The so-called wise man must have a mistake if he worries a lot. Xie an feels that he was invited, and he agreed to the invitation before he began to go north. He really doesn't know that he was detained... Huh? Or abducted. Before he left, he sent one of his entourage back to inform Yu Bing and his family.
As for Xie an's official position, how can he leave without consent? The small ~ Dynasty ~ court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty is the court of the door lords and aristocratic families. Although Sima family is a royal family, it is a signboard. When the door lords and aristocratic families give Sima royal family face, they are the royal family. If they don't give face, they are puppets.
Of course, this kind of thing is not only popular in the Han Dynasty, but also popular in the Cao Wei Dynasty. Can't it be done in Sima 1 jin dynasty? Scholars and poets also regarded it as a great thing to hang the seal, and greatly praised those who hung the seal, such as Chen Gong, Guan Yu and others.
Yes, the Xie family entourage who returned to the South Bank of the Yangtze River also took xie'an's official seal, so xie'an resigned and resigned righteously, because in his opinion, the official was dispensable and could not be compared with the teaching of the family's children. Only when he caught the good opportunity to resign would he leave directly when Jichang sent an invitation instead of Liu Yan.
Xie an's entourage sent back said that I wanted to go to the north, but the Han Army directly said that Xie an had been detained. Two different messages did not prevent the children of aristocratic families on the South Bank of the Yangtze River from thinking. A storm was brewing.
When the Han Army captured the Jiangdu, it was almost accessible to the Jiangshui temple within Hangou. The facts also proved that the Jiangshui temple could not protect itself after losing the Jiangdu. The defenders of the Jiangshui Temple abandoned the city after learning that the Jiangdu was lost, so that the Han army got the Jiangshui temple without a shot.
The two coastal fortresses on the North Bank of the Yangtze River were easily taken by the Han Army, indicating that the small ~ Dynasty ~ court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was destined to be neighbors with the Han ministry from that moment on.
People on the side of the small ~ Dynasty ~ court in the Eastern Jin Dynasty don't matter what it is to be a neighbor with the Han Dynasty, at least Jichang, sang Yu and LV Tai along the Yangtze River. They acted according to the established strategy. The capture of the two river defense fortresses was only a prelude. Then LV Taihui led his army to attack cities and land everywhere and sweep across the counties of Shijie Zhao on the North Bank of the Yangtze River.
"There is no movement on the other side?" Ji Chang didn't know whether to be happy or wonder: "are they just watching?"
There's nothing wrong. The Jin army on the other side watched the Han Army attacking cities and land, not only because the Jiankang center did not allow the Jin army to set foot on the North Bank of the Yangtze River, but also because the Jin army generals along the Yangtze River were stunned by the strong long-range attack means of the Han army.
The Han Army has strong infantry and more seemingly huge water troops. Unlike Shijie, Zhao guokong has huge infantry and lacks water troops. All generals, including Yu brothers, feel that they should be cautious.
At present, the small ~ Dynasty ~ court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty does not have the strength of the northern expedition. They have prepared for seven or eight years. They have only gathered an army of less than 70000. People are gathered together, but the number of armour and equipment, including grain, fodder and baggage, has not been enough. Otherwise, they should go north to take a share when the Xuzhou army of the state of Zhao in Shijie was annihilated by the Han army.
The troops are insufficient, and it is difficult to support the northern expedition with supplies. What can we do if we don't stare? Fighting an uncertain war will not be the option of Chinese civilization. When you have the right to choose, the military habit of Chinese civilization will take action only after you are fully prepared.
"Then let's not provoke the small ~ court." Ji Chang spoke to Sang Yu: "send people to contact aristocratic families in the south. They will be interested in cheap salt."
"They are more interested in ships that can sail in the sea." Sang Yu said with a teasing look on his face, "is it to cooperate with the Yu family as planned, or...?"
Ji Chang was silent for a while and said with a smile, "we have eliminated many old ships."
Sang Yu nodded, "I see."
It's not that ships can't be sold to the South Bank of the Yangtze River in the Han Dynasty, but it depends on who they are sold to. The Yu family is still the first gate on the South Bank of the Yangtze River. The friendship between the Han Dynasty and the Yu family can greatly affect the political trend of the small ~ Dynasty ~ court in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. In addition, the Han Dynasty also needs to carry out necessary development on the South Bank of the Yangtze River, such as opening up business routes. Cooperation with the Yu family will be a good start.
Not everything can be imitated. It requires very mature reverse engineering technology. In terms of current knowledge and technology, it doesn't look like the future days ~ Dynasty. Everything can be disassembled and assembled. What can the Yu family do even if they get a HNA ship?
What if the Yu family mastered the construction technology of HNA ships? Ji Chang listened to what Liu Yan said personally. In terms of ship construction with conventional strength, the Han ministry received a large number of craftsmen from Shi Hu. In addition, with the Han Ministry's own technical reserves, as long as the appropriate wood is enough, there will be no shortage of ships. In terms of unconventional forces, Ji Chang's confidence in Liu Yan is even more sufficient than Liu Yan himself. It is the expectation of countless warships every minute.
