It was not difficult.

Each member of the Hulin Army carried a hard wooden stick, which was originally a spare long spear handle in the baggage, but now they were using it urgently.

The cavalry covered each other, three people in a group, two people covering one person, and inserted the wooden stick into the wheel of the chariot while running quickly. Many chariots that were as fierce as a fortress suddenly stagnated, either the wheel was damaged or one wheel was stuck. The warhorse continued to run, but in the end, the chariot turned into a millstone spinning in place.

Whether it was the domestic slaves on the chariot who were originally raised for fun and had no actual combat experience, or Liu Kui who commanded this war but actually had little experience, they all began to panic.

Liu Kui did not expect the chariot phalanx to completely crush the army of the Great Zhou, but he did hope that the chariot could have a certain impact on the Great Zhou, preferably a small victory, so that this battle could have a victorious start, so as to boost the morale of his side.

But unexpectedly, this trick did not play the expected role, but was quickly cracked by the enemy.

The Hulin army broke through the chariot formation, and the knights tore a hole in the heavy shield soldiers' defense line. Wang Mi immediately pressed forward with the entire central army.

The Jin army was defeated step by step.

In the end, Liu Wei had no choice but to retreat to the city.

This time, Sima Rui and Wang Dao could no longer sit still.

Sima Rui gritted his teeth and decided to lead the army in person.

He felt that the other side was so powerful because Guo Xi, who was used to winning people's hearts, led the army in person, which greatly boosted the morale of the Zhou soldiers and generals, and they defeated his Jin army so easily.

But Wang Dao disagreed.

Of course he would not agree.

Sima Rui was a qualified emperor. He came all the way from a vassal. He was smart and studious since he was a child, which was very consistent with his name "Rui", but it did not mean that he was an emperor who understood military affairs.

This emperor has always relied on his generals to fight, not himself. Although the Zhou Emperor has always been heard to be good at internal affairs and good at identifying and employing people, from the apprentices he trained and from his extremely rare experience of leading troops, it can be seen that Guo Xi is a hero of the time, and ordinary excellence cannot surpass him.

Therefore, in Wang Dao's view, it is understandable that the Zhou Emperor led the army in person, but Sima Rui cannot.

Sima Rui was persuaded by Wang Dao for a long time and finally gave up this idea, but he immediately sent Wang Dao to the front line.

This is not that Sima Rui does not trust his own Liu Wei, but Wang Dao asked for it on his own and Sima Rui agreed.

For Emperor Sima Rui, it would be better if Wang Dao could take the initiative to leave the center of the court, and he could also take advantage of the time when he was away to sort out the government affairs. As for what Wang Dao should do after he gains military merit, becomes more famous, and has made greater contributions in the future, Sima Rui has temporarily stopped considering it. Even if Wang Dao does not make any contributions, he is still the first person in the court, and there is not much difference between them.

It is so ironic that Sima Rui is on guard against Wang Dao, but he is very confident that under Wang Dao's leadership, his army will not be defeated. Because this is the most solid impression left on Sima Rui since he was a teenager, when Wang Dao and his student Sima Rui got along day after day.

Sima Rui held a banquet to send his mentor to the battlefield, and no one could guess what he was thinking. However, Wang Dao, who took the initiative to ask for battle, was not as confident as Sima Rui.

Although the Zhou Kingdom was established for a short time, its strength should not be underestimated, and there were many talented generals. Even if he had the best army in Jin, it was difficult to assert that he could win. In addition, the army was not like the court, where everyone listened to him as the prime minister, and the human harmony factor was reduced by three points.

However, Wang Dao is indeed a rare talent in the Wang family of Langya. Even though his reputation for marching and fighting is not obvious, he is no worse than his brother Wang Dun. After taking over the front-line army, he at least stabilized the long-term decline and confronted the Zhou army again.

After nearly half a month, both sides were a little impatient. Time gradually turned from late autumn to early winter, and the temperature became lower and lower. Just when Wang Dao thought that Zhou would withdraw its troops soon.

Jiankang fell!

Wang Dun officially raised the banner of rebellion.

The world was in an uproar.

At this time, no matter how much Wang Dao said that he was loyal to the emperor and patriotic, it was useless for him to know nothing about Wang Dun's actions. Everyone felt that the two brothers of the Wang family played a drama of internal and external cooperation. First, Wang Dun asked to go out as an official and had the opportunity to form his own army. Then Wang Dao took advantage of the Zhou invasion to seize the supreme power of leading the army. Finally, Wang Dun went straight to the capital Jiankang. At this moment, Wang Dao had withdrawn Jiankang and almost only an empty city was left.

Wang Dun didn't have the heart to think so much. His move was just to force Wang Dao to completely turn to the Wang family. So in order to make his good brother make up his mind, Wang Dun did not show any mercy when he attacked Jiankang Palace and slaughtered Sima Rui and his bloodline.

In his opinion, now that the situation has become like this, Wang Dao should gather the army in his hands and then work closely with him, whether it is to support a puppet emperor or simply to establish himself as a king like Guo Xi, so that his Wang family will no longer be a family of nobility, but will eventually become a royal family.

And now the choice is in Wang Dao's hands.

Wang Dun can even imagine how sad and entangled his brother should be.

However, what Wang Dun, or everyone else, did not expect was that Wang Dao could not completely control this army.

For example, Liu Kui, although he was deprived of his position as commander-in-chief due to the unfavorable war situation, as Sima Rui's confidant, he still stayed in the army and served as a military supervisor.

Liu Kui's loyalty to Sima Rui was beyond doubt, so in his opinion, Wang was their enemy!

Revenge for the king is natural.

