The war is over.

But only temporarily.

"Guo Huai will not let go of so-and-so, and the Sima family will not let go of so-and-so." Xiahou Ba said in a sluggish spirit.

The edict of the imperial court is always a sword hanging over the head.

Now it's a recall, and the next time it's a direct recall, Xiahouba, the general of Wei and the history of Qinzhou's assassination, will come to an end.

Without these official titles, will Jincheng and Longxi Zhuzhu listen to his orders?

He Hui's betrayal not only hurt his people, but also hurt his confidence.

And several other generals all have deep backgrounds.

Even if Xiahou Ba wanted to rebel, these people might not follow.

Yang Zheng was secretly vigilant in his heart, fortunately he had been prepared, the generals of Xiping were either pulled up from the bottom, or they had an alliance of in-laws, and after a few big battles, they were obedient to Yang Zheng.

"Sima Yi is reckless, upholding the government, the reckless ambition has been revealed, the general is the suzerain of the Xiahou clan, the national noble, is the pillar of the Great Wei, can secretly contact the loyal people, form foreign aid, and suppress Luoyang!"

Through this battle, Yang Zheng also saw that there were still many people loyal to Cao Wei.

Sima Yi's road is not so easy to follow.

In fact, if it weren't for Cao Shuang being too anxious and employing people improperly, would Sima Yi have a chance?

Even when it came to the Gaopingling Incident, Cao Shuang took the emperor east to Xuchang and contacted Huainan, did Sima Yi dare to meet the emperor's sword soldiers at the risk of the world's disapproval?

It can only be said that Cao Shuang is stupid, and before Sima Shi made his move, he also killed Cao Shuang's cowardly character of greedy for comfort.

But this world is Cao Wei's after all.

It was Cao Shuang who lost people's hearts, not Cao Wei.

"This strategy is feasible, but the rescue is not urgent, if I guess correctly, the next edict from the imperial court will come soon." Lu Zhi dispelled Yang Zheng's thoughts with a word.

Jincheng is thousands of miles away from Luoyang, and if you want to make a move, you must pass through the defense area of Deng Ai and Guo Huai.

"Please teach me Gong Lu!" Xiahou Ba bowed to Lu Zhi.

Lu Zhi replied, "The general may wish to retreat as an advance, take the first step to ask the court to blame, go to defend the general's emptiness, Xiahou is in Luoyang, the court secretary should have someone to speak out for the general, and Sima Taifu's henchmen are in Yuzhou and Yangzhou Governor Wang Ling, as long as the general guards the fact of Qinzhou's assassination history, you can wait and see what happens." ”

Xiahou Ba stood up with a "ho", and his color changed, "Sima Yi is a national thief, do you want to ask him for guilt?" I'd rather die by the sword! ”

Lu Zhi's face was embarrassed and gave Yang Zheng a look.

Yang Zheng gave Xiahou Zhi another look.

"Uncle, why bother? The eldest husband can bend and stretch, the former hook practice lying on the salary and taste the gall, Han Xin was humiliated by the crotch, and he forbears it for a while, just for the long-term future. Xiahou Zhi earnestly persuaded.

However, Xiahouba's temper came up, and no one could hold it back.

Or maybe he's really discouraged about the future.

"My Xiahou clan is a famous family of Great Wei, my father's generation is a hero, although I Xiahou Ba is incompetent, but I don't dare to humiliate my father's reputation, I bow down to the crotch of the old thief, and laugh for the world! If the husband dies, he will die, so why say more! Xiahou Ba's temper came up, and his hair was all open.

Human character determines fate.

Cao Shuang is like this, Xiahou Xuan is like this, and it seems that Xiahou Ba is the same.

This may be the powerful inertia of history.

Lu Zhi let out a long sigh.

Xiahou Zhi burst into tears and stopped persuading.

Yang Zheng admired Xiahou Ba's backbone a little, in fact, even if Xiahou Ba was willing to bow his head, Sima might not let him go.

Forty is not confused and fifty knows the destiny of heaven, and Xiahou is fifty years old, and he has long seen his life.

Once his temperament is decided, the nine cows will not be able to pull it back.

After speaking generously, he waved his sleeves and turned to leave.

It is useless to persuade again.

Yang Zheng and Xiahou Zhi could only say goodbye to Xiahou Ba and return to Xiping with Lu Zhi.

Maybe it was because of the tiredness of running around for days and being frightened, Xiahou Zhi fell ill.

Yang Zheng was extremely distressed and held him in his arms.

In the cold wind, Xiahou Zhi occasionally sobered up, hugged Yang Zheng tightly, and said in a daze: "Husband, I'm afraid of ......"

Weak like grass shivering in the cold wind.

Yang Zheng was full of pity, and said softly: "The husband is here, no one can hurt you." ”

When I arrived in Poqiang City, I invited a doctor, and it took two or three days to recuperate before gradually getting better.

