In the Eastern Jin Dynasty, he lived in Kuaiji and Shining Mountain.
Xie Xuan's brows were furrowed, and he sat opposite Wang Gong, twisting a sunspot in his hand, but he couldn't put it down. Wang Gong raised his head and sighed softly: "Youdu, what are you doing?
What's wrong? It's not like you at all to be so restless today."
Xie Xuan raised his head and frowned deeply: "We didn't expect that Fu Jian's revenge would come so quickly. We thought that he would suffer a disastrous defeat in Junchuan and would have to wait at least two or three years before he could start his army. Unexpectedly, in less than two months, he actually
You can play the trick of drawing one out of ten in China, and what is even more unexpected is that within ten months, millions of troops have been recruited from all over the country."
"Now he made Murong Chui the commander, commanding the 250,000 troops in Jingzhou as the vanguard, and the 50,000 tiger and wolf troops of Liang Cheng, the former governor of Jingzhou, as the vanguard of the other route, went straight to the Huaihe River. Fu Rong then
As the general manager of the march along the Huai River Road, he led an army of 300,000 to follow. Fu Jian himself led more than 100,000 Di troops recruited from Guanzhong, marched out of the pass with drums and marched straight to Xiangcheng."
"According to reports from frontline scouts, the Qin army's march was thousands of miles long. The troops from Youzhou and Yunzhou had just gathered, and the troops from Ganliang in Longyou had just passed Tongguan. Wherever the armies passed, the earth shook and the mountains moved.
Shake, even the fish in the river were frightened and jumped onto the river bank."
"What's even more annoying is that Fu Jian actually arranged official positions in the court in advance. He vacated the post of Shangshu Ling, saying that it was for the Holy Emperor, and vacated the post of Zuopushe, saying that it was for the Xianggong.
My lord, you are so arrogant and arrogant that it makes people angry!"
As he spoke, he slapped the black stone on the chessboard with hatred, causing all the stones on the board to jump slightly.
Wang Gong's expression changed slightly. After all, he was not a general and could not see these frontline reports. Only after seeing Xie Xuan did he realize how serious the matter was. He also put down the chess piece in his hand and said in a deep voice: "No wonder you want to pull
Come here with me, but my husband asked for illness and returned here after the Battle of Junchuan. You are the nephew of the Xie family, and it is normal to come here for advice, so why did you drag me along?"
Xie Xuan looked at Wang Gong and said calmly: "Because, at this time, we need not only the power of your husband, but also you need to move among the noble families for us. This time it is a real national crisis.
There can't be any internal fighting or involvement, otherwise if we really can't stop the Qin army this time, we will be completely ruined. If the Jin Dynasty dies, how can we, aristocratic families, survive alone?"
Wang Gong sighed: "Actually, since the last battle of Junchuan, many rumors that are unfavorable to your Xie family have been circulating in Jiankang City. Among them, there is one person in particular who is desperately trying to spread these rumors. You
Do you know who it is?"
Xie Xuan nodded: "Is it Wang Guobao's family? Or is it the Yu family?"
Wang Gong shook his head: "No, it's not them. Everyone in the high-ranking families in the capital knows about the grievances between your Wang Xie families. If they came forward, many people would only listen and not choose sides.
But if the Yin family comes forward, it will be different."
Xie Xuan's expression changed: "Yin family? Are you talking about Yin Zhongkan?"
Wang Gong nodded and said seriously: "Exactly. The Yin family has always been the leader of the literary world. They do not use power to suppress others, but they have very high opinions among the gentry. Yin Zhongkan's uncle Yin Hao was also as famous as Huan Wen.
, was also a person who was in power. Although he fell into some decline after Yin Hao failed in the Northern Expedition and was dismissed from office, the cousins Yin Zhongkan, Yin Zhongwen, and their other cousin Yin Qiao are all famous for their literary talents.
, no family dares to underestimate them."
Xie Xuan murmured: "So that's it. No wonder after the great victory in Junchuan, Mr. Xianggong temporarily declared himself ill and went home. I didn't go to the capital this time. I looked for you directly at the entrance of the capital. I just didn't know the movements of the capital. They
Why did you say bad things about my Xie family?"
Wang Gong sighed: "Although the Yin family did not come to see me, I heard their rumors. They said that your Xie family is now planning to abandon these established families and instead use cold men like Liu Laozhi and Liu Yu to lead the army.
You have started a new one, and you are even more prepared to destroy the unwritten rules of taking turns in power and sharing power among aristocratic families. You said that you left Zhenbei Mansion at a young age just to form a vassal town like Jingzhou in order to control the military power for a long time."
Xie Xuan said excitedly: "That's nonsense! Our Xie family is dedicated to serving the country and working hard, how could it become the wrong idea in their mouths! The surname Yin is just a scholar, how could he have such an idea? Who is it?
I’m teaching him to say this!”
Xie An's voice sounded slowly but with great authority from one side: "Of course it was the Huan family who asked him to say this. Youdu, how many times have I told you that you must be calm when things happen. You are like this
, how can you lead an army to be a commander and fight against the bandits?!"
Xie Xuan and Wang Gong's expressions changed at the same time, and they quickly knelt down to Xie An who appeared from behind the screen: "Join me, Sir!"
Xie An's expression was still calm and calm, showing no emotion or joy. With Xie Daoyun's support, he walked in front of the two of them and sat down on a couch beside the chessboard. He looked at Wang Gong and smiled slightly: "
Thank you to the Wang family for their strong support to us this time, and I hope this friendship can continue."
Wang Gong raised his head and smiled slightly: "Junior and Youdu have known each other for many years. I know that the Xie family is dedicated to the country, so they made such a choice. However, sir, you also know the situation in Jiankang. More than half of the high-ranking families
Now that we have persuaded Yin Zhongkan and others, now that a powerful enemy is coming at this time, you must make preparations in advance."
Xie An smiled slightly and waved his hand: "There is nothing to prepare. I came to Shining Mountain Residence not to avoid rumors, but to find a quiet place to think about how to fight this war. Youdu.
, have you thought about how to fight this battle?"
Xie Xuan gritted his teeth, straightened his body, and said seriously: "This time Fu Jian is here to fight for his life. My nephew originally thought that he could mobilize the army from the Central Plains and Qilu at most, with an army of three to four hundred thousand to seize the two Huaihe Rivers."
As the target, I didn't expect that he would actually draw one out of ten and use the millions of troops in the country to completely destroy our Eastern Jin Dynasty. The enemy's momentum is extremely strong at the moment, and Fu Jian is even going to conquer it personally. In this case, it is impossible
To defeat the enemy, I think the best strategy is to abandon the two Huaihe Rivers, stick to the Yangtze River line, and rely on the natural dangers of the river to block the Qin army's millions of troops!"
Xie An sighed and looked at Xie Xuan calmly: "Youdu, if I do as you say, our country, Jin Dynasty, will definitely perish!"
