The next day, Sima Yi summoned the generals to the Chinese military tent, Sima Shi saw that Sima Yi's eyes were a little red and swollen, and his expression was sluggish, so he knew that Sima Yi must have been sleepless all night, and he couldn't help but be very worried about his body, after all, Sima Yi is very old, and the old man of ordinary people, at this time, I am afraid that he has already been idle at home, teasing his grandson, like Sima Yi's age, he is still fighting on the battlefield, and there are few people in the world.

Sima Shi couldn't help but blame himself deeply, the main reason was that his ability was not enough, if he could go out on behalf of his father, pacify and merge the state, why should the old father drag the wind and candle body for thousands of miles, and break his heart for the great cause of the Sima family.

"Father, pacification and annexation of the state is not an overnight thing, you must not overwork and hurt your body, it is important to take care of your body."

The generals who came in later also said: "Mrs. Sima take care of your health. ”

Sima Yi smiled, waved his hand gently, and signaled the generals to return to their positions, in fact, Sima Yi didn't want to take a break in his heart, when he was old, whether it was physical strength or energy, he couldn't compare it with when he was in his prime, but the situation forced him to do it.

Cao Liang is such a difficult opponent, which has caused him endless trouble, until now, Sima Yi can't come up with a better way, and it is no wonder that he will be exhausted and sleepless.

After the Gao Pingling Mutiny, the Sima family has embarked on the road of no return, if they can't eliminate dissident forces and successfully take down Cao Wei's Jiangshan Sheji, Sima Yi can only be a minister, and he knows better than anyone that in all dynasties, none of the ministers in power will end well.

Whether it is to prevent people from being dug out of the coffin and whip the corpse after his death, or to save so many children and grandchildren of the Sima family from being wiped out, Sima must grit his teeth and persevere.

Seeing that all the generals were coming, Sima Yi looked around and said calmly: "You are already clear about the current situation, our army is in a deep predicament, and if you want to change the current situation, you need to work together with one heart and one mind. ”

Generals, you look at me, I look at you, all of them are speechless, everyone knows that Sima Yi is a military master who has been good at fighting for a long time, he has been a handsome man all his life, and he has been experienced in a hundred battles, if even he can't do something, how can others have any good tricks.

Those present today, it can be said that in addition to Wang Guan, they are all younger generations, and they are about the same age as Sima Shi, the reason why Sima Yi reuses and allocates these young people, the most important thing is to cultivate capable ministers for the Sima family, he is already old, and those subordinates who once followed him are also getting old, embarrassed and useful, after Sima Shi takes over the authority in the future, there must be loyal and capable people around him to assist, so Sima Yi's expedition, in addition to Hu Zun and Wang Guan, two veterans, All of them are newcomers.

In a sense, this expedition, in addition to pacifying the hostile forces in the state, is also an opportunity for Sima Yi to inspect the newcomers and recruit the team for Sima Shi, who are capable ministers, who are brave generals, who can be useful, and which people are worthy of cultivation, these are all within the scope of Sima Yi's investigation.

However, newcomers mean a lack of experience, judging from the performance of the previous generals, Sima Yi is indeed difficult to describe with the word satisfaction.

It's not that they don't have a plan at all, but I'm afraid some ideas are not very mature, and they will inevitably laugh and be generous when they take them out.

Besides, showing off in front of Sima Yi, isn't that an axe for the class?

Zhong Hui thought about it for a long time, and arched his hand: "There is a plan for the humble position, but I don't know if it is feasible or not?" ”

Sima Yi said with great interest: "Shi Ji has a good plan, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it." ”

Zhong Hui hesitated slightly, and then said: "The state of Bingzhou is governed in Jinyang, as long as Jinyang is taken, the heart of the army and the people of Bingzhou will inevitably collapse." Now Cao Liang has gathered heavy troops in Shangdang, Jinyang is empty, why not send a group of elite soldiers to attack Jinyang City, as long as Jinyang City is taken, and the situation in the state is settled, Cao Liang's attempt to trap our army in Shangdang will inevitably fail. ”

In fact, Zhong Hui's plan was not original, when he was in the Danhe camp before, someone proposed not to entangle with the Bingzhou army in Shangdang, and immediately went north to attack Jinyang, but because Sima Yi was cautious at that time, he did not adopt this suggestion.

Now that Zhong Hui brought it up again, this time Sima Yi did not object immediately, but smiled slightly and said, "I would like to hear the details." ”

This kind of suggestion is naturally not new to Sima Yi, if Zhong Hui only stays at the level of suggestion, it is just a cliché, Sima Yi saw that Zhong Hui said so surely, obviously he had a detailed plan, so Sima Yi was ready to listen to the details, and then consider whether to accept it or not.

The reason why Zhong Hui reiterated this suggestion on this important occasion was naturally because he had a mature idea, and he did make a careful plan in advance, and when he heard Sima Yi ask like this, he said it without hesitation.

Zhong Hui's plan is indeed unique, he planned the strength and route of the operation in detail, as well as the plan to deal with various possible dangers, so Zhong Hui's plan is very detailed and comprehensive, so Sima Yi can't help but fall into contemplation.

In fact, Sima Yi never thought of a plan to attack Jinyang, but if this kind of large-scale march spanning thousands of miles cannot solve the problem of logistics and supply, after all, it is just a risky and costly action, once an accident occurs, there is a danger of annihilation of the whole army.

However, the Battle of Huyukou made Sima Yi understand that it was difficult to defeat Cao Liang by relying only on conventional tactics, and that the long-term delay in the war in Bingzhou was not a good thing for him, and Zhonghui's plan to raid Jinyang undoubtedly provided Sima Yi with a new way of thinking to solve the problem.

Now the battle of Shangdang has fallen into a stalemate, and it is obvious that no one on both sides can help the other, as evidenced by the battle of Huyukou, even if both sides have carefully designed their plans, but in the end it is still a draw.

If they want to break this deadlock, Sima Jun must not let the Bingzhou army lead the way, they must open up a new front and completely disrupt Cao Liang's original deployment, so that it is possible to achieve major results in the shortest possible time.

And the plan of raiding Jinyang, the center of the state, has undoubtedly become one of the best ways to break the current deadlock.
