"Sun Hao refused to leave and took the lead in attacking the Jin rebels, advancing along the waterway. The Jin army was not yet stable, and the Wu army had the upper hand. However, Wu Da Si Martin's boat suddenly capsized and he was killed in the Feishui River. The navy was in chaos, the infantry and soldiers were separated, and the stone army was in disarray.

Send brave generals

Yan Xun and Qian Hong attacked decisively and penetrated the Wu army's infantry formation. Sun Hao lost ground one after another. Sima Jun, Lu Qin, Sima Nian and others launched a fierce attack, and the Wu army was defeated. Sun Hao broke through the siege more than 20 times without being able to escape, and was besieged for several times.

The sun is coming,

Sima Yan led Sun Hao to the south, hoping to invade Jianye. Jiangdong was shaken, and the cities north of Wujiang surrendered one after another. However, Zhonghui's elite infantry occupied Ruxu, and the navy occupied the river. Unexpected troops stood out, and the Jin army lost several battles in a row.

Seven days, Jiangdong

People's hearts were at peace. Wu Prime Minister Lu Kai made Prince Sun Jin the emperor. Jingzhou Zuo Yiwuyan, Xiakou Tengmu and other armies came to support. The Jin army was seriously ill with diseases and the soldiers were seriously injured. Sima Yan knew that he could not go to the east of the Yangtze River, so he led

The army returns."

After Pang Qing read the frontline battle report, Yang Zheng heard the doubts in this battle.

Ding Feng has been playing with water all his life. Even if the warship capsizes, he can still escape, right?

Just gone?

The timing of Zhong Hui's appearance was perfect, it was just when Sima Yan was out of breath.

And why didn’t the Soochow armies support the Hefei battlefield earlier?

Of course, the main reason why the Wu army was defeated was because Sun Hao sought his own death.

Wu State was not annexed by Sima Yan, so it was completely within the acceptance range of Qin State.

Jiangdong is likely to be actually controlled by Zhong Hui in the future.

What can Sun Jin, a six or seven-year-old child, know?

This scene is too similar to the situation when Sima Yi and Cao Shuang were in power.

There is no doubt that Zhong Hui will definitely be the winner.

After this battle, Zhong Hui's reputation and power in Jiangdong will reach its peak, and in return, Zhong Hui has a very good relationship with Sun Jin, and Sun Hao once issued an edict asking him to assist.

"With Lu Kang outside Soochow and Zhong Hui inside, it's impossible to defeat him!" Wei Guan said after carefully studying the battle report.

"If Zhong Hui works hard and trains his soldiers, wouldn't he be able to compete with our great Qin in the Central Plains in a few years?" Linghu Sheng frowned.

Soochow has a good foundation, with fertile water and soil, sufficient population, and abundant money and food. There are still opportunities.

But fighting for world supremacy does not depend on who has money.

Yang Zheng smiled and said: "Zhong Hui wants to fight for the Central Plains. Do the Jiangdong nobles agree? Do the Jiangdong people agree?"

Yang Zheng has always felt that Wu was the most powerful among the Three Kingdoms. Shu lost Jingzhou, Guan Yu, and Liu Bei lost all their elites, and the national power was in decline. There was only one Zhuge Wuhou who supported the situation, but he made repeated northern expeditions.

Shu really has no chance.

But Soochow had too many opportunities, and the Three Huainan Rebellions gave them three opportunities.

However, the state of Wu has been firmly pinned to Jiangdong.

Wu State has been seriously ill since the founding of the country, and it was also the first among the Three Kingdoms to compromise with the gentry.

In recent years, the infighting in Wu State has been the most intense. Every time there is a new election, a wave of heads are shaved off.

Ding Feng's death may not have been due to this.

Will Zhong have a chance?

Of course there is, but if the Wu Kingdom is not cleaned up from top to bottom, Jiangdong will never be qualified to participate in the future hegemony game. At most, he will only get a handful and take advantage.

It depends on whether Zhong Hui has the courage or not.

To put it bluntly, the current situation in Wu State is actually a situation where the Lu family and Zhong Hui are co-governing. Zhong Hui wants to integrate internally, and the Lu family is a hurdle to get over!

"What your Majesty said is true!" Wei Guan smiled while twirling his beard.

Even if Zhong Hui has the courage, he no longer has the time.

Yang Zheng motioned to Pang Qing to continue.

