- Hanzhong City was built in the seventh year of Jian'an of the Han Empire and the second year of Tianping of the Ming Empire.
Today's Hanzhong City, under the management of Qin Yang and the Yellow Turban Army, has become like an imperial capital. All the lands in the Central Plains have been fighting for years. There were constant conquests between the Great Demon Empire and the Great Han Empire. After the Demon General Han Xin led his army to land from Songjiang, Soochow also fell into war. Fortunately, Qin Yang had already sent the great barbarian king Meng Huo to lead a hundred thousand demon army to set up an ambush in Wuji. The barbarian army and the Wu army joined forces and finally forced the demon army back to the north of the Yangtze River.
But this is so because of the reinforcements of nearly one million demon troops under Han Xin. Soochow is also facing many crises. In order to avoid the war, people from the Central Plains flocked to Hanzhong and Xichuan. Under Qin Yang's rule, the Ming Empire became increasingly prosperous.
And not long ago, the situation in the Central Plains changed again. Bai Qi, the first marshal of the demon army who was severely wounded by Qin Yang in front of Hulao Pass two years ago, is back again! This time, Bai Qi led his chariot guards, Sun Bin's Mizong Army, Lian Po's Yanling Guards, Wu Qi's Wei Wu soldiers, and Le Yi's Yanyun cavalry. A total of five elite troops raided Hulao Pass. Hulao Pass, known as the most dangerous pass in the world, fell in one day. Cao Jun's Hulao Pass garrison soldiers Guo Tu and Tian Feng were both killed in the battle.
After taking Hulao Pass, Bai Qi's army marched westward and attacked Luoyang and Chang'an. The two generals guarding Li Jue and Guo Si were killed in the battle. After that, the demon army marched westward, marched into Tianshui, and went straight to Xiliang. In the battle of Xiliang, Han Sui, the governor of Xiliang, died in the battle, and the world-famous Xiliang Iron Cavalry was destroyed. Ma Teng, the governor of Xiliang, was seriously injured and led the remaining soldiers of Xiliang to flee into Hanzhong.
From the time Bai Qi raised his troops to the capture of Xiliang, it took less than half a month. Everything happened too fast and suddenly. So much so that the two empires had no time to react. After the elite troops of the two empires were assembled, the entire north of the Yellow River. Everything is already under Bai Qi's control.
And just when the royal court of the Ming Empire was shocked by this sudden change, a man and a horse had already galloped into Hanzhong City and arrived in front of the imperial palace with the yellow scarf flag raised high.
"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty is reporting to the Prime Minister, Military Advisor Sima Yi."
"Sima Yi?" Now above the Golden Palace, Ming Emperor Qin Yang was discussing with the civil and military ministers how to deploy defenses against the demonic army in Ziwu Valley, Dingjun Mountain and other places. When he heard the name Sima Yi, Qin Yang couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly and thought to himself. "What is he doing here at this time?"
"Let him come up." Qin Yang pondered for a moment and said calmly.
"His Majesty Emperor Ming has an edict to announce that Sima Yi will be here -!" After receiving Qin Yang's order, Huangmenguan immediately turned around and shouted loudly at the entrance of the Golden Palace, the sound of which could be heard far away.
Not long after. A figure in a robe had already arrived in front of the Golden Palace. After simply dusting himself off, he walked up to the Golden Palace step by step.
"My Lord, Sima Yi, see His Majesty Emperor Ming. Long live Your Majesty, Long live. Long live!"
"Mr. Sima, please settle down." Qin Yang said lightly. At this time, he had been His Majesty the Ming Emperor for two years. As an emperor, the majesty of the nine-fifth supreme emperor was revealed inadvertently.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Sima Yi then stood up, raised his head, and secretly glanced at the young man who was less than thirty years old on the throne.
And until now. Qin Yang and the ministers also discovered it. At this moment, how can Sima Yi still have the elegant style of the past? Both his face and hair are covered with dust at this moment. The robe seemed to have been soaked with sweat and dried in the sun countless times. The color of dust was fully displayed, and the state of embarrassment increased sharply.
Qin Yang couldn't help but smile slightly when he saw this and said, "Why is Mr. Sima here?"
Sima Yi took a deep look at Qin Yang, then lowered his head and said, "Reporting to His Majesty Emperor Ming, I am here to ask for help from Your Majesty on the orders of King Wei."
"Oh? Looking for help? Is King Wei trapped?" Qin Yang asked calmly. Above the Golden Palace, the civil and military personnel of the Ming Empire were slightly moved. Since losing Luoyang and Chang'an, Cao Cao has led his army south and headed straight for Jingzhou. Could it be that Bai Qi is so fast? He has already caught up with Cao Cao?!
