Fu Rong said bitterly: "No, King of Heaven, it won't be like this. Xie An and Xie Xuan can control these soldiers. Then Liu Laozhi has been the general of the Xie family for many years. If he doesn't listen to others, Xie Xuan

If you say that, he will not disobey. Xie Xuan allowed them to kill prisoners and gain merit, just to win over people's hearts, rather than being unable to control them!"

Murong Chui laughed: "Mr. Yang Ping, you have to know that the Xie family is not the only one in the court. There are many people who are eyeing their family's position. The reason why they went out of the town to form Beifu troops was because the emperor was suspicious of them.

, let King Sima Daozi of Kuaiji serve as the prime minister, and share with him the power of the prime minister of Xie An. I heard that before the Beifu soldiers were dispatched this time, the Xie family specially held a meeting in black clothes in Guangling City, in order to bring together the high-ranking families of the major families.

Take a stand, take a stand, something big will happen at this meeting."

Fu Jian's spirit perked up: "What's the big deal? Why didn't I know about it?"

Murong Chui smiled slightly: "When Wei Chen led the troops in Jingzhou a while ago, he thought about the possibility of moving to Jianghuai in one big move, so he sent a large number of agents to Jiangling, Guangling, Jiankang and other places to inquire. Jiangling is where Huan is?

The territory of the family is well-defended and impeccable. The high-ranking family in Jiankang City are panicking, but something unexpected happened in Guangling. I heard that the direct descendant of the Taiyuan Wang family, the current Shangshu Zuopushe Wang Guobao's younger brother, Wang

Chen, he went to the Xie family's black-clothed party and made trouble, which was almost out of control!"

Fu Jian nodded thoughtfully: "Wang Guobao? Is he the guy that Sima Daozi brought to contain the Xie family? Isn't he Xie An's son-in-law? How dare he openly oppose his father-in-law?"

Yao Chang smiled and said: "Xie An only has one phase. Since this man is willing to go out and help the Sima family deal with his father-in-law, he has already been mentally prepared for this. Once such a ruthless and unjust villain becomes shameless, he will

It bites people harder than anyone else. The general's spies also heard the same news, so Wang Chen took the opportunity to attack, using the excuse that Xie Xuan favored those Jianghuai refugees, and directly took away nearly one-third of the high-ranking families.

Disciple, the Xie family’s party in black clothes has done a disgraceful job.”

"And afterwards, I heard that even people from the Tianshi Dao came to interfere and were forced into the Beifu Army. They opposed Xie Xuan's people everywhere and almost ruined the big thing. As soon as this battle was over, Xie Xuan

Finding excuses to drive these Taoist priests out of the army is enough to show that Jiangdong is not monolithic, but has internal discord, suspicion between the emperor and his ministers, and serious conflicts!"

Fu Rong sneered and said: "These are just your random thoughts. At least in the face of foreign enemies, Jiangdong's monarchs and ministers are still united. This time the battle of Junchuan is the best proof. Wang Guobao did not deduct military rations from the soldiers in front. No

Missed the war!"

Murong Chui smiled slightly: "That's because the old thief Xie An personally took charge of Jiankang and took over the power. A while ago, in order to avoid suspicion, he resigned directly and went into seclusion, but in order to ensure that his nephew won the battle, he came back and took charge again.

Because he has been the prime minister for many years and has many disciples and old officials in the court, Sima Yao has no choice but to let him become the prime minister again. But the more this happens, the more it shows that the Xie family has monopolized power and even the emperor cannot control it.

If you resign, you can resign, if you want to come back, if you regard the imperial power as a plaything, which emperor would not be afraid of it?"

Fu Rong said coldly: "You said one thousand, but you said ten thousand. Now that Xie An is in charge, Jiangdong means the unity of the monarch and his ministers, that is, everyone is of one mind. The refugee commanders in front may not belong to each other, but they all obey Xie Xuan's orders. They are not

They are not the foreign tribe of the Yao clan, and there is no possibility of rebelling against the Jin and joining the Qin Dynasty. Xie Xuan has given them military merit this time, and will also give them corresponding rewards in the future. These people will only become more determined to fight on the ground. Our army is newly defeated.

, people are in panic, and it is not a good time to go on an expedition at this time."

Having said this, Fu Rong looked at Fu Jian: "King of Heaven, I know that you intend to dominate the world, but now is really not the time. After all, our army has occupied Xiangyang this time. If we use this as an advance base, Xu Tu Jiangling, once

The way to destroy Jin is to capture Jingzhou and then go down the river, advancing both by water and land!"

Murong Chui shook his head: "Jingzhou is the private territory of the Huan family. They have sufficient troops and tight defenses. It cannot be easily captured. After we captured Xiangyang, it is not that we did not want to take advantage of the situation to advance again, but Huan Chong's 100,000-strong army has been

Guarding the line of Dangyang and Ma Tou, our army failed to succeed in several attacks, so we had to withdraw. Moreover, we left the Nanyang Basin and marched towards Jiangling. The roads are so muddy that our cavalry cannot display its strengths and is no longer useful!"

Fu Rong raised his brows disdainfully: "We can't use troops in Jingzhou, so how can we go to Lianghuai? Lianghuai is the plain land in the north, where can we use cavalry?"

Murong Chui smiled slightly: "It's difficult this time. Although Peng Chao was defeated, it also proved one thing, that is, in the land of Lianghuai, cavalry can rush back and forth, not the water town of Jiangnan. Moreover, our army can't reach San'a."

There has been no disease, and the acclimatization can be overcome. The northern troops have always been afraid of going south because, first, the cavalry cannot be used, and second, the epidemic makes the army unable to fight. Since neither of these is a problem, what else can be done?

worried?"

Fu Rong said coldly: "But there are tens of thousands of Beifu soldiers in front of us who are good at fighting. They destroyed Peng Chao's 80,000 army. They are not easy to mess with. If our army really wants to destroy Jin, we must raise a large army!"

"

Murong Chui immediately said: "What Yang Pinggong said is absolutely true. King Tian, ​​if we want to destroy Jin, we must really show our determination and raise a large army!"

Fu Rong's eyes widened and he said sternly: "Murong Chui, you are so ambitious and have repeatedly encouraged the king of heaven to raise an army. What is your intention?!"

Murong Chui said calmly: "It's just a plan for the country, it has no purpose. The 20,000-strong troops cannot defeat the tens of thousands of Beifu soldiers, so the king might as well send 200,000 to see if they can still take advantage of this!"

Fu Rong laughed angrily: "Hahahaha, 200,000! A battlefield between Huaihe River and Huaihe River costs 200,000, and Jingzhou costs at least 200,000. Does our Qin Dynasty have to send every male to fight? It was the Jin Dynasty back then.

To destroy Soochow, we will need an army of 300,000 to 400,000 people. The strength of the Eastern Jin Dynasty is much stronger than that of Soochow back then. Do you want your Murong family to be the vanguard?"

Murong Chui smiled slightly: "This is serving the country. It is a supreme honor. If the King of Heaven gives the order, I, Murong Chui, will be willing to make all the men in my family serve on the battlefield, except for my youngest son who will guard the house!"

Yao Chang also followed up and said: "The last general is also willing to serve the country!"

Fu Jian could see that he was a little moved. He gritted his teeth, glanced at Fu Rong who was furious, and said in a deep voice: "That's the end of the discussion today. Let's retreat first. Duke Yang Ping will come to Liangyi Hall and we can continue the discussion!"
