Chapter 388: The Reversal of the Situation (3)

It was late at night, but the chamber of the Great Sima Mansion was still brightly lit.

"At the end of today's court meeting, His Majesty actually took the initiative to propose the Eastern Crusade, which seems to be not a small plan."

The so-called plan is not small, of course, it is not that Emperor Liu Chan has the ambition to mix up with the universe at this time, but hopes that Guan Yi can leave the center of the court for a long time again, so that he can get up and down more conveniently and prepare for the future coup d'Γ©tat.

"Great Sima, although Your Majesty is saying this out of another consideration. But I have to say, judging from the situation that my subordinates have mastered. Because our Han still seems to be at ease in the face of the joint attack of the Jin and Wu countries this time, there is some blind optimism in both the government and the opposition. The call for an immediate crusade is expected to ring in the court soon. ”

It was Si Wenling Lu Ya who said this, as an official in charge of intelligence and public opinion, what he said really gave Guan Yi a little headache.

On the surface, it seems that's right, in the face of the attacks of Jin and Wu, Ji Han won on all four battlefields without using the main force. However, these four places all have strong particularities - such as Nanzhong and Fuling County, which are the most popular places of the Jihan government or the Fuxing Society. But what if you go out and attack from here? That's really hard to say. Didn't you see that militants like Wang Ji were busy building checkpoints after taking Cangwu County, and they didn't want to take a step further north?

The two countries of Jin and Wu still have considerable strength at this time. Offense, in a given environment, may be lacking, but defense is still more than enough.

As for Ji Han himself, it is unlikely that there will be a drought this year, but the drought is not easy at all. And at this time, Ji Han's strength reserves were still somewhat insufficient. At least at this time, Guan Yi did not think about expanding the army. The army has not expanded, and Ji Han is now more than 100,000 horses, how can he go on a large-scale eastward expedition?

Not only that, but there are also quite a lot of hidden dangers within Ji Han.

According to Guan Yi's idea, it is best that during this joint attack of Jin and Wu, the emperor can't bear to be lonely and cause trouble. Some of the larger, ambitious alien tribes in Guanzhong can't bear the loneliness and cause trouble. Some families whose interests have been damaged have also taken this opportunity to make trouble. When these guys came up, he cleaned them all up, and the inside was relatively refreshing. Then there is no distraction to prepare for the crusade. That's how you can get twice the result with half the effort.

It's a pity that what disappointed him was that the emperor, the alien race, and the family were all very quiet in this nearly half-year-long war. This made him very depressed: if others don't make trouble, he can't do the knife.

"Hey, Zhong Le, Tree Function, Yao Ke have been really quiet during this time?"

"Yes, yes. Da Sima, his subordinate Si Wencao did his best to monitor these alien leaders. But in the past few months, let alone the tandem or actual actions. Even the messengers who came and went were very few. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It seems that although the new king jumps up and down is very conspicuous. But our Majesty is very calm. ”

After Guan Yi said this, he was not very surprised: as a person who had a strong interest in this period of history before crossing over. Guan Yi knows very well that Liu Chan is a very smart person. Such a person is really not moving, and he must have been sure of his movements.

Therefore, it is necessary to continue other work, and continue to expose the flaws to this intelligent but cautious emperor.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the situation is almost clear at this point. The next thing is how to communicate with Jin and Wu, and the three parties completely stop the war. ”

After Guan Yi opened this topic, everyone in the hall frowned unconsciously.

Jin and Wu, the Jin State was relatively easy: the Sima family only lost people and no land this time. Although it did not suppress Cao Wei, who raised the flag, it caused it to lose a lot of points politically. But the political meaning of this thing, if you value him, he is everything, and if you ignore him, he is nothing. Moreover, after this battle, the Sima family will inevitably have a process of summing up and regathering strength. Therefore, on the side of the Jin Kingdom, it can be ignored.

The more troublesome is Soochow.

This time, Soochow's losses were the heaviest. Not to mention the loss of troops, he also lost three and a half counties of territory. Such a loss, let alone Sun Hao, who is now strong. Even Sun Xiu, who used to swallow water, probably can't erase this face, so he won't just admit it.

After this war, Ji Han's strength is bound to leave a deep psychological shadow on the two countries. Jin and Wu will be much less careful with each other. The alliance between the two countries will certainly be further deepened. Therefore, Wu was in a position to send more troops to carry out a second attack on Ji Han.

