The morning sun scatters a soft glow, spreading warmth to the earth.

In Xuchang City, where the morning sun shines, the flow of people on the streets begins to bustle. It's just that the people of Xuchang did not start to be busy for a day's livelihood as in the past, but gathered in groups, looking at the notices posted everywhere in the streets and alleys, and talking in a whisper.

On one of the most prosperous streets in Xuchang, where the largest number of people gathered, a young man in his early twenties, as if to show others that he was a cultured person who had read books, read the contents of the notice aloud: "Sima Yi, the general of the Wei hussars, would like to announce to the world with faith: the former Gaozu beheaded the White Snake Uprising, creating a foundation of 400 years, which has been passed down to this day; Unfortunately, treacherous and treacherous, the dragon has been hidden for a long time. Cao Cao, the king of Wei, has no virtue, arrogant self-esteem, and has the difficulty of starting a business with Taizu. Fortunately, the regent swept the eight wildernesses, turned the tide and continued the bloodline of the Han people, which is a fortunate thing for heaven and earth to celebrate. I now obey the will of heaven, Keri Xingshi, lead the army north to Yanjing, and return to the rule of the Han Dynasty to comfort the hope of the people. Notice to the day, those who want to join us in the grand event, can come to the Jizhou border as soon as the first day of the next month! Hope is self-defeating. Needless to say, these notices posted in conspicuous positions everywhere must have been made by the shadow members lurking in Xuchang City, and a counter-plot against Sima Yi officially kicked off.

The young man had just read the contents of the proclamation, and before he could reap the respectful gaze of the man who was regarded as a man of culture, a rough palm pressed against his mouth. A big man dressed as a farmer about thirty years old appeared behind the young man, dragged the young man out of the crowd, and walked quickly towards the secluded place.

It wasn't until after walking hundreds of steps that the young man broke free from the palm of the big man, looked at the big man with an angry face and said, "I said Second Brother Li, what are you pulling me for?" I've finally been able to do it once, and I haven't had enough of it. ”

The strong man known as Second Brother Li hurriedly raised a thick finger. put it on his heavy lips, made a silent gesture to the young man, and then turned his head to look around a few times, and after making sure that there was no one else nearby, he lowered his voice and said: "It's still majestic, if I don't pull you away, I don't know how your head landed!" Is it something you can read casually? One is a hussar general who led a heavy army to garrison the border of Jizhou, and the other is the current high-ranking and powerful King of Wei, a matter between these two people. Is it anything you can say as a hairy boy? Sima Yi now obviously wants to turn against the Great Wei and turn his head to the Northern Han Dynasty, you just read the content of the notice, if the Wei soldiers who are patrolling hear it, it will not be enough to cut off ten heads! ”

Hearing Second Brother Li's words, the young man came to his senses, and a layer of cold sweat immediately broke out on his back, and he reached out to cover his mouth in fear, and he didn't move away for a long time......

However. The words spoken, the water spilled, and the content of the proclamation soon spread throughout Xuchang City. It was like a super-strong infected plague, which reached the ears of Wei Bing, who was in charge of patrolling the city, in the shortest possible time, and then quickly reached Cao Cao, a torn post. appeared completely on Cao Cao's table.

Cao Cao had a gloomy face, read the contents of the notice, and then threw the notice on the ground without saying a word. But his heart was already full of anger. Sima Yi has the ability to look at the wolf, this is something that Cao Cao has seen for a long time, he clearly knows that Sima Yi will not be willing to live under others for a long time, but he didn't expect that Sima Yi would play himself ruthlessly at this time!

Cheng Yu, the strategist, picked up the notice from the ground, read it aloud in a low voice, and told the other civil and military ministers about the content of the notice, and then put away the notice and said solemnly: "King Wei, although Sima Zhongda is ambitious, he deeply feels the kindness of the King of Wei, and has never slackened in the slightest when fighting against the Han army on the front line. ”

Cao Ren, who had lost an arm, immediately stood up and said, "Otherwise! The minister thought that it was precisely because Sima Yi had been repeatedly defeated by Zhuge Liang that he was terrified. I also received news that the Northern Han Dynasty had established five major armies to besiege our country in the Central Plains, so I had the heart to switch to the Northern Han Dynasty, and it was not surprising that Sima Zhongda had such a calculating temperament! "After Cao Ren was cut off an arm by Ao Lie, his resentment towards Ao Lie has reached an overwhelming level, and anyone who can have anything to do with Ao Lie, Cao Ren will regard him as an enemy, not to mention the rise of Sima Yi, which made Cao Ren, who was missing an arm, lose the command of the front-line combat army, so it is not surprising that there is an obvious slander in his tone.

