The last three kingdoms

Chapter 392
After winning the great victory at Jieting, Liu Yin did not return to Tianshui, but set up camp near Jieting. His eyes no longer focused on Longyou behind him, but turned to the vast Sanfu area.

Although the battle was fought with great vigor, Liu Yin was very clear-headed. Now is not the time to cheer for victory. Sima hoped that the [-] troops would retreat completely, and the entire Guanzhong was still monolithic.

What's more, Zhonghui in Yizhou has always been Liu Yin's confidant, if Zhonghui returns to help, even if he sends a part of the army, Liu Yin will have to bear the dilemma of fighting on both sides. This point, Liu Yin must guard against of.

But the situation is good now. The news from Hanzhong proves that Zhong Hui's army is still in Yizhou at the moment, and there is no sign of withdrawal for the time being.

Liu Yin didn't know what Sima Zhao was thinking. The situation in Guanlong was already in jeopardy, but Sima Zhao kept holding on to Zhonghui's orders. Maybe it was because of vested interests that refused to let go, or maybe it was because Sima Zhao never let go. He didn't regard himself as an opponent, thinking that it was impossible for him to cause much trouble in Guanlong.

Liu Yin had to admit that compared with a big crocodile like Sima Zhao, he could only be regarded as a nobody, and it was normal for Sima Zhao to look down on him.As Sima Zhao, who owns ten states in the world and has the ambition to unify the world, what happened in Longxi can only be a small accident at best, and it is definitely not enough to shake Sima Zhao's ambition to be king.

Anyone can make mistakes, and underestimating himself will definitely be the biggest mistake in Sima Zhao's life.And this undoubtedly created a favorable condition for himself. As long as Chang'an and the entire Guanzhong can be taken down quickly, it will be tantamount to strangling Zhong Hui's retreat, and the situation of the whole world will be changed for the better. Sima Zhao will surely pay a heavy price for his arrogance.

Late makes a difference!The development of the situation determined that Liu Yin must win quickly in Guanzhong, otherwise Sima Zhao would not have the slightest chance when he dispatched all states, counties, Zhonghui and even the army to attack Wu.

But now there is only Sima Wang's [-] troops in the entire Guanzhong. After the battle of Jieting, the morale of the Wei army must have been sluggish, and the morale has also dropped to the lowest. This is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. up.

Therefore, the Liu Yin faction did not return to Longyou, nor did they hold a celebration banquet. The entire army was waiting in front of Guangwei in Jieting, waiting for the opportunity to move.

But the news of the Shu army's victory at Jieting spread like wildfire, and soon spread throughout the entire Longyou counties.

Majiawu Fort is full of guests again at this moment, and gentry and aristocrats from all over the world have come to ask Mr. Ma for advice.

Mr. Ma was also deeply shocked. He never expected that Liu Yin's battle would be won so simply and neatly. Wei Jun's [-] troops came in good spirits, but left in disappointment.Mr. Ma was also thankful for his decision, he just watched from the sidelines and did not choose to be an enemy of Liu Yin, otherwise the fate of the Ma family might be the same as that of the defeated Wei army, with no chance of turning over.

"It seems that Liu Yin, the general of Shuhan Zhenbei, is not a thing in the pool." Mr. Ma squinted his eyes, stroked his white beard, and said leisurely.He understood that after this battle, Liu Yin had firmly established himself in Longyou, and it was time for the Ma family and the entire Longyou scholar family to make a choice.

Mr. Ma exchanged opinions with the heads of the Longyou scholars' families, and almost unanimously expressed their willingness to support Liu Yin.When Liu Yin first arrived in Longyou, all the scholars were waiting and watching. At that time, no one believed that Liu Yin could stop Wei Jun's counterattack, and none of the scholars dared to take the risk of offending Wei Guo and befriend Liu Yin.But at this moment, all the scholars have seen Liu Yin's strength, and everyone understands that if they don't make a move at this time, they may not get any share of the pie.

Soon the Longyou scholars reached a consensus and were willing to fully support Liu Yin.At present, Mr. Ma and the heads of the three major families of Li, Yang, and Liang were promoted as representatives to buy cattle and wine, and went to Jieting Shu army camp to reward the troops.

Of course Liu Yin understood the intentions of the Four Great Scholars. He reached a tacit agreement with Mr. Ma on the Majiawu Fort that day. The invading soldiers who retreated from the Wei State stood firm in Longyou, and the Longyou scholars including the Ma family will fully support Liu Yin.

The current world is based on the scholar family, and the scholar family economy almost controls the world. Liu Yin wants to rule the world, but the scholar family is an unavoidable hurdle after all.And no matter what state or county the scholar family has any concept of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism in their bones, in their minds, the interests of the scholar family are greater than the sky.

This undoubtedly also gave Liu Yin an opportunity. In Longyou, as long as he can get the support of the four major scholars in Longyou headed by the Ma family, he can gain a firm foothold in Longyou.

Of course, there must be sacrifices to gain something. After receiving the support of the scholars in Longyou, they also need to share a part of the power to these scholars. In this regard, Liu Yin is not stingy. In fact, this is an equivalent exchange.

When Liu Yin entered Longxi, he was not supported by the scholars of Longyou. At that time, he was not convincing. Now he has defeated the counterattack of Wei State and made the scholars of Longyou pay attention to him. They also understand that the opportunity must not be lost, and the reason why the loss will never come again. If they continue to sit on the sidelines, then their power will probably be marginalized. If they want to keep their status in Longyou unchanged, they must have some strength. What you pay is.

This time, the scholars' families donated cattle and wine to reward the Shu army, and at the same time brought good news to Liu Yin. The scholars' families in Longyou will support him with all their strength, food and money.

This time, the soldiers' families in Longyou also invested their money. For the benefit of the family, they bet all their treasures on Liu Yin.

Of course, the return is also very realistic. Liu Yin agrees that the current officials at all levels in the Longyou counties will remain unchanged. The basis for the survival of scholars.

Liu Yin's move was beneficial but not costly. He had no plan to clean up the middle and lower officials. After all, he wanted to maintain the stability of the political situation in Longyou. Things at the level of officials should not be touched, especially the middle and lower officials. , not to move lightly.

The Longyou scholar family made a choice this time, choosing to stand on Liu Yin's side, which made Liu Yin secretly relieved. In the next Guanzhong battle, he can integrate more resources to seize More head start.
