But the picture of the Dao Gold List that day is still circulating...
After Cao Cao's death, his son Cao Pi inherited the title of King of Wei.
However, he was not satisfied with this, so he forced Han Xian Emperor Liu Xiechan to replace him, become emperor on behalf of Han, and named Cao Wei!
He himself became the founding emperor of Cao Wei!
Posthumously named Cao Cao Emperor Wu of Wei!
As for Sima Yi, because of his close relationship with Cao Pi, he became an important minister of Cao Wei!
Much used by Cao Pi!
However, Cao Pi only served as emperor for six years before he drove to Hexi and passed the throne to Crown Prince Cao Rui!
Sima Yi, together with Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu, and Chen Qun, became the Tuogu Minister of the new dynasty!
Sima Yi began to take real power!
Became the coach of Cao Wei's war zone!
At that time, Prime Minister Zhuge Liang was already in charge of the Shu Han Dynasty, and he wanted to conquer Cao Wei in the north and support the Han Dynasty!
He instigated the rebellion of Cao Wei's Xincheng prefect, and Meng Da, an old general of Shu Han, acted as his internal correspondent and agreed to take action to coordinate Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition!
However, the inside story was known to Sima Yi!
On the surface, Sima Yi wrote a letter to appease Meng Da, but in fact, he led his army to the new city overnight!
Kill Mengda by surprise!
Capturing Meng Da eliminated a rebellion for Cao Wei.
Sima Yi, with his hard work and great achievements, his position in the court became more and more stable!
As Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu, and Chen Qun, the three important ministers of Tuogu, passed away one after another, Sima Yi, the veteran of three dynasties and the senior minister of Tuogu, undoubtedly became the most prestigious minister in the court!
He was appointed as the general, presided over the Yongliang front of Cao Wei, commanded the army of Cao Wei, and prepared for Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition!
Sima Yi has become the pillar of Cao Wei!
However, fully aware of the principle that when a cunning rabbit dies, a lackey will be cooked, when Sima Yi faced Zhuge Liang, he basically only defended passively and never took the initiative to fight!
Use your main energy to cultivate your own military power!
And veteran Zhang He naturally became a thorn in Sima Yi's side!
Zhang He, as one of the five good generals, has extremely high qualifications in the army, and is a die-hard loyalist to Cao Wei. Naturally, it is impossible for him to attach himself to Sima Yi!
Sima Yi quickly found an opportunity on the battlefield!
Knowing that Zhuge Liang might have an ambush, Sima Yi ordered Zhang He to pursue him!
Zhang He, who was well versed in the art of war, noticed something was wrong, and made it clear to Sima Yi that the surrounding troops must be blocked, and the enemy should not be pursued if they are poor. Zhuge Liang must have an ambush here!
But Sima Yi laughed at Zhang He's cowardice and forced Zhang He to attack!
Zhang He could only obey his order, but as expected, he was ambushed by Zhuge Liang's heavy troops on the way!
Zhang He and his generals were all killed in battle!
Sima Yi was secretly happy after hearing the news, but on the surface he was extremely sad and vowed to avenge Zhang He!
However, once Zhang He died, no one in Cao Wei's army could resist Sima Yi's authority!
From then on, Sima Yi eliminated dissidents and took charge of power alone, firmly holding the general power in his own hands!
"Sima Zhongda, how dare you do this?"
When Cao Cao in the prime minister's palace saw this scene, he became furious!
Sima Yi, you are trying to rebel!
With such a covert method, Zhang He, a veteran of Cao Wei, was killed!
This approach undoubtedly showed Sima Yi's ambition!
"Xu Chu!"
Cao Cao's eyes flashed coldly, and he summoned the leader of the Tiger Guard, Xu Chu!
"The general is here!"
Xu Chu stepped forward and bowed slightly.
"Go quickly and capture Sima Yi!"
"yes!"
Xu Chu hugged his fists and strode away immediately.
…
Tang Dynasty.
