Shen Pei lowered his head, his dark eyes rolling, thinking about how to introduce Fazheng into the city.
Thinking of Sima Yi's cold face, Shen Pei kept thinking.
After a moment, Shen Pei looked up at Zhao Yun, with a faint smile, and said calmly: "General Zhao, the army has come from afar, the soldiers are tired and need to rest. Furthermore, Xiahou Dun has invaded Taiyuan and is wreaking havoc in Jinyang. He may be attacked at any time.
If the army appears outside the city, if it is encamped outside the city, it may appear first. When the army enters the city, it can use the fortifications of Jinyang City to resist for a while, allowing the soldiers to recover their strength and eat their stomachs, and then go out of the city to fight Cao's army."
Shen Pei was also smart enough. Fa Zheng objected and he immediately changed his target to Zhao Yun.
Fazheng was only the military advisor, and Zhao Yun was the commander-in-chief of the army.
As long as Zhao Yun gives the order to enter the city, Fazheng cannot change it.
Zhao Yun looked at Shen Pei with deep disgust in his heart, wishing to kill him with a bullet. If Shi A's people hadn't found out the news about Bingzhou's disappearance, he would have been kept in the dark by Shen Pei.
Zhao Yun's heart moved, and he showed a hesitant look on his face, as if he had been persuaded by the trial matchmaker.
Shen Pei hurriedly said: "General, for the sake of the army, enter the city!"
Fazheng stared coldly, with a smile flashing in his eyes. He didn't expect that Zhao Yun would also play tricks on others.
Zhao Yun stared at Shen Pei, sighed, and said: "Mr. Shen, I also think your opinion is good, and it is a mature plan. But His Majesty asked Mr. Fa to command the army. Mr. Fa has the final say on all arrangements. He agreed to enter the city.
Only then can we rest in the city."
In one sentence, the ball was kicked to Fazheng again.
Zhao Yun teased the judge, feeling relaxed and comfortable in his heart.
After hearing Zhao Yun's words, the judge felt as if a thunder suddenly sounded in the clear sky, and the world turned dark. He even wanted to hit the wall and die. He patiently persuaded Zhao Yun, and finally had to face Fa Zheng, a difficult young man.
Shen Pei looked at Fazheng and asked tentatively: "Master Fa, what do you think?"
Fazheng said in a deep voice: "Shen Pei, didn't I tell you that we are stationed outside the city? Do you want to say it a second time? You keep letting us enter the city. Could it be that you have some conspiracy?"
Shen Pei's heart felt cold and his back was already soaked.
He hurriedly shook his head and explained eagerly: "Master Fa, I just hope that Jinyang will be safer if the army enters the city. I didn't expect that your Excellency would have a misunderstanding. In this case, I took the officials back to the city and communicated with you from a distance in the city.
Resist Cao's army." Seeing Fazheng's insistence, Shenpei knew that there was nothing he could do, so he had no choice but to go back and accept Sima Yi's lesson.
Shen Pei led the officials towards Zhao Yun and Fazheng bowed, turned around, and prepared to return to the city.
"Wait!"
Shen Pei took two steps, and Fa Zheng's voice came from behind him.
At this moment, Shen Pei couldn't understand what Fa Zheng meant. Could it be that he had exposed a flaw? As the saying goes, the scariest thing is to scare yourself, and this was the case with Shen Pei.
Fa Zheng's mysterious appearance scares the judge, causing her to have wild thoughts.
The judge turned around with difficulty, put a smile on his face, and bowed: "Master Fa, do you have any other instructions?"
Fazheng looked straight into the distance and did not notice the strange look on Shen Pei's face. He said in a deep voice: "General Zhao and I led nearly 70,000 troops to Jinyang. There is insufficient food and grass, and the soldiers are going to starve. You will prepare after returning to the city.
Ten thousand shi of grain will be eaten by our soldiers tonight. Remember, it must be delivered this afternoon. If it is late, you will be responsible for the consequences."
Fazheng's tone was completely commanding, and with a wave of his hand, he told Shen Pei to turn around and return to Jinyang.
The judge nodded and quickly turned around and returned.
Fa Zheng looked at Shen Pei's leaving figure with a bright smile on his face.
Zhao Yun whispered: "Military advisor, can the judge be fooled?"
Fa Zheng smiled and said: "The judge is in the middle of the game. He is uneasy and has no intention to analyze the matter. The judge is confused and will not take action, but Sima Yi can definitely think of it. They are eager to capture our 70,000 Shu army, so they will definitely do it."
Take action. Go, find a suitable camp outside the city, and solve the accommodation problem first."
Zhao Yun nodded, led his army to retreat, and found a place to camp.
Nearly 70,000 Shu soldiers retreated like a tide.
Sima Yi stood on the city tower and found that the Shu army not only did not enter the city, but withdrew. His face was so gloomy that it almost dripped water. There was a cold light in his eyes and he shouted: "Useless things actually made the Shu army retreat."
Ma Chao clenched the big gun in his hand, his eyes filled with bloodshot eyes.
In the past, when Wang Can attacked Xiliang, Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong participated in it. How could he forget these two people?
Revenge! Revenge!
Ma Chao's heart was constantly filled with thoughts of revenge. Seeing the Shu army withdrawing, Ma Chao's eyes widened and he became furious. He suddenly raised the big gun in his hand and dropped it with a bang, hitting the floor of the city tower. The end of the gun barrel poked on the stone slab.
It actually caused the stone slabs on the ground to break. You can imagine how powerful Ma Chao's blow was.
