Although Sima Yi is extremely old-fashioned and has destiny, Ma Di is not afraid of Sima Yi. To Sima Yi, how can he not be a bug?
Of course, there is no rush to deal with Sima Yi, you have to take your time.
The most important thing at hand is to extend Zhuge Liang's life.
To this day, Ma Su already has a clear understanding of the effect of the Blood Locking Pill.
Although the efficacy of the Blood-locking Pill is that one pill can increase your life span by three months, it does not mean that each pill you take can steadily increase your life span by three months.
This drug effect varies from person to person, and will gradually decrease as the frequency of drug use increases. This is commonly known as the "diminishing drug resistance" effect.
Take Zhao Yun, for example. He originally died of senility because of his old age. If he stopped exerting his energy after taking the Blood-locking Pill, it would be perfectly fine to linger for three years. But Zhao Yun has always stayed in the military, and from time to time he still
To charge into battle and fight on the battlefield... with such a high power output, the efficacy of a single elixir will definitely not reach three months, but it would be good if it could reach two months.
In the past three years or so, Ma Di has given Zhao Yun a lot of blood-locking pills, but Zhao Yun is still aging more than before.
According to Ma Su's estimation, the Blood Locking Pill will not add any more longevity to Zhao Yun for another two to three years at most.
Zhuge Liang's current situation is similar to that of Zhao Yun. He is about to die due to exhaustion of life. Therefore, after taking ten pills, he will no longer work hard and take a good rest. He will definitely live for three years.
Of course, this only happens when older people take medicine. If a young person is suffering from trauma and is on the verge of death, taking a pill will naturally cure the injury and increase his lifespan by far more than three years.
Year.
And if it was myocardial infarction like Ma Su's, after taking ten pills, the symptoms would delay recurrence for three years.
…
The plan to trap and kill Sima Yi continued step by step.
At midnight, Ma Su left four of his generals behind and left the camp alone.
Early the next morning, Zhuge Liang lay dying on his bed. He called all the generals to his tent and told Jiang Wei: "I originally wanted to do my best to restore the Central Plains and revive the Han Dynasty, but God's will is like this. I will die soon.
, I have written twenty-four chapters of what I have learned in my life, totaling one hundred and forty-four thousand one hundred and twelve words. There are eight tasks, seven precepts, six fears, and five methods of fear. I have looked at all the generals, but no one can teach them.
, you are the only one who can pass on my message. Now that I have passed it on to you, don’t ignore it!”
Jiang Wei didn't know that Zhuge Liang's life was in good hands. He thought that Zhuge Liang was really dying. Even so, he still wanted to use the strategy of mourning soldiers to win over Sima Yi. He was so moved that he cried and worshiped Sima Yi.
Zhuge Liang then gave instructions: "The new version of the 'Liannu' engineering drawings have been drawn up. Now there is only a small amount of equipment under Zhao Yun. After my death, you can make and use it according to the law to equip the whole army."
Jiang Wei paid homage again.
All the generals in the tent felt sad.
After pausing for a while, Zhuge Liang said again: "Don't worry too much about the pass roads in central Sichuan. Among the four states of Ji and Han, only Liangzhou still has many hidden dangers. If you have time, you should go to level them."
Jiang Wei nodded repeatedly.
Zhuge Liang called Yang Yi forward and told him in front of all the generals: "After my death, there will be no mourning. You can lead the 30,000 rear troops first, and then slowly retreat battalion by battalion. When Sima Yi saw that my general's star was about to fall,
If it doesn't fall, suspicion will inevitably arouse. If Sima Yi comes to chase, we can set up a situation, put the wooden statue I carved earlier on the cart, push it out in front of the army, and order the soldiers, big and small, to line up on the left and right. Then Sima Yi will definitely be frightened and run away. Wait for Sima Yi to retreat.
At that time, all the generals will cover up and kill you from behind."
Yang Yi accepted the order with his hands raised.
Zhuge Liang called Li Sheng to him and ordered: "You lead 10,000 soldiers and horses to set up an ambush on the left mountain thirty miles away in the inclined valley. But when you see Sima Yi's troops coming, let him pass. But when you see Sima Yi's troops retreat, follow behind to cover them up."
