Chapter 632 Growth
Since defeating Ding Feng Shiji, Sima Zhao's reputation has risen again.

Auspicious offerings have been offered from all over the country, and the meaning is self-evident.

Cao Wei has only one piece of skin left, and he is not short of the last step.

Emperor Cao Huan was very self-conscious and never asked about important affairs in the court. He sat on the dragon chair every day and was very obedient.

If Sima Zhao told him to go east, he would go east, if he told him to go west, he would go west.

However, Sima Zhao was not dazed. He was accused of killing the king in the street, and he couldn't take the last step no matter what.

"The army recruited this year is all heroic men from Hebei. There are 870 Wuhuan Tuqi, 26 warriors from the three tribes of Liaodong, and nearly [-] children and tribes from the major gentry tribes. There are already [-] soldiers!" Jia Chong's tone was full of joy.

For every extra soldier, the Central Plains will be more stable.

After eating and drinking, the gentry supported Sima Zhao very much.

Sima Zhao felt that his strength had surpassed that of Feng Sa before the battle.

This is the second year of the implementation of the land occupation system.

"Now that the soldiers are full and the food and grass are plentiful, after the autumn harvest, the three armies will be awarded as rewards, and they can smash Guanzhong!" Sima Yan has no experience in Feng Sa's battle, so he is ambitious.

This was also planned by his staff.

Now that the state of Qin is conquering the fields, rebellions are rampant in the country. It is time to raise all the people of the country and go straight to Guanzhong, step by step, crush Chang'an with national power, and respond to the rebellion in Hexi and Shuzhong.

It made Yang Zheng unable to take out his hands to suppress the rebellion.

After spending two or three years, Qin will inevitably collapse.

With Tongguan in hand, the initiative to attack is in the hands of the Sima family.

Sima Zhao was also quite moved.

If he could defeat Yang Zheng and regain Guanzhong, he would also be able to cover up his reputation as a regicide in the street.

"Your Majesty, don't do it!" At the critical moment, Jia Chong stood up and bowed his hands to Sima Zhao, and then to Sima Yan, "Your Majesty, don't forget that there is Zhonghui in Huaibei!"

Only Jia Chong will never forget Zhong.

Sima Zhao's face darkened.

Zhong Hui has kept a low profile for more than a year. Even during the Xiangyang war, he was honest and honest.

There is not a single bit of tax that should be paid.

Sima Zhao has written to Sima Zhao many times, recounting the old love of the year, and Zhong Hui also vowed to point to the Huai River as his oath, and he has no heart of betrayal...

He also went through Xun Yi's doorway, and let the Xun, Chen, Han, and Xin clans in Yingchuan speak well for Zhonghui.

Xun Yi is the sixth son of Xun Yu, and he is an old antique among the Yingchuan gentry.

Of course, Sima Zhao is not really confused. Zhong Hui’s letter of swearing by Huai Shui seems to be a deliberate mockery...

"If it wasn't for what Gonglu said, I would have forgotten about this thief!" Sima Zhao gritted his teeth.

Back then when Feng Sa was defeated, Zhong Hui had an army of tens of thousands and went straight to Luoyang. Is this absolutely unrebellious?

The two have known each other since childhood, and they know each other's virtues well.

"Zhong Hui has many tricks, and now he is holding back, he must have a major plan, and he is in Huaibei, gathering people's hearts, recruiting soldiers and people, reclaiming wasteland, following the example of Yang thief, and using the system of government soldiers to raise nearly [-] soldiers with Huaibei's fertile land. It is a great disaster for the country!" Jia Chong will never be reconciled if he does not kill Zhong Hui, and whenever he thinks of Zhong Hui's contempt and mockery, he will be furious.

"Intensify the training of soldiers, and after the autumn harvest, attack Huaibei first!" As long as he is not fighting the Qin army, Sima Zhao is full of confidence.

Send troops from Luoyang, go down the Yingshui River, green, Xu, Yanyu, Jingyang, besieged from all sides, and Zhonghui's fate will come to an end.

In fact, when the tuntian system was abolished and tuntian guests were disbanded, Zhonghui's fate was already doomed.

Afterwards, Sima Zhao ordered Qingxu, Yanyu, Jingyang and Liuzhou to train soldiers and save food and grass.

