Chapter 695: Huan Fan Goes Out of the City

Although Sima Fu's death brought Sima Yi endless pain, Sima Yi's state of mind was incomprehensible to anyone, and he quickly returned to his normal demeanor and issued several orders in succession.

First of all, Sima Yi announced the will of the Empress Dowager Guo, enumerated Cao Shuang's ten major crimes, and announced the deposition of Cao Shuang's general officer, Situ Gaorou to serve as the general of the military, in charge of Cao Shuang's military camp, and Wang Guanlai, the servant of the imperial servant, took over Cao Xi's military camp.

As for the group of henchmen under Cao Shuang, they were also dismissed by Sima Yi, Chen Tai was appointed as the lieutenant of Sili, Lu Yu was appointed as Shangshuling, Xun Yi was Shangshu, and Huan Fan was the general of Xiaocai.

There seems to be no problem with these many appointments, and most of the people who have been given important official positions this time are people who are loyal to the Sima clan, but there is only one exception, that is, Huan Fan, the former Dasi Nong.

As we all know, Huan Fan is Cao Shuang's cronies, and the current official position of Dasi Nong was arranged by Cao Shuang, it stands to reason that He Yan, Ding Mi, Deng Yang and others should all be dismissed, and Huan Fan is no exception, but Sima Yi unexpectedly announced that Huan Fan would come to the post of Xiaocai general, which made people confused by the second monk.

The most bizarre of these is that Huan Fan's latest official position, Xiaocai General, was originally Cao Yan's position, and Cao Yan was not officially dismissed by Sima Yi and listed as a prisoner, which is actually equivalent to having two Xiaocai generals.

Today's Xiaocai battalion is still under the control of Cao Yan, even if Huan Fan becomes a Xiaocai general, there are no soldiers to adjust and no generals available, and he is a pure light pole commander.

Sima Yi's arrangement is indeed intriguing, for Cao Yan and Cao Liang's only force that can confront them in Luoyang City, Sima Yi neither increased his official title nor dismissed him from his post and reduced his guilt, but chose to ignore it, as if Cao Liang's father and son did not exist like air.

And the appointment of Huan Fan as the general of the Xiao cavalry, to the point of some two tigers competing for food, if Huan Fan does not want to be a bare-bones commander, he has to work hard to fight for it, and bring the men and horses of the Xiao cavalry battalion under his command.

So when Huan Fan received this appointment, he was really taken aback, but he quickly understood Sima Yi's sinister intentions, which obviously forced him to break with Cao Liang!

Huan Fan and Cao Liang have a good personal relationship, when they merged with the state, Huan Fan was Cao Liang's chief staff and served as the official position of the Central Supervision Army, which Sima Yi could not be unclear, but he still made such an appointment, and the taste of this is really intriguing.

Huan Fan had persuaded Cao Shuang many times and asked him to be careful, but Cao Shuang didn't listen, he still went his own way, this time he sacrificed to Gao Pingling, Cao Shuang brought most of his relatives and confidants, but he snubbed Huan Fan.

Could it be that Sima Yi seemed to think that Cao Shuang and Huan Fan had broken up, so while dismissing Cao Shuang's henchmen, he treated Huan Fan differently, as if he wanted to win him over.

But if Sima Yi really has the heart to solicit it, then at least Huan Fan should be given a decent official position, not an inexplicable official position like now.

Huan Fan didn't bother to pay attention to it, although the relationship between him and Cao Shuang is indeed a little estranged now, but it is far from the point of rupture, Sima Yi wants to take this opportunity to let himself defect to him, it is simply wishful thinking.

But the situation in Luoyang City, still makes him worried, the Sima family initiated this mutiny, has completely changed the political pattern of Luoyang, because Sima Yi has won the support of the Empress Dowager Guo, most of the forbidden army in the city has fallen to the Sima family, plus Sima Shi is the relationship between the middle army, it can be said that in addition to the Xiao cavalry camp that is still sticking to the area of Daxiamen, the armies everywhere are completely under the command of the Sima family.

Moreover, the wealthy families in Luoyang City almost unanimously fell to the Sima family, Sima Yi started with the 3,000 dead soldiers, and now in just one day, he has already controlled most of Luoyang City.

However, at this time, it is almost time for the news to reach Gao Pingling, how will Cao Shuang deal with this crisis?

Since Cao Yan and Cao Liang's father and son still occupy the Great Xia Gate, Cao Shuang only needs to go around from the south of the city to the north of the city to enter Luoyang from the Great Xia Gate.

Or Cao Shuang could continue south and escort Cao Fang, the Son of Heaven, to Xuchang, where he would recruit soldiers and horses from all over the world to King Qin.

Sima Yi gained the support of the Empress Dowager and took the opportunity to take control of Luoyang, while Cao Shuang had the Son of Heaven by his side and could rely on the edict of the Son of Heaven to recruit soldiers and horses from all directions to crusade against Sima Yi's rebellion.

Compared with the first plan, Huan Fan still prefers the second plan, although Cao Liang and his son control the Great Xia Gate, but most of the areas in the city, including the palace, have fallen, if Cao Shuang returns to Luoyang with his car at this moment, I am afraid that there is no place to settle the Son of Heaven.

So the second plan is the best plan, as long as the Quartet is here, Sima Yi is not tied up?

Huan Fan mentioned his thoughts to his son Huan Ze, and Huan Ze said: "Although my father's idea is good, but now there are no thinkers around the general, they are all people who are eager for quick success, and now that Luoyang is in turmoil, I am afraid that they are already six gods and no masters, how can they still think of a way to go to Xuchang to avoid danger?" ”

Huan Fan supported his forehead with his hand, it seems that his son is right, the few cronies around Cao Shuang show off their power on weekdays, but if something really happens, I'm afraid it will be difficult to make a decision, no, it seems that he has to find a way to get out of the city, and then offer Cao Shuang a plan to march to Xuchang, otherwise, Cao Shuang will be fooled by those cronies and surrender to Sima Yi, then everything will be bad.

It's probably not easy to get out of the city now, although Cao Liang controls the Great Xia Gate, but so far, the two sides have launched a fierce battle in the area of the Great Xia Gate, and the army of the Sima family has blocked all the passages to the Great Xia Gate, and it is almost impossible for Huan Fan to get out of the city from that direction.

But this did not seem to be difficult for Huan Fan, and since he had made up his mind, he immediately prepared his horse and hurried to the Pyeongchang Gate.

At this time, the sky had already darkened, although the snow had stopped, but the weather was still gloomy, and when Huan Fan arrived at Pyeongchang Gate, it was almost dark.

The gates of Pyeongchang City were closed, and the soldiers defending the city stopped Huan Fan with guns and forbade him to pass.

Huan Fan waved the wooden wat in his hand and said loudly: "Go out of the city according to the order of the Queen Mother, and open the city gate as soon as possible." ”

The famous general Si Fan, who used to be Huan Fan's subordinate, was surprised when he saw that the person who came was Huan Fan, but he still accompanied him with a smiling face, and stepped forward to ask: "Why did Da Si Nong go out of the city at night?" ”