After Cao Ren expressed his opinion, the strategist Xun You stood up and said to Cao Cao: "King Wei, now that the truth has not yet been distinguished, if you rashly conquest Sima Yi, you will force him to rebel." In the opinion of the ministers, this matter may not be done by Sima Zhongda, but perhaps it is a counter-plot made by the Northern Han Dynasty, intending to make our monarch and ministers chaotic. Ao Lie can take advantage of the situation and make the situation in our country even more passive. ”

Xiahoudun, who had a good personal relationship with Cao Ren, immediately took a step forward and said loudly: "Sima Yi's wolf ambition is a well-known thing!" Why do you need to look into it in detail? This person is well versed in strategy, good at military opportunities, and has great ambitions in his chest. If you don't get rid of it early, it will be a trouble! ”

Cao Cao listened quietly to the arguments of his men from the throne, and after the initial outburst, Cao Cao was now much calmer. To be honest, he didn't quite believe that Sima Yi would choose to rebel against Great Wei at this time, because Cao Cao knew that Sima Yi had an indescribable pride in his chest, and this pride was as great as his ambition, so Sima Yi would never fall to Ao Lie's side so easily. And as the saying goes, it is easy to send charcoal in the snow, and it is difficult to add icing on the cake, if Sima Yi turns to the past when the morale of the Northern Han Dynasty is high, I am afraid that he will not be reused by Ao Lie, it is better to continue to stay in the Great Wei to serve, if he can make some meritorious contributions in the battle to keep the Great Wei, his status will definitely rise and truly enter the core leadership of the Great Wei. But on the other hand, Cao Cao was too jealous of Sima Yi's eagle and wolf looks, and wanted to use his ability to resist the Northern Han, but he didn't want to give him too much power, this contradictory mind made it difficult for Cao Cao to make a decision in his heart, whether to believe or not to believe Sima Yi.

Seeing a very rare look of hesitation on Cao Cao's face, General Li Jin stepped forward. Hong Sheng said: "King Wei, as the so-called real gold is not afraid of fire, the King of Wei can follow the former Gaozu Liu Bang's pseudo-Yunmeng plan, go to the border of Jizhou to personally inspect a circle, Sima Yi will definitely react, or lead a large army to come, which is not good for the King of Wei; Either lead a guard of honor to welcome the King of Wei. At that time, it will be clear what Sima Yi thinks in his heart. ”

Cao Cao thought about it again and again, and finally decided to adopt Li Jin's opinion. Go to the border of Jizhou and inspect it for yourself. With Li Jin and Yue Xi, two tiger generals who are thousands of enemies, plus the 50,000 elites accompanying him, even if Sima Yi really has any wrongdoing, he can calmly retreat.

From making a decision to selecting the elite, Cao Cao only took three days to complete, which shows that he was indeed anxious to find out Sima Yi's true thoughts. After all, near the Jizhou border, Sima Yi had 150,000 Wei soldiers in his hands. This is a military force that cannot be lost for the current Wei State, and Cao Cao is not willing to let the 150,000 troops defect to Ao Lie's side.

Fifteen days later, Cao Cao took Li Jin and Yue Xi with two tiger generals. and Cao Ren and other confidants, led an army of 50,000 to the northernmost part of Yanzhou, the border with Jizhou of the Northern Han Dynasty, and the camp of Sima Yi's army was twenty miles away. Until this time. Cao Cao ordered someone to inform Sima Yi of the news of his arrival.

When the messenger sent by Cao Cao came to Sima Yi's military camp and told Cao Cao the news that he had arrived. Sima Yi wanted to show his means of governing the army in front of Cao Cao, win Cao Cao's praise and further trust, and hurriedly ordered the camp to select 50,000 strong soldiers, put on brand new armor, take weapons, and greet Cao Cao's position in full armor.

