Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 5036 Leaving Chigu City

From the previous appointment and Lu Bu's words, Sima Yi could feel that Lu Bu trusted him. With the emperor's trust, Sima Yi was full of confidence. The most unsatisfactory thing was that he was injured in Chigu City.

Influenced him to return to Chang'an.

After leaving Sima Yi's residence, Artaban explained something in a low voice and left calmly.

Sima Yi's reminder put Aldaban on alert, and even Sima Yi discovered his secret actions, which meant that the actions of the person he secretly instigated had already been known to the emperor of Jin.

Ordinarily, the situation in Chigucheng is so complicated that it must be difficult to accurately detect the news. I didn't expect that the people of Jin State would have such means.

In fact, the news from people in the dark are also insignificant.

Parthian's alliance with Jin, coupled with the conditions between Jin and Kushan, allowed Parthian merchants to come to Jin's territory, and these merchants could also bring more useful news to Artaban, and more

Using the power of businessmen will be of great help to Artaban's next actions.

The reason for going to Chang'an was to see if the Jin Kingdom was as prosperous as the Jin merchants said.

With a city with a population of over one million, Artaban was quite curious as to what kind of heritage the Jin Kingdom had to be able to have such a city.

Forming an alliance with the Jin State was an opportunity for Parthia. The equipment production methods provided by the Emperor of Jin were of great help to the improvement of Parthia's military strength.

What made Artaban regretful was that Sima Yi could not return to Chang'an with the army. Sima Yi was shrewd, and Artaban knew this, but through Sima Yi, Aldaban was able to avoid more detours.

However, without Sima Yi leaving with the army, Artaban found a solution, which was Guo Jia, the Minister of War of the Jin State who he had just made friends with recently. In terms of position, Guo Jia was much higher than Sima Yi.

From the Minister of the Ministry of War to the Minister of the Ministry of War, it seems that there is only one step, but this step will stop more officials.

How important the chiefs of the three provinces and six ministries are can be understood with a little reflection.

The Jin State was relatively strict about the appointment of officials. Sima Yi was so talented and made many contributions to the development of the Jin State. He was promoted only after his mission to the Parthian Empire was successful.

The Jin State's employment system was rigorous, and an official's promotion to an important position required strict review.

This is also to prevent some young people from entering important departments and providing corresponding help to the enemy.

It is this employment system that excludes many officials from aristocratic families. Unless they are officials from aristocratic families with considerable reputation and achievements, it will be difficult for them to be reused.

It is reasonable for the Jin State to be wary of officials from aristocratic families. Who knows that the rise of Lu Bu is accompanied by the misfortune of a wealthy family.

How many aristocratic families fell under Lu Bu's butcher's knife. In this case, it is reasonable for the aristocratic families to have more hatred towards Lu Bu.

Officials from aristocratic families have a very small chance of promotion. However, if they enter the officialdom through the imperial examination system, there will not be much problem. However, the imperial examination system of Jin State has not been implemented for a long time, and this aspect will not be seen in a short time.

.

In the past, officials who came from aristocratic families were their glory and their capital to show off, but when it came to the Jin State, they wanted to hide their identity completely. This is what makes the Jin State different.

In order to achieve greater development in the Jin Kingdom, officials must want to continuously improve. In this comparison, officials from aristocratic families, with the same ability, will be promoted slower than officials from poor families.

Much more.

However, no matter how dissatisfied the children of the aristocratic family are, what role can they play at this time? After they enter the officialdom, their fate is in the hands of the Emperor of Jin.

Besides, the Jin court did not try its best to invite them to become officials, but these aristocratic families obediently allowed their children to enter the officialdom.

Aldaban suddenly felt that this trip to Chang'an would not be as smooth as imagined. Sima Yi was shrewd and through the conversation with Guo Jia, he was able to make Aldaban feel that this seemingly frivolous Minister of War of the Jin State was

, even smarter than Sima Yi.

However, Artaban would not give in easily. He wanted to have a deeper understanding of Jin.

