Chapter 342 Huainan
In the first month of the second year of Zhengyuan, there was a comet tens of feet high, starting at the point of Wu and Chu, and reaching the sky in the northwest.

——"Three Kingdoms Wei Shu Wang Wuqiu Zhuge Deng Zhong Biography"

Guan Qiujian and Wen Qin were overjoyed when they saw the sky like this, thinking that it should be for themselves, they raised their troops.

The news of Guo Huai's defeat and Wuwei's fall also spread back to Luoyang one after another.

Things were in turmoil, and everyone in the room was shocked.

Guo Huaifei is an ordinary person, with the highest seniority and the most prestigious reputation among the four governors.

Sima Shi looked at the news with a complicated expression.

On the one hand, the hidden dangers from Guanzhong are gone.

The entire Guanzhong has been integrated in this way.

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

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

Among the states and counties in the world, except for Huainan who refused to accept the Sima family, the rest is Liangzhou.

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

Sima Shi was wearing a black eyepatch over his left eye. At the end of last year, the imperial physician Wang Xi and others consulted to remove 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.

In many cases, the rage is actually pretending to be seen by outsiders.

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

The green pines couldn't bear the snow and fell to the ground rustlingly.

"Yang Zheng is still three steps away from becoming powerful." Zhong Hui bowed and stood behind him.

"Which three steps?"

"First, Xianbei Xiongnu Qianghu, second, Shijia Haoyou, third, Zhangye Jiuquan Dunhuang Western Regions, these three steps are actually not easy to walk, Hu Fen didn't even take the first step, even if Yang Zheng is very talented, It will take at least six or seven years, six or seven years, can't the general still be able to pacify the Central Plains?" Zhong Hui will always say what Master Sima most wants to hear.

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

Sima Shi repeatedly wanted to give Zhong Hui important positions, but Zhong Hui refused, preferring to stay by Sima Shi's side as an aide.

"Shi Ji's words won my heart, and if I seek peace, Wu Qiujian will personally raise 50 troops to sweep Hexi!" Sima Shi turned around, his right eye was extremely bright, "So Shi Ji thinks, who will guard Chang'an and clean up the mess? "

"It must be the captain."

There are still Chen Tai, Xu Yun and others in the court, and they can also appoint one party, especially Chen Tai, who is the best in literature and martial arts, but Sima Shi dare not use it.

Only the people of the Sima family are in charge of the army, so they can feel at ease.

However, the Sima family is called Bada, but there are not many people who can stand alone.

Sima Zhao and Sima Wang are both a bit worse.

Only Sima Fu has the highest reputation, mature and prudent, generous, won the hearts of his subordinates, and has experience in commanding troops in combat.

In fact, without Sima Fu's full support, Sima Shi's position would not be secure.

"Can!"

"In addition, Yang Zheng, who was born as a domestic slave and was not rich or honored, is now successful. He can enter him as a marquis of a pavilion, appreciate treasures and treasures to make his aspirations proud, give dancers, musicians and actors to fall into his heart, and then reward him with gold and silver. All of them." Zhong Hui's eyes flickered.

Sima Shi smiled slightly, "What a Zhong Shiji, but he's still a bit petty."

"Oh? What is the general's opinion?"

"Change his title to General Conquering Shu." Sima Shi said.

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

But Sima Shi didn't nod his head.

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

Since then, the righteousness of the court has become invalid for him.

If the Sima Division leads the army to attack Xiping now, it is necessary to do so, but there are more urgent things than Xiping right now.

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

Master Sima chuckled a few times, and his face sank again, "Guanqiujian built an altar in Shouchun, under the guise of the Queen Mother, raised [-] troops, and gathered [-] elite Wenqin, and attacked me with eleven major crimes. also."

This is why Master Sima defaulted to Yang Zheng's occupation of Wuwei.

Huainan Wuqiu Jian is more threatening than Yang Zheng, and Sima Shi 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 his troops, corrected the Queen Mother Guo's edict, and spread the "Crime Sima Shibiao" to the world, calling on people with lofty ideals to punish Sima Shi together.

Compared with Wang Ling's support of Cao Biao, the king of Chu, Guanqiu Jian was more clever. He only punished Sima Shi, and the rest of the Sima family did not intervene.

"Di Zhao, loyal, magnanimous, kind and loving, has the degree of a gentleman of the world, loyal to the country, and is not the same as the teacher. The ministers are protected by broken heads, and they can guide the saints on behalf of the teachers. Tai Weifu is loyal and filial, careful, He should be favored by relatives and be bestowed with a guardian. The guards are often served by scattered cavalry, loyal to their fathers and relatives, and they can be regarded as capable when they are officials.

He wanted Sima Zhao to replace the Sima division, and Sima Fu to control the military power in Luoyang.

Maximize the unity of all forces that can be united.

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

Guanqiu Jian has always been straightforward in his military operations, and he is good at fighting to the death, winning more with less.This was the case in the battle of Goguryeo that year, when [-] infantry cavalry came out of Xuantu, took the initiative to attack, defeated the elite Goguryeo, and killed more than [-] soldiers.

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

"When Guanqiu Jian comes here, he will definitely become a great general! In the first battle of Dongxing, Huainan's elite was wiped out. In less than two years since he took office, Guanqiu Jian has [-] troops, only more than [-] Huaibei elite, and the rest are Huainan farmers. , How can we fight against the Luoyang elite? The only one to worry about is Wenqin. However, Wenqin is a vulgar warrior, and it is not difficult to defeat him. " Zhong Hui laughed.

Master Sima nodded slightly.

Cut Xia Houxuan, Li Feng and others in half, kill the empress and abolish the emperor, then attack Guanqiu Jian and Wen Qin, and sweep away all obstacles of the Sima family, all in one go.

After the two discussed, Sima Shi immediately went to court.

Sure enough, the focus of the DPRK and China's attention is still on Huainan.

With Guanqiu Jian and Wen Qin, an army of [-] went straight to Luoyang, Xuchang, and sent hostages to Wu, inviting Wu to send troops together.

At that time, the state of Wu had just experienced the defeat of Xincheng, the national power was empty, the army and the people were weary of war, Zhuge Ke died, and Sun Jun had just taken power. He absorbed Zhuge Ke's lessons, stood still and watched the Central Plains War.

Sima Shi listened to the suggestions of Wang Su, Fu Gu, Zheng Mao and others, ordered Chen Qian to stick to Lejia, blocked Guanqiu Jian's route to Yanzhou and Hebei, ordered Zhuge Dan to lead the army of Yuzhou out of Ancheng, and Hu Zun led the army of Qingxu out of Ancheng. Xiapi and Wang Chang led Jingzhou's army out of Xinye to attack Wuqiu Jian from north to south and west to west.

Before dispatching troops, all the family members of Guanqiu Jian and Wenqin Luoyang were beheaded.

The Central Plains War kicked off.

Guanqiu Jian Wenqin had 24 troops, and Sima Shi, Wang Chang, Hu Zun, Chen Qian, and Zhuge Dan had a total of [-] troops.

If you count Yang Zheng's battle with Guo Huai and Deng Ai's battle of Yuyin, the largest war in the Three Kingdoms is already the civil war between Cao and Wei.

Guan Qiujian faced the overwhelming force of Mount Tai, but stopped at Xiangcheng.

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

History and fate seem to repeat themselves.