When Sima Yi led this army to appear on the horizon, Cao Ren was the first to say angrily: "King Wei! Look at it, where did Sima Yi send a guard of honor to greet King Wei, he obviously came to show off his might! Please order the king of Wei to lead the troops to attack, cut off Sima Yi's head and send it to the king of Wei! ”

Cheng Yu and Xun Yu spoke out at the same time to dissuade: "General, don't be impulsive, our army should line up in battle formations to see what happens, if Sima Yi really wants to plot wrong, then kill him." ”

Cao Cao nodded slightly, and said in a low voice: "Zhongde (Cheng Yu's character) and Gongda (Xun Yu's character) are good, Sima Yi is outstanding, if he can be loyal to the monarch and serve the country, it is also a blessing for my Great Wei; But if he dares to have half a different heart, hmph, today next year will be his death day! Li Jin, order the formation! ”

At the same time that Cao Cao saw Sima Yi's queue, Sima Yi also saw Cao Cao's frame. He was just about to restrain his horse, dismount and walk to show his respect for Cao Cao, when Wang Shuang, the deputy general who followed him, suddenly said: "General, the King of Wei has always liked people who advocate martial bravery, why don't the generals show their martial courage in front of the King of Wei?" Perhaps, King Wei will look at the general differently because of this, and the general's situation will be much better. ”

Sima Yi listened to Wang Shuang's words, thought about it for a while in his heart, and thought that what he said was very reasonable. It is no secret that Cao Cao likes upright martial arts people, and the previous Yan Liang and Wen Chou, and now Li Jin and Yue Xi are all good examples. These people can protect Cao Cao's personal safety, and secondly, they are easy to be manipulated by Cao Cao, and there will be no unexpected variables.

In fact, Sima Yi is not a person who easily believes people's words, but his deputy Wang Shuang was by his side eight years ago, and he still has a life-saving grace, and then Sima Yi took a fancy to Wang Shuang's bravery, and specially invited a famous teacher to guide Wang Shuang's martial arts, so that Wang Shuang's martial arts have made great progress, and a meteor hammer made it superb. In the days when he was by his side, Wang Shuang had to fight first, and he didn't know how much blood he had shed, how many injuries he had suffered, and how many hard deeds he had made, so Wang Shuang was Sima Yi's most trusted person in the army, and his words had considerable influence on Sima Yi.

Turning his head and smiling at Wang Shuang, Sima Yi said, "Your suggestion is good, you can try it." If I can use this to dispel some of the doubts that King Wei has about me, I can concentrate on dealing with Zhuge Liang in the future, and I will no longer have to worry about being constrained. ”

After receiving Sima Yi's affirmative reply, Wang Shuang immediately raised the handle of the hammer in his hand and shouted to the 50,000 army behind him: "The hussar general has an order, line up!" Under Wang Shuang's order, the 50,000 elite soldiers moved their steps in a staggered and orderly manner, and soon they were lined up into a yoke array that was good at attacking, three columns and two columns were staggered together, raising the weapons in their hands high, and then marching firmly towards Cao Cao's position!

Seeing that Sima Yi's subordinates actually listed the yoke array, Cao Cao's face immediately became gloomy, and he said to Xiahoudun with a blue face: "Go and ask Sima Yi, what is he going to do?!" ”

Xiahoudun didn't dare to slack off, and immediately broke away from the main formation of his own army, rode alone to a place thirty steps away in front of the big array, and shouted at Sima Yi: "Sima Zhongda! The King of Wei is here, you don't want to get off the horse and walk, why do you want to list the battle formation? ”

Sima Yi had been stationed here for a long time, and he didn't know anything about the rumors in Xuchang City, and after hearing Xiahoudun's question, he raised his voice and said: "Sima Yirong is dressed up, so I can't pay a full salute to the King of Wei." "In the Han Dynasty, the military generals who were tasked with the task of going on the expedition could salute their superiors without dismounting, and Sima Yi's approach was fundamentally not wrong, however, what he did at the moment, in Cao Cao's eyes, completely changed the taste, and Sima Yi's original intention became two opposite directions.

Cao Cao, who was in the center of the big array, shot an endless ruthless color in his eyes, and while slowly raising his right hand, he said in a low voice: "Wolf ambition, the crime cannot be punished!" Kill! At the same time as the last killing word was spit out, Cao Cao's right hand raised in mid-air slashed down, and silently gave the order to attack Sima Yi's department. (To be continued......)
