I. The conditions of Sima Yue and Sima Yue were not discussed
In December 304, the Rebellion of the Eight Kings was nearing its end. Sima Ying, the king of Chengdu at Yicheng, was forced to abandon the city and flee due to a joint attack by Wang Jun of Youzhou and Sima Teng, the assassin of Hezhou, and he fled with money and Emperor Hui of Jin to Chang'an, the domain of Sima Yong, the king of Hejian.
Sima Hao got the Jin Hui Emperor, and suddenly became a "prince who threatened the Son of Heaven to order the princes", and he, who was not a direct descendant of Sima Yi and was not qualified to own the world, suddenly became the first assistant, and he also owned the world.
Sima Yue, who was lurking in the East China Sea, was very dissatisfied with Sima Yue's sudden status and power. At this time, the Rebellion of the Western Jin Dynasty reached this time, and only Sima Yue could fight with Sima Yue.
Sima Yue was able to fight with Sima Yue because he had strength, nor did he himself have strength, but his three younger brothers had strength, the second brother Sima Teng was the Governor of Hezhou, the third brother Sima Liao was the Governor of Qingzhou, and the fourth brother Sima Mo was the Governor of Jizhou. The so-called brothers who fight the tiger, in this way, Sima Yue has the territory of the three states, and his strength cannot but prevent Sima Yue from being taboo.
Sima Yue had an idea, he planned to make Sima Yue the Taifu, and he himself supervised the world's soldiers and horses, which meant that Sima Yue would be the administrative boss and he would be the army boss himself. This condition could not satisfy Sima Yue's appetite, because he was already ranked as the "Three Dukes" when Sima Ran was in charge, and his condition was to take Shaanxi County, Henan as the boundary, and the two of them"
Divide Shaanxi into Bo
"Divide the world equally.
Sima Yong originally wanted to agree, but his general Zhang Fang objected. Zhang Fang believed that with Sima Yue's strength, he could "fully" the world, and there was no need to "half" the world with Sima Yue.
As a result, the negotiations broke down, and Sima Yue began to dispatch troops.
Second, Zu Di and Liu Kun went from smelling the chicken dancing to parting ways
Sima Yue ordered Sima Rui, the evil king of Lang, to be the general of Pingdong and stay in Xiapi to supervise the Xuzhou military; Sima Yue, the king of Fanyang, sent Xuchang tun to xingyang near Zhengzhou; and personally commanded 30,000 troops in Xiao County.
The army was assembled, the war machine had been launched, and Sima Yue was about to rumble forward, but he was abruptly stopped by a nail.
This small screw is Yuzhou, and the current Yuzhou Assassin is Liu Qiao.
Liu Qiao, the third marquis of Yimen, himself an old qualified general, served as the vanguard of Wang Rong in the war against Wu, personally took yashi and captured the important town of Wuchang (present-day Echeng) in one fell swoop, and made great military achievements, this person had a straightforward personality, dared to say and dare to do, and was never afraid of offending people.
Liu Qiao was a member of the Sima Yong system.
Liu Qiao's maternal brother Zhang Fu (張助), a general by Sima Hao's side, had saved Sima Hao's life and was used by Sima Qiao as the Assassin of Qin Prefecture.
Sima Yue did not want to offend Liu Qiao, but he was also very considerate, and he planned to transfer Liu Qiao from the History of The Assassination of Yuzhou to the History of the Assassination of Jizhou, and to transfer his cousin Sima Yue to concurrently serve as the History of the Assassination of Yuzhou.
Liu Qiao refused to take the order, he wanted to make an enemy of Sima Yue, so Yuzhou, an important military town in the Central Plains, became a nail in front of Sima Yue's war machine.
If Sima Yue wanted to move west into Chang'an, the only way was to remove the nail.
Sima Yue gave this task to Liu Fan's father and son.
Liu Fan, said to have been the king of Zhongshan Jing after Liu Sheng, did not stand out himself, but his two sons Liu You and Liu Kun were famous.
