As for the state of Wu in the southeast, it has been quiet recently, but Zhang Zhao, a veteran of Soochow, passed away one after another, followed by Sun Quan’s most valued eldest son, Sun Deng, who died young. It can be said that it is the sorrow of the whole Soochow!

Bai Ren knew that Sun Quan was very uninitiated in choosing an heir. Originally, Sun Quan's eldest son, Sun Deng, was the best heir. However, Sun Quan's eldest son, Sun Deng, died too early, and even lived much shorter than his father. However, Sun Quan didn't die until he was nearly 70 years old, and his son and grandson Deng died young when he was in his 20s.

Later, Sun Quan appointed his second son, Sun He, as the prince. As a result, Sun Quan favored his third son, Sun Ba, the king of Lu, so a fight broke out between the prince and King Lu in Soochow. In the end, Sun Quan became so confused that he abolished The loss of the prince made the prince depressed and unhappy, and killed his other son, King Sunba of Lu.

In the end, Sun Quan was about to die, and he pointed out that his youngest son, Sun Liang, was the emperor. However, Sun Liang was too young, and the final government was all in the hands of others, which also led to the chaos of the Sun Wu regime in the later period. situation.

Sun Quan's side is relatively quiet, after all, there is still Lu Xun sitting in the Soochow area.

As for the Shu Han, after Zhuge Liang learned that Meng Da lost Shangyong, he directly scolded Wei Yan who had not reached Shangyong, and finally learned that the entire Shangyong had fallen into the hands of Cao Wei, so he could only sigh helplessly In one breath, in the end, I plan to make preparations to pacify the Nanban area in the south before the Northern Expedition.

Bai Ren is now very leisurely and naturally leaves some people to study and study.

Ever since Bai Ren became the Taiwei and Taifu in the court, many civil and military officials handed over their sons to Bai Ren, wanting him to be their teacher.

Of course, Bai Ren is not a very casual person. He will not accept others as his apprentices just because he looks at other people's families or official positions. Still accepted a few very powerful apprentices.

Bai Ren originally had several apprentices, and the eldest apprentice was a good recruit, and he was following the great general Cao Zhen in Chang'an in the west.

As for the second apprentice, Ding Feng, he left the embrace of his master a long time ago, and now he has defected to Soochow, and he is the prefect of Jiangxia in Soochow.

The third apprentice, Deng Ai, can be said to be the most outstanding among the few apprentices accepted in the early days. Now he is serving as the governor of Yanzhou. He is a relatively young local official in the entire court. Of course, Bai Ren also contributed to this.

The fourth apprentice, Gongsun Xu, this apprentice was the son of Gongsun Zan, the White Horse General in the North, and now he is guarding the Liaodong area with his master.

And the fifth apprentice Xiahouba, as the highest-ranking child of the Xiahou family, is currently guarding the south as the general of Cao Wei.

These apprentices are not only as simple as Bai Ren's apprentices, but their avatars are also Bai Ren's assistants, and they will also become the assistants of their descendants in the future.

And Bai Ren's sixth apprentice is Chen Qian, the son of Sikong Chen Jiao. He is only in his early eighteenth year, but as the son of Sikong Chen Jiao, Chen Qian is also a different kind of student. What he learned from Bai Ren is not literature, It's Wu, who doesn't seem to care about the inheritance from father to son at all, but Chen Qian, as the future family of Xuzhou, Bai Ren not only takes a fancy to his future talent, but also his future identity.

Bai Ren's seventh apprentice is somewhat similar to the sixth apprentice. This person is the head of the civil servants of the entire Cao Wei regime, Chen Tai, the son of Shang Shuling Chen Qun, and Chen Tai's father is the civil servant in the current government. First of all, Chen Tai and his father had completely different views, but she wanted to become a general, and finally, under his father's leadership, she joined Bai Ren's school.

Bai Ren's eighth apprentice is also a famous figure in history. He has a relationship with his third apprentice Deng Ai. Face up to history, fashion and Deng Ai broke through the land of Bashu together. The youngest son is very smart. In the end, it was not Zhong Yao who came to ask Bai Ren to accept Zhonghui as his apprentice, but Bai Ren directly approached Zhong Yao and explained his desire to accept Zhonghui as an apprentice.

