Chapter 365 Taking advantage of the situation

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 If this thing succeeds, it will be remembered in history. If it fails.

Haha...it will definitely be shattered to pieces.

Of course the old eunuch knows this.

"Your Majesty, don't worry!" the old eunuch said with certainty: "I have served the late emperor for many years, and I know very well that in this palace, those people are trustworthy and those are not."

"Okay!" Cao Fang nodded, and suddenly looked at the old slave in front of him,

I sincerely admired him, now everyone's heart goes to Sima, but he is willing to be loyal to the Cao family.

Cao Fang conspired with the old eunuch to kill Sima Yi, but Sima Yi was kept in the dark at this time. He didn't know that Cao Fang was thinking about killing him. He came out of the palace.

He returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion soon.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion.

General Sima Zhao, imperial censor Sima Shi, and more than ten important officials of the imperial court,

They have been waiting for Sima Yi here for a long time.

In their view,

There is no need for the Prime Minister to go to the palace now to ask the Emperor what he wants.

However, Sima Yi just wants to go through this formality.

"Prime Minister!"

The ministers saluted Sima Yi, but Sima Zhao said angrily: "Father, this is unnecessary. If father wants to conquer Wu, he can just give the order. Why do you have to ask the little emperor what he wants?"<

/p>

"Presumptuous!" Sima Yi scolded: "Although my father is now the prime minister, going on an expedition is a national event. How can I make my own decisions?"

Sima Zhao immediately shut up when he heard the sound.

Sima Yi sat back in his seat and said calmly: "The emperor has agreed and authorized the Prime Minister to immediately launch an army to attack Wu."

"I obey the order!"

The ministers also saluted in the direction of the palace in a decent manner.

"This attack on Wu is different from the past..." Sima Yi looked at the crowd and said: "Now Soochow and Western Shu are fighting, and we, the Wei Dynasty, just took this opportunity to recapture Hefei..." As he said that, he paused.

, pointed to the map and said: "The main purpose of this attack on Wu,"

We just want to take back Hefei first."

Sima Yi saw clearly that the pattern of the Three Kingdoms would definitely change in the future. The Wei Dynasty was now adjacent to the Han Dynasty on two sides and facing Soochow on the other. Soochow occupied Hefei ten years ago, which was a potential hidden danger for the Wei Dynasty.

.

He doesn't care who wins or loses in this Han-Wu war. What he cares more about is the safety of Wei.

Now, the Wei is still unable to deal with the Han, but Hefei is the throat of the Jianghuai River. Whether it is Soochow or the Han, they can go north through the waterway. If Hefei is not in the hands of the Wei, the Wei will suffer disaster in the future.<

/p>

Now is a good opportunity. The fierce battle between Han and Wu is in full swing. Neither of them can spare any time to deal with Wei, especially Soochow.

Its main forces are now all on the southern battlefield.

"Xu Shizhong!" Sima Yi looked at Xu Yun and said, "In this southern expedition, we have to go to Wuchang for Shizong." Shizong is Xu Yun's name.

Xu Yun was stunned for a moment, a little puzzled, thinking to himself, wouldn't he be going south to conquer Wu soon?

Why are you sending me to Wuchang now?

Are you going to die?

"Go and negotiate with Sun Quan!" Sima Yi said calmly: "Go and tell Sun Quan that if we, the Wei Dynasty, want to send troops to attack the Han, Soochow must immediately return Hefei and nearby counties. Otherwise, we, the Wei Dynasty, will send troops to attack Hefei, and then march south until Wuchang."

"Prime Minister?" Xu Yun was a little frightened.

This is not negotiating, this is just going to die, okay?

"Don't worry, Shizong..." Sima Yi said with a smile: "Now Sun Quan's biggest enemy is Xi Shu. He definitely dare not embarrass the public. Compared with the gain and loss of Hefei, what Sun Quan should consider most now is whether Soochow can still survive." Save or not."

After saying that, Sima Yi looked at Sima Zhao and said: "You will immediately raise one hundred thousand troops and go to Hefei New City. You must make a big fanfare along the way to let everyone know that my army, the King of Wei, is going to attack Hefei."

"Promise!" Sima Zhao immediately agreed.

Xu Yun, who had been a little worried before, seemed to understand what Sima Yi meant.

Half a month later.

Wuchang Imperial Palace.

"Your Majesty!" Xu Yunyun said calmly: "I, the Prime Minister of Wei, have decided to assist the State of Wu in attacking Western Shu, but the return of the State of Wu to Hefei is a prerequisite."

Sun Quan seemed calm on the surface, but his heart was in turmoil.

Sima Fu, you are trying to take advantage of the situation.

Sun Quan actually already knew that long before Xu Yun arrived in Wuchang, he had received news that Cao Wei's general Sima Zhao personally led 100,000 infantry and cavalry into Hefei.

Calculating the time, they should reach Hefei in just a few days.

What now?

Sun Quan’s head is full of problems.

The Han army attacked Wu in four directions. Although it was blocked by several troops and horses, the Han army had no intention of retreating. Moreover, it seemed that the Han army wanted to destroy Wu this time.

But at this time, Cao Wei came to take advantage of the situation.

Damn——

Sun Quan was so angry that he cursed secretly, but he had to be kind. Although he hated Xu Yun, a native of Wei in the hall, he still had to smile.

"Mr. Shizong!" Sun Quan sighed and said, "Hefei belongs to our Wuzhou County. How can we use the word "return"?

"Your Majesty is joking!" Xu Yun said with a smile: "Hefei was originally the county of Weizhou. His Majesty took advantage of Weizhou's unpreparedness and plundered it ten years ago."

Sun Quan was speechless immediately. If he were not fighting the Han army now, he would have had ten thousand ways to angrily angrily Xu Yun, but at this moment he could not do it because he still had to beg Cao Wei.

"Let's do this, Mr. Shizong!" Sun Quan sighed again and said: "If your country really helps me fight against the Han, please send troops to attack the Han first. When the war is calmed down, I will transfer Hefei to the Wei Dynasty."



"Besides, Wu is currently at war with the Han army. It is really difficult for me to spare time to deal with the affairs of Hefei." Sun Quan deliberately delayed, thinking of letting Cao Wei send troops to attack the Han first. As for whether Hefei should be returned to the Han after the war, we will decide at that time.

.

However, Xu Yun waved his hand and said: "Your Majesty, you must have heard about it. I, General Wei, have led an army of 100,000 people straight to Hefei at this moment. If your Majesty does not agree to return Hefei, I will

Wei will capture it himself."

Before Sun Quan could respond, Xu Yun continued: "If Hefei is taken back by force from our Wei army, then our Wei cavalry will come across the river next."

Hiss——

The entire hall suddenly fell silent.

Xu Yun's words couldn't be more clear. He is not here to discuss with Soochow. He is more like giving an order. Either Soochow will take the initiative to return Hefei, or Cao Wei will not only take back Hefei, but also launch an army to attack it like the Han army.

Wu.

Damn——

Sun Quan's curses reached his lips, but he still swallowed them back.

Because even if you kill Xu Yun, it will not help Soochow at all. On the contrary, it may bring disaster to Wu.

"Your envoy, please go back to the post to rest first!" Sun Quan's face darkened, and he stood up from the throne and said casually: "Let me discuss this matter with the ministers before making a decision."

"That's fine!" Xu Yun was not in a hurry and said with a smile: "Anyway, I, the Wei Dynasty, are not in a hurry now. Your Majesty... Your Majesty doesn't have much time." As he said that, he slightly raised his hand to Sun Quan as a gesture of approval.

He saluted and then walked away.
