In the first month of the second year of Zhengyuan, there was a comet of tens of feet, which originated between Wu and Chu and ended up in the northwest.

——"The Biography of Wei Shu Wang Guanqiu, Zhuge Deng Zhong" in "Three Kingdoms"

Guanqiu Jian and Wen Qin were overjoyed when they saw the celestial phenomena. They thought it was appropriate for them and raised troops.

Guo Huai was defeated and died, and news of Wuwei's fall also spread back to Luoyang.

Things were commotion, and everyone in the hall was shocked.

Guo Huaifei is an ordinary person. He is the highest-ranking and most prestigious among the four major governors.

Master Sima looked at the news with a complicated expression.

On the one hand, the hidden danger from Guanzhong is gone.

The entire Guanzhong was integrated in this way.

As long as one important minister is sent to clean up the mess, Guanzhong will be firmly in the hands of the Sima family.

And Deng Ai is still alive, so things are not as bad as they seem.

In all the prefectures and counties in the world, apart from Huainan, which refused to obey the Sima family, the only one left was Liangzhou.

Jiuquan, Zhangye, Dunhuang and Wuji Xiaowei are all veterans of Cao Wei.

Sima Shi had a black patch covering his left eye. At the end of last year, the imperial physician Wang Xi and others consulted and removed the sarcoma, and advised him not to get angry.

Master Sima has always been good at self-cultivation, and he also wants to live a few more years, so he is very restrained.

Many times, the anger is actually pretended to show to outsiders.

"The slaves of the Cao family have become powerful!" Master Sima stood with his hands behind his hands, looking at Chun Xue outside the pavilion.

The green pine could not bear the snow and fell to the ground.

"Yang Zheng still has three steps to go if he wants to become a leader." Zhong Hui stood behind him with a bow.

"Which three steps?"

"The first one is Xianbei Xiongnu Qiang Hu, the second one is Shijiahao You, the third one is Zhangye Jiuquan Dunhuang Western Region. These three steps are actually not easy to take. Hu Fen couldn't even take the first step. Even though Yang Zheng was extremely talented, It will take at least six or seven years. Six or seven years, can't the general still pacify the Central Plains?" Zhong Hui could always tell what Master Sima wanted to hear most.

That's why he is most favored by Master Sima.

Master Sima repeatedly asked Zhong Hui to give him important positions, but Zhong Hui refused, preferring to stay with Master Sima as a staff member.

"Shi Ji's words deeply touched my heart. When I bring peace to Wuqiu Jian, I will personally raise an army of 500,000 and sweep across Hexi!" Sima Shi turned around, his right eye was particularly bright, "Then who does Shi Ji think will guard Chang'an and clean up the mess? ?”

"It has to be a lieutenant."

There are still Chen Tai, Xu Yun and others in the court, and they can also appoint one of them, especially Chen Tai, whose literary skills and military strategy were outstanding for a while, but Sima Shi did not dare to use them.

Only people from the Sima family can control the army, so they can feel at ease.

However, the name of the Sima family is Bada, but in fact there are not many people who can stand alone.

Sima Zhao and Sima Wang were both worse.

Only Sima Fu had the highest reputation. He was mature, prudent, generous, and won the hearts of his subordinates. He also had the experience of leading troops in combat.

In fact, without Sima Fu's strong support, Sima Shi's position would not be stable.

"Can!"

"In addition, Yang Zheng was born as a domestic slave and has never been rich. Now that he has achieved his ambition, he can be promoted to the rank of Pavilion Marquis. He will be rewarded with rare treasures to show his ambition, and he will be given dancing girls, musicians, and performers to win his heart. He will also be rewarded with gold and silver, and he will be rewarded as a sergeant in Xiping. "All of them." Zhong Hui's eyes flickered.

Master Sima smiled slightly and said, "What a great Zhong Shiji, but he is still a bit petty."

"Oh? What do you think, General?"

"Change him to the title of General Conquering Shu." Sima Shi said.

Many courtiers suggested depriving Yang Zheng of all official positions and directly labeling him a treason.

Master Sima never nodded.

It is easy to label him as rebellious, but it also makes Xiping completely out of control.

From then on, the righteousness of the imperial court was no longer valid for him.

If Sima Division now leads the troops to attack Xiping, this is necessary, but there are more urgent matters than Xiping at the moment.

Zhong Hui immediately understood the meaning and quickly flattered him, "The general is wise."

Master Sima chuckled a few times, then his face darkened again, "Guanqiu Jian built an altar in Shouchun, and under the guise of the Queen Mother, he raised 60,000 troops and gathered 20,000 elite Wenqin troops to attack me with 11 major crimes. This is a serious problem for his confidants. also."