"
Li Sheng accepted the order with his hands raised.
Zhuge Liang called Huang Xi, Zhang Xiu, and Yang Wanwan one by one, and each arranged 10,000 troops and horses in the dark, waiting for Sima Yi to take the bait.
Not long after, all the remaining 100,000 troops and horses were allocated.
That night, Zhuge Liang came out of the tent on a wheeled cart, looked up at the sky, pointed to a bright star in the distance and said, "This is my general's star."
When everyone looked at it, they saw that the stars were extremely bright and bright, and they were all surprised.
If this star represents the Prime Minister's life, doesn't it mean that the Prime Minister's life is still long?
The generals were doubtful, but they saw Zhuge Liang pointing his sword at the star and chanting something. After chanting, the star suddenly dimmed and seemed to be crumbling.
After a while, Zhuge Liang tilted his head and fell unconscious.
That night, the bright night turned to overcast, and the night covered the sky. Yang Yi took Zhuge Liang's breath and announced that the prime minister had passed away.
Afterwards, Yang Yi and Jiang Wei followed their plan and placed Zhuge Liang in a coffin without holding a funeral. They only ordered 300 close soldiers to guard him. They also sent secret orders to all the camps in the rear army and retreated into the inclined valley one by one.
…
On the other side, Sima Yi was watching the sky at night and suddenly saw a big star turning from bright to dark to red and then bright again. After three turns, it became completely dim. Sima Yi was overjoyed and said to himself: "This star suddenly faded."
"It's suddenly booming. It's so strange. Could it be that Zhuge Liang is dead? So he used the method of covering the stars to hide it from me?"
Thinking of this, he quickly sent an order to raise troops to pursue him.
Not long after, the 20,000 vanguard troops were assembled.
Sima Yi led the army out of the stronghold gate with great momentum, but suddenly reined in his horse and stopped, saying suspiciously: "Zhuge Liang is good at the art of Liu Ding and Liu Jia. Now that he has seen that I have not been fighting for a long time, he used this technique to fake death and lure me to go out. Now.
If you chase me, you will definitely fall into his trap."
"That's not right, that's not right. Take a look first before you say anything!"
Then he reined up his horse and returned to the stronghold, and ordered Xiahou Ba to secretly lead dozens of horses to sentry posts near Wuzhangyuan to find out the news. He also specifically asked Xiahou Ba to carefully observe whether Ma Su was in the Shu army camp.
But it was said that Wei Yan was in the main camp in Weinan. He was waiting on the left and saw no military orders from Ma Su, and no military orders from Zhuge Liang on the right. Just when he was wondering, he saw Zhao Zhi, the commander of another department, coming to the camp. He stepped back and said: "At three o'clock last night, the prime minister
He has passed away. On his deathbed, he repeatedly gave instructions to the general to cut off his rear to block Sima Yi and retreat slowly without mourning. Now that the military talisman is here, we can raise our troops."
Wei Yan had already expected this, so he asked: "Who will act on behalf of the prime minister?"
Zhao Zhidao said: "Every major event in the army is handled by Yang Yi; the secrets of military use are all taught to Jiang Wei. This military talisman is the order of Yang Yi."
"Where is Ma Su?" Wei Yan stood up in shock. He had no reason not to be surprised. Recently, many affairs in the army have seemed strange.
Originally, if the prime minister died, there would be no dispute as to his successor, who must be Ma Di. If Ma Di did not take over this important task, then the veteran Zhao Yun should take over. His successor, Wei Yan, should be after Zhao Yun.
Considering that Zhao Yun is so old, it is difficult for him to take charge of a partial army. Therefore, if Ma Di is not in the camp, then he, Wei Yan, must be in charge!
But now the power is given to Yang Yi?
Yang Yi is just a bookkeeper.
Is he worthy?
Zhao Zhi shook his head and said: "Old General Zhao is ill. You Chang has gone to Longshan Road to take charge of the overall situation."
