Chapter 751: Xiangyang
"Zhong Thief has such a big appetite!" Sima Yan said angrily.
In the minds of Luoyang Junchen, Zhong Hui is already a "thief" who can be ranked with Yang thief.
He Shao arched his hand and said: "The minister thinks that even if he can't talk, he can drag it out and get through this time!" ”
Indeed, after the Battle of Hedong, the Qin army took a hard bite in the Central Plains.
The morale of the Jin Kingdom was low and the people's hearts were in turmoil.
At present, we can no longer afford the battle of Hefei or the battle of Xiangyang.
The key is that as soon as Wu Guo moves, Qin State will definitely take advantage of the fire to rob.
Zhong Hui was sure that Sima Yan didn't dare to move lightly now, so he opened his mouth.
Shouchun will definitely not give it, giving Shouchun is equivalent to giving it to Huainan, at that time, Huaixi and Huaibei will be under the watchful eye of Wu Jun, where else can the Sima family retreat?
With Zhonghui's ambition, of course, he will not give up and stop at Huainan.
"Zhong will be ambitious, and it may not give us time." The one who knows Zhonghui the most, of course, is the "old friend" Jia Chong.
He Zeng said: "Your Majesty may send Sun Hao back to Jiangdong, so that he will mess up for a while!" ”
Sun Hao is the pinnacle of Sima Yan's life and the capital he shows off.
How can it be easily released?
Jia Chong shook his head, "Zhong Hui has already controlled Jianye, even if it is released to Sun Hao, it will have little impact on the Wu State, and it is very likely that it will become a pawn of Zhong Hui to balance the Jiangdong Shi clan." ”
"Oh? Could it be that Your Excellency has a clever plan to solve the current crisis? He Zeng glanced at Jia Chong.
He Zeng is also a celebrity, and he has a very personal relationship with Shi Jian, Shi Jian is dead, and He Zeng naturally looks at Jia Chong unpleasantly.
Jia Chong's triangular eye bones turned around, and he arched his hand towards Sima Yan and said, "The strong man broke his wrist!" ”
Sima Yan frowned, the things behind these four words are definitely not simple, "Gonglu can be said!" ”
"Your Majesty, do you know about the battle of the party?" Jia Chong's triangular eyes were shining again.
Sima Yan nodded, "Tyrannical Qin covets the party, and the parties above South Korea vote for Zhao, which leads to the Zhao Qin War!" Does Gonglu mean that Xiangyang will trigger the Qin-Wu War? ”
"Your Majesty is wise!" Jia Chong hurriedly got into a hot fart, "Now that Xiangyang has become an enclave, if it is not taken by the Qin thieves, it will be attacked by the Wu people, it is better to make Yanghu sacrifice and Lu Kang, which can lead to a tripartite dispute between Zhonghui, Lu Kang, and Qin thieves, first, to attract the attention of the Qin State, and secondly, the war between the Wu State and the Qin army needs to be borrowed from me, and the alliance can be achieved." ”
"Xiangyang ......" Sima Yan felt a pain in his flesh.
But if you don't give up Xiangyang, do you want to exchange Huainan?
Once Zhong Hui really leads troops north, it will not be a problem for Xiangyang.
Among them, Sima Yan knows the trade-offs.
In a short period of time, the Central Plains could only defend, and there was no strength to recover the old land.
The defeat of hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops in Luoyang was the weakest time.
Sima Yan is extremely nostalgic for the period when he was an army of 200,000 as soon as he made a move.
Now it's stretched.
"A Xiangyang can at least buy two years for Your Majesty, Your Majesty should cheer up, first quell the civil strife, and then train the soldiers, and form a foreign alliance with Eastern Wu, with the solidity of the Central Plains, enough to confront the Qin thieves, ten or twenty years later, who can know the affairs of the world?" Jia Chong said sincerely.
If Sima Yan was willing to listen to him at the beginning, hundreds of thousands of troops would enter the pass, even if he couldn't defeat it, the Qin State would inevitably go to half his life.
It's a pity that the advice is contrary to the ear.
Sima Yan was a little anxious for quick success.
Of course, the most hateful thing is Pang Hui and Shi Jian's two thieves, if it weren't for their repeated sideways jumps and creating all kinds of illusions, Sima Yan might not have taken this step.
"Uncle Yang...... It's a pity. Sima Yan said abruptly.
Jia Chong was secretly happy.
A potential competitor is just strangled in the cradle.
