Chapter 553: Sima Yi is coming
This result is almost the same as what Sima Yi thought before, and now he only found Liu Feng's army in the county of Weixing, and it was led by Liu Feng himself, for Cao Zhi there is no reason to let it go, if Weixing County is lost like that, not only the people in the world who don't know why, but even some courtiers of Wei will be very disappointed in Cao Zhi.
Therefore, no matter what Liu Feng's follow-up strategy is, in Wei Xing's battle, Cao Zhi also wants to let the people and officials of Wei see his determination to confront Liu Feng, and this determination must be embodied by Sima Yi.
Sima Yi knew that he was almost indispensable this time, so he bowed his hand to Cao Zhiyi and said: "In this case, Yi invites 30,000 troops to join forces with General Li Dian, 80,000 troops are enough to defend against danger, even if Liu Feng has 200,000 troops coming, Yi can hold Weixing for several months!" ”
"With only 30,000 troops, how can Wei Xing be kept, Zhongda must at least bring 50,000 troops to go, otherwise Liu Feng has a lot of troops, how can Zhongda be able to resist?"
Hearing that Sima Yi only wanted to lead an army of 30,000 to Weixing County, Cao Zhi couldn't help frowning, in his opinion, Liu Feng personally went out to fight 100,000 urgently, and Sima Yi only led 30,000 people, which is undoubtedly a little blind confidence, after all, it has only been less than a year since he was defeated in the hands of Liu Feng before, so I have to say that there is some suspicion of exaggeration.
But after hearing Cao Zhi's words, Sima Yi bowed his head, and said urgently: "The lord must not send all the main army to Wei Xing, with Liu Feng's mind, there will never be no way back, I guess there is a sixty percent chance that Wei Xing is just a feint attack place for Liu Feng, once this is the case, the lord will gather 100,000 troops to Wei Xing, once Liu Feng's target is elsewhere, it will be too late to regret, after I lead the 30,000 army to Wei Xing, once Liu Feng really wants to take Wei Xing in one fell swoop, the army of Luoyang can also be at my disposal, And once Liu Feng's real purpose is to be somewhere else, the lord should leave most of the sergeants by his side, once there is a change in one side, he can be sent to the place where there is a change, if I take the army away and be restrained by the Jingzhou army, the consequences are unimaginable! ”
Sima Yi's advice can not be said to be bitter, so far, Sima Yi knows that the fate of himself and the entire Sima family is afraid that it has been closely linked with the rise and fall of the Wei State, and can only do his best to pull Cao Zhi and his Wei State out of the current quagmire, to this day, in Sima Yi's opinion, the strength and heritage of the Wei State are still there, what they have to do is not to fall for Liu Feng's strategy, step by step to regain the advantage from Liu Feng's hands.
After listening to Sima Yi's good words, Cao Zhi really no longer insisted, he knew that Sima Yi must be saying this for the Wei State, not for himself, so Cao Zhi no longer hesitated, and ordered Sima Yi to elect an army of 30,000 and immediately set off to Weixing County to resist Liu Feng's attack, and gave Sima Yi the right to act cheaply in front of the battle, and once things changed, the army in Luoyang could be mobilized to resist Liu Feng.
On this expedition, Sima Yi just took Xu Huang with him, and the rest of the generals all stayed by Cao Zhi's side to stand by, until the moment of departure, Sima Yi's hunch in his heart was that Liu Feng would not deploy the army to the vicinity of Weixing County in one go, and he must have other purposes in mind.
Obviously, Sima Yi's premonition is correct, but he has a correct premonition on the one hand, and on the other hand, he is on the road to be deceived, such a situation is what Liu Feng has long thought of, Liu Feng knows, even if Sima Yi thinks long-term, but Wei Xing is like the face of Wei State, Wei Guo's face is being beaten by himself, it is impossible for them not to react, so Sima Yi whether he is willing or not, he must appear where Liu Feng appeared, there is only one reason for this, That is, the generals and ministers of the Wei State have not been accepted in recent years, and in addition to Sima Yi, there have been no talents who can take charge of themselves.
At this time, Liu Feng and Zhao Yun, but there was no trace of suspicion, after they captured the city of Xicheng County, they only slightly repaired for a day and then launched an attack on the city of Xixian where Li Dian was stationed, although because Li Dian was still good at defending the city, and after all, there were 50,000 horses in Xixian County, which resisted Liu Feng's army for a while.
But even so, a large number of small catapults configured in Liu Feng's army still made Li Dian's army suffer, Liu Feng and Zhao Yun took advantage of Li Dian's stubborn defense and did not dare to go out of the city, and did not use the cloud ladder with very large damage, but used a large number of small catapults, these catapults have been transformed by the craftsman battalion more than a year ago, and they are most suitable for attacking such small and medium-sized cities. The soldiers who defended the city were often afraid to show their heads and observe the situation outside the city.
Under the cover of catapults, Liu Feng and Zhao Yun attacked under the city gate of Xixian several times, if Li Dian hadn't been prepared for this, Liu Feng and Zhao Yun would have taken Xixian County.
This tug-of-war lasted for more than three days, resisting Liu Feng's several offensives, and the frightened Li Dian finally waited for the reinforcements he was looking forward to, Sima Yi.
After Sima Yi rushed to the city of Xixian County, he hurriedly asked Li Dian if Liu Feng was still here, and when he heard Li Dian tell him that Liu Feng had been attacking the city with Zhao Yun in Xixian County these days, Sima Yi was slightly relieved at the same time, but also frowned.
It seems that Liu Feng does not need to personally supervise the battle here, but what is Liu Feng's real purpose, Sima Yi was a little incomprehensible for a while, so he decided not to continue Li Dian's previous practice, but to take the initiative to go out of the city once to see what kind of medicine Liu Feng was selling in his gourd.
In the early morning of the next day, when Liu Feng and Zhao Yun attacked again, the gate of Xixian City was opened, and a team of men and horses quickly left the city and stood opposite Liu Feng's army.
Liu Feng glanced at the banner of the enemy army, and found that Sima Yi had indeed arrived in this Weixing County, and his eyes couldn't help but show a sense of joy, everything was developing according to his plan, and today, it was the best opportunity to confuse Sima Yi.
Liu Feng in the battle array, dressed in shining golden armor, was very powerful surrounded by a group of generals, Sima Yi looked at it fixedly, knowing that this must be Liu Feng.
Although Sima Yi wanted to see if Liu Feng had really achieved his goal of personally leading the troops this time, Liu Feng obviously wouldn't let them return to the city like this.
