Chapter 607 Countermeasures
"Qin bandits attacking Hedong?" Sima Zhao's health improved as the weather got warmer, and he looked no different from a normal person.

"The army of Qin thieves assembled towards Linjin, and their scouts once crossed the Yellow River and went deep into Shangdang, Hongnong and other counties. The battle is imminent." Sima Yan said respectfully.

Sima Zhao couldn't help frowning.

It is one thing for the Central Plains to be stronger than Kansai, but strength does not equal combat power.

The Central Plains was in the midst of a crisis, Shi Bao was suspected, Zhou Tai died of illness, Zhong Yu dared not use it, Lu Qin's governance ability exceeded his ability to command the army, Shi Jian and He Zeng were good at fighting internally, and the external war was a mess.

Only Chen Qian was left to preside over the overall situation in Hebei.

The rest of Tang Zi, Liu Hong, Wang Jun, and Wang Hun have junior qualifications, and they are good generals, but Sima Zhao is a little worried about being commanders.

If Chen Tai was by his side, Sima Zhao would probably not have such worries.

Thinking of Feng Sa's murderous Qin thief rushing towards him in the heavy snow, Sima Zhao shuddered again, "Do you have a good plan?"

"Hedong is the barrier of Luoyang. If Qin thieves step into Hedong, Tongguan and Hongnong will not be protected. They should be protected with heavy troops!" Sima Yan said.

This kind of non-constructive nonsense, if you say it, you don't say it.

But he is the son of Prince Jin, so even if what he said was nonsense, someone would support him.

"Your Majesty is thoughtful and thoughtful, which is a good policy." Xun Xu cupped his hands.

As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone in the hall praised him.

"The master's literary and military strategies are rare in ancient and modern times."

"The son is wise and resourceful, and can decide big things!"

……

Sima Yan has an excellent reputation, and his personality is indeed much more tolerant than Sima Zhao.

Doesn't the current gentry need such a tolerant monarch?

All kinds of flattering sounds filled the hall, making Sima Zhao's eyes look strange. He asked about the strategy of defending against the enemy, but his style of painting suddenly changed to singing praises. After coughing a few times, the flattering stopped abruptly.

"Grandpa, what's your plan?"

Jia Chong rolled his eyes a few times and glanced sideways at Xun Xu. Although he was jealous, Jia Chong couldn't move because of Xun Xu's family background.

Sima Zhao had to be polite to the Xun family, not to mention him as a dog's leg.

It was just a dazed effort just now, but the limelight was stolen by others.

There is also a lot of competition pressure to be a dog these days.

"Hedong is bounded by the Yellow River, and the Qin thieves are condescending from Taiyuan. Why did they send troops from Linjin?" Jia Chong once led the army alone and guarded Huainan for several months. not far.

As soon as this remark came out, the palace suddenly fell into deep thought.

Jia Chong proudly said: "I thought that the Qin thieves must be attacking the west and attracting our army in Linjin with great fanfare. Their true intention is in Taiyuan. Going south from Taiyuan can make use of the advantages of cavalry!"

Sima Zhao couldn't help but nodded.

"That's why, as long as Taiyuan is contained, the Qin thieves will return without success." Jia Chong thought very fast.

"How to contain it?" Sima Yan was also attracted by Jia Chong's words.

But Xun Xu, Pei Xiu and others all had a trace of jealousy in their eyes.

This made Jia Chong feel very good. Cao Mao drew his sword and boarded the chariot, and went straight to the prime minister's mansion. At a critical juncture, it was Jia who pretended to be disrespectful and wiped Sima Zhao's ass. Otherwise, Cao Mao would face Sima Zhao face to face, or die directly in Sima's house The Sima family may not dare to reuse the Yingchuan gentry, but they will definitely reuse Jia Chong, "Did your lord forget Tuoba Liwei?"

Sima Zhao's eyes lit up, and he chuckled, "Not bad!"

Daijun is behind Yanmen, if Tuoba Xianbei sends troops, both Yanmen and Taiyuan will be in jeopardy.

Just like Soochow attacked Jingzhou back then.

