contend

"Things are accomplished with secrets, and they are defeated with leaks. Qin's thieves' meticulous work is spread all over the world. Since they want to attack Qin, they must be secreted. Food, grass, military equipment, and elite soldiers are gathered in Hongnong, and then suddenly attack them. First pull Huayin and then break it. Zheng County, marched straight in, approached Chang'an with troops, caught the bandits by surprise, then His Majesty sent hundreds of thousands of troops out of Luochuan, entered Qinchuan, took Chang'an with all his might, if Chang'an is broken, the Qin bandits will be wiped out!"

Chen Qian had been pressed and beaten by Ma Long all the time, and in order to vent his anger, he had to go all out.

Sima Yan's gaze turned to Shi Bao, and if he didn't make a move, it would be fine. If he made a move, he would directly reverse the situation on the battlefield, and he was the most suitable candidate for the front governor.

But Shi Bao fell asleep again at this moment, drooling a mouthful of saliva.

After all, he is not young, 70 years old.

Sima Yan shook his head.

Xun Xu said: "Your Majesty, if you want to change the policy of first going south and then going west, you must first form a good relationship with Jiangdong. First, you can confuse the Qin thieves and strengthen my momentum. Second, you can prevent Jiangdong from sending troops to harass me and distract me."

"Good knot?" Sima Yan frowned.

If it weren't for Zhong Hui to block Ruxu, Sima Yan would have entered Jianye by now.

To make a good relationship with Jiangdong is to give Zhonghui time to develop.

Sima Yan stared at Xun Xu fiercely. It was well known that he and Zhong Hui had a disagreement. Why did it always feel like he was helping Zhong Hui intentionally or unintentionally?
But after thinking about it, this is the normal state of the gentry, and everything is based on the interests of the family.

Even if Sima Yan is the emperor, he can't control him.

The rise of Zhonghui in Jiangdong is actually the Yingchuan gentry spreading branches and leaves in Jiangdong.

Xun Xu is Zhong Hui's nephew, and this kind of in-law connection has always been indelible.

It is unrealistic to annex Jiangdong at the moment, and Zhonghui Buqu's combat power has already been demonstrated in Ruxu.

There is also Lu Kang in Jingzhou.

We can only see how Yanghu is doing in Xiangyang.

But this takes time.

Maybe a few years later, Zhong Hui will turn against the Lu family, and there will be a chance.

"Then send envoys to contact Soochow!" The current Sima Yan is still a qualified emperor.

"Your Majesty is wise!" Xun Xu cupped his hands, meeting Jia Chong's malicious eyes.

"Sun Hao has just been captured by His Majesty, and this feud cannot be shared, Jiang Dong will not let it go? If Jiang Dong's monarchs and ministers let Sun Hao be returned, how will Xun Jun think about it?" Sure enough, Jia Chong poured cold water on him.

In fact, Xun Xu's intelligence is not inferior to Jia Chong's. He has always been wise and safe, cherishing his feathers.

He chuckled twice and said, "Jiangdong nobles can even abandon Ding Feng, so what about a Sun Hao? The master of Jiangdong is not the Sun family, nor Zhonghui, Jiangdong nobles! Forgive me, Sun Hao has already been abandoned by them, not only It's not our burden, but our help, once word gets out, if Sun Hao is to be returned, the Jiangdong gentry will definitely respond to their requests!"

Sima Yan laughed twice, "Wonderful, wonderful!"

It was the first time I discovered that Sun Hao's living treasure is still useful, at least it can be used to threaten and divide Jiangdong.

When Sun Hao returned to Jiangdong, how could he bypass Lu Kai, Meng Zong and others?
Jiangdong will definitely be turned upside down again!
Jia Chong was speechless for a while, knowing that what Xun Xu said was true, he was also a gentry, and he knew the virtues of a gentry, his eyes rolled in his triangular eyes, and he thought about it, "Gong Zeng's wisdom is rare in the world, no less than that of Xun Lingjun back then." In order to make Jiangdong a good friend, it must be Gong Zeng, and others will never be able to accomplish anything!"

The water in Jiangdong is very deep, and Xun Xu went, whether he can come back alive is still another matter.

Even if he came back alive, Jia Chong could still slander Sima Yan, saying that he secretly colluded with Zhong Hui.

