The Maojin knife from the late Jin Dynasty

Chapter 98 Yongjia Rebellion
During the period when Liu Tai and Gou Xi were fighting, the Huns and Han Kingdom in the north were actually not idle.

Especially after the main force of the Jin army represented by Sima Yue was defeated by Shi Le in the Battle of Ning Pingcheng, Liu Cong decisively ordered Hu Yanyan to join Wang Mi, Liu Yao, and Shi Le in Luoyang.

Gather the main forces of the Huns and Han to attack Luoyang. As for Liu Tai, let him continue to contain Gou Xi.

After all, Gou Xi had already expressed his intention to join forces with Sima Chi at this time, and the Huns and Han Kingdom were also afraid that Gou Xi would be released and ruin the entire war situation, so they still hoped that Liu Tai could contain Gou Xi.

Of course, they did not expect that Liu Tai was going to kill Gou Xi directly, and after defeating Gou Xi, he completed the Great Demon King's job transfer.

But no matter what, Gou Xi will not be able to affect this battle to defend Luoyang.

However, Gou Xi sent Liu Hui and others to support Luoyang. In fact, both Liu Hui and supplies were delivered.

It's just that the decision of whether to move the capital was made by Sima Chi himself, who was definitely willing to move the capital.

But the courtiers around him did not support Sima Chi's decision.

After all, these courtiers know that although Luoyang is difficult now, they can still control the government here to some extent.

But if they go to Gou Xi's territory, then he and others will no longer control the government, but will be the objects of control.

After all, as long as he is a son of an aristocratic family, he will not have much trust in a martial artist born in a poor family.

How did the Eastern Han Dynasty end? Aren’t the lessons of Dong Zhuo, Li Jue and Guo Si still profound? !
If you put yourself under Gou Xi's command, what's the difference between being controlled by a warrior who controlled the government in the Eastern Han Dynasty!
At least now the Jin court is dead, but in the end they follow the rules. If Gou Xi has the power, then Gou Xi is the rule.

But for Sima Chi, who had been controlling the government, even if someone else controlled the government, it would still be better than waiting to die in Luoyang, so he made up his mind to move the capital with the thought that the courtiers would not leave.

But at this time, the consequences of Sima Yue taking all the power of the Jin court away came.

Sima Chi discovered that the saddest thing about being an emperor was not that he was held hostage by some force, but that he did not even have the power to hold himself hostage.

Sima Chi couldn't even gather a team of generals to protect him.

What is the situation outside Luoyang now? To say that people cannibalize people is an understatement, so Sima Chi soon encountered rebels and people and was forced to retreat.

But if Sima Chi doesn't leave, there will be no chance again.

First, Hu Yanyan led 3 soldiers to invade Luoyang. The Jin army lost twelve battles in a row, killing [-] people. It can be said that it was a complete defeat.

Then Wang Mi and Liu Yao came one after another. Finally, Wang Mi and Hu Yanyan took the lead in conquering Xuanyang Gate, breaking through Luoyang, entering the Nangong, ascending to the Taiji Hall, and letting the soldiers loot and plunder. The entire Luoyang was almost reduced to a human purgatory, and this This scene is called the Yongjia Rebellion.

Like killing the royal relatives of the Sima family, forcing the death of more than 3 scholars and civilians, and digging up the tombs and temples of the Western Jin Dynasty...

Basically, Wang Mi did what Dong Zhuo led the Xiliang army, and Liu Yao did what the Xiliang army had never done before.

For example, like insulting the Sheep Queen, Liu Yao directly accepted the Queen's appearance and married her without any scruples.

To be honest, this can only be because the habits of the Xiongnu have not changed. In the end, the Xiongnu and the Han Kingdom are still in front and the Han Kingdom is behind.

Otherwise, even a peasant would know that even if the Jin court was overthrown, no matter how beautiful and troublesome Queen Sheep was, she would still be prepared for Liu Cong, who is now the emperor.

You, a minister, dare to touch the queen, what are you going to do!
But there is no way. Although Liu Cong grew up in the cultural circle of the Han Dynasty, compared with his father Liu Yuan, the blood and habits of the Huns are heavier than Liu Yuan. At least Liu Cong does not care about this. Nothing more was said.

And Liu Yao has more Xiongnu habits.

Therefore, after Liu Yao took the initiative to send Emperor Huai of Jin, Queen Yang and the Imperial Seal to Pingyang, Liu Cong not only didn't mind Liu Yao accepting the sheep as a gift, but at the same time he was appointed as a general of chariots and cavalry for his merits, and opened the official ceremony. Tongsansi and Yongzhou Mu were granted the title of King of Zhongshan and held prominent positions.

During this process, there was some friction between Liu Yao and Wang Mi.

Because Liu Yao came later, Wang Mi and Hu Yanyan had already taken the lead in capturing Luoyang.

Looking at the Luoyang City that had been plundered, there was no soup left for him. The most important thing was that Liu Tai had offended him, but he had never forgotten it.