Wang bought a luxury carriage, and Yang Zheng set foot on the way home again.

But can this home in Xiping be kept?

Along the way, the cold wind was like a knife, whimpering on all sides.

It was as if countless souls were crying.

Yang Zheng couldn't help but be a little upset.

Xiahou Ba went, and there was no one in front to shelter from the wind and rain.

But in this troubled world, the only one you can rely on is yourself.

As soon as the front foot arrived in the Western Capital, the news of the back foot Yungo came.

The imperial court issued an edict again to summon Xiahou Ba back to Beijing.

Xiahouba still ignored it.

Guo Huai, the governor of Yongliang and Qin, drew his salary from the bottom of the kettle and transferred away thirteen Qinzhou generals such as Huangfu Min and Duan Shi, these generals are all people from Guan You, and their families are either in Tianshui or stable, and they dare not obey orders.

Only a few generals from Xiping and Longxi, such as Guo Dun and Yang Ji, are still on the side of Xiahou Ba.

Guo Huai only moved his mouth and did not move his hands, but Yongzhou assassinated Shi Deng Ai, so he moved his mouth and did not move his mouth, and the dock fort was repaired to the other side of the river, and the scouts wandered outside Yunwu City all day long.

The situation has never been more severe.

The generals of Yongliang, the most loyal to the Sima clan is not Guo Huai, but Deng Ai.

The roof leak happened to rain overnight.

With such a big change in Cao Wei, it is impossible for the Shu people not to receive the news.

Jiang Wei suddenly sent troops from the bar, 7,000 tiger infantry troops, plus Bai Huwen's 4,000 Hu cavalry, stormed Lintao, Longxi Taishou Guo Dun led the troops to resist, defeated Jiang Wei, 20,000 Longxi army that had just been formed for less than a year was crushed at a touch, and Guo Dun himself was captured.

The Shu army was booming and rushed straight to Di Dao.

Xiahou Ba personally raised troops to defend Di Dao.

A strong city, heavily defended, Jiang Wei plundered Longxi, destroyed Tuntian, entered a no-man's land in Longxi, and moved 4,000 Han and Qiang households into Shu.

In the past, Longxi belonged to Yongzhou, but now it is separated into a Qinzhou, and the power and responsibility are also dispersed.

Moreover, Jiang Wei's Northern Expedition of more than 10,000 people was obviously predatory.

Deng Ai watched from the wall.

Guo Huai also saw Xiahou Ba's joke and sent reinforcements, but instead of supporting Di Dao, he stationed in the barrier city.

Yang Zheng led 8,000 light horsemen to come, detoured to Caohan, and copied Jiang Wei's back road.

Jiang Wei saw that he had received it, and led the troops back to the middle of the river.

Although the Shu army retreated, it would be a fact that Qinzhou lost troops, and it should be reported to the imperial court.

For Xiahouba and Yang Zheng, it was even worse.

A bonfire was lit in the camp.

The two of them put wine on the water.

There are more and more hoarfrost on Xiahouba's temples, and he looks more haggard.

"Lao Ji is in wait, and his ambition is thousands of miles; The martyrs are in their twilight years, and their hearts are strong! Xiahou Ba chanted Wei Wu's verses to Taoshui.

There is a strong heart in the poem, but after Xiahou Ba's mouth comes out, only the twilight of the martyr remains.

Bleak and bitter.

Yang Zheng was a little uncomfortable listening to it.

Xiahou Ba didn't know it, maybe he did it on purpose, "If you and I were born in Wei Wu, we should be national generals!" ”

Yang Zheng secretly rolled his eyes, you are sure of the general, but you are not necessarily.

And Xiahou Ba is also a general now.

General Wei is in the same column as the hussar general and the chariot general.

Only under the Great General.

Xiahouba's emotion became more and more, "I joined the army in the fifteenth year, fought for the country for more than 30 years, and saw that the country of the Great Wei Dynasty was not as good as day by day, and today I am so embarrassed, and I have no face to see my ancestors and ancestors." ”

The more Yang Zheng listened, the more wrong he became, "There is still something to be done, and there are many people who are loyal to Great Wei in the Quartet......"

Xiahou Ba interrupted with a wave of his hand, "Xingyun was born in the military, I don't know the virtue of these scholars, they are only loyal to themselves, Emperor Wen is the Han Dynasty, and he opened the Nine Grades Official Law, in order to get the support of the scholars, the Han Dynasty has been in the world for four hundred years, and they can't accept their hearts, not to mention that I have only been in the country for less than 30 years?" ”

Yang Zheng couldn't help but look at Xiahou Ba with admiration, it turned out that he was thinking so deeply.

"Sima Yi Tomb Tiger enters the mausoleum, my Great Wei is finished."
