"What Mr. Xiao said is true. I've just recorded this matter. But what we are discussing right now is how to deal with the Ming army. We can discuss other matters later!"
Wang Jing said slowly.
It has to be said that Xiao Daocheng took the initiative to persuade him to join, which made him a little shocked, but he quickly realized that the other party was using this method to dispel his fear of his identity as the great ancestor of the Southern Qi Dynasty.
If he becomes the first person to persuade him to join.
No matter what happens in the future, Wang Jing will give him face and reduce the chance of attacking him.
After all, Xiao Daocheng's stature was low enough, and he was the first to come to persuade him as the leader of Southern Qi. If something happened to him in the future, Wang Jing's reputation would be affected to some extent.
After understanding the other party's plan, Wang Jing calmed down.
Su Wei hesitated and wanted to follow up.
But when he heard Wang Jing's words, he could only stop, gritting his teeth at Xiao Daocheng in his heart, secretly hating that the other party had taken away the credit that was so easy for him.
Subsequently. Wang Jinghe and the people in the hall didn't say much.
After all, how to deal with the Ming army is a very important matter. If there is a strategic deduction for the Ming Dynasty, important ministers such as Gao Xi, Xie Hui and Bu Zhi will inevitably participate in it.
And in Changzhou. Wang Jing was only accompanied by Su Wei and Hu Zongxian.
These two people neither have the ability to conduct strategic deductions for a dynasty, nor do they have sufficient status in the Huai army.
It was obvious that Wang Jing just wanted to listen to their ideas and did not really want to implement their opinions.
But Su Wei said it was not bad.
At present, Zhu Yuanzhang had just pacified the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the army was in urgent need of rest and reorganization. Before sending troops to attack the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Ming army had only had a truce with Liu Song for a short time, and the military front was already blunt.
Wang Jing's Huai army also expanded to its limit after taking down three forces in a row.
If we continue to send troops regardless of the limit of our endurance, the millions of Huai army will be defeated.
Neither side has the confidence to fight for the time being.
Therefore, He Ruobi in Danyang and Fu Youde in Jingkou would at most confront Xu Da and Li Wenzhong, and no large-scale fighting would occur.
After the proceedings.
Wang Jing began to give orders, preparing to go to Jiangyin to stay temporarily, and then return to Yangzhou on the five-tooth ship.
The three places have been captured, and the remaining tasks are to calm down the chaos in the cities and sort out the internal affairs. These matters do not require Wang Jing to personally take charge.
He wanted to return to Yangzhou and summon the central officials and important officials from various places to discuss the next direction of the Huai army.
When Wang Jing was preparing to leave Changzhou.
Xiao Daocheng's persuasion began to spread quickly.
In particular, many generals of the Huai Army, as well as officials at all levels who followed King Huai south, were very concerned about this matter.
The story spread from ten to ten, and almost all high-status officials in Jiangnan, from Gao Xi and Fu Youde to thousands of households in the army, had heard about it. The higher their status, the clearer they knew.
Naturally.
Then came the memorials flying like snowflakes. All civil and military officials with status, including the heads of aristocratic families in Soochow, whether active or passive, willing or forced, have written a form of persuasion to join.
Because this is a very important political event.
Wang Jing replied: "Whether he agrees to proclaim himself emperor or not, let's talk about it separately. Everyone else has written a form of persuasion, but you haven't. So do you have any objections to King Huai?" Are you preparing to betray the Huai army?
Wang Jing would not read through so many memorials, but anyone who had not written them would definitely be paid close attention to by spies from the Military Intelligence Department.
This matter cannot be concealed.
Rapid transfer from top to bottom.
By the time Wang Jing arrived in Jiangyin, many people in Jiangyin City had heard about it.
During this process.
It was indispensable that the civil and military officials of the Huai Army had a tacit understanding of pushing the situation. The spies from the Military Intelligence Department not only did not stop it, but also gave it a fierce push.
…
In Jiangyin City.
The blood on the city head has not been cleaned up yet. This is the remnant from when Chen Qingzhi defended the city against Liu Song's army.
I heard that both sides relied on the city to fight fiercely. Chen Qingzhi was somewhat unable to stand up against Liu Yu. It was not that Chen Qingzhi was too weak, but that Liu Yu was too strong.
Fortunately, Jiangyin is the temporary capital of Southern Qi, and there are two ninth-order people, Xiao Daocheng and Chu Yuan, in the city.
They also put in a lot of effort and were able to barely block Liu Yu's rapid offensive.
"If Duke Xiao hadn't taken action, I would have failed to live up to the king's expectations and would have been unable to defend this strong city..."
Inside the Jiangyin Palace.
When Chen Qing came to visit him before, he was still a little frightened when he talked about the battle not long ago. He was almost about to be attacked by Liu Yu and his reputation was ruined.
After Wang Jing arrived in Jiangyin, he first summoned Chen Qingzhi.
