After dealing with Biqiu Jian's confidant, Sima Shi's mood was very happy, and what he was most worried about before was that if Biqiu and Cao Liang colluded with each other, it would be an endless disaster.

  Now that Wei Qian and Wang Qi have helped him deal with this trouble, it really made Sima Shi take a long breath, and in terms of meritorious deeds, of course Sima Shi will not be stingy, after all, Wei Qian and Wang Qi are their own people, and he still has to rely on the two of them to guard Youzhou, and the promotion of officials to the knighthood is the least, so that even if others give you their lives, they will do their best.

  What's more, an official like Youzhou Governor Youzhou Assassin Shi is just a silk book stamped with the emperor's seal, how much does it cost? For Sima Shi, it is completely a matter of benefit and no expense.

  However, Cao Liang's movements still worried Sima Shi, and the news that came back earlier said that Biqiu Jian tried to collude with Cao Liang and sent his younger brother Biqiu Xiu to Bingzhou, apparently the two sides reached a consensus in some aspects, and then Biqiu Jian's intention to rebel happened.

  Fortunately, Sima Yi laid this chess piece in Youzhou earlier, assassinated Biqiu Jian at a critical time, and avoided the situation in Youzhou from getting out of control.

  But after Cao Liang failed to collude with Biqiu Jian, would he be angry and brazenly send troops, which became a question that Sima Shi had to consider.

  Sure enough, half a month after the Youzhou incident, Sima Shi suddenly received an urgent report from Lu Zhao, saying that the main army of the Bingzhou Army went east out of Weize Pass and attacked Jingcheng Pass, and the situation in Jizhou was critical.

  Is this Cao Liang's revenge? Perhaps, Cao Liang conspired to collude with Biqiu Jian, but in the end he did not succeed, and it was inevitable that he would jump off the wall in a hurry, and this time he sent troops to Jizhou, which seemed to be venting his anger.

  But what made Sima Shi a little strange was that if Cao Liang wanted to avenge Biqiu Jian, he should have attacked Youzhou, why did he suddenly send troops to Jizhou, which seemed to have made a directional mistake.

  Maybe Cao Liang is just using this as a disguise, he didn't mean to avenge Biqiu Jian at all, but took the opportunity to attack Jizhou, wanting to annex Jizhou in one fell swoop?

  Judging from the urgent report that Lu Zhao has sent back at present, Chen Bing of the Bingzhou Army is in Jingcheng Pass, and he does have the intention of taking Jizhou in the east, but is the truth really that simple?

  Sima Shi faintly felt that there was a hidden article here, with his understanding of Cao Liang, this son was cunning and tricky, and ordinary people really couldn't guess his true intentions.

  Sima Shi sent a letter to Lü Zhao, asking him to pay close attention to Cao Liang's movements and beware of his plans to attack the west while strictly guarding the Jingcheng Pass.

  But as a result, Sima Shi's letter has not been sent to the front line of Jingcheng Pass, where there was a sneak attack on the Flying Fox Pass by the state army to capture Guangchang, Lu Zhao received Sima Shi's letter, lamented that everything was unfortunately Sima Shi's words, Cao Liang really used it is a plan to attack the east and the west, and the attack on Jingcheng Pass is a false move, the purpose is to attract the attention of the Jizhou army.

  Sima Shi is like a god, but unfortunately this letter came a little late, a bit of an afterthought, if Sima Shi's letter could arrive earlier, maybe Lu Zhao would consider strengthening the defense of Guangchang, and send troops to reinforce Guangchang when it was attacked by the Bingzhou army, maybe the situation would not be so unbearable.

  Fortunately, after Cao Liang captured Guangchang, he did not wave his army to the south and came to attack Jizhou, but waved his army north to fight Youzhou, which made Lu Zhao a little relieved, as long as Jizhou is fine, Cao Liang's love to fight there has little to do with him, Youzhou's affairs, there are people from Youzhou to solve it, and Lu Zhao does not have to bear that responsibility.

  However, regarding the whereabouts of the Bingzhou army, Lu Zhao still truthfully reported to Sima Shi, and he still didn't dare to hide anything, as for how Sima Shi made a decision, it was Sima Shi's business.

  After Sima Shi received the report, he was not the slightest happy because he had guessed Cao Liang's attempt, on the contrary, he frowned, deeply worried about the situation in Youzhou.

  Youzhou has been the world of Biqiu Jian for more than ten years, his power tree has deep roots, and the branches are luxuriant, Wang Ji is relying on the means of sneak attack to assassinate Biqiu Jian, if you rely on a clear knife and a gun, ten Wang Ji may not be able to deal with Biqiu Jian.

  Wei Qian and Wang Qi rose to the throne by assassinating Biqiu Jian, although in terms of meritorious deeds, they replaced Biqiu Jian and became the new governor of Youzhou and the assassin of Youzhou, but Sima Shi understood that it was too early for them to really replace Biqiu Jian's influence in Youzhou, and their prestige was not enough to gain a foothold in Youzhou.

  If Cao Liang really had to lead his troops to attack Jizhou, Sima Shi didn't have to worry too much, after all, the Sima family had a deep foundation in Jizhou, and Cao Liang would not be able to capture Jizhou in a short time.

  Moreover, Jizhou and Luoyang are relatively close to each other, and if there is any emergency, it is more convenient for Sima Shi to send troops to rescue. And Youzhou is thousands of miles away, once something happens, the whip is out of reach!

  In fact, Sima Shi would rather make a mistake in his own judgment, Cao Liang really just came to attack Jizhou, instead of attacking Youzhou in the east and west, in that case, Sima Jun would be more calm in terms of coping.

  It's a pity that it backfired, Cao Liang locked the target of the attack on Youzhou from the beginning, and the attack on Jingcheng Pass was just a smoke bomb, which confused Lu Zhao, but also confused Wei Qian and Wang Qi, and it is estimated that Wei Qian and Wang Qi were also underprepared for this.

  Sima Shi is very worried about the defense of Youzhou, Wei Qian and Wang Qi presided over the overall situation of Youzhou, how long has it been, it will take time to clear the remnants of Biqiu Jian's henchmen and integrate the army and forces of Youzhou, but Cao Liang did not give them any time at all, from the death of Biqiu Jian to the killing of the state army to the city of Youzhou, it was less than a month, in such a short period of time, no matter how great Wei Qian and Wang Ji were, it was impossible to make Youzhou's defense system watertight.

  Sima Shi could only hope that Wei Qian and Wang Qi could recognize the situation, stick to the city, and not rush forward, so that they might be able to hold out until the arrival of reinforcements.

  Because Sima Shi has learned the strength of the Bingzhou cavalry on the battlefield of Bingzhou, there is no cavalry in the world that can compete with it, and of course the Youzhou cavalry can't do it.
