Returning to the military formation, Cao Cao immediately gave the order.
"The front army should serve as the rear army, and the rear army should act as the front army. Retreat in an orderly manner!"
The Wei army changed its formation, but Liu Chan did not pursue it.
"Your Highness, we were in the formation just now. What did Cao Cao say to His Highness?"
Guan Yinping immediately stepped forward and asked.
Others, such as Guan Yu, pretended not to care, but their slightly twitching ears gave him away.
"I didn't say anything. I just created trouble for Cao Cao."
It's a pity that Meng De was not angry to death.
If he could kill Cao Cao in front of the battle, he, Liu Gongsi, would be completely victorious in this battle.
But it is easier said than done to kill someone.
He is not a villager from Zhuge.
And Cao Mengde is not Zhou Gongjin.
It would be too difficult for a man like him who plays with people's hearts to kill him with just words.
"Aggravating the problem?"
Fei Yi was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but be curious.
"How can Your Highness create trouble for Cao Cao?"
"Three horse troughs, Wei will come..."
Liu Chan smiled softly and said, "I'm afraid Meng De won't be able to sleep tonight."
Three horse troughs.
With a suspicious person like Cao Mengde, Sima Yi would probably suffer a lot from him.
I would rather betray the world than let the world betray me.
Cao's thief's temperament is that he would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go.
Danger!
Sima Yi is in danger!
Naturally, Liu Chan did not have a good impression of Sima Yi, who later usurped the Wei Dynasty.
Forget it if your Sima family usurps the throne, at least you can make a name for yourself, right?
The Five Chaos rioted in China, and the Han people shed blood.
The north was turned into a white ground, and the Northern Dynasties were basically filled with foreigners.
In the past, the Han Dynasty was the five barbarians, and the Gongsun family in Liaodong could beat the foreigners violently.
When I get to you, start a rebellion of eight kings and just go south in clothes.
It’s so shameless!
If you can die, then die early.
Don't come here to cause harm to others.
Besides...
The Sima family can be considered a family of nobles, and Cao Cao killed his entire family on unfounded charges.
hehe.
In the hearts of the aristocratic family, I am afraid that they will gradually become alienated from Cao Cao.
In fact, there have long been clues that the aristocratic family and Cao Cao went against each other.
This can be seen from the incident of Xun Yu.
In terms of strategy, Xun Yu planned and formulated a blueprint and military route for Cao Cao to unify the north, and revised Cao Cao's strategic policy many times.
In terms of tactics, he saved the three cities of Yanzhou in the face of Lu Bu's rebellion, made a clever plan to intercept Yuan Shao in Guandu, escaped from Wan, and marched lightly to cover up his surprise attack on Jingzhou. In terms of politics, he recommended Zhong Yao and Xun You to Cao Cao. , Chen Qun, Du Xi, Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia and many other talents.
Therefore, Xun Yu was called "my son's wife" by Cao Cao.
But even Xun Yu was given an empty food box by Cao Cao.
There is no fruit in the box, please pick it yourself.
If there is no fruit in the box, please make your own decision.
Of course, the disagreement between the two people may be the most direct reason.
After Cao Cao failed to conquer Chibi, his main goal changed from unifying the world to usurping the Han Dynasty to establish itself. However, Xun Yu's ideal was to assist a hero like Cao Cao to calm down the country and allow the Han Dynasty to continue.
But the deeper reason is to suppress the nobles!
The gentry had too much influence in the court, and Xun Yu had too much say among them.
Therefore, I have to kill him!
The killing of Xun Yu made the nobles quite dissatisfied. In addition, many of the people implicated in Xu Du's rebellion were innocent and were also killed by Cao Cao.
The title of King of Indiscriminate Killing will be pinned on Cao Cao.
Killing Sima Yi again for no reason...
hehe.
I am afraid that in Wei State, the gentry and the Cao family will become even more alienated.
It is because of your disloyalty that my loyal minister Liu Gongsi has the opportunity to take action!
kill!
Kill that Sima Yi quickly!
...
After running all the way, the Wei army has returned to the Wei army camp outside Ye County.
In the main tent of the Chinese army, General Cao Cao explained the follow-up matters, then held his head with one hand and pressed his temples with his index finger and thumb.
"Go down, Wen He and Zhongda stay."
Sima Yi was stunned for a moment, frowning slightly, he lowered his head and stayed in the big tent obediently.
Jia Xu also stood in the tent. After all the ministers and generals in the tent had left, he stepped forward and asked, "I wonder if your Majesty has left us behind. Do you have any orders?"
Order?
Cao Cao took a deep look at Sima Yi and made Sima Yi lower his head.
Not good!
Very bad!
Sima Yi felt a warning sign in his heart.
Have I offended King Wei again?
impossible!
Although I was defeated by Xu Huang in the previous battle, this time I pretended to surrender, which was already a meritorious service.
What went wrong?
Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger.
Sima Yi's eyes turned wildly, and the thoughts in his mind were running even faster.
