After Cao Shuang got the news of the Luoyang Revolution, he immediately built a camp in the south of Yishui, cut down trees for antlers, and sent thousands of soldiers to defend it.

"Today's great general is cool, turning his back on his life, defeating the national code, arrogant inside, and dictatorial outside...... Dividing the second house, hurting flesh and blood, the world is turbulent, and people are afraid...... The ministers are very strong and the soldiers are fighting on the Tunluo water pontoon bridge, and they are very inspected! "The envoy of Luoyang read Sima Yi's letter in front of Emperor Cao Fang of Wei.

This letter is written to Cao Fang in name, so why not to Cao Shuang and his cronies?

Especially in the last sentence, Sima Yi personally led the troops to block the Luoshui pontoon bridge, which brought more psychological shock.

If it were anyone else, Cao Shuang would never hesitate, and immediately led the troops back.

But if the opponent is Sima Yi, it's a different story.

Sima Yi has been conquering the world for decades, attacking all battles and being invincible, only one defeat and one draw in the hands of Zhuge Liang, and the rest have won a complete victory.

Forty years of military might, like a knife against Cao Shuang and everyone's hearts.

The envoy then read out the edict of the Empress Dowager Guo, abolishing Cao Shuang as a general, and asking Cao Shuang to protect Emperor Wei back to Luoyang as a liege.

Cao Shuang listened to the messenger read out without saying a word, and drops of cold sweat welled up on his fat face.

In the past, I had to call a few cronies if I had nothing to do, but at this time, they were silent and panicked.

Even Cao Shuang's younger brothers were dejected.

There is no arrogance and arrogance of the past.

But Sima Yi's methods don't stop there.

Knowing that Cao Shuang was stationed in the south of Yishui, he immediately asked Sima Fu to send people to pay tribute, tents, food, utensils and other royal things.

Sima Yi's well-organized made Cao Shuang more and more frightened.

A day later, Shangshu Chen Tai and Shizhong Xu Yun came to persuade Cao Shuang to give up resistance and make Luoshui's oath public.

After Xu Yun became a famous family in Gaoyang, he was also one of the most prestigious celebrities in Luoyang, and he was also a close friend of Xiahou Xuan.

After Chen Tai was Chen Qun, an important minister of Cao Wei, he was a steady and capable person, and his position in the scholar clan was very important.

A celebrity and a scholar are undoubtedly reassuring Cao Shuang.

In the afternoon, Cao Shuang's closest subordinate general Yin Damu came with Jiang Ji's letter, but he was removed from the official position of the general, and the status of the marquis continued to be retained, without hurting his life.

A series of means made Cao Shuang's fighting spirit and determination slowly collapse.

Cao Shuang looked at his brothers and cronies here, but there was only fear in their eyes, and they were even more helpless than themselves.

And after they heard Sima Yi's letter and Empress Dowager Guo's edict, they all had a fluke mentality.

Only Huan Fan said bitterly: "It's obvious, what is the evil of Qing using reading!" Today, the door is down! ”

Cao Shuang sighed and was speechless.

Today's Cao Shuang is seven out of forty, and he has been messing with Deng Yang, Ding Mi, He Yan and others all the year round, and he is hollowed out by wine not only his body, but also his will.

After being happy for too long, the will has been hollowed out.

Some people can raise an army with only a hundred people, and some people can surrender with a country.

Nation and man are the same, born in sorrow and dying in peace.

Huan Fan ran and shouted, but no one spoke.

In the end, he found Cao Xi, the leader of the Central Army, and said bitterly: "The camp of the public forbidden army is close to the south of Que, and Luoyang Diannongzhi is outside the city, so he will be summoned." Today, Xuchang, but one day and one night, Xuchang's arsenal is full, enough to resist Sima Yi, the worry should be in the grain, and the seal of the big Si Nong is in my body, and the grain and grass are also worry-free! Now that the princes and the Son of Heaven are with each other, and the edict is spread to the world, who dares not to do so? ”

There is a good chance that this path will succeed.

But it is also a difficult road to take, and you need to throw your head and spill your blood.

A person walks a flat road all his life, and when he sees a rugged mountain road, he naturally has to find a way to bypass it, or he simply does not have the courage to go down.

The Cao brothers couldn't wait to bury their heads in their crotches.

Cao Shuang at least led the troops to cut down Shu, these brothers grew up in the honeypot since childhood, and under the shadow of their fathers, they have never seen wind and rain.

He didn't have the guts to face Sima Yi's blade.