Sima Yi shook his head and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, King Wei is not trapped at this moment."
Qin Yang said calmly: "Since the King of Wei is not trapped, why did he come to ask for help? Could it be that Liu Bei took action against the King of Wei?"
Although Qin Yang said it casually, it was indeed a guess in his mind. After all, although Liu Bei and Cao Cao both worshiped the Emperor of Han as their leader. But Liu, Sun, and Cao had always supported their own troops and fought against each other. Now taking advantage of Cao Cao's defeat, Liu Bei may not be able to do something to add insult to injury if his head gets hot.
Sima Yi shook his head again and said: "Your Majesty, I dare not speak nonsense in front of Your Majesty. Uncle Liu Huang understands the righteousness and did not take this opportunity to fight again. Instead, he greatly helped our lord, the King of Wei."
Qin Yang narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "In that case, are you here to entertain me?"
Hearing this, Sima Yi hurriedly knelt on the golden palace with a bang and said: "Your MajestyCalm down, I have indeed come to seek help from Your Majesty. Your Majesty does not know that since the demon general Bai Qi suddenly broke through Hulao Pass this time, the King of Wei has already made a plan with Uncle Liu Huang and the King of Wu"
"Plan?!" Qin Yang's eyes flashed, and he looked at Guo Jia and others not far away, quietly waiting for Sima Yi's next words.
Sima Yi continued: "This time Bai Qi gathered five armies and captured Hulao Pass in one day. The troops were so swift and fierce that they were unstoppable. On the Jingzhou side, there was Zhang Han, the general under Demon Commander Han Xin, who led the army to watch eagerly and did not dare to move lightly. Under the crisis, our lord, King Wei, came up with a plan to retreat all our elite troops to Chang'an, then bypass Huashan Mountain and exit the Qingni Pass, and enter the boundary of Jingzhou. After entering Jingzhou, the army moved slowly to serve as bait. , The purpose is to lure Bai Qi¡¯s army to pursue, and then King Wei and Liu Huangshu will use all their elite troops to set up an ambush to surround and annihilate Bai Qi¡¯s elite, and take advantage of the situation to conquer the lost territory of Chang¡¯an and Luoyang.¡±
Qin Yang pondered for a moment, nodded, and said: "Sure enough, it's a clever plan. If Bai Qi and those five elites pursue him, they will definitely be hit hard."
Sima Yi kowtowed and said: "Your Majesty, you know this! Although this plan is wonderful, it is a sign of great danger! If we really act according to this plan, our army will be defeated. King Wei will die! By then, Jingzhou's main force will be lost. Jingzhou will lose its main force. It is bound to be impossible to preserve it. Once Jingzhou is lost, the Han Empire will be in danger! It is said that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold. If the Ming Empire does not have the barrier of the Han Empire, the next spearhead of the demon army will be aimed at your Majesty's Hanzhong!"
Qin Yang naturally understands what Sima Yi said. However, he couldn't figure out why Sima Yi was so sure. Will Cao Cao and Liu Bei be defeated in the next war?
Thinking of this, Qin Yang asked: "Mr. Sima, you said that the King of Wei will definitely lose this battle, but what is your basis?"
Sima Yi shook his head and said: "If you want to talk about specific evidence, Wei Chen can't provide it. But just three days ago, Wei Chen had a meeting with Mr. Wolong in Jingzhou. The two of us watched the sky at night. Suddenly we found that the Han Empire was in danger. So, Only then did I arrive at starry night to ask for help from Your Majesty."
"Hmph!" Hearing this, Qin Yang's face suddenly darkened, and he snorted displeasedly and said: "Sima Yi, I respect you as a talent for governing the country. But you came all the way to Hanzhong to entertain me? You and Zhuge Liang just I just looked at the stars. Do I know that you will lose? Not to mention that Zhuge Liang is now the chief counselor under Liu Bei, and his words carry a lot of weight. Even if it is you, if you step in to stop Cao Cao, it will be more than enough. Even if it is true, the two of you will This scheming guy won't handle it by himself. Instead, he comes to Hanzhong to beg me?"
