Chapter 507

In the face of national disaster, the emperor was young and completely ignorant. No one in the royal clan could stand up. Although the Chu family was a foreign relative, it could not be compared with the door valve. Chu suanzi naturally felt infinite sadness in his heart.

It is unreasonable to say that the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty is now an orphan and widowed mother in power, just because the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty has never been the royal family, but those door lords and aristocratic families are controlling the country. The situation that the Sima family ruled the country by the door lords and aristocratic families was the pattern set by the Sima family when they usurped the throne from the Cao Wei Dynasty. The reason is that the Sima family needs the support of at least most aristocratic families to succeed in usurping the throne, so the Sima family should give the aristocratic family enough advantages.

After "crossing south in clothes", the Sima family's strength has basically been completely abolished. Even the aristocratic family doesn't want any more talents from the Sima family. Otherwise, if the Sima family really wants to be strong, wouldn't it be difficult for all aristocratic families to be free?

With decades of tacit understanding, aristocratic families can compete and fight, but Sima family is not allowed to intervene. Their only hope is that Sima's family can be a sign.

A country has no centralization of power. In times of peace or when it encounters weak enemies, it may not show the disadvantages of decentralization of power. Once there is a war and a strong enemy, there are too many people who can make decisions in the country, so that the voice can not be unified, it will really be a very bad thing.

The Sima family, who usurped the throne and won the country, can't talk about justice. In fact, the establishment of many regimes has nothing to do with justice. The difference is whether they can work for the welfare of people living in the country after mastering the rule of the country. It is obvious that the Sima family even seek welfare for the aristocratic family, and the government behind them is fully controlled by the aristocratic family.

If we want Liu Yan to personally evaluate the country under the Sima family's rule, we can only say that since he was born in injustice, he should die of cowardice or shame.

Xie AI led the troops to Jiankang and came to a north gate controlled by Yu Yi.

After the Han army arrived, it first met the Jin army who came to block it. From the battle to the victory, the Jin army just collapsed face to face. Later, the Han Army caught the retreating Jin army and approached Jiankang while killing.

Yu Yi saw clearly the war process outside from the height of the city tower. The Han army came from cavalry. A round of impact directly collapsed the Jin army. The next moment was the Jin army scattered on the side of the city gate. After asking, he knew that Chu Xin, who was in charge of the army, had been captured by Huan Yun, and that the soldiers were led by Wang's side. The fact that Wang's generation has no talent for military affairs is probably known all over the world.

The Jin army outside the city collapsed. The Jin army guarding the city wall withdrew in panic. Yu Yi even found that there was no Jin army coming here in the city.

Huan Yun has officially joined the Han Dynasty. He joined the Han Dynasty with a large group of aristocratic families. At present, he is fighting with the armed forces who choose to be loyal to the small imperial court in the city. Before that, Huanyun and others had set up a bureau to make Jiankang chaotic. The small imperial court tried to regain control of the city gate more than once, either blocked on the road or failed after going.

When the Han army arrived earlier to solve the Jin army, it stopped about 300 steps outside the city defense. Xie AI rode on his horse and watched Jiankang city in the night. Many torches were lit on the city tower and nearby city walls, but the banners of the Jin room were still flying above the city head, which made him frown.

"Lord Huan didn't succeed in seizing the gate?" The person Xie AI asked was Simon Shang, who was a disciple of the Huan family. As soon as his voice fell, the banners on the wall were falling down side by side: "Oh... It seems to have been captured."

The Jin army banners on the city wall were lowered, untied and thrown away. The city gate was also slowly opened in the friction sound of "Yiya". A team of armed personnel holding torches lined up on both sides when they came out of the city gate cave. Two or three people trotted to the location of the Han army.

"The villain's name is boshe. He's under Duke Huan's door." This is a tall and strong middle-aged man. After being led over, he respectfully saluted Xie AI and said, "the gate has been taken by us. It is in the hands of Yu Gong. Please lead the general into the city."

Xie AI brought only about 2000 cavalry in advance. The follow-up troops are rushing here, but it will take at least a quarter of an hour to arrive. He didn't go directly to the city. He chose a team of 100 people to check the situation and waited for the people sent to come back to report. Only then could he be regarded as unifying the troops into the city.

