In one of the palaces of Miyagi, the atmosphere was a little depressing and gloomy.

Cao Wei's body was like a tiger, sitting quietly on top of the imperial case, while Xun Yu, Yang Biao and other ministers stood in line, standing in front of him, and all of their eyes looked at the secret letter of war report from Wuzhang Yuan on the imperial case.

The content of this secret letter of the battle report made their hearts cold, as if they had fallen to the bottom of the ice cellar in an instant, and they were cool.

Defeated!

The Wei army was defeated in the first battle of Wuzhangyuan!

And in this battle, they were not an ordinary ordinary defeat, but were wiped out!

In this battle, the Wei army was completely defeated, there was no suspense at all, and there was not even any remnants of the army that could go everywhere, either killed in battle or captured, and hundreds of thousands of main forces were exhausted overnight.

"Hehe, it seems that I can't turn the sky over after all!"

After half a ring, Cao Cao came back to his senses, looked at the war report, and his face became very calm, calm as water, and his expression was indifferent, indifferent to the point of indifference, indifferent to the point that all the ministers were shocked.

His eyes were gloomy, he swept past the ministers, and finally looked at the battle report letter, and spit out a sentence with some bitterness: "Sun Zhongmou, you won!" ”

When did he and Sun Quan start fighting?

Can't remember!

It seems to have started between a battle of encirclement and suppression in the East China Sea.

Sun Quan once wanted to encircle and suppress him, and he also countered Sun Quan.

Sometimes he couldn't help but think about Sun Quan, who he should have understood with a sword when he was by the river, would there be no defeat today.

It's a pity that it wasn't that year after all.

Now Sun Quan has defeated himself and defeated the Great Wei Dynasty in a dignified manner.

"Your Majesty!"

Prime Minister Xun Yu stepped forward, looked at Cao Cao, his voice became a little dark, and he didn't know what to say at this time.

Wuzhangyuan was defeated, so the last breath of vitality squeezed out by the Great Wei Dynasty had been crushed.

At the beginning, in order to fight this war, in order to fight a bloody way out for the Great Wei Dynasty, the Great Wei Dynasty squeezed in the soldiers, horses, grain and grass that could be used, and even did not hesitate to bear the notoriety and steal the imperial tombs of the previous dynasty to gather military food and ensure logistics before starting the war.

But......

Defeat is assured!

This Cao Wei's sky is about to fall!

"Wait, is there any hope for Da Wei?"

Cao Cao raised his head, his gaze swept over, and his voice was a little ethereal, this was probably the first time he Cao Cao was so helpless, and the first time he lost his self-confidence.

It was as if he was asking these ministers.

But in fact, he was asking himself: Is there still a need to fight this battle?

"Your Majesty, although we are already surrounded by Soochow, we still have a way to fold!"

Jia Xu stood up, arched his hands, and said word by word: "We can concentrate our forces, give up Guanzhong, and then go straight south, south to the land of Bashu, and forcibly fight Bashu, Bashu is easy to defend and difficult to attack, we just need to blow up the plank road out of Bashu, and then stick to Pujia Pass, which can slow down the trend of Dongwu for ten years!" ”

"Give up Guanzhong?"

"Isn't this just running away without a fight?"

"Besides, how can the Wu army let us capture Bashu smoothly?"

"Ma Chao's hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses can't go south to Bashu, and now that the Wu army is concentrated on the southern front, we can't go south at all!"

When the ministers heard this, they were shocked in their hearts and spoke one by one......

Although there is a dangerous place in Guanzhong, it is surrounded on all sides, and the Wei army simply does not have enough troops to open the defense, but if it can retreat to Bashu, as long as it holds the two defense lines in the northeast, the strength of the Wei army is enough.

It's a way to put oneself to death.

But in the current situation, even if they are willing to give up Guanzhong and give up the last base of the Great Wei Dynasty, they may not be able to lead the last main force of the Wei army to retreat to Bashu, and the gains outweigh the losses, which may give the Wu army a chance to take Guanzhong without blood.

"Wenhe, can we escape?"

Cao Cao laughed a little, his voice was very soft, and he asked rhetorically.

The overall situation is like this, the Central Plains is so big, there is no place for Cao Wei at all, even if they succeed in retreating to Bashu, it will only be a matter of time before they are defeated.

"Your Majesty, as long as we breathe a sigh of relief, there will be a chance to make a comeback!"

Jia Xu knelt down on his knees and bowed his head and shouted.

"We don't have a chance anymore, in this battle, I won't run away without a fight, even if I die, I will die on the city of Luoyang!"

Cao Cao calmed down, his face became resolute, he looked at Cao Ang, and said in a deep voice: "Zixiu, you immediately go and draw up a holy decree, send an order to Zhang He, let him give up Wuguan, transfer troops to Chang'an, and hold Chang'an as much as possible!" ”

Whether he can hold it or not, he has to try it and defend Chang'an.

"No!"

Cao Ang nodded and immediately went to pass the military order.

"Wen Ruo, send an order to Feng Xiao and Wen Yuan, let them start shrinking the soldiers and horses of the two levels!"

Cao Cao's face was expressionless, and his voice became more and more cold and resolute: "Once Chang'an is lost, then there is no point in us holding the Tiger Prison Pass and Bishui Pass, let them be ready, put the Wu army in to fight, take Hongnong Hanoi in Hedong, Henan Province as the battlefield, open the depth, and fight to the death!" ”

Something sticks to is balance.