Wei Yan was overjoyed in his heart and said with a righteous look on his face: "Although the Prime Minister is dead, I am still here. Yang Yi is just a registrant, how can he take on such a big post? He should only carry his coffin to Sichuan for burial. I will lead my troops to attack Sima Yi. Northern Expedition
The great cause is at a critical moment, how can it be abandoned just because of the Prime Minister?"
Zhao Zhidao said: "The Prime Minister's order tells us to retreat temporarily and we must not violate it."
Wei Yan said angrily: "If the prime minister had followed my plan at Ziwu Valley, he would have captured Chang'an long ago! I am now serving as the General of Zhengbei and the Marquis of Nanzheng. An Ken will be separated from the throne!"
Zhao Zhi nodded: "Although what the general said is true, you should not move lightly. If you do, it will make the enemy laugh. How about I go to see Yang Yi and explain my interests to him and ask him to give up the military power to the general?"
Wei Yan thought for a while and realized that he only had 10,000 troops under his command, while Yang Yi had at least 50,000 troops under his command, so he followed Zhao Zhi's words.
Zhao Zhi rushed to Dazhai to see Yang Yi and conveyed all Wei Yan's words.
Yang Yidao: "On his deathbed, the Prime Minister once told me that if Wei Yan does not obey the order, I will leave alone and don't worry about him."
So Yang Yi led his troops to support the coffin and slowly retreated, leaving Jiang Wei in the rear.
Wei Yan waited in the stronghold, but when Zhao Zhilai didn't reply, he was confused and ordered Ma Dai to lead ten riders to find out the news.
Not long after, Ma Dai reported back: "Most of the 40,000 rear troops have retreated into the valley, and the rest of the troops have disappeared."
Wei Yan was startled at first, and then became furious: "Shuruan dares to bully me! I will kill him!"
Then he asked Ma Dai: "Will you help me?"
Ma Dai nodded without hesitation: "If it is Ma Su who leads the army, I will be convinced. If it is Yang Yi, I will definitely not be convinced! I am willing to help the general attack now."
Wei Yan was overjoyed, so he immediately pulled out the stronghold, led his troops and horses, took a different road and headed south.
He thought clearly that the Shu Han army must be divided into at least five groups.
All the way to Chengdu, there are not many troops, only more than 30,000, and they are in the hands of His Majesty. All the way to Yunzhou, there are more than 30,000 troops. There is also a part of Baidi City, with more than 30,000 troops.
The rest of the troops totaled 200,000, divided into two groups, responsible for the Northern Expedition to Cao Wei.
Wei Yan's requirements were not high. He knew that he could not compete with Ma Su for the position of general, but he would definitely compete for the chief general of one of the two Northern Expeditionary armies.
As long as he defeats Yang Yi now and gets military power, even if His Majesty Liu Chan thinks he has gone too far in the future, he will never do anything to him.
The reason is that Shu Han lacks generals.
And he, Wei Yan, was a general and had considerable capital.
…
However, it was said that when Xiahouba led his troops to Wuzhangyuan to take a look, no one was seen. He hurriedly reported to Sima Yi: "All the Shu troops have retreated."
Sima Yi paused and said in annoyance: "Zhuge Liang is really dead!"
Just as he was leading the elite troops to chase after him, he suddenly paused and said secretly: "Although Zhuge Liang is dead, Ma Di has not been found. If he is still there, if I go after him, I may never come back!"
Thinking of this, I temporarily suppressed my thoughts of pursuing him.
At this time, Xia Houhe hurried in and reported: "Captain, Ma Su is on the Longshan Road, urging the army to attack Xiaoguan for days."
"Is this information conclusive?"
"conclusive!"
Sima Yi was overjoyed: "Generals, listen to the order and follow me to pursue the Shu army this time!" Then he led his troops together with his second son Sima Zhao to kill Wu Zhang.
When the Wei army shouted and waved the flag and Wu Yangyang entered Wuzhangyuan, they saw that there was no one in the Shu army's stronghold.
Sima Yi told Sima Zhao: "This opportunity for a great victory must not be missed. You should rush the army from behind, and for my father's sake, lead the front army to pursue it first."
So Sima Zhao urged the army from behind; Sima Yi took the lead and chased all the way to the depths of the sloping valley. When he saw the Shu soldiers not far away, he was trying hard to catch up. Suddenly he heard the rumble of war drums, the loud shouts of soldiers, and the flag of the Chinese army slowly and slowly.