"In terms of combat power, both Jin and Wu are lackluster. Sima Jun, Lu Qin, and Wang Yizhong are talented, but Shi Bao is quite experienced. The overall combat power of the Jin army is not strong, lower than that of the frontier army. The elite army of the Jin thieves can fight It should be around 50,000, but the soldiers under Chen Qian, Liu Hong, Wang Jun, and Tang Bin are still capable of fighting. This year, the Central Plains has had a good harvest as a whole. Although there were floods and epidemics, it did not shake the foundation. The Jin thieves implemented the Thirteenth Tax, so The treasury is full and the national strength is still rising."

The Xuanyi Department made a comprehensive assessment of the Central Plains.

Basically within Yang Zheng's expectations.

This year the Qin State also had a good harvest in various places, and there was finally something in the treasury.

There was no war for a long time, and the scene was peaceful.

The trade volume of silk, leather, pottery, tea, and books continued to increase.

The population has experienced a small explosion, with a large number of teenagers aged fifteen or sixteen appearing on the streets and in the countryside.

All industries are prosperous in the city of Chang'an, including brothels, restaurants, teahouses and libraries.

The Mobei tribe, merchants from the Western Regions, and Qiang guests from the plateau make Chang'an city full of vitality.

The only shortcoming is that the new Chang'an layout planned by Ji Kang is too big. Although there are slaves from Jiehu and Moxi tribes to build it, it will be difficult to build the new capital within three or four years.

Even though the city of Chang'an is now small and dilapidated, the price of houses has risen to an eye-popping level.

A small house of more than ten feet would cost thousands of dollars.

Some better mansions even cost tens of thousands...

Yang Zheng always felt that it was difficult to buy a house in his previous life, but in fact it was even more difficult in ancient times...

Envoys from countries in the Western Regions and Mobei tribesmen frequently came to pay tribute, which gave Chang'an a sense of the coming of all nations.

After Yang Yi and Yin Chun resolved the siege of the Three Kingdoms, some progress was made in negotiations with the countries in the Western Regions.

At least it is certain that princes and nobles from all over the world will come to study in Chang'an.

The only thing they are unwilling to give up is military power.

No one will take the initiative to give up on this thing. Yang Zheng is not in a hurry. If the Central Plains is unified, these things will be solved sooner or later.

"With Zhong Hui and Lu Kang in the east of Jiangdong, the Wu Kingdom will not be in chaos. With Sima Yan in Jin, the Central Plains is at its peak. The pattern of renewed confrontation among the three kingdoms has been formed. I don't want the three kingdoms to be reestablished for decades!" Yang Zheng said seriously.

A country's vigor only lasts for the first thirty or forty years.

If the problem is not solved during this time, it will be difficult to solve it in the future.

The slogan of unifying the world has been chanted for so many years, and it is time to put it into action.

Yang Zheng originally hoped that the Wu Kingdom would be in chaos, or that the Sima family's land occupation system would slip from its peak.

But now it seems that it is impossible.

The Wu Kingdom lost Sun Hao and Zhong Hui rose, and the source of chaos was gone.

After Sima Yan experienced this battle, his prestige reached its peak, and the powerful nobles no longer dared to point fingers at him.

Moreover, judging from the various news returned from the Central Plains, Sima Yan's group has realized the shortcomings of the land occupation system, implemented strict frugality, and ordered Jia Chong, Pei Xiu, Xun Xu and others to compile laws and standardize social order, which to a certain extent also In restraining the expansion of tyranny.

It is equivalent to Sima Yan adjusting the land occupation system to the maximum extent and delaying its decline.

In addition, people like Zhang Hua, Sima You, and Yang Hu are supporting the table.

Without ten or twenty years, the land occupation system will not decline.

It is worth mentioning that in the face of the plague, everyone is equal, from the common people to the powerful nobles.

In this era, they did not have such long legs, so they could not run out, and they suffered many casualties.

The death of a noble nobleman is equivalent to releasing the land and population...

In short, the world situation is still full of variables.

Historically, Sima Yan was similar to Cao Rui. When there were external threats, he could still maintain the appearance of a wise king.

At least after Sima Zhao died of a sudden illness, he was able to quickly take control of the situation, which shows that his ability is not bad.

"Your Majesty, are you going east?" Linghu was delighted.

Lu Zhi and Wei Guan exchanged a look.

Pang Qing's eyes flashed with joy.
