The Chu army led by Xu Tian stopped fifty miles from Hanzhong.

It is not far from here, and it is just stuck on the only way for the Wei army to supply grain and grass.

They were stationed here like this, and they were a huge threat to the Wei army.

However, the geographical location here is extremely special.

All sides are plains, but there are still no woods.

Camped here, it is very easy to be attacked.

But.

Xu Tian specially explained that he must be stationed here.

Although many generals didn't know why, they still did what Xu Tian ordered.

After Wei Yan settled down, he kept patrolling.

Even the most marginal places, he walked through them himself.

In his opinion, the current situation is already dangerous.

If you don't pay attention to it, I'm afraid you won't even know how you died.

As for Cao Zhen's father and son, they personally led their soldiers to ambush on both sides of the camp to prevent anyone from sneaking up.

I have to say that such an arrangement is already very good.

At least not when attacked, there was no reaction at all.

After walking around the camp a few times, Wei Yan still couldn't understand why Xu Tian did this.

With a pat on the head, Wei Yan decided that he didn't want to.

After thinking about it so much, I didn't come up with anything, so I might as well ask it myself.

Maybe it's because the army is really boring, or maybe Xu Tian and Zhao Yun are on the bar.

When Wei Yan came to the Chinese army's tent, the two of them were playing chess again.

Originally, Wei Yan didn't know anything about this, but after watching it for so long these days, even he would read it himself.

"I really don't understand..."Wei Yan's first sentence when he walked into the tent was this.

"Don't understand what? I don't understand why the king did this? ”

Zhao Yun was the first to answer Wei Yan's question as usual.

"No, I just want to ask, why can't you finish this chess?"

"Huh?"

As soon as Wei Yan said this, Xu Tian and Zhao Yun turned their heads almost at the same time, and after glancing at Wei Yan, they immediately burst out laughing.

"My lord, I actually think it's too risky for us to do this?"

After waiting for a while, Wei Yan still spoke.

Looking at his worried look, even Zhao Yun was a little emotional.

"I said it, Wen Chang must be here for this!" Xu Tian laughed.

He already knew that Wei Yan would come, otherwise it wouldn't be him Wei Yan.

"Actually, it's very simple..."Xu Tian put down the chess pieces in his hand, stood up and said.

"Our current location is the main road through which the Wei army's grain and grass pass, and we are camping here very publicly.

How do you think Cao Pi will react when he sees us doing this? ”

Zhao Yun and Wei Yan both fell into deep thought, and soon after, Wei Yan clapped his hands and said, "If I were Cao Pi, then I would send someone to attack as soon as possible!"

After all, we are not on a firm foothold, and now is the best time to attack us! ”

After Zhao Yun heard this, he also nodded slightly: "It makes sense, this Cao Pi is very likely to come to sneak attack!" ”

"So what should we do?" Xu Tian raised his eyebrows and continued to ask.

The scope of the problem is quite large, and it involves a variety of tactical issues.

As for the result, Zhao Yun and Wei Yan said differently, after all, the two of them had different methods of leading troops.

"Actually, there's no need to be so troublesome, we just need to respond to all changes with the same..."Xu Tian smiled slightly, picked up a chess piece, and put it on the chessboard....

....

After laying out the overall situation, Cao Pi seems to have aged a lot all of a sudden.

His condition seemed to be improving, but he was overworked and now seemed to be weaker.

But he didn't care about this, the only thing he was thinking about now was how to get Xu Tian and Liu Bei to fight.

In this game, once you play it well, it is very likely that you will turn defeat into victory, and it will be a decisive victory.

As long as he thought of this, Cao Pi felt that he was full of strength.

His pursuit of this whole life is this, because only then will he feel that he has won over his father.

Cao Cao has always been a hurdle in his heart, and he doesn't want to be like this when he dies.

Well, now, a great opportunity is in front of him, and it's up to him to see how he operates.

"Someone, go find Sima Yi!" Cao Pi shouted weakly outside the tent.

"No!"

Someone outside the tent immediately responded, and soon Sima Yi came here under the leadership of the guards.

"Your Majesty, are you better?" As soon as Sima Yi walked into the tent, he immediately knelt in front of Cao Pi.

"Ahem..."

Cao Pi coughed lightly twice, and sat up with some difficulty: "Now you are the only one who sees me, and you will care about my body first!" ”

"Your Majesty, where is it, my Great Wei's up and down, no one is worried about Your Majesty!"

"Hahaha... You're right, there are a lot of people who are worried about me, but they're all watching to see when I'm going to die! A grim smile appeared at the corner of Cao Pi's mouth.

"Your Majesty is too worried..."Sima Yi lowered his head.

He knew very well in his heart that what Cao Pi said was true, and there were many people waiting for Cao Pi's death now, and there were quite a few.

Therefore, this time is the most dangerous time for them, whether it is their own people or enemies, they are all looking forward to Cao Pi's death soon.

This is the most terrifying thing, as for him Sima Yi, he is now in the same boat as Cao Pi.

As long as Cao Pi dies in the army, those people in the court will have 10,000 ways for him to die, and they will also take his family with him.

Therefore, he can only protect himself if he does his best to protect Cao Pi.

Now Sima Yi understands why Cao Pi insisted on bringing him here, which is a good step for a long time.

"You.... Do you want me to die? Or do you want to go back alive? Cao Pi suddenly turned his head to look at Sima Yi.

This sudden change startled him, and for a while, Sima Yi stayed where he was and couldn't speak for a long time.

However, his performance made Cao Pi very satisfied, at least he felt that this Sima Yi was not what he imagined.

And so far, only this Sima Yi is the most reliable and the most useful one!

"The minister's loyalty to His Majesty can be learned from heaven and earth!" Sima Yi shouted this sentence almost hoarsely.

He didn't know why Cao Pi was talking like this, whether he was suspicious of himself or just joking, he was a little unsure.

After all, this human heart is the most difficult thing to guess, who knows what the other party is thinking at the moment?

"Okay, okay, get up, I'm just joking with you, you see you're really serious!"

Cao Pi waved his hand with a smile and said very casually.

"The minister begs Your Majesty, don't make such a joke again in the future, the minister can't stand it!"

"Okay, then I ask you what you can bear, what is going on with our grain and grass, can you find out?"

Speaking of grain and grass, the faces of the two people were not very good-looking, after all, they had just been robbed by Xu Tian.

"Now it is almost certain that this matter has something to do with General Cao Zhen...."

Sima Yi thought about it for a while and decided to tell Cao Pi the truth...

....