Seeing Qin Yang's anger, Sima Yi couldn't help but tremble slightly. He said with a bitter face: "His Majesty Emperor Ming clearly knows that this plan was personally formulated by Uncle Liu and King Wei. And for this reason, our lord King Wei has lost all his territory and lost his troops. Uncle Liu has handed over all the defenses along the Jingzhou area to King Wu. Both sides have paid a huge price for this battle. And my lord, King Wei, is desperate and has no choice but to fight. Although Mr. Wolong and I are both counselors and important ministers, we can't stop the two lords from going their own way. . Mr. Wolong once had a rift with His Majesty, so Sima Yi traveled to Hanzhong at night and night to ask for His Majesty's rescue. Everything the minister said is true, and I ask Your Majesty to look into it carefully."
Seeing that Sima Yi was speaking truthfully, Qin Yang couldn't help but frown slightly. In the past, he didn't even care about astrology or anything like that. However, since he returned from heaven, he has understood the mystery. Now that he saw Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang, the two leading counselors in the Three Kingdoms, saying this, his heart couldn't help but move.
You must know that the consequences of Cao¡¯s army¡¯s defeat that Sima Yi just mentioned are actually not an exaggeration at all. Nowadays, the Great Demon Empire relies on its fierce and fearless demon army to dominate in terms of military strength. Prior to this, Qin Yang had formulated a good battle plan. The demon army was powerful, but it was not good at managing internal affairs. This resulted in very insufficient logistical supplies. So Qin Yang decided to keep fighting with the Demon Army. After three to five years, the demon army's logistics will be stretched thin. Without the supply of ordnance and food, they will directly lose.
"Obviously, the Demon Emperor is also aware of this. That's why they stepped up the war, hoping to use war to support war and destroy the Han Empire and the Ming Empire. But now, Cao Cao and Liu Bei are going to fight the demon army. This is completely playing into the hands of the Demon Lord. You must know that in addition to Bai Qi's troops, the Demon Lord also has several elite soldiers. Even if Bai Qi is really eliminated, I am afraid that it will not be able to shake the foundation of the Demon Lord.
Thinking of this, Qin Yang took a deep look at Sima Yi and said in a deep voice: "Since Mr. Sima's words are sincere, let me think about it. Sir, you have been tired all the way, so please go down to rest first and retire from the court."
When the civil and military officials on both sides saw what Qin Yang said, they immediately stood up. They walked towards the outside of the palace one after another, and Sima Yi also went down to rest under the guidance of a guard.
"Guo Situ, wait." Outside the Golden Palace, Guo Jia, who was now Master Situ of the Ming Empire, was chatting with the civil servants around him when he suddenly heard someone calling from behind him.
Guo Jia looked back and saw that the person greeting him was none other than Zhao Yun, the current commander of the Yellow Turban Royal Forest Army in the empire. The rest of the officialsSeeing Zhao Yun coming in person, they all greeted Guo Jia very wisely and left first.
Guo Jia also turned around, smiled at Zhao Yun and said, "General Zhao, what can I do?"
Zhao Yun smiled slightly, clasped his fists and said, "According to His Majesty's decree, at the third watch tonight, Guo Situ is invited to enter the palace together with Lord Sima Pang Pang, Lord Sikong Ma, and Lords Juxianyuan, Xi Zhicai and Jia Xu. There are five gold medals here, and when the adults arrive in front of the palace gate, someone will guide them."
Guo Jia was startled at first, then said with a grimace: "General Zhao, aren't you clearly looking for trouble for me? Do you want me to give away the gold medals of these four people?"
Zhao Yun smiled slightly and imitated Qin Yang's tone and said: "Your Majesty, Guo Jia has been pampering himself all day long and gained more than ten kilograms since he became a Situ. Now we must find more things for him to do. Otherwise, . This kid didn¡¯t die in the battle, but he died of obesity first.¡±
After saying that, Zhao Yun hurriedly explained: "These are His Majesty's exact words, Your Majesty also said. If Guo Situ doesn't want to send it"
"Okay, okay, why don't you let me go and send it off?" Guo Jia hurriedly interrupted Zhao Yun and reluctantly took the five gold medals. It would be better for him to listen less to Qin Yang's threats.
When Zhao Yun saw this, he smiled and clasped his fists and said: "In that case. Then there is no need to do it. In fact, what your Majesty said is that if you don't want to give it away, then the general will do it for you"
"I'll wipe it" Guo Jia was startled, looking at Zhao Yunfei's retreating back, and shook his head helplessly. It seemed that my brain was about to get rusty. I didn't expect that I would be tricked by the honest Zhao Yun today. When he thought of using his brain, Guo Jia lowered his head and looked at the five gold medals in his hand. A glint of excitement suddenly flashed in his eyes. It¡¯s been two years, and it seems that His Majesty can¡¯t sit still anymore?
