Chapter 262: Yingchuan Sima, Zhongda Scheming
Dozens of miles north of Xiyang City, Cao Jun camp.
The snow in the sky, the soldiers on the earth. At this time, Cao Ying was in mourning, morale was low, and groups of three or five were discussing: how many brothers were washed away by the flood.
Inside the big tent of the Chinese army.
Cao Cao was furious for a while, but his brain hurt, so he calmed down again, asked all the civil and military in the tent, and said, "Everyone, do you have a clever plan to teach me Cao Cao?!" ”
Guo Jia has gradually replaced the sick and bedridden drama Zhicai in the early years, and has become the first strategist under Cao Cao, last time he didn't get much information about Sun, and agreed with Jia Xu's plan to divide the troops, but now he has made a mistake, and seriously underestimated the strength of the Chu army in Nanyang...
Therefore, at this time, he was persuading Cao Cao, and his mind was spinning, intending to string together a series of things and come up with a foolproof solution.
However, at this time, another voice sounded first, interrupting the train of thought of Guo Jia and the other strategists, "Gong Cao, there is a way to solve this situation!" …”
'Whew! As soon as the voice began, there was a Daodao gaze looking towards the last place,
'Is that him?!' And the man's name flashed in the hearts of the people.
'Sima Yi, the word Zhongda, was born in the famous family "Sima Shi" in Yingchuan, the son of Sima Fang, the commander of the cavalry, and the younger brother of Sima Lang, the prime minister! ’
It was in the winter that Sima Yi, who came from Bingzhou and entered the Prime Minister's Mansion through the introduction of his eldest brother.
"Are you...?" Sima Lang only introduced Cao Cao once, Sima Yi is young, and he is in this military camp, so he naturally has a general impression, and Cao Cao is just looking at his Sima family's name, and he gave the position casually, and now...
"You are the second son of the Sima family, your name is Sima Yi Sima Zhongda, right?" Cao Cao frowned, and asked not very surely: "What is Zhongda's plan, let's hear it!" …”
Cao Cao saw that he was young, but he was not chaotic on the spot, and his demeanor was steady. He also became a little interested, and he just wanted to give his civil and military a little time to think
Sima Yi saw Cao Cao's expression in his heart, and his face flashed with 'joy', and then 'very coincidentally' was noticed by everyone who looked at him, "It's Zhongda." ”
Sima Yi bowed and saluted, his young face was a little 'high-spirited', "Fang Cai Zhongda also listened carefully, Cao Gong's situation is indeed worrying now!" ”
As soon as Sima Yi's words came out, his eldest brother on the side was shocked. Even the civil and military in the tent looked disappointed, but then
"And what Cao Gong is worried about is only a few things!"
"First, the matter of His Majesty's departure, such as today's general trend has basically stabilized, the male lord is clear, only Cao Gong, Liu Xiu, Sun Shi, Liu Bei are four, and Cao Gong's dominance in the north has been decided. Why cling to false fame; Since Your Majesty wants to leave, it is also a good thing to let Your Majesty return! ”
"And now His Majesty is no longer the Majesty of the past, he will no longer trust the other princes, therefore. He won't go to others for help, he will only try his best to get the military power city himself..."
Sima Yi's evaluation of Liu Xie, others also nodded in agreement, especially Guo Jia. They also never cared about Liu Xie's threat, only Chu Hou Liu Xiu, Sun Clan. and the situation in the north, so that they can pay attention
"And the crisis in Yingchuan comes from Chuhou, Nanyang Wancheng to Yingchuan is only a line away, two days away! Therefore, Cao Gong's top priority is to increase the number of troops in Yingchuan, otherwise once Yingchuan is breached, Yanzhou and Yuzhou will be exposed to the Marquis of Chu...! ”
Sima Yi continued to explain the facts that all the strategists knew, and as he deepened, he gradually let Cao Cao know that his skills were not inferior to Xun You, Cheng Yu and others.
Seeing the surprise in everyone's eyes, Sima Yi still said with an unchanged face: "However, Cao Gong's soldiers and horses are mostly used elsewhere, and they are no longer enough for the defense of Yingchuan, so..."
Sima Yi raised his head, looked at Cao Cao, and raised his voice: "Zhongda has a plan, which can let Cao Gong free up many soldiers and horses for the defense of Yingchuan!" ”
"What's the idea? Hurry up! Cao Cao's tone was a little hurried.
"Cao Gongdang knows that the third son of the Yuan family, now Yuan Xi occupies Youzhou, Yuan Tan occupies Qingzhou, and Yuan Shang is taken in by Yuan Xi!"
"And the three sons of the Yuan family have always been at odds, before the three of them were afraid of Cao Gong's strength in Jizhou, and they did not make a big move, but now that Cao Gong is going south, the three of them have the heart to fight, and this Yuan civil war is only one cause away!"
"I don't know if Gong Cao thinks so?!" Sima Yi looked at Cao Cao and asked.
"Exactly!" Cao Cao simply replied, this is a well-known thing, "It's not a simple matter to instigate the third son of the Yuan family, what is Zhongda's clever plan?!" ”
"Zhongda has a plan, but I'm afraid that Cao Gong will abandon it." Sima Yi suddenly laughed.
"What a clever plan, how could Cao abandon it!" When Cao Cao heard this, he was immediately curious, and even Cao Cao's major strategists were also curious.
"Cao Gong can send a dead soldier to assassinate Yuan Xi!" Sima Yi looked at Cao Cao with eagle eyes and said, "It's just that this assassination technique is a small way, and Cao Gongxiong is only a big one, and he uses this trick to be quite a little..."
"Assassinate Yuan Xi?!" Sima Yi's words really made everyone frown, they really rarely use this method, and they rarely think about it, just because this way of assassination is like gambling, and only those who are forced to be in a hurry will be willing to put chips on this way.
"Assassination, although it is a small way, but to capture the thief and capture the king, as long as Yuan Xi dies, not only can he blame Yuan Tan, but also make Youzhou chaotic," Sima Yi lowered his eyebrows and looked at Cao Cao and the other civil and military forces, and continued: "And even if the assassination fails, in the end, Cao Gong can take Youzhou and Qingzhou without spending a single soldier...!" ”
"No! Xun Yu was the first to stand up and object, he was born in Confucianism, grew up in Confucianism, and was upright, although the battlefield strategy and intrigues were endless, but he was strongly opposed to such a partial door, because that would only make the male master become a villain...!
"The lord is eloquent, how can he use this strategy!" Xun Yu continued to object.
However, Xun Yu's words did not seem to be approved by Jia Xu, Cheng Yu, Guo Jia and others, Jia Xu, as a poisoner, naturally has nothing to say, Cheng Yu is in charge of Cao Cao's intelligence, espionage and other things, so naturally he does not object; Guo Jia will only think about the big picture and the result...
"As long as Cao Gong can bring Qingzhou Youzhou under his rule in this winter, when the spring of the next year begins, no matter this Jiangxia, Xuzhou, or Yingchuan crisis, it will not be a problem for Cao Gong!"
…
Sima Yi is eloquent, he explained and narrated to his heart's content, talking about Cao Cao's intentions, talking about Xun You's heart, and saying that even Guo Jia, Jia Xu and others didn't care
The plan of Qingyou Erzhou was finally advanced
Sima Yi smiled in his heart, the light in his eyes flashed inexplicably, and he said secretly: It's done...! (To be continued.) )