Both Liu You and Liu Kun were among the "Twenty-Four" friends of the Beijing literary group. The "Twenty-Four" friends were all born noble and literary.
Among the three fathers and sons of Liu Fan, especially Liu Kun was the most powerful, Liu Kun was recorded in the Book of Jin
"There is a talent for vertical and horizontal, good friends to overcome oneself, and quite exaggerated."
Liu Kun has a social circle of "twenty-four" friends, but it is not limited to this, "twenty-four friends" is a literary salon, in contrast, Liu Kun is more interested in the "wu salon" composed of Zu Ti, who is "victorious" in wu strategy, and for this reason he also made roommates with Zu Di, the two encouraged each other, discussed the situation, looked to the future, and "smelled the chicken dancing" every morning, and it turned out that it was the "wu salon" that had a greater impact on Liu Kun's future path.
The circle is not big, and if there is victory over itself, it will become.
Zu Ti did not dare to underestimate Liu Kun, he saw that Liu Kun was not only born with a golden key, but also had both literature and martial arts. Seeing the chaos in the Jin Dynasty and the rise of the powerful and powerful, Zu Ti thought that if Liu Kun and himself were fellow travelers, it would undoubtedly be a blessing, but if the two were not like-minded, they would part ways in the future, and it was not their own blessing to meet an opponent like Liu Kun, so he solemnly said to Liu Kun: "Brother, I see the current situation, the imperial court is weak, and the princes of all walks of life are supporting the army and respecting themselves, and soon the world will be in chaos, Hao Jie will rise together, and the Central Plains is a place where soldiers must fight, if you and I are unfortunate enough to become rivals, brothers and I am five years old, I will first take a stance, if I meet you, I will definitely avoid it." ”
Zu Ti, who was in his twenties, saw the future of the empire at this time and was extremely strategic.
Liu Kun is a person who understands, Zu Ti can say these words to himself at this time, and indeed regard himself as a brother, so he said: "Since the brother is so righteous, the younger brother also expresses a stance, and if you and I meet on the battlefield in the future, I will definitely avoid it." ”
These words have since become an oath between the two men.
The personalities of the two good friends are not the same, Liu Kun's personality
"Quite pompous", "extravagant, lustful for sound." ”
And Zu Ti's character is
"Sexual open-mindedness, no ritual inspection."
Compared with Zu Ti, Liu Kun is less calm, his competitiveness and vanity make him more impetuous, for Zu Ti, he is treated as a friend and an opponent, writing in a letter to his brothers: "I stay with my pillow and have the ambition to expel foreign captives for the country, that is, I often worry about being preempted by Zu Ti. ”
The two were separated from each other after Sima Yan's defeat, Liu Kun left Luoyang to join Sima Yu, and Zu Ti continued to serve under Sima Yan, and then followed Sima Yue on a campaign against Sima Ying, and fled back to Luoyang after failure.
The experience of failure gave Zu Ti the opportunity to self-examine. In the case of unclear situations, Zu Di decided to break away from the chaos of the Jin Dynasty, and he turned a cold eye on the sidelines, ignoring the competing summons of the Sima Yue brothers and Sima Yue, and he had to wait until he saw the situation clearly before making a decision; at this time, Liu Kun's sword had already been revealed, fighting for Sima Yue.
Liu Kun and Zu Di went from smelling chickens dancing to parting ways.
Liu and Zu are both heroes who are loyal to the country and lifelong friends. Personality determines fate, after that, Liu Kun has been charging forward and achieving great success, but in the end he failed, and finally promised the country with his own body; while Zu Ti was well-founded, staged many good plays that were quite civilized and martial, and the battles against foreign tribes were even more imposing, and there were few defeats.
Third, Sima Yue believed that his strength was stronger than Sima Yue's
In fact, Sima Yong has a lot of cards in his hand.
The first is the Emperor Card, which can allocate national resources and occupy the moral high ground with the Emperor in his hand.
The second is the Sima Ying card in his hand, at this time, although Sima Ying himself, the king of Chengdu, has nothing, his old gongshi Has created a new situation in Shanxi. Gongshi Fled to Shanxi and recruited troops in the name of Sima Ying. For a time, soldiers and grain eaters gathered, even deceitful and coaxed, and tens of thousands of guns were gathered.
