Chapter 136: What Are You Going to Do?
Just when there was turmoil in the temple, the war in Huainan also came to an end.
Sun Jun's original idea was to give Qingzhou assistance in terms of momentum, not to really fight with Biqiu Jian, but to make his position clear, support the rebels remotely, and see if he could get some refugees and reinforcements or something.
He was very confident in this, after all, Jiang Wei had been robbing the population of Wei for many years and fighting the reinforcements of Wei.
Jiang Wei can do it, can't he do it himself?
And the facts told him that it really couldn't be done.
He is not Jiang Wei, he has no combat experience, and his opponent is not Guo Huai, who is seriously ill, and it is not that he has no idea of attacking.
He originally thought that Biqiu Jian should pay attention to the rebellion in Qingzhou, even if he knew that he would have to recruit a large army when he came, it would take at least ten days for the other party to attack.
But he never expected that Biqiu Jian had already made preparations and waited for him to come up and send it.
On the third day of his arrival in Huainan, he encountered the army of Cao Wei who were ready to attack.
It is even a multi-party coalition army, which is composed of the armies of Biqiu Jian, Wen Qin, and Hu Zun.
This caught Sun Jun off guard, but fortunately, Sun Jun ran fast enough, and just when he was hesitating whether to save Liuzan, Liuzan's nephew came and informed the other party that he was determined to fight to the death.
On the one hand, Sun Jun cried about the bravery of General Liu, and on the other hand, he fled with people without looking back.
But Biqiu Jian didn't just let go of his thoughts, he chased and intercepted him everywhere, and didn't treat Sun Jun as a person at all, the morale of the Wu army was completely lost, and in several pursuit battles, in the face of cavalry whose number was far less than his own, he was beaten miserably.
Sun Jun almost ran back to Jiangdong with his tail between his legs.
On this expedition, Dongwu died a Liuzan, and nearly 8,000 soldiers died in Huainan and failed to return.
Standing on the bow of the boat, Sun Jun lowered his head and said nothing.
Lu Ju on the side also had a straight face, his face was sad.
Liuzan is a fierce general of Wu State, and he is his friend, but he didn't expect that he would die in the hands of Cao Thief.
Sun Jun glanced at Lu Ju beside him, and he was even more jealous in his heart.
This time, it was because he insisted on sending troops that he had this end, shouldn't this guy be ready to take his place?
Sun Jun thought about this, and his heart was even more frightened and restless.
After Sun Yi's suicide, Sun Jun's health was not very good, and because of all the things in the country, the failure at the moment, and the fear of Lu Ju, his condition began to deteriorate rapidly, and he was restless.
When Sun Jun returned to Wu, Quan Shang personally brought his ministers to greet him.
They obviously already knew about the situation of this battle.
However, they didn't blame Sun Jun, as Zhong Hui said, once a person dies and has no interests, then no one cares.
If one day the ministers need to deal with Sun Jun, maybe Liuzan will be mentioned by them crying.
But at the moment, Sun Jun is still the general who has a good relationship with them, and Liuzan, who died fighting for the country, can naturally only be thrown aside, and cannot affect the harmony in the temple.
Quan Shang took Sun Jun's hand, "The general's departure this time is due to Sheji, and we will come to greet you in person!" ”
The ministers also gave face and bowed one after another.
It's not that Quan Shang is humiliating Sun Jun, this is a normal greeting language, but for some reason, Sun Jun feels ashamed and indignant at the moment, and he can't speak.
probably saw that the general was not in a good state, Quan Shang and the others hurriedly ended the greeting ceremony, and Sun Jun led everyone into Jianye.
After entering the General's Mansion, Sun Jun did not greet everyone, changed his clothes, and ran directly to Princess Quan's mansion.
In front of Sun Luban, Sun Jun seemed to be a different person.
"Princess, I'm incompetent, this defeat is all because of me."
Sun Jun lowered his head, tears shining in his eyes.
Sun Luban frowned, his expression was very solemn.
"That Liuzan has been a veteran for many years, when my father was still alive, he was a general who could be relied on, and now he is dead in your hands!!"
Sun Jun lowered his head and pleaded guilty again.
Sun Luban had a heart attack, but when he saw Sun Jun's pitiful appearance, he had no choice but to give up.
"Anyway, I won't pursue it this time, and I won't be arbitrary in the future."
Sun Jun hurriedly said: "Princess Quan, the current situation has deteriorated to the point where you can't be unprepared. ”
"Although I have not served as the chief general in the past, but I have some understanding of the Cao thief, this time, the morale of the Cao thief army is extremely high, the generals fully cooperated, we can't stop it at all, Qingzhou raised troops, it was actually pacified within a month, and there were no displaced people. ”
"The little emperor of the Cao thief is really not to be taken lightly."
"After he became pro-government, he defeated Jiang Wei first, and now he has defeated us again, in a short period of time, Cao Wei has undergone such a huge change, the soldiers are not afraid of death, and the local officials actually know that to pacify the people, there are no displaced people in a state rebellion, which is really unbelievable."
"I now know why Jiang Wei took the initiative to send the minister to us."

"I think that the current king of Cao Thief is definitely not comparable to Cao Fang, this is a character like Cao Cao and Cao Pi!"
