Chapter 131: The War Resumes and the World Repeats (1)
Chang'an City, although it has been ravaged several times, but this ancient city, the heritage is still profound, as the center of the Guanzhong Plain, this city is still a large city in the world.
Guanzhong Governor's Mansion, outside the wide hall, there was silence, and the guards walked slowly back and forth along the corridor, their eyes patrolling the surroundings.
In front, there are soldiers who are well-dressed and carefully guarded, indicating that this is a military place.
I don't know how many times, the messenger sent from Luoyi has arrived again.
The guards outside the hall had serious faces, but their ears were listening to the movement inside, and sure enough, it didn't take long for a person to be pushed out in embarrassment.
Even so, the messenger was still roaring: "Please tell Zhong Dudu, if he does this again, it will inevitably bring a catastrophe to the Zhong family, please don't think that I am alarmist, what I said is kind advice, if Zhong Dudu still insists on going his own way, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
"If you are chattering like this, I am afraid that you don't know what the consequences will be, but you will not be able to keep your head." The general who followed behind was obviously impatient, snorted coldly, and said.
The messenger paused and said coldly, "Could it be that you want to kill the messenger?" ”
"No, it wasn't our job to kill the messenger, but I can't guarantee that you won't be attacked by bandits when you leave the city." The general sneered and approached him and whispered.
This move, more than anything else, soon the messenger walked briskly outward with a gloomy face, and said nothing more.
The carriage was parked outside, guarded by a few Wei soldiers who came with Luoyi, in fact, it was just for show, Zhonghui could also be regarded as a generation of famous generals, and it was in his sphere of influence, and the Guanzhong Legion also had 50,000 soldiers, what do you really want to do to the messenger, what role can a few soldiers play?
As soon as the messenger got into the carriage, it quickly moved and quickly disappeared from view.
Rushing towards the direction of the carriage's departure, the general sneered, turned around and returned to the hall.
In the hall, Zhong Hui was lying on the big-backed chair, his expression was gloomy, and his mood was obviously extremely bad.
"People are gone?" Seeing the general walking in from outside, Zhong Hui asked lightly.
"Yes, Governor, let's go!" The general replied respectfully.
"Hmph, the messengers of the Sima clan dare to be so arrogant and deceive me!" This feeling is really unpleasant, and Zhong will grit his teeth and smile.
This smile, on the face at this time, is a little hideous, and the state displays 20,000 troops, Luoyi displays 50,000 troops, and there are reserve legions, and now the Sima clan has gathered 100,000 troops and at least 50,000 alien legions, pointing at Yanhan, and it is also the Guanzhong army that coerced Zhonghui.
Originally, Zhong Hui's will to resist was not strong, even to attack Yan Han, he didn't want to do all the work, he really had the worry of being a meritorious master, the Sima family usurped the throne, for fear that the rest of the family would be the same as his family, Zhong's family background was still above the Sima family, and Zhong Hui only figured it out two years ago.
At that time, after destroying Yan Han, then the Zhong family probably had to be buried with him, so he immediately withdrew his army after being slightly blocked, which caused Yan Han to have a little more vitality, so as to have the current situation.
But no one would have thought that Yan Han would come back to life, rise up brazenly, and seize the three eastern counties and Liangzhou, and really become a confidant.
In the past few months, Sima Yan has sent more than ten messengers, and his tone has become more and more intense, and the army has pressed the border, but it has not convinced him, but has caused the anger in his heart to be irrepressible.
Zhong's home in Yingchuan was closely guarded a year ago, and his eldest brother Zhong Yu was also trapped in Luoyi City, but several nephews were quick to see the opportunity and were not seen.
Zhong Jun was sent as a messenger shortly thereafter to show his sincerity, but Zhong Hui was directly detained in Chang'an.
His eldest brother is already old, and it would be good for the clansmen to watch him, and the Zhong family's sister-in-law would not be in such a dangerous situation.
Zhong Hui originally had the intention of giving up, and was willing to transfer to the state and let Guanzhong out, but Sima Yan did not allow it, and he was forced by the army and coerced by the Zhong clan, but Zhong Hui was unwilling to bow his head.
"If Sima Yan wants to fight, he will fight!" Glancing at Zhong Yi, who was standing in front of him with a respectful expression, Zhong Hui lightly commanded: "Next time there is a messenger, just kill it directly, and you don't have to bring it to me." ”
has been soft for so long, Zhong Hui has also reached the limit, he is still young, and he doesn't want to die yet, if he compromises now, then there is only one way to die.