Midnight, the palace. In an extremely secluded courtyard, a scribe in a robe stood at the door, looking up at the stars in the sky quietly.
This is the room where Sima Yi stayed. According to the rules, Sima Yi served as an envoy from another country. You cannot live in the palace. But Qin Yang made an exception this time and secretly ordered people to arrange for Sima Yi to rest here.
Sima Yi was so smart that he understood Qin Yang¡¯s intention almost immediately. After washing up, he stood in the courtyard. Wait quietly.
"It's so late, Mr. Sima, why aren't you still sleeping? Mr. Qin Yang admires your concern for the country and the people!" Just when Sima Yi raised his head to look at the stars for the fifth time, a faint voice suddenly sounded, Outside the courtyard door, two figures in casual clothes walked slowly.
Sima Yi smiled slightly when he heard this, and hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Sima Yi respectfully welcomes His Majesty Emperor Ming."
"Okay, don't use the tricks in the Golden Palace in private. I hate this kind of red tape the most. Guan Hai, you are guarding the door. No one is allowed to come within fifty meters of this courtyard." Qin Yang Smiling and waving to Sima Yi, he walked into the courtyard calmly. But the burly man who had been following Qin Yang like a shadow stopped at the entrance of the courtyard. His big eyes flashed with a faint cold light in the dark night, and he looked around vigilantly.
In the hall of the house, Sima Yi had already prepared two tea cups and cooked a pot of tea. After Qin Yang sat down casually, Sima Yi smiled and said, "Your Majesty, how do you plan to deal with what I said during the day?"
Qin Yang smiled slightly, stared into Sima Yi's eyes, and said lightly: "I just want to ask you, is there any moisture in what you said during the day? I think you should be able to understand what I mean."
Sima Yi's expression tightened and he said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, even if Sima Yi had the courage, he would not dare to plot against your Majesty Zhuge Liang. What happened this time is absolutely true. And now, if Zhuge Liang plots against Your Majesty, he is plotting against him. By myself."
Qin Yang nodded, took a sip of tea and said, "Even so, in your opinion, what should I do?"
Sima Yi pondered for a moment and said: "In my opinion, Your Majesty has two choices. But both choices are based on the premise that the Han Empire cannot be destroyed."
Qin Yang nodded and said, "Let's talk about it."
"Yes." Sima Yi accepted the order and said: "The first option is that your majesty can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. When the demon army and the soldiers of the Han Empire are both killed, send troops to attack. In this way, if you win, you can weaken the enemy. The strength of the big man can bring the land of Chang'an into his arms. However, doing so requires taking huge risks."
Qin Yang said: "How big is the risk?"
Sima Yi said: "First, the Demon Army has more than just one elite soldier, Bai Qi. And according to the information I have received, in addition to the two elite soldiers, Bai Qi and Han Xin, there are at least two extremely powerful combat forces in the Demon Army." . Once our army rushes out and wants to gain the advantage of the fishermen, the demon army suddenly attacks in large numbers. It's unclear who will win and who will lose. Once our army is defeated, I'm afraid"
Speaking of this, Sima Yi paused. Qin Yang must also understand the consequences of defeat. After seeing Qin Yang nodding, he continued.Continued: "Second, even if our army wins, it will inevitably become the enemy of the Han Dynasty. Now, the territory of the Demon Army is already bordering the Ming Empire. If the Demon Army devotes all its main force to attack our Hanzhong. Presumably the Han Empire will not only I will try my best to help you, but I will also help you in my own way.¡±
Qin Yang nodded and smiled: "That's right. I guess the second option you want to talk about is that we send troops now to help the Han annihilate the demon army, right?"
Sima Yi nodded and said: "Your Majesty is aware of this. I believe that not only do these troops have to come out, but they also have to move quickly! We must wipe out all Bai Qi's troops before the Demon Emperor's reinforcements arrive!"
¡¡
??Midnight, Hanzhong City, Ming Empire Palace, outside another courtyard. Under the guidance of a personal guard, five figures walked through the hall and came to a courtyard.
When the guards retreated and the five of them were about to enter the courtyard, they heard a chuckle from the courtyard: "You guys are too punctual, aren't you? It's the third watch, so don't bring those who came earlier. . Come in, I have already had a nap. In a while, these delicacies will probably be cold"
When the five people outside the hospital heard the sound, they smelled the aroma wafting from the room. Their eyes lit up at the same time and they all looked at each other. In each other's eyes, they all saw a long-lost fighting spirit. - Didn't finish reading?
