As mentioned before, during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, there was a huge gap between the aristocracy and the common people. After Hou Jing's Rebellion, the people from all over the south took advantage of the chaos and followed Hou Jing to kill the aristocratic families in Jiangnan to pieces.
Only then did ordinary people have the opportunity to get ahead in the Southern Dynasties, but once the opportunity was available, it was still extremely difficult for ordinary people to get ahead because the common people lacked inheritance.
In the world of China, famous ministers and generals who are famous in history have their own way of passing down the inheritance.
As for ordinary people, it is difficult to obtain even the most common body-building techniques, let alone transform themselves step by step and become strong.
Not just ordinary people.
Those generals who have mastered Gang Qi, after cultivating their ancestral skills to the limit, are in incomparable suffering if they want to go further.
And now.
Wang Jing gave these generals an opportunity. As long as they made meritorious deeds, they could obtain a higher inheritance method and change their own destiny.
Wang Sengbian believed that as long as this news spread, the entire Huai Army generals would become more loyal to King Huai, and the military morale would be extremely united. With such momentum, sending troops to conquer would increase the chance of victory by three points.
…
When Wang Jing summoned the generals in Shouchun.
Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Ke and his son fled all the way over the mountains and ridges, and they didn't know how far they escaped.
When they stopped, they saw only a mountain peak towering in the far distance ahead, and a vast expanse of blue waves that could not be seen to the edge.
Zhuge Jin looked a little haggard and regained his energy. Then he jumped up to a high place and looked forward. What he saw was the boundless blue waves. The water surface was sparkling, but there was not much wind and waves.
"This is Chaohu..."
Zhuge Jin suddenly realized where they had fled to.
When Zhuge Ke heard this, he quickly jumped up and looked.
The father and son fled in panic, climbing mountains and wading all the way, and actually ran for more than a thousand miles, all the way to the border of Lujiang River, and even crossed Hefei to the edge of Chaohu Lake.
"I remember that there were rebels such as Zhong Xiang and Zheng Bao near Chaohu, as well as generals from other dynasties, and the situation was quite chaotic... Unfortunately, there are no dangerous fortresses from here to Shouchun, so it cannot become a foundation place!"
Zhuge Ke felt a little pity.
The father and son walked around the edge of Chaohu Lake and set off towards the west.
Regardless of whether Hefei could become a foundation place, they still wanted to take a look, take a shower, change clothes, and tidy up their appearance.
After walking hundreds of miles.
Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Ke's expressions changed as they heard the faint sound of fighting in the distance.
The two people immediately flew into the sky and approached the direction where the sound came from.
Soon, a battlefield in the wilderness appeared in front of their eyes.
In the wilderness, about five hundred cavalry were attacking thousands of disheveled soldiers. The leader of this cavalry looked a bit young, and his armor and decorations looked very familiar to the father and son.
This man galloped on his horse, his long spear was as long as lightning, and while shouting, he rushed into the chaos and stabbed the enemy's head to death.
"Seventh level general..."
Zhuge Jin and his son have strong spiritual power and extremely high life levels, and they can see the approximate strength of the other party.
Zhuge Ke looked at the flag fluttering in the wind among the cavalry, with the word "Thank you" embroidered on it.
Wait until this cavalry has taken thousands of rebel soldiers into custody.
"Father, I see that this cavalry is dressed in a Jiangdong style, and their flag is embroidered with the word "Thank you". It is very likely that it is related to the Xie family of Chen County. We might as well go up and talk to them and ask them a few questions."
Zhuge Ke said.
Zhuge Jin pondered slightly, but did not object. Between father and son, Zhuge Ke often made the decision and Zhuge Jin provided opinions. It's the same today.
"who?"
As soon as the two of them got closer, the cavalry commander who had just been riding his horse and holding his spear glanced over and rode towards them.
"This little brother, may I ask, is he a descendant of the Xie family in Chen County? I am Zhuge Jin..."
Zhuge Jin announced his family status.
Upon hearing this, the cavalry commander's expression changed. He looked at Zhuge Jin and his son carefully, then quickly got off his horse and stepped forward to salute respectfully. He looked like a noble man.
"It turns out they are Marquis Wanling and Marquis Yangdu, junior Xie Yan, and brother Xie Xuan are nearby at this time..."
Xie Xuan?
Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Ke looked at each other and could see the shock in each other's eyes. Unexpectedly, Xie Xuan, the famous general who defeated Fu Jian of the former Qin Dynasty with tens of thousands of elite troops, was here.
It's really unexpected.
If Wang Jing were here, he would also be shocked. Xie Xuan was able to suppress Liu Laozhi, the top general in history. According to numerical calculations, his command was at least ninety-five.
The internal affairs are also quite good, which can be said to be both civil and military.
He suddenly appeared near Chaohu and Hefei with his troops. He must have wanted to seize this territory... Xie Yan was not an unknown person. He was Xie An's second son and served as a general under Xie Xuan.
When Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Ke followed Xie Yan back to the camp, the father and son made some insidious inquiries and found out a lot of useful information.
For example, Xie An and Xie Xuan have arrived and both serve under Jin Ming Emperor Sima Shao.
The Eastern Jin Dynasty was located in Ningguo and Chizhou in the south of the Yangtze River. It was adjacent to Pengze on the west side, that is, on the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and on the lower reaches of Jinling Zhu Yuanzhang.
Sima Shao didn't want to fight Zhu Yuanzhang head-on, but he couldn't. In addition, the area is surrounded by mountains and rivers, making it difficult to accumulate food and grass.
So while Zhu Yuanzhang was fighting with Liu Yu, he crossed the Yangtze River and captured the Lujiang River, and reclaimed farmland around Chaohu Lake to supply the army in the south.
At this time, Xie Xuan led his troops to the north and was mopping up the large and small forces around Chao Lake, recruiting surrenders and rebels. He had already captured Chaoxian, Wuwei, Lujiang, Shuxian and other places.
The land of Hefei had just been conquered by Xie Xuan's troops.
As for the thieves and bandits Zhuge Ke mentioned, such as Zhong Xiang and Zheng Bao, the rebels of various dynasties were all put down by Xie Xuan.
"It's better to defect to Sima Shao first and temporarily settle down in the Jin army..."
Zhuge Ke's eyes flashed, thoughts floating in his mind.
Jin Ming Emperor Sima Shao was a rare wise king in the Jin Dynasty, much more powerful than Sima Yan and Sima Rui. Although Sima Yan established the Jin Dynasty, he chose a fool as the prince, which was an indelible stain.
Sima Rui was controlled by Wang Dao and his brothers, and his authority did not leave the palace. Sima Shao was able to resolve Wang Dun's rebellion and check and balance the powerful ministers' family. He was considered a rare clear-headed monarch.
It's a pity that he died young.
In the world of China, all the monarchs of the Eastern Jin Dynasty have arrived, and the Sima family recommended Sima Shao to take power. Even Sima Rui, who founded the Eastern Jin Dynasty, retreated to the second line.
The Eastern Jin Dynasty was very friendly to famous families.
Zhuge Jin and his son were born in the Zhuge family of Langya. Especially after Zhuge Liang became Marquis of Wu and was highly respected by the Jin Dynasty monarchs and ministers who built temples to worship them, the Zhuge family became a famous family in the world.
Zhuge Jin is Zhuge Liang's eldest brother and an important minister of Soochow. Sima Shao must be ecstatic to defect to the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
As for Zhuge Ke, he can only be regarded as Zhuge Jin's addition.
Zhuge Ke didn't care what Sima Shao and others thought. His ambition had been aroused in his heart, and he joined the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which was just a temporary settlement.