Yanghu's name is too famous, his background is noble, he has been famous since Sima Yi's time, and he has high hopes for Sima Zhao.
However, in today's Jin Kingdom, there is no one who cannot give up.
He Zeng said: "Since Your Majesty pities Yanghu's talent, you can adjust him to return to Luoyang." ”
Jia Chong hurriedly said: "No, if there is no Uncle Yang, who can provoke the war between Qin and Wu?" ”
Sima Yan just felt that it was a pity, and if he said that he attached great importance to Yanghu, it was not necessarily true.
In the Luoyang court, there is not a single Yanghu.
What's more, in the Battle of Xiling, Yanghu had already disappointed Sima Yan once.
Its ability is not to lead troops in battle.
And now what Sima Yan lacks most is the talent of a general.
"Uncle Yang is a national soldier, and he will be loyal to the country." Sima Yan's words decided Yanghu's fate.
He Zeng took a deep breath, arched his hand, and didn't insist anymore......
Jingzhou has long had an undercurrent.
To the south of Xiangyang, Lu Kang fought hard in Jiangling.
To the north of Xiangyang, Du pre-looked at Xinye.
Yanghu was actually in a desperate situation, even if Sima Yan really issued an edict to let him return to Luoyang, he would not be able to leave.
The Eastern Wu naval army galloped in the Han River, cutting off the route of Yanghu's escape to the east.
Du pre-blocked Xinye and cut off the way for Yanghu to flee north.
However, among the three parties, the first to receive the edict was Lu Kang.
After all, Gangneung is the closest to Jianye.
The edict was issued in the name of Emperor Sun Jin, but between the lines, Zhong Hui's tone was everywhere, and the edict itself was written by Zhong Hui.
"Xiangyang is the gateway to Jiangdong, and it must not fall into the hands of the Qin people, otherwise the country is in danger, and the general is the pillar of the country, and he should fight to the death for the country!"
The word "death" cast a haze on Lu Kang's heart.
He knew exactly what Zhong Hui meant.
It's just a matter of consuming oneself by the hands of the sheep.
Yanghu's offense is insufficient, but his defense is more than enough.
In the past few years, Xiangyang has long been turned into a fortress, full of passes, dock forts, and city fortresses.
And Xiangyang is a fortified city, with tens of thousands of defenders.
If defeated, Lu Kang's reputation for so many years will be gone, and he will have no confidence in front of Zhong Hui, who else will be able to balance Zhong Hui at that time?
On the surface, it is a competition for Xiangyang, but in fact, it is a competition for the future power of Wu State.
However, even so, Xiangyang must not be attacked.
Once it is taken by the Qin army, the army of Guanzhong will go south, and the army of Shuzhong will go east, can Jingzhou still hold it?
Zhonghui was upright every step, and Lu Kang knew that it was a pit, so he wanted to jump in.
For the future of Koto.
Wu State Lu Kang, Zhong Hui, Qin State Du Pre, Luo Xian, Jin State Yanghu, the three kingdoms of the stars all gathered in Jingzhou.
"I heard that Du Yu is a famous general in the world, and the Qin army is invincible in the world, I don't know if it can defeat my Jiangdong naval army?" Wuyan said confidently.
Zuo Yi sneered, "The northerners are good at horses, the southerners are good at boats, the Qin army went south to Jianghan to compete with me, and they killed themselves!" ”
The morale of the Wu army in Gangneung was generally relatively high.
After all, their commander, Lu Kang, had already created a miracle.
Lu Kangwen said: "Don't underestimate the enemy, our enemy is not only the Qin people, Du pre-use soldiers have the atmosphere of a king's division, and Yanghu should not be underestimated, although defeated by my hands, but his people are good at winning people's hearts, and the people of Xiangyang will fight to the death!" ”
In the north of Xiangyang City, the Han River goes east.
The Yellow River in the north often freezes, but the Han River and the Yangtze River rarely freeze in the south, so it is called the moat.
At this moment, Yanghu is fishing on the south bank of the Han River.
However, the fish had already taken the bait and pulled the rod, but Yanghu seemed to be unconscious.
His mind had long since returned to the edict he had just received.
The Luoyang court had abandoned him.
Sima Yan wrote a lot of touching words, but it still made Yanghu feel a biting chill.
"Governor, it's not too early!" Xu Yin said softly behind his back.
Yanghu sighed and threw the fishing rod into the Han water, "Go back!" ”
