"This is an inevitable thing. Jiang Ji is a pseudo-wei old minister who supports Sima Yi. Sima Yi can give up Sun Li, but he will never give up Jiang Ji."

"Otherwise, he lost Hebei and returned to Qiao County as a defeated general. Without the support of those old ministers, how could he gain a foothold?"

In fact, Sima Yi was also a fake old minister, and even a representative of the fake old minister.

Most of these old ministers began to follow the Cao family and the Cao Wei Dynasty during the Cao Cao era, and they made a lot of efforts.

General Cao Shuang is a child who sells his land and doesn’t feel sorry for him, he is so happy that he can fly.

But for those old ministers of the pseudo-Wei, this spoiler is wasting most of their hard work.

I have been working hard for most of my life after bleeding and sweating, and I am thinking of leaving a hardcore crop for my descendants and future generations.

Didn't expect you to sell all the fields?

So it is normal for them to be dissatisfied with Cao Shuang.

"I can even guess that he will ask Jiang Ji to come to Liyang to wait for him in advance."

Liyang is close to Baimajin and is one of the important ferries of the river.

During the Battle of Guandu, the Liyang area was the focus of the competition between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao.

Controlling Liyang means controlling the throat of north-south traffic. Sima Yi wants to cross the river and go south, and there is a must-pass way.

Liyang was also the core stronghold for Cao Wei to manage the Central Plains. Liyang Warehouse was set up in the early years as an important grain storage base along the Yellow River.

After Cao Pi became emperor, he gathered naval troops there when he personally conquered Eastern Wu.

"But it's not that easy for Jiang Ji to escape. Wang Han and Shi Bao's army would not watch him run away."

Speaking of this, Sima Feng chuckled, "If Sima Yi wants to leave, he has to leave me 30,000 troops."

"Jiang Ji wants to run away and will not leave some military merits to the two generals Wang Han and Shi Bao."

Wang Han, Shi Bao, Du Yu, Wang Jun, Hu Fen...

Although these people are not famous - except Shi Bao is known as a vicious dog - they are all abilities, and they are at the age of eager to make contributions and dare to fight.

Jiang Ji is just an old man. He must keep the guards of Taihang. Once he abandons the pass and flees, he will not leave anything behind. How could these people let him go easily?

Just taking Shi Bao as an example, do you really think the name of an evil dog is in vain?

If you bite it, you can't let it go.

"And Sima Yi, Jiang Ji and others want to cross the river safely, it is also a dream!" Feng Da Sima's lips curled up slightly, "Jiang Boyue is afraid he is anxious to wait in Henan..."

Luoyang goes eastward from Hulao Pass, which is Baimajin.

Although Jiang Boyue's current military strength is not enough to defeat Sima Yi, he will definitely make military achievements when he harasses and attacks the Wei army retreats back to his army.

As for the size of military merit, it depends on Jiang Boyi Liu Xiuran's ability.

Zhang Bao breathed a deep breath, feeling relieved:

"Before the Grand Sima arrived, I was anxious and said that Sima Yi wanted to lead the army to retreat safely, but he had no choice."

"The Grand Sima has arrived now, and in just a few words, not only can he relieve the irritability in his heart, but he also feels that the destiny of heaven is in Han and the general trend of the world is settled..."

So what if Sima Yi is so powerful?

Even the retreating soldiers was arranged clearly by his brother-in-law. What's the point?

"It's good that this is the case. Although we cannot wipe out all the thieves this time, the tens of thousands of thieves in Hebei have escaped only tens of thousands, which is one of the rare big victories."

When Sima Feng heard his elder brother's words, his mouth was originally just raised, and he couldn't help but smile and laughed out loud.

Zhang Bao heard the laughter, looked at his brother-in-law, and asked dissatisfiedly:

"Why did Grand Sima laugh?"

"I laugh at my brother who knows that the destiny is in Han and that the situation is settled, why do you regret the escaped thief?"

Sima Feng looked south with a gaze:

"No matter how fast the thief escapes, can he still escape from the world? And Sima Yi's escape back may not be a good thing for the pseudo-Wei..."

"Um?"

Zhang Bao's eyes widened.

Judging from what my brother-in-law meant, there is still a backup plan?

This name of foresight is really not for nothing.

"It is known to everyone in the world that Sima Yi and Cao Shuang are in disagreement. If Sima Yi is defeated and fled alone, even if Cao Shuang can let him go, he will be just a dying old man who has only been alive for a few years."

"But if he brought 30,000 to 40,000 people back, then there would be a big deal! Haven't you seen the story of Emperor Guangwu destroying Gengshi with the Red Eyebrow?"

After Emperor Guangwu occupied Hebei, he finally actually broke away from the control of the Gengshi regime.

At the same time, the Gengshi regime had civil strife (Zhang Jue and Wang Kuang rebelled), and the Red Eyebrow Army in Shandong took the opportunity to advance westward, broke through Chang'an, killed Emperor Gengshi and supported Liu Penzi as the emperor.

When the two were fighting, Emperor Guangwu not only did not go to rescue Gengshi, but instead took the opportunity to proclaim himself emperor in Zhencheng, establish his capital in Luoyang, and finally formed an east-west confrontation with the Red Eyebrow.

After the Red Eyebrow Army occupied Chang'an, the food and grass were scarce, and the burning, killing, looting and losing the people's hearts, and was forced to return east.

Emperor Guangwu sent Feng Yi to set up an ambush on Mount Wushan, the Red Eyebrow Army was defeated and surrendered, and Liu Benzi offered a seal to surrender.

In fact, it may be more appropriate to use Cao Cao as an example.

Because after the late emperor took over Xuzhou, Cao Cao used this trick to force the late emperor to start a war with Yuan Shu.

Later, Lu Bu took advantage of the opportunity to capture Xuzhou.

The end result was that Yuan Shu and Lv Bu were defeated one after another, and the late emperor had to commit himself to Cao Cao.

Xuzhou was taken into the bag by Cao Cao.

It’s just that because of the honorific’s taboo, Sima Feng naturally would not use this matter as an example.

General Zhendong was the first to react and blurted out and said, "Turn the tiger and swallow the wolf!"

Sima Feng waved his hand:

"No, no! Cao Shuang is not a pig or a dog, Sima Yi is not a tiger, he is at most a wolf, so this is called driving the wolf to swallow the pig!"

General Zhendong was a little confused:

"Even if Cao Shuang is incompetent, Qiao County is the old nest of Cao's family. Moreover, Cao Shuang is in charge of the government affairs, and all the people in the court have their troops, and their strength is several times that of Sima Yi. Sima Yi is newly defeated, can he compete for Cao Shuang?"

Sima Feng smiled but said nothing.

In history, Sima Yi could kill Cao Shuang with three thousand death soldiers. Now he asked him to bring tens of thousands of troops back. If he could not deal with Cao Shuang in this way, he would not be called Sima Yi.

As for why he must have brought so many soldiers back?

Of course, it is because only in this way can Cao Shuang feel a sense of crisis.

Cao Shuang felt a sense of crisis, and the conflicts accumulated before, he attacked Sima Yi.

Only Sima Yi will try his best to resist...

Everyone is living hard, right?

"Although the army has no way to chase the thieves, they still have to send more teams of troops and find ways to detour south to see if they can contact Wang Han Shibao and the others."

"Also, I will directly send someone to Taihang Mountain along the Zhang River and go to Shangdang Huguan through the Fukou Pass."

In this battle, Shi Bao was originally a garrison in Huguan, and he could use the three routes of Fukou Xing, Baixing and Taihang Xing to threaten Henoi and Jizhou.

I just don't know which one he would choose.
