When Sima Yi and Yu Ban arrived, they quickly reorganized their army.

Soon after the two arrived, news came from Yecheng that Cao 'Cao' ordered an all-out attack on Wu.

In the tent.

Cao Pi and Sima Yi sat down.

Cao Pi's face was solemn, and he said, "Sir, Zhang Liao and Xun Yu are in Liu Xiu's hands. The father sent Yang Xiu to Qi 'Chun' County, intending to exchange the two of them. โ€

"Father's plan is good. โ€

"But Liu Xiu's conditions were quite harsh, he asked us to attack Wu with all our might, and then consider 'handing' back the two after Wu was destroyed. โ€

"This is clearly driving the tiger and the wolf. โ€

"With the help of our strength, to annex the state of Wu. โ€

"After the destruction of the Wu State, Xun You and Zhang Liao will become Liu Xiu's sharp weapons to coerce his father. โ€

Cao Pi said worriedly: "If we destroy the Wu State now, we will only help Liu Xiu, and it will do us all kinds of harm but not good." In my opinion, it is better to temporarily unite with Wu State, 'force' Liu Xiu, and let Liu Xiu 'hand' Xun You and Zhang Liao. โ€

Sima Yi lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, but did not speak.

Cao Pi said: "Sir, you have something to say." โ€

Sima Yi suddenly said, "Shizi, is this the result of your careful consideration?"

When Cao Pi heard this, he immediately hesitated.

Listening to Sima Yi's meaning, it seems that there is an extraneous meaning.

Cao Pi said: "Please explain your doubts." โ€

Sima Yi patted the wrinkles on his body and said slowly: "The idea of the prince is contrary to that of King Wei, diametrically opposed. โ€

Cao Pi said: "Isn't it the truth that I am considering?"

Sima Yizheng said, "You think about it along King Wei's train of thought?"

Cao Pi was a little impatient and said, "Mr. just tell me directly?"

Sima Yi didn't care about Cao Pi's emotions at all, and said in a very flat tone: "You can't replace the prince in everything. โ€

When Cao Pi heard this, he calmed down.

He understood that Sima Yi was mentioning him, not deliberately not saying it.

Cao Pi thought in the direction of Cao's 'Cao' and carefully analyzed why Cao 'Cao' wanted to attack Wu.

After a while, Cao Pi said: "Father is thinking about whether it is because even if we unite with the Wu State, we will be coerced by Liu Xiu. Instead of this, it is better to attack the state of Wu. After destroying the state of Wu, consider the follow-up arrangements. โ€

Sima Yi said: "The prince's analysis is half right. โ€

Cao Pi said: "What else is the reason?"

Sima Yi sighed and said, "Shizi, you don't know King Wei. โ€

Cao Pi said: "Please give me advice." โ€

Sima Yi's expression was still very calm, and he explained lightly: "In the face of the great cause of the Wei State, the King of Wei will not change the direction of the Wei State for Xun You and Zhang Liao. โ€

"Wei Wangqi Chongxun You and Zhang Liao are real, but there is always a choice in everything. โ€

"King Wei's choice is the overall situation of Wei. โ€

"Destroying the state of Wu, the power of the King of Wei to encircle the forces of Bingzhou, Jizhou, Xuzhou, Yangzhou, Youzhou and other places is enough to fight a decisive battle with Liu Xiu. even, suppressed Liu Xiu. โ€

"And to redeem Zhang Liao and Xun You, it is impossible to pay Yuzhou and other places. โ€

"To some extent, the King of Wei has given up on Xun You and Zhang Liao. โ€

Sima Yi said eloquently: "Liu Xiu, like King Wei, cherishes talents and loves them more. Liu Xiu got Zhang Liao and Xun You, and he would not kill them. As long as the King of Wei defeats Liu Xiu, he will be able to recapture the two of them. โ€

Cao Pi said: "What if it fails?"

Sima Yi said coldly: "Failed, what is the chance of the existence of the Wei State? That step is no longer in the scope of the consideration of the King of Wei. โ€

"Shhh

Cao Pi gasped when he heard this.

Cao Wei and Liu Chu fought a decisive battle, and if Cao Wei failed, Liu Xiu would go north in one go.

At that time, the Wei State will definitely be swept away.