The other party was ordered to do so in a critical situation. Although he defected on the way south, with the merit of holding Jiangyin, he would be able to gain a firm foothold in the Huai Army and even be directly canonized as a general with no title.
"I will certainly remember Xiao Daocheng's contribution, but I will never forget your contribution!"
Wang Jing smiled.
After the great victory in the Southern Expedition, large-scale rewards were inevitable.
A large number of generals in the army, as well as many officials who followed them south, will quickly rise to power and become the backbone of the Huai Army.
For example, Chen Qingzhi, Wang Jing was ready to confer him the title of General Wuwei, give him a lot of resources, and first train a special force of 6,000 white-robed soldiers.
This attack on Soochow and Liu Song was mostly a surprise attack from behind, and the white-eared soldiers and white-horse cavalry brought from the south were not used.
But wait until we face the Ming army later.
These extremely elite special units will definitely play a great role.
When I was in Jiangyin City. In addition to comforting generals like Chen Qingzhi who had made great achievements, Wang Jing also summoned many civil and military personnel from the Southern Qi Dynasty.
When summoning these people, Wang Jing's attitude was very gentle and comforting.
This made many civil and military personnel who had just joined the Huai army feel much less nervous.
In this.
Chu Yuan played a big role.
Regarding the original founding prime minister of Southern Qi, Wang Jing pondered for a long time and prepared to promote him and let him serve as a military officer in the Jiangnan Marching Governor's Office and still handle the government affairs in Southern Qi.
Wait until the three places are stable.
The temporary organization of the Jiangnan Marching Governor's Office will be abolished.
The land of Dongwu, Liusong, and Southern Qi will also be divided into provinces and prefectures and counties.
At that time, Chu Yuan can directly become the chief envoy of a certain province.
Unlike Li Shanchang, Hu Weiyong, Gao Xi and others, Chu Yuan followed Xiao Daocheng and surrendered the land of Southern Qi, which was no less than the destruction of the country.
It's okay to destroy other people's countries, but destroying your own country... this merit doesn't sound good.
However, Wang Jing only looked at the facts. The Huai army made Nan Qi surrender without a single blow, and also gave Soochow a fatal blow through Nan Qi... For these achievements, Xiao Daocheng could only sit back and enjoy wealth and honor due to his status, and would not be able to accept it.
So the credit goes to Chu Yuan... This is one of the reasons why Xiao Daocheng took Chu Yuan to Changzhou to meet him.
These achievements, in addition to getting Xiao Daocheng a title, were more than enough to send Chu Yuan to the position of provincial chief envoy.
And Chu Yuan also has the ability to become the chief envoy.
Wang Jing's short time in Jiangyin. In addition to urging the troops to move in, various military intelligence reports were also sent to various places in the south.
Especially the direction of Jiaxing and Eastern Jin Dynasty. When Wang Jing summoned the civil and military officials of Southern Qi and comforted the generals, he was always paying attention.
This day.
The military information from Jiaxing and the Eastern Jin Dynasty was finally delivered.
What Wang Jing first picked up was the military information in the direction of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. After the destruction of the three major forces, the Ming Dynasty became the Huai Army's primary enemy.
Especially Zhu Yuanzhang, the spies of the Military Intelligence Department paid close attention to his every move.
And Zhu Yuanzhang also has Jin Yiwei under his command.
Both sides attach great importance to the intelligence of powerful enemies, and spies from the Military Intelligence Department and Jinyiwei have collided and fought countless times in secret.
On the surface, the two armies are facing each other. In the secret, there are also these spies who are risking their lives to gather information, just to provide accurate judgments to their monarch.
"Xuancheng has been destroyed...Emperor Sima Shao of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, as well as Sima Rui, Wang Dao, and Tao Kan of the Sima clan...were all captured! The main force of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was defeated, and the counties and counties were in chaos..."
Wang Jing looked at the information about the Eastern Jin Dynasty and shook his head slightly.
When the city is destroyed and the country is destroyed, there should be one or two famous ministers and generals who died, right? Feelings: The Eastern Jin Dynasty defended the city, and in the end, none of the monarch, prime minister, and generals died?
"It's a pity...Sima Yi didn't show up in Xuancheng!"
If Sima Yi were around, the Sima clan of the Eastern Jin Dynasty would definitely be liquidated by Zhu Yuanzhang.
After all, the monarchs, civil and military officials after the Three Kingdoms era all knew that Sima Yi was cunning and cunning, and would definitely kill this guy first if given the chance.
But Sima Yi belongs to the Western Jin Dynasty. With his own abilities and the bonus of his reputation, he has also stepped onto the threshold of heaven.
If he doesn't show up at this time, no one can attack him.
When he comes, relying on the strength of the heavenly realm, as long as he does not establish power and defect to other monarchs, it is still possible to enjoy wealth and honor incognito.
Because his reputation is really bad.
