The New Year is approaching, but Cao Cao has always felt restless recently, his right eyelid is beating hard, and he is becoming more and more cautious.

When he was depressed, Yang Xiu rushed back from Lujiang and brought Sun Yu's handwritten letter, together with the letter of Lujiang Taishouyin, willing to surrender Cao to avenge Sun Quan.

Cao Cao read the book and laughed: "The left road of the side door is really not credible, and a small omen is a little messy of my heart!" ”

Yang Xiu was puzzled: "Why did the prime minister say this?" ”

Cao Cao said with a smile: "I discussed with Zuo Ci before, and I once said that my left eye jumped for wealth, and my right eye jumped for disaster. My right eyelid is always beating today, and I am worried that there is a bad omen, and I don't want Dezu to achieve such a great achievement. ”

Yang Xiu smiled and said: "Prime Minister Yingrui is a martial artist and has excellent intelligence, how can he believe in these sideways?" ”

"What Dezu said is extremely true!" Cao Cao nodded slightly, and ordered the generals to come to discuss the matter.

Sima Yi said: "Sun Yu has always been uncertain, and now he is suddenly offering a seal, could it be that there is fraud in it?" ”

Yang Xiu was furious when he heard this: "Sima Zhongda, do you think you are deceitful? This goes to Lujiang, I will wait for nine deaths and a lifetime, and I will try my best to make peace and no success? ”

Sima Yi frowned and said: "I don't doubt Mr. Gong's work, I am afraid that Sun Yu will deceive, if the yang is against the yin, there is another trick." ”

Yang Xiu sneered: "When Sun Yu saw Sun Quan's blood book, although he was hesitating, he was already dissatisfied with Liu Qi. Recently, Sun Wei was executed, Sun Jing died of anger, Sun Yu raised troops in anger, decided to give up Lujiang, wanted to go home to mourn, secretly rescued Sun Quan, echoed with the prime minister in the north and south, and destroyed Liu Qi together, how can it be fake? ”

Cao Cao stroked his beard and smiled: "Sun Yu's new loss of his father and brother is all because of Liu Qi, this is a major human matter, revenge is a matter of course, and there is fraud in An?" Zhong Da was too worried. ”

Sima Yi silently retreated when he heard this, lowered his head and thought secretly, although Sun Yu's move seemed reasonable, he smelled a smell of conspiracy.

Cao Hong hurriedly said: "Since Sun Yu wants to surrender and is ready to give up the Lujiang River, he should immediately send someone to take over the men and horses, rescue Sun Fu, and take advantage of Liu Qi's containment in Huainan to break Jiangdong in one fell swoop." ”

Cao Cao was about to give an order, when he looked up and caught a glimpse of Sima Yi, who was bowing his head and silent, he suddenly had doubts in his heart and asked, "Who can Zhong Dayi do this?" ”

Sima Yi said: "Sun Yu's intention is subtle, and the truth of Lujiang is unknown, so you can't believe what the book says. If the prime minister sends troops, he needs to be more careful, and those who are not wise and brave will not be competent. ”

Cao Cao twisted his beard and said: "Sun Yu has a letter, if he doesn't take the Lujiang River, he will miss the opportunity, and I am afraid that there is no hope for the south of the Yangtze River!" ”

Sima Yi offered advice: "You can use a false way to cut down the plan: when the people and horses arrive at Lujiang, Sun Yu will come out to greet him, no matter what his intentions are, he can't help but say that he will take it down first and take over the city defense." If it really has the intention of surrendering, it is not too late to set up a banquet to make amends. ”

"That's a great plan!" Cao Cao was overjoyed, looking around, but his smile gradually disappeared.

After turning his eyes twice, he couldn't find a competent general, and he couldn't help but feel disappointed in his heart, if Zhang He, Yu Ban and others were there, why not?

Cao Hong asked: "Prime Minister, the last general is willing to go." ”

"Zi Lian is strong!" Cao Cao nodded and said: "Allocate 20,000 elite soldiers for you, and 500 tigers and leopards to ride to Lujiang, remember to adapt to the situation, and take self-protection first." ”

Cao Hong hugged his fists and said: "Prime Minister rest assured, there is no general in Lujiang, and a certain person is like probing for things!" ”

Cao Cao ordered people to prepare gold beads to reward Sun Yu, named him the general of Zhendong and the marquis of Qiantang, and ordered Cao Hong to lead his troops to march forward in the starry night and take over Lujiang as soon as possible.