"The last general obeys!" Zhong Yi immediately responded, and finally didn't have to look at the face of this kind of messenger anymore, came out of the hall, walked into the courtyard, and breathed a few breaths of fresh air.
"How good is this, if you want to fight, you will fight, and if you don't fight, you will stop. It's not complicated, so why think too much? Looking at the gray sky outside, Zhong Yi was in a happy mood, he also knew that he had been captured by Yan Han, and was finally redeemed with a hundred war horses, a hundred oxen, and a hundred sheep.
What's more, Sima Shi has bad intentions, and he is ruthless, his father is seventy or eighty years old, even if he surrenders, Sima Yan may not let go of Zhong, so it is better to fight.
For him who was young and vigorous, such entanglement really confused and annoyed him, and after taking a few steps, he suddenly slapped his head.
"Ah, since my uncle has made up his mind, isn't it too cheap to put this guy back like this just now? I really don't like the faces of these birdmen! ”
Talking to himself, he had come to the front hall, and not far away, there were soldiers, these soldiers were patrolling, and their faces all showed the deep imprints left by the long battle, this is the tooth soldiers trained by Zhong Hui and relied on the pillar stone.
However, the tooth soldiers were whispering:
"These people came all the way to persuade the lord to surrender?"
"No, eleven batches have already come, and it is said that each time it is more arrogant!"
"There must be some reason for this."
"Don't talk nonsense! Gossip is going to cut off your head! These things are not in our control! ”
Zhong Yi heard these words and drank: "Hey, you guys come here!" If you have time to idle here, why don't you go out with me, catch up, and cut that guy. ”
Several tooth soldiers looked at each other and responded: "Yes!" ”
After a while, he followed Zhong Yi to turn over and get on the horse, and galloped out with Zhong Yi in his arms.
At this time, outside the city, the messenger was also full of anger: "This traitor still doesn't know the current affairs, and he refuses to obey his strengths, so he must give King Jin a good talk when he goes back." "Wenxin School
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but grit my teeth.
At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves came from behind him, and he frowned: "What's the matter...... Has this traitor changed his mind? ”
Then the sound of horses' hooves became clearer and clearer, but the soldiers escorting them sensed a certain aura, their faces changed, and the messenger became more and more frowning: "Stop and see, what is going on?" ”
Before he finished speaking, he saw that more than a dozen horsemen had rushed in front of him, led by Zhong Yi, who sent him out, who was looking at him with a sneer on his face at this time.
There was a stir in the messenger's chest, but he was a smart man, and he smelled a bad breath, so he asked pretendically: "What are you doing here, aren't you afraid that Zhong Shuai will blame?" ”
Zhong Yi looked at him at this time and smiled, turned over and dismounted, only to hear the sound of "scandium", drew his sword, the blade of the sword flashed in the sun, he acted like this, and suddenly made the messenger shudder, and exclaimed: "What do you want to do?" …… Don't cut ......"
Before the words fell, I saw Zhong Yi step forward, and stabbed the sword violently, and with a "poof", the blade of the sword slammed through the messenger's stomach and passed through the back.
skillfully drew his sword, blood splashed, only to hear Zhong Yi say: "What kind of birdman, so arrogant, Lao Tzu has endured it for a long time, let you know what it means to be cold!" ”
The messenger rolled on the ground, and his hand was raised desperately, but he could not speak, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he died of exhaustion.
The mansion of the King of Jin in Luoyi City has a killing intent that is raging.
"Damn it." Staring at the corpse lying in front of him, Sima Yan's patience finally snapped.
Sima Zhao's physical pain has reached the limit, it can be said that time is running out, and now everything has been transferred to Sima Yan's hands, and the first thing he dealt with was Zhong Hui's affairs, originally Sima Zhao had already deliberately compromised, and was ready to let Zhong Hui transfer to Youzhou.
Zhong Hui was also involved in the killing of the noble townsman, and he and the Cao family could not be separated, but before this matter was completed, he was already half paralyzed and could only be handed over to Sima Yan to do.
Sima is also not as good as the generation, Sima Zhao is not as good as his brother Sima Shi, Sima Yan is not as good as Sima Zhao, Sima Yan was also obedient, and in order to show his sincerity, he sent Zhong Jun as a messenger, but he didn't expect that Zhong Jun would not go back, Zhong Hui would bite to death and merge the state, and after two or three rounds of negotiations, Sima Yan couldn't bear it.
First of all, the logistics supply of grain, grass and ordnance was cut off, and Zhong's workshop was sealed, of course, at this time, most of Zhong's workshops had been moved to Guanzhong by Zhong Yuan, Sima Yan had gathered elite soldiers, and the army pressed the border, preparing to use strong troops to subdue Zhong Hui.
