"Mr. Zhongda, you should have a way." A civil official said to Sima Yi, who lowered his head and was silent.

Sima Yi didn't expect that the Sichuan army would have undergone such a big change in this year, if it was still the Sichuan army a year ago, Sima Yi would still rack his brains to find a way to deal with it and find a way to hold on.

But now? The number of soldiers, the combat power of the soldiers is several grades worse than others, and the other party has too much food to fill the warehouse, and they can't afford to fight, can't afford to defend, can't afford to consume, can't afford to drag, even if all the ancient military strategists gather in Yecheng, who can do anything?

Sima Yi, the best strategist in history, was really exhausted at this time.

"Hate is born in a family." Sima Yi said in his heart that Sima Yi had never had this idea before, not because he valued the strength of the Sima family more, but because Sima Yi was a person who went with the flow.

Sima Yi's principle of action is to move with the general trend, never deliberately go against the general trend, and be confident that as long as he grasps the luck, he will be able to achieve meritorious deeds.

Sima Yi has always done this.

But now, Sima Yi found that he couldn't keep up with the general trend, because of his identity, just because of his identity, because he was a family, so he had to be buried with the family.

At this time when the mountains and rivers were exhausted, Sima Yi saw the direction of the general trend, but he couldn't move with the times, and the depression in his heart can be imagined.

"Let Hao Zhao of Huguan lead his troops to Yecheng, and abandon the Yellow River on all fronts." Sima Yi said. After Huguan sent a large number of cronies to reorganize the army, Cao Zhang was hollowed out, and now he is completely replaced by Hao Zhao, a military general who is close to Sima Yi.

Sima Yi's vision was indeed accurate. Hao Zhao is young. but he was good at guarding the city. The Huguan soldiers were very mixed, and most of them had bad intentions, and Hao Zhao resisted the attack of the Sichuan army in this case, and the defense line did not loosen in the slightest.

It is because of this Hao Zhao that the officials in Yecheng can sleep well.

"What? Yecheng and the Yellow River abandoned? ”

Listening to Sima Yi's words, a large group of civil officials exploded.

"How's that going to work? The land of Heluo south of the Yellow River has 300,000 troops of Zhang Ren of the Sichuan army and more than 100,000 troops outside Huguan. If you let them all in, won't it lead the wolf into the house? ”

"If the Youzhou Sichuan army goes south, what will our Yecheng resist? And now Jizhou is full of civil uprisings, if it intensifies, I'm afraid it will be impossible for us to withdraw to defend the city. Sima Yi said loudly.

"The anger of the horseman, grabbing the land with his head, what can those untouchables do if they rebel, as for the Youzhou Sichuan army, hasn't it gone south yet? We withdrew our defense in advance, didn't we let the Sichuan army launch a general offensive in advance? ”

"Lingering. Unreasonable. For the first time, Sima Yi was angry in front of everyone and shook his sleeves. Strode out of the temple gate.

"You, you ......" No one thought that Sima Yi, who had always been lifeless, would be angry, and the scolded official was so angry that he couldn't say a word with a trembling mouth.

Sima Yi returned to the mansion, and Sima Fu immediately greeted him: "How is it, second brother, have you thought of a way to deal with it?" ”

"I can't even think of a way, can those idiots still think of a way?"

"Ahh

Sima Fu sat down suddenly: "Then aren't we, it's over?" ”

Sima Yi said in a deep voice: "Now that Youzhou has been captured, more than 400,000 Sichuan troops are on display, and the new cavalry of the Sichuan army is extremely fierce.

Now that the Sichuan army is delayed in attacking, fools should know that they are waiting for the civil uprising to swell, looking at the places where the civil uprising is advancing, it is obvious that the Sichuan army is carefully inciting, most of them are in the middle of Huguan to Yecheng, and from the Yellow River to Yecheng.

Liu Zhang's intentions were clear, to block our reinforcements with a popular uprising, and to assault Yecheng with their extremely fast and ferocious cavalry.

It is impossible for the mob to rebel, but it is more than enough to cooperate with the Sichuan army, and it is ridiculous that those stupid pigs still look down on the rebel army composed of rebellious people, these people are hopelessly arrogant.

It's all the same as Sima Hui's old thing, and if it continues like this, we will be exhausted to death by them sooner or later. ”

"So what do we do?" Sima Fu asked anxiously.

"What else can I do, I will fly separately when the disaster comes, damn, if I were not a family, I would have found a way to surrender."

Sima Yi actually scolded a swear word, Sima Fu stopped on the spot, Sima Yi was indeed very dissatisfied in his heart, he didn't think it before, but now he really hates the arrogance of Sima Hui, a Confucian of the world.

"Third brother." Sima Yi beckoned Sima Fu and whispered a few words in his ear, Sima Fu's eyes widened and widened, and Sima Yi advised: "This matter must be kept top secret, and no one can know about it, including the Sima family, including my father, otherwise we will be buried with those fools." ”

"Yes, I listen to the second brother, but." Sima Fu frowned and said, "Will the second brother inform the people in the clan at that time?" ”

Sima Yi looked at Sima Fu with a pleading face, knowing that Sima Fu's dependence on the family was still very heavy, Sima Yi thought about it himself, and said impatiently: "Let's see when the time comes." ”

Sima Fu was overjoyed, knowing that Sima Yi said this, he didn't abandon the family, and hurriedly went out.

