Du Yu's defection was fatal to the Wei state. He knew everything about the Wei army's garrison along the Yellow River. If he really went to Long Fei's side, Sima Yi was very clear about the consequences. It would be a lie to say that Sima Yi was not in a hurry.
While he asked people to quickly adjust the defense along the Yellow River, he also sent people to chase Du Yu. As you can imagine, Du Yu was not found, and the defensive position along the Yellow River could not be adjusted.
Sima Yi was also quite capable, and he was able to make the Yellow River garrison obey his orders without Cao Cao's orders. Firstly, these soldiers and horses were originally trained by Sima Yi, and he was still a bit wary of his old boss. Secondly,
Sima Yi was cruel and ruthless, and he also had a group of men in black under his command. This group of people killed people without blinking an eye. One thing happened once, a captain was disobedient, and someone found him by the river early the next morning.
There was no news about Du Yu for three days, and no information about Du Yu's surrender to the enemy was found. Du Yu seemed to have disappeared from the world, and no one could find him. But Sima Yi did not dare to be careless, and in order to prevent the Dragon Army from suddenly crossing the river
, Sima Yi divided the troops and horses in his hands into three waves and built three lines of defense on the bank of the Yellow River. Of course, he also knew that these were of no help. In order to return himself to the core of Wei's politics, after taking control of the troops and horses,
, Sima Yi immediately wrote a memorial to Cao Cao.
When Cao Pi received Sima Yi's memorial, it can be said that it was another unknown fire. When Cao Cao learned about Du Yu's affairs, he fell asleep without saying a word and just waved his hand to Cao Pi. When things got to this point, Cao Cao also knew how to respond.
Tianwei has been fighting for many years and has been repeatedly suppressed by Long Fei. This time it seems that it is really going to be over.
Cao Pi took the initiative and reinstated Sima Yi to his post as General Sima, commanding the soldiers and horses along the Yellow River to resist Long Fei. He even followed Sima Yi's suggestion and prepared to move the capital to Fan Yang. The whole country of Wei was in panic. Especially those high-ranking officials.
Worried about the arrival of Long Jun, they all sold off their property and moved their families to other places. The land price in Yecheng fell by 30% in a day.
On the other hand, the common people were not panicked and actually had smiles on their faces. They hoped that Long Jun would come and give them a stable life. Seeing the dignitaries fleeing one after another, the common people were overjoyed. Some beggars were begging for food.
Singing songs at the city gate to bid farewell to these people's departure.
Facing the three-sided siege of the Dragon Army, Sima Yi made a desperate move. He mobilized all the available troops in the country to various front lines, and began to recruit soldiers on a large scale across the country. Anyone over the age of thirteen was recruited to join the army, and even the sixty-year-old man was recruited.
They never let go, and put them all into the army as long as they could still walk. Wei's army and horses reached an unprecedented weight of 800,000, and it once again became the country with the most soldiers and horses among the Three Kingdoms.
Looking at the soldiers coming in batches, Sima Zhao looked particularly confident: "Father, with these soldiers and horses, we believe we can stop Long Fei. As long as we stop Long Fei, it will be impossible for them to remove my father from his official position."
Got it!"
Sima Yi did not smile. He looked at the soldiers entering the city in front of him and suddenly asked: "Where is your uncle now?"
Sima Zhao was stunned and quickly replied: "They say they are being imprisoned by Yu Jin. They have already passed Changshan. I will send someone to ask Yu Jin to release him!"
"No need!" Sima Yi said calmly: "If we, the Sima family, want to gain a foothold in the Wei State, we have to be a little ruthless. Your uncle is not only considered a traitor by the people of the Wei State, but also by the whole world. If we protect him now, I, Sima, will
You will lose your trust in the whole world."
"Just look at uncle..." Sima Zhao didn't say the next words, and Sima Yi didn't continue.
Wei Guo's big move made the Long Army side jubilant. Everyone had been looking forward to fighting this battle for a long time. They had already made preparations, but the Xianbei people's attack had to stop Long Fei. Although the Xianbei people are gone now,
The Xianbei Kingdom is still there. If the Wei State used the excuse of destroying the Xianbei Kingdom, Long Fei would not be able to cross the Yellow River even half a step. Now it is better, the Wei State is the first to increase troops to the bank of the Yellow River, which means that the Wei State is going to take action, so Long Fei can't be blamed.
With the arrival of Wei soldiers and horses, Long Jun's five-pronged army also set up a formation. Long Fei looked at the huge sand table and the green battle flags of the Wei army on the sand table on the bank of the Yellow River, and smiled slightly: "It seems that this
This time Cao Cao is going to spend a lot of money. With so many soldiers and horses, I am afraid he will attract all the men in the Wei Kingdom?"
Xu Shu said: "According to the spies' reports, Sima Yi recruited all the men from Wei State who were thirteen years old and above to join the army, and formed a total of 800,000 soldiers and horses. The number of soldiers and horses on the bank of the Yellow River is no less than 500,000, not including the civilian men. If we add more
It's as big as a million."
"What a big deal! It would take a long time to kill a million people!" Dian Wei giggled.
Li Ru said with a smile: "You may not be able to kill them all in half a day! General Dian's killing method can kill at most ten thousand people in half a day. One million people, that is one hundred and a half days, which is at least more than a month!"
"Ah! Darling, this is too much!" Dian Wei counted on his fingers over and over again. Others laughed secretly.