"If our two countries can't form an alliance and deal with a strong enemy together, I'm afraid that we will be broken by them, and there will be a catastrophe!"
Hearing Sun Jun's words, Sun Luban was very surprised.
"I heard that the little emperor of Wei was supported by Sima Shi and others, but he was only more than ten years old, how could he have such ability?"
Sun Jun couldn't help but scold his mother at the moment.
"That Sima Shi is very hidden, I always thought he was a traitor like Cao Cao, but now it seems that he is a person who is stupid and loyal to Cao Cao, otherwise why would he support such an emperor? I've heard that Sima Shi's subordinates are doing their best to assist that emperor."
Princess Quan was silent for a moment, "Then what should we do?" ”
"It should be an alliance with Shu, and now we can't send troops to attack Cao Thief, but the two sides can only form an alliance with each other and use more troops to guard against Cao Thief, then the little emperor will definitely send troops to fight, and when the time comes, we will help each other and let them return in vain."
Sun Jun spoke of the many benefits of the alliance.
But Sun Luban just felt that this was Sun Jun's dream, Shu and Wu, even if they could let go of their prejudices, I was afraid that it would be difficult to form an alliance again.
However, if Sun Jun had to try, then Sun Luban would not say anything.
Sun Jun, who suffered a crushing defeat in Huainan, began to find a way to get in touch with Jiang Wei, who was also suffering.
When Cao Chao himself was not aware of it, the direction of history had changed dramatically
"Your Majesty!!"
He Zeng was taken to the west hall, and he bowed to the emperor very seriously.
Cao Chao squinted his eyes and looked at him, "Father He, I heard that the chefs in your family are very powerful, and all kinds of delicacies are the best in the world, better than the chefs in the palace?" ”
He Zeng's forehead suddenly sweated.
"Your Majesty!! Nothing like that! The minister eats some wheat rice on weekdays, and the cooks at home are all old people who have followed my father."
Obviously, in front of Cao Chao, He Zeng didn't dare to shout that the emperor's food was difficult to swallow as he did in history.
After all, Cao Chao dares to kill.
Listening to He Zeng explain his situation, Cao Chao stretched out his hand and interrupted him.
"He Gong, it doesn't have to be like this."
"I didn't ask you to come here to question these things, you have been in contact with the traitors in the court all these days."
"How's it going?"
He Zeng said without thinking: "Your Majesty, these traitors are really hateful! ”
"They have been thinking all day about how to disadvantage Your Majesty, and this time Your Majesty wants to get rid of the thieves, and they have begun to collude with the ministers and prepare to launch a rebellion."
"Rebellion?"
Cao Chao doesn't seem to be panicked at all, if it is said that in the local area, Cao Chao will be slightly worried, but in Luoyang, do you think that hundreds of thousands of Chinese soldiers are vegetarians? Just one Wen Xiaoniao can kill all of you bastards, and dare to rebel??
Cao Chao asked, "How are they going to rebel?" ”
He Zeng said truthfully: "That's the case, the servant Tao Qiuyi thinks that you can make up Xu Du Xiangrui, let His Majesty go to Xu Du to watch Xiangrui, and on the way, he will lead the local officials to attack you, and then support Cao Fang, the king of Qi, to reclaim the emperor."
"They have not yet informed the ministers of specific things, and the task they gave them is to gather domestic slaves and old ministries to help them through the power of their hometowns."
Hearing He Zeng's words, Cao Chao couldn't help but laugh.
"When did they start plotting?"
"On the day Your Majesty left from the Imperial Tower, Your Majesty's words that you want to govern the world with heavy laws have been rumored, and the ministers are all terrified, they say that Your Majesty is not benevolent, and you must do it as soon as possible, and you can't let Your Majesty destroy Great Wei."
"Ruined?"
Cao Chao is still very calm, this kind of deception of the emperor to come out to see Xiangrui, and then support others halfway, is also the usual means of the ministers, in the late Han Dynasty, Wei and Jin Dynasty, this is not the first time such a thing has happened.
However, Cao Chao didn't expect that the servant Tao Qiuyi, who seemed to be honest and dutiful, and did not participate in the battle of the temple, would have such an idea.
It seems that they are all starting to get scared.
Cao Chao looked at He Zeng, "He Gong, if I don't ask, won't you say anything about this matter?" ”
"Your Majesty!! The minister is wronged!! Your Majesty, please see, this is a recital written by the minister overnight, originally wanted to wait until they learned of their specific plan and then tell Your Majesty, they have not finished the plan, the minister did not dare to come to His Majesty, for fear of arousing their suspicion, the minister will never dare to have the idea of participating, how dare the minister be unfavorable to Your Majesty! ”
He Zeng hurriedly shouted.
Cao Chao nodded, "Okay, I believe in He Gong's character, He Gong, after Zheng Chong served as Sikong, this Yushitai has not been calm, your qualifications are enough to serve as the third duke, if I let you serve as Sikong, replace Zheng Chong, and take charge of Yushitai, how will you deal with these ministers?" ”
He Zeng raised his head suddenly, and he was like a dog that smelled meat.
"Your Majesty, the ministers will exterminate their clan, and the chickens and dogs will not be left, but anyone who dares to murder Your Majesty, no matter who it is, the ministers will never let !! go"
