The book continues with the gossip "The World Speaks New Language": The 996 part-time work career of Xie An, the prime minister of the Eastern Jin Dynasty
【Incoming】
While the Eastern Jin Dynasty and Former Qin were fighting in Shuishui, Xie An was also fighting chess with his guests in his own home.
Under the rain, a family member sent in an urgent official document, Xie An glanced at it, gently put it aside, and continued to play chess as usual.
It wasn't until the end of the game that the guest asked what kind of official document it was, and then he took his unique Luoxia Shusheng Chant and said slowly: "The children have broken the enemy." ”
WHAT！ That is a rare classic example in Chinese history in which less wins more - the Battle of Feishui! The Eastern Jin Dynasty was able to continue to live, and the cultural race was passed on, but in Xie An's mouth, it was like the Chinese national table tennis took an ordinary championship again, so understated!
But the body still betrayed Xie An, when the guests left, Xie An immediately danced with his hands, did not want to suddenly snort, fell to the ground, it turned out that just now happily broke the clogs teeth without knowing it, directly came a dog to chew mud.
Xie An's temperament can be seen from this.
The so-called sentimentality, in our current words, is a word - loading!
Just now in front of others how understated, high and cold abnormal, but as soon as the guests left, there was how the original form was revealed, and what joy was not revealed, all of which were pretended to be in front of people.
But this can not blame him, the fashion of that era is - "dress".
Xie An was not only pretending, but at least there was truth. When he falls down, it is "real" - it hurts!
【World Talk】
There is also a story recorded in the world, Xie An and Wang Xizhi and several other friends took a boat to the sea, and encountered a big storm on the way, everyone was very afraid, but Xie An was still excited to look east and west, enjoying the scenery. It wasn't until the wind was getting stronger and the others were shaking with fear that Xie An said slowly, "It's time to go back." ”
Xie An in this story is either pretending, or the reflection arc is relatively long and the reaction is a little slow. For a person who has lived on land for a long time, occasionally going to sea to encounter wind and waves, wang Xizhi and other people's reactions are very frank, afraid is afraid, Xie An's response is not very common sense, a little deliberately suspected.
There is also a story, before the Battle of Shuishui, nephew Xie Xuan was recommended by Xie An as the commander-in-chief of the former enemy, and the young Xie Xuan had no bottom, so he ran to his uncle to ask for advice, but Xie An arranged a game of sightseeing, playing well, eating well, and drinking well, and then returning to each home and finding each mother.
This move was very effective before the battle, and Xie Xuan seemed to have suddenly opened his mind and learned to "pretend". He deliberately pretended to be very weak, ran to the boss and said: "It is not easy for you to run a trip, we can't fight, just solve it at one time, I Show Hand, let's make an appointment." “
Thus there is the paradoxical Battle of Shuishui described above.
In fact, there are also reasonable places to say that there is a paradox, when Wang Meng was dying, he once advised Jian Jian to do two things,
1. Kill Murong Chui (the leader of Murong Yan's state, who later held high the anti-banner and launched a rebellion to overthrow Former Qin);
Second, do not attack the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the reason is not that Wang Meng is a Han Chinese and has a Jin room in mind, it is really the Eastern Jin Dynasty that is politically proficient and talented, and before the integration of the Former Qin has not been completed, do not touch the hard nails, once it fails, it will produce a large-scale collapse like the domino effect.
Unfortunately, Jian Jian did not listen to the words of the military master at all, and did not carefully study the effective method of attacking the Jiangnan regime in the past generations-first occupying Jingxiang in the upper reaches, and then going down the water to the east and directly pounding Jinling. Although a partial division was also arranged to attack Jingzhou, it was attacked by Huan Wen's younger brother Huan.
The reason why Huan Chong was able to quickly repel the Former Qin army was because Xie An had received huan chong's hope of sending troops to participate in the Battle of Shuishui and the possible defense of Jinling, but he strictly refused, allowing Huan Chong to stay in Jingzhou to do a good job of dealing with Former Qin's split-road attack. Only in this way is the correct tactic to truly support Jinling.
As for the Battle of Shuishui, although Former Qin claimed to be a million, at best it was only three or five hundred thousand, not to mention that the front line was too long, and the pressure on logistics supply was too great, which is why the current Qin vanguard troops had already started fighting, and the last batch of troops had just left the Chang'an City Gate.
Before the battle, Xie Xuan connected with the undercover Zhu Xu in time, and any fortress was breached from the inside, so no matter how many people heard Zhu Xu's Chinese words, the emotions must have been contagious. This is where the rout occurred.
It seems that Xie Xuan has obtained the true legend of Xie An's "loading".
Using disguise to show weakness so that the other side has a feeling of pride and light enemy, it is easy to retreat, giving the Eastern Jin Dynasty an excellent opportunity to attack.
Under the sun, Xie Xuan saw the flaws of the Former Qin army, and with a wave of his sword, the Eastern Jin army took advantage of the situation to cover up, burying the Former Qin regime built in the desert one by one, and inserting a beautiful flower - ah, goodbye friend!
【New Language】
After the Battle of Shuishui, the emperor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and his clan found that a group of people with the surname Xie and related to xie appeared in various units and departments, so they began to exclude Xie An and deprive him of his powers.
This scene also happened during Wang Dao's reign, although the eastern Jin Dynasty was a political system in which the Emperor Sima family and the magnates jointly ruled the world, but how could the Sima family, who stole Jiangshan from orphans and widows, condone the birth of a new generation of powerful people?
A history of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and even the Southern Dynasty is a history of imperial power and courtiers fighting each other - Wang Dun, Su Jun, Tao Kan, Yu Liang, Huan Wen, Huan Xuan, Liu Yu... In the end, it was the powerful ministers who snatched the world from the orphans and widows.
The gun used by the powerful ministers to seize the world was the Beifu soldiers that Xie An used to crush the Former Qin army.
This Beifu army was mainly composed of a fierce class of displaced people in the Jianghuai area, based on the current Zhenjiang, which was called "Jingkou" or "Beifu" at that time, so this unit was called the Beifu soldiers, which can be said to be the most elite guards in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
In the Battle of Shuishui, the strong pawns that chased and killed Former Qin had figures who would be surprised in the future. These characters can't be pretended. A new cold class, a new historical era is brewing.
The Battle of Shuishui began in 383, and two years later, Xie An died, but his legend has always been circulated in the jianghu. The "name" that Huan Wen had in mind was finally invincible to Xie An's "dress".