Zhong Yao saw that Bai Ren's status was very noble, and he was also very capable. It is also possible for his son to plate a layer of gold on him.In the end, he quickly agreed, so that his eight-year-old son was handed over to Bai Ren.

Bai Ren's ninth apprentice is also a very famous figure in history. Bai Ren saw him at a funeral.

Jia Kui, who was shot by the right servant of the Wei State, passed away early this year, but Jia Kui left behind an orphan and widow, and the orphan is crying very depressed on the day of the funeral, which makes people think he is very There is filial piety, and Bai Ren also saw this young man and found that he has a unique talent in intelligence, even better than the Zhong Hui he just received.

This child who lost his father was Jia Kui's youngest son, Jia Chong. He was also a well-known figure in history.

Although this person's reputation is not good, but this person's ability is very powerful. After all, the first civil servant is not something you can do if you want to, and this person is very loyal to Sima.

In the end, Bai Ren considered again and again, and he still took Jia Chong into his family, intending to train Jia Chong to be a counselor for his son's descendants.

Bai Ren's last apprentice was Xia Houxuan, the son of Xia Houshang who passed away not long ago. Of course, Xia Houxuan was not accepted by Bai Ren on his own initiative, but Xia Houba, Xia Houxuan's uncle, wrote a letter to ask his teacher to accept Xiahouxuan.

Bai Ren thought for a while, Xia Houxuan in history was also one of the best figures in the later period of Cao Wei, and he was a civil servant who was very good at handling government affairs. Now he might as well win over the Xiahou family first, and maybe he can get Xiahou when he is about to launch a coup. The support of the family, if the fake monkey family does not support it, it will be neutral. After all, after Cao Pi's death, the relationship between Xiahou's family and Cao's family is not so close.

Now Bai Ren has taken in these apprentices in a short period of time in order to pave the way for his successor in the future.

As the Taiwei and Taifu of the current dynasty, Bai Ren could of course call his subordinates to form his own staff. In addition to the original people serving him, Bai Ren also anxiously recruited many people to become his staff.

For example, Fu Gan from Liaodong, the counselor of Gongsun Yuan in history, and Heng Fan from Luoyang, who was later Cao Wei's chief minister, Cao Shuang's think tank, and the counselor who made suggestions that Cao Shuang refused to listen to. In the end, Cao Shuang failed and was rejected. After Sima Yi caught him, he called Cao Shuang a guy who is a hero and a pig. Of course, the descendants of this person are also very powerful.It was the constant temperature that subverted the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

So much so that in history, Fu Gu, Sima Shi's think tank, and Wang Su, the father-in-law of his son Bai Ji, eventually became Bai Ren's staff.

Now, a new group with Bai Ren as the center has been established in order to follow Bai Ren. In the future, since Bai Ren can lead his confidantes and his disciples, he will finally establish a new order dynasty.

Even if he can't establish a new order, Bai Ren still has his son and descendants. Now Bai Ren's foreshadowing is getting farther and farther away, and at the same time, his ambition is getting heavier and heavier. Now he is not willing to be in the hands of others. chess pieces.

9 Chapter Thirty

A day passed, and on the surface, it seemed that nothing had happened. A conspiracy was slowly approaching the Huainan area in the southeast direction.

"Can this really work?" At this time, Sun Quan looked at a young man in a large robe with a serious face, frowned slightly, and said to the young man in a heavy tone.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, if you succeed, you will definitely be able to take the land of Huainan in one fell swoop." The young man looked at Sun Quan in front of him with a serious expression, and said to Sun Quan in a serious tone.

The young man was none other than Zhou Bing, the current Poyang prefect. Seeing Sun Quan's serious expression, Zhou Bing nodded.

Today's Sun Quan has captured Jingzhou, and now occupies the two places of Soochow and Jingzhou, but today's Sun Quan wants to further expand his power, he must win the Huainan area.

The Huainan area is located in the north of Soochow, and it is the throat of Soochow. If Huainan is seized, Soochow will face a flat plain area. By then, all the way to the north, it will surely achieve great things.

In the past, Sun Quan did not dare to attack Huainan because the defender of Huainan was Cao Wei's general Bai Ren, a young and terrifying guy.

