The war situation in various places is currently in a stalemate.

The Tang State had already captured two states of the Jin State and had gained a lot, but its progress seemed to stop there.

In the Jin Kingdom, not only did various localities raise rebels to resist the Tang Dynasty's attack, even Shang Tianhong, before joining forces with Chen Qingzhi to go to Jinyang City to attack Sima Kong, assembled an army of 200,000 to stop the Tang army's invasion.

.

After getting rid of Sima Kong, he planned to turn around, clean up the old mountains and rivers, and drive out the Tang army.

But in this case, Wei Jun's help is still indispensable.

Outside the city of Donglai County, Wei State.

Zhao Changqing dispatched 100,000 troops and horses, came to Chu Hong's camp and shouted curses.

Unexpectedly, this Chu Hong was a dead pig and was not afraid of boiling water. He shouted to the Wei Emperor from a distance: "Zhao Changqing, don't use your words to provoke me. Since this general can attack here, sooner or later he will attack Chang'an."

Go, capture you, cramp you, skin you, and feed your flesh and blood to the wild boar!"

Although the words sounded excessive, Zhao Changqing was not angry at all.

He said to Jia Xu beside him: "It seems that this Chu Hong is a little anxious. I'm afraid he never dreamed that this time the Wei army would be led by me personally, and he would move so fast."

Seeing that His Majesty was not angered by these words, Jia Xu felt relieved. He bowed and said: "Your Majesty, Chu Hong cannot leave the camp at the moment. I think it is better to take this opportunity to send a light cavalry to harass the enemy."

, not for the purpose of killing the enemy, but to retreat immediately after attacking the enemy camp, and then send a force to attack the camp at midnight tonight, Your Majesty, what do you think?"

Zhao Changqing thought for a while and said, "Are you talking about the strategy of weakening the enemy, so you are setting up a suspicious situation?"

Jia Xu said: "Exactly."

His idea was that if Chu Hong stayed in the camp and refused to leave the camp in the face of His Majesty's provocations and abuses, he was timid and did not dare to compete with His Majesty. If he sent people to attack the camp at this time, he would deliberately defeat him.

, will definitely increase his arrogance, so that he will relax his vigilance towards His Majesty. At midnight, when he sends a large army to attack the camp, he will definitely win a big victory.

Zhao Changqing was convinced and agreed with what Jia Xu said.

After sending a general to attack the camp without success, he went to attack the camp at midnight that night.

Chu Hong really didn't expect it.

He thought that the Wei army had already attacked the camp once during the day, and had suffered some hardships, so it would have a better memory. However, he did not expect that they would attack the camp again so soon, and even while there was no moonlight.

dark night.

After a chaotic battle, both sides won and lost, but overall, the losses of the Chu army were greater.

Chu Hong had a shadow on Zhao Changqing and did not dare to confront him face to face.

Although he is arrogant, he will not be arrogant to the point of being arrogant.

After he returned to Chu State last year, he has been studying the tactics Zhao Changqing has used against the enemy in recent years.

Finally discovered the terrifying extent of Zhao Changqing's use of troops. This emperor of Wei was good at using surprise troops, and was extremely skilled in lightning attack tactics and city siege and defense tactics. Such an all-around handsome man, in this world

Rarely seen in.

After understanding the horror of Zhao Changqing's use of troops, he no longer dared to look down upon him. He had been imagining that if he led an army to confront him in the future, how would this battle be fought?

I didn't expect that the fantasy would become reality so quickly.

It's really sad.

After a series of battles, the Emperor of Wei was indeed labeled by the world's military strategists as a "good at using strange weapons". He was simply hard to guard against, and he was far from being able to fight alone.

Therefore, to be on the safe side, he decided to fight steadily, not to use troops rashly, but to defend himself against the enemy in a defensive manner.

During the confrontation between the two armies, the Emperor of Chu came down with an order, saying that he was ordering Chu Hong to immediately move his troops northward to help the Chu army that had just arrived in the Changliu Mountains delay the advance of Bai Qi's army.

Chu Hong refused to accept the imperial edict on the grounds that the general's military orders abroad were not accepted.

There is no other reason. The war has reached this point. How can I withdraw my troops?

Either he dies or Zhao Changqing dies!

Therefore, it is impossible to retreat.

What's more, Marshal Xiang Yan is dead. What's the point of dispatching troops to the Changliu Mountains at this time? At present, in the entire Chu State, except for those old guys who can't walk, who can replace Xiang Yan?

The position of marshal?

If he cannot be replaced, then the army will fall into a leaderless situation. At that time, if it fights Wei, it will probably still be defeated.

Therefore, it is better to capture Qingzhou and fight all the way to Chang'an. This can also provide a glimmer of hope for the current Chu State and itself.

Probably a few days later, Zhao Changqing received the news that Sima Kong had committed suicide.

