The Jin dynasty has been in a period of turmoil, and the people live in poverty. Wang Meng wanted to help a talented person conquer the world, but he never found such a person. Huan Wen, the general of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, wanted to recover the Central Plains. On this day, he led the troops to the dam. When Wang Meng heard the news, he wanted to see Huan Wen.
Huan Wen attached great importance to talents and let him in. Huan Wen looked at the unexpected guest carefully, only to find that he was dressed in rags and behaved casually, but he was a burly and extraordinary man. Seeing that he was not an idle person, he put forward several questions for him to answer.
Wang Meng and Kan Kan talked clearly about state affairs, political and military situation, and people's lives. Finally, they came to the conclusion that the current advantage lies in the Jin Dynasty, not in the Hu people, and we should take this opportunity to recover the Central Plains. As Wang Meng spoke, he reached into his clothes and groped around, scratching around. It turned out that he was catching lice, which made the soldiers present snicker. The story Wang Meng asked spread.
Huan Wen thought Wang Meng was a talented person, so he was hired as an official. But the Raptors saw that Huan Wen was not a reliable hero and lacked talents, so they refused the invitation and returned to Huayin Mountain to live in seclusion.
In the first year of Shengping, the former Qin emperor who was opposed to the Eastern Jin Dynasty was killed by Fu Jian. Fu Jian seized the military and political power of the former Qin Dynasty and began to govern state affairs. He has heard of Wang Meng in the world, so he invited Wang Meng to work with him. The two met each other late, and their words were speculative. Wang Meng's field theory is well founded, which makes Fu Jian gasp in admiration. Fu Jian took him as Zhuge Liang. Wang Meng finally met a bosom friend and made up his mind to do his best to help Fu Jian create a great cause.
Fu Jian appointed Wang Meng as Shiping County Letter. The order in Shiping County is very chaotic, and several county magistrates are unable to manage it. After Wang Meng took office, he unceremoniously punished corrupt officials and arrested bullies who ran rampant in the countryside. People applauded. Wang Meng was promoted to be a Jing person because of his meritorious service in managing Shiping County.
After Wang Meng was appointed as Jing, within one month, he executed more than 20 relatives, officials and dignitaries who bullied the weak and feared the hard, which shocked the ruling and opposition parties and greatly improved the atmosphere. Fu Jian appreciated Wang Meng's talent very much, and was promoted five times in one year, from Jing to the official department minister, and then to Zuo Assistant Minister, Assistant Minister and official department minister. With Wang Meng's help, he can get to the root of everything. Starting from the long-term interests, he proposed to promote education and run schools, and personally went to the school to investigate and study. Fu Jian also cared about the sufferings of the people and paid attention to the frugality of the imperial court, which won the hearts of the people.
One year, Huan Wen, the general of the Western Expedition in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, led an army to crusade against the former Yan State. The former Yan sent someone to ask Qin for help, saying that the west of Hulao Pass could be ceded to Qin. Fu Jian asked the ministers for advice. The attitude of most people is that Yan stood by when we needed Qin's help, and now we should leave him alone. Wang Meng said nothing.
Fu Jian called Wang Meng to the backyard alone for questioning. Wang said: Yan is strong, but she is no match for the Eastern Jin Dynasty. If Huan Wen invades the Central Plains, it will be bad for our state of Qin, and it will be difficult for your majesty to do great things. It's better to unite with Yan, retreat the nomads from the state together, and then wait for an opportunity to destroy Yan. The principle of neutrality is at your fingertips.
Fu Jian repeatedly agreed to send troops to help Yan and defeated Huan Wen.
Soon, Fu Jian, the king of Qin, appointed Wang Meng as commander-in-chief, and ten generals, including An Yang, the general of Zhennan, led 60,000 troops to crusade against Yan Qian. Wang Meng was ordered to make full preparations and sent troops to attack Yan in June of the fifth year of Taihe. Qin Jun is like a tiger going down the mountain, sweeping and unstoppable, winning again and again. However, An Yang led the army to attack Jinyang and was in trouble.
Jinyang defenders, relying on high walls, tried their best to defend themselves, but Yang Anjiu could not attack, killing more than 65438+ 10,000 people. Also, Wang Meng came to support. He looked at the terrain and said: Jinyang City is high and deep, so you can't storm it, you can only outsmart it. You can look at me! In the evening, Wang Meng ordered 300 strong foot soldiers to dig tunnels from the city gate and open the city gate. Qin Jun swarmed in and Yan Jun was caught off guard. As a result, Jinyang was occupied by Wang Meng in the blink of an eye.
Yan Zhu Murong _ was shocked when he heard that Jinyang was lost. He ordered Murong Ping, a teacher, to lead 400,000 troops and crusade against Qin Jun. Murong commented that Luzhou dared not move forward. Wang Meng only sent guerrilla general Guo Qing to lead 5000 people around Yan Ying's back in the middle of the night. Light the torch and burn the rations. Yan Bing woke up and saw Qin Jun coming with a flashlight. He got scared and ran away. Mr. Murong hurried to fight, but to no avail, he had to lead dozens of people to flee back to Yecheng. Wang Meng led an army to surround Yecheng and surrendered to Fu Jian, the king of Qin. Fu Jian was overjoyed and personally led hundreds of troops to the front to help Wang Meng.
Yan Zhu Murong _ saw that Yecheng was in danger, so he abandoned the city and fled to Longcheng under the cover of night. Within half a month, all the state and county pastoralists of Yan surrendered to the former Qin Dynasty. Yan Qian is dead. From 3 17 AD when Murong De became a duke to 370 AD when Murong _ perished, Yan Qian ruled for 53 years.
With the help of Wang Meng, Fu Jian, the former king of Qin, grew from weak to strong, and his territory grew from small to large. After the annexation, it surrendered to the country established by the people, was destroyed, and captured Xiangyang and other places under the control of the nomads, unifying most of the northern region, which was equivalent to owning half of China's land. Dawan, Su Shen, Tianzhu, Haidong and other countries are afraid of the influence of Daqin. In order to live in peace and avoid harassment, they have contributed generous gifts. Wang Meng played an important role in Fu Jian's success.
