In the court of Wu State, Lu Kai argued with reason: "Jin and Wu are allies, and their lips are cold, why do you want to betray the alliance?" Once Qin annihilates the Jin, how can Jiangdong have peace? Follow the example of the former Wushu Alliance and resist the strong Qin together, so that Jiangdong can be invincible. ”

The Battle of Hedong also had a huge impact on the state of Wu.

Although the Jin State was strong, its combat power was far inferior to that of the Qin State.

Wu was no match for even Jin, let alone Qin that unified the north.

However, no matter how reasonable Lu Kai said, it is difficult to resonate in the court.

After Yu Yan and Zhu Xuan were destroyed, the other warriors were silent in front of Zhong Hui.

Lu Kai became more and more lonely.

"Da Sima's words are wrong." Zhong Hui first bowed his hand to Sun Jin, the lord of Wu, and then saluted Lu Kai, "Whether I participate in Jiangdong or not, Qin's destruction of Jin is the trend of the times, and the Jin State will perish sooner or later, rather than being thankless and rescue Sima's family, it is better to share food with Qin, Qin will attack Hebei, I will attack the Central Plains, and Qin will defend across the Yellow River, the east-west confrontation will turn into a north-south confrontation, Wu has the advantage of boats and ships, the land is fertile, the grain and grass are sufficient, and the soldiers and armor are complete, which is enough to fight the court!" ”

"What the prime minister said is very true!" Sun Jin clapped his hands and applauded.

"Only the prime minister can compete with the tyrannical Qin for the world!"

"I have a prime minister in Dongwu, why can't I be prosperous?"

Sycophants sounded one after another.

Zhong Hui couldn't help but feel a little fluttery.

Lu Kai said: "It is true that Jiangdong has the benefit of boats and boats, so that the Qin people also have the benefit of iron horses, once our army goes north to the Central Plains, won't it be a sheep into the mouth of a tiger?" ”

"Why does Da Sima grow the ambition of others? I, Jiangdong soldiers, are not under the Qin people! "At the age of the flesh and blood, I am indignant.

Lu Kai glanced around.

His gaze was calm and majestic, and in an instant, the anger around him subsided.

Even the entire hall fell silent.

Lu Kai was not a simple literati, he once went to Zhuya County (now Hainan), won Zhuya and Dan'er two counties, and then beheaded the Lingling Mountain thief Chen Yu and worshiped the general.

dared to admonish Sun Hao directly, and now he is naturally not afraid of Zhonghui.

The tiger is sick and old, but it is still a tiger.

"National affairs, plan and then move, the Three Kingdoms are strong, Jiangdong can be stable, and now take the risk of the Northern Expedition, and compete with the cavalry of the Qin Army in the Central Plains, the wise man is not for it!"

"So the Great Sima thinks that our army will be able to prevent the fall of the Jin Kingdom by supporting the Sima Clan?" Zhong Hui laughed.

After the battle of Hedong, the half-life of the Jin State has gone.

Perdition is only a matter of time.

If you want to reproduce the situation of the Three Kingdoms, you need Liu Bei, Sun Quan, and Zhou Yu to work together.

It's a pity that Sima Yan is not Liu Bei.

Even if Lu Kang can be counted as Zhou Yu, the problem is that the two countries of Jin and Wu cannot be concentric, and the war will not break out in Jingzhou.

Wu Guo's whip is beyond his reach, and no matter how powerful Lu Kang is, it is impossible to stab him in Yecheng, Hebei Province to help the Sima family resist the Qin army.

What's more, the Lu family and Zhong will have an essential contradiction.

Could it be that Wu took the initiative to attack Yong'an?

Of course, it's not that I haven't done it, the tens of thousands of troops in Eastern Wu were blocked by Luo Xian's 2,000 people, and it took a year before and after, and they couldn't advance an inch.

Lu Kai frowned, he was upright by nature, he didn't want to open his eyes and say nonsense, "Even if our army rushes to help, it will be difficult to stop the Qin army from ......"

