Before coming here, Wei Yuan also worked hard on the situation in the Western Jin Dynasty.
The crony war in the Western Jin Dynasty was quite fierce. Among all the forces, the civil servants Qingliu, led by the two cabinet elders, Left Prime Minister and Right Prime Minister, were the most preferred. However, the Left Prime Minister and the Right Prime Minister could not deal with them. Currently, the Right Prime Minister was at a disadvantage. Otherwise, Sun Chaoen would
Money is not so easy to get in with filial piety.
Next are the nobles and generals headed by King Cheng. King Cheng is the uncle of the current King of Jin. His cultivation is earth-shattering, and his inner world has begun to manifest. Most of the generals in the court who hold heavy troops are
This faction, but Yue Jinshan is not.
Yue Jinshan does not belong to any faction.
Then there is the eunuch party headed by Liu Quangong, the great eunuch of Si Li, and Zhao Tong, the great eunuch of Bingbi. This faction was supported openly and covertly by the king of Jin, but it was still struggling and was the target of both civil and military suppression.
Originally this was the faction that Wei Yuan longed for. Although the Eunuch Party has never had a good reputation in history books, the history books were written by literati, and it was naturally impossible for the literati to write a good word about the Eunuch Party. Wei Yuan only read history by looking at the deeds themselves, not the deeds themselves.
Pay attention to the historian's evaluation. If you look at it this way, you can see a lot of things.
Historically, the interest ties of the eunuchs were relatively simple, and what they wanted were simple, mainly money, followed by power. After having money, many eunuchs would still do things. Unlike civil servants, who had power, money, beauty, enjoyment and reputation, and nothing else.
Let go, you want it and you want it, the relationship is extremely complicated, and it’s tiring just to look at it.
Another reason is that the eunuchs are the weakest and have no military power, and Wei Yuan can make up for this shortcoming.
As a result, I didn't expect that the Western Jin Dynasty had a weaker relative. How weak was it? The core figure Xianghou himself came to visit.
Wei Yuan's position for himself is quite clear. He is a Taoist monk in Taichu Palace. There are about 9,000 such people in the palace. In the world of Jianghu, he is not even a separate country. At most, he is a mountain who dominates the mountains and forests.
King. After repelling the attack of the Wu Clan, Wei Yuan felt that his status had improved and he took a step closer to becoming the number one horse bandit in the Western Region.
The prince of the imperial court personally recruited a band of bandits? Wei Yuan felt that this was not even written in the storybook, unless the bandit leader was named "Yizhihua" or something like that.
But Wei Yuan actually had a flower in his hand.
Wei Yuan said: "Isn't this Marquis Xiang trying to take advantage of my immortal tree? Then he is overthinking it."
"The idea must be made, but it is not necessary. That's why we have to look at your strength. In addition, I suspect that there are some things in the mission that the higher-ups want, but they don't want to be known, so it's best to use this
He was robbed. Otherwise, there is no need for Xiang Hou to mention it so much." Sun Chaoen said.
"I understand, I will adapt accordingly when the time comes. I just want to borrow money to settle the account, and the handling fee may be a bit high," Wei Yuan said.
The two quickly agreed on the details, and the matter was finalized. Yue Qilin was restless when he heard it. He didn't want to leave, and he didn't want to leave either.
Seeing the constipated look on his face, Wei Yuan smiled and said, "But this chair is uncomfortable?"
Yue Qilin said: "The most I can do is buy and sell some military supplies and weapons. All you can do is to exterminate the entire clan! I brought my family with me, and the little lady who just came in is not gentle enough!"
Wei Yuan consoled him: "Selling military supplies and weapons is like exterminating the clan, it won't be worse."
Then Wei Yuan added: "But I'm a little curious. General Yue should be short of everything, so how could he sell me millions of military rations in one go?"
Yue Qilin said angrily: "First of all, it's not me who sells the grain, it's Master Sun, it's the whole county. Master Li also acquiesced, and his share is not a lot at all. Secondly, the grain is given to you.
, I can live with my conscience.
Finally, all the sergeants in my battalion are paid in real terms. Eight thousand means eight thousand. According to the regulations of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the money and food allocated can only feed half of the people at most. If I don’t get money, what will my brothers eat? This is the front line.
How can those who fight against the Wu Clan not eat enough?"
At this time, Sun Chaoen said: "Speaking of positions, I just have an idea. Mr. Zhang is here, let's discuss it together."
Sun Chaoen took out another map and opened it, also hand-drawn by himself. This map was less precise than the previous one, but it was densely marked, and the defenses of the entire four counties of the Broken Realm were marked on it.
Yue Qilin just took a breath of cold air: "You want to rebel?" Wei Yuan smiled and said: "Seriously, I am a good citizen! I just want to know where the weakest areas are and may be attacked by horse bandits."
There were eye-catching red pen circles on several military fortresses, which were traps set by Yue Jinshan. There were question marks on several other military fortresses, so Wei Yuan and Sun Chaoen looked at Yue Qilin together.
"What do you think I'm doing? This is beheading, and I won't do it!"
Sun Chaoen said with a smile: "General Yue has not done enough beheadings? You don't want bandits to attack your uncle's direct lineage, right?"
Yue Qilin snorted and pointed at the picture: "I only know this one, but I don't know about the others."
Wei Yuan nodded: "There are traps everywhere, it should be almost done."
"What are you going to do?"
Wei Yuan reached out and pointed at a small town located on the second line and said, "I plan to clear this place out."
Yue Qilin remembered that there was some food and grass stored in that small town, but the amount was not much, only two to three hundred thousand catties. So he asked: "Are you still short of food?"
"I'm not lacking, but I want others to think I'm lacking." Wei Yuan said.
Wei Yuan and Sun Chaoen chatted until the latter half of the night and planned several things. Throughout the night, Yue Qilin ate so much that he didn't know what it was like. After all, he had participated in every one of these major events.
This meal resulted in several serious sins.
Now he finally understands that friends can be like-minded, or they can be involuntarily.
When he returned to the realm, Wei Yuan was full of harvests and had several more maps in his arms. There were military fortifications, trade routes, and the distribution of minerals.
In this plan, Wei Yuan didn't really want to join any group of cronies, he just wanted to muddy the waters. As long as he was given some time, Wei Yuan would be able to give him enough surprises.
In the battles before and after, more than 40,000 people died in the realm. After receiving the batch of military rations, there was no shortage of food, enough to support the harvest of the 20,000 acres of newly opened grain fields.
Nearly half of the people who survived had been baptized by the fire of war, and the rest had lived in the realm for a period of time, and their health had greatly improved.
Wei Yuan did not have enough troops at hand, so he exchanged a few of the easiest body-casting techniques from Taichu Palace early on, and distributed them directly to everyone. Now there are 40,000 new body-casting skills among more than 90,000 people.
There are a total of 60,000 body-casting monks in the entire realm.
Most of the so-called casts are only at the level of farmers in Huyang Village back then, but with the blessing of the power of the realm and the ability to eat and clothe themselves, these people's cultivation progress is very fast and they can complete the muscle casting in a few months.
In fact, those who can survive the various tortures in the Broken Realm are all physically strong, while those who are weaker will die long ago and will not survive to adulthood.
After returning to the realm, Wei Yuan carefully selected three thousand new monks and prepared to take them to practice and experience the level of local guards in the Western Jin Dynasty.
Qing Mingnei always acted vigorously and resolutely, Wei Yuan returned early in the morning, and by daybreak the team had already set off, heading east.
