To the west of Baima Lake is Hongze Lake. Although it is adjacent to Baima Lake, Baima Lake is located on the boundary of Xuzhou, while Hongze Lake is located on the boundary of Yangzhou. On the west bank of Hongze Lake, there is a dense reed marsh.
, the reed grass is densely packed, occupying this large area of the lake. But if someone passes through the periphery of this reed marsh, they will be surprised to find that in the center of the reed marsh, there is a large island!
In fact, this island is not so hidden. As long as the fishermen around Hongze Lake know about this originally deserted island, the current island has changed from the deserted scene in the past, with white flags erected everywhere.
Camp! This is where the Chu army led by Zhuge Liang is hiding!
A military ship passed through the reed swamp and came to the small island. Before it docked, countless soldiers and horses rushed out from the camp, each raising their weapons and pointing at the military ship. However, as
After the thin figure appeared from the military ship, the soldiers immediately put away their weapons and shouted in unison: "See the military advisor!"
Zhuge Liang walked off the military ship with a dark face. This time he had to choose to leave Zhang Fei and escape alone. It was not because Zhuge Liang was greedy for life and feared death. The 80,000 Chu troops were Liu Bei's last hope. If he
If you pay the compensation, you can imagine the fate of these 80,000 Chu troops! So Zhuge Liang could only reluctantly leave Zhang Fei behind and return to the military camp alone. However, Zhuge Liang didn’t know how to face Zhang Fei’s son Zhang in the military camp.
bud!
Seeing Zhuge Liang getting off the warship, the soldiers in front of him gave way to a path. From the other side of the road, Sima Yi walked out quickly. Seeing Zhuge Liang's appearance, Sima Yi asked Zhuge Liang in surprise:
"Lord Zhuge! Why are you back alone? Where is the Marquis of Chu? Where are the three generals?"
Hearing Sima Yi's question, Zhuge Liang thought of Liu Bei and others who died tragically by the Baima Lake, and his nose couldn't help but feel a little sore. However, Zhuge Liang also knew very well that he must not announce Liu Bei's death in front of the soldiers of the three armies.
, so I could only endure the severe pain in my heart, waved to Sima Yi, and said: "Sir Ma, we will talk about it later, let's go to the military camp! By the way, please send someone to invite Major General Zhang here! I
I have something to explain to him personally!" It is true that he left Zhang Fei alone and Zhuge Liang did not intend to avoid the matter, so Zhuge Liang did not want to tell Zhang Bao through someone else's mouth.
Sima Yi's eyes flashed with strange colors, and he seemed to have understood Zhuge Liang's intention. He made a gesture of invitation to Zhuge Liang and said: "Okay! Master Zhuge! Please! And you, please help the soldiers returning to the camp."
Let’s clean up, all the soldiers have worked hard, let them have a good rest!”
Under Sima Yi's command, the soldiers stepped forward one after another, and Sima Yi led Zhuge Liang directly to the large tent located in the center of the camp. After retreating the soldiers on the left and right, Zhuge Liang also sighed and decided to go to White Horse Lake to greet him.
Liu Bei narrated what happened, and then Zhuge Liang's face was filled with grief, and he could no longer hold back his tears. He beat his chest and cried: "I made a miscalculation this time! I didn't expect that the Western Qin Army would be able to find this place, let alone Zhao Yun."
How could he see through this plan so quickly! What caused misfortune to my lord! It’s all my fault!”
After listening to Zhuge Liang's words, Sima Yi's face was also full of astonishment. Apparently he did not expect that such a thing would happen. After a long while, Sima Yi finally regained his composure and hurriedly asked: "Zhuge Liang
Sir, are you sure that the Marquis of Chu has been killed by Zhang Liao and others? And General Chen and the three generals! They have all been..."
"That's right!" Zhuge Liang shook his head with grief on his face and said, "My lord died before we arrived, and we also saw General Chen die at the hands of the enemy with our own eyes! As for the three generals, although I didn't see it
He died at the hands of an enemy general, but Zhao Yun has already arrived with his sword-fighting cavalry. The three generals are outnumbered and there is no chance of survival! Alas!"
"Oh!" Sima Yi responded and lowered his head with a complicated expression. But when Sima Yi responded, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but trembled, raised his head suddenly, and stared at Sima Yi closely.
There were tears in the corners of his eyes, but his face was full of seriousness, and he suddenly said: "Master Sima! Go and call Major General Zhang! I left the three generals to escape alone. It is really an unjust act. I should ask the Major General to personally
Only by executing me can I make up for the guilt in my heart!"
"Oops!" Sima Yi was startled for a moment, but then quickly said: "Master Zhuge! You must not do this! Although the Marquis of Chu is dead, the wishes of the Marquis of Chu still need to be inherited by Master Zhuge! Please Master Zhuge, please don't do it because of this!"
Throw away this useful body in a moment of anger!"
After listening to Sima Yi's persuasion and looking at Sima Yi's behavior, Zhuge Liang suddenly smiled coldly on his face. Although it looked a bit funny with the tears on his face, the meaning of the smile was full of coldness!
