This is the good news that Sima Yi has been waiting for a long time, he is suspicious in Hanoi, just to attract Cao Liang's reinforcements, but he has stormed Shimen Pass for a while, and Cao Liang's reinforcements have not arrived for a long time, which makes Sima Yi have a feeling that it is difficult to ride a tiger.

It's not that Sima Yi can't take Shimen Pass, with his original strategic deployment, taking Shimen Pass is actually not of much use, the main force of Sima Jun still takes Hedong County as the direction of attack, and Sima Yi will certainly not make adjustments easily.

But the battle on the side of Shimen Pass was so fierce, Cao Liang was actually indifferent, which made Sima Yi more incomprehensible, isn't Cao Liang worried that Shimen Pass will be lost? Or did Cao Liang already see through his intentions?

It stands to reason that it is unlikely, after all, Sima Yi did not transfer a single soldier to Hedong before, and this plan was also very secretive, there was no possibility of leaking it at all, and Cao Liang was not a roundworm in his stomach, how could he have insight into his plan?

Moreover, Sima Yi's feint target and line this time are exactly the same as in the first battle against the party, and no matter from that point of view, he should not be suspected of fraud.

But on the side of the Bingzhou Army, they didn't think much of Sima Jun's all-out attack on Shimen Pass, and only sent a 10,000-strong Changshui battalion to resist the enemy, even if the Changshui Battalion was obviously difficult to resist the offensive of the Sima Army, and the reinforcements of the Bingzhou Army still hadn't arrived for a long time, this Cao Liang, what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd?

Sima Yi is also more entangled, whether to send troops to Hedong according to the original plan, or to take Shimen Pass first, it is Sima Yi who should make a decision.

It stands to reason that with Sima Yi's current strength, there is no need to play these methods and tricks at all, and directly putting 170,000 foot cavalry to the east of the river is enough to form a crushing trend against the Bingzhou army.

But with Sima Yi's character, he doesn't seem to be inclined to this simple and rough style of fighting, war is also about art, and a war without strategy is much more boring.

Before marching into Hedong, Sima Yi hoped that his plan could succeed, so as to weaken the defense force of the Bingzhou army to the greatest extent and achieve twice the result with half the effort.

It's a pity that Cao Liang was not fooled, which made Sima Yi feel a deep sense of frustration, after all, it is very boring to play a one-man show alone.

It doesn't make much sense to take Shimen Pass, anyway, it is impossible for Sima Yi to march from Shangdang, the previous attack on Shimen Pass was just a bait, Cao Liang didn't take the bait, this bait would have no value, if it was attacked, it could only increase the casualties of Sima Jun.

Sima Yi sighed lightly, and was about to send an order to the Chinese army to stop attacking Shimen Pass, when Sima Shi hurried in and said to him with some excitement: "Father, good news, Cao Liang has sent an infantry battalion and a first battalion over there, and is rushing to Shimen Pass. ”

Sima Yi suddenly looked happy and said, "Is this news reliable?" ”

Sima Shi said: "According to the inter-state army who delivered the news, this matter was seen by his own eyes, although there was no way to blend in the front, but the banner of the Bingzhou army was still clearly visible, and the military here said that he personally counted the number of the Bingzhou army, 20,000 people are only a lot more, just in line with the establishment of the infantry battalion and the first battalion, this matter is very important, forgive him and dare not lie about the military situation." ”

Sima Yi slightly flicked a few strands of beard under his chin, which were already completely silver-white, and said with a smile: "It seems that Cao Liang still can't hold his breath after all!" ”

Sima Shi praised: "My father is far-sighted and thoughtful, Cao Liang's son, how can he know his father's plan, he will definitely lose this battle." ”

Sima Yi smiled indifferently and said: "At this time, it is still too early to talk about success or failure, but this time we can induce Cao Liang's six infantry battalions to leave Jinyang, but we have taken the lead." ”

Cao Liang has a total of three cavalry battalions and six infantry battalions, which Sima Yi has long been able to figure out clearly, the shooting battalion of the six infantry battalions is stationed in Yanmen at the moment, the left guard battalion is stationed at Weize Pass, the right guard battalion is stationed in Leping, and the Changshui battalion is stationed in Shangdang.

Now the infantry battalion and the Xiandeng battalion have been transferred out of Jinyang, which means that there are only three battalions of cavalry left around Jinyang, this news is definitely the most favorable news for Sima Yi, and the cavalry of the state army is powerful, but no matter how powerful it is, it is difficult to speak alone, without the assistance of the infantry, this battle Sima Army is undoubtedly victorious.

The marching speed of the infantry was far behind that of the cavalry, and even if they knew the true strategic intentions of the Sima army, they would not be able to quickly return to Jinyang.

Although he was not able to successfully transfer the cavalry of the Bingzhou army, he was able to transfer all the infantry of the Bingzhou Army from Jinyang, which was still the most perfect strategy.

This time, Sima Yi had no intention of withdrawing the army, but continued to strengthen the attack on Shimen Pass, making the entire Shimen Pass dangerous, so that the reinforcements of the Bingzhou army could be forced to go faster, and once they approached Shimen Pass, Sima Yi's plan was successful.

Sima Yi may not really need to take Shimen Pass, he led the army to attack Shimen Pass, more focused on attracting the state army to help, as long as the reinforcements of the state army arrived in Shangdang, Sima Yi's goal was completely achieved.

Of course, Sima Yi would not march to Hedong until the reinforcements of the Bingzhou Army arrived, the purpose was to prevent the reinforcements of the Bingzhou Army from turning back when they saw that the situation was not good, and in this way, wouldn't it be a waste of effort.

After the reinforcements from the state are in place, it is time for the Sima army to take action, once the action is launched, Sima Yi does not have to worry that the state army will turn around to reinforce Jinyang, after all, nearly half of the Sima army is cavalry, with excellent mobility ability, and the speed has an incomparable advantage over the infantry.

This time, Sima Yi finally took a reassuring pill, and now the whole situation is also developing in an extremely favorable direction, and the soldiers and horses of the entire state are divided, and there will be no threat to Sima Jun at all.

Now what Sima Yi has to do is to prepare to send troops to Hedong at any time, launch an attack from Hedong County to Bingzhou, and go straight to Jinyang, the whole operation must be completed in one go, and the Bingzhou army will not be given any chance to return to help, and when they understand it, the battle of Bingzhou may have ended.
