Chapter 443: Plotting

As soon as Zhong Hui returned to Luoyang, he heard the news that Wang Jing had sent an envoy to Gu Zang, and immediately persuaded Sima Zhao to send someone to intercept him, "Wang Jing is not a confidant of the general, and His Majesty sent him as an envoy at this time, and there may be hidden secrets." ”

"Shi Ji is too worried, the people who are all great generals in the army inside and outside the government and the opposition, does the emperor still want to rely on the western thief to change his life against the sky?" Jia Chong said-for-tat.

What Zhong Hui said was just speculation, but what Jia Chong said was the current situation.

Sima Zhao also shook his hand, "Shi Ji is not in Luoyang, I don't know the inside story, this time the Queen Mother persuaded me to put pressure, I had to take a step back, and this matter ended here." ”

Zhong Hui was stunned for a moment and glanced at Jia Chong.

The persuasion of the ministers is just a temptation, how could the Queen Mother not know?

There is no reason to come forward to put pressure in person, because prestige is a thing, and it will consume one point if you use it once.

Next time, the Queen Mother's pressure will not be so deterrent.

Linking the Queen Mother's abnormal pressure with Wang Jing's envoy Gu Zang on the emperor's orders, Zhong Hui smelled a strange smell.

But at this time, Sima Zhao no longer wanted to dwell on this issue.

Zhong Hui had no choice but to give up, and he also understood that Sima Zhao did not want to fall out with the queen mother and the emperor for the time being.

Although the power is now in the Sima family, no one can say the hidden thoughts in people's hearts.

Therefore, Sima Zhao repeatedly strengthened ties with the scholars, and yesterday the court meeting also proposed to hire the descendants of the former famous ministers and fathers, and to serve in the position.

Since the end of the Wei Dynasty, the rise of the scholars has become a major trend.

Emperor Cao Rong of the Ming Dynasty made a great deal of vanity and derogatory reprimands for the heirs of the nobles, and Sima Shi, Xiahou Xuan, Zhuge Dan, Deng Yang and others were not hired, which curbed the continued growth of the scholars to a certain extent.

Sima Shi took power, directly launched a large-scale killing, rectified the discipline, and reformulated the rules for selecting talents, so that they each had their own duties, the government and the opposition were solemn, and the scholars were suppressed and did not dare to breathe.

When Sima Shi was there, Zhong Hui took the initiative to offer advice, and he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest.

But when it came to Sima Zhao, Zhong Hui seemed to be at ease, and it was usually Sima Zhao who took the initiative to seek advice.

Sima Zhao did not have the courage of his father and brother, and in order to go further, he fully compromised with the Shi clan.

"Shiji, this is the latest battle report of Taiyuan Shijian." Sima Zhao smiled and handed a piece of silk to Zhong Hui.

"On April 13, the minister led 3,000 soldiers, Lou annoyed with the Xianbei tribes, fought in the east of Fenshui, broke the enemy, beheaded 500, captured more than 1,000 people, got more than 1,000 sheep, horses and miscellaneous animals, and the enemy threw himself into the water and the number of dead is unknown. On the ninth day of the fifth month, the ministers led the armor to join the Xiongnu Yi and rode from 5,000 steps, and defeated the western thief Liu Heng in the wolf, killing 271 enemies and capturing 500 ...... On May 11, he defeated the Western Thief Horse Circulation Department under the city of Taiyuan......"

The more Zhong Hui looked at it, the more surprised he became, and directly looked at the signature, and the signature was the history of the state thorn Shijian.

It is an indisputable fact that the soldiers of Xiliang are brave and good at fighting.

Especially after Yang Zheng seized Liangzhou, he broke the army and killed the generals, and Guo Huai, Hu Fen, Deng Ai and other Yongliang generals all died at his hands.

This Shijian actually relied only on the state and county soldiers, not only blocking the raid of Qianghu Xianbei, but also defeating the attack of the Xiliang cavalry?

The total number of beheadings before and after is almost a thousand.

But soon, Zhong Hui saw the clues, Lou Fu, Wolf Tune, Taiyuan City......

Since it is a victory, why is it getting closer and closer to Taiyuan City?

Shi Jian is so bold!

Zhong Hui gasped in his heart, but seeing that Sima Zhao was on the rise, he didn't dare to expose it directly.