Looking at the Central Plains, there is no one more suitable except Xun Xu.

Sima Yan looked at Xun Xu, "What do you think, Mr. Zeng?"

Xun Xu glanced at Jia Chong, this man had already dug a hole for him, and it was impossible not to jump, and from the corner of his eye, he saw the "sleeping" stone bud, and thought to himself that this old fox was smart, "I would like to go to Jiangdong." !"

"Haha, Gong Zengzhen is a national scholar." Sima Yan was very satisfied.

At this time, Shi Bao's eyelids opened slightly, revealing a gleam of light, but he was not looking at Xun Xu and Jia Chong, but at Chen Qian.

The "receiving the wind banquet" broke up unhappy, but the discussion was very successful.

Everyone went back to their homes with a smile on their faces.

As soon as Shi Bao returned to her mansion, her waist and legs no longer hurt, and she was alone in the warm room thinking.

In fact, Shi Bao, like Zhong Hui, also survived death.

Back then, he was suspected by Sima Zhao and Sima Yan, and his family's life was hanging by a thread, but now he has completely taken advantage of him.

He also became the great Sima of the state of Jin, the servant, and the Duke of Leling County.

In Luoyang, it can be regarded as a power for a while. The only shortcoming is that the family is not prosperous, and there is no background of the old noble families such as the Xun, Wang, and Jia.

So he will continue to hold on to his old bones until his sons and grandsons grow up.

"Is there something important for father today?" Shi Chong, the 17-year-old youngest son, came to serve him with tea.

"So it's Qi Nu." Shi Bao felt very relieved when he saw his son.

The six sons are all relatively successful, and each has official positions in the court, and several of them have been rated as celebrities.

Especially the youngest son, Shi Chong, who is quick, intelligent, courageous and resourceful, and Shi Bao has always admired him.

"Your Majesty is discussing the crusade against Qin today, and Chen Qian wants to make his father the former governor."

"This is absolutely impossible!" Shi Chong waved his hands again and again.

"Oh, why is that?" Shi Bao asked with a smile, this remark was exactly what he wanted.

What battles can be fought and what battles cannot be fought. Although Shi Bao is getting old, he is more sober than anyone else.

"The last time my father insulted Chen Qian for being incompetent in public, and sat back and watched Daijun fall into the hands of Qin thieves. Today, Chen Qian must have murdered his father. This is a game of death! If father loses, the Shi family will also be punished!"

"Haha, you're right. Old man Chen Qian is using his father's head to test the blade of the Qin people. His heart will be punished!"

After experiencing the Battle of Xiangyang and the Battle of Hefei, Shi Bao's military exploits are already sufficient, and his status is becoming more and more stable, so there is no need to take risks anymore.

On the other hand, it may not be a good thing to have too much credit these years...

Sima Yan's suspicion is not inferior to that of his father.

"Chen Qian wants to borrow a knife to kill people, and he will do it for his father! From tomorrow, he will be bedridden for his father's serious illness, and no outsiders will be seen!" Shi Bao said in a low voice, "Besides, don't be ambiguous with the people of Qin during this time. , Don’t do any business, keep a low profile, and don’t be caught by others!”

learn from mistakes.

The last time he supervised the town of Yangzhou, the business with Jiangdong was booming, but Wang Chen, the supervisor of Huaibei, seized the handle and almost killed Shi Bao.

Shi Chong's whole body was shocked, "I know."

Both Shi Bao and Deng Ai were Sima Yi's disciples, and they pretended to be sick.

There was no color on his face, and he was unconscious.

Even the imperial physician sent by Sima Yan couldn't see any flaws.

The imperial physician went, and Sima Yan came to visit him in person, but he also saw any flaws.

The candidate for the position of the former governor of Qin Dynasty was immediately vacant.

This battle was obviously a fierce battle, Jia Chong couldn't do it, Xun Xu went to Jiangdong, Sima Jun didn't dare to use it, and Sima Yan didn't dare to count on the "talents" such as Sima Yi, Sima Lun, Sima Gan, and Sima Xun.

After much deliberation, I found that the only suitable candidate was Chen Qian...

Only his ability, reputation, and qualifications are qualified...
