Sima Yan sent Sima You away just to keep a root for the Sima family. However, in this vast desert, a team of only a few people, can we take Sima You out and where will we go after we go out?

All of this is an unknown number, but Sima Yan must have a gamble. If Sima You can survive, God is protecting their Sima family. If Sima You unfortunately dies, it will be just that God will abandon it, and Sima Yan can do nothing.

For Sima Yan, he was tired and could not walk anymore. This feeling of being desperate has been torturing his soul. He was powerless to struggle anymore, and in the end he could only choose to end his life by committing suicide.

If you survive and become Cao Liang's prisoner, you will only endure greater humiliation and pain. The news from Luoyang made Sima Yan almost feel in pain. Although Cao Liang did not exterminate the Sima family, all the men who survived the Sima family will suffer a shameful punishment and will be castrated.

Without the dignity of a man, what's the point of living?

This is obviously something that Sima Yan cannot accept. The Sima family was once so brilliant, but now it has fallen to such an unbearable level. Sima Yan has also been the crown prince and is even closest to the throne at one time. If he was castrated like a beast, he would rather die than accept this humiliation.

Sima Yan once had ambitious ambitions. As the eldest grandson of the Sima family, when the Sima family was at its peak, Sima Yan had great fantasies about the throne. After all, his uncle Sima Shi had no descendants. A hundred years later, his throne would naturally be inherited by the descendants of the Sima family. Sima Yan, as the eldest grandson, was the most hopeful to take over this position.

Sima Yan was also actively working in this direction. He studied military books and strategies hard, and learned the art of governing the country. He hoped that one day, he would become the lord of the nine fives and rule the world like Cao Pi.

The only time that made him feel a little disappointed was when his father Sima Zhao adopted his younger brother Sima You to his uncle Sima Shi. Sima Shi adopted this son, which was equivalent to having an heir. I am afraid that even Sima Yan, as the eldest grandson, would not be able to become the heir of the Sima family again.

But things are unpredictable. Sima Shi died in the fire, while Sima Zhao ascended the throne and established the country as Jin. Sima Yan was appointed as the crown prince. This is probably the closest moment he has ever been to the throne in his life.

But at this moment, the world's general trend has undergone drastic changes. Cao Liang's strong rise broke the Sima family's dominance. Even the Sima family could only escape to Guanzhong to survive. Although Sima Zhao ascended the throne and became emperor, the only places that the State of Jin could control were only Yongliang.

Even so, the territory of Jin State could not be preserved. Sima Zhao was only a hundred days after he became emperor, and Chang'an was immediately captured, and Sima Zhao became the shortest-lived founding emperor in history.

Although theoretically speaking, after Sima Zhao's death, Sima Yan could become the second emperor of Jin, due to the Wei army's step-by-step advance, the power of the remnant Jin was declining and could not get the support of ministers, and Sima Yan was unable to realize his dream of emperor in the end.

From Tianshui to Liangzhou and then to the Western Regions, Sima Yan not only had his dream shattered, but he was already at the end of his journey. In despair, he chose to commit suicide, which may be his best destination.

His subordinates were finally ordered to hand over his body to the pursued Wei army. In the end, the remaining thousands of people surrendered to the Wei army. The only one who was missing was Sima You.

It’s not that these subordinates don’t want to reveal Sima You’s whereabouts, and they really don’t know that before Sima Yan died, he specially arranged a few loyal and loyal people to protect Sima You and leave. As for where they were, Sima Yan didn’t know, let alone other people.

After Ma Long learned about it, he sent troops to search for it in detail in accordance with the principle of killing the roots. However, in such a vast desert, Sima You's goal was too small, and it was even more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack. In the end, Ma Long gave up the search and returned to Liangzhou with Sima Yan's body.

Sima You disappeared into the vast desert. No one could predict whether to live or die. After all, this desert has always been called the Sea of ​​Death. If it is a large group of people and sufficient supplies, there is still a chance to go out, but if the team is small or the materials are scarce, it is likely that there will be no way to survive.

Ma Long wrote the memorial and told the court about the war situation in Liangzhou. With the defeat of Tufashu Jineng and Sima Yan, the war in the entire Liangzhou was basically over. All the remnants of Sima's army surrendered, while the remnants of the Xianbei in Hexi fled to the Juyanhai area under the leadership of Ruoluo Boneng.

Ma Long sent Wen Yang to lead the Yueqi camp to continue to pursue the pursuit, and chased him to Juyanhai. In the end, if Luo Bo could only lead the remaining troops to surrender, and the Xianbei in Hexi was eventually destroyed.

All the surrendered Xianbei people were moved to Beiliu Mountain by Ma Longqiang. This is the base camp of the Xianbei in Hexi. All the surviving Xianbei people in Hexi will be concentrated here, enclosed land and banned horses, and have experience in dealing with the Xianbei in the central region. Ma Long was familiar with the handling of the Xianbei in Hexi and completed the handling of the Xianbei in Liangzhou very simply. The matter in Liangzhou was successfully resolved.

Compared to Ma Long and Wen Yang's rapid progress in Liangzhou, Deng Ai's battle with Jiang Wei in Longxi was in a deadlock.

Since Jiang Wei had already captured Xiangwu and captured the entire Longxi County, Deng Ai did not rush to advance. Instead, he set foot on the Wei River in Nan'an County, sealed the Shu army's route to advance eastward, and started a long confrontation with Jiang Wei.

The difficulties of the Shu army were the problem of food and grass. Although they obtained a large amount of food and grass after capturing Xiangwu, for the 50,000 army, these food and grass could last for several months. However, if the subsequent supply of food and grass was not enough, the Shu army still faced a dilemma.

Jiang Wei sought a quick battle, while Deng Ai focused on defending the situation and did not engage in large-scale confrontation with the Shu army. Although Deng Ai's army was not afraid of the Shu army in terms of combat power, if he could really defeat others without fighting, he would be a real master.

Jiang Wei was eager to fight to the decisive battle and sent people to the Wei army's Wei River camp to challenge it repeatedly, but Deng Aiyan attacked Sima Yi's strategy of defending Shu and could not defend it, leaving Jiang Wei with no choice.

Although Sima Yi is a hostile force, he has extremely rich experience in dealing with the Shu army. Deng Ai only needs to integrate Sima Yi's tactics and deal with Jiang Wei, it is not difficult.