In fact, if you want to understand some basic conditions of the Jin Kingdom, you can know it through the news sent by businessmen. However, these news will inevitably be unreal. You need to experience it in person to have more feelings.

Artaban has always paid more attention to this aspect of matters.

Five days later, Lu Bu led the Lieyang Archers and Guards Cavalry and left Chigu City.

At the same time, the war between the Jin army and the Xiongnu in Kangju did not stop because of Lu Bu's departure. After the tasks were completed, it was up to the actions of these officials and generals. Lu Bu recognized their abilities.

The Xiongnu had the help of the Xiongnu Chanyu, and the pacification was relatively smooth. However, some tribes, at this time, still refused to give up. They did not want to surrender to the Jin State, and they did not want to become a vassal of the Jin State. They wanted to maintain the pride of the Huns.

But these persistent tribes only brought about the killings of the Jin army. In the face of the powerful strength of the Jin army, the so-called resistance seemed so fragile.

The fighting power of the Jin army has been fully demonstrated in previous battles. Standing on the opposite side of the Jin army means having to bear the consequences of the Jin army's attack, and such consequences are often not those of the Huns.

The tribe can bear it.

The Xiongnu Chanyu also had a lot of emotions in his heart. If the Xiongnu tribe mainly surrendered when facing the Jin army, he would inevitably have more sadness in his heart. It seemed that something was missing.

But when tribes really stood up to resist, the Xiongnu Chanyu was not only proud, but also sad, because the resistance of these tribes brought about the massacre of the Jin army. When the Jin army treated the Xiongnu tribe,

But there is no such thing as kindness.

Huchuquan, who was also born in the Huns, did not hesitate in executing Zhao Yun's orders, and did not even stand up to speak for the Huns.

Although this behavior made the Xiongnu Chanyu angry, the Xiongnu Chanyu had no other options. Who makes the Xiongnu currently in an absolute weak position?

If the Xiongnu tribe could surrender to the Jin army, it would be good for the development of the Xiongnu tribe, but many Xiongnu tribes would not think so. They wanted the way of life they wanted, rather than surrendering to the Jin army and serving the Jin army.

Besides, the Jin State had an alliance with the Xiongnu before, but it betrayed its promise to attack the Xiongnu army. This led to the current defeat of the Xiongnu. In the eyes of many Xiongnu tribes, the Jin army officers and soldiers were out-and-out villains, and they followed such people.

, will make them feel ashamed.

The Xiongnu Chanyu defected to the Jin army, which was even more reviled by these Xiongnu tribes. As a Xiongnu Chanyu, after the defeat of the war, he did not even have the courage to die with the enemy. Are such Xiongnu qualified?

The Xiongnu Chanyu couldn't calm down in his heart, but he couldn't stop helping the Jin army in the war against the Xiongnu, because the killings of the Jin army's cavalry were carried out every day in the Huns' territory.

No matter what the Huns think of him, the Xiongnu Chanyu feels that his persuasion cannot stop because of this. He cannot watch the Xiongnu tribe suffer disasters. His life after joining the Jin army may not be what he imagined.

So good, at least your life is protected.

Lu Bu's methods of dealing with foreigners are generally good. The current situation on the grassland is a good example. Besides, at this time, is it necessary for the Jin army to deceive him?

Zhao Yun was naturally happy to see the Xiongnu Chanyu willing to contribute.

Zhao Yun did not see Lu Bu before he left, but Zhao Yun received the order from Lu Bu.

Guarding Chigucheng, as Zhao Yun expected, Zhao Yun's family has now received Chigucheng for him.

As long as the Jin army can achieve greater success in future wars, as a general in the Jin army, he should work hard to make the Jin army stronger.

After the Jin army occupied the Xiongnu and Kangju, there would definitely be many things to deal with. However, Lu Bu's dispatching Chen Gong to Kangju was very helpful in stabilizing the situation.

The methods used by the Jin army after wars in the past were quite effective, so Zhao Yun had no more worries about the situation after the war. If someone disobeyed the Jin army, they would definitely be greeted by the killing of the Jin army.

