lead the loyal and filial army to march south, unify the Kingdom of Jin, and renew the imperial edict. The whole river and mountain.

Wan Yanxu readily agreed.

Wan Yanchuo received the imperial decree from the central capital, and raised the banner in the Zhongxiao Army: This southern expedition is to remember the suffering of the old people and to restore the former territory of the Great Jin Kingdom.

Hearing this, the soldiers were full of enthusiasm and high morale.

Wanyan Chuo was confident about leading the army to the south and quelling the rebellion of Wanyan Hongxu and Puxian Wannu. He said this to all the soldiers of the Zhongxiao Army: "Prince Rui Wanyan Hongxu is very happy with his achievements, and he also likes strict punishments and laws, and his government is dignified." Therefore, the officials in Nandu are very harsh, and the soldiers and civilians in Nanjing all feel resentment against them. This time the Southern Expedition, the Heavenly Response, Shuhu Gaoqi and Wanyan Hongxu are nothing to worry about."

Comparing Wanyan Hongxu in Nanjing with Wanyanxu in Zhongdu, one is the lord of ZTE, wise and benevolent, surrounded by good ministers and good generals, and the other is the ignorant lord, self-willed, courteous and courteous , the government is confused, who is strong and who is weak, anyone with long eyes can easily tell.

In fact, Wanyan Hongxu was already over half a century old when he succeeded to the throne in a hurry. Coupled with the hard work during this period of time, by this time, the fuel was exhausted and the time was running out. It is powerless, at this time, the most important thing is to choose an heir.

Of course Wanyan Hongxu didn't want to just hand over the supreme right that was acquired with great difficulty. Wanyan Xu got cheap for nothing. Most of the people who roll around in this world of mortals are selfish, and Wanyan Hongxu is no exception. What is loyalty to the liver and courage, what is for the country and the people, before Wanyan Hongxu has such a lofty consciousness, he wants to consolidate the power he has already obtained and pass it on to his descendants.

However, Wanyan Hongxu started to have trouble with the matter of the imperial heir again. Perhaps it was because Wanyan Hongxu was not favored by the late emperor since he was a child. Over time, he developed a cowardly character. Every time he made a decision, he always hesitated and took it for a long time. Not sure.

As the old saying goes: When you stop and stop, you will be subject to chaos.

With regard to the matter of drafting an heir, Wanyan Hongxu had a hard time thinking about it. According to the suggestion of a few senior and respected senior ministers in the court, Wanyan Zong should be the eldest son. agree.But in his heart, Wanyan Hongxu pays more attention to his youngest son, Wanyan Shao.

In fact, Wanyan Hongxu wanted to choose the younger son as heir, not because he favored the younger son, or because he was dissatisfied with the eldest son, but because he couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart.

Back then, Wokuotai Khan, the lord of the Great Mongol Khanate, led 20 Mongolian troops to the city and besieged Zhongdu. Wanyan Hongxu ran for his life in a hurry to protect himself, but was discovered by the soldiers and civilians of Zhongdu, blocked the gate of the city, and escaped. no.In desperation, Wanyan Hongxu had no choice but to sever his wrist, and ordered his eldest son Wanyan Zong to stay in Zhongdu for him and take charge of the overall situation. This move was tantamount to pushing Wanyan Zong into the fire pit.Wanyan Hongxu also knew that what he had done was not kind. Not long after he left Zhongdu, he immediately issued an imperial edict, so that Wanyan Zong didn't have to worry about it and quickly got out of it. Since arriving in Nanjing, they are obviously not as close to him as they were when they were in Zhongdu. In contrast, Wanyan Shao, a well-behaved and sensible youngest son, seems to be more sympathetic to him.

Since ancient times, there have been many tragedies and tragedies in fighting for power and position. It seems that this drama will be staged in Nanjing soon.

After Wanyan Chuo heard the news, he carefully thought about his strategy for the southern expedition, and deduced: "Prince Rui Wanyan Hongxi has a cowardly character, hesitates, and has been unable to decide on his successor for a long time. Now, Wanyan Zonghe The two brothers Wanyan and Shao are about the same age, each has their own faction to support them, and they are evenly matched. If the two brothers are forced to march south at this time, they will probably turn enemies into friends, support each other, share the same hatred, and be united in their loyalty and filial piety to us. The army is also at a disadvantage."

"The Marshal means..."

"When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman wins." Wanyan Chuo never fights uncertain battles, but he prefers the feeling of being exhaustive and strategizing, which gives him a sense of accomplishment. "At this time, you might as well take it easy, sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and wait to reap the benefits of the fisherman."

Everyone understood the meaning of Prince Rong's son. To suspend the southern expedition is like pouring cold water on the soldiers of the loyal and filial army with high morale. Everyone is very unwilling, but the son's words are not unreasonable. Everyone had to obey.
