Chapter 665 Scourge
Maybe God opened his eyes, maybe Suo Jing was right.

In early March, there was a heavy snowstorm in Guanzhong.

Day and night non-stop, God seems to want to return all the rainwater in arrears.

Yang Zheng was naturally overjoyed.

As long as it is not a severe drought for several years, Guanzhong can bear it.

After the heavy snow, the weather cleared up, the temperature rose day by day, and the long-lost spring finally came.

Spring plowing is just around the corner, work in the new capital has stopped, and all the peasants have returned to their land.

Yang Zheng also worshiped the heaven and the earth in a decent way, amnesty the prisons of the Qin State, issued a spring plowing order, and sent envoys to persuade farmers to encourage the people to reclaim wasteland.

Jia Yi said in "Ji Chu Shu Shu" that spring plowing is the great destiny of the world.

If it were not for the drought last year, the outbreak of the land equalization system would have come a year earlier.

However, after annexing the Southern Huns and Tuoba Xianbei, Qin's national power increased a lot.

As soon as the spring plowing was over, the envoy of Zhonghui came again.

This time, it wasn't Zhong Yi, but a collateral child of the Zhong family. After a burst of flattery, Yang Zheng waved him directly to get down to business.

"The governor asked the king of Qin to send troops together to hunt Jiangdong and divide Dongwu equally!"

"Wu country?" Yang Zheng was taken aback, but Zhong Hui still had a big appetite.

Zhuge Dan has managed Jiangdong for more than ten years without the intention of engulfing Wu. Zhong Hui survived the catastrophe.

But it also fits his character.

"Does your governor know how big Soochow is and how many troops it has?" Yang Zheng's first reaction was to refuse.

Since ancient times, if the war of destroying the country is not planned well, it may be oneself who will be destroyed first.

Cao Cao's Battle of Chibi and Liu Bei's Battle of Yiling are just around the corner.

Although Soochow has closed its doors and killed on its own these years, its strength should not be underestimated.

Several Jiangdong gentry are quite powerful.

Shi Ji, Lu Kang, Buxie, etc., the veteran Ding Feng is still alive, although the offense is insufficient, the defense is more than enough.

Zhong knows how to row a boat without using an oar, and relies entirely on the waves, so he can't follow him into the fire pit.

"Your Majesty only knows one thing but not the other. After the Lord of Wu, Sun Hao, came to power, he first destroyed the Puyang Xing clan, then the Zhangbu clan, killed Sun Feng, exiled Sun Ba's second son, punished Sun Fen and his five sons, and killed his half-mother. Brothers Sun Qian, Sun Jun and other clans also like to drink banquets, and they often gouged out people's eyes and cut off people's hands and feet on the banquet... The people of Wu were terrified. The destruction of the Wu Kingdom is imminent, and if the king does not take it, he is afraid that Sima will be the first to ascend in the future!"

The children of the Zhong family all have two brushes.

From this, it can be seen that there is no cleanliness between the Yingchuan gentry and Zhonghui.

"Master Wu is really so tyrannical?" Wei Guan was also shocked.

"Qin's secret works are all over the world, and you can find out if you check them."

This kind of thing should not be just talking nonsense.

Sun Hao was a well-known tyrant in history.

Seeing that Yang Zheng was still hesitating, the envoy said respectfully: "Sima Yan wants to stand in place of Wei, and needs military service. I'm afraid that Luoyang's rulers and ministers are also looking at Jiangdong at this moment. Your Majesty will make preparations in the morning."

Although this sentence is a reminder, there is also a hint of threat in it, that is, if you, Yang Zheng, do not cooperate with me, I can find Sima Yan.

Recent news from Luoyang confirmed that Sima Yan was indeed preparing for his enthronement.

There must always be a reason for ascending the throne and proclaiming emperor. Sima Shi had the merit of destroying Wuqiu Jian, and Sima Zhao had the merit of pacifying Zhuge's birthday. Sima Yan also took back Huaibei, but lost Huainan.

You can't call yourself emperor with the cheek, right?
"How does your governor plan to divide it equally?" Yang Zheng asked,
The envoy's eyes flashed brightly, "Jingzhou belongs to Qin, Jiangdong belongs to the Zhong family, and the whole family of the Zhong family surrenders to the Great Qin and attacks the Central Plains!"