While flying, the Shu army turned back.
Sima Yi took a closer look and saw dozens of generals from the Chinese army coming out of a four-wheeled vehicle. Zhuge Liang was sitting on the vehicle, wearing a turban with a feather fan and a crane cloak with a soap ribbon.
He was immediately shocked and exclaimed, "Is Kong Ming still here?! I've fallen into a trap this time, so I fell into a trap! Get out, get out quickly!" After saying that, he reined in his horse and walked back.
Jiang Wei was walking behind, shouting: "Sima Yi, please leave! You have fallen into my prime minister's plan!"
Seeing that most of the governors had run away, the Wei soldiers were even more distraught. They abandoned their armor and helmets, threw their weapons and halberds, and fled for their lives. In the chaos, they trampled on each other, and countless people died.
Sima Yi ran for more than twenty miles, and two generals from Wei caught up behind him. They grabbed the horse's bit and shouted: "Captain, don't be alarmed."
Sima Yi hurriedly touched his head with his hand and asked, "Is my head here?"
The second general replied: "Here, I am still here. Commander, don't panic. The Shu soldiers have not come after you."
Sima Yi breathed a sigh of relief, panted for a long time, and his expression calmed down. He looked carefully and saw that the people holding him were Xiahou Ba and Xia Houhui. He slowly pressed the bridle and looked around at the surrounding terrain.
After a while, he looked up to the sky and laughed endlessly.
The two generals were surprised and asked why. Sima Yi pointed to the steep mountains on both sides and smiled: "I laugh at Zhuge Liang for his many plans and few decisions. If I were to use troops, I would set up an ambush in Bijian to wait for the enemy to retreat. Then, from
If you cover up and kill later, you can achieve a complete victory!"
Zheng smiled proudly when he suddenly saw many heads standing up on the mountainside on both sides. Shu general Li Sheng shouted loudly: "Sima Yi, look who this is?"
Sima Yi took a closer look and almost fainted.
I saw another Zhuge Liang sitting on a four-wheeled vehicle coming out of the mountainside, wearing a feather fan and silk scarf, his appearance was lifelike.
Sima Yi was shocked, suspecting that it was a witchcraft, and without caring about anything else, he hurriedly ran away with his head in his arms before Shu Bing could rush down.
Along the way, Sima Yi didn't know how many Zhuge Liang he met. He even met another Zhuge Liang near Wuzhangyuan when his son Sima Zhao led troops to meet him.
This Zhuge Liang even laughed out loud.
Sima Yi was so frightened that he had no intention of fighting at all. He immediately led the remaining troops and ran away again. Finally, he found a small road and escaped back to his home village.
After taking stock, almost all of the 20,000 elite troops brought out were wiped out. The 60,000 troops brought by the son for support also lost more than 20,000. One-half of the 100,000 troops were gone in an instant (another 50,000 troops were at Xiaoguan).
),lost heavily.
Sima Yi was so frightened that he closed the gate of the village tightly and ordered his generals to disperse their troops to investigate.
But before the sentinels here set off, they heard loud shouts of killing coming from outside Dazhai. When Sima Yi came out of the camp, he saw that he was not well.
I saw tens of thousands of Shu troops leaving and returning, surrounding the Wei army camp.
At the same time, news of the fall of the surrounding Mei County, Zhouzhi, Wugong, Beiyuan and other places came one after another.
Two days later, the scouts reported back: "When the Shu soldiers retreated into the valley, Zhuge Liang and several other Zhuge Liangs in the car were all wooden statues, only one of which was real."
Sima Yi sighed: "Zhuge Liang, what a strange man!"
Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, swept Liuhe, and unified the world. This is the trend of the times.
Bing Yan traveled through the late Warring States period and was in Qi.
Fortunately, because the second generation was able to communicate with the souls of the dead, he was born to be questioned. I thought that in this era, faced with the inherent contempt, it would be difficult for him to tear down the rumors and criticisms against himself.
He never thought that after a huge turning point, he would replace a dead man and go to Qin!
