Chapter 206: Sima Yi's thoughts

Hearing Sima Yi say that he wanted to explain, Liu Hou secretly thought: "Driving tens of thousands of people to die, even if there is a big reason, it can't be justified, I think you have something to explain this time." ”

I only heard Sima Yi say: "Your Majesty, the family of the criminal ministers, the Sima clan of Hanoi, has settled in Hanoi County since the time of Emperor Gaozu, and after hundreds of years of multiplication, there are now tens of thousands of people. The criminal ministers not only have a large number of people, but also many people hold official positions in the Cao Wei court, including several brothers of the guilty ministers.

If Cao Pi knew that the criminal minister had returned to His Majesty, he would inevitably be angry with the criminal minister's family, and the seven brothers of the criminal minister, and even tens of thousands of Sima clansmen, would probably be condemned or even slaughtered by Cao Pi. The ministers really can't bring calamity to their brothers and people because of their own selfishness.

So the guilty man thought of a way, which was to pretend to be defeated and captured, rather than surrender. Although there is also a crime in being defeated and captured, the sin is not so great after all, and Cao Pi will not necessarily anger the clansmen of the guilty ministers.

He also asked His Majesty to be magnanimous and allowed the guilty to pretend to be captured, and the guilty was willing to hide behind His Majesty's back in the future and give advice to His Majesty. Please also ask Your Majesty to fulfill the guilty ministers, save the clansmen of the guilty ministers, and the great kindness of Your Majesty, the guilty ministers will be inscribed in the five. ”

It seems that Sima Yi knows his value very well, and knows that Liu Hou needs his mind, so he puts himself in the position of a shadow strategist. But Liu Hou was still angry:

"Although it is understandable for you to cheat for your family, it is still a very selfish expression to sacrifice tens of thousands of soldiers in exchange for your clansmen."

"This ...... Ask for forgiveness. Hearing Liu Hou's words, Sima Yi knelt down in fear and asked for forgiveness.

Sima Yi didn't expect Liu Hou's way of thinking to be so peculiar, choosing between the soldiers of Wei and his own tens of thousands of people, I believe that most people in this world would choose the latter. What's more, in Sima Yi's opinion, the two countries of Wei and Shu are hostile, and the more Wei soldiers die, the happier this little emperor of Shu should be.

Where did you think that this little emperor had long regarded the 200,000 soldiers under his command as his own bag, and he didn't want them to lose anything.

"Even if you want to pretend defeat, there are other ways, you should want to send someone to talk to us about a better way to minimize the loss of human life. You are doing such nonsense, you are simply treating human life like a mustard. In vain, you are still known as a wise and close demon, and you are so disappointed to use such a simple and crude method. Liu Hou said angrily.

"The guilty minister is guilty, please punish His Majesty." Sima Yi looked sincere and pleaded guilty.

How did Liu Hou know that the reason why Sima Yi used such a simple and crude method, in addition to what was said above, he didn't expect the little emperor to react so much, there were also considerations such as clumsiness and self-defilement.

Of course, he knows that in the eyes of the world, he is a monster who is wise and close to demons, and a person with a profession like the emperor will not be at ease with people who have too many thoughts, and he will definitely use it and guard against it. What's more, if you are still a subordinate, you will not be trusted.

So he deliberately showed his hand and made a failure, Liu Hou made this new boss and the new colleagues of the minister of Shu feel that they are nothing more than that, and there is nothing remarkable, and they don't need to be special to themselves, and treat themselves specially.

And burying tens of thousands of lives by his own hands also means self-defilement, he just wants to leave some stains on his life, so that he will not make people suspicious of a little merit in the future, and even worry that his high merit will be suppressed.

The only thing he didn't calculate was that Liu Hou cared so much about the lives of tens of thousands of Wei soldiers, and correspondingly, his dissatisfaction with himself was much heavier because of this incident.

But it doesn't matter, he originally wanted to defile himself, especially in the current situation, he must lie dormant for a period of time, until this little emperor of Shu can push the political # power of #overturning Cao Pi, so that the clansmen of the Sima clan are completely safe, and he can come out and walk openly.

Now it's just that Cheng Dù is different, there is nothing wrong with the general direction of self-pollution, he is very confident in his talent, he believes that the little emperor of Shu will not give up on himself, otherwise he would not have robbed his family from Xuchang at such a big price.

He saw that Liu Hou had invested so many resources, and it was impossible to abandon his strange goods before recovering the cost, wouldn't that make him lose all his money? He calculated this correctly and firmly believed that the little emperor of Shu would not kill himself until he recovered the cost, so he was very relieved about his safety.

Where did Liu Hou know that Sima Yi had so much thought, but he felt that he really didn't handle this matter well, so he criticized him a few words. Seeing that he had a good attitude of admitting his mistakes, his anger disappeared a lot. He didn't think that Sima Yi's good attitude of admitting mistakes was actually pretended.

"Zhongda, you must be cautious and thoughtful in your future work. In addition, I would like to tell you that in my opinion, human life is the most precious at all times, whether it is the Wei State, the Wu State or our Shu Han people, in fact, they are all Han people, and we must be merciful to Han people, and we must not sacrifice their lives at every turn.

Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, our Han people have suffered countless casualties, and the vitality of the whole world has been greatly damaged. It was precisely because of this that I was in such a hurry to launch the Northern Expedition. Otherwise, I will definitely not start a war without permission, and I will have to let the people of the world rest and recuperate for a few years.

Zhong Da should remember that when planning a battle in the future, he should try to use methods that kill less or even no people. Save more vitality for our Hermes-Epitek, and you will have a better chance of winning in the battle against foreign races in the future. ”

Hearing Liu Hou call himself "Zhongda" Sima Yi relieved himself, knowing that he had made the right bet this time, and his safety was safe. After listening to the little emperor say the precautions when planning the battle, he was completely relieved, and the emperor said this kind of thing, proving that he would still use his own in the future.

It's just that he didn't expect the little emperor to say that he would save the vitality of the Han people and fight against foreign invasions in the future. Although these words are only a few sentences, in the eyes of the highly intelligent Sima Yi, these words reveal a lot of information.

How did this little emperor know that there would be foreign invasions of the Central Plains in the future? Did he predict that the Han people in the Central Plains would not be able to resist foreign invasions in the future, so he was so anxious? If that's the case, it's incredible. Of course, maybe it wasn't him who predicted it, but his master Zuo Ci.

Legend has it that Zuo Ci knew astronomy and geography, and was especially good at stargazing. Could it be that he also deduced these future situations? If this proposition is true, then the legend that this little emperor is the true dragon son must also be true, otherwise Zuo Ci, who has the title of half-immortal, would not have deigned to come down the mountain to assist him.