Zhuge Liang said coldly: "Lord Sima! I have asked you to invite Major General Zhang to come here before, but you have not moved yet. But what's the secret?"
"Huh?" Sima Yi was stunned again and looked carefully at Zhuge Liang in front of him for a long time. Finally, Sima Yi suddenly smiled, but compared with Zhuge Liang's sneer, Sima Yi's smile was much more complicated! Sima Yi slowly walked to the side
Mazha sat down and said calmly: "Master Zhuge, what do you mean by this?"
Zhuge Liang's eyes were always fixed on Sima Yi, and he said gloomily: "My plan to hide the truth this time is not perfect, but if it is done according to the plan, the lord should be able to escape! Zhang Liao and Gan Ning
The Guangling troops led by him suffered heavy losses after the last battle outside Xiangxiang City. Logically speaking, they should not leave the city easily, let alone come to the White Horse Lake! But now Zhang Liao and Gan Ning not only arrived at the White Horse Lake
, and the time and location are so accurate! Then there is only one explanation, someone has leaked the secret!"
"Oh?" Regarding Zhuge Liang's words and his eyes filled with resentment and resentment, Sima Yi shrugged his shoulders indifferently. He seemed to be quite interested in what Zhuge Liang said and asked with a smile: "Then according to Zhuge Liang's words,
Sir, who is the most suspicious person?"
At this point, the answer is actually self-evident. Zhuge Liang's eyes were as if they were about to spit out fire. But then, Zhuge Liang took a deep breath and suppressed the anger and anger in his heart.
, said in a deep voice: "There have been only five people who knew about this plan from the beginning! My lord! The three generals! Me! General Chen! Now apart from me, the other three of these four people are dead! What's left?
The only one is you, Lord Sima! You are the one who leaked the secret!"
"Hahahaha! Wonderful! Wonderful!" Sima Yi praised him with paws, nodded to Zhuge Liang, and said with a smile: "Master Zhuge is indeed very intelligent! No wonder the King of Qin always praised Master Zhuge! It's a good thing that Master Zhuge is loyal to the Marquis of Chu.
, otherwise, even if Xiaguan defected to Western Qin, he would still be under Lord Zhuge!"
Sima Yi's words actually acknowledged Zhuge Liang's identification. Zhuge Liang's eyes were full of resentment, his teeth were biting his lower lip tightly, and the nails of his hands were deeply embedded in the palms of his hands, digging out blood beads! Zhuge Liang resisted.
With the urge to rush forward and fight Sima Yi, he gritted his teeth and asked: "Why? Why do you do this? If it is just for the title of the number one think tank in the lord's account, I can give it to you! Why do you have to do this?
So awesome?"
"Tsk tsk!" Sima Yi shook the hem of his clothes, stood up slowly, stretched out his finger and shook it at Zhuge Liang, and said: "Master Zhuge, you are smart all your life, but you are confused for a moment! With the current general trend of the world, Master Zhuge
Do you think the Lord of Chu still has a chance to make a comeback? In fact, even the lower official can see the situation. With Master Zhuge’s talent, it is impossible not to see through it! If the lower official guessed correctly, Master Zhuge probably wants to take the lord with him.
By staying far away from the Central Plains, although the lord has lost his hegemony, he can at least maintain his fairness and safety! I wonder if your guess is correct?"
"That's right! You guessed it right! Your intelligence is not inferior to mine at all!" Although he was full of resentment towards Sima Yi, Zhuge Liang still affirmed Sima Yi's talent!
"Thank you Lord Zhuge for your compliment!" Sima Yi smiled and saluted, then continued to shake his head and said: "Perhaps, for Lord Zhuge, being able to protect the safety of the Marquis of Chu is enough! But for me, Sima Yi, this is
It's far from enough! Back then, under Cao Cao's tent, I had to succumb to Xu Yuanzhi, and now under Chu Hou's tent, I have to be on your left! If Chu Hou is just a bit conciliatory, then I will never perform any meritorious service in this life.
How can I surpass you if I have the opportunity?" Sima Yi said as his eyes began to shine, clearly filled with ambition!
Regarding Sima Yi's words, Zhuge Liang just smiled coldly and snorted: "If that's the case, wouldn't you have made a wrong move? Under the lord's account, you only need to surpass me! But when it comes to Western Qin, there are so many talents in Western Qin.
, the difficulties Lord Sima has to face are many times more difficult! If nothing else, Pang Shiyuan alone is not as talented as me and Xu Yuanzhi!"
"Hahahaha!" Sima Yi smiled up to the sky again, but there was a hint of helplessness in the laughter. He shook his head and sighed: "Students from Lumen are unparalleled in the world! I, Sima Yi, pride himself on being a genius, but I am destined to be defeated by you Lumen in this life.
Student, hold it down! You are right. If I arrive in Western Qin, at least the first person I have to face is Pang Shiyuan! Not only that, Guo Fengxiao, Xi Zhicai, Lu Zijing, Lu Boyan, etc., among the Western Qin
With so many talents, the difficulties I have to face can be said to be several times greater than now! But at least I still have a chance! Even if I can't achieve it in troubled times, I will have other ways after the world is unified! Don't forget
