Wuguan.

Peng Xiaoyu sat in the big tent, carefully mending a torn battle robe.

The battle robe belonged to her brother Peng Heng.

Soon after she fled to Wancheng, Peng Heng was transferred from the leader of the Xizuo battalion to the captain of Sima Shi's personal guard battalion, and her rank was raised, but she no longer had access to those confidential events, and she had to go to the front line to fight. He attacked Shangluo with Sima Yi's father and son, and served as a death squad several times, and the masters around him who were loyal to him had already died, and even he himself was injured. The robe that Peng Xiaoyu is sewing is enough to show how close he is to death.

Despite this, Peng Heng did not dare to have any complaints. He knew very well that it was impractical to escape with his sister, and if he escaped alone, Peng Xiaoyu's fate would be very miserable. But let Peng Xiaoyu escape, Peng Xiaoyu resolutely refused, there was no way, the two brothers and sisters had to suffer here, until one day he died on the battlefield.

"Xiaoyu, don't be tough, go first." Peng Heng looked at the roof that had turned black, and said softly: "If you leave, I can leave with confidence." ”

"Interesting?" Peng Xiaoyu bit off the thread with her teeth, and quickly covered her clothes on Peng Heng's body: "Don't say that I can't get out alone, even if I can get out, as long as those people can't see me for a long time, your head will be hung on the city wall." ”

"But...... If this continues, I don't know which ditch my head will fall in. ”

"Don't talk nonsense." Peng Xiaoyu interrupted Peng Heng's words involuntarily: "If you want to eat something, I'll make it for you." ”

"Xiaoyu!" Peng Heng reached out and grabbed Peng Xiaoyu's hand, and said anxiously, "Xiaoyu." Do you listen to your brother's advice? Hurry up, go to Lingling, don't die here with me. When King Chen entered the dynasty, Bixia was obviously suspicious of Sima and his son, and in order to prove their innocence, they had to purge all the dead soldiers who might be exposed. It's even more impossible for someone like me to stay, and your stay here will only make me worried. ”

The Peng brothers and sisters had already discussed the possible impact of Cao Zhichao many times, and at this moment Peng Xiaoyu glanced at Peng Heng: "If you die." Will I be able to rest assured? ”

"You're gone. I'll have a chance to escape. ”

"You think I'm a three-year-old?" Peng Xiaoyu sat back, held her cheeks, and thought for a while: "Why don't I contact the young master's people, and we will escape to Fangling together?" The young master of the wind is in the tomb. Just enter the house. We'll be safe. ”

"Don't make a big contribution. I can't leave. Peng Heng raised his hand and stroked the blue spot on Peng Xiaoyu's face. Xiaoyu, you don't look good. Our Peng family can't be compared with the Guan family and the Xiahou family, if you don't prepare a weighty dowry for you and enter the Wei family, how can you have a good life. ”

"Brother......" Peng Xiaoyu's face turned red, and she was about to say a few words to her brother, but her nose was involuntarily sore, and tears rolled down.

"Ahem!" A loud cough sounded outside, Peng Xiaoyu was startled, quickly wiped her tears, got up and stood at the door of the tent. As soon as the tent door was lifted, Sima Shi walked in slowly, looked at the Peng brothers and sisters, and laughed: "Xuanyu, what's wrong, why is Sister Ling crying?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just a little sad to think of my parents for a while." Peng Heng insisted on sitting up and wanted to go down to the ground to salute. Sima Shi gently pressed him, "Xuanyu, if you are injured, don't get up." Lie down, I have something to tell you. ”

Peng Heng said respectfully: "The general commands." ”

"Zhuge Liang was in Guanzhong, and his henchman Jiang Wan was transferred to Lingling, and Chengdu has now become Li Yan's world. We think this is a bit abnormal, but we don't know the clues, and we want you to go back to Chengdu to find out about the situation. Whether Li Yan and Zhuge Liang reached a compromise, or Li Yan seized the opportunity to fight for power. If it's the latter, that's certainly a good thing. If it's the former, we'll have to do something about it. Shu Han is now getting stronger and stronger, and if we don't create some disputes within them, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for long. ”

Sima Shi said his intention straight to the point, Peng Heng couldn't figure out whether he was true or false for a while, and he didn't know how to answer him, so he could only be silent. Sima Shi was not in a hurry, looked around, and sighed: "Recently, the military affairs have been busy, I am a little overwhelmed, all kinds of materials are supplied to the Tongguan battlefield, I am also stretched, you are so bad here, I really don't want to go." Xuanyu, don't worry, after you leave, I will arrange a better place for your sister to live, and I won't let her be wronged. ”

Sima Shi finished the task and turned to leave. The Peng brothers and sisters looked at each other. At this moment, Peng Xiaoyu will definitely not be able to run away.

"You......" Peng Heng sighed in frustration.

"It's fine." Peng Xiaoyu calmed down instead: "At least you don't have to die in front of the battle." Brother, you can go to Chengdu with confidence and see what is going on. The young master and Li Yan are getting close, and I always feel that it is not a good thing. If you have the chance, ask the young master what he thinks of this. ”

"And what do you do?"

"Master Sima won't kill me." Peng Xiaoyu smiled: "If he wants to kill me, he won't wait until today." She was stunned for a while, and said with a smile: "The young master robbed Miss Xiahou, there is a thorn in his heart that can't be pulled out." This is a good thing, and he will play against the young master in the future, this is his flaw. ”

……

Sima Shi returned to the Zhongjun tent, Sima Yi paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, and Sima Zhao stood aside with his hands arched. Seeing Sima Shi walk in, Sima Yi's eyes swept away: "Arranged it?" ”

"It's already arranged."

