Former Qin Fengyun

Chapter 56 The Battle of Feishui【Part [-]】

In 382 A.D., Fu Jian on the Golden Palace said to the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty: "The widow has succeeded in his great cause for nearly 97 years, and the four directions have been roughly pacified. Only the southeast corner of the east has not been enlightened by the emperor. However, today there are [-] soldiers in the Great Qin Dynasty. Therefore, I want to conquer Jin personally. Dear friends, what do you think?"

Quan Yi immediately went out to salute and said: "Heavenly King, since Huan Wen died, the state of Jin has been in harmony. Although Qin ruled the north, its soldiers were exhausted, and Jin had the natural danger of the Yangtze River and Huai River. The meaning of the old minister is not to be attacked. .”

But Fu Jian said with great confidence: "What fear is there in the Huai River of the Yangtze River! The million-strong army of the Great Qin Dynasty, if they throw their horsewhips into the river, they can stop the flow immediately!" .

At this time, Gao Bi came out to salute and said: "I have reported to the king of heaven, but I think that the attack on Jin at this time is to take advantage of the time and place to make people harmonious."

Fu Jian said happily, "Speak!"

Gao Bi continued: "The talent of General Huan Wen has died of illness. This is the right time. Qin got Xiangyang because of the favorable location. The king of heaven ruled the north, and the people's hearts are stable, so people are harmonious."

Fu Jian nodded happily.

Prince Zuo Wei, the old minister of Qin, led Shi Yue, and said to himself: "Although the king of heaven treats the old ministers of Qin harshly, this matter is a matter of life and death for the survival of Qin." Huan Wen has already ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, which shows that this man has won many times over Huan Wen. However, now that the Duke of Qin has passed away, it is unacceptable to conquer Jin."

At this time, Prince Fu Hong and nearly a dozen former officials of Qin State also came out to salute and said: "The ministers also seconded."

Murong Chui just wanted to go out, but Gao Bi shook his head slightly, so Murong Chui stopped talking.

However, Yangping Duke Fu Rong came out to salute and said: "Heavenly King, this matter is important, why not discuss it another day?"

Fu Jian understood what he meant, so he nodded and retreated, and the officials dispersed.

Gao Bi whispered to Murong Chui: "General, please don't go back to the residence. After half an hour, go to Fengqi Palace to discuss this matter again."

Murong Chui asked tentatively, "To find Xixue?"

Gao Bi smiled and nodded.

At the same time, Fu Rong, who stayed in the Golden Palace, saw that the ten-year-old King of Zhongshan, Fu Shen, had not left, so he walked up to him and asked in puzzlement, "Why didn't Shen'er come back?"

But Fu Shen replied: "Father will return later, so that we can discuss the matter of attacking Jin with the emperor's uncle."

Fu Rong said with a smile: "Shen'er is really smart."

Fu Shen smiled and bowed his hands and said, "Thank you, Uncle Emperor, for your compliment."

At this moment, Fu Jian entered the palace again.Fu Rong and Fu Shen wanted to salute, but Fu Jian waved his hands and said directly: "I don't know my brother, what do you think?"

Fu Rong immediately replied: "Jin is orthodox, and God blesses it. And its talents are abundant, how can it be easily destroyed like a swallow?"

Fu Jian said dissatisfiedly: "Liu Chan is a direct descendant of the Han Dynasty, and the country is still subjugated!"

Although Fu Rong knew that Fu Jian was unhappy at this time, in order to prevent the subjugation of the country, he continued: "My brother is stupid, but the prince's wisdom is unmatched. When the prince was dying, he warned the emperor not to attack Jin. Therefore..." He It's not over yet.

But Fu Jian said: "When the prince died, the Great Qin had not yet unified the north, and there was a shortage of major generals. But now it has taken on a new look. If the prince was alive, he would also agree with this matter."

At this time, the young Fu Shen saluted and said: "Father, my sons and daughters have heard that the monarchs who have made great achievements since ancient times listen to the words of virtuous ministers with both talents and virtues. Today, the emperor's uncle is an outstanding minister of Qin. If he opposes it, there must be something wrong." Reason. If the father insists on going his own way, I am afraid there will be disaster for the country."

Fu Rong hurriedly knelt down to salute and said, "Heavenly King, Shen'er is young..." He didn't finish speaking.

Fu Jian pointed at Fu Shen angrily, and said loudly, "Everything I do is due to who! You compare the widow with the king who subjugated the country!"

Fu Shen had never seen Fu Jian get angry, so he knelt on the ground in fright and said in fear: "Father, calm down, my son knows his mistake."

Fu Rong immediately said: "Although Shen'er's words are reckless, her heart is sincere."