This is the reason why Master Sima acquiesced in Yang Zheng's move to occupy Wuwei.

Guanqiu Jian in Huainan is a greater threat than Yang Zheng, so Sima Division must go all out.

Yang Zheng raised troops in Xiping and defeated Guo Huai and Deng Ai, which greatly inspired Huainan.

Guanqiu Jian immediately raised troops to correct the empress dowager Guo's edict and spread the "Charge of Sima Shishi" to the world, calling on people with lofty ideals to kill Sima Shi together.

[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. www. Android and Apple are available. 】

Compared with Wang Ling who supported Cao Biao, the king of Chu, Guanqiu Jian was more clever. He only killed Sima Shi and left the rest of the Sima family alone.

"My younger brother, Zhao, is loyal and tolerant, he is a good scholar, he has the attitude of a noble man, he is loyal to the country, and he is not the same as his master. If the minister's broken head is protected, he can tutor the master on his behalf. Taiwei Fu is loyal and filial, and he is careful. It is appropriate for him to be favored by his relatives and be given the title of Protector. He should be the guardian of the army and the cavalry should always look after him. He should be loyal to the public and his relatives. When he is an official, he should be considered capable. He should serve as a welcome companion. If he has the merit of serving as a guard, he can lead the army..."

He wanted to replace Sima Shi with Sima Zhao and control the military power in Luoyang with Sima Fu.

Unite all forces that can be united to the greatest extent possible.

Of course, what to say after the invasion of Luoyang is another matter.

Guanqiu Jian always used his troops in a straightforward manner, and was good at fighting to the death and defeating many with less. This was the case in the battle with Goguryeo. Ten thousand infantry and cavalry came out of Xuantu and took the initiative to attack. They defeated Goguryeo's elite troops and killed more than 18,000 in formation.

The same is true now. Guanqiu Jian's army is pointing directly at Xuchang and Luoyang.

"When Guanqiu Jian comes here, he will definitely become a great general in martial arts! In the battle of Dongxing, all the elites in Huainan were lost. Less than two years after Guanqiu Jian took office, he had an army of 60,000, but only more than 10,000 elites from Huaibei, and the rest were farmers from Huainan. , How can we fight against the elites of Luoyang? The only one we can worry about is Wen Qin. However, Wen Qin is a crude martial artist, so it is not difficult to defeat him. If Wen Qin is defeated, Guanqiu Jian will be weak and will be surrounded by enemies from all sides, and his defeat is not far away. "Zhong Hui laughed.

Master Sima nodded lightly.

Kill Xiahou Xuan, Li Feng and others in half, kill the queen and depose the emperor, then attack Guanqiu Jian and Wen Qin, and remove all obstacles to the Sima family, all in one go.

After the two discussed it, Master Sima immediately went to court.

Sure enough, the focus of North Korea and China is still on Huainan.

Guanqiu Jian and Wen Qin led an army of 80,000 to attack Xuchang and Luoyang. He also sent protons into Wu and invited Wu to join him in sending troops.

At that time, the Wu State had just experienced the defeat of Xincheng, and its national power was empty. The army and the people were tired of war. Zhuge Ke had died. Sun Jun had just come to power. He absorbed Zhuge Ke's lessons, stood still and watched the battle in the Central Plains.

Sima Shi listened to the suggestions of Wang Su, Fu Gu, Zheng Yu and others, and ordered Chen Qian to defend Lejia, blocking Guanqiu Jian's route north to Yanzhou and Hebei, and ordered Zhuge Dan to lead Yuzhou's army out of Ancheng, and Hu Zun to lead Qingxu's army out of Ancheng. At Xiapi, Wang Chang led the Jingzhou army out of the new field and attacked Guanqiu Jian from the north, south and west. Sima Division raised a hundred thousand troops from the southeast to fight against Guanqiu Jian.

Before sending out troops, Guanqiu Jian was killed and the Luoyang family scrolls of Qin were written.

The Central Plains War begins.

Guanqiu Jianwenqin had 80,000 troops, including Sima Shi, Wang Chang, Hu Zun, Chen Qian, and Zhuge Dan, totaling 240,000 troops.

If you include Yang Zheng, Guo Huai, and Deng Ai's Battle of Man-yin, the largest war in the Three Kingdoms was already the Cao-Wei Civil War.

Guanqiu Jian faced the overwhelming strength of Mount Tai, but he stopped at Xiangcheng.

It was here that Wang Ling asked Sima Yi for coffin nails.