He looked at Sima Yi and said in a deep voice: "Military advisor, I suggest that you immediately notify General Xiahou and ask him to attack the Shu army. When the time comes, we will go out of the city to attack and destroy Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong in one fell swoop."
Sima Yi shook his head and said: "Don't be anxious, don't panic, you can't get anything done in a hurry."
After a short time, Shen Pei returned to the tower.
Shen Pei's face was full of guilt, and he quickly walked up to Sima Yi, bowed and said: "Military advisor, Fazheng did not allow 70,000 Shu troops to enter the city to rest, and insisted on camping outside the city. Not only that, Fazheng also asked Xia Guan
Prepare 10,000 shi of food and deliver it to the Shu army camp in the afternoon. Their army has insufficient food, so they need to eat it tonight."
"call!!"
A ray of golden light flashed through the air, and the tiger-headed golden gun fell, landing on Shen Pei's shoulder with a thud.
"thump!!"
Shen Pei's legs went weak and he was beaten to the ground by Ma Chao.
Shame!
Shen Pei yelled in his heart, with resentment in his eyes.
At this moment, Shen Pei even had the idea of standing up and fighting Ma Chao. He surrendered to Cao and rebelled against the king. It was true that he had no backbone and no loyalty at all, but he was not something Ma Chao could insult at will. Killing people was just a matter of nodding, so Ma Chao insulted him like this
, simply did not regard him as a human being, which made Shen Pei deeply regret it. If he had known this, even if he was killed, it would be better than living alone now.
The judge kept struggling, but the big gun on his shoulders was like a towering mountain, making it impossible for him to stand up.
The huge force pressed Shenpei to the point where he could only hold on for dear life.
After hearing what Shen Pei said, Sima Yi was angry at first because of Shen Pei's incompetence, and then showed a bright smile. He walked to Shen Pei's side, waved his hand, and put away the big gun that was pressed on Shen Pei's shoulder.
Sima Yi helped Shen Pei up and said calmly: "Mr. Shen, General Ma's father, brother, and even hundreds of members of the Ma family died at the hands of the Shu army. Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong were the murderers. General Ma saw Shu
The army failed to enter the city, so he did something drastic. General Ma made a mistake, but it was excusable. I apologize to Mr. Shen on behalf of General Ma."
Sima Yi clasped his hands together, raised them high and bowed to the trial commander.
At this time, the rationing reviewer was frightened.
His first reaction was not to burst into tears of gratitude to Sima Yi, but to think that Sima Yi and Ma Chao, one pretending to be evil and the other pretending to be good, did this deliberately. The judge was more afraid of Sima Yi and felt cold, but he still hurriedly supported Sima Yi, shook his head and said:
"This official has not completed his task. He feels extremely ashamed. How dare he accept a salute from the military advisor."
Sima Yi stood up and brushed off his wrinkled clothes.
He took Shen Pei's hand and said with a smile: "Mr. Shen, judging from today's situation, Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong are veterans on the battlefield, and Fazheng is also very smart and knows not to let them enter the city. This is Lao Shen's prudent approach, and it can
They fought flexibly with General Xiahou and were not trapped in Jinyang City. From this, it can be inferred that Fazheng and Zhao Yun did not find out about the fall of Jinyang and were just stationed outside the city."
Shen Pei did not say anything about his feelings outside the city, but said: "Military advisor Ming Jian!"
Sima Yi smiled and said loudly: "Although Fazheng is alert, he still shows his weaknesses."
"What weakness?"
Shen Pei and Ma Chao asked at the same time, both looking very anxious.
Sima Yi said seriously: "As Fazheng said, after they entered Bingzhou, the army's food and grass were exhausted. If Jinyang City does not supply food, the 70,000 Shu army outside the city will have to starve, or in Taiyuan County
Looting and stealing food. Since Fa Zheng wants food to fill the soldiers' stomachs, can't we tamper with the food?"
After hearing this, the judge felt a chill in his heart.
The person in front of me is really ruthless, and he thinks of using food as medicine.
Ma Chao frowned and said, "Military advisor, it's not easy to poison food, isn't it?"
Sima Yi said coldly: "Poison? Do you really think that all these years of Fa Zheng's life have been in vain, and you have no ability to distinguish whether food is poisonous? The 70,000 Shu troops outside the city are best to make them lose their combat effectiveness, and then use them to fight.
Our army goes out to fight, suddenly attacks the Shu army camp, and captures Fazheng, Zhao Yun and others. Only then can we achieve the greatest effect. This is a soldier who can conquer the enemy without fighting."
Ma Chao asked again: "How to make the Shu army lose its combat effectiveness?"
Sima Yi replied: "Give them food and wine. You can add perspiration medicine in the wine. The amount is smaller. After drinking, they will not fall down immediately. It will take at least half an hour to make them drowsy. Let them
It was enough to sleep soundly. When I opened my eyes, I was surrounded by them all. With such medicine, even if I tasted wine, I couldn't tell the difference."
Shen Pei cupped his hands and said, "The military advisors are wise, but what if they don't drink?"
Sima Yi said coldly: "This is what you have to consider. If this matter is not completed, you don't have to come back. I have to handle everything personally, so what use do you have?"
The judge was used to the ability of the person in front of him to change his face, so he didn't dare to refuse and immediately went to prepare.
It is not a simple matter to prepare wine and food. Not only that, the trial distribution also has to find a way to get a certain amount of medicine so that people will not fall down immediately after drinking it. The most important thing is,
Only by finding a way to make the Shu army willing to drink can we achieve results. But now we only have half an afternoon, which is very tight.
Shen Pei hurried down the tower and quickly got busy preparing for what was to come.