"Three horse troughs, does Wen He have a solution?"
Three horse troughs?
Jia Xu frowned. He turned to look at Sima Yi, who had his head lowered, and then looked at Cao Cao, who had a gloomy look on his face. He didn't know what his king was thinking.
It must be Mr. Liu who said something to the king in front of the battle, which irritated the king.
"Three horse troughs, that means three generations of Ma Teng and Ma Chao's family have been eliminated by the king. Even if Ma Chao is in Xichuan, he can't cause any trouble. Don't worry about it, the king."
"It's just...are these three horses really Ma Teng and Ma Chao's family?"
Cao Cao's eyes were fixed on Sima Yi.
"Zhongda, what are you talking about?"
coming!
Sima Yi's eyes flickered. In the short period of time, he thought about all the causes and consequences of this matter.
Except for sending troops with Xu Huang, he has not done anything wrong, let alone offended King Wei!
It's Mr. Liu!
It must be Liu Gongsi, the crown prince of Hanzhong, who said something in the king's ears that made the king feel resentful.
A dying man, before he dies, he still wants to drag me, Sima Yi, into the water?
Is this good?
This is not good!
Thump~
Sima Yi knelt on his knees and saluted Cao Cao.
"Three-horse trough, although my subordinate's surname is Sima, he is definitely not Sanma."
Cao Cao stared coldly at Sima Yi who was kneeling on the ground and said, "How do you prove yourself?"
Sweat was dripping from Sima Yi's forehead, and his voice began to tremble.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
"I am willing to serve as an official, but I will not serve in an official position in the future, nor will I be in charge of military affairs. I hope that the king will learn from this."
hehe.
Cao Cao sneered and said, "You want to become an official? Why? Are you forced to do so?"
"Get up."
Cao Cao asked Sima Yi to come, naturally he wanted to give Sima Yi a try, but when he saw how embarrassed he was, he couldn't help but feel contempt in his heart.
"Yes Yes."
Sima Yi tried to get up from the ground, but he fell to the ground and got up tremblingly.
"What is the taste?"
Cao Cao frowned and suddenly smelled a foul smell.
Sima Yi had a look of urgency on his face.
"I would like to report to your Majesty, your Majesty. Your Majesty, I have behaved inappropriately in front of the King. Please punish me!"
With that said, Sima Yi knelt down again.
Was he scared to the point of being scared to the point of peeing?
"Hahaha~"
Cao Cao laughed loudly and said, "Get up, I'm just scaring you."
Three horse troughs.
Then Jin Ma Chao is still possible, what does this little Sima Yi mean?
Sima Bada?
It's just blown out.
What was the result of appointing him to fight with Xu Huang?
He was beaten to a pulp by that Mr. Liu, and his own life was almost in danger.
Now when I am scared in the tent, I urinate.
If this horse can eat my cao!
That's a joke!
Sima Yi stood up in a hurry, and his clothes and pants were stained with smelly urine.
"Just get down."
"Your Majesty, please retire."
Sima Yi was relieved. He bowed to Cao Cao and slowly retreated.
After taking a few steps back, Sima Yi turned around and walked towards the outside of the tent, letting out a heavy breath in his heart.
Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger.
Sima Yi now has a profound experience of these five words.
"Sima Yi!"
When Sima Yi was most relaxed, Cao Cao roared angrily in the tent.
Sima Yi looked horrified and turned to look at Cao Cao.
At this moment, Cao Cao stretched his neck and squinted his eyes, looking at Sima Yi's expression.
King Wei is observing me?
Could it be that you saw my plan?
My life is at an end!
At this moment, the look of panic on Sima Yi's face could not be concealed.
He quickly knelt down on the ground with his butt raised high.
"I wonder what your Majesty's orders are?"
It really is like an eagle looking at a wolf.
Cao Cao waved his hand and said, "Nothing, just go down."
nothing?
What did you call me for if you have nothing to do?
Sima Yi was really scared to death just now.
He stood up shakily, his feet a little weak.
"Your Majesty, please retire."
He was facing Cao Cao and slowly backed away until his back was almost to the tent door, then he turned and left.
Jia Xu's eyes flickered. He looked at Cao Cao and asked, "By scaring Sima Zhongda like this, did you just listen to Liu Gong's words about the three horses in the trough?"
"good."
Cao Cao didn't deny it either.
"When I heard what he said in front of the battle, Gu Gu felt angry. When he thought that there were horses in the army, he wanted to find and kill him. However, after meeting Sima Zhongda just now, he gave up the idea of killing."
He, Cao Cao, was suspicious and cruel.
But he is not stupid!
This is obviously Liu Gongsi's plan to drive away wolves and swallow tigers.
How can I fall into the trap?
"Then Liu Gongsi is really insidious. He wants to sow discord between our monarch and his ministers. If he kills Sima Zhongda without any reason, he is afraid that everyone in the army will be frightened. If the people are not united, our Wei country will be uneasy. That is Liu The best time for the public heir to usurp the throne."
certainly...