At the age of sixty, it is useless to say that it is useless.

They sat from sunset till night, and from night till early morning.

In the end, he threw his sword on the ground and said to the ministers: "I know what Taifu wants, but I want to take the power of my brother, and now I will return it to him, and we will be rich men!" ”

When these words came out, Cao Shuang's whole person seemed to be ten years old, and the momentum of the general on his body suddenly disappeared.

The whole person seemed to collapse.

Things are divided into groups, people are gathered by like, and those who can get close to Cao Shuang are basically the same kind.

And Du Shu, Sun Li, Lu Zhi, Huan Fan and others were alienated by him, not for no reason.

The people around him also breathed a sigh of relief.

Yang Zong, the chief bookkeeper, persuaded: "The general holds the Son of Heaven and holds the power of the army, do you want to give up these and be dragged to Dongshi to be beheaded?" ”

Since Cao Shuang has decided, he will not change it, and he ordered: "Stand down." ”

Huan Fan was dumbfounded, and cried: "Cao Zidan is also a beautiful woman, give birth to your brother, calf ear!" Fat slave! Cao Zidan is a good person, Shengqing has five or six heads of meat, and Fan Suier is now extinguished! ”

He is not only angry with Cao Shuang, but also mourns his own misfortune.

And everything that happened fell into the eyes of Zhong Hui.

A contemptuous smile unconsciously hung on the corner of Zhong Hui's mouth.

On the sixth day of the first month, Cao Shuang sacrificed to the mausoleum, on the seventh day of the first month, Sima Yi raised troops, on the eighth day of the first month, Cao Shuang surrendered, and returned to Luoyang on the ninth day of the first month.

On the tenth day of the first lunar month, it was found that Cao Shuang and Huangmen Zhang Dang conspired to usurp the throne, Cao Shuang's cronies and henchmen and brothers, all beheaded, Cao, Ding, Deng, Huan, Li, Bi, He, and Zhang Ju were wiped out, and more than 7,000 people were killed.

Luoyang is full of blood.

The younger generation such as Wang Hun, Wang Shen, Wang Ye, and Xin Chang, who were subordinate officials under Cao Shuang, were not affected in any way.

Only five days before and after, the change in Gaopingling has already settled.

It's lightning fast, but that's it.

Since then, the power has been vested in the Sima clan.

Taiwei Jiang Ji and Shangshu Chen Tai fell ill one after another.

Jiang Ji was ashamed and angry, and died in the tenth month, and Sima Yi added Wang Ling as a lieutenant to appease Huainan.

He also personally wrote a letter to ask Wang Chang, the governor of Jingyu, about the gains and losses of state affairs, and Wang Chang was very cooperative with five insignificant suggestions.

Advice is not important, this cooperative attitude is important.

Sima Yi understood and praised him in the court.

Then his gaze turned to Yongliang.

In Chang'an, Xiahou Xuan sat quietly in the hall.

A look of pain on his face.

On the fifth day after the Gaopingling Incident, the envoys of Luoyang arrived in the wind and snow.

The edict was clear and clear, and Xiahou Xuan and Xiahou Ba were transferred to Luoyang.

"General Wei implores the governor to stay in Chang'an to watch what happens!" The messenger sent by Xiahou Ba said.

The arrival of this day, Xiahou Xuan had expected it, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly and so suddenly.

"Go back and tell your general, the imperial court edict, you must obey." Xiahou Xuan has made up his mind.

Among them, there is still some luck in my heart, although Cao Shuang has gone, but the country of Dawei is still there.

Perhaps the court needed him to support it.

Just thinking of Sima Shi, he was clouded with another layer of haze in his heart.

In the early years, Xiahou and Sima were quite close, and Xiahou Hui was also married to Sima Shi, so Xiahou Xuan had a good relationship with the Sima family.

However, he knows more about the Sima family.

In the second year of Qinglong, Xiahou Xuan was demoted to Yulin Supervisor by Emperor Ming, and Xiahou's family entered a low period.

And at this time, the news of Xiahou Hui's death came.

At that time, Sima Yi was fighting with Zhuge Liang in Wuzhangyuan, and his power was for a while, and he was relied on by Emperor Ming, and the Xiahou family had no choice but to give up.

"General Wei implores the governor to stay in Chang'an to watch what happens!" The messenger repeats again.

Xiahou Xuan said lightly: "Go back and tell General Wei that I will be edicted to enter the court, and let him not act rashly!" ”
