Sweep the World

Chapter 511: : The Death of the Little Court (4)

The national disaster is approaching, the emperor is so young that he is completely ignorant, and no one from the royal clan can stand up. Although Chu is a relative, he cannot be compared with the clan, Chu Suanzi naturally feels infinite sadness in his heart.

It doesn't make sense to say that the small Eastern Jin imperial court is now an orphan and widow in power. It is just because the young Eastern Jin imperial court has never been in power. It is the clans and families that control the country. The situation that caused the country to be governed by the family and the family is the pattern set by the Sima family from the usurpation of the throne from Cao Wei. The reason is that the Sima family needs the support of at least most of the family to successfully usurp the throne, so of course the Sima family should give the family enough. Many benefits.

After going through the "Southward to the South", the strength of the Sima family has basically been completely abolished, and even the family does not want the Sima family to produce any more talents, otherwise the Sima family is really strong, wouldn't it be difficult for the family to be free?

Under decades of tacit understanding, the families can compete and fight, but the Sima family is not allowed to intervene. The only thing they hope is that the Sima family will be a signboard.

If a country does not have centralized power, it may not show the disadvantages of decentralization in peaceful times or encountering weak enemies. Once a war breaks out and encounters a strong enemy, there are too many people in the country that can control the power and the voice cannot be unified. That would be a pretty bad thing.

The Sima family who usurped the throne can not talk about justice. In fact, the establishment of many regimes has nothing to do with justice. The difference is whether they can benefit the people living in this country after they control the power of the country. Obviously, even if the Sima family is seeking welfare, they are also for the family, and the subsequent political affairs are fully controlled by the family.

If Liu Yan is to personally evaluate the country under the rule of the Sima family, it can only be said that since he was born of injustice, he deserves to die out of uselessness or shame.

Xie Ai led troops to Jiankang, and it was a north gate controlled by Yu Yi.

After the Han army approached, it was the first to encounter the Jin army that came to block. From the battle to the victory, the Jin army declared collapse after just a face-to-face meeting, and the Han army caught the retreating Jin army and killed one side. Approaching Jiankang.

From the height of the tower, Yu Yi could see the process of the fighting outside more clearly. The Han army came from cavalry. One round of impact directly caused the Jin army to collapse, and the next moment the Jin army on the city gate fled in all directions. He asked for a moment before he knew that Chu Xin, who was in command of the soldiers, had been captured by Huan Yun, and that the leader of the soldiers was from the Wang clan. The Wang family has no military talents, which is probably a fact that the whole world knows.

The Jin army outside the city collapsed, and the Jin army holding on to the city wall was evacuated amidst various shouts of horror. Yu Yi even found that no Jin army was coming here in the city.

Huan Yun has formally voted for the Han. He is taking a large group of families to vote for the Han. He is currently armed in the city to fight against the armed forces who have chosen to be loyal to the small imperial court. Before Huan Yun and the others had set up a situation to make Jiankang chaotic, the little court tried more than once to regain control of the city gate, either being blocked in the road, or failing to seize it after going.

The Han army, who arrived earlier, resolved that the Jin army stopped about three hundred steps outside the city defense. Xie Ai rode on horseback to watch Jiankang City in the night. Numerous torches were lit on the city tower and nearby walls. Above it was the banner of the Jin Dynasty still flying, making him frowned.

"The master of the Huan family did not succeed in seizing the city gate?" The person Xie Ai asked was called Xi Menshang, who was a protégé of the family of the Huan family. As soon as his voice fell, the flags on the city wall were falling side by side: "Oh..., it seems to be captured."

The banners of the Jin army on the city wall were lowered, untied, and thrown away. The city gates slowly opened amid the friction of "whoops". A group of armed men armed with torches lined up on both sides after going out of the city gate. The two or three trot quickly towards the Han army.

"The villain's name is called Boshen, Naihuan Gongmen." This is a middle-aged man who looks tall and strong. After he was drawn over, he respectfully saluted Xie Ai: "The city gate has been seized by us. In the hands of Gong Yu, please lead your army into the city."

Xie Ai brought only about two thousand cavalry in advance, and the follow-up troops are rushing here, but it will take at least a quarter of an hour to arrive. He himself didn't go directly into the city, he chose a team of one hundred people to check the situation, and waited for the people sent to come back to report.

