Chapter 587: Sima Yi's Eloquence
When Zhang Fei saw Sima Yi being disrespectful to Liu Bei, he was immediately stunned and wanted to do it. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Liu Bei was not only angry, but looked at Sima Yi again with an impressive and appreciative gaze, and Fang sneered: "You want this king to save Yuan Shang's sphere of influence, why should this king save it, Zhong Ru asked you to continue to drag Zhang Yuan's main force, this king just waved his army south, and even if Zhang Yuan won Yuan Shang's sphere of influence, this king took his Jizhou, wouldn't he lose more than he gained." ”
Liu Bei deliberately wanted to embarrass Sima Yi.
Sima Yi was not in a hurry, but said lightly: "Of course, King You can not save my lord, but Yi thinks that if King You does not go to save my lord, there are two major disadvantages." ”
"I want to hear about it." Liu Bei took a sip of wine and curiously motioned for him to continue.
Sima Yi said unhurriedly: "First, King You, you are the advocate of the Five Kingdoms Expedition Zhou, and my lord also raised troops to respond to the call of the king, and now my lord is in danger, if the king is not saved, he will lose his trust in the world, and who will dare to form an alliance with the king again in the future." ”
Liu Bei's expression moved slightly, obviously Sima Yi's words touched his nerves.
"The second and most important point is." Sima Yi accentuated his tone, "If my lord is destroyed, Zhang Yuan is equivalent to hanging a knife on the side of Youguo, as long as he is willing, he can divide his troops into two ways to attack Youguo, at that time, I am afraid that Youguo will follow in the footsteps of my lord, and the truth of cold lips and teeth, with the wisdom and martial arts of Youwang, it will not be impossible to see through it."
Liu Bei's body was shocked, the sneer on his face had been exhausted, and his expression gradually became solemn.
Sima Yi finally said: "Zhang Yuan has been prepared on the front line of northern Hebei, Ran Min is the talent of the commander, and there are scheming people like Gao Gong to help him, with the strength of the Zhou army in Jizhou, Yi thought that it should be enough to last until the fall of my lord, at that time, King You did not capture Jizhou, and the flank was threatened by Zhang Yuan's troops, for King You, it was the real gain that outweighed the loss." ”
As soon as he spoke, Liu Bei gasped, a layer of cold sweat oozed from his back, and he looked at Zhuge Liang, who was silent.
At this time, Zhuge Liang was still indifferent, only shaking the last general's fan lightly, and nodded slightly to Liu Bei.
Liu Bei understood, immediately laughed, and said angrily: "This king has heard that Sima Zhongda is extremely talented, and when I saw it today, it really deserves its reputation." In fact, the more the public is in danger, the king has already had the heart to save him, but he is afraid that he will lead the army into Vietnam, but it will cause misunderstanding of the Yue Gong, so he has not set off for a long time. ”
Sima Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly arched his hand and said: "King You is wise and benevolent, Yi admires it to the fullest, and Duke Yue of Yi Dynasty thanked King You first." ”
"Mr. Zhongda is serious, this is what this king should do, and it is not worth thanking."
Liu Bei waved his hand humbly, and immediately ordered wine and meat to be placed in the tent to entertain Sima Yi, a distinguished guest who came from afar.
Liu Bei got up in person and held Sima Yi's hand tightly, "Bei has admired Mr. Zhongda for a long time, and it is rare to see Mr. Zhongda's demeanor today. ”
"This ...... Thanks to the value of King You, I dare not be ashamed. Sima Yi was a little flattered for Liu Bei's warm salute.
That night, in the king's tent, the shadows of two men were entangled in the tent cloth and did not sleep all night.
……
To the west of Hangu Pass, the Zhao army camped.
In the big tent of the Chinese army, Cao Cao was also holding Yuan Shang's handwritten letter, thinking about it and thinking about it, but he couldn't make a decision for a long time.
"This Yuan Shang was defeated so quickly, 50,000 Hun iron cavalry and 10,000 Black Mountain cavalry were defeated to him, and he couldn't stop Zhang Yuan." Cao Cao's brows furrowed deeply, and his sunken eyes were filled with a mixture of amazement and disdain.
"Zhang Yuanzhiqiang, Yuan Shaozhong was so strong back then, he was not his opponent, let alone his uncompetitive son." Liu Ye in front of the tent sighed.
Cao Cao was silent, and after a long time, his eyes looked at Guo Jia: "Fengxiao, Yuan Shang sent Tian Feng to persuade this king to withdraw the troops of Guguan and move Yuan Shang's sphere of influence to relieve him of the siege of Yueyang, do you say this king is going or not?" ”
Guo Jia, who had been closing his eyes and recuperating, slowly opened his eyes and smiled faintly: "Actually, King Zhao has already made a decision in his heart." ”
Cao Cao's figure was stunned, and the corners of his mouth raised a wry smile.
Guo Jia had already stood up, pointed to the map and sighed: "Zhang Yuan's main force is all in the lord, Xu originally wanted to use my big Zhao 50,000 male soldiers to break through Hangu Pass, and it should not be a problem to sweep the Central Plains, but unexpectedly, this fake blue jade, the ability to defend is so strong, I am afraid that if we want to break through Hangu Pass, it will take at least more than two months to use it, and it will be ...... at that time."
Guo Jia's finger moved, and it fell in the direction of Yuan Shang's sphere of influence, "With Yuan Shang's ability and strength, I'm afraid that Yueyang has already fallen, and the entire Yuan Shang's sphere of influence has fallen into Zhang Yuan's time, even if we capture Hangu Pass at that time, I'm afraid the gains outweigh the losses." ”
Cao Cao's brows furrowed deeply, his eyes had a complicated look in his eyes, he stood up, stood in front of the map with his hands in his hands, stared deeply, and was silent for a long time.
After a while, Cao Cao struck the map with his fist and said in a deep voice: "As soon as Yuan Shang's sphere of influence is lost, Zhang Yuan's main force can be slaughtered into Guanzhong in a big way. ”
After that, Cao Cao turned around abruptly and said resolutely: "The lord must not be destroyed, this king must be saved, reply to Tian Feng, this king Keri will withdraw the troops of Guguan and move north!" ”
……
Ten days later, in the east of Yueyang City, the Zhou army camped.
"Good news in the south, General Du has conquered the two cities of Xingyang and Longshan two days ago."
"Good news from the north, General Tian Dan broke through the city of Jiaoyang yesterday, annihilated 500 enemies, and captured 100,000 grains and grass."
In the king's tent, Zhang Yuan listened to the good news of Zhulu, nodded slightly, was in a good mood, and kept drinking wine.
In the cities around Yueyang, Zhang Yuan has sent all the generals to attack it, turning Yueyang into a lonely city, which is almost the work of the past few days.
"What about the siege fortifications, how is Mo Zhai going?" Zhang Yuan took a sip of wine and asked again.
Zhuan Zhu arched his hand and said: "Back to the king, Lord Lu has dug the first trench around Yueyang City, and the second trench is already being dug now, and the earthen wall in the east of the city has also been started. ”
"Very good, Mo Zhai did a good job." Zhang Yuan nodded with satisfaction, "Send the order down, and assign another thousand soldiers to Mo Zhai, so that he can speed up the progress of the project." ”
"No."