Shi Jian is also a force, although he was born in a humble background, but he was known as a celebrity early on, and Shantao and He Zeng were friends, and he was the loyal dog of the Sima family.

Today's Sima Zhao and Yang Zheng both need celebrities to support their platforms and increase legitimacy.

The power of public opinion in this era is in the hands of celebrities.

The matter of killing good people and lying about their achievements is nothing new in the Wei State.

At that time, Wen Qin also relied on this to ask Cao Shuang for credit, so he offended his boss Wang Ling and Zhuge Dan.

This has happened repeatedly.

"Haha, Shi Ji thinks there is something untrue in it?" Of course, Sima Zhao is not so good.

Zhong Hui laughed dryly, "Shi Envoy Jun Xiang has the style of a famous man, but I didn't think that there was a strategy in my chest." ”

"Ten days ago, Shi Linbo had sent human heads, war horses, and ordnance into Luoyang, and Gong Cao personally inspected it, and its banners, weapons, and armor were indeed produced in Liangzhou, and there was no doubt about it." Jia Chong also echoed a few words.

Zhong Hui was stunned, could it be that this Shijian is really a general?

"I don't know who is the general in Yanmen?" Zhong Hui felt that he had only been away for a month, and many things in Luoyang had changed.

Jia Chong and Sima Zhao's relationship seems to be getting closer and closer.

The emperor and the queen mother are also incomprehensible, and the situation in Bingzhou is also a little weird.

"I heard that it is an unknown general named Zhou Yu." Jia Chong said disapprenosingly.

In the Liangzhou army, the generals who can recruit accustomed to war, except for Yang Zheng, are more famous for Du Pre.

Others are not well-known in the Central Plains.

Zhong Hui thought about it for a moment, and then he didn't pay attention to it.

At the moment, he is more concerned about the situation in the DPRK and China.

Yanmen County Governance Office Guangwu.

This place is only fifteen miles away from Daijun and more than ninety miles away from Changchuan.

Therefore, if you want to gain a foothold in Yanmen, you must have a good relationship with the head of the Daijun Suo.

"That Shi Jian is a mediocre talent, why did the gentleman defeat him several times? Could it be a ploy of arrogance? Sun Yang was puzzled.

Against a strong opponent, you need to be arrogant and lead them to make mistakes.

But Shi Jian was a long way from being strong, and Sun Yang even felt that the Liangzhou army, with the advantage of cavalry, had every chance to kill this person.

In several small battles, the Liangzhou army lost its armor under the banner of Liu Heng and Ma Xun, and also sent a lot of Qianghu heads.

"A certain person was also an official in the imperial court back then, didn't he know that Shi Jiantu had a false name? Sima Zhao's generals, this person is the second, if he is defeated today, Sima Zhao will recall him to return to the dynasty and transfer Chen Tai, Wang Chang and other heavy generals to come, and it is difficult to do a certain plan in Taiyuan! If you want to abolish it, you will fix it; If you want to take it, you will give it to it, send him a few times, the ambition of the proud stone, the heart of Sima Zhao, kill two birds with one stone, why not? Wei Qian smiled sneeringly.

At present, the Eastern Wu army was defeated in Shouchun, the Wu army was weak, Sun Qi beheaded the general Zhu Yi, and the country was in turmoil.

Within a few years, the Northern Expedition was powerless.

There is a rare tranquility on both sides of the Yangtze River.

Wang Chang, Chen Qian, Shi Bao, Zhou Tai and other generals can be completely withdrawn.

There is also Chen Tai above the court.

In his early years, this person served as the general of the Xiongnu Zhonglang who was the assassin of the state and the Huns, and was quite prestigious among the Xianbei and Huns.

Its capabilities speak for themselves.

If he moves north, Yanmen will not be good.

Every time he saw such a smile, Sun Yang felt cold on the soles of his feet.

This time, after Wei Qian entered the Yanmen, he immediately covered up his tracks, and only saw the guard Zhou Yu outside, but he didn't know that Wei Qian was among them.

"Sir, clever!" Sun Yang secretly mourned for Shi Jian.

Wei Qian laughed lightly, "This is only the first step, the second step, it is time for you Xuanyi Division to cooperate with the people of the Nine Camps." ”

"Please sir teach me." Sun Yang was respectful.

"Send someone to sneak into Taiyuan to secretly approach Tang Zhi, Quanduan and other generals, send more gold, silver, money, and silk, and don't say anything."

"My subordinates understand!"
