Chapter 1000: Guiding the Maze
Sima Shi couldn't help but look panicked, Yiguan Road was the road they took when they went out this time, and it was also the closest way back to Luoyang, if the Bingzhou army cut off this route, it would undoubtedly be a heavy blow to Sima Jun.
Due to the successive sneak attacks on Binh Duong and An Yi by the Bingzhou army, Sima's army had almost no foothold, and their difficult way of marching was bitten by the Bingzhou army, and the ideal way now is to retreat from Yiguan Road to Hanoi County, it is possible to avoid suffering greater losses.
But Sima Yi had already foreseen that Cao Liang would never let them pass the pass so easily, as long as the Yiguan Road was sealed, the Sima army had no hope of breaking through, so he could only continue to stay in Hedong, and continue to be brutally cut by the Bingzhou cavalry, even if Sima Jun claimed to have 100,000 troops, but he couldn't stand such a turn of biting the Bingzhou army, I am afraid that it will not be long before the 100,000 army will be wiped out.
"Father, since the Yiguan Road doesn't work, then where should we go?" Sima Shi looked at Sima Yi with a look of anticipation, hoping that he could find a way to bring Sima Dajun out of the predicament.
Sima Yi took a long breath, he could see that his body was still extremely weak and tired, and when he moved his body slightly, the wound on his chest was faintly painful, Sima Yi himself sat up and spoke, but struggled a few times, and finally lay on the couch without his strength, and said slowly: "Cao Liang has a great plan this time, so that our father and son will not die, he will never give up." Yiguan Road is a trap, Cao Liang must have laid a net on Yiguan Road, just waiting for us to drill, so we must not fall into this trap! Since we couldn't go east, we went west, to Pubanjin, and from there crossed the Yellow River into Yongzhou, with Guo Boji's response, presumably Cao Liang did not have the courage to cross the Yellow River to pursue. ”
Although Sima Yi was sick on the couch, and Sima Shi specially ordered his subordinates not to disturb in order to let him calm down and recuperate, Sima Yi still didn't know a lot of news, but this didn't seem to hinder Sima Yi's control of the overall situation, and it was estimated that in the entire Sima army, the person who saw the situation most thoroughly was Sima Yi.
Cao Liang's purpose is not only limited to defeating the cavalry of the Sima army and taking the two counties of Pingyang in Hedong, he now has a big plan, that is, he wants to annihilate Sima Yi's father and son in one fell swoop, if their father and son can't get out in Hedong, then the battle of Bingzhou will also be the last battle for the Sima family.
After all, Sima Yi and his two most proud sons are in the army at the moment, and the children of the Sima family in Luoyang are like clouds, but they are either young or unsuccessful, Sima Yi really can't expect them to have any ability to confront Cao Liang, so if the three of their fathers fail to escape this time, then the power of the government that their Sima clan has just arrived in and has not had time to cover up is afraid that it will fall into the hands of Cao Liang, and the great cause for which Sima Yi has worked hard all his life will eventually be in vain.
Of course, this is what Sima Yi doesn't want to see, but it's a pity that he was injured by a stray arrow and couldn't get up to command the battle, so Sima Yi pinned his hopes for a breakthrough on his two sons, and of course, the main thing was to entrust it to his eldest son Sima Shi, whether in terms of ability or experience, Sima Shi was far longer than Sima Zhao.
Sima Yi knew that the time left by God for him was really running out, so taking advantage of this opportunity, Sima Yi took the initiative to delegate power and handed over all military affairs to Sima Shi to handle, so Sima Yi also wanted to see if Sima Shi had the ability to lead Sima Shi out of the predicament and carry it forward.
Of course, in the general direction, Sima Yi also has to give Sima Shi the rudder, so as not to let him lose his way, such as this retreat action, Sima Yi clearly pointed out a way to Sima Shi, Yiguan Road is not feasible, Sima Jun wants to get rid of the current predicament, and only to go west to Pubanjin, from there to cross the Yellow River, maybe Sima Jun has a glimmer of vitality, if you go into Yiguan Road, it is likely to fall into the abyss of no return.
With Sima Yi's guidance, Sima Shi's eyes suddenly opened up, at this critical time, or Sima Yi's experience played a role, if Sima Shi followed Zhong Hui's advice to lead the army to the pass, he would inevitably fall into the trap of the state army, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
Although Sima Shi wanted to communicate more with Sima Yi, he saw that Sima Yi was very tired and weak, so he didn't dare to bother more, and left his hand.
After getting out of the carriage, Sima Shi also specially instructed the subordinates who served Sima Yi to take care of them carefully, and not to be slack, if Sima Yi really had any accidents, only these servants were asked.
These subordinates dared to defend and only agreed.
Sima Shi was about to leave, just when he bumped into Sima Zhao also coming, Sima Zhao was full of concern and asked, "Brother, how is my father's injury, is it getting better?" ”
Sima Shi smiled slightly, and said: "There is no major problem with my father's injury, but I have to recuperate quietly, the doctor has told me, don't let my father overwork, and don't be angry, I have ordered my subordinates to wait for a good life, I believe that in a few days, you can go to the ground." ”
This time Sima Yi was in distress, thanks to Sima Zhao's hard work, if it weren't for Sima Zhao's best efforts to block the arrows, Sima Yi would have suffered a few more arrows, I'm afraid that the Daluo Immortal would not have been able to save him if he came.
When Sima Zhao heard this, he was relieved a lot, but he was still worried, but it was obviously not Sima Yi's business, presumably he was also worried about the development of the war situation.
The generals of the Sima army, including Sima Zhao, originally had great hopes for this return to Anyi, I am afraid that this is also the only way for them to get out of the current predicament, but they didn't expect Anyi to fall, Sima Zhao immediately became six gods and no master, he couldn't help but be a little confused, and didn't know what to do, so Sima Zhao took the initiative to come to see Sima Yi.
In Sima Zhao's impression, only Sima Yi is omnipotent, he has a splendid chest, a good plan, and has experienced many winds and waves in his life, Sima Zhao believes that under this predicament, only Sima Yi has a solution.
Sima Shi saw his thoughts, smiled and said, "Second brother, you come with me, the plan to break the enemy, there is already a plan for my brother." ”
General Sima Zhao was suspicious, and the attack of the state army has not stopped, and Sima Jun has been tired of coping, and suffered heavy losses, Sima Shi suddenly said that he had a way to deal with the enemy, and Sima Zhao was a little skeptical when he heard it, if he really had a way, then why not use it earlier?