Only then did Fu Jian say in a gentle tone, "Get up, everyone."

Only then did Fu Rong and Fu Shen salute and thank and got up.Fu Rong saluted again and said, "Heavenly King, this matter is really impossible!"

Fu Jian said with a serious face, "There is no need to say too much, I have a decision in my heart."

Fu Rong was so anxious that he knelt down again, saluted and said: "Brother Huang..." He didn't finish.

Fu Jian took Fu Shen's hand, turned and left.With moist eyes, Fu Rong knelt down and cried bitterly, "Daqin is not long!"

Fu Jian, who was in a bad mood, brought Fu Shen back to Fengqi Palace. Zhang Muzhen hurried over, saluted and said, "Heavenly King."

Fu Jian said: "Get up." Then he sat down on the chair.

The alert Xixue saw that Fu Shen kept bowing her head and remained silent, so she hurried over, saluted and said, "My lord, this servant has just made a bowl of bird's nest with rock sugar. It tastes very good. I invite my lord to taste it."

Fu Shen nodded, and then bowed to Fu Jian and Zhang Muxie to leave.

When Fu Jian saw Fu Shen leave, he said displeasedly: "After a hundred years, the Great Qin will belong to this son, but he will block it. If Jin is successfully destroyed, who dares not to follow other princes and small countries! Wouldn't the world be unified? !"

Zhang Muxie handed the jade cup filled with tea to Fu Jian with a smile, and said softly, "Xu'er is still young, why does the king of heaven bother with her?"

At this time, Fu Jian looked at her and asked, "What do you think about the conquest of Jin?"

Zhang Muxie smiled and took Fu Jian's hand, and said, "Heavenly King is the Son of Dragon, and he has his own gods to protect him in the dark."

Only then did Fu Jian hold Zhang Muyi's hand with a smile, and said, "Muyi is the one who knows the widow."

Zhang Muchai smiled and said, "It's just this expedition, can my concubine and Shen'er go together?"

Fu Jian frowned and said, "A sword has no eyes, just in case..."

But Zhang Muchai shook his head and said: "Heavenly King is by his side, who dares to hurt us? Besides, Bao'er and Jin'er can also stay in Yang's residence temporarily, they will be safe."

Only then did Fu Jian nod and said, "Yang Ding and Bao'er had a marriage contract. Furthermore, Yang An is a stable person and also helps the prince to defend the city."

At this moment, Eunuch Zhang walked into the hall, saluted and said, "Report to Heavenly King, General Champion, please see me."

Fu Jian said: "Let him wait in the Tai Chi Hall."

Eunuch Zhang saluted and withdrew.

At the same time, Xixue came in, saluted and said, "Report to the Heavenly King, madam. The prince has gone to review the book."

Fu Jian turned around and said to Zhang Muxie: "Although Shen'er's words are inappropriate, she cites the past and discusses the present in an eloquent manner. Unlike a prince, she only knows how to go with the flow."

Zhang Muzhen immediately smiled and said: "It's only natural that a tiger father has no dogs."

Fu Jian smiled and left.

Zhang Muchai and Xi Xue saluted and sent him off, and after he left, they got up.

Xixue asked a little worriedly: "Ma'am, is it really okay to attack Jin this time?"

Zhang Muxie said worriedly: "Before Shen'er was crowned prince, everything was uncertain. This time there are millions of soldiers, even if they are defeated, they can retreat unscathed."

Xi Xue nodded and said: "Murong Chui and Gao Bi are the favorite ministers of the Heavenly King, and they hold real power in their hands. If they turn against and support the Crown Prince, the consequences will be disastrous."

Zhang Muxie sighed softly, and said: "The king of heaven has neglected the queen for several years, and Shen'er is also the king of Zhongshan. Instead of fighting for the throne, his life is at stake. If the crown prince ascends the throne as he wishes, the four of us, mother and son, will die without a place to die!"

Seeing Fu Jian walking in, Murong Chui hurriedly saluted, Fu Jian waved his hand and said, "Come here, give me a seat."

Murong Chui thanked him and sat down.

Fu Jian asked: "Is there something important for Aiqing to enter the palace?"

Murong Chui said: "Dare to ask the king of heaven, who supported and opposed King Wuling of Zhao when he was riding and shooting in Hufu?"

Fu Jian didn't know the reason, but he said truthfully: "Only the Prime Minister Fei Yi and the son of the clan support it, and the rest are against it."

Murong Chui said: "Sure enough, the Heavenly King has read a lot of poetry and books, and I have the courage to ask the Heavenly King again, what is the result of this matter?"

Fu Jian replied: "The State of Zhao has become a powerful country, and dare to compete with Qin Yi."

