At the end of the battle, the sky was gradually breaking, and the pale blue sky was studded with a few remnant stars, and the earth was hazy, like a layer of silver-gray light veil.

The sound of the fighting gradually ended, and the Jin army achieved a brilliant victory. On the battlefield, sporadic screams can still be heard, the corpses of Hu people with missing arms and legs can be seen everywhere on the road, the ground and horses are covered with bright red blood, and in some places there are still unextinguished fireworks.

Walking on the battlefield, you can smell the disgusting smell in the air everywhere, as well as the thick smell of blood. After a night of fighting, the Jin soldiers were tired and weak, and they couldn't care about anything, and some of them fell asleep directly on the ground.

At this time, Sima Shu and others gathered in the big tent and made a lot of noise for a letter that suddenly appeared. As a victim and with an upright temperament, the old general Zhou couldn't hold back his anger and had to settle accounts with King Liang, but fortunately Sima Shu and others dissuaded him.

"Old general, Lone knows that you have suffered a lot of grievances, and when such a thing happens, Lone can't wait to bring King Liang to justice immediately. But the old generals we must calm down and think in the long run. King Liang is not alone, he has 50,000 Jin troops stationed in Guanzhong in his hands, plus the Zhenwei general Lu Bo is his confidant, and the Yongzhou Thorn Shi Xie is angry with one of his nostrils. If we venture to trouble the other party, we may be bitten back by the other party. ”

"Even if so, what can be done? King Liang doesn't dare to rebel, right? We have tangible evidence in our hands, isn't King Liang afraid that we will sue the court? Moreover, King Liang's subordinates are also my army of the Great Jin, do they really dare to help the abuse? Zhou Shi stared at the bull's eye, and he vowed not to give up until he reached his goal.

Sima Shu rubbed his head that was a little painful, he didn't expect Zhou's temper to be so hot, he said so much bitterly, but the other party didn't listen to a word. He was not as optimistic as Zhou, and he did not believe that a single letter could make King Liang bow down. In case King Liang jumped over the wall in a hurry and sent troops to surround and kill him, then he only had to blame the Hu rebels.

With the current relationship between Sima Shu and the family and Empress Jia, the court will never avenge him, but will secretly rejoice. Therefore, without complete certainty, he would never let the king of Liang know that the letter had fallen into his hands.

"Old general, please calm down, you can't solve the problem if you are so impulsive, right now King Liang has a heavy army, and the combined strength of the two of us is less than 5,000 people, what can you fight with each other? In this world, if you want to have a voice, you must have enough strength. ”

"Take this incident as an example, on the surface, we have the handle of King Liang and occupy the initiative. But think about it carefully, if King Liang relies on the forces in his hands, secretly kills us, and finally blames the Hu people, then we don't talk about cleaning up King Liang, I'm afraid we won't be able to save our own lives! ”

"This ...... This, is this King Liang so bold? ”

Although Zhou Chu was still hard-mouthed, he finally listened to Sima Shu's words, especially thinking that King Liang had given up five thousand innocent soldiers in order to frame him before, he felt that the prince's words still made some sense. King Liang is desperate, what can't he do?

"Old general, rest assured, this matter is wrapped up in Lone, and Lone will definitely seek justice for you in the future!" After Sima Shu saw that Zhou's attitude had softened a little, he struck while the iron was hot and assured the other party that this matter would be resolved satisfactorily.

After pacifying Zhou, Sima Shu had time to check the captured spoils, and the two battles captured nearly 50,000 Hu people, killed and wounded more than 20,000 people, and escaped less than 10,000, basically eliminating the main force of the Hu rebels. The most important of these was the capture of 30,000 horses, which was too important for Sima Shu, who was desperate to build up a cavalry force.

After cleaning up the battlefield, Sima Shu ordered his men to prepare to leave here and return to the camp, when there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves in the distance. Zu Ti stared at it, turned his head to Sima Shu and said, "Your Highness, it seems to be Sima Zhi's kid, there can't be any problem, right?" ”

Sima Shu was also stunned when he heard this, Sima Zhi was a young generation of generals he cultivated, and this time he followed him to conquer Guanzhong, because he was unfortunately slightly injured in the first battle, he left him to guard the prisoners and trophies, what is he doing here at this time?

Sima Zhi beat his horse and ran to Sima Shu, turned over and dismounted, fell to his knees with a plop, and cried bitterly, "Your Highness, I'm sorry for you!" I put ...... Lost the loot! ”

"What!? Don't howl! What the hell is going on? You make it clear to Lone! "When Sima Shu heard that the loot was lost, how could he not be annoyed, it was more than 10,000 war horses, who didn't blush when he saw it?

"Your Highness, our booty was robbed by Lu Bo under King Liang, that kid took King Liang's general order, and said that he would confiscate all the booty, and they couldn't help but say that they directly snatched all our horses. The brothers were so angry that they had injured hundreds of our brothers! Sima Zhi said while crying.

At this time, Sima Shu noticed that Sima Zhi was covered with wounds all over his body, and seeing his brother being bullied like this, Sima Shu looked up to the sky and roared, pulled out his saber and pointed in the direction of the camp, "King Liang, you are an old horseman, you are an elder, I didn't expect you to be a little house slave who dared to bully the palace like this, if you can't get justice, you will never give up!" ”

"Come on, gather troops for Lone!"