Of course, with the defense of Yong'an, as well as the people's aspirations of Fuling County and Nanzhong. Ji Han was not afraid of Soochow's second attack. But the crux of the matter is that now Ji Hanxin has taken the territory of three and a half counties. Moreover, the three southern counties of Jiaozhou have the outlet to the sea that Ji Han dreamed of...... What Guan Yi is thinking about now is how to reach a peace agreement with Soochow and digest the territory of these three and a half counties.

Therefore, Da Sima really doesn't want to fight.

Above the hall, everyone thought quietly for a while. Ma Guo raised his head: "Da Sima, my subordinates have an idea." ”

"Well, what's the trick to change that?"

"Great Sima, colleagues. Sun Hao, who seems to have a strong personality on the surface, is actually very inward-looking. Therefore, the lower officials thought that it should be so and ......"

"Hahaha, good, let's arrange it over there. Xingzong, I have to trouble you to go to Jianye again. ”

"No, the subordinate will receive the order!"

……

On the other side, Luoyang.

After the news of Sima Jun's defeat was returned, the Luoyang government and the opposition were in an uproar. After everyone came back to their senses a little, the clans and families gathered to write a letter, asking the country to send a large army to attack again.

Everyone knows that after this defeat, the country has lost a lot of strength that has just recovered. It's really not good to send troops again. In the poor place of Shangyong Three Counties, when the Luoyang government used to hold it in its hands, the taxes received from it were almost nothing after subtracting the officials there. Why bother to invest so much money there?

But no one is stupid: the suppression of Cao Wei's remnants is an absolutely correct thing to do politically. At this time, such an angry roar is a necessary thing in officialdom. Not to mention a minister like Jia Chong who is completely tied to the Sima family and will never be able to get off.

To tell the truth, Shangyong was defeated, and the most depressed person was not Sima Yan, but Jia Chong.

When Cao Wei had just raised the flag, Jia Chong had nothing to do with this matter. But when the news of Shangyong's defeat was announced, Jia Cheqi was so frightened that he couldn't sleep for several nights.

Therefore, Jia Cheqi's attitude is completely different from Pei Xiu and the others: Your Majesty, we must send troops again! You can leave it anywhere else, but you must not let the Cao family turn over!

It's a pity that Sima Yan is not stupid. He really didn't want to fight.

But the emperor didn't want to fight, but he couldn't take the initiative to say that he wouldn't fight. Therefore, at the great court meeting on this day, in the face of the shouting and beating of the Manchu civil and military, he helplessly set his eyes on Sima You.

"Brother Huang, what do you think I'm doing? Do you want my younger brother to come out and take the blame for you? "Although Sima You is a very public person. But there is no duke who is selfless to this point: as long as he opens his mouth and says that he will not fight, Sima Yan will definitely say that he will not fight. But in this way, his reputation will be completely ruined.

But at this moment, Sima Yan just looked at him like this, forcing him to be extremely helpless.

Sima Yan looked at him, Pei Xiu, Du Yu and others also looked at him with blank eyes: His Royal Highness King Qi, hurry up and say that you won't fight. Otherwise, the little vitality that the country has just recovered will be wasted again. After all, we don't have the surname Sima, so we can't afford to bear this responsibility. You can!

"Your Majesty, as for whether to send troops again, the minister is young and ignorant, and he does not dare to say anything. However, there are still seniors in my Sima family alive, so why don't you ask King Anping's opinion? ”

In the end, he inherited the excellent genes of his mother Wang Yuanji, and Sima You, who was forced into a corner, had a flash of inspiration and successfully dumped the pot to Sima Fu.

Well, Sima Fu is now in his nineties, and he is only one breath more than a dead man. And he is also the winner of the Lifetime Achievement Award in the film industry: Cao Wei Zhongchen, who has pretended to be a lifelong servant. You ask him for his opinion, do you still have to guess what he said?

As soon as Sima You said this, whether it was Sima Yan or Du Pre or Pei Xiu, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Even the ministers who shouted and shouted to kill just now to show their loyalty quickly died down.

Just as Guan Yi expected, the Sima family just needed a step down. So when Sima You brought out Sima Fu, the Jin Kingdom had no thoughts about Shangyong for the time being. The brief peace between the Han and Jin dynasties came.

As for Sun Wu. In May 270, Zhuge Jing sent another envoy to Jianye and dug a big pit for Sun Hao.
