Chapter 631: After thinking about the road, Cao's arrangement
"Sima is here!" Just when the Cao family and his son's faces were full of sadness, a shout came from outside the door. There was no pop-up window. The Cao family and his son quickly wiped the tears from their faces, leaving only red eyes!
"See you, Your Majesty, two princes!" Sima Yi strode into the room and saluted the three of them!
"No courtesy!" Cao Cao, who was leaning on the couch, waved his hand, while Cao Ang and Cao Pi quickly returned the courtesy.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" He stood up and was about to say something when he saw the eyes of Cao and his son were red and swollen. Sima Yi couldn't help but asked with some confusion: "Your Majesty, what happened? Why do you seem to have just cried?"
"It's okay!" Cao Pi reacted quickly and said with a smile: "My father is a great hero, but he is tortured by head wind. Seeing my father look so thin, my eldest brother and I felt sorry for him, so we cried bitterly, so that my father also
It’s been affected!”
"That's it!" Sima Yi nodded and stopped pestering him. He asked again: "Why does the king invite me here?"
Cao Cao smiled and said: "Zhongda, I am so alone and have a bad habit. I have fainted several times and am really unable to handle important military and political affairs. I invite you here today because I want you to take charge of all Shouchun affairs!"
"This..." Sima Yi was stunned for a moment, and quickly declined: "How could I be so virtuous and capable that I dare to take charge of the Shouchun event? The king's sons are all in the palace, so I ask the king to choose a good person to take charge of the overall situation!"
"Why should Zhongda be so humble? Facing the powerful Liu Zhang, how can a few sons of Gu be able to stop him? Please spare no effort and take more responsibility!" Cao Cao was smiling, but his words
But there is no doubt that Sima Yi even saw a bright light in his eyes!
His heart was racing, and Sima Yi suddenly caught a glimpse of Cao Ang and Cao Pi next to him from the corner of his eye. He couldn't help but smile and said: "Your Majesty, the eldest prince has an unparalleled military strategy. The second prince is good at government affairs. Let the two princes take charge of important military and political affairs. I will watch from the side.
Assistant, what do you think?"
"Alas..." Cao Cao sighed and said, "Since Zhongda insists, let's do it! Zixiu, Zihuan, you must listen to Zhongda more and don't disobey in the slightest!"
"I obey my father's order!" Cao Ang and Cao Pi immediately bowed and obeyed, appearing very respectful.
Sima Yi showed a wry smile. He could tell that Cao Cao wanted to find a scapegoat, but even if he didn't want to be the scapegoat, he couldn't do it. Not to mention that Shouchun was still under Cao Cao's control. If he refused, he would definitely be killed. Let's talk about Liu Zhang.
After conquering Shouchun, you can let anyone go, but you will never let him go!
"I am determined to live up to your Majesty's expectations!" Thinking of this, Sima Yi made up his mind and accepted Cao Cao's appointment. In order to have a life-or-death showdown with Liu Zhang, he could only exert his best efforts if he had the power of Shouchun.
"Okay!" Cao Cao smiled and said, "I'll trouble Zhongda!"
"The king's words are serious!" Sima Yi said with cupped hands: "Since the king has entrusted Shouchun affairs to me, I will go down and arrange it carefully!"
"Go!" He seemed to hear the shouting of killing outside the city, and Cao Cao's head began to hurt again. He waved his hand and drove Sima Yi, Cao Ang, and Cao Pi out!
As soon as he walked out of the bedroom, Cao Pi immediately raised his hands to Sima Yi and asked: "Sima Daru, what should we do now? Please give me your instructions!"
"How dare you!" Sima Yi returned the courtesy: "Please ask the second prince for advice!"
"Okay, okay!" Seeing that Sima Yi was still hypocritical, Cao Ang said impatiently: "Sima Daru, my father asked us to listen to you, so please stop being humble! Liu Zhang's troops are approaching the city, you'd better give the order quickly!
"
"This..." Sima Yi said with a smile: "Don't worry, eldest prince, I have already prepared all the defenses I should do, and even used bamboo to form baffles to guard against the Qin Army's Thunderbolt Chariot!"
"Bamboo?" Cao Ang said with a bitter smile: "Even bricks and stones can't withstand stone bullets, how can mere bamboo and wood stop them?"
"What the eldest prince said is wrong!" Sima Yi said: "Although bricks and stones are hard, they will inevitably break as soon as they encounter something harder than it. Bamboo and wood are flexible, but they can often withstand strong impact forces. Qin Jun's thunderbolt
The car is indeed powerful, but it will still pause during the attack. As long as you don't attack continuously, you will never be able to break through the bamboo wall!"
Cao Pi held his chin and asked thoughtfully: "If a dozen thunderbolt vehicles are used to attack one point at the same time, will the bamboo wall be difficult to resist?"
"The second prince is too worried!" Sima Yi said: "Instruments like the Thunderbolt Chariot have never been very accurate. If the Qin army can aim a dozen Thunderbolt Chariots at one point and bombard them, our army will never be able to defend Shouchun!"
"This..." Cao Pi thought for a while and realized that this was true. He smiled and said: "Sima Daru is so wise, no wonder his father trusts him. However, if we just hold on, I'm afraid our army still won't be able to hold on. Should we think about it?"
How to take the initiative?"
"Don't worry, Second Young Master!" Sima Yi said: "Our army and Jiangdong have formed an alliance and have agreed that when our army fights with Liu Zhang's army, Jiangdong's army will sneak attack Jingzhou to cut off the Qin army's contact!"