So he clashed with Wang Mi and killed Wang Mi's Yamen general Wang Yan, and the soldiers of both sides fought head-on.

Fortunately, Chang Shi Zhang Song was still calm and persuaded Wang Mi:

"The general is serving the Han State and his career is on the rise, but now he has a bad relationship with royal nobles like Liu Yao, and it is difficult to deal with your Majesty.

Even if it was his first achievement to break into the Luoyang General, Liu Yao was a member of the clan and Liu Cong's confidant.

I guess the general doesn’t want to repeat what happened after the two kings conquered Soochow! "

Wang Mi naturally knew what Zhang Song meant. On the surface, he reminded Liu Yao of the identity of the clan. In fact, the current leader has changed. Although the previous leader was wary of you, he was really your backer.

But although the current leader uses you, if you are unlucky, Liu Cong will easily remove you from your post. Do you understand that once you are the emperor, you will always be the courtier?

So Wang Mi finally swallowed his breath and followed Liu Yao to make peace.

But Wang Mi wanted to make peace, and Liu Yao was still very angry.

You just killed some of your men, but what I lost was the first step in attacking Luoyang!

Don’t you know what it means to lead with meritorious service? Just wait a few more days and wait until I arrive before you fight!
Of course, he was still angry in his heart, but Liu Yao also knew that Wang Mi came over to apologize to him. If he didn't make peace, he would not only lose face to Wang Mi, but Liu Cong was afraid that he would also lose some points.

After all, Wang Mi once saved Liu Cong's life, especially his nephew who was particularly good at fighting. In terms of power, he was probably one of the top forces in the Huns and Han Kingdoms.

So when Wang Mi took the initiative to admit his mistake, Liu Yao smiled and said that the matter should be over!
When Wang Mi saw what Liu Yao said, he gave a somewhat tentative suggestion:
"Luoyang is located in the center of the country. The cities and palaces here can be put into use immediately. It is well connected in all directions and is the best place to make the capital of the Xiongnu Han Kingdom. General, why not come forward and suggest that your majesty transfer the capital from Pingyang to Luoyang!"

But when Liu Yao heard this, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart. I don't need your pointing, so he said:
"Now the world is in chaos, and Luoyang is surrounded by enemies. You can't help but see what happened to Jin!"

Not only did he reject Wang Mi, but he also ordered his soldiers to set fire to these palaces and completely burn them down. If he wanted to make Luoyang the capital, he would rebuild everything for me.

When Wang Mi saw this scene, he couldn't help but cursed, "The bumpkins who came out of slaughtering various tribes have no sense at all."

Wang Mi finally understood that the rise of the Huns and Han Dynasty fully relied on Liu Yuan's vision and political skills.

As for Liu Yuan's sons and nephews, it can only be said that they are indeed sons and nephews. Whether they fail to see the importance of Luoyang or they are deliberately disgusting themselves, no matter what, at least Liu Yao did not truly accept his kindness.

Just like this, Wang Mi became angry.

Decisively led the troops who plundered a large amount of Luoyang's wealth and temporarily stationed at Xiangguan.At this time, Wang Mi was actually quite confused and didn't know what he should do next.

Because I have been working hard to overthrow the Jin court, and now that the Jin court has been overthrown, I feel a little empty and confused.

At about this time, the news that Liu Tai defeated Gou Xi reached Wang Mi.

Wang Mi thought that since Liu Tai had conquered Qingzhou, he would just send these treasures to Donglai, and also brought some books to Liu Tai along the way, so he asked Cao Yi to bring these things to Qingzhou.

When Liu Tai heard this, he felt a little enlightened and said to Cao Yi:

"In this case, the general will first send these financial items to the Wang family in Donglai, and also repair the uncle's main house several times.

By the way, now that my uncle has become the Duke of Dongnai County, he has to expand it according to the regulations. When the time comes, I will set up the flowing water mat for a few more days.

Uncle's return home in glorious attire must be lively no matter what! "

Liu Taixu gave Cao Yi instructions one by one, and Cao Yi nodded repeatedly.

I lamented the deep love between Liu Tai and Wang Mi, but think about it, Liu Tai was not only raised by Wang Mi, but also had an engagement with the children of Wang Mi's family, making him completely Wang Mi's son-in-law. It is normal to behave like this.

So Cao Yi bowed to Liu Tai and said, "Please rest assured, Governor, Yi will definitely make arrangements!"

Liu Tai nodded with satisfaction, but left all the matters of welcoming Wang Mi to Cao Yilai.

At this time, Liu Tai had no intention of seizing power from Wang Mi, not to mention that Liu Tai himself didn't care who he worked for, he still wanted to be his own boss.

The most important thing is that between Wang Mi and Liu Tai, whether it is family ties, political interests, or even their respective positions are at least the same for now.

Although he fought in the north and south and defeated Gou Xi, Liu Tai knew very well that his purpose was never to rebel against Wang Mi or to seize power with Wang Mi.