"Sima Yi, you have some ideas about Cao's empire..."
Li Shimin's eyes flickered slightly, obviously seeing something was wrong.
Sima Yi wanted to turn Cao Wei's army into his own private army!
Isn't this a sign of rebellion, what is it?
If a being who is ranked sixth on the list of saint seekers wants to rebel, that will be a big problem.
However, all the loyal ministers of the Cao family, such as Cao Zhen and Cao Xiu, were almost dead.
Who else in the Cao Wei court today can suppress Sima Yi?
Just rely on a young Cao Rui?
Cao Rui is obviously showing signs of being unable to control himself.
And soon, even Cao Rui was infected with heavy soldiers and died in front of Sima Yi!
Before he died, Cao Rui arranged for Cao Zhen's son Cao Shuang to become a general and assist the government together with the hussar general Sima Yi!
Then, he died!
"Sima Yi actually survived three generations of Cao Wei?"
Seeing that Sima Yi had become Cao Wei's Tuogu minister again, the leader of all the major dynasties in China, everyone's face showed an incredulous look.
Cao Cao, Cao Pi, Cao Rui, and now Cao Fang!
Sima Yi is so alive!
This old thief not only tortured three generations of Cao Cao to death, but also tortured the elders of Cao Cao and Cao Pi's era to death!
Now, those who serve as officials in the same dynasty as Sima Yi are basically his sons and grandsons!
After the young master Cao Fang succeeded to the throne, Cao Shuang took over the power and regarded Sima Yi as a big problem!
He respected Sima Yi as Taifu, promoted him openly and secretly, and deprived Sima Yi of his military power!
But Sima Yi pretended to be old, weak, sick and disabled, and from then on he pretended to be sick at home!
Cao Shuang was worried, so he sent his confidant Li Sheng to visit, but was fooled by Sima Yi's acting skills. He finally reported back to Cao Shuang, saying that Sima Yi was already old and confused and should not take it to heart.
Cao Shuang believed it to be true and stopped paying attention to Sima Yi from then on!
But Sima Yi has been secretly looking for opportunities, planning a fatal blow to Cao Shuang!
It happened that Brother Cao Shuang escorted Emperor Cao Fang to Gaoping Mausoleum to pay homage to his ancestors!
After Sima Yi learned about it, he immediately jumped up from the hospital bed, because he knew that this was the comeback opportunity he had been waiting for!
While Cao Shuang was not in the city, Sima Yi asked Queen Mother Guo for an edict to attack Cao Shuang, and sent troops to take control of Luoyang City!
Catch Cao Shuang and his family members in one fell swoop!
Cao Shuang, a playboy, had never seen such a battle before, and he was immediately frightened to death!
Sima Yi took the opportunity to join forces with Lieutenant Jiang Ji and swore an oath on Luoshui that as long as Cao Shuang surrendered, he would not take his life.
However, Huan Fan, a counselor under Cao Shuang, urged Cao Shuang not to compromise with Sima Yi, but to take the emperor to Yecheng and send all the troops from the world to surround and suppress Sima Yi!
"What Huan Fan said is true!"
In the Imperial Palace of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin showed approval.
I didn't expect that Cao Shuang, who had nothing to do but had nothing to do with his life, would have such a resourceful person under his command!
Cao Shuang holds the emperor and the military power of the world, and Huan Fan, the great farmer, is in charge of grain, grass and weapons. Even without Luoyang, they can still raise a large army and fight Sima Yi decisively!
Sima Yi's thousands of soldiers and horses in the city are no match for Cao Shuang!
If he had listened to what Huan Fan said, Cao Shuang could have turned defeat into victory!
But Cao Shuang dropped his weapon and sighed: "Even if you are not a general, it is not bad to be a rich man!"
He actually chose to surrender to Sima Yi!
"This Cao Shuang, the mud can't support the wall!"
Li Shimin looked helpless. Even though Huan Fan was very resourceful, Cao Shuang was a useless teammate and could not be brought along at all!
