Chapter 407: Sima Yi's thoughts
Sima Yi watched all this, and only remained silent.
Generally, Cao Pi at this time, no one dares to provoke and plead.
There is only one end like that, and that is to accompany him to death.
After a long time, Cao Pi sat on the ground panting, his chest rising and falling.
The eunuch had already passed out, and even when he did, he kept his mouth tightly shut.
"Someone! Pull him down to heal, I want to live, if he dies, then let the imperial doctor bury him with him! ”
Under Cao Pi's gloomy voice, the two guards carefully carried the eunuch down.
"Cao Zhen, this idiot!"
scolded angrily again, and Cao Pi sighed.
After the impact of Chu currency on the territory of Wei, the current economy of Wei is plummeting.
Prices are soaring, and people are struggling to make a living.
Whether it is the Chu coin or the five-baht coin originally used by the Wei State, no one believes it now.
The people have begun to return to the most primitive forms of barter.
But even so, we still don't know the impact of soaring prices.
Because Cao Pi used his own national strength to confront Chu Coin before.
Now not only the people are suffering, but even the army, the palace, and even Cao Pi himself are beginning to be implicated.
Therefore, at such a time, they urgently need a victory, an absolute, hearty victory to calm people's hearts.
But now, once the news of Cao Zhen's defeat reaches Yecheng, what will happen, even Cao Pi himself doesn't know.
This is why Sima Yi is so anxious.
"Your Majesty, the immediate priority now is to change the current situation.
Otherwise, once the army is defeated, coupled with the current turmoil in the country, my Great Wei will be..."
Sima Yi didn't dare to say anything further, he was sure that if he really said it, the end would most likely be the end of the eunuch.
"It seems that now I can only promise Sun Quan first..."
As if he had lost all his strength all of a sudden, he sat back on the dragon chair and said quietly.
This headless and brainless words suddenly said by Cao Pi made Sima Yi stunned.
"Your Majesty, what is the matter with Sun Quan?"
Sima Yi still asked, now is the time when their survival is in danger, he must know everything that can help.
"Come!"
Cao Pi, who was reclining on the dragon chair, beckoned to Sima Yi.
Without any hesitation, Sima Yi immediately came to Cao Pi's side, and respectfully bent over Cao Pi.
"Look at this..."
Cao Pi handed Sima Yi a sealed letter.
opened the secret letter with some doubts, and Sima Yi read it very seriously.
It's just that the more he looked down, the tighter his brow wrinkled.
After a while, he respectfully placed the secret letter on the table in front of Cao Pi.
"This Sun Quan's meaning, if it is true, is indeed a feasible and good way!
It's just that I'm afraid that he also reached some kind of agreement with Xu Tian, and then used this matter to deal with us.
If that's the case, Your Majesty, there's really no room for us to turn over! ”
Sima Yi said very cautiously.
Now in this situation, even Sima Yi began to hesitate.
He didn't know what to do next, and if he made the wrong move, it could be doomed.
"In my opinion, Sun Quan's request should be true, this Xu Tian occupied Chaisang and Xiakou.
These places are the gateways to Jiangdong, and for Sun Quan, they are places that he wants to take back in his dreams.
What's more, his intentions are definitely not only Chaisang and Xiakou, he wants to swallow the entire Jingzhou! ”
At this time, Cao Pi suddenly calmed down and seriously analyzed the current situation.
"As long as Sun Quan can start from Xu Tian's rear, disrupt his rear, and make his army confused.
In this way, this Xu Tian must want to retreat quickly to guard his rear.
At that point, it's time for us to make a move, as long as we delay his return to defense, he'll be completely finished! ”
The more Cao Pi spoke, the more excited he became, and even directly ripped over the map, spread it on the ground in front of Sima Yi, and pointed to it and said seriously.
Looking at Cao Pi, who was extremely excited, Sima Yi also knelt in front of the map and looked at it carefully.
"Your Majesty is wise! As long as things go the way you say they go, there is a good chance of success.
At that time, I'm afraid that not only Xu Tian, but also Liu Bei will be captured by us.
If that time really comes, Yizhou and Jingzhou will be ours, and as for that Sun Quan, he will no longer be our opponent! ”
Sima Yi's hands trembled a little, and he kept pointing to the cities and routes on the map, and said excitedly.
The emotions of the two were contagious to each other, and the more they discussed, the more they felt that the plan was feasible.
"This time, I also ask Your Majesty to allow your ministers to follow you into battle to kill the enemy, and do your best for my Great Wei!"
Sima Yi said, bowing to Cao Pi very respectfully.
"No!"
After Sima Yi finished speaking, before he could get up, he saw Cao Pi directly reject his words.
This made Sima Yi's heart sink to the bottom all of a sudden.
Now that it has reached this point, Cao Pi still doesn't believe in himself, which makes him feel extremely frustrated.
"Your task is not to follow me into battle to kill the enemy, what you have to do is to negotiate terms with Sun Quan!
This matter is done, and the time for my Great Wei to be in the world is coming! ”
Just when Sima Yi was completely disappointed, he heard Cao Pi say this to him.
"The minister will definitely live up to his mission and will never let His Majesty down!"
Sima Yi reacted almost instantly, and immediately bowed to Cao Pi again and thanked him for his grace.
This was the first time in a long time that Cao Pi had loosened his control over Sima Yi militarily.
He was afraid that if he didn't pay attention to it, Cao Pi would immediately take back his fate.
"You'd better not let me down..."
Cao Pi packed up his mood and left here with his hands behind his back.
In the main hall, only Sima Yi was left sitting alone on the ground, looking a little sluggish.
If you look closely, you will find that his eyes are filled with ecstasy and excitement.
As long as he is given military power, as long as he is allowed to go to the battlefield, he can make war exploits.
In this way, his Sima family will truly rise, an unshakable rise.
In fact, after Cao Pi left, he regretted his decision.
He suddenly found that above the main hall, he seemed to be being led by the nose.
The things you say, everything you say, seems to be exactly what the other person wants to hear.
My father's last words before his death seemed to echo in my ears again.
It's a pity that now he is the emperor, and as long as he says something, he can't change it at will.
However, the current Cao Pi is no longer the stubborn young man who wanted to surpass his father.
In his opinion, he can easily control Sima Yi now, and everything in this world is under his control....