Now Bai Ren's status has long been lost. He was successfully transferred to the central government by Cao Wei, and was appointed as the Taifu and Taiwei of Cao Wei today. It can be said that he is one of the top officials in Cao Wei today.

Since Bai Ren left the Huainan area, Sun Quan mobilized his troops to attack Huainan for a long time.

It's just that the current Huainan defender is Cao Wei's great Sima Cao Xiu. Cao Xiu used to be regarded as Bai Ren's subordinate, not to mention that Cao Xiu also suffered losses in the Soochow army before, so he firmly remembered Bai Ren's confession before leaving. his words.

It is the best policy not to hold on, he will force him to be strong, I will guard my wall, no matter how the enemy attacks or provokes, Cao Xiu and his army will not come out of Hefei City.

Although Soochow's navy is the best in the world, it is very poor on land, not to mention the siege battle. In addition, Sun Quan has the title of Sun Shiwan, no matter how many troops there are, it is difficult to break through the lower layers Defensive Hefei City.

In the end, Sun Quan led his soldiers to attack Hefei City for almost seven or eight years without any results. As a result, many civil and military officials, cultural relic officials from aristocratic families, opposed Sun Quan's use of troops against Hefei.

Sun Quan was a little helpless, and even reprimanded these civil and military officials in the early court, so that Sun Quan wished to pull out the saber from his waist and behead them in the hall.

However, although Sun Quan is proclaimed emperor today, the aristocratic families of Soochow still have far more rights than Sun Quan, so Sun Quan has to look at the faces of the aristocratic families from time to time, and Sun Quan also remembered his brother Sun Ce's last words at this time .

Sure enough, if he wanted to control the power in his own hands, he still needed to take action against these aristocratic families of Soochow, but now the aristocratic families were deeply entrenched, and besides, there was still Cao Wei in the north, so Sun Quan didn't dare to deal with the aristocratic families at all.

After all, if the aristocratic family is to be moved now, it will inevitably lead to chaos in Soochow. If Cao Wei takes the opportunity to cross the Yangtze River at that time, the Soochow Empire that Sun Quan painstakingly built will be destroyed in one fell swoop.

So Sun Quan also cultivated the children of the poor family, and Zhou Dory, who is now offering advice to Sun Quan to attack Huainan, is one of the children of the poor family that Sun Quan cultivated.

"Now, hurry up and implement this plan. I want to show the aristocratic families of Soochow that I, Sun Quan, can also attack Huainan." Sun Quan's eyes were full of ambition at this time, and then he looked at the world outside the window in the distance, and his tone was a little bit He said seriously to Zhou Dory who was on the side.

Zhou Bream nodded to Sun Quan in front of him, bowed slightly and saluted, and then slowly exited Sun Quan's room, ready to carry out his trick against Cao Wei.

In Huainan in the north, Cao Xiu, the great Sima in Shouchun, is calmly handling the military affairs of Huainan with a positive face, while on the other side is the current Shouchun prefect Bu Zhi, who is really the current Taiwei Bairen. Uncle.

Cao Xiu had originally sneered at Bu Zhi, who had become the prefect by relying on his kinship, thinking that he had no abilities, and was just a dude from a wealthy family.

It's just that later, Bai Ren's eldest brother-in-law showed his ability, not only managed the entire Shouchun City to be rich and rich, but also built a very complete defense in the city, which made Cao Xiu look at him with admiration.

And now Cao Xiu is not only the great Sima, but also the governor of Yangzhou, so he handed over the government affairs of the governor of Yangzhou to Bu Zhi, and Cao Xiu, who is in charge of military affairs, handed over the political affairs to Bu Zhi.

Bu Zhi lived up to Cao Xiu's great trust, and managed the war-torn Huainan land in an orderly manner, vaguely reminiscent of the rich Huainan land of the Han Dynasty.

"General, there is a person outside the city who claims to be an envoy from the Eastern Wu Dynasty and wants to see the general." At this moment, a soldier came to Cao Xiu in a hurry, looked at Cao Xiu in front of him, and spoke calmly. Following Cao Xiu said.

"Emissary from Dongwu, I don't know what the hell Sun Quan is going to do, just bring him in." Cao Xiu's expression became a little hesitant when he heard what the soldier in front of him said. Said calmly to the soldiers in front of him.
