174 Sima Yi and the Women He Related (5)

After entering the city, Sima Yi slaughtered more than 7,000 men over the age of 15, collected corpses, and built a Beijing Temple. beheaded all the ministers below Gongsun Yuan, and killed more than 2,000 people including the general Bi Sheng. 40,000 households were recruited. At the same time, the daughters of Gongsun Yuan's ministers were distributed to the generals and soldiers in the army who did not have wives.

The soldier gave Gongsun Yuan's five concubines to Sima Yi, who smiled, collected them in the army, and followed the army.

Sima Yi released Gongsun Gong, who was usurped by Gongsun Yuan, and built tombs for Lunzhi, Jia Fan and others who were persecuted by Gongsun Yuan to commend their descendants.

The order said: "In ancient times, when a country was conquered, only the stubborn and vicious people in it were killed. All those who have been affected by Gongsun Yuan will be forgiven (that is, "the first evil must be done, and the cooperation is not guilty"). If the people of the Central Plains are willing to return to their hometowns, they will do what they want. ”

At that time, some soldiers in Sima Yi's army had cold clothes and asked for short jackets, but Sima Yi refused to give them, saying that "the official goods of the shirts are selfless."

So he went to the imperial court and dismissed more than 1,000 soldiers over the age of 60 from military service and sent them back to their hometowns.

Within the original one-year period, the victory class division.

Emperor Wei Ming sent envoys to Ji to reward the troops, and increased Sima Yi to eat Kunyang County, a total of two counties before and after.

Cao Wei's decades-long Liaodong problem was finally completely resolved.

…… ……

Originally, the imperial court asked Sima Yi to go to Zhenguanzhong. But when he arrived at the White House, there was an edict calling him to return to Beijing quickly, and within three days, the edict was five solstice. Emperor Wei Ming's handwritten book said: "I can see it from the side, and when I arrive, I will go straight into the pavilion and look at my face."

It is said that when Sima Yi was in Xiangping, he dreamed that Emperor Wei Ming was pillowing on his lap and said, "Look at my face." He looked down and saw that Emperor Wei Ming's face was different.

Now when I saw the edict, I was shocked, and I took the chaser to travel day and night, from the white house to the capital, more than 400 miles, and arrived overnight. Next to the royal bed in the Jiafu Palace, his eyes were full of tears, and he asked about the disease.

Emperor Wei Ming took his hand, looked at the crown prince King Qi, and said, "I will trust you in the future." Death is bearable, I endure death and wait for you, you have to see each other, and there is no revenge. ("Three Kingdoms, Wei Shu, Ming Emperor Ji" is "I am very ill, and the future will belong to the king, and the king and Shuangfu are young sons.") I have to see you, and I have nothing to hate. ”)

On the same day, Emperor Wei Ming died. It was the first month of 239 A.D. (the third year of the beginning of the Jing Dynasty).

Cao Fang, the king of Qi, was only eight years old, and Sima Yinai and the general Cao Shuang received the edict to assist the young master.

King Qi ascended the throne, Sima Yi served as a servant, a festival, a governor of Chinese and foreign armies, a record of Shangshu, and Cao Shuang each commanded 3,000 elite soldiers, and ruled the government together.

Cao Shuang wanted to squeeze out Sima Yi, and wanted Shang Shujuan to pass him in advance, so that he could make a statement to the Son of Heaven and reappoint Sima Yi as the great Sima. The courtiers thought that many of the great Sima had died in office in the past, which was unlucky, so they appointed Sima Yi as the Taifu who had no real power, like Xiao He, who did not enter the palace, praised and worshipped, and went to the palace with a sword.

…… ……

In April of the second year of Zhengshi (241), Emperor Sun Quan of Wu divided his troops into four ways to attack Wei: Wei general Quan Cong led tens of thousands of troops out of Huainan, Weibei general Zhuge Ke attacked Lu'an, former general Zhu Ran attacked Fancheng, and general Zhuge Jin attacked Zuzhong.

In May, Wu general Quan Cong invaded Shaobei, Zhu Ran and Sun Lun besieged Fancheng, Zhuge Jin and Bu Qi (zhì) invaded and plundered Zhezhong, and Sima Yi invited himself to send troops to beg. The courtiers believed that the enemy soldiers should be allowed to break down from afar, and Sima Yi said: "The border city is invaded by the enemy and the minister sits in the temple, which will make the territory uneasy and the people will be confused, which is a great worry for the community." ”

In June, Sima Yi led the army to reinforce, Sima Yi knew that the south was hot and humid, and the army should not last here, so he first sent light cavalry to challenge, but Zhu Ran did not dare to move. So, he recuperated and recuperated. Inspect the elite, recruit warriors, issue orders, and pose for siege.