Sima Yi's eyes narrowed into a line, and said: "King Wei was seriously ill, and Hua Tuo cured his headache. But in King Wei's heart, the obsession with dominating the world is getting stronger and stronger. He is an old man, and he is determined to fight Liu Xiu. โ€

Cao Pi also knows Cao's obsession with dominating the world. Cao's determination to unify the world has always existed.

Because of this, Cao 'Cao' attacked the state of Wu.

Sima Yi said: "Having said so much, does the prince understand?"

Cao Pi sighed and said, "I see." โ€

Taking a deep breath, Cao Pi continued: "Sir, if we want to attack the State of Wu, how should we attack it? Lu Xun held Danyang County and defended the Yangtze River moat. Our naval army is on the Yangtze River and is not an opponent of Wu at all. If you want to force your way south, you must have great difficulties. โ€

Sima chuckled twice and shook his head again.

Seeing this, Cao Pi was stunned again.

What does shaking head mean?

Cao Pi relies on Sima Yi very much and respects him, but Sima Yi always likes to sell Guanzi, which is very bad.

Cao Pi said: "What do you mean, sir?

Sima Yi said: "The son of the world is wise. โ€

Cao Pi glanced up at Sima Yi and was very surprised. But this time, instead of asking, he began to think.

did not send troops, but Cao 'Cao' ordered troops again.

The trade-offs are not easy.

Cao Pi thought for a while, and said: "What Mr. means is to pretend to send troops, and then sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight." โ€

Sima Yi pondered for a moment before he spoke: "The prince of the world missed the most important point, pretending to send troops in front, sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, and finally the snipe and clam competing for the benefit of the fisherman. โ€

"The news we just got that Zhou Yu was defeated by Tai Shi Ci, and the 'elite' of Chu State has gone straight to Wu County. โ€

"It is foreseeable that the destruction of the State of Chu and the State of Wu is just around the corner. โ€

"The state of Chu is so strong, why do we need to compete with the state of Chu? โ€

"What we need to do now is the follow-up layout. โ€

"It is necessary to make arrangements for pretending to cross the river to attack Lu Xun, and it is also necessary to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. โ€

"But we have to take advantage of the opportunity. โ€

"Once it is the critical moment to destroy Wu, we will send troops to attack Liu Xiu. โ€

Sima Yi said: "In this way, in the follow-up 'engagement' with Liu Xiu, you can take the initiative." The gains and losses of one city and one place are not important, if you can destroy the living force of Chu State, even if you don't get one city and one place of Wu State, it is worth it. โ€

When Cao Pi heard this, he was greatly impressed.

Xun You and Sima Yi's strategies are in completely different directions.

Sima Yi's strategy tended to be more defensive, counterattacking in defense and not giving the opponent a chance.

Such a strategy, once attacked, would be a fatal blow.

Cao Pi sighed with emotion: "If Master Xun and Mr. Xun were as cautious, they would not have been defeated. โ€

Sima Yi shook his head, denied Cao Pi's words, and said: "Shizi, if I change my position in Xun Junshi, I will also be tricked." Different situations, different strategies. Xun Gongda and Zhang Wenyuan encountered the situation at that time, as long as they crossed the Yangtze River, they would inevitably fall into the scheme, which was something that could not be helped. โ€

Cao Pi bowed slightly.

Although Sima Yi defended Xun You, Cao Pi still agreed with Sima Yi more and thought that Sima Yi was superior.

Cao Pi said: "I already understand what Mr. means. โ€

Sima Yi said: "It's good that the prince understands. โ€

After a pause, Sima Yi said: "The next thing will be 'handed over' to the prince and Yu Ban to negotiate." Yu Ban is good at defense. Now under the command of the king, Yu Ban is also an important general, and the prince has to 'communicate' with Yu Ban more. โ€

Cao Pi said: "I understand what Mr. said!"

This time, he came to the front line, not only to make meritorious contributions, but also to have a good relationship with military generals.

With the support of military generals, Cao Pi's status will be more stable.

Cao Pi left the tent and went to find Yu Ban.

Sima Yi sat in the tent, picked up another roll of bamboo slips, and continued to read.

Regarding the war between Chu and Wei, Sima Yi was actually not very worried. Because in Sima Yi's opinion, it was easy for Chu to attack Wu, because the soldiers of Chu were originally southerners.

But the state of Chu wanted to attack the state of Wei and fight in the north, but it was different.