When dealing with the enemy, the officers and soldiers of the Jin army would never be merciful, because treating the enemy with kindness is equivalent to being cruel to oneself.

The Xiongnu's war went smoothly, and so did Kangju's war. King Kangju and General Kangju died on the battlefield. With the cooperation of Prime Minister Kangju, it was foreseeable that the situation would be stabilized.

Besides, given Kang Ju's current situation, even if he wanted to resist the rule of the Jin army, how much could he do? The most likely scenario would be to anger the Jin army.

Provoking the Jin army at this time will not do any good to the Kangju people, and the lifestyle of the Kangju people is very different from that of the Xiongnu and Wusun.

When the Jin army treated the people of Kangju, they did not kill them wantonly. Such actions provided great help for the Jin army to further occupy Kangju.

After successive wars, what the people of Kangju want is a stable life. It is reasonable for the people of Kangju to have such thoughts, no matter what achievements their monarch can have on the battlefield.

, it is the ordinary people who are harmed in the end.

Ordinary people are the most miserable existence in the war. They have to provide food and fodder for the army. When orders are issued from above, the situation is no longer something ordinary people can control. All they need to do is to act according to the orders of the monarch. If

Otherwise, you will suffer disaster.

This is the cruelty after the war. The people of Kangju who were familiar with the war actually had no more opinions on the rule of the Jin army, because after the arrival of the Jin army, their lives did not change much.

The reason why more people of Kangju fled was because they were worried that after the arrival of the Jin army, they would plunder the territory of Kangju. The behavior of the Huns before was the best illustration.

Now that the Xiongnu army suffered a tragic defeat, the Jin army was the ruler of Kangju.

After the Jin army's strategy to treat the people of Kangju, the people of Kangju who got the news had no more resistance to the Jin army. It seemed that they had accepted this fate.

In fact, when the Jin generals captured Kangju, they strictly implemented the orders above. However, the Jin generals were extremely cautious in their attitudes. No one could be sure that there would not be any resentment among the people of Kangju.

generation.

In the past, when the Jin army fought against enemy cities, they often encountered bad situations. They had to be more careful on the battlefield in order to ensure their own safety to the greatest extent.

The officers and soldiers of the Jin army had a cautious attitude towards the war, and they remained so after winning the war. Such an attitude would help the Jin army avoid further losses.

After the people of Kangju learned about the Jin army's strategy, they actually had no more resistance to the Jin army. Especially when they saw that the Jin army really did this, they remained silent about the arrival of the Jin army.

manner.

In fact, in many cases, wars are not decided by ordinary people. It does not mean that the situation of the people is not suitable for the monarch to fight, and the monarch will stop the war because of this.

The situation of Kangju and the Xiongnu is developing for the better.

However, after the various actions of the Jin army on the battlefield were reported to Guishang, it caused a relatively big sensation in Guishang. Who would have thought that after the Jin army united with the Xiongnu army, they suddenly turned against each other after they broke through the Kangju King's City.

.

The result was naturally that the Jin army won the victory without any suspense. Not only that, the Jin army sent troops into the Xiongnu and was gradually occupying the Xiongnu.

While the Kushan officials were shocked, they also had a lot of fears about the Jin army. It was already obvious what kind of attitude the Jin army had towards its allies.

Now that Guishan is making friends with the Jin army, should we pay more attention to this aspect? If we are to unite with the Jin army one day, we need to be more cautious.

The actions of the Jin army brought huge benefits to the Jin country. In the face of such benefits, even the Queen of Kushan was amazed by the methods of the Jin emperor. She could think of this way to achieve the goal at the minimum cost.

In order to obtain the maximum benefit, one can imagine the careful planning of the Jin emperor on the battlefield.

Before this battle began, the Jin State must have made sufficient preparations. Perhaps the Kushan army's attack on Guishan City had a great impact on the Jin army's plan, but the Jin army still realized their plan.