In other words, Ji Chang is right. The difference is that it takes Liu Yan every minute to "summon" a warship, but it takes Keng dad a month. As long as the coastline allows, Lingshan island and Miaodao islands are docks, which is just dense. However, a month can "summon" a warship. The means are already very rebellious, aren't they?
In the age when Liu Yan did not get involved, the small ~ court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty finally seized the opportunity to seize Southern Xuzhou, including the Jiangdu and Jiangshui temple, and even hit the Huaiyin line with dense water network. On the Central Plains front line, the prominent part of the Jin army even attacked near Henan, captured Nanyang County, and attacked Xiangcheng County, an important town of Zhao state in Shijie. On the contrary, the offensive on the first line of Runan was frustrated.
That happened in the next few years. The Northern Expedition faction (Hawks) led by the Yu family still achieved their goal. The price was the overall decline of the Yu family. It was sold by the Huan family led by the close ally Huan Wen. In addition, the Wang family and Xie family mended their knives. A number of aristocratic families fell into the well and turned Yu into a second rate aristocratic family after a brilliant moment.
It was a rhythm that a powerful and powerful family had to die. Huan and Xie followed the Yu family. Wang had been Yu's example before.
So, in some ways, it was Liu Yan who "saved" the Yu family. It was a brief pull, but the Yu family was absolutely unhappy.
Ji Chang didn't take the initiative to contact the Yu family. He came to the door by crossing the river in a single boat behind Yu Yi.
"Are you going to take me away, too?" Yu Yi is only 38 years old. There is no problem claiming to be an old man in his status, but doing so in front of Ji Chang is purely venting his anger: "how can you do this again and again!"
"Let's talk about how to coexist peacefully in the future?" Ji Chang had a sincere smile on his face. He even prepared a rich banquet. Even the actors, Meiji and dancers of the aristocratic family south of the Yangtze River greeted a lot: "for example, selling sea ships to the Yu family?"
Those beauties were sent to Ji Chang by local giants in the south of Xuzhou. The number was very large. Ji Chang could change a new face one night if he wanted to within six months.
Yu Yi's chest was stuffy and he couldn't open his mouth to any accusations. For the Yu family and even the whole small ~ Dynasty ~ court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the most important thing at present is the sea boat, and everything else can be put aside for the time being.
"We want twenty of each style!" Yu Yi's eyes are a little red. May it be lack of sleep or instant brain congestion? He pointed to the Han Army ships on the river: "all styles!"
Jichang is specially arranged on the tower where the Yangtze River waterway can be seen in Jiangdu. The terrain is a little high, which can definitely have a panoramic view of the Han Army's water stronghold.
The Jiangdu fortress has changed hands again and again. What kind of layout it is is is no secret to the small ~ Dynasty ~ court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. There is absolutely no need to cover it up. Then Ji Chang intended to let Yu Yi see the powerful Han Army fleet. In terms of quantity, volume, style and so on, the number of Eastern Jin Navy stationed on the other side was much more.
Of course, the number of boats and ships of the water army of the Eastern Jin Dynasty is certainly more than that of the Han Army, but for the whole water army of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the number of ships of the Han Army around Jiangdu is more than that of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. That was because the Han army was able to concentrate on a whole Yangtze River that the water army of the Eastern Jin Dynasty needed to defend.
"As long as you can provide what we want, even a hundred of each style will be fine!" Ji Chang called that forthright, not only his expression and voice, but also his posture. He shook hands and said boldly, "my family has two states, soon three states, and even the whole of Liaodong. What's the point of some ships!"
Yu Yi didn't believe Ji Chang's boast. Shi Hu was frantically preparing for the war. Seeing that millions of troops were attacking Qingzhou, Liu Yan was about to face a great disaster. That's why the Xiaochao court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty thought it was no big deal that the North Bank of the Yangtze River in Yangzhou was occupied by the Han army.
The original thing! It is now a matter of how many troops Liu Yan can invest along the Yangtze River. Won't Liu Yan send his troops back when Shijie Zhao army goes straight to Qingzhou? It means that the Han army is now sweeping to serve the small ~ imperial ~ court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Waiting for the withdrawal of the Han Army, the Jin army will easily attack the territory that would otherwise consume huge materials.
Yu Yi narrowed his eyes, did not hide his desire, and asked hoarsely, "what does Duke Liu want?"
Ji Chang smiled. It was a burst of "ha ha" laughter, which made him play vocal music and asked the dancers to jump up.
Amid all the rage, Ji Chang took a long time to say, "Yu's daughter has just grown up?", He said with a smile, "Yu, Huan, Xie, Wang, and even Sima are OK!"
"Ah?"
Yu Yi is confused