Everyone dispersed, and Cao Ren admonished: "The situation in Lujiang is complicated, Zilian is irritable, if you are a little careless, I am afraid that you will make a mistake." ”

Cao Cao sighed helplessly: "I look at the left and right, and the only one who can be this person is filial piety, but the heavy responsibilities of Xuzhou are all in your body, and you have to leave the Chinese army lightly?" ”

Cao Renyan said: "Wang Ji is guarding the key road between the stones, and he can increase his troops by 3,000, and agree with Zilian to respond to the signal, just in case." ”

Cao Cao also knew that Cao Hongzhi was slightly insufficient, so he nodded and said, "Just arrange this matter by yourself." ”

was discussing the military situation, and suddenly probed the Malay report, Cao Xiu and Liu Qi made an appointment to fight, and they were going to fight a decisive battle at the mouth of the Huai River.

Cao Cao thought for a while, suddenly thought about it, and sent someone to send Sima Yi to him, saying: "It was rumored that Huang Gai and Liu Qi were at odds before, and I don't know whether it's true or not. ”

Sima Yi hugged his fists and said, "I want to hear about it." ”

Cao Cao said: "The generals of Jiangdong have the intention to fight, but they were arranged by Liu Qi to guard Shouchun, so they disagreed, and they must be dissatisfied at this time." Now Liu Qi and Wen Lie are about to fight a decisive battle, I took the excuse to go to watch the battle, if Huang Gai and others really sent troops, it would be discord, Zhongda design was defeated, and Jiangdong would be in chaos! ”

Sima Yi suddenly understood, and said with a smile: "If Huang Gai is defeated, Liu Qi will be angry, this person is an old minister of Jiangdong, if the Jiangdong generals are not punished, Liu Qi's prestige will be greatly lost, and he will no longer be able to command the army." ”

"Those who know me, Zhong Daya!" Cao Cao twisted his beard and smiled, but sighed in his heart.

Sima Yi's wisdom is no less than Guo Jia and Xun Yu, he is good at strategizing and strategy, and he has the ability to command troops, and he can be a general, but he is difficult to put his heart into this person, and even instinctively gives birth to a sense of defense, he hates this feeling very much, but he is helpless.

Signaling everyone to retreat, Cao Cao sat in front of the desk and lost his mind for a long time, looking at the empty hall, inexplicably melancholy, although he is now the king of Wei, it is difficult to have friends who drank and talked happily back then.

Cao Ren took Sima Yi to the camp to arrange military affairs, and when he saw that he had a sad face and was unwilling, he asked: "Zhongda don't worry, I have increased my troops to Shiting, and ordered Wang Ji to pay attention to the movements of Lujiang at any time, but it can be safe." ”

Sima Yi shook his head and said: "If it's not for this, the one I'm worried about is Hanoi!" Ma Chao led the people of Xiliang out of the customs to take revenge, these are all tigers and wolves, once they cross the river to the north, the consequences are unimaginable. ”

In the first battle of Chang'an, although Sima Yi was famous, he was ruthless at a young age, which caused many people to accuse, and now that the Xiliang Army is in Luoyang, how can Sima Yi rest assured?

Cao Ren comforted: "Zhongda but relax, Ma Chao is just a reckless man, more than brave, but not enough wise, and the Xiliang cavalry is not accustomed to water warfare, there is Xu Gongming guarding the river, Ma Chao wants to cross the river, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky." ”

Sima Yi frowned and said: "Although Ma Chao is not worried, Xu Yuanzhi knows the strategy, I'm afraid it ......."

Cao Ren said with a smile: "Don't worry, Zhongda, when General Cao Hong takes the Lujiang River, the war in Huainan will take a turn. ”

Sima Yi nodded slightly, in fact, he had already secretly written to Cao Pi, asking him to move the Sima clan from Hanoi to Handan, but the old father Sima Fang had an upright temperament and was unwilling to move, and the Sima family style was extremely strict, and the other children did not dare to persuade him again.

A few days ago, Sima Fang sent a letter to his family, implying that Cao Cao was no longer the hero of Chen Liu's army, and that the current Han Zuo should not be extinct, and if he can retreat, he will retreat, and he can no longer help the abuse.

But in the battle of Chang'an, Sima Yi knew that he had no choice, and now Ma Chao was stationed in Luoyang, eyeing Hanoi, eager to take revenge and then fast, like a hungry wolf coming to the door, the knife hanging above his head, how could he be at ease?

I can't help but secretly regret that Cao Cao/bi went out by himself back then, gritted his teeth and persevered, or followed the master's advice and fled to Sima Hui in Jingzhou, I don't know what the situation is today.