It was only because he saw Sima Yi being so miserable that Cao Cao calmed down his murderous intention.
Kill this kind of person?
Aren’t you going to dirty my, Cao Mengde’s hands?
He doesn't kill trash!
"Your Majesty, your Majesty, this is indeed a vicious plan of the Crown Prince Liu Gongsi of Hanzhong, in order to drive a wedge between the monarch and his ministers, and even to break the hearts of the scholars of Wei State, but..."
but?
Cao Cao frowned slightly and asked, "But what?"
"But that Sima Zhongda is definitely not so unbearable. Although Sima Bada is not as bad as the rumors, he is not so unbearable. He became incontinent on the spot after being said by the king? Although the king has the power of the king, but I am not as good as Zhongda. With his understanding, he will not be like this."
Pretending?
Cao Cao's eyes narrowed slightly, murderous intent emitted from his eyes unconsciously.
"You mean, this is all faked by Sima Yi?"
Lied to me?
Where did he get the courage?
"It is precisely because Sima Zhongda wants to pretend to deceive the king that he is not worthy of the king's attention."
"Oh? How do you say this?"
Jia Xu stroked his white beard and said slowly: "I am here, and if he behaves like this, doesn't it mean he doesn't take me seriously? Pretending to be mediocre and deceiving the king is just a little clever. If he is really smart, he should be He wanted to act as if nothing had happened. This time he lost his manners in front of the king, and was even frightened into incontinence by the king. If this news spreads, he will be infamous, and there will be no hope for scholars. How can he be an official? Even if he is an official, how can he succeed? Minister of Pillars? In charge of military affairs?"
When Jia Xu said this, Cao Cao also nodded.
"That makes sense."
but...
Then Sima Yi dared to lie to him?
Death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be escaped!
How can you relieve my anger if I don't make it miserable?
...
From the large tent of the Chinese army, he walked all the way into Sima Yi's own small tent in the army.
"Second brother."
Sima Fu saluted Sima Yi, but soon his brows furrowed.
"Why does my brother smell so fishy?"
Sima Yi took off his clothes, sighed and said, "It smells like urine."
Urine smell?
Sima Fu saw that Sima Yi had dragged him down to his single clothes, and the trousers of his clothes were also wet. It was obvious that he had been splashed with urine, or that he had fallen into a urine pond.
Is this incontinence?
"Brother, this..."
Sima Yi waved his hand and said: "The Crown Prince Liu Gongsi of Hanzhong is really hateful. In front of the two armies, by coincidence, he actually brought up the matter of the three horse troughs!"
Have I, Sima Yi, ever offended you?
Liu Gongsi?
You've gone too far!
"Three horse troughs?"
Sima Fu's expression changed greatly.
"Is this why your Majesty keeps you here?"
At this moment, his face turned pale. When he thought of the moody Wei King Cao Cao, he was shocked, and goosebumps rushed from his feet to his forehead.
"Then the king..."
"Aren't I back in one piece now?"
Sima Yi briefly talked to Sima Fu about what happened in the Chinese army's tent.
After hearing this, the look of panic on the latter's face did not dissipate.
"It's really dangerous. My brother's life was almost lost. He behaved disrespectfully before the king. I have looked after my brother for many years. It's a pity, a pity, but..."
He looked at Sima Yi with some worry and said: "Even if my brother is like this, will the King of Wei believe it? Moreover, there was Jia Wenhe in the tent at that time. He knew his brother quite well. What if he was in Wei?" If you find out about your brother in front of the king, it will be even more dangerous."
"Jia Gong will definitely speak his mind."
Sima Yi was very calm.
You think I am on the first floor, but actually I am on the fifth floor.
"Then why brother?"
"Pretending to be stupid, King Wei has discovered it. At most, he is angry, so he will not be killed. If he remains calm and composed, given King Wei's temperament, he may not be able to get out of the main tent of the Chinese army."
I have been looking forward to it for many years, but it disappeared in one day.
Now, the King of Wei is not dead, no matter how much he raises, what's the use?
It will only lead to death.
He invested in the Crown Prince of Wei early. A hundred years later, as long as the Crown Prince of Wei Cao Pi is willing to use him, Sima Yi will be able to show off his talents.
At that time, if Cao Pi is convinced with his true ability, he can be appointed as a high official!
But now is the time to hibernate and cultivate one's moral character.
"The Crown Prince Liu Gongsi of Hanzhong is a formidable enemy. To deal with him, we have to think of some ways."
He, Sima Yi, was not a gentleman.
Since you have hurt me, don't blame me, Sima Yi, for wanting to take revenge!
certainly...
How to take revenge, Sima Yi was still thinking about it.
It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge after ten years!
You and I will wait and see!
...
"Ah sneeze~"
In Duyang City, Liu Chan was holding a scroll in his hand, but he suddenly started sneezing.
Who is talking bad about me?
He put down the book in his hand and narrowed his eyes slightly while enjoying Guan Yinping's attentive service.
Now that the war has ceased, what is the most important thing to do next?