At this time, Fu Jian was silent.After pondering for a while, Fu Jian said with satisfaction: "You are the only one who decides the world with the widow. Come, I will give you five hundred pieces of silk and satin from Aiqing!"

Murong Chui saluted and thanked them with a smile. The two chatted for a long time before Fu Jian got up and left.

Murong Chui, who returned to the General's Mansion, saw Gao Bi who had been waiting for a long time come in, saluted and said, "General, how are you?"

Murong Chui said with a smile: "Everything is done according to plan."

Only then did Gao Bi nod his head reassuringly.

Murong Chui asked suspiciously: "Will Jin really send troops to seize the city?"

Gao Bi said confidently: "According to Zhu's preface, most of Jin's military power is in the hands of Xie An, and this man's heart towards Jin is not inferior to Wang Meng. How can he tolerate Xiangyang falling heavily into Qin's hands?"

Murong hung his head and said: "At the beginning when I showed my scheming to him, I was worried that this person would inform Qin. Now it seems that it is really unfounded worrying."

Gao Bi said: "This person is Huan Wen's confidant, and everyone in the world knows about it. If the Jin Kingdom is destroyed, how can Xie An and others just let it go, even the Huan family can do the same."

Murong Chui said in agreement: "Although Huan Wen is a powerful minister, he is still a hero. To the end of his life, he will not bear the mutiny, fearing that Jin will be destroyed by Qin."

Gao Bi said again: "And I know our intentions, if you don't obey, you will be killed. Therefore, you choose to put all your eggs in one basket and sincerely save Jin. Not only can you save your life, but you can also gain a reputation for loyalty."

Murong Chui said reassuringly: "Fu Jiankong has a reputation of millions of soldiers, but he doesn't know that there are many examples of winning more with less. Back then, Xiang Yu broke the boat and fought with his back, which is the best example."

Gao Bi nodded and said, "Fu Jian already has the intention to destroy the Jin Dynasty, and the restoration of the Yan Kingdom is just around the corner."

In 383 A.D., Fu Jian, who was in the early court, suddenly saw the reporter walk into the hall, saluted and said: "I report to the king of heaven, Huan Chong, the governor of Jingzhou in the state of Jin, led the army to attack Xiangyang."

When Fu Jian heard this, he got up overjoyed and said, "I'm looking for my own death. Duke Yang Ping led General Murong, General Zhang, General Lu, General Liang and 25 soldiers as vanguards in order to conquer the governor. I personally led the army and used Xiangyang as my mouth. In addition, although Xie An is a literati, he should not be underestimated. Therefore, General Yao was ordered to lead 20 troops to block it, and he was also named General Longxiang, hoping that he will triumph."

Before Yao Chang saluted and thanked him, Quan Yi went out to salute and said: "General Long Xiang is the title used by the Heavenly King, how can he give it to someone else? Wanwang Heavenly King will take it back."

When Fu Jian heard it, he felt that it was quite reasonable, but he was the king of a country with a golden mouth, so how could he take it back?So he had to say: "It doesn't matter."

Two days later, the million-strong army left Chang'an and marched east and southeast respectively.Because there are many people and the roads are narrow, they can only walk in batches little by little. Therefore, there are more than a thousand miles before and after the march. Only the 25 soldiers of the Qin army who really charged into the battle.

Sitting in the car, Zhang Muxi lifted the curtain and looked out, only to see countless Qin soldiers walking slowly and mightily.Fu Jian said: "Madam, don't worry, this battle must be won." Zhang Muxie smiled back and nodded in agreement.Then, Fu Jian took Fu Shen's little hand and said, "When Shen'er ascended the throne, the world had already been unified." Fu Shen smiled happily.

Zhang Muzhen said with a smile: "People are born, their destiny is fixed. Although Murongzhen was the Emperor of Yan, now he also goes out with the army."

Fu Jian nodded with a smile and said, "Shen'er is the real dragon emperor, how can Murong Qing compare with him?"

At the same time, Prince Fu Hong was feeding Queen Gou medicine with a medicine bowl.

Queen Gou asked, "Why is there so much noise in the palace these days?"

Crown Prince Fu Hong replied dejectedly: "Father leads millions of troops, intending to destroy Jin."

Empress Gou said with a smile: "Leading a million troops, there is no doubt that Jin will be destroyed." But suddenly she said sadly to herself: "After the world is unified, Murong Chui should be the Prime Minister. In addition, the Heavenly King loves the mother and child so much, I am afraid..." She Before he finished speaking, he coughed violently.

Prince Fu Hong hurriedly supported Empress Gou, and said anxiously: "Mother, I am so sad."

Empress Gou blamed herself with tears streaming down her face, "If I knew this earlier, my mother shouldn't have brought you into this world. From ancient times to the present, if the crown prince abolishes him, how many people will have a good death?"