"Can the Jiangdong Army be trusted?" Cao Ang frowned and said, "Sun Quan has always been treacherous. I'm worried that he will be detrimental to our army again."
"It won't happen this time!" Sima Yi said with a bitter smile: "If Sun Quan dares to do something that is detrimental to himself at this moment, it is no different than seeking death."
"I hope so!" Cao Ang sighed, and he finally understood Cao Cao's despair. Facing a strong enemy with unreliable allies, anyone would feel bleak about their future!
Since Sima Yi had arranged everything, there was no need for Cao Ang, so Cao Pi had to worry. In order to show his trust in Sima Yi, Er Ru just inspected around and then returned to the house! When Er Ru returned to the house, he secretly ordered his family members to clean up their belongings.
, prepared to leave the city and surrender, and Cao Pi asked his wife to take the family to Cao Ang's house. Although Cao Pi's wife was reluctant to leave her husband, she did not dare to disobey her husband's order!
"Husband, everything is packed!" Cao Ang's house was in chaos for a long time before it gradually calmed down. Cao Ang's wife, Lu, immediately reported the situation to her husband!
"That's very good!" Sitting in the hall, holding the bronze wine baron, Cao Ang's eyes were a little straight. Although it was not the place where he grew up, everything in the mansion was arranged by him himself, and he was really reluctant to let it go!
"Husband, are we going to flee again?" Lu is the daughter of Lu Bu. From childhood to adulthood, her memories are filled with endless escapes. Seeing Cao Ang's actions, she understood!
"Qiling, I'm going to make you suffer again!" Cao Ang held his beloved wife in his arms, his face full of love. Although Lu Bu was not a good guy, his daughter was as gentle as water, knowledgeable and courteous. Of course, if
It would be a big mistake to regard Lu as a weak woman. Some years ago, someone spoke ill of Lu Bu, but she corrected her!
"As long as I am with you, I am not afraid of death!" Holding Cao Ang, Lu's trembling body had betrayed her. Although she said she was not afraid, Yao knew what kind of dangers would arise in the chaos of war. She
After all, Jing is a woman!
"Don't worry, none of us will die!" As if he felt something strange about his wife, Cao Ang stroked the black hair on her head with his hand and whispered in her ear: "Father asked me to surrender to Liu Zhang after the city is broken..."
"What?" Lu said in shock: "Husband, if you surrender to Liu Zhang, won't your and my lives be in his hands? How could my father-in-law have such an arrangement? What if..."
"Don't worry, father is not wrong!" Cao Ang smiled and said: "Father said that only by surrendering to Liu Zhang can we survive. Otherwise, neither Sima Yi nor Sun Quan will let us go!"
"Mr. Sima? Sun Quan? Didn't they all join on their own?" Lu was a little confused. Although she was knowledgeable and courteous, she still had Lu Bu's blood flowing in her body, so she was not very good at politics and conspiracy.
"Silly girl!" Cao Ang patted Lu's head affectionately, and said with a smile: "You don't need to think about these things, you should just listen to my arrangements!"
"Well..." Leaning on Cao Ang's chest, Lu Shi nodded fiercely. She believed that her husband could protect her, just like Lu Bu protected her back then. Thinking of her father Lu Bu, Lu Shi raised her head again and asked: "Husband, father
No news yet?"
"My father sent scouts everywhere, but he didn't detect the movements of his father-in-law. He must have been hiding!" Cao Ang was also a little puzzled when he mentioned Lu Bu. Since the defeat of Runan, Lu Bu has disappeared. It has been more than a month.
However, there was no news at all. Even Chen Gong and Gao Shun did not know where they had gone.
If Lu Bu was killed in battle, not to mention Cao Ang, even Cao Cao didn't believe it. Of course, there is a possibility that Lu Bu would be killed in battle, and that is to be surrounded by seven or eight generals of the Qin army. But this situation is absolutely impossible, because Lu Bu did not believe it.
Not stupid. If so many generals of the Qin army pounced on him, wouldn't he run away?
"Well, if father were here, maybe we would be safer!" Shaking her head, Lu's face was full of worry. She had a kind of blind worship and trust in Lu Bu!
"My father-in-law is not here, so I am still there!" After hearing his wife's words, Cao Ang showed a wry smile. If Lu Bu was here, surrender might be a luxury. He remembered that Lu Bu and Liu Zhang seemed to be love rivals. Of course, Lu Bu was
He thought so, but Liu Zhang refused to admit it!
"Well!" Seemingly not seeing the bitterness on her husband's face, Ms. Lu continued to lie in her husband's arms and said, "Husband, since you want to surrender, do you want to bring your mother with you? Now that my father is missing, I am worried about my mother..."
"Oops!" Cao Ang slapped his forehead and said, "Look, I have forgotten it! Not only your mother, but also my mother and younger brother have to be picked up to avoid any accidents among the rebellious army!"
"Brother, no need!" A hearty voice sounded, and Cao Pi slowly walked into the hall, followed by a large group of people from the Cao family behind him.
"The second brother is still capable and wants to get ahead of his brother!" Cao Ang was overjoyed when he saw Lai Rui, but he searched all over the group but could not find his mother, Ding.
"Stop looking, mother is not here!" How could Cao Pi not know what Cao Ang was looking for? He shook his head and said: "Not only Ding Furu, but also several other Furu, are not prepared to leave. They want to live with their father.
die…"
"Alas..." After hearing what Cao Pi said, Cao Ang opened his mouth, but didn't say anything. He just sighed.