In the palace of King Wei, Cao Pi drank to drown his sorrows, Zhen Mi poured wine for him on the side, Cao Pi's face was red, endless and sparse, a glass of wine was in his stomach, and his tongue began to knot.

"Youzhou has also been captured, the Sichuan army of more than 400,000 troops is stationed in Youzhou, Jizhou, Jizhou, Liu Zhang can break it with a snap of his fingers, I'm finished, it's all over."

With a "ding" sound, the wine glass fell to the ground, and the residual wine spread to the floor, Zhen Mi hurriedly took another cup, ready to pour wine for Cao Pi, and suddenly Hao's wrist was grabbed by Cao Pi.

Cao Pi's intoxicated eyes stared at Zhen Mi: "Mi'er, do you think I'm worth it?" Do you think this son is worth it? For you, my fourth brother and I turned against each other, for you, I betrayed my father, for you, I colluded with a group of chaotic parties, Mi'er, do you think I'm worth it? Am I worth it? ”

"Ahh

Cao Pi's last sentence was almost roaring, Zhen Mi's white wrist was grabbed by Cao Pi, and her beautiful and flawless face looked at Cao Pi weakly and sadly, tears flashing in her eyes.

"You have tears too? Do you have tears too? Hahahaha. ”

Cao Pi suddenly let go of Zhen Mi's hand, laughed, and said to himself while patting the table: "I know, when I entered Yuan Xi's mansion, you came out on purpose, you were staying in the backyard of the deep house, how could you show me?" Still dressed like a vixen?

I know that this is all a ploy of your Zhen family, Yuan Shao has fallen, so the Zhen family asked you to abandon Yuan Xi to seduce me, so that your Zhen family can continue to maintain the first family in Hebei, it is all a conspiracy, it is all a conspiracy. Hahaha, I'm so smart, I know everything. ”

Cao Pi laughed proudly a few times, but was instantly replaced by pain, and slammed the table, Zhen Mi trembled in fright, and Cao Pi said to Zhen Mi hatefully:

"It's a pity, I know that this is your conspiracy, or I willingly fell for you, turned against my fourth brother, betrayed my father, is there anyone more stupid than me Cao Pi in the world?

I know that it is a conspiracy, and I have done a great rebellion and humiliated my ancestors for you, but now that I have fallen into this fate, my Cao Pi's head will be hung on the banner of the Sichuan army. ”

"It's all your fault." Cao Pi's eyes suddenly became fierce, and he grabbed Zhen Mi's neck, Zhen Mi's tender white face was red with blood and difficulty breathing, but he didn't say a word, just tears flowed down and dripped on the back of Cao Pi's hand.

……

In Cao Cao's room, the piano sounded beautifully, and Cao Cao, who was fifty-three years old, had gray hair on his sideburns, lying leisurely on the recliner and listening to Lingju play the piano.

During the time of being imprisoned, Cao Cao no longer had the same anxious governance as before, gave up his great cause, and was with Lingju every day, but Cao Cao felt very comfortable, as if he was old, and never thought that he would have such a relaxed moment.

In this year, the head wind has never been committed.

Listening to the sound of Lingju's piano, Cao Cao said slowly: "Liu Zhang came in, later than I expected, but more ferocious than I expected, more than 400,000 troops crossed the Great Wall in a few days, annihilated more than 100,000 foreign troops, and controlled the entire territory of Youzhou.

With such military strength, even if I, Cao Cao, leads Hebei, I am not Liu Zhang's opponent, it seems that Liu Zhang's domination of the world is simply doomed. ”

"In this way, the Sichuan army is about to enter Hebei." A year ago, Lingju's piano sound had always been filled with a faint sadness, but now, that sadness Cao Cao no longer felt, just like a rural idyll, listening to it is extremely reassuring.

Lingju plucked the strings and said, "Your inheritance is about to perish, do you have any regrets?" ”

"It's a pity." Cao Cao said, Lingju quietly waited for his words, Cao Cao knew that he couldn't sell Guan Zi in front of Lingju who knew him best, turned over and looked at Lingju, and said with a smile:

"When the Sichuan army comes in, no one can die, but I, Cao Cao, will definitely die, living alone with you like this, only one year, how can I Cao Cao not regret it."

"Lingju has no regrets." Lingju said slowly.

……

Handan, Cao Zhang's mansion, since he was replaced by Hao Zhao, Cao Zhang has been idle, and lives in Handan City under the strict supervision of the clan.

Yahuan brought a bowl of rice, a plate of green vegetables, put it on the table and left, Cao Zhang looked at the food on the table, if it was before, Cao Zhang would directly knock over the ground when he saw such a meal, and asked for wine and meat.

But now, Cao Zhang picked up the rice bowl and swallowed it without disgust, not how hungry he was, but Cao Chang knew that only if he was alive could he find a way to save his father and family, even if this hope became more and more slim, Cao Zhang would not give up.

Eating and eating, Cao Zhang suddenly felt wrong, as if he had eaten something foreign, Cao Zhang looked left and right at no one, and carefully pulled it out, it was a small strip of cloth with words, Cao Zhang quickly wiped the rice grains on it, revealing clear handwriting.
