The defeats came one after another, Jiangxia had no news. Xuzhou was occupied by the Shu army, Shouchun was captured by the Shu army, Wancheng was surrounded by the Shu army, and the Wei army, who went out from Hulao Pass, was also led by the Qiang and Di army, led by the general Qi Wannian, left by Jiang Wei, to fight back without success.

The successive messages made Xuchang City silent, and Sima Yan even had a blue face for a long time without a word of explanation. He was originally hoping to repel the Shu army and he could replace the Emperor of Wei to establish a country belonging to the Sima family. Unfortunately, Wang Jun of Jiangxia, Hu Fen of Shouchun, and Cao Gen of Guangling were all not opponents of the Shu army.

Even Du Yu was in Wancheng, he was surrounded by the three Shu troops of Liu Chan, Jiang Wei and Luo Xian, like an iron barrel, and could not move at all. How could he have the prestige of crossing the river to attack Xiangyang and winning a complete victory?

There are more than these things that are bothering, but also Yang Jun's surrender to the enemy. The Yang family is a relative of the Sima family. Yang's affairs were dealt with, and the fact that Yang and Pan Yue colluded to falsely claim military merits was also exposed. Various illegal acts, as the Sima family, must have an attitude of destroying relatives for justice, otherwise how can they establish their authority?

The power of the country was established, but the result was not as expected. The Yang family members in Xuchang were imprisoned one by one. However, in Shouchun, Yang Jun and Yang Ji brothers led their elite troops to open the city to surrender to the Shu army, and killed Hu Fen's right-hand assistant Lu Qi, allowing the Shu army to occupy Shouchun, resulting in a complete collapse of the war situation in the southeast!

The Sima family did have the attitude of destroying relatives for justice, but overestimated its prestige. The hard work of Sima Yi, Sima Shi and Sima Zhao made the Sima family's prestige reach its peak. As the successor of the third generation, everything should have been done naturally.

However, Sima Zhao was unable to stop the rampant Wu and Shu at that time, especially the development of Shu Han exceeded anyone's expectations. Sima Yan's talent, prestige and experience were not as good as Sima Zhao, and he made repeated mistakes in strategy and governance.

Just imagine as a noble relative of the Sima family, Yang needs to hold Pan Yue to get greater benefits. You can imagine the chaos in the Wei central center.

Sima Yan had no intention of killing Yang. After all, the support of many relatives of Sima was also the main force to maintain the stability of the regime. If the Yang family was killed, the panic and shock caused should not be ignored. Therefore, Sima Yan just wanted to put on an attitude, and then someone would naturally come forward to plead for Yang.

However, although Yang Qi was a little clever, he never pursued anything. A series of blows came too quickly, and there was no wise person around him, so he hurriedly notified Yang Jun in panic. Yang Jun had always believed in his younger brother's "wisdom". Seeing that Sima Yan was trying to kill him regardless of his mercy, he did not have the courage to bet Sima Yan was just a high-spirited and light-hearted move?

In the past, many people bullied the Yang family with their own power. The crimes of false reports such as the merits were caught. Coupled with Yang Yan's panic, it finally led to a tragedy!

Including the Yang family, the Yang family, was pushed out of the Meridian Gate and beheaded for public display. Even Pan Yue, Sun Chu and others were killed in the entire family! The bloody Xuchang City did not calm down because of this. Instead, everyone was afraid, not only because of the turmoil of the regime, but also because of the unstoppable power!

The Wei State could only defend Hulao Pass on the battlefield in the West. The general of Shu Han, Qi Wannian, was full of tricks, extremely brave, and his troops were even sharp. In the field battles, the Wei army was defeated repeatedly and could not get any advantage. Jiang Wei and Liu Yinken led the entire army south and entrusted the Western battlefield to Qi Wannian, so this person was naturally not an ordinary person.

Xuzhou was in danger on the eastern battlefield, and Qingzhou, Yuzhou and other places were also under the firepower of the Shu army in Shouchun. Only the Hu brothers gathered 30,000 to 40,000 troops to station in Xiaopei to resist. The memorials asking for help were sent to the residence of Duke Jin, but Sima Yan was helpless!