Zhong Hui's expression was unprecedentedly solemn, "The Qin people are ambitious, there will be a big war between the two countries, at this time, if you don't go north and occupy the Central Plains, do you have to wait for the Qin people to coerce millions of people in the Central Plains and go south to fight Jianghuai?" This is Jiangdong's last chance, yes, in Xiagan, he would rather die with the soldiers, but also fight for a glimmer of life for Jiangdong! ”

The eyes of all in the hall were in awe.

This ambition is comparable to that of Zhuge Wuhou back then.

"I wish I would be the first to charge." Zhou Zhi was moved.

"The prime minister is not afraid of death, so why should we be afraid?" Ding Wendao.

Lu Kai's expression was slightly moved, it would be good if Zhong Hui was really Zhuge Wuhou, but it was a pity that the cat would definitely steal the fish, and the tiger would definitely eat meat.

Zhong Hui can fool everyone, but he can't fool Lu Kai.

In fact, even if Lu Kai opposes it today, he can't stop it at all.

Zhonghui has already set off a momentum and threw the entire Jiangdong to the gambling table.

If you win, the last step of Zhonghui will be logical.

Defeated, Jiangdong was buried for it.

This is the real reason for Lu Kai's dissuasion, even if he takes the Central Plains, what can he do?

It takes a lot of energy from Jiangdong, and it may not be able to hold it.

Zhong Hui said confidently: "Soldiers, treacherous ways, do not depend on the front of the battle. ”

Thinking about it carefully, Zhong Hui has a lot of chips in his hand.

Huainan and Huaibei have his footprints.

Yingchuan also knows it well.

Luoyang guard Wang Jun is still his former subordinate.

Zhonghui's reputation is also thunderous in the Central Plains.

"The old man wishes the prime minister a victory." Lu Kai hid the light in his eyes, and the whole person withered like grass and trees.

And the smile on Zhong Hui's face bloomed like a flower.

He won again.

The Northern Expedition reached an agreement in the state of Wu, and the civil and military forces of the Zhonghui family were in full bloom.

This battle provided them with a smooth path to prosperity, and they could rightfully grasp the power of Wu.

Therefore, in the minds of some people, it is not important whether the Northern Expedition succeeds or not, but it is important to hold power.

"The minister is old, since last year, often sick in bed, lest it delay the country's major affairs, now Your Majesty has the prime minister to supplement the left, the old minister begs the bones, return to the hometown to care for the elderly, I hope Your Majesty is gracious." Lu Kai very consciously surrendered his hand to Sun Jin.

Once a son of heaven and a courtier, Lu Kai did not have the ability to turn the tide.

Sun Jin's gaze turned to Zhong Hui.

Lu Kai felt a burst of sadness inexplicably in his heart.

However, with Jiangdong's consistent style, it is a blessing to be able to retire and retire in retirement.

How many people have been killed?

How many people died inexplicably among the sword soldiers?

"The big war is about to start, it is the time to employ people, can Lu Gongan abandon me?" Zhong Hui persuaded.

But Lu Kai's title changed from "Da Sima" to "Lu Gong", which has already explained Zhong Hui's attitude.

How could Lu Kai not know?

"There are many talents under the Prime Minister's command, why do you need such an old bone? Recently, I can't do my best, and my body and bones are not as good as day by day, and I am honestly afraid. ”

"If Lu Gong goes, won't the people of the world scold me Zhong Hui for being jealous of his ability? There are several famous doctors in my house, and the public can recuperate in Jianye, and listen to the teachings after the victory of the Northern Expedition! "The bell will drip without leakage.

Of course, this is not really concerned about Lu Kai's body, but worried that after Lu Kai leaves Jianye, he will lose his restraint on Lu Kang.

Secondly, the last time the Shi clan Haoqiang uprising was unsuccessful, the key point was that Lu Kai did not participate.

Yu Yan, Zhu Xuan, and Gu Mu are not famous enough.

If Lu Kai and Lu Kang converge, the situation in Jiangdong will be a different scene.

"Duke Lu stayed in Jianye, and there are also famous doctors in the palace." Sun Jin echoed Zhong Huidao, a seven or eight-year-old child, naturally did not see the doorway.

If only Zhong Hui dissuaded, Lu Kai could still argue, but the emperor had spoken, and Lu Kai had to obey if he didn't obey.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Xie ......" Lu Kai's old and deep eyes did not have any emotional waves.