He found several like-minded generals, led his confidants and soldiers to launch a mutiny, attacked the general's tent, and completed the task of "killing the chief culprit" in a panic. Even when Wang Dao's confidants arrived, the brilliant and powerful head of the Langya Wang family had been hacked to death by someone, and his face was bloody and his expression could not be seen clearly.

When Liu Kui and others wanted to gather the remaining troops, withdraw to Jiankang, and rescue the emperor, they found that the news of Sima Rui's death had spread throughout the military camp, and even the ordinary people in the city seemed to have known the news.

Because of this news, those people in the military camp no longer had the heart to fight. The current situation was that the royal bloodline was completely gone. Even if there were still many Sima clan members living outside, those clan members were not recognized. In this way, it was a foregone conclusion that the Guo clan would unify the world.

In this case, why were they fighting to the death here?

At this time, Liu Wei and his men happened to announce that they had dealt with Wang Dao and were ready to take over the army. As a result, the fake army mutiny became real. Before the night fell that day, half of the low-ranking generals ran away, and at least one-third of the soldiers were deserters. This was because some soldiers were slow to get the news. I guess most of them wanted to leave after the night.

Whether Liu Wei and others distributed food and wages to appease the people, severely punished deserters to make an example of them, or promoted officials and coerced and lured them, they could not stop the collapse of the Jin army.

It seems that most of the people in the city of Peihou State fled overnight, and some even left their belongings behind. They packed up their belongings and went straight to Yanzhou with their families. Yanzhou, which had been turbulent and exploited countless times, is now implementing various preferential policies to attract refugees. They have long wanted to move there.

At this time, the Zhou Dynasty seemed to have not received any news, and did not take advantage of the situation, but maintained a quiet confrontation.

Finally, Liu Kui, who looked dead, finally reacted: "The Zhou State is waiting to receive the surrendered people."

Yes, now that the Sima family is dead, the Zhou State has not even spent a lot of power to win the victory in this battle for the world.

Liu Kui regretted it at this moment.

Although the Wang family was not loyal, they were one of the aristocratic families after all. If they did not move Wang Dao, but cooperated with Wang Dao and Wang Dun, the power in the south would not change much, and the political situation would also be stable, and they would still have a chance to compete with the Zhou State. But he was so angry that he wanted to avenge his majesty and killed Wang Dao completely. Then the possibility of cooperating with Wang Dun was completely cut off.

The 200,000 troops of the Jin Dynasty were scattered, and it was impossible to rely on Wang Dun's 100,000 troops to defend Jiankang.

Liu Kui understood that these people were equivalent to handing over his country to the Guo family. │This│work│by│Think│Tu│online│read│read│netizen│organized│upload│

That night, Liu Kui committed suicide in the big tent. The several generals who had gathered together were in a dilemma and acquiesced to the choice of surrendering to the Zhou Kingdom.

They had never received much favor and favor from Sima Rui, so naturally they could not be as loyal as Liu Kui.

In this world, who does it matter?

Half a month later, the entire territory of Xuzhou north of the Yangtze River and half of Yangzhou were taken over by the Zhou Kingdom.

Under the general trend, all counties surrendered and the camp changed rapidly.

Wang Dun originally defended Jiankang, but was not only besieged by the army, but also the city was not peaceful. His killing of Sima was too bad. Not only did he kill the emperor, but he also slaughtered the royal bloodline and cut off his descendants. This practice was too cruel, which made Wang Dun unpopular in Jiankang.

So Wang Dun made a prompt decision and fled back to Jingzhou with his troops.

In the deep winter of the third year of An Ning, Jiankang was conquered and occupied by the Zhou Kingdom.

The Jin Dynasty officially declared its demise.

In the spring of the following year, You Hongyin announced the relocation of the capital. According to the territory, Luoyang was remote after all. He hastily established the country in Luoyang, but some corresponding buildings, ceremonial guards, etc. were not built. The ministers all understood that the capital would be moved sooner or later, but no one expected it to be so soon.

Even if You Hongyin estimated the smoothness of this southern expedition according to the most optimistic time, it would take one to two years. Who knew that the Langya Wang family, which supported Sima Rui, the southern court, would have a figure like Wang Dun.

After moving the capital, You Hongyin began to vigorously rectify the southern counties. The most important thing was to build roads first, and then allow the northern people who had left their homes to return to the north.

You Hongyin was not worried that the gentry would continue to grow after returning to the north. The land trading system of the Zhou Dynasty was very strict. If the amount exceeded a certain amount, various reports were required. In addition, the large amount of land that the gentry once owned had been "beaten by the local tyrants". They wanted to go back and continue to live a life of using countless fields and tenants. That was a dream.

Now it seems that because of the war, the north is easier to govern. The local government has absolute say in the local area. At the same time, the land has returned to the hands of the people because of the war, and there is basically no problem of annexation.

In You Hongyin's estimation, there might be wars of separatism, sieges, etc. in the south, but who knew it would turn out like this in the end, so the aristocratic families in various places were completely preserved. They occupied a large amount of land and tenants, and their power in the local area was deeply rooted and difficult to pull out.

In the face of such a request, it is useless to rely solely on limiting the land area. No system can be perfect, and there are always many loopholes to exploit, so You Hongyin did not force the aristocratic families to spit out the land in their hands.

Even if the world is unified, some things cannot be handled.

However, this situation does not have much impact at least for now.

Only when the population is prosperous and land annexation is more serious, the people do not have enough land to feed themselves and can no longer survive, then this problem will affect the rule of a regime, and at this moment, the world is in constant war and the population is sharply reduced. Basically, it will take a long time to consider this problem.

In response to this, You Hongyin said that it was his son's concern, and he should build the framework first, and don't think too much about other problems.

In fact, the most direct way to weaken the influence of the gentry or landlord class on the country is to make the land worthless.