Jiankang is a huge city, and there are dozens of formal gates in the passages that can enter and exit the city, which means that it is not only formal gates to enter and exit.

There are far more than four official gates. There are three gate towers in the east, west, south, and north. Normally, the three gates only open on the left and right sides, and the army and important people enter and exit in the middle.

In addition to the gates of the four towers, some gates built for etiquette also exist, such as gates specially used by the emperor, some gates used during sacrifices, and so on. Others are small gates that are convenient for getting in and out of firewood, and indispensable are some "non-gate" drains, holes and other passages.

When Yu Yi broke through, the city gate he seized was not an official city gate. The name was Zhanghua Gate, which was used as a gate for some sacrifices to enter and exit.

Xie Ai only saw Yu Yi when he entered the city and went up to the tower. What he saw Yu Yi was wearing casual clothes, and casual clothes are actually casual clothes before going to bed. Most of them are plain and monotonous, and there is no fancy on the style, but it looks very informal, and it can even be said to be a guest. Sometimes I feel embarrassed.

Of course, Yu Yi knew that it was inappropriate to wear it to meet people, but he didn't care about so much. When he saw Xie Ai, he asked: "The general is leading his army this time, don't you know the strength of the troops?"

Xie Ai was wondering why Yu Yi was dressed like this, but when Yu Yi couldn't have so many tubes, it was not an exploration. When asked, he said, "The total number will not be less than 200,000."

"That's good, that's good..." Yu Yi didn't know that the 200,000 units Xie Ai said could only be assembled within a few months. It also depends on whether the war on Xu Zheng's side went smoothly. He said with a very complicated expression: "Jiankang is a big city with a million people."

Xie Ai saluted and said: "I still rely on Yu Gong, Huan Gong and other princes."

Standing on the tower and looking into the city, fires can be seen everywhere in the city, and one after another plumes of smoke are floating towards the sky with little stars.

The Jiankang City chaos is the kind of chaos that hardly has any order. Different camps, families, and armies are selected to fight. The fight takes place in any place, and even bold families gather to attack Miyagi.

Xie Ai did not lead his army into the city. What they had to do was to seize more gates and hold them in their hands so that the following troops could enter the city after they came. Next, he needs to meet those who surrender, and even draw more people for his own use.

The family members and families south of the Yangtze River jumped back. That is because they thought it would be impossible not to jump. The reason is actually quite simple. If the Jin army wins in the Huaishui battle, they know that the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty can still support for a while, but the Huaishui battle is not only a big defeat, or the Han army defeated the use of various conspiracies with upright military force. Means of the Jin army.

The most terrifying thing in the world is being upright and upright. Using a small number of troops and then using a strong posture is the most shocking. It will let people fully understand that the gap between the two sides is definitely not a little bit, it is a trench that is difficult to cross. .

The war between nations is not just a contest of military forces, nor is it a simple contest of national power. The transformation of people's hearts is the key to determining the final outcome. Once most people on one side feel that there is no hope of winning, that group of people will not only disintegrate from the inside, but will also rely on the enemy as a support. The result is that the strong on one side is stronger, and the weak on the other side is naturally weaker.

It is never uncommon for patriarchs and aristocratic families to abandon the country. They can do anything to develop and preserve their family. Not to mention that the Sima family is a signboard and it will not be difficult to sell, but to become a powerful king in the future. The ruling party does not hesitate to sell out.

Jiankang is really a huge city. Later, Huanyun met Xie Ai in person and explained the situation in the city. In general, Jiankang has been divided into large and small battlefields, with the forces standing in the Han country on the outside. Gained the advantage.

"The people welcome the arrival of the king." Huan Yun said that the people participated in the fight, and the people chose to let the Han army occupy Jiankang City. Behind him, he frowned and said: "The more you go inward, the advantage lies in the pseudo-dynasty."

The political pattern of the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was destined to never make it to the people, so they naturally hoped to live under the rule of Han. Once the ruling party is changed to Han, they may not be able to get the benefits for no reason, but at least they have a channel to change their own destiny, unlike the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which determines the height of a lifetime.

"Is the king and Xie clan going to be wrong to the end?" Xie Ai knew something from Huan Yun. Those who resisted with all their might were mainly the Wang clan and Xie clan. He is precisely worried that the family members who have enough prestige and connections lead the crowd to resist resolutely: "This will destroy the entire city."

