I seek economic hegemony in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 335: Playing with Wei Jun by the nose!

"Didn't you find it?"

Sima Zhao frowned.

Such an excellent opportunity, but Li Jian didn't come?
Wouldn't he be willing to wait for work?
Waiting for work!

OK! If you don't come over, I'll rest in Xiangcheng first. After I rest, we'll have a showdown in Xuchang!
Sima Zhao smiled and said: "Since Li Jian gave us time to rest, we will have a good rest."

Sima Zhao ordered the Wei army to station in Xiangcheng and sent a large number of cavalry to patrol the surrounding areas.

As a result, as soon as the Wei army settled down at noon, Sima Zhao received the notification.

The Han army left Xuchang and headed north quickly!
Sima Zhao was stunned for a while and then said: "Is Li Jian going to commit suicide?"

Chen Qian frowned and said, "I'm afraid he will continue to go north, causing political panic in Luoyang and forcing the Grand Tutor to mobilize troops from Guanzhong."

"In order to save Guanzhong, he even risked his own life!"

Sima Zhao was very unhappy when he learned that Li Heng was going north. He felt like he was being looked down upon.

"No, no, if he really hits Chenliu and continues to replenish food and rest in Chenliu and cut off water transportation, the ministers in the court may not be able to sit still."

"General, let's rest in Xiangcheng first. It won't be too late to send out troops in two days," Chen Qian said.

When they heard that the Shu army was coming, some big families, local scholars and people in Yanling fled with their families.

"Why?"

"If you give Li Jian a few more days, he won't be able to make any trouble."

On the way, I still only brought half a month's worth of food as an emergency plan.

Sima Zhao ordered to set off immediately.

The direction of Li Heng's march was Yanling.

Chen Liu's officials, big and small, were even more trembling and frightened.

In Yanling, he found several big families to replenish food. After resting, Li Heng continued on his way.

Upon hearing that the Shu army had arrived in Chenliu, Cao Jun, king of Chenliu, immediately fled to Luoyang with his family and his family.

This is not a simple military issue, but also involves Luoyang's food security.

On May 18, when Sima Zhao's exhausted army arrived in Xuchang, Li Heng's army had already arrived in Chenliuguo.

Sima Zhao said coldly.

The political problems caused by military threats and food security will be a scourge.

After making supplements here, the Shu army continued on their way.

In Li Heng's own words: We have all entered the large granary of the Central Plains. As soon as we arrived, those big families fled after hearing the news. The food they could not take away was our supply!

At this time, King Chenliu no longer cared about the rules that prohibited members of the clan from leaving the fiefdom.

Everything is traveling light.

On May 17, Li Heng arrived in Yanling, and just like in Xuchang, he obtained a batch of grain without any effort.

Those who can escape should flee quickly; those who cannot escape should immediately prepare to surrender to the Han army.

At the same time, an urgent message flew towards Luoyang like snowflakes.

On May 18th, Li Heng was stationed at Weishi.

He ate wherever he went.

Just when the Han army and the Wei army began to fight in Yuzhou, Sun Quan of Jianye could no longer sit still.

Prime Minister Gu Yong hurried into the palace: "Your Majesty, a letter from the Governor has arrived."

Sun Quan hurriedly opened it and read it quickly: "Okay! Li Jian is heading north, and now is our chance to take Jiangling back!"

"But the Grand Governor said that the scouts he sent over reported that Jiangling was heavily defended."

"Li Jian's soldiers and horses are being dragged by the Wei army. We only need to surround Jiangling City. No matter how tight the defense is, the city will be broken one day! Pass the order and order the governor to send troops to Jiangling immediately!" Sun Quan was very active and almost jumped up and down.

"Also, closely monitor the movements of the Wei army in Yangzhou. If there is any abnormality, order Zhuge Ke to go north at any time!"

"Here!"

Sun Quan took a deep breath, and the haze that had accumulated in his heart was now gone.

"Li Jian is still too young. He doesn't know the dangers of the Three Kingdoms competition, so he went north rashly!" Sun Quan laughed.

I almost rolled on the floor laughing.

"That's right! Zhu Ran is also ordered to monitor Xiangyang. If there is a chance, he will take back Xiangyang too!"

"Here!"

On the same day, Wang Ling of Shouchun received Sima Yi's letter.

"Sima Zhongda hopes that I will mobilize troops to reinforce Yuzhou." Wang Ling said.

The eldest son Wang Guang said: "My father said that Wu Jun has made some changes recently, and I hope the court can take the overall situation into consideration."

"What you said is also what I think." Wang Ling said, "Sima Yi killed the Cao Shuang clan and massacred Zhongliang in Luoyang. I will never help him. But I am still a little worried. If the Shu army really takes over Yuzhou, don’t I feel sorry for the imperial court?”

"Father is completely over-worried. At this time, Sima Yi's men are fighting with the Shu army in Yuzhou. After they finish fighting, it will not be too late for us to send troops again."

"Okay! Well said!"

Wang Ling immediately began to write a memorial to Luoyang.

On May 19, Sima Zhao dragged his exhausted army and chased him to Yanling, but by this time, Li Heng had already arrived at Chenliu.

Li Heng not only replenished food in Chenliu, but also dragged out the food from the big family and placed it at the city gate, allowing the surrounding people to queue up to receive the food.

From Xuchang to Chenliu, we picked up grain and scattered grain along the way.

Originally, local celebrities went around spreading the word that the Han army was a traitor and was coming to massacre the city.

As a result, wherever the Han army passed by, the people were all grateful and praised the Han army as the true king's army!

During this period, the reputation of the Han generals for their benevolence and righteousness quickly spread throughout the Central Plains.

Of course, Li Heng's reputation is polarizing.

To the scholar-bureaucrats, Li Heng was a butcher and executioner, but to some common people, Li Heng became a good man who helped the world.

In the past two days, the scouts from Chen Liuguo to Luoyang had not rested for a moment.

Sima Yi was always paying attention to the battle situation.

The development of the battle situation once again exceeded Sima Yi's expectations.

Li Heng's desperate move and rapid advance of the front line deepened Luoyang's panic.

The accumulation of local foreign troops was far slower than Li Heng's advancement. Sima Zhao led the tired division and chased behind, but it failed to have much effect.

In short: Cao Wei did not have enough troops to launch an effective encirclement against the Han army!
With Wang Ling's memorial sent to Luoyang, Luoyang had to accept the reality that Sun Quan might go north at any time, which worsened the situation.

"Master, please mobilize troops from Guanzhong. This is the only way we can do it now, otherwise Yuzhou and Yanzhou will be harmed by Li Jian again!"

Li Jian is now opening warehouses everywhere to store grain, and the local big families can't handle it!
The food that everyone worked so hard to save for so many years has now been stolen by those Sichuan dogs!

What a waste it is to give food to those untouchables!
This was like drawing a fucking map. After drawing it, Yanzhou and Yuzhou collectively praised Li Jian as the savior of the world!

Sima Yi wrote an urgent letter to Guo Huai to inquire about the situation.

More than half a month has passed since the Battle of Guanzhong resumed.

Zhuge Liang should be dead!

His grandma’s!