But once the west is lost, the Wu army can drive straight into the east and hold the eastern pass, which makes no sense at all.

"Your Majesty!"

Hearing this, Sikong Yang Biao's pupils contracted slightly, and he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Is this too costly, once the Wu army forms a ring encirclement against us and persecutes us, we may not be able to stop it!" ”

"So far, is there any point in blocking and not stopping?"

The corners of Cao Cao's mouth raised a faint smile, and said, "I have already put the last battle with Sun Zhongmou on the top of Luoyang City, and if he Sun Zhongmou wants to eat my Great Wei, he must be prepared to break his stomach!" ”

Cao Cao waved his hand, signaled them to be quiet, and continued: "You are all going down and getting ready, Luoyang is the last battlefield of our Great Wei, you are ready for the last battle!" ”

"No!"

All the ministers could feel Cao Cao's determination, but in fact, at this point, they could only take one step at a time.

"There is one more thing, the news of the Battle of Wuzhangyuan, you must suppress it!"

Cao Cao pressed his big hand on the imperial case, and instructed: "This matter must not be spread out for half a minute, otherwise it will disturb the morale of my eastern army, and the army's heart will be in chaos, I'm afraid I won't even be able to fight!" ”

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid that this news can't be suppressed at all!"

Xun Yu's eyes were a little low, and said: "We are afraid that we were fooled before, Dongwu has already obtained the battle situation of Wuzhangyuan early in the morning, so they took the lead in using gossip to provoke the countermeasures of our court, and now in order to resist them, we have to paste the notice to appease the people, the notice has been issued, and suddenly you pretend to be in the war, we are tantamount to beating our mouths, and the people will not trust the court!" ”

"If you can say it, say it, if you don't listen, then kill!"

Cao Cao drank coldly: "One person spreads rumors, punishes the whole clan, I want no one in Luoyang City to dare to spread it, if we can't stabilize Luoyang with good voices and good spirits, then kill a stable one, all in all, I must have a stable Luoyang, it's as simple as that!" ”

"No!"

The ministers trembled, and Cao Cao's murderous aura made them shudder.

"Go ahead!"

"Wait for the resignation!"

The ministers saluted, rushed out, and left the palace with heavy and somewhat desperate steps.

In the main hall of the palace city, it was suddenly empty, only Cao Cao himself was alone, as if it was a statue, sitting motionless in his position, his eyes seemed to look at the young man who led the troops to encircle and suppress himself in the past, and was full of spirit: "Sun Zhongmou, I am waiting for you in Luoyang!" ”

……

Outside the palace, all the ministers walked out side by side, and their expressions were very low.

"Sima Luoyang, please stay!"

Jia Xu suddenly stopped Sima Lang.

"Commander Jia!"

When Sima Lang heard this, he stopped, turned his head, looked at Jia Xu, and hurriedly arched his hand: "What's the matter?" ”

"I've found out something these days!"

Jia Xu's eyes were gloomy, staring at the changes in Sima Lang's face, and said word by word: "During this period of turmoil in Luoyang, your Sima family seems to have done a lot of things from it?" ”

"Commander Jia, my Sima family has always kept to themselves, I don't understand what you're talking about, and I ask Commander Jia to make it clear!"

Sima Lang said.

Jia Xu's eyes narrowed carefully, he didn't see anything from Sima Lang's expression, but Sima Lang was too calm, which made him a little puzzled.

He continued: "Sima Luoyang, do you know the rumors of the defeat of Wuzhangyuan, someone is deliberately disturbing the hearts of the people of Luoyang, these days, my ghost soldiers have arrested a few gangsters in the market, they are all responsible for demagoguery of the people, we pry open their mouths, but the strange thing is that they are all members of the Sima family!" ”

"Is there such a thing?"

When Sima Lang heard this, his face was a little indignant: "Commander Jia, I have been focusing on the affairs of Luoyang recently, and I have neglected the affairs of the family, so that some younger people have a chance to take advantage of it, you don't have to be afraid of me in this matter, investigate it to the end, no matter who you find, you have full authority to deal with it!" ”

"Haha, with your words, I'm relieved!"

Jia Xu smiled slightly and said, "Great Wei is in danger, we should work together to assist Your Majesty to tide over this crisis and revive Great Wei!" ”

"What Commander Jia said is very true, this matter is handled by Commander Jia, as long as it is beneficial to Great Wei, I have no opinion, the government still writes government affairs, and I need to deal with it, so I will retire first!"

Sima Lang nodded, and then strode away.

"Jia Xu, do you doubt him?"

Zhong Xuan caught up, looking at Sima Lang's back, his expression was a little gloomy.

He heard the conversation between the two, which made him a little surprised.

"I suspect there is something wrong with the Sima family!"

Jia Xu's eyes crossed a touch of cold killing intent, and said: "The Sima family must have a dark son in brocade clothes, and the status is not low, it can mobilize the strength of a lot of Guanzhong families, and this person, Sima Lang is the most suspicious, and he must be safe inside, I have to find out this person!" ”

"Why Sima Lang?"

"Because he was once captured by Eastern Wu!" Jia Xu said so. (To be continued.) )
