Sima Zhao drank cup after cup, and it seemed that only wine could anesthetize his mind and soul.

The people brought by Sima Zhao didn't dare to persuade him at all, Sima Zhao's temper was very clear to the people around him, and if he tried to persuade him at this time, not only would it be useless, but it might also lead to death.

No one dared to give their lives in vain, they could only stand faithfully outside the private room to ensure Sima Zhao's absolute safety, at least how much wine Sima Zhao had drunk, or how much more wine he would drink, had nothing to do with them.

But someone still dared to stop him.

"Second son, a drink can be pleasant, but getting drunk hurts your body, you have already drunk a lot, and if you drink again, it may affect your body."

Sima Zhao raised his drunken eyes, smiled, and said, "Gonglu, why, you also came here to borrow wine to drown your sorrows?" ”

The person who came was Jia Chong, because Jia Cheng, the magistrate of Zhangwu County, betrayed the country to the enemy, which led to the destruction of the Youzhou Army in Zhangwu, Jia Chong was implicated to a certain extent, was demoted to a first-class official position, and was also fined for one year.

Jia Chong, who was fined for one year, didn't care, after all, a year's death was only 2,000 stones, for Jia Chong, who had a big family, it was just a drop in the bucket, but being fined one level made him feel distressed, after all, it was not easy to be promoted, and he finally climbed to the position of 2,000 stones, and stepped into the ranks of high-ranking officials, but he was not careful, and he was beaten back to his original shape, which is really infuriating.

In fact, the relationship between Jia Cheng and him is also relatively estranged, although they are of the same race, but after all, they are out of Wufu, and the relationship is usually not so close, but this time Jia Cheng gave Jia Chong a generous gift, asking him to give a few good words in front of Sima Shi and find him a good errand.

Because of this, it made Sima Shi remember the relationship between Jia Chong and Jia Cheng, this time Zhang Wu's defeat and Jia Cheng's surrender to the enemy, so that Sima Shi was angry, he deliberately sent someone to investigate the matter thoroughly, and confirmed that the defeat was caused by Jia Cheng, and it was precisely because he refused to enter the city that the Youzhou army was the most annihilated, and Jia Cheng after the defeat of the Youzhou army, under the threat of the siege of the state army, he took the initiative to abandon the city and surrender to the state army.

After Jia Cheng surrendered to the enemy, Sima Shi had no choice but to exile all the people in Jia Cheng's three clans. Originally, Jia Chong was only of the same clan as him, but the relationship was estranged and he couldn't be implicated, but because of saying good things to Jia Cheng, Sima Shi was also very annoyed with Jia Chong, what kind of people are these, are you embarrassed to recommend them to me?

However, Sima Shi remembered that Jia Chong was still meritorious, so he was only lightly punished, and he was punished by one level and punished slightly.

Of course, Jia Chong didn't dare to have an opinion on Sima Shi, if it weren't for Sima Shi's nostalgia, this time Jia Chong would be a big lintel.

Jia Chong was extremely depressed, it was this Jia Cheng who caused him trouble, originally for the sake of the same clan and clan, Jia Chong was ready to help a little, but he didn't expect it to be on fire.

So Jia Chong ran to Qingyufang to relax, but he didn't expect to bump into Sima Zhao here, and saw that Sima Zhao was drunk like a pile of mud, so he stepped forward to stop him from drinking.

Although Sima Zhao was drunk, he had not completely lost consciousness, and laughed: "Come on, come on, I will toast you, let's get drunk and relieve a thousand sorrows, get drunk today, and forget all the unhappy things." ”

Jia Chong didn't dare to let Sima Zhao drink it anymore, so he instructed the little servant to take away all the wine on the table, and bring another bowl of sobering soup over, and persuaded bitterly: "Second son, why do you bother, if you drink too much wine, you will hurt your body." Knowing that you are in a bad mood and punished, no one can be happy, but you also know that the general has good intentions, and at this point, you have to support him. ”

Sima Zhao stared at his blood-red eyes and said with a sneer: "Let me support him?" Joke, now that he has already been in power, he has nothing to do, and he has long forgotten his brotherhood, so why do I need to support him, it's almost the same as carrying the black pot for him. ”

Jia Chong said: "Second son, what do you say, you are wrong to blame the general, he is thinking of your brotherhood, so he made such a decision." This time, Dongxing was defeated and suffered heavy losses, so naturally someone must stand up and take responsibility, so as to block the mouth of Youyou, and the second son is on the Huainan front line, so as to know who should bear this responsibility the most. That's right, it was Zhuge Dan, the general of Zhengdong, who, as the main general of the front line, had improper command that ultimately led to the defeat of Dongxing. But the current situation in Huainan is also clearer than anyone else, Zhuge Ke's victory, proud, Wu army in Dongxing instead of withdrawing, but a large increase in troops, intending to invade Huainan, the war over there is about to break out, if at this moment to change generals, I am afraid the happiest, is Zhuge Ke. ”

Sima Zhao was silent, he had just returned to Beijing from Huainan, so the situation in Huainan was more familiar to him than anyone else, after the victory of the Wu army in Dongxing, he did not return to Jianye, but instead increased his troops on a large scale to Dongxing, even a fool could see clearly the Wu army's attempt, Zhuge Ke gathered the army, and wanted to try to take advantage of the victory and seize Huainan.

So at this time, it is impossible for those commanders on the front line to be replaced, and it is a taboo for soldiers to change generals in battle, since the rebellion of Wang Ling was quelled, the defense of Huainan has always been responsible for Zhuge Dan, at this time, if the main general is replaced, it is bound to have a great impact on Huainan's military affairs, and the entire defense system of Huainan is likely to be overturned and rebuilt.

But if it is really demolished and rebuilt, then all Zhuge Dan's previous defensive preparations in Huainan are likely to be in vain.

Moreover, Zhuge Ke of Wu State will not give the Wei army a chance to rebuild the defense of Huainan, if the Wei army changes generals at this time, it will be in the hands of Zhuge Ke.

Therefore, Sima Shi will not hold Zhuge Dan accountable, even if Zhuge Dan needs to bear all the responsibility for the defeat of Dongxing, Sima Shi must also open the net and maintain the status quo of the Huainan front, which is the wisest choice.

But someone must take responsibility for this, in order to calm the anger of the inside and outside, in the battle of Dongxing, too many people died in the field, if Sima Shi lightly opened this page, it is likely to be dissatisfied with many people, so Sima Shi decided that someone must take the blame for this matter.