"I heard that the Tuoba tribe has many connections with the Qin thieves. Tuoba Liwei is a mature man, caught in the middle of the east and west, and the fisherman makes a fortune. He never easily stepped into the civil war in the Central Plains. How could he send troops?" Xun Xu said.

Jia Chong sneered and said: "Of course Tuoba Liwei will not send troops, but he is already old. Tuoba Xianbei is not only the Tuoba family, but Tuoba Liwei's sons are all powerful and ambitious. Why don't you allow us to make huge profits?" ? As long as the Qin thieves are defeated, we can only take back Taiyuan, and let them take Yanmen, Yunzhong, Dingxiang, Jiuyuan, Shuofang, and Beidi!"

hiss--

The people in the hall gasped one after another, and looked at Jia Chong with strange eyes.

Although the counties of Yanmen, Yunzhong, Dingxiang, Jiuyuan, Shuofang, and Beidi had actually separated from the Central Plains since the Eastern Han Dynasty.

But in name it is still the territory of Cao Wei.

Everything in this world is right and proper. If you cut it out now, it will be difficult to get it back later.

All Xianbei tribes went south intentionally or unintentionally, encroaching on the land of Han.

This is true for Liaodong, Daijun, and Shanggu.

However, although this policy is extremely shameless, it is the most suitable for the current situation.

Anyway, these territories cannot be taken back, and the Sima family plans to take them back. It is better to let the Xianbei people fight with the Qin thieves.

Everyone's eyes drifted to Sima Zhao. These famous people naturally had to stay away from this kind of infamy.

Jia Chong has already given up everything for the sake of the Sima family, and even killed the king in the street, so he still cares about these infamy?
Sima Zhao glanced at the crowd. At the critical moment, Jia Chong was still considerate, "This strategy is great, not only for Tuoba Xianbei, but also for the three tribes of Liaodong and Mobei. Yanmen, Yunzhong, Dingxiang, Jiuyuan, Shuofang and the six prefectures of Beidi, let them take it for themselves, the one who wins the bandit county will be made a marquis, and the school captain, and the one who wins the bandit county will be made a prince, general, and prefect!"

Sima Zhao took even bigger steps.

Orthodoxy is an absolute weapon in this era, it can create a wave, and there are always some people rushing to the front.

In order to destroy the Qin thieves, the Sima family did everything possible.

"Your Majesty can't!"

Finally someone spoke up.

"Oh?" Sima Zhao raised his gaze and landed on the gray-haired Shi Bao, "What's wrong with Sikong?"

The look was not friendly.

Once the suspicion has arisen, it will never dissipate easily.

One emperor and one courtier.

Shi Bao is Sima Yi's dog leg and has a good relationship with Master Sima, but not so closely with Sima Zhao.

Sima Zhao didn't like to see people who were not born as celebrities.

The current situation of Shibao is very similar to that of Xia Houxuan back then. In order to restore his already infamous reputation, Sima Zhao did not use the ancestral stunt of the "Three Yi Clans".

"Tie Yang is indeed attacking the west, but it is not Taiyuan, but the three counties of Shangyong, Jingxiang, and Nanyang!" Shi Bao also knew his situation, but he couldn't help it.

Sima Zhao is ruthless to him, but he cannot be unjust to Sima Zhao.

Everything he has today is due to Sima Yi's promotion back then.

Otherwise, he can only be a merchant now.

"Jingzhou!" Sima Zhao's expression darkened.

This possibility is too great, Sima Zhao is not an idiot.

Jia Chong was taken aback for a moment, and felt that it was more reasonable than his own deduction.

"Wu people have always been treacherous, coveting Jingxiang for more than a day, Sun Xiu is weak, Zhang Bu, Pu Yangxing and others are not to be feared, but Ding Feng is a veteran general, Shi Ji and Lu Kang have long had their own hearts. Wu and Qin secretly joined forces, so we must guard against it!" Shi Bao guarded Shouchun, and he followed wherever the business was done, and of course he knew the situation in Wu.

Many news in this era were first disseminated by merchants.