After three years of hard work, the Wei State did not improve much, and the energy that was seriously injured in the battle with foreign races did not recover, and the troops that had just been trained were consumed in large quantities on the eastern and western battlefields. Domestic money and grain planning have become a problem, and the national treasury has gradually become empty. Should manpower be used for farming or to join the army?

It’s not that there are no people in the Wei State, but that there are too many refugees. The people cannot live in the local area, so they can only leave their hometowns and wander around to make a living. There are many local household registrations, but the people with household registration are gone. Where should taxes and labor service be implemented?

The reason why Shu Han could gain a steady foothold in Xuzhou was not only because of the money and food from Haixi, but also because of the good governance that benefited the people, allowing refugees from all over the world to quickly gather in Xuzhou. These refugees had a higher or lower salute. After hearing about the Han family's favorable policies, who would not rush to come? Would you rather starve to death than surrender to the Han family to survive?

This further highlights the drawbacks of the Cao Wei political system. The land resources are either in the hands of the rich, or abandoned. Everyone is busy making money. How many people are willing to take care of the lives and deaths of the people?

Cao Huan, the Emperor of Wei who was imprisoned in the deep palace, was not unaware of the news outside. In the past, there were ministers in the court and Sima's lackeys coming to persuade him to give way to his throne to avoid the disaster of death, etc. However, during this period, the frequency of these lackeys coming to the palace has decreased significantly.

This can only represent two things. One is that the Sima family does not allow the general environment to usurp the throne, and the other is that the Sima family is entangled in other things and cannot take care of itself.

The only one in the world who can stop the Sima family is Shu Han! If one day Shu Han invades Xuchang and the Wei Kingdom is about to perish, will he be grateful to the Han people or hate them?

Rumors of the capital were spreading, and people were panicked. The topics of the government and the public were secretly discussing the capital, but Sima Yan was reluctant to make moves. At present, the prestige of the Sima family has dropped to the lowest point in history, and Yang Jun is in front of him. Once the capital is ordered to be moved, it is equivalent to handing over the entire Central Plains to Shu Han.

But if the capital is not moved to avoid the sharpness of the Shu army, how long can Du Yu in Wancheng support? Liu Chan in Xinye and Jiang Wei in Wancheng can change the direction of the march at any time to attack Xuchang. Xuchang only has 30,000 to 40,000 Wei troops, and he no longer dares to divide his troops to support Xiaopei in the East. He has no confidence in the face of the threat from the entire Shu Han division.

The old court officials had long been driven away by Sima Yan, and the think tank left by Sima Zhao was not in the court. At this time, although Sima Yan could rely on important officials in the court, he was already inferior in strategy. In the current Cao Wei Dynasty, there may be many people who know how to survive, but no one can match the strategic height of Shu Han...

All day long, the civil and military officials in the court were thinking and thinking one by one, and calculating, and estimating that none of them could turn the tide. The clan could only rely on Sima Yichang and Sima Gan’s two uncles, one was guarding Hulao Pass and the other guarding Hebei, and they were unable to get rid of their bodies.

The situation was originally made by Sima Yan, but there was no sound at this time. This situation was not something that ordinary people could deal with. These ministers were experts in governing the country and planning for combat was not a strong point. Sima Yan, who was frowning all day long, had to send people everywhere to invite talents.

Helplessly, everyone can see that the act of cramming the Buddha at the moment. At present, the Wei State wants no soldiers and no food. Even if Sima Zhongda is resurrected at this time, what good strategies do they have? When the country is strong, no one should use advice. These wise men choose to keep themselves alone. Who would be stupid to stand up as a scapegoat?

The counselors, including Pei Xiu, either flew far away from the mountains and could not find them, or pretended to be crazy and stupid. The envoys sent by Sima Yan left most of the Wei Kingdom, and after all, they had no gains. It may be an exaggeration to say that they had no gains. After all, these characters have their own family support behind them.

At this time, Sima Yan could do everything. The major families had their own plans, but they did not dare to stimulate the Sima family. They could not provide any solutions, but the soldiers and money were large. With the support of manpower and financial resources, Sima Yan was not able to turn against him.

At this moment, a middle-aged scholar was in a vicissitudes of life, and his desolate figure stood alone outside the door of the Jin Gong's mansion. A hint of enthusiasm was hidden in his firm eyes. It was Zhang Hua and Zhang Maoxian who had been hiding for a long time and finally got to the opportunity!