This sounds like Zhong Hui's style...

The benefits are all taken by yourself, and the risks are borne by others.

Jingzhou is fragmented, and Xiangyang and Nanyang are still in the hands of the Sima family. What is a Jingnan going to do?
This is called a split?

And Jingnan is not so easy to get, the Lu family, the Bu family, and the Shi family are all here.

The state of Wu is a wrecked ship, but it has a strange characteristic. It is lackluster in foreign wars, so it succeeded in backstabbing Guan Yu...

However, in the face of foreign invasion, the major gentry clans in the country will unite as never before in order to keep their one-acre three-point land.

There was the Battle of Chibi and Yiling before, and the Battle of Shiting and Dongguan later.

Soochow can defeat the enemy army...

Thanks to the military system of the Eastern Wu, the overall national strength of the Wu Kingdom has declined, but there are always some tribes of the gentry that are particularly capable of fighting.

Yang Zheng laughed loudly, "Huainan has only tens of thousands of troops, Jiangdong has more than [-] armored troops, and the navy is sharp. How can you defeat Wu? Go back and tell Zhong Hui, let's keep it safe for a few more years, accumulate some strength, and discuss this matter later." thing!"

This is definitely for Chung to consider.

Judging by Sima Yan's appearance, it seems that he has reached some kind of agreement with the Yingchuan gentry, and will not attack Huainan for a while until he is firmly in power.

Huainan has fertile soil and water, and it was the lifeblood of the country during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Zhong Huihaosheng has been in business for a few years, and his wings are full.

But Yang Zheng knew that Zhong Hui would not listen to what he said.

It is not Zhong Hui who can listen to other people's advice.

The envoy's eyes darkened, "Your Majesty... the governor of my family has thought carefully. If Your Majesty sends troops from Jiaozhou and Yong'an to destroy Wu... there is a lot to do. This is a good opportunity given by God. If Sun Hao dies suddenly,"

"Then let's talk after the sudden death!" Yang Zheng directly issued the order to evict the guest.

Zhong Hui never had any good intentions.

If he really did what he said, wouldn't Qin Guo work for him?
Zhonghui looks beautiful, and thinks even more beautifully.

Killing Wu at this time...Yang Zheng hasn't died yet.

It is his business that he wants to die.

At present, Qin's biggest enemy is the Central Plains, just keep an eye on Sima's family, there is no need to provoke Soochow.

The envoy left frustrated, and Wei Guan said: "Once Zhong Hui makes up his mind, he will never let it go. If he fails to cooperate with me, he will definitely encourage the Sima clan. If the Sima clan attacks Wu, it will be unpredictable for Soochow!"

Wei Guan and Zhong Hui are family friends, and the relationship between the two was very good.

But now they are on different camps.

"The Sima family can't destroy Wu!" Yang Zheng said firmly.

Shi Ji and Buxie are ordinary people, but Lu Kang is a famous player, Ding Feng is still alive, defense is enough.

If Zhong Hui can encourage Sima Shi to attack Wu, Yang Zheng can't wait for it.

Wei Guan only made an assessment based on national strength, but Yang Zheng was a traveler who knew the course of history.

Lu Kang can definitely surprise Sima Yan.

At present, it is enough for the Qin State to develop secretly. They beat them, and if one of the two families is out of breath, they can go to reap the benefits by themselves. It is wonderful to think about it.

"Although our army will not fight, we should make preparations for Shuzhong, Nanzhong, and Shangyong." Wei Guan reminded.

"Boyu's words are true!"

There are Du Yu, Linghu Sheng, and Luo Xian in Shuzhong, Huo Yi and Yang Ji in Nanzhong, Zhou Zhi and Liu Yin in Shangyong, all of them are veterans, and they will not miss the opportunity.

Yang Zheng was looking forward to Zhong Hui's coquettish operation.

Originally, Zhong Hui had been buried in the ground this year in history, but now that he is alive, he is still a scourge.

Good people don't live long, and disasters last thousands of years.

Zhong Hui couldn't harm himself, so he would naturally harm Sima Yan and Soochow.
