The land of Yuzhou is the heart of the Jin State, is the southeast barrier of Luoyang, if Yuzhou is lost, it is equivalent to the southeast gateway of Luoyang, and the seriousness of the consequences is self-evident. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Therefore, to ensure that the southeast gateway of Luoyang is not lost, for the Jin court, has always been the top priority, Chen Qian is simple and steady, quite talented and resourceful, but the general is not the director, among the generals of the Jin State, it is indeed not a famous general.

The Battle of Yiyang seems to confirm this, the Wu army invaded Yiyang in the north, Chen Qian led his troops to counterattack, but was defeated by the land resistance, and the Jin State lost Yiyang, and there has been no chance to recapture it since.

At that time, the government and the opposition were shaken, and the loss of Yiyang made the army of Eastern Wu approach to the range of Luoyang for the first time.

At this time, some ministers proposed to remove Chen Qian, but Sima Yan did not agree, thinking that Chen Qian was calm and capable, and he could not deny his achievements in Yuzhou because of Yiyang's defeat, so Sima Yan insisted on his own opinion and did not remove Chen Qian, and he still served as the military and political chief of Yuzhou.

Because Wu Junbing was near the Huai River, the situation in Yuzhou, which originally belonged to the hinterland of the Jin Kingdom, became grim at this moment, although Chen Qian had Sima Yan's support behind him, but he also knew that if he didn't have a good record, he would still be criticized, and sooner or later he would lose his official position and be dismissed.

Therefore, Chen Qian has always been a strong soldier in Yuzhou, paying close attention to the defense of Yuzhou, and on the line of the Huai River, he has always arranged heavy troops for defense, and strengthened the vigilance in Runan, Chen County, Yingchuan, Liangguo and other counties in the hinterland of Yuzhou, and did a good job in echelon defense to ensure that Yuzhou is not lost and the safety of the Beijing Division.

In the past few years, under Chen Qian's management, the situation in Yuzhou has been in a relatively stable state, and Wu has not committed another war, and the two sides have been at peace with the Huai River as the boundary.

Compared with the wars in the northern states, Yuzhou has maintained a stable and tranquil situation, in this world is in turmoil, this stable and peaceful situation is indeed commendable, Yuzhou has naturally become an important source of taxes and soldiers for the Jin State in recent years, providing the most solid logistical support for the Jin court to support the crisis.

Chen Qian also sat firmly in the position of governor of Yuzhou because of his exploits in Yuzhou, and no one questioned Chen Qian's ability anymore. After so many years of operation and development, Chen Qian has also cultivated a large number of forces loyal to himself in Yuzhou, and gradually became one of the three powerful forces in the Kanto.

With the fall of the northern states and the danger of Luoyang, Chen Qian's situation in Yuzhou gradually became embarrassing.

After all, Yuzhou's troops are limited, even if all of them are sent out, it will be a drop in the bucket, and it is impossible to really solve the crisis in Luoyang, and once Chen Qian transfers Yuzhou's soldiers and horses, Yiyang's land resistance will inevitably take advantage of the situation, and if Yuzhou is lost, it will be even worse.

But if you stick to Yuzhou and ignore Luoyang, in the end, Luoyang will fall, the Jin Kingdom will perish, the skin will not exist, Mao will be attached, and where Yuzhou will go will become a problem for Chen Qian to consider.

At this time, Lu Kang of Yiyang suddenly sent an envoy to ask to see Chen Qian.

Chen Qian wanted to refuse to see him, but after thinking about it, he still summoned the envoy of Wu to come in.

After the envoy of Wu came in, he presented Lu Kang's letter, and Lu Kang was blunt in the letter, persuading Chen Qian to surrender, and put forward many conditions to Chen Qian, such as sealing the king, stronghold, retaining the army, as long as Chen Qian is willing to surrender to Wu, all treatment is favorable.

Chen Qian did not give a positive or negative reply, but only sent the envoy out very politely.

Chen Qian's son Chen Yu accompanied him throughout the whole process, and after the envoy of Wu State left, he immediately said to Chen Qian: "Father, the destruction of the Jin Kingdom is a foregone conclusion, and we should also make some plans for our own future road." The conditions proposed by Wu Guo this time are very generous, why shouldn't my father think that he is retreating. ”

Chen Qian shook his head and said: "This matter is very important, how can it be decided hastily, as a father, we need to consider it again." ”

Chen Yu said a little anxiously: "Now there are no more than two options, one is to descend to Shu, the other is to descend to Wu, now the Shu people are destroying the Jin, the momentum is booming, if my father thinks that the land of Yuzhou is to descend to Shu, he may not be able to give any good treatment, at best, he will give a marquis a vacant position, and in the future, he will have to rely on people to breathe, and the power of life and death will be in the hands of others." The child thinks that it is not an option to descend to Shu. Now that Shu is strong and Wu is weak, Wu will naturally do whatever it takes to win us over, and the price offered will definitely be expensive. Just this time, Lu Kang sent people to take the initiative to put forward the conditions of keeping the army in the king's stronghold, and if his father asked him for some benefits, the Wu people would inevitably agree. In the future, our Chen family's status in the Wu country is not weak, this is a matter of shadow and descendants, why doesn't my father consider descending to Wu? ”

Chen Qian said: "It's not that my father doesn't want to surrender to Wu, it's just that Fang is down today, Shu is strong and Wu is weak, and my father expects that Shu will be able to swallow Wu in the future, and Wu will not be able to swallow Shu." At this time, even if the treatment is good, but in the future, Wu may be destroyed by Shu, wouldn't it be humiliated. ”

"Father is too worried, Wu now has the risk of the Yangtze River, if he gets the land of Kanto in the future, it is also half of the world in his hands, and he is fully capable of fighting with Shu, why should my father worry about Wu being destroyed by Shu." Chen Yu persuaded.

Chen Qian pondered for a moment and said: "Now in the land of Kanto, in addition to Yuzhou, there are Qingyan Xu Yang, Qingzhou Governor Ma Long, Yangzhou Governor Shi Bao are all princes, this time Lu Kang has the intention to recruit his father, and he will not ignore Ma Long and Shi Bao in the future, and he will definitely send envoys to Qingzhou and Huainan, for his father wants to hear their opinions, after all, this matter is very important, and he will not dare to engage in it recklessly." ”

Chen Yu said: "What my father said is very true, if this is the case, we might as well wait a few more days to see what the attitude of Ma Long Shibao and the two of them is, and it is not too late to make a decision." ”

Chen Qian said: "Judging by their attitude, it is better to take the initiative to invite them to come to Yuzhou and discuss the plan." “

Chen Yu nodded and agreed, and immediately went down to make arrangements, and sent two messengers to Linzi and Shouchun respectively to visit Ma Long and Shi Bao.