Luoyang's every move naturally cannot be hidden from Zhong Hui's eyes.

Sima Zhao didn't want to hide it either.

There are still two months before the autumn harvest, and time is running out.

Zhong Hui is dressed in white and has a high crown, with a long sword hanging from his waist.

He seemed to be sighing, but he didn't look sad at all.

"The war between the governor and the Sima family will be a matter of time." Jiang Bin looked sad.

When Sima Zhao fought against Zhuge's birthday, 26 Chinese troops gathered in various towns, with an army of 50 million.

Zhuge's birthday that year was also supported by Soochow.

Now the clock will be besieged on all sides.

"Did you think that someone is Zhuge's birthday? The battle will last for a long time, and the victory or defeat will be determined by others." Zhong Hui sneered.

The generals around were laughing dryly, and they didn't know where Zhong Hui's confidence came from.

"Is there any reply from the envoy of Wu Kingdom?" Jiang Bin asked.

Uniting Soochow has always been Zhonghui's constant strategy.

However, the monarchs and ministers of Eastern Wu had just experienced the defeat of Xiangyang, and they seemed to have no ambitions for Huainan.

After Wu Lord Sun Hao came to power, he flirted with Luoyang, and the relationship was very hot, so it would be good if he didn't send troops to strike the bell.

The generals under his command were suspicious, so Zhong Hui had no choice but to reassure them, "Someone's reinforcements are not in the south, but in the west!"

"Qin State!" Jiang Bin's heart skipped a beat.

The state of Wu is unreliable, but the state of Qin is.

Qin will never allow Sima Zhao to set off the Fourth Huainan War, nor will he sit back and watch the clock die.

After Sima Zhao destroyed Zhonghui, he would definitely concentrate his forces to attack Guanzhong.

"The governor is wise." Jiang Bin felt relieved.

Even if Qin sent troops to contain it, life in Huaibei would be much easier.

Besides, Zhong Hui didn't stand idly by in Huaibei for the past two years. He imitated the Qin State, implemented the government military system, used Huaibei's fields to support the army and the people, and also made a [-]-rank military merit to motivate the soldiers, and the Huaibei army's combat strength became stronger day by day.

From Yingshui to Huaishui, there is a dock for ten miles and a castle for thirty miles.

The soldiers trained day and night. Although the offense was insufficient, they still had the strength to defend the one-acre three-point land in Huaibei.

"Luoyang is known as the 26th Chinese Army, but it is just a mob recruited hastily. If it goes south, it will be defeated by our army. Feng Sa will be defeated, Sima Zhao will be defeated in Guanzhong, and if Huaibei will be defeated, Shandong will be mine. You are rich and honored. In front of my eyes!" Zhong Hui stretched out his sleeves and stood with his hands behind his back.

The faces of the other generals softened a lot.

Jiang Bin suddenly remembered that Zhong Hui had vaguely mentioned that Huainan was going to be taken secretly.

For such a long time, Huainan is afraid of being infiltrated and riddled with holes.

Wang Shen is a literati, and his governance is second to none, but his military management is not outstanding.

Zhong Hui only mentions Qingxu and not Huainan, probably premeditated, intrigue has always been his strong point.

From this point of view, Huaibei seems to be dangerous, but in fact there are great opportunities...

"General Jiang, don't trust Luoyang's secret decree." Zhong Hui said suddenly after the crowd dispersed.

Jiang Bin was taken aback for a moment, and then felt chills all over his body.

It felt like I was standing naked in front of Zhong Hui.

It was half a year ago, Sima Zhaomi ordered him to kill Zhong Hui and treat him as the governor of Huaibei.

There were only two people in the field.

A flash of malice flashed in Jiang Bin's heart, and he couldn't help pressing the handle of the knife. If this kind of thing was broken, he could only meet with swords.

Zhong Hui still had his hands behind his back and looked at him with a smile on his face.

In terms of momentum, Jiang Bin has been firmly suppressed.

After his eyes touched the Yitian sword on Zhong Hui's waist, Jiang Bin's evil thoughts disappeared, and he knelt down on one knee, "Prince, please forgive me!"

Zhong Hui said with a smile: "What's the crime? You and I are as close as brothers. How can I provoke you? He has this letter to persuade you. It is really God helping you and me to achieve a great cause. It is just a plan to feign surrender!"