Jiankang is a huge city. There are dozens of formal gates in and out of the city, that is to say, it is not just formal gates.

There are far more than four formal city gates. There are three city towers in the East, West, South and north directions. Usually, the three city gates are only opened on the left and right sides, with the army and important people in the middle.

In addition to the city gates of the four towers, some city gates established for etiquette also exist, such as the city gates specially used by the emperor, some city gates used during sacrifice, and so on. Others are small doors that are convenient for getting in and out of firewood, and there are some "non door" channels such as gutters and holes.

When Yu Yi broke through the siege, the city gate captured by Yu Yi was not an official city gate. It was called Zhanghua gate. It was used as a city gate for some sacrifices.

Xie AI went into the city and went to the tower to see Yu Yi. Yu Yi he saw was wearing casual clothes, and casual clothes were actually casual clothes before going to bed. Most of them were plain monochrome, and there would be no fancy in the style, that is, they looked very informal, and even felt embarrassed when meeting guests.

Yu Yi certainly knew that it was inappropriate to see people like this, but he didn't care so much. When he saw Xie AI, he asked, "general, I don't know the strength of the army this time?"

Xie AI wondered why Yu Yi was dressed like this, but if Yu Yi couldn't manage so much, it wasn't time to explore. When asked, he said, "the total number will not be less than 200000."

"That's good, that's good..." Yu Yi didn't know that the 200000 troops Xie AI said could be gathered in a few months. He also saw whether the war over Xu Zheng was going well. He said with a very complicated expression, "Jiankang is a big city with a population of one million."

Xie AI saluted and said, "I still rely on Duke Yu, Duke Huan and other princes."

Standing in the city tower and looking into the city, fire can be seen everywhere in the city, and smoke columns one after another float to the starry sky.

The chaos in Jiankang city is a chaos with almost no order. Door lords, aristocratic families and troops from different camps fight. The fighting takes place anywhere, and even courageous aristocratic families gather to attack the palace city.

Xie AI didn't lead the army to go deep into the city. What they had to do was to seize more city gates and hold them in their hands so that subsequent troops could enter the city after they came. Then he needs to meet those who have defected, and even win over more people for his own use.

The gate valve and aristocratic family in the south of the Yangtze River jumped against each other. They thought it was impossible not to jump. The reason is actually quite simple. If the Jin army wins the battle of huaishui, they know that the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty can support it for another period of time, but the battle of huaishui was not only defeated, but also the Han army defeated the Jin army using various conspiracy means with a dignified military momentum.

The most terrible thing in the world is to be upright. Pushing with a small number of troops and a strong posture is the most shocking. It will make people fully understand that the gap between the two sides is definitely not a little, but a trench that is difficult to cross.

The war between countries is not only a contest of military strength, but also a simple contest of national strength. The transformation of people's hearts is the key to the final victory. Once most people on one side feel that they have no hope of winning, those people will not only disintegrate from the inside, but also turn to the enemy as a help. The result is that the strong on one side is stronger, and the weak on the other side is naturally weaker.

It is never unusual for the door lords 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, it will not be difficult to sell. Even if there is a strong king in power in the future, they will not hesitate to sell.

Jiankang is really a huge city. Later, Huan Yun personally met Xie AI and explained the situation in the city. Generally, Jiankang has been divided into large and small battlefields, and the strength of the Han camp has gained an advantage.

"The people welcome the arrival of Master Wang." Huan Yun said that the people participated in the fighting, and the people chose to let the Han Army occupy Jiankang city. Behind him, he frowned and said, "the more inward, the advantage lies in the puppet Dynasty."

The political pattern of the small imperial court in the Eastern Jin Dynasty doomed the people to never emerge, so they naturally wanted to live under the rule of the Han state. Once the ruling party is changed to the Han state, they may not get benefits for no reason, but at least they have a channel to change their destiny. It is not like that the small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was born to determine the height of their life.

"Wang valve and Xie valve are going to be wrong in the end?" Xie AI knew from Huan Yun that those who resisted with all their strength were mainly Wang and Xie. He is precisely worried that the gate valve with enough prestige and contacts leads the people to resolutely resist: "this will destroy the whole city."

