Chapter Forty-Eight: Cutting Trees First, Cutting Branches
Sima Yi sat on the main peak of Mount Emei, drinking tea in the newly repaired pavilion while chatting with Sima Fu. Sima Fu was very worried about Sima Jin's situation: Second brother, sixth brother has been gone for so long, why is there no trivial matter, will something happen?
Sima Yi was silent. Looking at the green mountains in the distance, thinking about his own affairs. The news from Sima Lang from Cao Pi has been confirmed, and Cao Pi is not in the mood to be an enemy of Li Hui. Cao Pi was bent on following the path of Liu Bang's army, and then competing with Li Hui for the world, and had no interest in Sima Lang's suggestion that Lian and the princes deal with Li Hui first.
Cao Pi didn't move, and Liu Bei didn't dare to move. Jiangnan Sun Quan can't count on it at all, the only thing that can be seen now is whether the rest of Xianbei and Qianghu and Xiongnu will make any moves, if Xianbei can drive Zhang Liao to the Great Wall, Qianghu and Xiongnu will take and merge the state, and their next move will be settled.
Sima Fu asked: Will there be any danger for the second brother, the fourth brother and the fifth brother to go outside?
Sima Yi still didn't answer. Picked up the teacup and took a sip gently. For this plan, he did not hesitate to sacrifice his sixth brother Sima Jin and trapped Li Hui's 100,000 army overseas. Without the help of an army of 100,000, it might have been easier to attack Hebei. There is only one Zhang Liao outside the Saiwai, and there is only one Wei Yan in Bingzhou. Xianbei mobilized an army of 100,000, and the combined forces of Qianghu and Xiongnu also had 80,000, so it may be possible to take these two places in one go.
Sima Fu was a little depressed, and he asked questions again and again, but Sima Yi ignored them. Sima Fu stood up and said, "Second brother, you have something to say!" The sixth brother went overseas alone, knowing that there was more than one bad luck, the third brother and the fourth brother went to live outside Xianbei, and the seventh and eighth brothers helped Qianghu and the Huns.
The third brother is a little restless! Sima Yi put down the teacup: \u201 When they left, they had already 'handed over' the generations clearly, no matter whether they won or lost, they would save their 'life', Li Hui's Hebei army was brave, which was known to the world, so he had to make this risky move, only those Xianbei, Xiongnu, and Qianghu people could not pose a threat to Li Hui at all, and there was no way to do it.
Sima Fu returned to his seat and sat down again: Second brother, it is better for you to go down the mountain, live in the second uncle to take Yizhou, and then give Hanzhong to Cao Pi, only in this way can Cao Pi really be the enemy of Li Hui, now not only does not fight Li Hui, but drags this Liu Bei, after a long time, Li Hui returns to the army, and their situation is not good.
Sima Yi smiled: Third brother, you think things simply, the princes of this world are not what they want to do, Liu Bei relies on the identity of the emperor's nephew, Cao Pi has the identity of the prime minister and the puppet emperor behind him, Sun Quan has gone through three generations in Jiangdong, and Li Hui has a deep people's heart in Hebei, what do they have, if they go down the mountain so rashly, not only can they not take Yizhou, even if they take Yizhou, the people of Yizhou may not recognize them, but they have become the target of public criticism.
What else did Sima Fu say, Sima Yi shook his head: There is a priority in things, what they lack is an opportunity, an opportunity to be recognized by the world! Li Hui is now the largest, it is not easy to defeat Li Hui, it must be consumed little by little, a city today, a city tomorrow, only if Li Hui is defeated, there will be a day for them to come out!
Ay! Sima Fu sighed. Sima Yi patted Sima Fu on the shoulder: \u201 There is only one word for what they are doing now, forbearance!
In the Changshan Military Division's Mansion, Jia Xu was reading the news sent from Saishang and Bingzhou. At the beginning of this month, the remnants of Xianbei had been assembled and stationed in Yanran Mountain, ready to launch an attack on Saishang at any time. Outside of Bingzhou, Qianghu and Xiongnu have also been assembled, and now they are in full swing and ready to launch an attack on Bingzhou at any time.
After reading the report, Lu Su glanced at Jia Xu's leisurely appearance and asked: The right army division doesn't seem to be nervous at all, and he doesn't care about these 180,000 horses at all!
Jia Xu glanced at Lu Su: Could it be that the overseer is very nervous, but he didn't see it!
Hehe! Lu Su laughed, and Jia Xu also smiled. Jia Xu asked people to pour a cup of tea for Lu Su, and said: The lord is thousands of miles away, and he has already concluded that the princes of the world will not make any progress in this crusade, so why should they worry, there is Zhang Liao on the plug, and Wei Yan in the state, and has ordered Youzhou Zangba to reinforce the plug, and Jizhou Guanhai to reinforce and merge the state, if the four of them can't even send these shrimp soldiers and crab generals, they are no longer worthy of sitting on the governors of the states!
It seems that the Military Supervision Office is busy again! Not to mention anything else, only Jizhou has not fought for almost seven or eight years, and the soldiers will not go into battle, and the sharp spirit of the year has been much less, and a dose of fierce "medicine" is needed to stab the "excited" and "excited"! Lu Su got up and walked towards the 'door'.
Jia Xu smiled indifferently: Don't worry, Guan Hai has already written a military order, with Guan Hai's 'sex' personality, I'm afraid the soldiers under him will not have a good time, rest assured, you can drink tea with peace of mind, and listen to the good news!
Li Hui also cared a lot about this war, although she said it more easily, but when it came to the 'fighting' between the two armies, she couldn't help but feel a little relieved. Pang Tong said with a smile: Is the lord worried about the war in Saishang and Bingzhou?
Li Hui nodded: Judging from the current intelligence, Sima Yi is very likely to be that Ma Ming in Yizhou, this person appeared too strangely, and I don't know how many minions there are in the Sima family!
Pang Tongyi smiled: \u201 The Pang family and the Sima family have fought for hundreds of years without a result, the lord is like relying on a war to solve this matter, it is more difficult to see, the Sima family is huge, there are many side branches, and it is complicated, all kinds of relationships are weighed and weighed 'intertwined', dare to guarantee that there must be Sima's 'treacherous' in Changshan, if the lord deals with Sima's family, first start from self-examination, clear out the Sima clan from their occupied areas, and then eliminate them one by one, until the final beheading of Sima Yi, it is possible to completely cut off Sima's! It's like cutting down a tree, only if you cut off the branches and leaves, the main trunk will be exposed!
Wouldn't that be a bit too much? Li Hui felt that what Pang Tong said was too terrible.
Pang Tong shook his head: The Sima clan has been a thief for hundreds of years, and many times he has various ideas, if he is not completely cut off, even if the lord sits in the north and south in the future, he will one day suffer from the disaster of the Sima clan!
Report\\! The herald came on horseback, came to Li Hui, and threw the stirrup out of the saddle: Report to the lord, the military division, and report to Changshan urgently!
Li Hui hurriedly stretched out his hand to take it. There are two letters, the first one is directly transferred from the plug, with the full cooperation of Zhang Liao and Zang Ba, the remnants of Xianbei have been completely annihilated, and Sima Kui and Sima Xun have been captured.
Good! Li Hui laughed: Zhang Liao did a beautiful job! This solves a lot of trouble!
After reading the first letter and unfolding the second letter, it didn't take long for the smile on Li Hui's face to gradually fade, and before he finished reading it, he said angrily: This Wei Yan caused trouble again just after a few words of praise, and now Cao Pi is afraid that he will not give up with you!
