So someone asked a soothsayer to inquire about the situation and said: "Having a shape but no entity, and having a mouth but no sound are signs that the country is about to perish. So now that there is a shape, if these three appear at the same time, it is an ominous sign. The lord should avoid danger, look for good fortune, and not act rashly." Gongsun Yuan was very angry after hearing this, and said angrily: "A common man is talking nonsense!" So he ordered the soothsayer, Lun Zhi, Jia Fan and others to be beheaded in the market. Then he sent General Bei Yan as the marshal and Yang Zuo as the vanguard. He mobilized a total of 150,000 Liao soldiers to fight towards the Central Plains.
The border official reported to Cao Rui. Cao Rui was very surprised. He originally wanted to continue to be the handsome emperor, but he immediately lost his mind and summoned Sima Yi into the court for discussion.
It is said that after Kong Ming was plotted by evil forces, he died in Wuzhangyuan. Yu Yi did not launch an invasion of Jingzhou for several years. This made Sima Yi's power in Wei gradually increase, but the evil forces still looked aloof. Sima Yi's appearance Respectful, but actually had other thoughts in their hearts. The two seemed to be inseparable. When the envoy sent by Cao Rui arrived, the two were discussing how to advance in two directions. Sima Yi came to acquire the land of Xishu, while the evil force destroyed the rest of the fairy world. Immortal.
After the envoy left, Sima Yi paid his respects and said: "It seems that we have to let things go in Western Shu. We must first eliminate Liaodong."
The evil force was a little unhappy after hearing this, and said: "Yu Yi is our biggest enemy, we should destroy him first!"
Sima Yi nodded and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, you are right. However, the Emperor of Wei is Cao Rui. If we allow Liaodong soldiers and horses to invade the Central Plains, we will be attacked from both sides!"
The evil force is not clear, but all the power in his hands is used to mess up the generals, and there is no other way to control Sima Yi. There is no way at the moment, and what Sima Yi said makes sense, so he can only let him make his own arrangements.
Soon, under the leadership of the envoy, Sima Yi came to Cao Rui and said: "I have 40,000 horse infantry officers and soldiers, and I can defeat Gongsun Yuan's rebellion."
Cao Rui felt very relieved after hearing this, but he also knew that Sima Yi was bragging. You must know that the other party claimed to have an army of 150,000, but only 40,000 soldiers and horses were not enough. Then he said: "You have a small number of soldiers and horses, and you still have such a long distance to go. I'm afraid it will be difficult to resist."
Sima Yi smiled and said: "There are not many soldiers. Only those who can use them well are wise. Thanks to your majesty's great blessing, I will definitely capture Gongsun Yuan alive and present it to your majesty."
Cao Rui said: "What do you think Gongsun Yuan will do?"
He replied: "If he can abandon the city and leave, it is the best strategy. If he guards Liaodong to resist us, it is a trap. If he just stays in Xiangping and does not come out, it is a trap. Then he will definitely be captured by me."
Cao Rui said: "Liaodong is very far away. How long will it take you to go and back?"
He replied: "The journey is four thousand miles in total. It takes one hundred days to go, one hundred days to come back, and sixty days of rest in between. Calculating this, I'm afraid it will take a year."
Cao Rui thought for a moment and said, "It's great that you can put down the rebellion yourself, but what should we do if Wu and Wei take the opportunity to send troops?"
He replied: "I have also thought about this matter. I have already decided on a guard policy. Please don't worry, Your Majesty."
Cao Rui was very happy after hearing this, and immediately appointed Sima Yi as his commander-in-chief, and led his troops to expedition to Gongsun Yuan.
In Jingzhou, Yu Yi also lived a fairy-like life. The women he married around him were all getting old slowly, and he was not idle either. The ministers donated beauties from Xishu and Jingzhou, and Yu Yi was also very happy. After Kong Ming passed away, Yu Yi felt very helpless. Later, he felt very depressed. He thought that unifying the Central Plains and saving the world were too far away. After all, he was an ordinary person. Even his good friend Kong Ming could not save him. What can be done.
As for Western Shu, it basically formed a situation of governance from both sides. Yu Yi named Liu Chan the King of Western Shu in accordance with Kong Ming's request before his death. Therefore, Liu Chan was in charge of the Chengdu side, and he also sent some old officials. As for Jingzhou, it established schools and developed according to its own four modernization routes. After a few years, the development gap between the two sides became larger. Jingzhou under Yuyi's management was also obviously wealthy.
One day, Huang Shumin went to Yuyi to report the situation. She analyzed that there was no threat from Soochow, and the main problem was still in the Central Plains. If they could cross the Han River, find a stronghold, and then use the advantages of the rear to move in three directions. If the Central Plains marches, the situation will change.
Yu Yi looked at Huang Shumin. She analyzed the military situation very seriously. Then she looked at Xiaoli beside her. As her early concubine, her hair had turned gray. Even if she maintained the habit of exercising for a long time, it was difficult to hide her old age. As for Yu Yi I just feel like a middle-aged person, and my children are slowly growing up and starting to be active in their respective fields.
Yu Yi did not express his position on this matter. He had not yet gotten over the Kong Ming incident. This time Huang Shumin did not persuade, but forcibly pulled Yu Yi towards the graves of Lei Chunze and others.
Seeing Huang Shumin's rudeness, a nearby minister was furious and said, "Are you planning to rebel if you dare to hold His Majesty hostage?"
Yu Yi just waved his hand and signaled everyone to leave it alone. Soon he came to the graves of Lei Chunze, Ye Huatong, Wu Chenggong and others. Ye Huatong and Wu Chenggong died earlier. They were in Mai at that time. The city, in order to fall behind, allowed Guan Yu to escape. The two of them died in battle, but Lei Chunze was killed by the female corpse king and buried together. Yu Yi was very familiar with this place because he often came alone. , to complain and relieve the pressure.
After the three of them arrived at their destination, Huang Shumin suddenly burst into tears, pointed at Lei Chunze's tombstone and said, "Come and see, is this still the high-spirited Yu Yi we knew back then?"
After Yu Yi became emperor, he has been living among the stars. He has not heard anyone call him by his name for a long time. However, Huang Shumin said this and he was not angry because they had known each other for too long.
Seeing that Yu Yi was unmoved, Huang Shumin continued: "Kong Ming has just passed away, and there are not many of us who came out of Daoxiang Village. However, there is no plot in the Central Plains, and the country is not stable. Is Your Majesty afraid of something, or has he given up long ago?" I have fulfilled my long-cherished wish back then and just want to be the stable emperor."
Yu Yi looked serious and replied: "Of course not. In the past few years, we have been fighting everywhere, and now there are not many old friends left. I hope to maintain this peaceful state so that everyone can be safer."
After hearing this, Xiaoli walked up to Yuyi, pointed at the white hair on her head, and said: "Now that we are old, even if we don't go to war, we won't live long, and we will be buried here in the future, but Your Majesty Have we forgotten our original intention of coming out of Daoxiang Village?"
