The news of the annihilation of the Youzhou army quickly spread to Luoyang, and after Sima Shi heard the news, he was speechless for a long time, sat for a long time, and finally turned into a long sigh.

In fact, the defeat of the Youzhou army was also expected by Sima Shi, after all, after the loss of the land of Liaoxi in Youzhou, the situation in Liaodong has become dangerous, Wei Qian and Wang Qi retreated to Linyu Pass, although on the surface it seems to block the offensive of the Bingzhou army, but in fact it can not solve the dilemma of Youzhou, unless Sima Shi can send troops to reinforce, otherwise the situation in Youzhou can only deteriorate further, and finally reach the point where it is difficult to control.

However, the matter of sending troops is simple to say, but it is extremely difficult to achieve, because the cavalry team of Sima Jun is still being rebuilt and does not have the ability to fight in the field, at this time Sima Shi sent troops, basically in vain.

Sima Shi has a clear understanding of this, if Sima Yi left Sima Shi the greatest wealth, is his life's admonition, small unbearable will be chaotic, now Sima Jun is at a critical moment of recuperation, if Sima Shi hastily sent troops to Youzhou, it is likely that not only can not solve the crisis in Youzhou, but will let himself fall deeper and deeper, affecting the overall situation of the world. Therefore, from a strategic point of view, Sima Shi regarded Youzhou as an outcast, and he adopted Sima Lun's plan to recruit 300,000 troops in Jizhou, and strengthened Jizhou's defense force to ensure that the southward movement of the Bingzhou army could be blocked.

As for the situation of the Youzhou Army, it can only be resigned to fate, whether this abandoned son of Linyu Pass can exert a little residual heat, Sima Shi no longer has any hope, in short, the Annihilation of the Youzhou Army is completely reasonable, even if there are some regrets, but it will never shake Sima Division's strategic deployment.

After the loss of Youzhou, Jizhou became the first target of the Bingzhou army, but after Zhong Hui arrived in Jizhou, he boldly executed Sima Shi's order, and the original recruitment target of 300,000 troops has been basically achieved. You must know that these young men are the main labor force, almost 70 percent of Jizhou's agricultural production, and after these young men enlisted in the army, a large amount of land was abandoned, and Jizhou's economy also tended to be on the verge of collapse.

For this reason, He Zeng, Zheng Chong, and others, ministers of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China, once jointly signed a concert, believing that the defense of Jizhou is of course important, but it is so reckless and militaristic, I am afraid that in the long run, the country will not be a country.

Of course, Sima Shi is also more clear about the stakes in this, but at present, the cavalry is unavailable, and the field is weak, if Jizhou does not have sufficient troops, how to resist the attack of the Bingzhou army?

It can only be said that the current plan is just an expedient measure, in order to hold Jizhou, it is also necessary to make some sacrifices, once the situation in Jizhou becomes stable, and the cavalry of the Sima army also has the ability to fight, then it is not impossible for the 300,000 Jizhou army to disarm and return to the field.

Therefore, in a special period, special things must be done, fortunately, the area controlled by Sima Shi is not only Jizhou, and the whole people are soldiers in Jizhou, which does not mean that other states do the same, and other states still maintain the status quo, so that Sima Shi can use the food and other materials produced by other states to feed Jizhou, although the taxes in other states are tighter, and the burden of Jizhou should be shared with other states, but although on the whole, it is not within the unbearable range, and when this difficulty is overcome, The situation will change. There are also ministers who propose to build tuntian in Jizhou, and gather the 300,000 recruited people together to carry out military cantonment, so that they can take into account the defensive and combat tasks on the one hand, and on the other hand, they will not delay agricultural production.

In fact, this is also a solution, Cao Cao didn't do this back then, and now Wei also implements the military cantonment system in Huainan, preparing for war and preparing for famine, and defending against the invasion of Wu at the same time, it can also produce millions of grains every year, although it can not completely solve the supply of grain and grass for the Huainan army, but it is also a great supplement.

If we make full use of these 300,000 troops, we can produce tens of millions of grains every year, and Jizhou's economic problems can be effectively solved, and there is no need to increase the burden on other states.

At the beginning of this proposal, Sima Shi was also a little moved, while guarding the city, while carrying out tuntian, it can indeed be done without delay, Jizhou is not short of food, and the people will naturally have fewer complaints, which can still play a key role in stabilizing the overall situation of Jizhou.

Sima Shi wrote a letter to Zhong Hui to ask for his opinion, after all, Zhong Hui was in Jizhou and had the most right to speak.

However, to Sima Shi's surprise, Zhong Hui politely rejected this proposal, Zhong Hui believed that the law of Tuntian was not impossible, but at this time in Jizhou, it was not easy to implement, even if it was to be implemented, it must wait for two or three years, and when the conditions are ripe, it is not too late to implement it.

The main reason why Zhong Hui said that the conditions were not ripe was the quality of the soldiers; the Huainan Army had been implementing Tuntian for many years, and most of its garrisons were old troops transferred from other places, and even if they were not trained for a short time, they still had complete combat effectiveness.

In order to allow these new troops to initially establish combat effectiveness, Zhong Hui is seizing the time to conduct drills, from morning to evening, all the time is not invested in drills.

In this way, the result is difficult to satisfy Zhong Hui, these peasant recruits, the most lacking is discipline, every drill is a chaotic scene, the practice is a mess, if at this time, and the state army suddenly launched an attack on Jizhou, Zhong Hui does not know if these newly recruited troops can be useful. The drill is difficult to work in a short period of time, Zhong Hui is preparing to increase the amount of training, intensive drills, at this time, Luoyang suddenly came out of a message to Tuntian, which really made Zhong Hui unacceptable, Tuntian is farming, but these farmers are the old business, technically speaking, there is no difficulty.

But in this way, the field is planted, but the training of the army can not be guaranteed, the army without combat effectiveness, after all, is a plate of scattered sand, Zhong Hui served as the governor of Hebei, is to be responsible for the defense of the entire area north of the Yellow River, this is the focus of his duties, he must do a good job, the defense is not done well, to engage in tuntian, isn't this nonsense?
