Since the great defeat in 263, the Jin Kingdom has also had more than four years to recover. Now, the military forces of the Jin state are roughly distributed as follows:

Guanzhong Army: Commander Sima Wang, stationed in Chang'an, 60,000 troops (rebuilt).

Longxi Army: Commander Hu Fen, stationed in Ji County, with a strength of 50,000 (rebuilt).

Jingzhou Army: Commander Sima Liang, stationed in Nanyang, with 40,000 troops (battle damage).

Yangzhou Legion: Commander Sima Ling, stationed in Shouchun, with 80,000 troops.

Qingxu Legion: Commander Sima Jun, stationed in the underground Pi, with a strength of 50,000 (newly built).

Youji Corps: Commander Wei Guan, stationed in Jixian County, with a strength of 50,000 (reinforcement).

Bingzhou Legion: Commander Sima Tai (Sima Yi's fourth brother, the son of Jida Sima Kui), stationed in Taiyuan, with 20,000 troops (newly built).

In addition, there were 150,000 reorganized Luoyang Chinese troops (of which, Chen Qian took 20,000). The total standing strength of the country is 500,000.

"Your Majesty, now the Yongliang Legion has a total of 110,000 troops, just in case. The minister suggested that another 30,000 people be transferred from the Luoyang Central Army to reinforce it. ”

"Yes. But who can lead the army? ”

"Uh......" This really asked Zhang Hua. Now in the Great Jin Dynasty, the most capable one must be Shibud. But you said just now that you are not allowed to use him. Is it possible to send Sima Fu to go? That old man's ability is fine. The key is not to move!

So Zhang Hua turned his attention to Pei Xiu.

Pei Xiu was also depressed. In such a big country as Dajin, it is not too difficult to find a general. But the key is that the boss of your Sima family's mind is narrower from generation to generation! Take a look at the current army commanders in various places in the Great Jin Dynasty. Hu Fen and Wei Guan are all in-laws with your family, and all the rest are surnamed Sima! If I were to recommend a different surname, I wouldn't be able to get through you. But your Sima family, except for Sima Fu and Sima Wang's father and son, there is really nothing that can fight!

"Uh, Your Majesty, the minister recommends the prince of Anping and Sima Zikui to lead the troops."

Sima Zikui is Sima Yong, the eldest son of Sima Fu. In the last moments of Sima Zhao's life, he briefly served as the leader of the Cao Wei Empire. During the period of the Wei, Jin, and Chan dynasties, it successfully maintained the stability of the Chinese army. It effectively guaranteed the smooth progress of the Wei and Jin Chan dynasties.

But after Sima Yan took the position, he immediately turned his face and did not recognize anyone. added his father-in-law to the title of general of the town army, wanting to grasp the Chinese army more closely in his hands. As for Sima Yong, this prince is actually not in very good health, and he is also idle for Sima Yan's wrist. So I happily handed over power.

So Pei Xiu's suggestion is very much in line with Sima Yan's heart: Third grandfather, your eldest son sent troops, don't you make sense if you don't give two instructions? Uncle Cousin, I'm a little embarrassed to remove you. No, the compensation is coming.

"Good! Shang Shu made this discussion, and he won my heart. That's it! ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Your Majesty, according to the previous law of Xishu's invasion. The Shu thief country is small and weak, and every time it sends troops, it likes to pull Dongwu to send troops together, so ......"

Hey, I know very well in my heart that Pei Xiu is right. But there are so many holes in the country to fill. What the hell is this?

"Well, Shang Shuling is right. However, judging from my perception of Soochow, this country is more than self-preservation and not enterprising. The battle four years ago is very telling. ”

"So what does Your Majesty mean?"

"Send an edict to the fourth and fifth uncles, so that they can strengthen their combat preparedness and beware of a sneak attack by Soochow. In addition, he also gave the sixth uncle and the general a decree, when necessary, the sixth uncle supported the fifth uncle (the Qingxu army supported the Yangzhou army), and the general pacified the Shangyong rebellion as soon as possible, and then led the army back to Luoyang without hurrying. Support Jingzhou when necessary. ”

"Yes."

……

That night, the news that the imperial court was ready to let Sima Yong take command to rush to the aid of Yongliang reached the palace of Anping.

"Father, the child has never been on the battlefield. This time he led an army of 30,000 to the west, and he still needed more guidance from his father. ”

Sima Fu, the king of Anping, is eighty-seven years old this year. Although the old actor is still in front of people, he still regards himself as a relict of the Great Wei everywhere. But now that it's at home, there's no need to be so disguised.

"Well, Wu'er will go this time, pay attention to three things."

"Father, please."

"First, after going to Chang'an, don't think that Zichu is your younger brother and dictate to him. Although Zichu is indeed a little greedy, his art of war is far above yours. So after going to Chang'an, everything was under his command. ”

"Whoa! The child wrote it down. Please rest assured. Although Zichu is the younger brother of the child, he is now out of the uncle's family. It's the son of the long house. The child should treat him with the attitude of a small sect serving a large sect. ”

"Well, very good. This second, this time I went to Chang'an, you can directly ask Zichu for orders, lead the 30,000 Chinese troops alone, and drive to the street pavilion first! ”

"Street Pavilion?!"