The Wu army was frightened and retreated overnight. At the mouth of Sanzhou (Jing, Henan, and Yang), the Wei army pursued and reached, and the Wu army was annihilated by more than 10,000 people, and the ships and materials suffered a lot of losses. The Wu army that attacked Lu'an and Zhezhong also returned in vain.

In July, Sima Yi was added to eat Yun and Linying, a total of four counties before and after, 10,000 households in Shiyi, and 11 children were all liehous. Sima Yi's meritorious deeds are becoming more and more magnificent, but he is more humble.

Sima Yi thought that Taichang Lin was an elder in the same village, and he always had to bow down when he saw him.

He often admonished his disciples: "It is taboo for Taoists to be full of fullness, and the spring, summer, autumn and winter are still going back and forth, what virtue can I hold in this high position." Detract from it and detract from it, or you can avoid disaster! ”

Previously, Wu sent Zhuge Ketun to Wancheng, and the border people felt bitter. Sima Yi wanted to lead his troops to attack it, and the speaker thought that Zhuge Ke occupied a strong city, had a wide range of grain and grain, and attacked alone, and the rescue troops would come.

Sima Yi said: "What the thief is good at is water warfare, and now I will attack his city to see its changes." If a thief uses his strengths to abandon the city and run away, this is our intended purpose. If the thieves dare to hold on to the city, the lake is shallow in winter, and the boat cannot move, and the rescuers will abandon the ship and save them by land, which will lead to land warfare that they are not good at, which will be beneficial to us. ”

In September of the fourth year of Zhengshi (243), Sima Yi led his army to march. When the army arrived in Shucheng, Zhuge Ke really burned and accumulated, abandoned the city and left. Sima Yi also inspected the Tuntian District in Huaibei and promoted Deng Ai, a son of a peasant family, to preside over Tuntian.

…… ……

In the spring of the fifth year (244), the general Cao Shuang wanted to establish a prestige, but he did not listen to the persuasion of Taifu Sima Yi, and advocated the destruction of Shu, and Emperor Wei followed. As a result, Wang Ping, the former supervisor of Shu and the general of Zhenbei, was defeated, the Wei army was hindered in the prosperity, and the rear could not supply military food, cattle, horses, mules and donkeys died in large numbers, and Shufu County and Fei Yi reinforcements also arrived one after another.

Seeing that he could not win, Cao Shuang was forced to follow Sima Yi's advice and led his army back in May. Intercepted by the Shu army, the Wei army fought hard, and had to retreat, scattered, and suffered many casualties.

In August of the sixth year of Zhengshi (245), Cao Shuang abandoned the middle base and the backbone battalion, and handed over the two battalions to his younger brother Cao Xi to lead.

In the first month of the first seven years (246 years), the Wu soldiers invaded the city, and more than 10,000 families crossed the river in the north to avoid the Wu soldiers.

Cao Shuang disagreed, saying: "Now you can't build a city and defend the land in the south, but let the people stay in the north, which is not a long-term plan." ”

Sima Yi said: "This is inappropriate. Where it is safe, it is safe, and where it is dangerous, it is dangerous, and this is true for people and things. Therefore, it is said in the book of war that 'success or failure lies in form, and safety lies in potential'. The situation is the key to controlling everyone, and we cannot but be cautious. Suppose that the Wu thieves defend Shuishui with 20,000 people, 30,000 people confront our southern armies, and 10,000 people storm Qizhong, how can we go to the rescue? ”

Cao Shuang did not obey and drove the order back to the south. Wu soldiers really broke through the city, and tens of thousands of people were lost.

Cao Shuang's behavior not only violated the duty of a minister, but also caused the national strength of Wei to decline, and many people with lofty ideals were quite uneasy, hoping that Sima Taifu would uphold justice.

Sun Li, the assassin of Bingzhou, went to complain to Sima Yi, and Sima Yi comforted him and said: "Stop, I can't bear it." ”

The contradiction between Sima Yi and Cao Shuang became increasingly acute, and Sima Yi was in a situation of "unbearable". Sima Yi used his best trick at this time: pretending.

He was a prostitute at home, and the five concubines of Gongsun Yuan who received him in Liaodong were never used because of their busy work, which came in handy at this time. The house slave said, the old man is also entertained.