Prince Fu Hong also cried and said: "It is enough for a son and minister to have a mother!"

Empress Gou hugged Prince Fu Hong heartbrokenly, and cried loudly for a long time.

Xie An, who was drinking tea, saw his nephew Xie Xuan hurried in, saluted and said, "Uncle, Fu Jian led a million troops to destroy the Jin Kingdom."

Xie An asked calmly, "Who is the leader?"

Xie Xuan replied: "Fu Rong became the governor, and Murong Chui, Zhang Hao, and Lu Polou followed suit."

Xie Anyun said calmly: "The "Sun Tzu's Art of War" once said that it is better to have more soldiers. The best soldiers are not too many. Order Xie Shi to be the governor of the conquest, and you are the vanguard. This battle will surely be won." Hand the written letter to Xie Xuan.

Xie Xuan took the letter and said to himself: "But the Jin army is less than one hundred thousand, and the Qin army has a million soldiers." So he held the letter in his hand anxiously and said, "Uncle, can you explain it in detail?"

Xie An looked at the preoccupied Xie Xuan, and said, "Give this letter to Xie Shi."

Xie Xuanlue said anxiously: "Uncle..." He hadn't finished speaking yet.

Xie An said: "There is another purpose."

Xie Xuan had no choice but to salute and leave.But when he went out of the mansion, he saw Henry Zhang, Xie An's aide, and walked over quickly to salute him.

Henry Zhang hurriedly returned the gift, and said, "Young master."

Xie Xuan said: "Millions of Qin troops want to destroy Jin, but my uncle didn't say anything in detail? I hope that when you play chess with him, you can find out a thing or two."

Henry Zhang nodded yes.

After a while, Henry Zhang came to Xie An, saluted and said, "My lord."

Xie An put down his teacup, smiled and said, "Play chess with me, okay?"

Henry Zhang nodded yes.

After two incense sticks, Henry Zhang abandoned his son and surrendered.

But Xie An said: "My chess strength is far inferior to that of the king, and now I am losing, but I am absent-minded in order to find out about fighting Qin?"

Henry Zhang’s face was slightly flushed, and before he could speak, Xie An continued: “No need to work hard, just wait for the good news.”

In the dead of night, occasionally a few Jin troops walked back and forth on Shouyang City to inspect.Suddenly, Zhang Hao and Liang Cheng led [-] elite soldiers to attack Shouyang at night.Because of the lax defense, they killed the Jin army on the city very easily and smoothly, and then Zhang Hao and others opened the city gate wide, and Fu Rong led the army into Shouyang like a tide.Not only half an hour later, the Qin army successfully occupied the city.

Fu Rong originally thought that this battle would be very difficult, but he never thought that the result would be like this.Even Lu Polou, who was always cautious, smiled and saluted Fu Rong and said, "It seems that Jin, without Huanwen, is really vulnerable."

Fu Rong nodded, then turned to Liang Cheng and said, "General Liang, I order you to lead [-] troops to garrison Luojian in case of Jin reinforcements."

Liang Cheng saluted and said yes.

At this time, Zhang Hao escorted a general of the Jin army and came over to meet Fu Rong.

Fu Rong asked, "Report your name."

The man was so frightened that he replied nervously: "Hu, Hu Bin." After speaking, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed and begged: "General, spare your life!"

Fu Rong asked again: "Shouyang is an important town, but why is there a shortage of major generals in the city?"

Hu Bin hurriedly replied: "The general doesn't know something. Now the Xie family and the Huan family in the state of Jin are fighting for power and interests. Because I obey Huan Chong's orders, Xie Shi and Xie Xuan will not save them."

Fu Rong immediately asked, "The chief general, Xie Shi, is also in Shouyang?"

Hu Bin nodded and said, "It's a hundred miles away."

Fu Rong asked suspiciously: "Is this really true?"

Hu Bin opened his eyes wide and said: "I'm a lowly order, already in the hands of the general, how dare you speak nonsense? Then Xie Shi relied on some soldiers and horses in his hands, so he ordered him to serve him with good wine and meat every day, but who knows? Act like this!" Hu Bin wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his hands.

Lu Polou tried to ask: "Xie Shi is the commander of the first army, and he ordered you to send some food?"

Hu Bin said angrily: "If it weren't for this, how would he survive? The food and grass he brought is less than [-] dan, how can he feed an army of [-]?"

Fu Rong was overjoyed when he heard that, and then said: "Take him down, don't neglect."

Several soldiers took Hu Bin down.

Fu Rong was overjoyed and said to several generals: "God bless Qin, you should ask the king of heaven to personally oversee the battle and destroy Jin!"