On the day Jinyang City was captured, Chen Qingzhi did not want to kill Sima Kong.

Because he wanted to keep him as a check on Shang Tianhong and his party.

But Sima Kong seemed to have guessed what Chen Qingzhi was thinking, and decided to act in a way that would rather be broken than destroyed.

A generation of heroes committed suicide just like this.

It's really sad.

A few hours before his death, he also announced to the world that Emperor Jin was deposed. He asked his ministers to make him emperor and change the name of the country to "Xin".

The capital was located in Jinyang City, which was about to be conquered by Chen Qingzhi and others, and the name was changed to "Tianfeng". The enthronement ceremony was kept simple. After the enthronement ceremony was held for Sima Kong, the ministers fled for their lives.

But Sima Kong just didn't go anywhere.

He sat on his dragon chair.

What I was thinking was that if he could be the emperor for an hour, he would also be an emperor!

He locked the young master of Jin in a palace and did nothing to him.

The matter has come to this point, no matter how you deal with Young Master Jin, you can't change the outcome of failure. In this case, it is better to let this poor child live, just think of it as your last trace of mercy during his lifetime!

In this way, Sima Kong created the shortest dynasty in history.

After Chen Qingzhi captured the temporary palace in Jinyang City, he met Sima Kong in Jinluan Hall.

He said: "Are you Sima Kong?"

Sima Kong said: "I won't change my name when I'm walking, and I won't change my surname when I sit down."

Chen Qingzhi smiled and said, "You alone dare to proclaim yourself emperor?"

Sima Kong was furious and sneered: "Why can't I? Ask the people of Jinyang. When I was still the new king, I proposed the policy of returning the land to the country, and evenly distributed the land to the common people for farming. No high-ranking officials were allowed.

The dignitaries wantonly oppressed the people. I have really done a lot in the past few months. At least, under my rule, the people of Jinyang City have no worries about food and clothing...

Alas, that’s all, why are I telling you this? If it hadn’t been for Shang Tianhong, if there hadn’t been the back-up plan arranged by the late emperor, if there hadn’t been your Wei State, I believe that I would have been a good emperor!”

Chen Qingzhi shook his head, this Sima Kong really wanted to be emperor and wanted to go crazy!

Does he think that by doing these things that can produce political achievements, he can become a good emperor?

He is still far away!

Chen Qingzhi said: "I can give you a chance, a chance to be crowned king and prime minister. As long as you obey the orders of Wei from now on, I guarantee that you will still be the new king of Jin and the irreplaceable prince."

, enjoy glory and wealth for the rest of your life.”

Unexpectedly, this Sima Kong spat at Chen Qingzhi, and then laughed at him loudly: "You want me to be a traitor? I tell you, don't even think about it! I don't love any regime or court, but I love this country deeply.

Fang Di Di! Let me be a traitor to the people of Jin? Let me do it in the next life!"

Then I saw him pick up an unsheathed long sword, put it on his neck, and said with a big smile: "I have been the emperor for an hour at least. It's worth it in this life!"

Chen Qingzhi just wanted to stop him, but it was too late. Sima Kong had already cut his neck and committed suicide!

Seeing this, he could only helplessly shake his head.

If Sima Kong had helped, the Wei State might have been able to handle the affairs of the Jin State with twice the result with half the effort.

But fortunately, according to His Majesty's original plan, Sima Kong did need to die, and it did not affect His Majesty's plan.

Chen Qingzhi ordered those around him to give Sima Kong a grand burial.

After all, he can be considered an emperor.

At this time, a close aide reported to Chen Qingzhi that people from Shang Tianhong were preparing to enter the palace.

Chen Qingzhi immediately issued an order to his army: "No one is allowed to enter this palace until the young master of Jin is found!"

This means that he wants to temporarily shut out Shang Tianhong because he wants to find the Young Emperor of Jin first and strike first.

At this moment, no one understood Chen Qingzhi's thoughts better than Shang Tianhong, so when he saw that his army was blocked by the Wei army in front of the palace gate of Jinyang City, he was so angry that he actually commanded the army in a hurry.

A conflict broke out with the Wei army.

After Chen Qingzhi learned about this letter, he ordered his troops to defend it.

Less than half an hour later, Chen Qingzhi found the Young Emperor of Jin. He was locked up in a palace. He was wearing a python robe instead of a dragon robe. The Young Emperor of Jin was deposed by Sima Kong, but he was wearing a python robe.

It makes sense.

He looked at the young emperor of Jin and said with a smile: "Emperor of Jin, don't be afraid, we are the generals of Wei, and we are here to save you from danger. From now on, no one from Jin can threaten your throne!"

The Young Emperor of Jin didn't know whether he was pretending to be stupid or something, but it was a little strange. He seemed to have been frightened. After Chen Qingzhi announced his family status, his tears kept falling, and then he picked up his sleeve to wipe them away.