Repeated negotiations failed to make Zhong Hui surrender, and this time the other party even killed the messenger he sent, which was equivalent to a slap in the face.
All of a sudden, the killing intent emanating from Sima Yan's body made several of the guards who had been put back tremble and fall to the ground even more.
They weren't like this, Sima Yan couldn't remember what happened to them, and Sima Yan immediately remembered that the people in front of him were the soldiers he sent out to protect the messenger.
They came back with nothing to do, but they brought back a bloody corpse for themselves, it's not that they are very powerful, on the contrary, they killed the messenger, Zhong Yi asked these people to go back with the corpses, this is a demonstration, how can it not make Sima Yan angry?
"Very well, the task that this king has given you is to protect the messenger, and you are not aware of your sin?" Looking at the few people in front of him coldly, Sima Yan's eyes were already narrowed.
This is his habitual behavior before every killing.
When these soldiers saw this, they were already kowtowing like pounding rice, but Sima Yan was too lazy to pay attention to it, and shouted to the people on the left and right: "Drag a few of them down and behead." ”
"No!" Suddenly, more than a dozen attendants pounced, held these people down, and dragged them down.
"Lord, spare your life! Lord Wang, the crime of non-war, I can't stop it! ”
"Lord Wang, please spare our lives, we are willing to atone for our sins on the battlefield!"
The sound of begging for mercy and swearing gradually drifted away, and finally he could not hear it.
Sima Yan didn't even look at it anymore, these people are at best soldiers, cannon fodder to share his anger, and they need to use people, in this world, there are soldiers, so why use them?
"Hmph, since I am self-defeating, then it's no wonder that I don't show affection." His eyes fell on the corpse on the ground again, and Sima Yan never looked at it again.
"Drag this dead body out......" The messenger not only did not bring a satisfactory answer, but disgraced himself, Sima Yan looked at the corpse in disgust, and directly ordered someone to throw it out.
The corpse was dragged down, and he instructed the people on the left and right: "Go, gather all the guards and generals, and let them all go to the hall and wait, this king has something to announce." ”
The throne of the King of Jin has been passed to Sima Yan, but Sima Yan wants to be the emperor more to alleviate that trace of uneasiness, and now in the Wei Kingdom, most of the things are handled in this Jin King's mansion, and the palace is just a place to imprison the Cao family.
"No." When the attendants on the left and right received this order, several of them immediately went out to give orders.
About an hour later, dozens of generals had already arrived in a hurry, and when General Yiying sat down in the conference hall, Sima Yan slowly walked in from outside.
The generals got up in a panic and saluted, but saw Sima Yan sitting on the main seat: "I came to you this time, this king has something to announce here." ”
Sima Yan's gaze swept over the people present, paused for a moment in his tone, and continued: "This king has decided to raise troops immediately, surrender Guanzhong first, and then point the sword at Hanzhong, otherwise, this Yanhan will really prosper again!" ”
"No!" All the people present had already heard about the killing, and they were not surprised by this conclusion, and they all responded to it.
After that, there are point generals and step tasks.
Sima Yan also commanded the troops, and in the past two years, he also sent the war army to subdue the Quartet, and after giving the order, he said: "The generals immediately went back to mobilize troops and horses, and seven days later, the king personally led 50,000 soldiers, and a total of 200,000 soldiers from all sides, according to Guanzhong, Fuliangzhou!" ”
"Yes!" The generals agreed, Yuguan retreated, and Sima Yan unfolded the map, looking at the location of Guanzhong marked above, and for a moment, his eyes fell on Hanzhong and Longxi, which were not far from Guanzhong, revealing a trace of killing intent.
He is not unlearned, and he is also a child of a family who has to be carefully cultivated, compared with his brother Sima You, Sima You is certainly a little more learned, but when it comes to ruthlessness, he is not as good as him.
Otherwise, Sima Zhao would not have let him be the son of King Jin at the beginning, after all, Sima You is the son of Sima Shi, and he is more qualified to inherit the throne of King Jin.
He also understands where the key points in the world are, Hanzhong and Longxi are the key places of Yongliangyi Sanzhou, if you get these two places, then Guanzhong will not be guaranteed, even if Zhonghui has an army of 50,000, if Yanhan completes the army and Liangzhou is pacified, then Guanzhong is also a matter of a war.
It is estimated that the current situation in Liangzhou is half a year, and according to the intelligence of all aspects, the time for Yanhan's entire army to go north again is not far away, so he can't wait any longer, if the Guanzhong occupied by Zhonghui is lost, then the situation in the world will really collapse!