Sima Yi didn't ask again, he knew very well that Sima Shi was cautious, and since he said that it was arranged, there would be no mistakes. But when it came to Wei Ba, he still frowned: "This can't go wrong." Our father and son are in a difficult situation right now, and we can't let this woman have problems. ”

Sima Shi nodded vigorously. "Father rest assured, nothing goes wrong." He thought for a moment and said, "Father doesn't have to worry too much. Although Bixia uses King Chen, he may not be able to trust King Chen, if King Chen has made military achievements, it may not be a good thing, if he is defeated, then of course he doesn't have to worry about it, Bixia can only regard his father as a confidant. ”

"How is General Zhenwei's health?"

"It's bad." Sima Shi shook his head, his face was a little unpleasant. After Xiahou Hui was robbed. Sima Yi looked for a wife for him, but the Zhenwei general Wu Zhen took the initiative to show favor and married his daughter to him. Wu Zhen and Sima Yi are both one of the four friends of Emperor Wen, but Wu Zhen has a bad character and is very poor, and he is not compatible with the Sima family, who pays attention to reputation. When they talked about Wu Zhen between father and son, they did not have personal feelings, and directly called them General Zhenwei. Sima Shi also has no feelings for his wife Wu, and he doesn't understand Sima Yi's acceptance of this marriage.

"There are a lot of elites under Wu Zhi's command, you have to think of a way to ask some people to come over and make a part." Sima Yi said calmly: "Wei Ba is accumulating grain and grass in Jingnan and Jiaozhou. It doesn't take much. We're going to play again. At that time, the only thing we can have the upper hand is the cavalry, and we must not make some preparations in advance. ”

"Whoa." Sima Shi looked at Sima Zhao and asked tentatively, "Did King Chen go to Tongguan?" ”

"Yes. So I don't want to fight. Please retreat to Shinno. Always ready to pick up Xiangyang. There has been a movement in Fangling recently, and I have reported it to Bixia, and Bixia has agreed. ”

Sima Shi frowned slightly: "Bixia just agreed?" ”

"Of course not. He asked me to transfer some people to King Chen to support Tongguan. Sima Yi suddenly sighed softly: "Jin Dong has harmed me very much. ”

When Sima Shi heard this name, his expression darkened. Now Jin Dongliu and Wang Shuang are already two important generals under Wei Ba, Wang Shuang is just that, he was originally Xiahou Shang's subordinate, but Jin Dongliu was picked up by Sima Yi, he became Wei Ba's henchman, which really made Sima Yi's face gloomy, plus Chen Wang Cao Zhi's matter hit Sima Yi very hard, he is now a little disheartened, and his mind about recruiting talents is a little light.

This is what worries Sima Shi the most. It is understandable to be suppressed for a while, but if you lose the desire to fight, you will lose completely. But he didn't know how to persuade Sima Yi, Cao Zhi was thirty-eight, Cao Rui was twenty-five, but Sima Yi was already fifty-one. When people are over fifty, they begin to go downhill, and it is inevitable that they will be intimidated to compete with Cao's uncle and nephew who are in their youth.

Perhaps, it is not a good thing to take advantage of this opportunity to retire. Even Sima Shi had such thoughts, but he was very unwilling. Of course, he also knew that his father was not reconciled, otherwise he would not have let him accumulate liliang through the Wu clan to ask Wu for the subordinates, and prepare to fight back.

Taking defense as attack and retreating as advance has always been Sima Yi's stunt to save his life. At this time, it is only dormant.

……

When Sima Yi was about to hibernate, Li Yan was in high spirits.

Fa Miao returned from Lingling and brought Wei Ba's reply. Although Wei Ba did not explicitly express his intention to join him, Wei Ba once again reiterated that he would fully support his work, and agreed to hand over the grain and grass transported from Jiaozhou to him with full authority, and left Yizhou people like Zhang Biao and Yang Xi, in fact, their attitude was already very clear.

In the officialdom, no one will say it so clearly, after all, Li Yan does not dare to expect to take Wei Ba under his command. The relationship between him and Wei Ba is more of a cooperative relationship, rather than a subordinate relationship. If Wei Ba made a clear statement, Li Yan couldn't believe it.

Li Yan immediately ordered that after entering the Yangtze River, on the grounds that the grain ship might be robbed by the Wei army through the territory of Xiangyang, he turned to go up the river, transferred to Xiling for land transportation, entered Anqiaosai, and went all the way to Fangling.

This route doesn't seem to make much of a difference, but it's actually very well-written. After changing from the waterway through Xiangyang to the land route through Fangling, the safety factor has increased, but the consumption on the way has also increased greatly. Moreover, after the grain arrived in Fangling, Meng Da did not immediately transport it to Guanzhong, but intercepted a large amount and kept it for his own use.

Subsequently, Meng Da found Wu Yi with Li Yan's order and asked Wu Yi to order an army to Xiangyang, threaten Cao Rui in Wancheng, contain the Wei army's forces, and reduce the pressure on Guanzhong. With Li Yan's orders in his hands, and the soldiers who are eager to make meritorious contributions behind him, as well as sufficient grain, grass and ordnance, it seems that everything is simply ready, only the east wind is owed, and Wu Yi can't think of any excuse to refuse.

So Wu Yi was sick, he couldn't afford to be sick, and he didn't know about the personnel, so the military power was naturally handed over to Meng Da. Meng Da had a heavy army in hand, and despite the strong opposition of the prison army Zongxuan, he ordered to send troops to Xiangyang, and at the same time replied to Li Yan.

When Li Yan got the news, he smiled slightly and wrote a letter to Zhuge Liang. There is a war in Xiangyang, and a large amount of grain and grass is needed, and there may be no grain and grass to support Guanzhong before Wei Ba transports more grain and grass. Prime Minister, you have to be patient and hold on...... (To be continued......)
