    Chapter 290 "Winner in Life"

    "Cao Cao's precedent?"

    Liu Feng was startled for a moment, and then he realized what he was doing.

    Although Cao Cao was quite suspicious of Sima Yi's "wolf-like eagle" attitude before, in order to win over the nobles and prove his desire for virtue, he finally re-employed Sima Yi and made him the chief clerk of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

    It was Cao Cao's seemingly insignificant trust in Sima Yi that finally gave this man an opportunity to take advantage of.

    Originally, the big defeat in the Battle of Lejia was not enough to completely defeat Cao Cao, but the rebellion in Luoyang dealt a fatal blow to Cao Cao and cut off Cao Cao's way back north.

    The bitter consequences of Cao Cao's "trust" in Sima Yi are right in front of him. This should be exactly what Jiang Qian pointed out.

    With such a lesson learned from the past, Jiang Gan didn¡¯t need to remind him, Liu Feng also knew it.

    Jiang Gan's words showed Liu Feng that he and Sima Yi were not in the same camp, and the previous cooperation was just an expedient strategy.

    "Ziyi, what you said seems to be a failure of Zhongda's trust in you?" Liu Feng said with a smile.

    Jiang Gan was at ease and said happily: "Sima Zhongda and others are all from famous families in the Central Plains. They have disdain for people like me from the Jianghuai River. If he hadn't known that I had a relationship with Da Sima back then,  They won¡¯t let me take this trip, so Zhongda and I are not on the same road at all.¡±

    I see.

    Liu Feng was depressed for a long time and asked: "Now that the Central Plains has been decided and the world is about to be unified, the most urgent thing to do is to gather the wise men in the world to rule for peace. But I don't know what Ziyi has to say."

    Jiang Qian did not shy away and said calmly: "Since the Han Dynasty, relatives, eunuchs and scholars have fought with each other. Although it has caused great harm to the country, in other words, the three-party restriction has also prevented one party from becoming dominant and causing harm to the imperial power. Now  The relatives and eunuchs have been eliminated, and the gentry dominates the world. If the Great Sima only wants to help the Han Dynasty, he can rule the world with the scholars. But if the Great Sima has other ambitions, he must be careful to avoid the consequences of his hard work.  The foundation ends up being a wedding dress for others.¡±

    Jiang Qian¡¯s words touched Liu Feng¡¯s heart.

    When he first came to this era, he actually didn¡¯t know much about the background of this era, but over the years, his knowledge has been far from what it was back then.

    As Jiang Gan said, wouldn¡¯t it be a great irony if he ended up with Cao Wei after working so hard to build this great country?

    Liu Feng smiled: "Then according to Ziyi's plan, if I don't use scholars to rule the world, who can I use?"

    Jiang Gan said hurriedly: "To govern the world, talents must be used, and talents are mostly from scholars. This cannot be avoided. What I mean is that Da Sima can use another method of employing people."

    "What method?" Liu Feng was suddenly curious.

    Jiang Gan said unhurriedly: "The scholars in the Central Plains are powerful and have a deep foundation. If they are used to govern the government, it will definitely cause disaster in the future. I think that the Great Sima should use Jingyang scholars to rule the world."

    After twisting and turning, I finally arrived here.

    Liu Feng took a sip of wine and asked, "What's the truth behind Ziyi's words?"

    Jiang Gan said with great interest: "The Great Sima rose in Jingchu, so the scholars in Jingchu were naturally more loyal to the Great Sima. And the Great Sima had a marriage relationship with the Sun family. This section also made the Yangzhou scholars feel more loyal to the Great Sima."  Sima surrendered wholeheartedly. Furthermore, Jingyang is located in the south, and the strength of the nobles is far less powerful than that of the Central Plains nobles. If Great Sima attaches great importance to the scholars of Jingyang, he does not have to worry about losing power. With these two great benefits, I wonder what Great Sima thinks?"

    Jiang Qian's plan was not unreasonable, but Liu Feng soon realized that Jiang Qian's words were not all what Liu Feng had imagined. I'm afraid there was also some evil intention in them.

    Jiang Qian was a native of Jiujiang, and he himself was a famous figure in Yangzhou.  Now he suggested that Liu Feng reuse Yangzhou scholars. Obviously, he was fighting for the interests of the scholars in his hometown.

    Liu Feng is not stupid, he can clearly see Jiang Gan's selfishness.

    "Of course what Ziyi said is reasonable, but I want to ask, if I reuse the Jingyang scholars to rule the world, and a hundred years later, the power of the Jingyang scholars expands to the point of being uncontrollable, wouldn't it be the same as what we are facing today?  Is the situation exactly the same? Ziyi's concerns are still unsolved."

    Jiang Gan was startled for a moment, and said happily: "Everything in the world happens again and again. This is the normal way. It is not easy for the great Sima to make a plan for a hundred years. As for what will happen a hundred years later, who can predict."

    Who can predict what will happen a hundred years from now

    After being silent for a long time, Liu Feng suddenly burst into laughter.

    ??##########

    Three days later.

    According to Liu Feng's order, Sima Yi disbanded more than 10,000 miscellaneous troops on the front line of Chaoge as promised, and successfully transferred the Han Emperor to the hands of Chen Dao and other generals.

    Sima Yi, Jiang Ji, Wang Lang and other celebrities and ministers who participated in the Luoyang Incident also obediently rushed to Liu Feng's camp to show their loyalty to the new master.

    Also in the Chinese army's tent, Liu Feng greeted them warmly and held a banquet to entertain these "meritorious ministers".

    Liu Feng finally met the legendary "Winner of Life" Sima Yi.

    ??On the surface, he looks like an ordinary man who doesn¡¯t stand out very much.

