Chapter 2114 Enemy of a lifetime
The loss of Yingzui Cliff immediately brought Sima Lun a sense of crisis. Although the Shu army suffered only more than 1,000 losses in this battle, which was relatively minor, Yingzui Cliff was the frontier defensive position of Guiniupo. After the loss of Yingzui Cliff, the Wei army's troops would approach Guiniupo, and the defense pressure of the entire Qiting Pavilion suddenly increased.
At this time, Simalun's defense line was not perfect, which brought considerable hidden dangers to the defense of the Ting.
Sima Lun was born in the Sima family and lived a life of luxury and wealth since childhood. He experienced all the wealth of the world. This time he entered Sichuan, and was recruited by Liu Chan to marry his son-in-law, and he lived another gentle and prosperous life.
The princess is not only beautiful, but also gentle and charming. She spends her spring night in the lotus tent, and she can't tell you the whole story. The men in Chengdu, looking up at Sima Lun, who is standing at the peak of her life, are envious. If there is such a life experience as Sima Lun in this life, even if she dies now, this life will be worth it.
But for Simalun, he felt extremely depressed. Even though the princess was born in the Sima family, she had never seen any kind of beauty. She had passed by flowers and had no leaves touching her body. Simalun was not particularly passionate about the love between men and women, and could even be said to be a little indifferent.
Perhaps it was because his shoulders carried too many things, or perhaps because he had experienced countless storms, Sima Lun, who had already seen all the vicissitudes of the world, had witnessed the prosperity of the Sima family from the prosperity of fresh clothes, angry horses and fire cooking oil to the decline of the family. If Sima Lun had no turmoil in his heart, he was a cold-blooded and ruthless person.
When the Sima family was at its peak, it was the world's largest wealthy family, and no one could surpass it. Especially after the Gaopingling Incident, the Sima family had overwhelmed the imperial power and became the controller of the highest power of the Wei State.
Sima Lun has lived in such an environment since he was a child. From the time he was beaten to remember, he felt that the Sima family was looking down on the world and living in the world. The world of the Great Wei Dynasty was the world of their Sima family.
However, in such a wealthy environment, there are still some crises and storms hidden. My father and brothers once gathered together to discuss the war in the north, and they would occasionally show worries. The young Simalun was naturally confused about this, but he still clearly wrote down a name called Cao Liang.
But he didn't know what this name meant to the Sima family at that time, but in the following years, the name was constantly mentioned and became the nightmare of the Sima family. Sima Lun knew that this person would become his lifelong enemy.
When Sima Lun was sixteen years old, he took the military stage and independently led the army to participate in a war like Huainan's rebellion. His peers who were also from a wealthy family of the Shi family were either doing things or studying hard, and had the opportunity to display their talents on the political stage in the future.
It is said that children from poor people have become families early, but it seems that children from wealthy families are not living easily!
When Sima Lun entered the political and military stage, it was the time for great changes in the world. Although Sima Lun had great wishes and was very talented, the building was about to collapse and it was difficult to recover. The defeat of the Sima family was already destined. Even if Sima Lun was a genius, he could not turn the tide.
Of course, what made Sima Lun the most heartbreaking was that it reached such a terrible level that the Sima family did not forget that their brothers fought against each other. Sima Zhao killed his brother and deposed the emperor, just to be the emperor who died of pleasure once, but it also allowed the Sima family to go to an abyss that would never be restored.
If Sima Zhao had not been so troubled, even if the Sima family retreated to Guanzhong, they could still rely on the 800-li Qinchuan to defend their last foundation.
Thinking back then, the six kingdoms jointly attacked Qin, but they still returned in disgrace. In the end, the Qin State fought back and unified the world. Therefore, the Sima family occupied the Longsheng land of Guanzhong, which was not without a chance to turn the tables.
But all the opportunities were eventually destroyed by Sima Zhao's desire for profit. The remaining little power of the Sima family eventually fell apart and was defeated by Cao Liang. The huge Wei Kingdom had no place for the Sima family.
Sima Lun felt deeply regretful about this. If at the last moment, the brothers and others were able to unite, work together and work together to the outside world, why would the Sima family fall into such a tragic situation?
Although Sima Lun surrendered to Shu and had a place to live, this feeling of living under someone else's roof made Sima Lun feel particularly uncomfortable. He could not invest in a country or return home. From then on, he was displaced and became a fallen person in the world.
Compared with those brothers who were killed and those who were castrated and lived in vain, Simalun was still lucky. At least he didn't have to live a life as a prisoner. At least he could still have a very high status in Shu Kingdom and marry a beautiful princess.
But did Simalun really be happy?
He had never been happy at all. Even the beautiful car and the delicacies of fairy wine could not make Sima Lun laugh happily. Melancholy filled his face. Even if he forced a smile, he could still feel the strong anger in the laughter.
Perhaps he will be completely inseparable from happiness in this life, and hatred will accompany him throughout his life, unless he can kill his enemies with his hands and restore the glory and status of the Sima family.
However, it seems that this wish is out of reach now. Not to mention that Cao Liang has become unparalleled, it is nothing Sima Lun cannot compete with now. Moreover, the Shu Kingdom that Sima Lun relies on has reached its end, and it is only a matter of time before it perishes. Sima Lun can still be a general of the cavalry and a son-in-law in Shu Kingdom. But when Shu Kingdom is destroyed, everything will be destroyed, and it will be completely annihilated like a passing cloud.
So how can Simalun rest in a gentle place now? No matter how many prejudices he had between him and Shu Kingdom before, at this moment, they are all people on the same boat, so they should work together and work together so that they can have a chance to overcome difficulties and save the crisis.
Jiang Wei did not return to Hanzhong this time, but went to Yong'an. Although this move puzzled everyone, Sima Lun felt that this was Jiang Wei looking for another opportunity. Jiang Wei's intention to fight the Northern Expedition had never died. This time he went to Yong'an to change direction and another way. He was determined after all.
The route from Hanzhong to the north has now been blocked. Perhaps there is a new opportunity in Yong'an. From Sima Lun's heart, he still recognizes and favors Jiang Wei.