And waiting for the failure of the Sinicization of the Xiongnu Han Kingdom, he would jump out to take over the forces belonging to the Han people.

From this point of view, now that the Xiongnu Han Kingdom has defeated the Western Jin Dynasty, it is the time when the Xiongnu Han Kingdom has entered its peak period, and even made a profit.

Even from the moment Luoyang was conquered, the conflict between Han people and Hu people began to replace the conflict between gentry and common people and gradually became the mainstream conflict of this era, but this will definitely take some time to brew. Liu Tai said that he still needs to wait.

And Liu Tai is only 16 years old. Liu Tai said that he can definitely afford to wait, and time is on his side.

When the conflict breaks out, Wang Mi will be old and weak, and he is afraid that he will have to hand over the resources in his hands to inherit it.

Of course, he excitedly held Wang Mi's hand and licked the bag with tears, and even let the son he had with his daughter adopt to Uncle Wang to pass on the incense.

Anyway, Liu Tai didn't mind, he had already made these plans clear.

So Liu Tai really welcomed Wang Mi to Qingzhou, and even looked forward to it more or less in his heart.

If it weren't for Liu Tai's mentality, Liu Tai would have visited famous people in Qingzhou immediately after capturing Qingzhou to expand his subordinates.

But Liu Tai didn't do anything. Liu Tai just focused all his attention on the military system and planting winter wheat.

Because Liu Tai had no intention of recruiting them from the beginning, because Liu Tai wanted to stay under Wang Mi's wings for a few more years, and wanted to cultivate assistants from the army and school who were completely loyal to him and could pass on his ideas.

In comparison, the celebrities of this era, to be honest, if Liu Tai, a famous scholar in the Han Dynasty, was more or less recognized, but Liu Tai really didn't know how many of the famous celebrities in the Western Jin Dynasty had real talents and learning!
So it would be better for him to continue to develop peacefully and steadily under Wang Mi and continue to lie dormant.

When Chu Hui came here, he actually felt that if Wang Mi came back, would Liu Tai's capture of Taishan County and Qingzhou be handed over to Wang Mi?

This is somewhat difficult to accept for Chu Hui.

Because he finally looked at Liu Tai as if he was seeing Long Zaitian, but he didn't expect that Wang Mi was coming, which had to make Chu Hui anxious.

At this time, Chu Hui watched Cao Yi leave, then came up and said to Liu Tai:

"Since the general sent out troops, he has defeated Yecheng, fought against Wang Kuang, attacked Hongnong, and occupied Mount Tai. Now he has defeated Gou Xi, the leader of the Jin army. He is really the reincarnation of the overlord, and he is extremely heroic.

If the prince comes back, the general may no longer be able to be so unrestrained and will have to live in depression for a long time! "

"You have such bad intentions..." Liu Tai couldn't help complaining in his heart when he saw Chu Hui's words, and he couldn't help but say to Chu Hui,
"Mr. Chu is worrying too much. Now Qingzhou is focusing on farming first, so it's better to put more thought into farming!"

Listening to Liu Tai's vague words of rejection, Chu Hui felt both relieved and troubled.

Chu Hui also knew that if it was official business, Liu Tai would definitely accept his advice.

But now Liu Tai is asked to be wary of his uncle Wang Mi who raised Liu Tai single-handedly. If Liu Tai is persuaded by him and then immediately turns his back and kills Wang Mi, then he will have to worry about what will happen to him in the future. Ended.

But the problem is that, in Chu Hui's view, Liu Tai really trusts Wang Mi too much.

In particular, Liu Tai has always been engaged in military expeditions, and he has always shown his sharpness. He has never thought that military and politics are not the same thing at all.

To use military methods to deal with political problems, or to think that family ties can tie up the fight for political power is to underestimate power, the most insidious poison in the world.

As long as anyone takes power, I am afraid that no one will get even half a cent of the power in their hands.

But Chu Hui also thought that compared with Liu Tai's attitude of almost not cooperating with aristocratic families, it would be different if Wang Mi, who came from a top aristocratic family, was replaced.

Chu Hui felt that the Jin Dynasty had been destroyed, and the Huns and Han had finally won a great victory, so there must be representatives of the interests of the Han people in the Huns and Han.

Obviously, Wang Mi naturally stood out at this time.

"Why don't we, as Liu Tai said, put all our thoughts on farming and wait for Wang Mi to come back first to see if he has the intention of competing with other heroes, or if he can rest assured and serve as a general for the Xiongnu and Han Dynasty? Let’s talk again!” Chu Hui finally sighed.

To be honest, even when Chu Hui was captured by Liu Tai at the beginning, he never expected that the Jin court would be defeated again and again in just a few years, and now it was completely destroyed.

And just when Liu Tai and Chu Hui were waiting for Wang Mi's return with different thoughts.

The news of Wang Mi's death spread to Qingzhou!