In fact, Jiankang city is almost destroyed now. I don't know how many houses have become a fire and how many have been pushed into ruins. That is, will the whole city really become a huge ruins in the end.

Whether Jiankang city will become ruins is not so important in the view of the Han state. Liu Yan may care about the number of people killed and injured, but the ministers most care about whether they can catch the little emperor. The second thing is how many people who preside over the resistance can catch.

"The city gates are still in hand!" Huan Yun was not without worry: "Wang Xizhi went out of the city before. He should be careful to prevent the peripheral Jin army from killing back and seizing the city gate."

A continuous defensive belt has been built around Jiankang City, with no less than 200000 Jin troops stationed. If Wang Xizhi really leads the army back, it must add variables to this event.

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

The follow-up troops gradually arrived. Xie AI asked Huan Yun and Yu Yi to cooperate in command. The troops should try to advance to the palace city at one time. If they can conquer the palace city at one stroke, it will end everything.

Huan Yun naturally agreed and worked very hard to coordinate.

Yu Yi felt tired, but he didn't refuse Xie AI's request. After all, things have been like this. What else can we do?

The sky gradually brightened, but the city was filled with smoke. This is definitely not fogging. Too many fires are gradually extinguished. After the fire is extinguished, more smoke will be generated. Not only the sight becomes blurred, but also the air is absolutely choking.

The only place where the whole city seems a little calm is the palace city, but it is only a little. It can be regarded as the calm before the storm.

The palace buildings in the zhangtai pavilion have three steps, one whistle and five steps, one post. Most guards have no expression on their faces, but their eyes can't help looking at the smoke column floating to the sky in the distance.

The walls of the palace city are full of bowmen, and the eight horse crossbow with some heavy equipment is also in the state of stringing. It can be seen that there are some ladders on the wall and some corpses under the city. The corpses extend from the foot of the city wall to the outside. They are left by unscrupulous aristocratic families who bring people to try to attack the city.

For some people in the small imperial court, more than 30% of the aristocratic families in Jiankang city immediately rebelled last night, which undoubtedly opened the end of the small imperial court. With the opening of the Han Army, more people with knowledge of current affairs will participate in the rebellion. Once the commander of the Han Army integrates the rebellious door valves and aristocratic families, the end will really come.

Chu Li had given up the periphery, dispatched all the troops that could be gathered to the center of the city, and arranged the defense line with the palace city as the core. What he can look forward to now is not the withdrawal of the Han Army by himself, nor the Conscience Discovery of those rebellious door lords and aristocratic families. He can only put all his hope on Wang Xizhi.

"Guozhang, the Han Army has appeared in Dongcheng." Xun Rui said more or less in fear: "the Han army arrived earlier than the king's right army, didn't it..."

Jiankang's east city is the direction of Dantu. To be more clear, it is that the shooting mountain should be conquered by the Han Army, and Wang Xizhi went out of the city last night to shoot the mountain.

"For us, we have to stick to and break through." In fact, Chu Li was upset for a long time, but forced himself to be calm: "defending is to wait for reinforcements. Only when reinforcements arrive can he break through successfully."

The political system of the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty has long been doomed. The army is in the hands of various door lords and aristocratic families. This time, the Huan family and Yu family are openly rebelling, and many aristocratic families are attached to it. 100000 garrison troops were split at the beginning. At present, the biggest battlefield in the city is fighting in the same room.

"I regret moving the capital early!" Xun Rui's family chose to stand in the camp of the small imperial court in this turmoil, while his brother Xun Xian was a close relative Secretary Lang of Liu Yan. He didn't think what his brother could guarantee after the defeat. He really hoped that the small imperial court could survive the crisis. He said, "there are nearly 20000 guards in the palace city, nearly 40000 garrison troops and 30000 or 40000 private soldiers of aristocratic families to help. Why don't you break through directly?"

Chu Li wanted to break through the encirclement more than anyone, but he said very depressed: "Huan thief and Yu thief, together with the Han Army, must be heavy troops. If the Wang Youjun is not here, he can still defend the palace city. I'm afraid the breakthrough is a sheep into the tiger's mouth."

Heatstroke, bottle hanging for a day, my head is really confused.