At this time, Zu Ti and the others were also angry, and they all shouted to give King Liang a good look, and the old general of Zhou was even more excited to shout that he was going to kill King Liang alive.

Here, Sima Shu is mobilizing troops and preparing to find trouble with King Liang, and over there Lu Bozheng is cleaning up with King Liang for Meng Guan and Liu Yuan. It turned out that not long after the crown prince sent troops, King Liang sent many spies to find out the news. Unexpectedly, it didn't take long for the prince to have good news, destroying 30,000 Hu cavalry and capturing a large number of horses.

Although King Liang was envious, jealous and hateful, he didn't have the courage to blatantly rob the prince's things. But Sun Xiu is different, in order to provoke the relationship between King Liang and the crown prince, he privately encouraged King Liang's henchman Lu Bo to snatch those horses.

This Lu Bo was originally a member of the Liang Wang's family, greedy for money and profit, and later hooked up with the King of Liang and became the forbidden son of the Liang King, and since then he has been prosperous in official fortune. This time, King Liang supervised the battle in Guanzhong, and Lu Bo was even more accompanied by General Zhenwei.

After observation, Sun Xiu knew very well Lu Bo's status in King Liang's heart, if Lu Bo had three longs and two shorts, King Liang would definitely find someone to work hard. Moreover, Lu Bo is greedy, coupled with the support of King Liang behind him, and he acts a little unscrupulously.

Under the provocation of Sun Xiu's words, Lu Bo finally dispatched a large army to surround the soldiers and horses left by the prince to guard the spoils, and he asked Sima Zhi to hand over the horses in his hand under the banner of King Liang, and then distributed them uniformly by King Liang.

Sima Zhi couldn't let the other party succeed, so the two sides had a discord of words, and they quickly started to move.

In the end, Lu Bo relied on the strength of the crowd to defeat Sima Zhi and others, and snatched a large number of war horses and roared away. When he came back, he happened to meet Liu Yuan, the leader of the Huns who had just arrived in Guanzhong, Meng Guan, the general of the crossbow, and others, and as soon as the two sides communicated, Lu Bo casually sold 6,000 war horses to Liu Yuan, and he kept the rest for his own use.

Lu Bo didn't take this matter to heart, in his opinion, King Liang was the commander of the Governor's Guanzhong, and he was the elder of the prince, and he was also 'justified', so even if the prince knew, there was nothing he could do about King Liang.

Besides, the prince, as a subordinate, should not have swallowed up the spoils, he was just taking back what belonged to the prince for King Liang. Therefore, after he came back, he didn't tell King Liang, and Sun Xiu had a ghost in his heart, and he would not take the initiative to confess to King Liang.

As for Liu Yuan, who took advantage of it, he would not make a fuss about nothing, Liu Yuan came to Guanzhong this time for two purposes, on the one hand, to observe the combat effectiveness of the Jin army at close range, and the other was to get rid of the prince for the family.

Although Meng Guan had doubts, he didn't want to cause trouble when he first arrived, so at the welcome dinner, everyone only cared about drinking and having fun, and they didn't expect a storm to come.

"My lord, I heard that the prince has arrived a long time ago? Why didn't you show up? Meng Guan was a little surprised that he didn't see the prince at the banquet.

"This ...... This prince went to the army just yesterday. King Liang replied with some embarrassment.

"Oh? Why is the prince in such a hurry to send troops? ”

Although Meng Guan is a party of Jiahou, he has no ill will towards the prince, he is still a little different from Dong Meng, Cheng Ju and others, he just threw himself into Jiahoumen, if it wasn't for the emperor being too cowardly, it is estimated that it would not be Jiahou's turn to recruit him.

"Before, the widow sent General Zhou to explore the rebels, who knew that he accidentally fell into an ambush by the rebels, and the widow was planning to send troops to rescue, and it happened that the prince was willing to raise troops to go, so the widow sent the prince to lead his soldiers to meet General Zhou." King Liang is really thick-skinned enough to lie without even blinking his eyes.

And Meng Guan and the others just arrived, and they didn't know anything about the inside story, so they were fooled by the other party. At the banquet, everyone drank happily, and among them, Liu Yuan's eyes lit up from time to time, looking Meng Guan up and down. It is said that Liu Yuan has never taken Liang Wang and others in his eyes, and only Meng Guan is the only one present who makes him a little jealous.

This Meng Guan is a rare fierce general, Liu Yuan felt that if there was no help from the Huns, the imperial court would have to rely on Meng Guan if it wanted to suppress the rebellion, and King Liang was a straw bag in his eyes.

And Sima Shu was even more regarded as a dead man, he believed that this time the prince could not escape from the palm of the Huns, as long as the prince died, the Jin Dynasty would definitely fall into civil strife. Then the opportunity for the Huns came.

Liu Yuan had already set his sights on a few years later, and as for those who were currently calling him to the Jin Dynasty family, he didn't pay attention to it at all. Liu Yuan believed that sooner or later, these great families would bow down to him!

Liu Yuan was born in the grassland, believing in the law of the jungle, and he believed that under the hooves of the Hun warriors, any person or force must bow their arrogant heads.

Just as everyone was getting drunk, there was a sudden rush of angry cheers outside, followed by a chaotic sound of footsteps. And Lu Bo, who had a ghost in his heart, changed his face when he heard it, and he felt that something was wrong!
