Chapter 1054: Turbulence
After transferring 30,000 horses, Du Yu had to shrink his forces on the front line, gave up Xinye and Huyang, which were currently fighting with the Shu army, and retreated in the direction of Wancheng, ready to defend Wancheng. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The sudden withdrawal of the Jin army from Xinye made Jiang Wei feel very inexplicable, it stands to reason that the battle between the two sides was very stalemate, and the Shu army did not occupy an obvious upper hand, but at this critical time, the Jin army suddenly chose to retreat, which is really incomprehensible.
However, then Jiang Wei quickly inquired about the reason for Du's retreat, and the battle in Luoyang was tight, and Sima Yan had to send troops from Nanyang, near Luoyang, to support Luoyang to ensure the safety of the Yellow River defense line. And the Jin army, which had just transferred 30,000 horses, was naturally difficult to maintain a fighting state on the front line of Xinye, and it was really helpless to retreat to Wancheng.
Zhong Hui also got the news of the retreat of the Jin army, and he immediately rushed to Jiang Wei's camp to visit Jiang Wei. After Zhong Hui returned to Shu, he was named the general of Zhenxi, and still commanded the old department, although Zhong Hui was completely controlled by the general Jiang Wei, but the army he commanded was independent of Jiang Wei's army, and he set up another battalion and did not mix together.
"General, this is great news!" As soon as Zhong Hui entered the big tent, he said to Jiang Wei with a smile.
Jiang Wei smiled slightly and said, "General Zhong also got the news that Du pre-reduced his troops and withdrew?" ”
Zhong Hui said: "Yes, I heard the news of Du Pre's withdrawal of troops, and specially came to congratulate the general, for several months, the two sides fought fiercely in Xinye, and did not distinguish between victory and defeat, and now the war in Luoyang is tight, Sima Yan has dispatched Du Pre's 30,000 people to Luoyang to support, and now Du Pre is difficult to support alone, it is a great opportunity for the general to march in a big way and sweep the cities of Nanyang, the general should march as soon as possible, take Wancheng as soon as possible, and then he can march to Luoyang and restore the Han dynasty in one fell swoop. At this very moment, please don't hesitate to ask the general, otherwise someone else will rob you of the first credit, where is the face of the general? ”
Jiang Wei's face changed slightly, and he said, "Why did General Zhong say this?" I, Jiang Wei, have inherited the legacy of Prime Minister Zhuge all my life, and take the revival of the Han Dynasty as my own responsibility, no matter who can capture Luoyang, it is the luck of my Han Dynasty, as for my Jiang Wei's face, what is there to worry about! ”
Zhong Hui said with a sneer: "Don't misunderstand, the general has no intention of sowing discord. Liu Hu's riding across the north, sweeping the world, now Luoyang is in his bag, such a feat, through the heaven and latitude, I am afraid that no one in the world can compare. Now when the world talks about the first person to destroy the Jin Dynasty, it is none other than Liu Hussar, but people don't know that if there is no general to maintain the overall situation in Yizhou and contain the main force of the armies of Wei and Wu, how can Liu Hussar achieve this immortal feat? Of course, the general is humble and bright, and naturally has no intention of competing for merit with Liu Hussar, and the world is stupid and ignorant of real talents, so he will be a little prejudiced. ”
Jiang Wei said indifferently: "The old man is more than seventy years old, and he has long been a person who covers his neck with loess, and the only long-cherished wish in this life is to see with his own eyes that the Han Dynasty can run rampant on the streets of Luoyang, and the banner of the Han Dynasty will fly at the head of Luoyang City, so that he can comfort Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng's spirit in the sky, and there will be no regrets about his death." ”
Zhong Hui said: "The general has done his best for the Han Dynasty all his life, and after his death, he captured Luoyang, which is not only the last wish of Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng, but also the thing that thousands of people in the world are looking forward to. He is willing to help the general, clear all obstacles for the general, and take Luoyang City. ”
Reviving the Han Dynasty and returning to the old capital is Jiang Wei's lifelong wish, for this wish, he has almost paid a lifetime of time, and now victory is in sight, Jiang Wei is naturally excited, of course, if he can personally lead this victory, then Jiang Wei's life will be brilliant and gorgeous.
Zhong Hui's suggestion really made Jiang Wei's heart move, Leaping Horse Luoyang City, what a pleasant thing it is, if it is possible, Jiang Wei is naturally the best.
"What does Isji mean?"
Zhong Hui said: "Now Liu Hussar's army is already Chen Bing on the north bank of the Yellow River, and Luoyang is close at hand, once Liu Hussar breaks through the Yellow River defense line, Luoyang City is at your fingertips, if the general is entangled with Du Pre in Wancheng for too long, he will inevitably lose the opportunity, in the humble view, the general is not as good as the soldiers divided into two roads, one way in Wancheng to continue to deal with Du pre-round, the other way to the north, detour to Luyang, take Luoyang, maybe you can fulfill the general's long-cherished wish. As long as Luoyang is taken, Du Zhenqi's army will inevitably collapse, and it will not be a problem. ”
Jiang Wei pondered for a moment and said, "Shi Ji's words are reasonable, and he can act according to the plan." So Jiang Wei ordered Jiang Bin, Wang She and others to lead an army to besiege Wancheng, and he led an army of 100,000 with Zhong Hui, detoured to Luyang, and went straight to Luoyang.

The movements of the Shu army naturally can't be concealed from Lu Kang, who is not far away in Yiyang. Now that the general trend in the world is turbulent, Sima Jin's demise is irreversible, which also gives Lu Kang a deep sense of crisis, and the reason why the three kingdoms have coexisted for so long is because of a strong momentum.
The three-legged stand itself pursues a balance, and once this balance is broken, the pattern of the world will also undergo earth-shaking changes.
After Wu and Shu became evil, the relationship between them has never been repaired, and Lu Kang will not think that after Shu conquers Luoyang and destroys Sima Jin, he will stop the war and rule the river with Wu, without interfering with each other, and the biggest possibility is that the Shu State will take advantage of the victory and advance to destroy the momentum of the Jin State, swallow Wu in one fell swoop, and unify the world.
This is undoubtedly what Lu Kang is most worried about, now Wu is the king of the faint king, the government is erosive, and the national strength of Shu is thriving, a thousand miles a day, once the weakest Shu State, now has become the overlord of the world, the powerful Sima Jin finally collapsed, and the Wu State, which has been mediocre and inactive, is even more difficult to resist the fire of revenge of Shu.
Lu Kang's health has not been good for the past two years, and he has been riddled with illness, and he has been worried that his life will be short. Zuo Da Sima Ding Feng has died two years ago, Zhenxi Governor Shi Ji also died of illness in the same year, and Zuo Prime Minister Lu Kai died four years ago, Prime Minister Zhang Bu and Pu Yangxing were killed by Sun Hao, the famous generals of Eastern Wu died one after another, talents withered, national strength declined, if they really fell, then Eastern Wu had no one to resist Shu.
Therefore, when he heard that Jiang Wei's army was marching north into Luoyang, Lu Kang gritted his teeth and got up from the bed, urgently summoning everyone to discuss the military situation in the future.