Guo Jia shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I believe your Majesty's intention is not to kill these people. If these millions of people are brought back to our Tianlong Empire, they will be millions of laborers. With these people reclaiming the land of Hebei, I will
The army's food and fodder will fill all the granaries again."
"Those who know me are filial piety!" Long Fei nodded. Everyone nodded along with Long Fei. Long Fei continued: "If you want to realize this great plan, you must think of a complete strategy, both to drive away Sima Yi and
We must keep these millions of people on the banks of the Yellow River."
"Isn't this simple? Just use the original method, we will divide and disintegrate from within!" Lu Meng finally got the chance to interrupt and spoke impatiently.
Long Fei smiled at him: "Ziming's proposal is good, is there anything else?"
Lu Meng's back was straight, and he was extremely happy. Deng Ai stammered: "Either, or I can send people to steal across the Yellow River and attack Ye directly. If the capital is lost and the soldiers have no fighting spirit, I don't think Sima Yi will retreat in spite of the difficulties."
of."
"This suggestion is not bad!" Long Fei also praised Deng Ai. Deng Ai and Lu Meng looked at each other, feeling pleased with themselves.
Lu Xundao said: "Actually, we don't have to rush to attack at all. A million soldiers will cost a lot every day. And Hebei has been suffering from drought for many years and the people are miserable. I guess there is not much food in the treasury of the Wei State. We only need to go to the first month and Sima Yi
Of course, if we can't hold on, we will take Hebei without any bloodshed!"
"This is a wonderful plan!" Li Ru clapped his hands and applauded. Among the generals of the younger generation, Li Ru was most optimistic about Lu Xun.
Wenpin shook his head: "Even if we don't attack, if Sima Yi's food and grass are not enough, we will definitely give it a try. Then we will have to fight against each other. The Wei army will naturally risk their lives in order to survive. It will definitely be a tragic battle!"
Wenpin's words made everyone fall into deep thought, especially Lu Xun who began to think deeply about his own thoughts. He thought very well, but he did not think of the consequences later. It was because of his lack of experience. Seeing Lu Xun blushing, Long Fei comforted him: "Young man
People should have their own ideas, and even if they are not good, they can still communicate with various veteran generals. I think back then, I didn’t make mistakes everywhere. If it weren’t for our instructor, no, my big brother pointed it out in time, there would be no mistakes.
Today’s achievement.”
"I have a plan, I wonder if General Long would be willing to listen to it?" Two soldiers escorted a young man in civilian clothes, covered in dust, in.
Long Fei quickly got up from his desk and hurriedly walked down. He was walking in a hurry and stepped on the braid in front of him, almost falling to the ground: "Yuan Kai is here, come on, sit down quickly!
"
Du was somewhat moved when he saw Long Fei's appearance, but when he thought that he was the one who had defected, he felt particularly uncomfortable. For his own sake, Long Fei brought his family out of Yecheng and found his father's remains. Du Yu said these
Tian was always on the south bank of the Yellow River. He was not in a hurry to find Long Fei, he just wanted to see if Long Fei was really as benevolent as the people rumored.
Crossing the river from Baima, we walked along Dongjun, Jiyin, Dingtao, and Chenliu. The places we passed gave Du Yu a new understanding of Long Fei. These places were newly occupied by the Long Army.
It can be said that everything is in ruins, and the people's lives have fallen to the bottom. Because of the arrival of the Dragon Army, the people here don't know where to burst out their endless strength.
Du Yu left in a hurry and wanted to ask for a bite. But he was told that if he worked in the government, he would not only get food but also wages. Du Yu followed the male owner of the family and found that at a road construction site, Du Yu
After working hard all morning, I got two steamed buns, a bowl of porridge, and indeed a copper coin. The food I earned through my own labor felt very good in my mouth.
Du Yu has not spent that copper coin yet. Since he was a child, he has supported himself with his own hands for the first time, which makes Du Yu feel deeply. Du Yu understands that Long Fei gave the people dignity in this way. No matter you
No matter whether they are dignitaries or ordinary people, everyone has dignity. They rely on their own hands to eat. There is nothing to be ashamed of. They are confident wherever they go. They are more noble than those who just sit back and enjoy the benefits. Compared with the government relief in the past
, people actually prefer this method, because it allows them to live a more secure life.
Until today, after basically getting to know Long Fei, Du Yu finally made up his mind to join Long Fei. Perhaps only under Long Fei's command can he live a life of supporting his family by his own ability.
Long Fei's attitude towards Du Yu made Du Yu a little surprised. Long Fei took Du Yu's hand and said, "This old boy Li Ru rarely praises people. He always talks about you in front of me these two days. I just miss Yuan Kai."
He must have great abilities. I don't lack anything else here. What I lack is talent. That's why I brought Yuan Kai's family here without discussing with Yuan Kai and retrieved Lord Du's remains. Yuan Kai can rest assured.
From here, if Yuan Kai feels uncomfortable and wants to leave, I will never stop him!"
Seeing Long Fei's eagerness for talents, Du Yu couldn't adapt and didn't know how to answer. Everyone behind Long Fei looked at him with a smile. Du Yu quickly lifted up his clothes and knelt down: "Grandma Du Yu, greetings
Your Majesty, if Your Majesty does not give up, the common people are willing to do the hard work of dogs and horses!"
