After being furious, Sima Shi quickly calmed down. Now he would not have any effect on anyone. Even if he caught He Yan and cut him into pieces, he would not be able to return to Yecheng. Therefore, the most urgent task is how to deal with the situation in front of him.

Chen Tai attacked Jingxing Pass and was in a stalemate. Since he could not get Jingxing Pass until now, Sima Shi's plan to siege the city and attack aid has never been realized.

Originally, I was hoping to transfer a batch of siege equipment from Luoyang to strengthen the strength of the team attacking Jingxing Pass and strive to seize Jingxing Pass as soon as possible to resolve the current stalemate.

Unfortunately, all this batch of supplies was destroyed by spies from the Bingzhou Army halfway, and none of them arrived at the front line. In this way, Chen Tai's army could not increase its strength. It was just empty talk to take down Jingxing Pass as soon as possible.

Of course, whether this batch of supplies is in place is no longer important. The most critical core issue is that Yecheng has been lost. Now the Bingzhou Army is like a fish bone, stuck in Sima Jun's throat, unable to spit out or swallow, which is very uncomfortable.

The Sima army attacked northern Hebei in the north, and Yecheng became the most important link in logistics supply. Once Yecheng was lost, it would mean that the Sima army's logistics supply line was cut off in the middle. Since the Sima army on the front line had sufficient combat materials, there would be no shortage of food in the short term. However, the expenditure of the 170,000 army was so high. Even if the Sima army could temporarily store food and grass supplies for a month, it would still fall into the territory of food in a month.

If this situation really happens, Sima Jun will collapse in an instant, the ice will disappear, the stars will scatter, and the army without food and grass will collapse sooner or later.

Of course, Sima Shi understood the pros and cons of the loss of Yecheng, and he must not sit idly by and wait for death. His current strategic plan must be changed.

Sima Shi quickly summoned the generals and advisers to discuss the matter together. The first thing is to discuss the possibility of regaining Yecheng. As long as Yecheng can be regained, the overall situation can be stabilized.

All the generals asked for their orders and sweared to lead a team of troops to take advantage of the opportunity when the Bingzhou army had just entered Yecheng and had a stable foothold, and attack with all their might and regain Yecheng.

Sima Shi ignored the attitude of the generals, but turned his attention to Zhong Hui. Zhong Hui had been in charge of Jizhou for more than two years, and he was familiar with Jizhou, especially Yecheng, and he could not be familiar with him anymore. Other generals took the initiative to fight, relying on their passion. Only when they actually hit the south wall would they feel a lot of headaches.

"Sji, what do you think?"

Zhong Hui shook his head gently and said, "Bei Zhi believes that since Yecheng has been lost, there is no possibility of recapturing it. It is better to move Xiangyangping and Qinghe areas, stabilize the situation and then attack."

Hu Fen was the most active when he asked for a fight. He originally thought Zhong Huihui agreed with his idea, but unexpectedly, Zhong Hui poured a basin of cold water on him. Hu Fen said in a deep voice: "Why do General Zhong need to be ambitious and destroy his own prestige? Yecheng can lose money, why can't he take it back? Someone doesn't believe in this evil general, and some are willing to issue a military order. If they cannot take it back to Yecheng, they are willing to be dealt with by military law."

Zhong Hui smiled bitterly. The defense of Yecheng was built by him. The reason why Sima Yichang lost Yecheng overnight was not that Yecheng's defense was not good, but that Sima Yichang was careless and easily fell into the trap of the Bingzhou Army. He missed one thing and ended up falling Yecheng.

Sima Yichang could lose Yecheng, but the Bingzhou Army, who had just entered Yecheng, obviously would not make such a mistake. According to the information reported by Sima Yichang, after Sima Yichang escaped from the city, the Bingzhou Army did not chase after him, so Sima Yichang finally saved his life and fled to Yangping County.

If the Bingzhou Army pursued Sima Yichang, even ten Sima Yichangs might not be able to escape.

But what made the Bingzhou army voluntarily give up the pursuit of Sima Yichang? Obviously, the Bingzhou army had more important things to do after entering the city, so they ignored Sima Yichang's escape and ignored them at all.

It is obviously not easy to make the Bingzhou Army give up such a piece of fat that is at their mouths. Only by guarding Yecheng will it be more important than pursuing Sima Yichang.

Obviously, the Bingzhou Army's leading generals knew this. Their purpose was to capture Yecheng, rather than to completely wipe out the troops defending the city. Just from the means of besieging Erque and Er, it can be seen that their target was Yecheng. As for the defenders in Yecheng, they had never cared about whether to escape or not. Whether to escape would have no effect on them. As long as they took down and defended Yecheng, their real goal was.

The main reason why Sima Yichang lost Yecheng was because of his carelessness. If Sima Yichang was asked to do it again, Yecheng might not have been lost.

Now that the Bingzhou army has been replaced to defend Yecheng, it is impossible to make the same mistake as Sima Yichang again. So even if Hu Fen leads his troops to attack Yecheng, it will be a very difficult tough problem.

Sima Yichang threw away Yecheng in the middle of the night. When he escaped, he didn't even have to bring dry food. Yecheng City had a considerable amount of food and supplies, and all of these resources fell into the hands of the Bingzhou Army. For the Bingzhou Army to defend the city, this would be a huge help.

Therefore, Zhong Hui believed that it was not a wise move for Sima's army to return to Yecheng and launch a large-scale counterattack. After all, if you want to capture a big city like Yecheng, if you send fewer troops, you will not be able to solve the problem. Mobilizing too many troops will inevitably lengthen the Sima's army's front line and disperse its troops. In this way, Cao Liang will have an opportunity to take advantage of.

You should know that the main force of the Bingzhou Army is now vanishing. It is not that they are afraid of the Sima Army, but are waiting for the opportunity on the side. Once there is a change in the Sima Army, the Bingzhou Army will pounce on it without hesitation and bit it to the vital points. If this is the case, the Sima Army will be very dangerous.

Unfortunately, most people still cannot see this dangerous existence. They are resentful of the loss of Yecheng and believe that Sima's army is fully capable of regaining Yecheng.

But Zhong Hui knew that once the lost things were really hard to get them back. The situation in Jizhou is now changing suddenly. If Sima Shi responded incorrectly, he would likely encounter a catastrophe and be in danger of destruction of the entire army. Therefore, Zhong Hui believed that counterattacking Yecheng was not feasible.