"Hmm. lived for his father for more than eighty years and met Cao Mengde, Liu Xuande and Zhuge Kongming...... More than 30 years ago, Zhuge Kongming entered the Kou for the first time, and almost shook the foundation of the Wei State. If it weren't for Zhang Junyi, he would have taken the street pavilion...... Over the years, the national strength of Xishu has become weaker and weaker, and it has not been able to hit the street pavilion at all, so the street pavilion city fortress has been completely abandoned. But this Guan Zifeng is different, I think his changes in Xishu should be able to receive a lot of results. So this time, Xishu's entry into the Kou should not be underestimated. After your support army entered Yongliang, they were stationed in the street pavilion. In this way, whether there is a problem in Guanzhong or Longxi, you can effectively help. ”

"Obeyed the order, after the child went to Chang'an, he discussed the matter with Zichu. Be sure to follow your father's advice. Well, there's a third thing......"

"Well, you've done a great job as a leader in the first two years. But after all, he has not really been on the battlefield. So someone has to help. ”

"This is exactly what the child is worried about, and I ask my father to show me, who can help?"

"Well, my father suggests that you ask Your Majesty for an order tomorrow to recruit Wang Rong, Wang Xuan (Xuan) Chong, Wang Jun (Jun), Wang Shizhi, Zhou Zhi and Zhou Zimei to go with you."

"Uh, father. Wang Xuanchong is very familiar with the child. This person is good at dancing with long sleeves and is good at appeasing the soldiers and the people. If he could be in the army of children, the children would not worry about the morale of the army. But who are this Wang Shizhi and Zhou Zimei? The child has never heard of it. ”

"Wang Shizhi is Xu Jingshan's son-in-law."

"Huh?! The Xu Jingshan that my father said, but in the past, every time he went to a place in the Wei State, he would inevitably make the local people live and work in peace and contentment? ”

"It's this person. How's that, his son-in-law won't be bad, right? ”

"It shouldn't be bad."

"Hehe, don't underestimate him. This person is also a high-ranking official with 2,000 stones. In terms of family background alone, it is more noble than my Sima family. The reason why this person's reputation is not obvious is that there are no so-called celebrities, like the fire cloud evil god, who deliberately disguise and raise hope. When his father served as the assassin of Sizhou before, he was still a small business in Hedong County. Since then, the father has been paying close attention to him. This person is now serving in the army under Jingzhou Yanghu, and his uncle is also full of praise for his talent. With this person, you don't have to worry about marching and fighting or arranging your troops at all. ”

"Oh! All right! So father, what about the last Zhou Zhi Zhou Zimei? ”

"This person came from a poor background, so it was difficult for him to get promoted. When his father was out of the town before, he was a tooth keeper. But now he is still a tooth goalkeeper under Du Pre. Hmph, Zhou Zimei's talent, where can a small tooth keeper pretend? Well, if this person wants to make an analogy, it is estimated that he can be compared to Zhang Wenyuan! ”

"Huh?! Father, thank you Father. With these three people. The child can go to Yongliang to take office with peace of mind. ”

After a while.

Sima Fu, who was pretending to be asleep, opened his eyes: "You still have something?" ”

"Uh...... Father. The child has something to say, and he still needs the father's guidance. ”

"Are you trying to ask, why did King Qi come to my mansion and ask me to come out to make a suggestion to His Majesty's crown prince, but the old man didn't pay attention to him?"

"Exactly. Father, I know my heart very well. That dementia really can't be changed when you grow up. Such a person is the prince, and I will be ......"

"Hehehe, this Da Jin is the Da Jin of the second brother Zhong Da's family, not the Da Jin of our third uncle's family...... So, this is someone's family matter, and we don't want to get involved. ”

"Father!"

"Okay, for the sake of my father, you can contact Du Yuansian and Uncle Yang as soon as possible and let them release him. Come on, help the old man back to the room. ”

……

When Sima Fu relied on the advantage of being a leader for sixty or seventy years and having connections all over the world, he casually gave his eldest son three outstanding people, which greatly comforted Sima Yong's restless heart. In the palace of the Jin Kingdom, Sima Yan also sought comfort from his queen Yang Yan.

"Hey, although this Guan Zifeng tore up the covenant and blatantly entered the prison, but because of his entry. My ears have finally been able to stop a little lately. ”

Sima Yan's current empress, Yang Yan, and her father Yang Shan, died too early. She grew up in the home of her adoptive father, Yang Jun. So I have always developed a cautious character. Yang Yan was a good listener to the emperor's confessions.

"Your Majesty, Zitong thank you Your Majesty for taking care of the old feelings. Just heartfelt him...... Zitong saw His Majesty working day and night on state affairs, and only felt that this emperor had too much responsibility and hard work. If you want to ...... someday"

"Rest assured, the Queen, I will not think about my children and grandchildren. Donggong is set, and the next thing is to find a good teacher for him. When the matter on Xishu's side is over, I will transfer Hu Fen to Youzhou, and then transfer Wei Boyu back to be a heartfelt master. In addition, didn't Wei Boyu's daughter hear that she was very beautiful and knowledgeable? When the time comes, let her be my daughter-in-law. ”

"In this way, Zitong will be relieved."