In fact, Jiankang City looked like it was almost broken now. I don't know how many houses were turned into fires and how many were pushed to ruined walls. In the end, the entire city would really become a huge ruin.

Whether Jiankang City will become ruins or not is not that important in the Han country. Perhaps Liu Yan will care about the number of people killed or injured, but the ministers most care about whether the little emperor can be caught, and the second thing is those who preside over the resistance. How many people can catch.

"Every city gate is still in your hands!" Huan Yun is not without worries: "Wang Xizhi went out of the city before, so beware of the Jin army from the periphery to recapture the city gate."

A continuous defensive belt was built around Jiankang City, no less than 200,000 Jin troops stationed, if Wang Xizhi really led his army to return, it would definitely add variables to this event.

"Our army has launched an offensive." Xie Ai was naturally worried that the Jin army would return to the defense, but he could not show it: "Wang Xizhi must have the courage to give up the front."

The follow-up troops gradually arrived. Xie Ai asked Huan Yun and Yu Yi to coordinate and command. The troops should try to advance to Miyagi at one time. If they can conquer Miyagi in one fell swoop, everything will be over.

Huan Yun naturally did not agree, and coordinated extremely hard.

Yu Yi felt tired, but he didn't refuse Xie Ai's request. After all, things are already like this, so what else?

The sky gradually brightened, but the whole city was filled with smoke. This is definitely not fogging. It is because too many fires are gradually extinguished. When the fire is extinguished, more smoke will be produced. Not only does the vision become blurred, the air is definitely enough to choke people.

The only place where the whole city seemed to be a little calm was Miyagi, but it was only a little, it was the calm before the storm.

The palace complex of Zhangtai pavilion has three steps, one guard, five steps and one post. Most of the guards have no expressions on their faces, but their eyes are uncontrollable looking at the smoke pillars floating in the sky in the distance.

The walls of Miyagi are full of crossbowmen, and even the Eight Horse Crossbows with some heavy equipment are in a wound state. You can see some ladders on the wall, and some corpses under the city. The corpses extend from the foot of the city wall all the way to the outside. It was a family who didn't know what it was, they came to try to attack the city and stay behind.

For some people in the small imperial court, over 30% of the families in Jiankang Mancheng rose up to rebel immediately last night, which undoubtedly opened up the end times belonging to the small imperial court. As the Han army opens, more current affairs will inevitably participate in the rebellion. In the middle, once the commander of the Han army integrates the rebellious clans and families, the end of the world will really come.

Chu Pai had given up on the periphery, dispatched all the forces that could be gathered to the center of the city, and laid out the line of defense with Miyagi as the core. What he can look forward to now is not that the Han army will retreat on its own, nor is it the conscience of those rebellious clans and families, who can only put all hope on Wang Xizhi.

"The head of the country, the figure of the Han army has appeared in Dongcheng." Xun Yu said with some trepidation, "The Han army arrived earlier than Wang Youjun, isn't it..."

Jiankang’s east city is the direction of Dantu, and it is more clear that Sheshan should be captured by the Han army, and Wang Xizhi went out of the city overnight to go to Sheshan.

"For me, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com can only hold on and break through." Chu Pao has been upset for a long time, but he is forcing himself to be calm: "Standing is to wait for reinforcements, and only the arrival of reinforcements can succeed. Break through."

The political system of the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was destined for a long time. The army was in the hands of various clans and noble families. This time it was an open rebellion by the Huan family and the Yu family. The army was split at the beginning, and the biggest battlefield in the city is currently staged fighting in the same room.

"I regret that I shouldn't have moved the capital early!" In this turmoil, Xun Xun's family chose to stand in the camp of the small imperial court, but his younger brother Xun Xian was a close relative of Liu Yan's secretary. He didn't think that his brother could guarantee anything after the failure. He sincerely hopes that the little court can get through the crisis. He also said: "There are nearly 20,000 guards in Miyagi, and nearly 40,000 guards and 340,000 private soldiers assisted. , How about breaking through directly?"

Chu Bao wanted to break through the siege more than anyone, but said in a gloomy tone: "The Huan thief and the Yu thief will join the Han army. They must come with heavy troops. If the Wang Youjun is not there, they can still resist the palace. "

...

Heatstroke, after a day of hanging from a bottle, my head is really dumbfounded.
