Chapter 1520

Upon hearing this, a warm current surged in Jiang Wei's heart. He looked up and saw that behind Lu Xun, the flags of Eastern Wu were fluttering in the wind, and the soldiers were spirited and high in morale.

"General Lu Xun, you have come at just the right time!" Jiang Wei's voice carried a trace of excitement. He knew deeply that with Eastern Wu's reinforcements, the chances of winning this war would be greatly increased.

Lu Xun smiled slightly and said: "General Jiang Wei, our Eastern Wu and your Shu Han are allies, jointly resisting Cao Wei; it is our duty."

After speaking, he waved his hand to give the order, and the Eastern Wu soldiers immediately joined the battle. They cooperated with the Shu Han soldiers and jointly launched a fierce attack on Cao Wei's large army.

Although Cao Wei's large army was numerous, under the joint attack of Shu Han and Eastern Wu, they gradually fell into a predicament. They were attacked from both front and back, their formation was in chaos, and they could not resist the joint offensive of the two armies.

Sima Yi commanded steadily on the battlefield, but facing the joint attack of Shu Han and Eastern Wu, he also felt powerless. He knew deeply that this war could no longer be saved and could only retreat as soon as possible to preserve his strength.

Thus, he ordered the Cao army to retreat. Under Sima Yi's command, the Cao army soldiers retreated one after another, abandoning countless weapons and supplies. They fled back to their own territory and never dared to easily invade Shu Han and Eastern Wu again.

The war finally ended, and the soldiers of Shu Han and Eastern Wu cheered and celebrated the victory. Jiang Wei and Lu Xun shook hands and made peace, jointly celebrating this hard-won victory.

"General Jiang Wei, this victory is indeed not easy. You are brave and good at fighting, which is admirable." Lu Xun's voice carried a trace of approval.

Jiang Wei smiled slightly and said: "General Lu Xun, you flatter me. This victory is the result of the joint efforts of our Shu Han and Eastern Wu. Without your reinforcements, I am afraid I would have been unable to hold on until now."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and the estrangement and conflicts between them vanished at this moment. They knew deeply that only by uniting as one could they jointly resist the aggression of foreign enemies.

After the war, the relationship between Shu Han and Eastern Wu was further consolidated. They signed an even closer alliance agreement to jointly resist Cao Wei's offensive. At the same time, they also strengthened diplomatic ties with other countries to expand their influence.

In Shu Han, Jiang Wei continued to devote himself to the country's reconstruction and army reform. He knew deeply that only with strong national strength and a strong army could Shu Han's peace and prosperity be guaranteed. Thus, he actively promoted economic development, strengthened border defense construction, and improved the army's combat effectiveness. Under his governance, Shu Han's national strength gradually increased, becoming a force that could not be ignored among the three kingdoms.

And in Eastern Wu, Sun Quan was also actively preparing for the next contest with Cao Wei. He knew deeply that only by defeating Cao Wei could the hegemony of unifying the world be truly realized. Thus, he strengthened the training and equipment of the army, improving the soldiers' morale and combat effectiveness. At the same time, he also actively sought cooperation and support from other countries to expand his sphere of influence. He also dispatched envoys to Shu Han to discuss strategies with Jiang Wei to jointly counter Cao Wei.

The close cooperation between Shu Han and Eastern Wu made Sima Yi feel immense pressure. He knew deeply that although he had usurped the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, he had not been recognized by the world. And the joint efforts of Shu Han and Eastern Wu made him feel even more threatened. Thus, he began to plot a new plan, attempting to break this unfavorable situation.

However, just when Sima Yi was plotting a new plan, a sudden piece of news broke the calm. A coup occurred within Cao Wei, Cao Rui was deposed, and Sima Yi usurped the throne and proclaimed himself emperor.

This news was like a bolt from the blue, shocking everyone among the three kingdoms. They knew deeply that Sima Yi's usurpation would have a profound impact on the pattern of the three kingdoms. Shu Han and Eastern Wu immediately dispatched envoys to Cao Wei, attempting to find out the truth and seek cooperation.

However, Sima Yi rejected their request. He claimed that he was the true ruler of Cao Wei and demanded that Shu Han and Eastern Wu recognize his status and submit to him.

This demand made the monarchs of Shu Han and Eastern Wu feel angry and dissatisfied. They knew deeply Sima Yi's ambition and cunning and understood even more that his usurpation would pose a huge threat to the peace and stability of the three kingdoms.

Thus, the monarchs of Shu Han and Eastern Wu decided to join forces to resist Sima Yi. They signed an even closer alliance agreement and jointly prepared for the decisive battle with Sima Yi.

In this decisive battle, the soldiers of Shu Han and Eastern Wu fought bravely and were unstoppable. They utilized the advantages of terrain and tactical coordination to launch a fierce attack on Sima Yi's large army. Although Sima Yi was cunning and resourceful, under the joint attack of Shu Han and Eastern Wu, he gradually fell into a predicament.

With Sima Yi's defeat and retreat, the situation between the three kingdoms temporarily stabilized. However, beneath this calm, undercurrents were surging, and all parties were secretly accumulating strength, preparing to meet future challenges.

In Shu Han, Jiang Wei continued his reforms and construction. He knew deeply that the prosperity of the country could not be separated from economic prosperity and a strong army. Thus, he actively promoted agricultural development, encouraged farmers to reclaim wasteland, and increased grain production. At the same time, he also strengthened the training of the army, improving the soldiers' combat effectiveness and discipline. Under his governance, Shu Han's national strength gradually increased, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the army became increasingly elite.

And in Eastern Wu, Sun Quan was also actively preparing for future wars. He knew deeply that the decisive battle with Cao Wei would come sooner or later, so he strengthened the training and equipment of the army, improving the soldiers' morale and combat effectiveness. At the same time, he also actively sought cooperation and support from other countries to expand his sphere of influence. He also dispatched envoys to Shu Han to discuss strategies with Jiang Wei to jointly counter Cao Wei.

The close cooperation between Shu Han and Eastern Wu made Sima Yi feel immense pressure. He knew deeply that although he had usurped the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, he had not been recognized by the world. And the joint efforts of Shu Han and Eastern Wu made him feel even more threatened. Thus, he began to plot a new plan, attempting to break this unfavorable situation.

However, just when Sima Yi was plotting a new plan, a sudden piece of news broke the calm. A rebellion occurred in the southern region of Shu Han, and the rebel forces were powerful, threatening the peace of Shu Han.

This news made Jiang Wei feel shocked and angry. He knew deeply that the rebellion in the southern region would pose a huge threat to the stability of Shu Han. Thus, he immediately led the army to suppress the rebellion.

In the process of suppressing the rebellion, Jiang Wei encountered unprecedented difficulties. The rebel forces were powerful and familiar with terrain and tactics, making the Shu Han army fall into a predicament. However, Jiang Wei did not give up. He utilized his wisdom and courage to lead the soldiers to engage in a life-and-death struggle with the rebels.

After several months of fierce fighting, Jiang Wei finally suppressed the rebellion in the southern region. He captured the leader of the rebel forces and brought him back to Chengdu for trial. This victory made the people of Shu Han cheer, and also made Jiang Wei's prestige reach an unprecedented height.

However, just when Jiang Wei was suppressing the rebellion, Sima Yi took the opportunity to launch a new offensive. He led a large army to attack the northern border of Shu Han, attempting to occupy Shu Han's territory in one fell swoop.

This news made Jiang Wei feel angry and anxious. He knew deeply that Sima Yi's offensive would pose a huge threat to the safety of Shu Han. Thus, he immediately led the army to meet the battle.