    Sima Yi¡¯s words and deeds were all so respectful, and there was almost no edge at all in this man.

    Moreover, in the conversation between Sima Yi and Liu Feng, he praised Liu Feng's wisdom and martial prowess from beginning to end, without mentioning any of his own contributions.  Have more than half an influence.

    A humble and low-key person, this was Liu Feng¡¯s initial impression of Sima Yi.

    However, Liu Feng knew very well that all this was just a superficial disguise. Under that humble face, there was a heart that no one could guess.

    From the first moment Liu Feng saw Sima Yi, he reminded himself all the time that he must not be deceived by this man's superficial appearance.

    After several polite remarks, Liu Feng asked with a smile: "I have heard for a long time that Zhongda is resourceful and resourceful. Now that the world is about to be unified, Liu Bei is the only one who is stubbornly resisting. I would like to hear what Zhongda has to say."

    Sima Yi hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "Da Sima has received the award. How can I have any noble opinions? I do have some foolish opinions. I am afraid that I will make Da Sima laugh by saying them out."

    Liu Feng waved his hand and said with a smile: "Zhongda is being too modest, but it doesn't matter."

    Sima Yi then said: "The lower official believes that what Grand Sima should do now is to welcome His Majesty and return the capital to Luoyang, and at the same time send troops to the north to capture Ji and Youzhou, to frighten the barbarians in the north, to pacify the Yiyue in the south, and to reassure the people in the interior.  After resting for a year and a half, when the fighting spirit of the soldiers is restored and the food and grass are sufficient, we can then send out seven troops to attack Liu Bei, and we will be able to conquer the world in one fell swoop."

    "Seven routes to attack Liu Bei?" Liu Feng suddenly became more interested, "I wonder which five routes it is?"

    Sima Yi stood up, walked to the hanging map and raised his finger to point.

    "The first route is to send troops from Youzhou, go south to Yanmen, and launch an attack on Bingzhou from the north. The second route is to send troops from Jizhou, and go straight to Taiyuan County, the heart of Bingzhou, from the Jingxing line. The third route is to start from Taiyuan County, the heart of Bingzhou.  Hanoi marched westward and captured Hedong County. After these three armies captured Bingzhou, they met again in Hedong and marched from Pubanjin to Guanzhong from the north."

    Sima Yi paused for a moment, then continued: "The fourth group of soldiers and horses should attack Tongguan from Hongnong, and attack Guanzhong from the main road. The fifth group of troops should start from Wancheng, and attack Guanzhong from Wuguan. These two groups of soldiers should start from Wancheng.  The horses are for the middle route army and should be the main force to destroy Liu."

    He talked eloquently and gradually became excited.

    After taking a breath, he added: "As for the troops of the sixth route, they will start from Hanzhong, either through Xiegu, or take the old Chencang road, and attack Guanzhong in the north. The seventh route army will take the Qishan Avenue to capture Longyou.  , cutting off the connection between Guanzhong and Liangzhou, preventing them from looking at each other. These two armies are the South Route Army. Because the mountains in Shu are dangerous and difficult to attack, they should be partial divisions to contain the enemy's strength. These seven armies  , attacking Liu Bei in an arc-shaped formation from the north, center, and south. I believe Liu Bei¡¯s troops from the three states will not be able to resist, and it will be a piece of cake for Da Sima to dominate the world."

    Liu Feng was infected by his strategy and couldn't help but stand up. He looked at the map for a long time and couldn't help but clapped his hands and applauded: "What a brilliant plan to attack Liu Bei in seven directions. Zhongda, what are you doing here?"  My humble opinion is clearly a rare and noble opinion.¡±

    Sima Yi smiled lightly and said: "The lower official is just talking nonsense. There must be some omissions in it, which makes Da Sima and all my colleagues laugh."

    Although Sima Yi was humble, he took the opportunity to "show off" in front of Liu Biao to show off his talents.

    It's no wonder, being a courtier is a low-key thing, but you can't act useless. If Sima Yi keeps silent and just pretends to be stupid, not only will Liu Feng not feel at ease with him, but it will make Liu Feng think that he is doing it on purpose.  hide.

    After all, how could a foolish person betray Cao Cao and kidnap the Han Emperor at such a critical moment?

    Liu Feng remembered Sima Yi's plan of sending troops in seven directions, so he promised to entrust Sima Yi with the post of Guanglu Qing on the spot.

    This Guanglu Qing is one of the Nine Qings. In principle, he controls the garrison of the capital. Liu Feng's commission is??, Yuan fully demonstrated his respect for Sima Yi.

    In addition to Sima Yi, Liu Feng also generously rewarded "meritorious ministers" such as Jiang Ji. On the same day, he sent someone to draft an imperial edict and sent it to Han Emperor Liu Xie to have it stamped.

    Sima Yi and others defected to Liu Feng for their own natural interests. Liu Feng's reward naturally made them satisfied.

    Although this group of people declined modestly at first, after Liu Fengjian's resignation, everyone still thanked and accepted "respect is worse than obeying orders".

    Two days after the banquet, Liu Feng personally sent Sima Yi and others out of the camp and ordered them to return to Luoyang first to prepare with Pang Tong for the return of the capital by the Han Emperor.

    When leaving, all the ministers were on their way, and Jiang Gan also wanted to go, but someone secretly stayed behind, saying that Liu Feng still had something to say to him.

    Jiang Gan stopped at the camp gate. After standing on his horse for a while, Liu Feng rode his horse back slowly. Jiang Gan stepped forward to greet him and asked, "I wonder what other orders Grand Sima has?"

    Liu Feng smiled mysteriously at him and said lightly: "Ziyi, have you forgotten the conversation you had with me before?"