Among this team was Shi Le, the Later Zhao king who later dominated the Central Plains.
Gongshi Ling used the capital of tens of thousands of horses to start fighting for territory, and even attacked Yecheng at one point, frightening Ma Mo of the Pyeongchang company here to ask Sima Xiao for help.
Sima Yong saw that Gongshi Was so powerful that he could borrow it, and then released Sima Ying under house arrest, and appointed him as a general of the Zhen Army, taking full control of the Hebei military, and appointing Lu Zhi as the Taishou of Yicheng and letting them return to Yicheng.
The third is Liu Qiaopai, Liu Qiao's Yuzhou is a base area behind enemy lines, strategic value and its importance, in order to ensure that Liu Qiao's resistance behind enemy lines can be maintained, Liu Qiao was appointed as the general of Zhendong, and false festivals, the offenders of military orders have full authority to deal with, first beheaded and can not play.
The fourth is the Guanzhong disciple soldier in his hand. Compared with Sima Yue's relatively loose 30,000 horses, Sima Yue's subordinate Zhang Fang had more than 100,000 guns in his hands, and ordered most of the world's states and counties. Sima Yue's power was only in Qingzhou, Jizhou, and Gunzhou.
Fourth, the initial battle was unfavorable, Liu Kun's parents were captured, and Sima Yue was passive
Sima Yue had to take Yuzhou before he could march into Guanzhong, and he ordered Liu Fan to serve as a protector of Huaibei and attack Liu Qiao at once.
Liu Qiao, who had been in battle for a long time and had a wealth of experience, immediately ordered his eldest son Liu You to lead his troops into Lingbi, which bordered Xuzhou, to prevent Sima Yue's main force from moving westward; he then asked Sima Yue to send reinforcements to jointly fight Liu Fan.
Sima Hao immediately made Zhang Fang the governor of Dadu, and led 100,000 elite troops to meet Liu Qiao.
In October, war officially broke out. Liu Qiao and Sima Hao's reinforcements fought Liu Fan's ambush. Liu Fan's purpose was Yuzhou, and he thought of attacking the city, but he was caught off guard and ambushed in the middle of the road, and was defeated, and he and his wife were captured.
Liu Kun and his brother Liu Yu were still relatively rational, and they did not fight with Liu Qiao, but came to Japan for a long time and went to Jizhou to throw Sima Yu.
This was Liu Kun's second battle, and his first battle was in the campaign of Sima Ran the King of Qi, Sima Ying the King of Chengdu, and Sima Yun the King of Hejian against Sima Lun the King of Zhao. At that time, Liu Kun took 30,000 horses to support the front line as a backup, and was immediately divided up by the front line generals, and he himself almost became the commander of the light pole, with thousands of soldiers to take on the task of guarding the river bridge, not to talk about the battle of the Eight Classics. This time, it seems that the hero always has to suffer first, which is true, but he was ambushed halfway and lost in the initial battle between Sima Yue and Sima Yue.
In the history of Gunzhou, Sima Shu, the king of Dongping, saw Liu Fan's defeat and immediately concluded that Sima Yue's defeat had been revealed, so he announced that he would break away from Sima Yue's camp and switch to The Sima Yue clique.
As soon as the war broke out, Sima Yue not only failed to capture Yuzhou, but also lost Gunzhou.
At the war between Yue and Yue, Sizhou, where the capital luoyang was located, was the main target of contention between the two sides, and the areas connected to the prefecture were Yongzhou, Hezhou, Yuzhou, Jizhou, Jingzhou, and Gongzhou, of which Hezhou had fallen into the hands of Liu Yuan, Yongzhou was Sima Yuan's stronghold, and Jingzhou, Yuzhou, and Gunzhou had already belonged to Sima Yuan.
Sima Yue fell into passivity in strategy, but he was a man of tenacity, he would not easily concede defeat, and he wanted to launch a Jedi counterattack.
