In 200 A.D., that is, in the fifth year of Jian'an, Cao Cao issued a letter all over the world, raising 100,000 troops to attack Zhao Yun, and Yuan Shao was the first to raise troops to respond with the title of Great Sima, and for a time, the entire Central Plains was shaken.

Sima Hui, who is located in Shuijing Villa, also invited Pang Degong to the village to discuss the next step of the plan.

"De Cao, in your opinion, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have teamed up to deal with Zhao Yun, do they have a chance of winning?" Pang Degong was still a little worried.

"The two of them join forces, and the number of troops is no less than 200,000, if they work together, it shouldn't be a big problem, but ...... Alas, I am relieved of Yuan Shao's side, but I am ...... to Cao Cao."

Sima Hui couldn't help sighing, "Elder Brother Shang, you also know that Cao Cao is different from Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao has always relied on the family, the interests of the family are the interests of Yuan Shao, the will of the family is the will of Yuan Shao, he and our Han Cicada are standing on the same line, although the Yuan family has been out of the cold cicada, but Yuan Shao knows very well in his heart that safeguarding the interests of the family is to protect himself, at least he will really contribute, I am worried about Cao Cao, although Cao Cao also reused many famous people, but he reused the family, But while guarding against the family, if the war does not go well and there are a large number of casualties, I am worried that Cao Cao will waver in his will, and let Cao Cao and Yuan Shao join forces, it is easy to create a gap, once Cao Cao is frustrated and changes his mind, the alliance between the two families will undergo a serious test, and no one can guarantee what will happen next. ”

Pang Degong nodded, "I'm the same as you think, in fact, from the beginning, according to the meaning of the chilling cicada, the person who finally unified the Central Plains could never be Cao Cao." Cao Cao is very cunning, not so much to pay attention to the family, but to say that he is using the power of the family, such a person is very terrible, we simply cannot completely control him, once the entire Central Plains falls into his hands, the interests of the family can not be guaranteed at all, the celebrity and the scholar Bianrang, he said to kill and kill, Taiwei Yang Biao did not make any mistakes at all, and was almost beaten to death in prison, when Cao Cao conquered Xuzhou, he slaughtered several cities, and many clans also suffered because of this, many of which were important members of our chilling cicadas, But there's nothing we can do. ”

Sima Hui's expression was also a little serious: "Elder Brother Shang, you and I both understand that we can only take advantage of the situation, and we can only properly promote the development of the situation to the situation we want to see, but many things are not what we want, just how we want, such as who can finally unify the Central Plains, we don't have absolute control over all this." Sun Jian, we are not optimistic about him, let him die, Zhao Yun, Cao Cao, Sun Ce, Ma Teng, Han Sui, Liu Zhang, Zhang Lu These people, we are not optimistic, but what kind of situation will occur in the end, we can't expect it at all, perhaps, the more we are not optimistic, the more we can achieve great things. ”

"yes." Pang Degong nodded, "Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven, this is the only thing we can do." ”

Sima Hui said with a smile, "But you don't have to worry too much, even if the result is unsatisfactory, it is only temporary, with the power of the chilling cicada, we can reverse any situation, as long as there is a family, there is a chilling cicada, the family does not fall, the chilling cicada will not fall, if it is really finally unified by Cao Cao, then his reign will not last, no matter who is in power, it cannot go against the interests of the family, otherwise, sooner or later he will be pulled down, this is the inevitability of history, but also the confidence of the chilling cicada, no one can change, Cao Cao can kill ten, a hundred families, We can absorb a hundred or a thousand families to join the chilling cicada, Cao Cao can't fight us, and others are no exception. ”

Pang Degong asked rhetorically, "Have you thought about it, what if Zhao Yun finally unified the world?" ”

Sima Hui thought for a while and replied, "That's really troublesome, but it's not like there's no solution, it's just that it may take us more energy and time, Zhao Yun's side has very little power, and our chilling power has barely penetrated into Guanzhong, if Zhao Yun unifies the world, then chilling cicada can temporarily compromise and penetrate into Zhao Yun's side with all his might, at the same time, those meritorious people around Zhao Yun, after years of growth, also have the potential to become a family, we can take advantage of the situation, Absorb them step by step into the fresh blood of the cicada, as long as we have enough patience, we can bring Zhao Yun down. ”

After a slight pause, Sima Hui took a sip of tea, and said, "The cicada will never fall, the old family will withdraw, and there will be new ones, many people around Zhao Yun are from poor backgrounds, from the lowest level of civilians, but as Zhao Yun's strength expands step by step, those people are reused and promoted step by step, and their identities will also change, ten, twenty, thirty years, the descendants of those people, can they still be regarded as poor low-level people?" Time can change everything, if there is really that day, Zhao Yunxiong dominates the Central Plains, we have to deal with him, it is as easy as a finger, but it takes a little more time, you think, those people around him, one by one, will naturally become a family in the future, as long as it is a family, we can win it over for my use, because the cold cicada will always represent the interests of the family, and the people of the family will never be the enemy of the cold cicada. ”

"You're getting farther and farther, let's talk about the things in front of you, I'm worried that Sun Ce will send troops to help Zhao Yun, now that Sun Ce has become the climate, even Liu Biao can't help him, if Cao Cao is out of the field, if Sun Ce sneaks up on Xudu or takes Xuzhou, it will make Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's alliance go to waste."

"I also thought of this, Sun Ce, like his father, is indeed not easy to control, let's let our people persuade him first, by the way, Zhou Yu also joined the chilling cicada, right?"

As soon as Sima Hui's words fell, hurried footsteps sounded outside the door, and after a while, Shi Guangyuan pushed the door and walked in.

"Teacher, things are not good, Zhou Yu withdrew from the chilling cicada on behalf of the Zhou family."

"What?" Sima Hui and Pang Degong's eyes widened in surprise.

"It seems that our worries will soon come true, Zhou Yu must be worried that the chilling cicada will make him stop Sun Ce, and he will take the first step to withdraw so that he will have no worries."

Shi Guangyuan clenched his fists angrily, "Two gentlemen, Zhou Yu is really annoying to do this, isn't he afraid that we will deal with him?" ”

Sima Hui shook his head, "Guangyuan, why should we deal with him?" Is it just because he quit? What the chilling cicada represents is always the interests of the family, and no interest can compare to the life and death of the family, so any family can withdraw at any time, the chilling cicada does not guarantee that all the members of the organization will be protected, such as those families who died in the hands of Cao Cao, once the family is threatened, no matter what decision is made, it is understandable, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce and Zhao Yun are sworn brothers, he chose to withdraw at this time, I can fully understand. ”
