The most powerful general in the Three Kingdoms

People who have no long-term worries must have immediate worries.

This is true for ordinary people in the city, let alone a wealthy family?

As a wealthy family in Hanoi, the Sima family also had to think about their future.

Who is Zhou Cheng?

A thief, but this thief is not that thief.

Those who steal pearls will be punished, and those who steal the country will be punished by the princes.

Zhou Cheng already has the power to steal the world. He doesn't mention the future and just focuses on the present.

If Zhou Cheng seizes the four states of Yong, Liang, Qing, and You and dominates the north, how should the Sima family get along with Zhou Cheng?

It is true that the Sima family can move south, to Yangzhou, Jingzhou, or even Jiaozhou, or cross Wuguan and enter Yizhou.

However, when you move your family, what will you encounter along the way?

This isn't just about moving.

The reason why aristocratic families have influence is because they are rooted in the local area, and the township parties and clans are dependent on them.

For example, the Sima family, the township party clan in Wen County, is still attached to the Sima family.

The Sima family also sent troops to respond to Huangfu Song, and also sent his children to serve in Huangfu Song's army.

In short, if you can provide money, food and people, the Sima family will not be left behind.

And now Sima Jun is old.

He is 64 years old. Although he is still the head of the Sima family, he knows that his days are numbered.

These are troubled times, and every decision made by the Sima family is related to the survival of the family.

Therefore, Sima Juncai sent his eldest grandson Sima Lang to visit Cai Yong.

On the one hand, it expresses that Sima has no intention of becoming an enemy of Zhou, and on the other hand, it is also testing the waters.

Of course, as a wealthy family, if you want to pass it on, you must have the means.

Sima Jun was still considering whether he should place bets on the princes of Henan.

Such as Cao Cao, Yuan Shu, Sun Jian, and even Liu Zhang of Yizhou.

These princes are all under Sima Jun's observation.

While he is still alive, decide the general direction of the family.

The Zhao family in Yecheng and the Zhen family in Wuji have now grown stronger.

Zhen became the only official businessman in Zhou Cheng, running all the businesses in Jizhou.

"Cough cough cough……"

Sima Jun coughed.

At this time, Sima Fang was waiting on the side. After his father could even count, Sima Fang immediately handed over the silk handkerchief.

Sima Jun wiped the phlegm from his mouth with a silk handkerchief.

At this time, footsteps came from outside the house.

After a while, a young man came outside the house and was waiting outside the door.

The Sima family's tutoring is extremely strict.

Even after his son became an adult, he still asked,"Don't dare to come in if you don't have orders, don't dare to sit if you don't have orders, don't dare to say anything unless you ask questions."

At this time, what was waiting outside the door was Sima Fang's second son. Their son Sima Yi.

Sima Yi had a strategist mind when he was young. Anyone who met him would say that Sima Yi was smart, sensible, decisive and heroic.

Sima Jun and Sima Fang also thought that the second son was much smarter than the eldest son Sima Lang.

Sima Jun To Sima Yi, he said:"Come in."

After Sima Yi saluted, he entered the house.

At this time, Sima Jun asked:"A few days ago, I sent your eldest brother to Yecheng to visit Cai Yong. Do you know about this?"

Sima Yi replied:"My father-in-law is thinking about protecting the Sima family all the time."

Sima Jun looked at Sima Yi and said seriously:"The Sima family must not be cut off."

The Sima family is the descendant of Chongli, the son of Gaoyang, that is, Xia Guan Zhurong.

From ancient times to the Shang Dynasty, the position of Xia Guan was inherited from generation to generation. In the Zhou Dynasty, Xia Guan was renamed Sima.

During the reign of King Xuan of Zhou Dynasty, the ancestor Cheng Boxiu's father had meritorious service in pacifying Xu Fang. Sima was given the surname of his family.

Sima Yi's twelfth generation ancestor Sima Yan followed Xiang Yu to destroy the Qin Dynasty, was granted the title of King of Yin, and established Hanoi as his capital.

During the Han Dynasty, it became Hanoi County, and the Sima family has lived here for generations.

Sima Yi said:"Kid, please keep this in mind. Don't dare to slack off."

Although he is only eighteen years old, Sima Yi knows the plans of his grandfather and father.

If there are no accidents, Sima may surrender the thief.

Of course, if there are other choices, Sima will also consider it.

……

February 196 AD.

Zhou Cheng continued to besiege Jinyang City.

More than 100,000 civilians were forcibly recruited and a wooden wall built to surround Jinyang.

Yuan Shao in Jinyang City now adopts the strategy of delaying and waiting for change.

There is enough food, grass, and troops in the city to last the entire army for more than a year.

Zhou Cheng mobilized so many troops, including military garrisons.

The soldiers in the military camp will be involved in farming and production after the beginning of spring.

If Zhou Cheng continues to besiege the city, there will be problems with Jizhou's farming this year.

At the same time, Yuan Shao had already sent his second son Yuan Xi and his youngest son Yuan Shang to Yongzhou.

There is also the proton Yuan Tan who was sent to Jincheng.

If the war in Liangzhou eases within a year, Han Sui will lead his army.

Plus the Yongzhou army that Yuan Xi went to recruit.

There might still be a chance to defeat Zhou Cheng and counterattack in a big way.

On the other hand, Zhou Cheng really had no intention of withdrawing his troops at all.

Moreover, in the camp, Zhou Cheng was sending people to dig tunnels.

Digging tunnels into Jinyang and making a surprise attack on Jinyang City.

Since it was a surprise attack, Yuan Shao couldn't know about it.

Therefore, Zhou Cheng occasionally sent people to call for formation in front of the city.

Zhao Yun, Taishi Ci, Dian Wei and others took turns to fight with Yan Liang, Wen Chou and others.

After killing several more of Yuan Shao's generals, Yuan Shao could no longer avoid the battle.