Whether it is becoming a monarch or defecting to others, it is impossible to succeed. In the world of China, power and wealth are destined to be insulated from Sima Yi.
Perhaps this is a backlash against what he did in history.
But if Sima Yi doesn’t show up.
The Sima family of the Eastern Jin Dynasty has a high chance of surviving in the hands of Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang was ruthless towards his courtiers and would make up his mind as long as his power was threatened, but he was also willing to be lenient to those who were not a threat.
For example, in history, Chen Youliang's son Chen Li and Ming Xia's Ming Sheng were both made marquises after their surrender.
The two kept complaining in private, but Zhu Yuanzhang did not kill him, but sent the two families directly to North Korea.
The two families received courtesy in North Korea and flourished, and the family lasted longer than Zhu Yuanzhang's descendants...
On the opposite side of the two families is Prince Xiao Ming...
He had threatened Lao Zhu's power, so he was drowned.
As for Sima Shao and Sima Rui, their reputations are not bad and their ambitions are not that strong. As long as they can be honest, Zhu Yuanzhang will not do anything to them.
As for Director Wang...
Wang Jing felt that the Langya Wang family was going to suffer this time.
Director Wang is known as a gentleman, but he sat back and watched his brother Wang Dun rebel, which shows that his heart is not pure... Such a family is so entangled in the Eastern Jin Dynasty that it cannot lose its tail.
If he were an ordinary monarch, he might endure such a situation and entrust Director Wang with important responsibilities to appease the Wang family.
But this time they met Zhu Yuanzhang...
Again.
Zhu Yuanzhang can tolerate people who are not a threat to him, but as long as they threaten his full strength, he has touched his reverse scale.
No matter how powerful the Langya Wang family was in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Lao Zhu will never have any scruples and will definitely kill them.
Eliminate all the Wang family's influence and use the most violent means to clean up all parts of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. This is also to confront the Huai Army and deal with hidden dangers in the rear in advance.
Except these.
Among the information returned by the spies, there are also the movements of aristocratic families from various places in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
In some places, wealthy families segregated cities and took advantage of the situation to seize power in a county.
Wang Jing could tell at a glance what the wealthy families in these places were planning. They wanted to make an exchange with the Ming army. As soon as the Ming army arrived, they would open the city gates to welcome them in exchange for the Ming army recognizing their local status.
If the Ming army agrees, then in the future, the magistrates of Ming Dynasty will control half of this county, and the other half will fall into their hands. The towns and villages outside the city will also become their sphere of influence.
This is the so-called imperial power not going to the countryside.
Zhu Yuanzhang may agree or not... Wang Jing didn't pay much attention to it.
Because in Wang Jing's heart, as long as he is ready, he will use the power of thunder to completely defeat the Ming army just like he led millions of people southward this time.
Whether the imperial power of the Ming army can go to the countryside is not important to the Huai army.
When these cities and lands fall into the hands of the Huai Army, they will naturally follow the rules of the Huai Army.
At that time, if these local wealthy families dare to do this, Wang Jing will definitely send a large army to negotiate the rules with these local wealthy families, just like he sent Tang Shengzong, Zhang Hao and others to sweep the newly captured cities and countryside...
There are also some aristocratic families, with their clansmen and the remaining family soldiers, fleeing towards the southeast.
Just like the aristocratic families of Liu Song Dynasty.
They were preparing to avoid Wang Jing and Zhu Yuanzhang, two monarchs who were very unfriendly to the family, and move to Hangzhou in the Southern Song Dynasty.
"He's going to Hangzhou again! He can escape for a while, but he can't escape forever! Sooner or later, these people will regret it!"
Wang Jing snorted coldly when he saw this.
No matter who wins or loses between him and Zhu Yuanzhang, the Southern Song Dynasty is bound to become their next target.
By then, unless these migrating aristocratic families continue to move south, they will fall into their hands sooner or later.
Compared with these aristocratic families who fled towards the Southern Song Dynasty.
Liu Muzhi. Liu Laozhi, a civil and military pair, took the Liu clan, some elites, and a lot of food and grass, and disappeared after leaving Danyang.
After He Ruobi entered Danyang, he sent many people to pursue it.
It was only certain that they did not go to the Southern Song Dynasty like other wealthy families.
With the protection of Liu Muzhi, a ninth-level top scribe, and Liu Laozhi, a famous general, he could rely on the formation to use the technique to hide a small number of troops.
Without a ninth-level expert to pursue them personally, it would be difficult to find their traces.
Coupled with the threats from Xu Da and Li Wenzhong.
After He Ruobi reported the incident, he decisively withdrew his pursuit personnel and focused all his attention on the Ming army.
"In the Southern Song Dynasty, without Yue Fei, it was just a fish belly. We can solve it whenever we want!"
"Han Shizhong, who was regarded as a pillar of the Southern Song Dynasty at this time, was not as powerful as imagined!"
Wang Jing saw the information about the direction of Jiaxing sent by the spies. Secret passage.
