Established a thousand-year family from the end of Qin Dynasty

Chapter 551 Competing in the Central Plains (49)

half year later

Autumn of the fifth year of Yan State 340 (555)
When Yan Xu finished the follow-up work of handing over the population of Qi, he was finally free to intervene in Liang's civil turmoil.

Whoever is in civil strife, Yan Guo will intervene in the internal affairs of that person, and take the opportunity to make a fortune.

Goguryeo and the Jin Dynasty would also take the opportunity to intervene during the domestic turmoil in Yan in the past. This kind of thing is quite normal.

For more than half a year, Hou Jing had occupied Jiankang City, imprisoned Xiao Yan, and starved to death of Xiao Yan in Taicheng soon after.

The clans of the Liang Kingdom split up and established themselves one after another, condemning Hou Jing with their mouths, but no one sent troops to recover Jiankang. It gave Hou Jing a chance to breathe.

Everyone wants to be the sixth child, everyone wants to be the oriole behind the oriole, and everyone wants others to be the mantis that catches the cicada, so that the cicada (Hou Jing) can be arrogant.

Political things are always so bad, a very important reason is that there are too many smart people.

We are all smart people, and we all want to make money out of others. In the end, a simple thing cannot be done well.

Xiao Ji, the clan, ruled Chengdu separately.

Xiao Yi, the patriarchal clan, ruled Jiangling separately.

The clan Xiao Lun ruled Xiakou separately.

The clan Xiao Xie defected to Yu Wentai.

The clan Xiao Yuanming defected to the state of Qi.

The clan Xiao Gang ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor.

The clan Xiao Qiao and Xiao Xiao went to sea to join the Yan State.

Faced with this great opportunity to fish in troubled waters, Yan Xu naturally would not miss it. He first dispatched a fleet to occupy Liang Guo's Haizhongzhou (Zhoushan Islands), and held a proclaiming ceremony for Xiaoqiao in this fishing ground area.

Xiao Qiao proclaimed himself emperor in Haizhong Continent, claiming to inherit Xiao Yan's Guozuo, and distributed a call to action, asking Liang Guoren to come and join him.

Some Liang Guo scholars from the coast really came to Xiaoqiao on their own initiative, and were immediately tied up by Yan Guo soldiers and sent overseas as slaves to open up wasteland.

The worst ones belong to the Xie family of Chenjun and the Wang family of Langya. They were originally one of the best big families in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Although they declined in the Liu Song Dynasty, they were still prominent.

However, Hou Jing harmed Jiangzuo. In order to collect military pay, he burned, killed and looted in Jiangzuo, and killed Jiangzuo's aristocratic families to the point of blood.

These pampered and self-righteous aristocratic families are fine with tossing and tossing the people at the bottom. Once they encounter a real butcher like Hou Jing, they will explode in an instant.

When Hou Jing had just fled to Liang, he wanted to marry a woman from the Wang family of Langya or the Xie family of Chenjun, but Xiao Yan ruthlessly refused, because Hou Jing's background was too low to be worthy of women from these aristocratic families.

Now, Hou Jing brought all the women from Langya Wang family and Chen Jun Xie family into the harem, and even rewarded his soldiers when he got tired of playing with them.

The women of noble families in the past are now reduced to military prostitutes.

"At the beginning, you ignored me, but today I make you unable to climb high!" Hou Jing has lived in many countries. Neither Yan nor Qi have such serious class solidification. The class solidification in Liang State is Really disgusted him.

In the country of Yan, even the children of ordinary people may be prosperous and rich by relying on military exploits, inventions and creations, exploring unknown islands, looking for overseas trading points, etc., and although it is more difficult for the bottom of the country of Qi to rise up than that of the country of Yan, at least there is still a way to go up. Needless to say, Yu Wentai took the initiative to let go of the ascending channel, hoping that the people at the bottom would fight for his dream of unifying the world.

Only the damn Southern Dynasty Liang State really did not give the low-level people a way to survive. Being a low-level commoner in Liang State is infinitely more miserable than being a slave to open up wasteland in Yan State.

Hou Jing has been in so many countries, only in Liang State can he deeply feel the shame brought by his class identity.

Although the Northern Dynasty was in war every day, it was always reforming and changing. Only the Southern Dynasty was like a pool of stagnant water, going deeper and deeper on the road of the Jin Dynasty.

The Xie clan in Chenjun was massacred by Hou Jing, and the rest of the Xie clan's descendants who survived by chance went to sea and went to Xiaoqiao, and then were tied up by the Yan army and sent overseas to open up wasteland.

Obviously, the Yan State doesn't care about the family members, it doesn't matter whether you are a family member or an ordinary civilian, you will go overseas to open up wasteland for me, don't even think about eating and waiting to die every day in my Yan State and not doing business!

Want to go whoring for nothing in my country of Yan?snort!

See if I can squeeze out your surplus value and it's over!
Since then, the Xie family in Chenjun, with a prominent family background, has completely declined. Only some distant branches of the Xie family remained.

The Wang clan of Langya was a little bit better, but it also declined. From the highest aristocratic family, it was reduced to a low-level noble family, and it has lost the glory of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

In the old days, Wang Xietang, Qianyan, flew into the homes of ordinary people!
After Haizhongzhou supported Xiao Qiao to proclaim himself emperor, Yan Xu was not in a hurry to go ashore to attack Hou Jing, but asked Xiao Qiao to proclaim himself General Sima of the State of Liang, King Wu, envoy, governor of Chinese and foreign military forces, and governor of Yangzhou. , under the banner of restoring Liang Guo to the country, openly plundered people along the southeast coast.

As long as Yan Xu's brain is not broken, he will not go to fight Hou Jing when he is full. If he has this skill to really go to restore the country, it is better to rob the coast of Liang country.

There are a large number of aristocratic families gathered on the southeast coast, especially Jiangzuo and Sanwu. There are even piles of aristocratic families, which are very suitable as targets for robbery.

Gu Lu, Zhu Zhang, and other Jiangdong gentry who had been inherited from the late Han Dynasty suffered a devastating blow from Yan Xu.

They were lucky enough to escape Hou Jing's massacre, but they failed to escape Yan Xu's looting.

For these gentry, the son was arrested to open up wasteland, the daughter of the daughter was rewarded to the soldiers of the Yan State, the ancestral tomb was dug up, and all the funerary objects inside were brought back to the State of Yan. Even the bones of their ancestors could not be preserved. Bring it back to the newly built museum in Yandu for storage, and it can be used as the historical and cultural heritage of Yan State in the future.

Local craftsmen, doctors, and poor scholars were also swept away, and everything that could be taken away was taken away.

At the same time, when Yan Xu led an army of [-] to plunder in the Three Wu area of ​​Jiangzuo.

Changan
"Now that the Liang Man is in turmoil, we should take this opportunity to go south and seize Hanzhong, Jiangling and other places. If there is a chance, we may even seize the entire Bashu!"

Yu Wentai called Liang Guo in the Southern Dynasty Liangman, which is a traditional name left over from the Wei State.

"We still need to be careful to guard against Qi." The staff reminded.

"I have already contacted the Turkic people and cooperated with them. They will help us attract the attention of Qi State." Yu Wentai replied.

In recent years, the Turks have risen and defeated Rouran, and the people of Rouran retreated to the eastern part of Monan, paid tribute to Qi State, and begged for Qi State's asylum.

Turks temporarily became Yu Wentai's ally and Gao's Qi State's enemy.

However, Yu Wentai actually wanted to unite with the Yan State in the east, but the distance was too far, and Qi State deliberately blocked it, so he couldn't get in touch.
