The capital of Liangguo, Jicheng.
December.
The west wind is fierce, the snow is fluttering, in the cold winter, the Wei army has been overwhelmed by the city, Cao Wei, the prince of Cao Wei, Cao Ang personally led the main force of soldiers and horses to the south, and the soldiers came to the city.
The Wei army and the Liang army faced each other in front of the city, and the battle was about to break out, and the atmosphere became more and more tense, but the tragic battle did not come as scheduled.
The Wei army seemed to be besieging the city, and did not launch any siege for several days, which made the generals of the Liang army in the city puzzled and a little uneasy.
Outside the city.
Under the night, the snow shrouded the tents of the Wei army.
"Is there any news from Pound?"
In the main tent, all the generals gathered, above the first place, the prince Cao Ang's handsome face was reflected under the oil lamp, and his expression looked a little grim: "What kind of attitude is this Ma Chao, if you really can't persuade it, let's start fighting as soon as possible, if we wait like this, the weather will get colder and colder, and once we enter the most severe winter, it will not be conducive to our siege battle."
"Prince, there are still three days left for us to meet Pound, so we will wait for another three days" Zhang Liao stood up, arched his hand at Cao Ang, and replied in a deep voice: "If there is no news from him after three days, we will storm Jicheng, Jicheng is very difficult to fight, according to our scout report, Ma Chao has hoarded a lot of grain and grass in the city, enough for him to support a year and a half, whether this battle can be fought or not, we must believe Pound" "General, in fact, I don't want to fight, Han Sui surrendered, Ma Dai took it, if Ma Chao can surrender, Xiliang will be merged into our Great Wei without blood, but now time is pressing, my father has sent a letter yesterday, so that we must complete the battle of Liangzhou within the end of the year" Cao Ang sighed and said, "In recent days, Wu Jun has been a little nervous, in Jingzhou.
Xuzhou, Qingzhou, Jizhou, and Bingzhou all showed signs of large-scale military mobilization.
Although many people in the DPRK and China think that now that the Wu army has just taken Bashu, the soldiers are tired and tired, and they are unable to fight a decisive battle against us.
The reason why they mobilized their troops and horses was just a bluff and wanted to recover the defeat of the annexed state.
But my father was uneasy, and he never dared to underestimate Sun Zhongmou, and now that our Great Wei heavy troops have been pressing on Xiliang, it will make us not confident enough to face the Wu army."
"Prince, please rest assured, as long as General Pound successfully persuades him to surrender, we will not only be able to end the battle at the end of the year."
Guo Jia's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he said coldly: "You can also go north and merge with the state, and take the entire land of the merger."
If this battle could not be fought, the Wei army would not need to rest and recuperate, and a part of the troops and horses would be sent north.
With the distance between Liangzhou and Bingzhou, it is not difficult to take the merger from Beidi County.
So he would rather spend a little more time than fight this battle, it is not difficult to defeat Ma Chao, but the casualties paid must be very large.
Can you not fight, or not fight.
"Let's hope" Hearing this, Cao Ang nodded, looked at Sima Yi, and was silent for a while.
He took out a holy decree from his long sleeve and handed it to him: "Master Sima, this is the holy decree given to you by your father, and your father said it."
I'm going to burn it when I'm done."
"Thank you, Your Majesty" Sima Yi stood up, knelt down on his knees, arched his hands upward, and respectfully accepted the order.
This decree will be burned, and it will not see the light at that time, because it is only a secret decree.
Cao Cao came to such a will at this time, nothing more than to appease his heart.
"General Sima, Zuo Weiwei is one of the twelve guards of the main force of the Great Wei, none of us want it to have any changes and affect the combat effectiveness, you can do it" Cao Ang's eyes moved slightly, and he said with some knocking.
As the heir of Cao Wei, if he talks about fighting, he may have only learned Cao Cao's three or five things, but when it comes to employing people, he has inherited seventy or eighty percent of Cao Cao's ability, which is also one of the reasons why Cao Cao made him the crown prince.
For Sima Yi, he wants to use it and press it, as Guo Jia said, Sima Yi's ambition is too big, once he doesn't suppress it, sooner or later he will fight back.
"Please rest assured that the prince" Sima Yi took a deep breath, calmed down, and said firmly: "Within a month, I will definitely be able to restore Zuo Weiwei's original combat effectiveness, and I will definitely not let the crown prince and His Majesty down."
"So good" Cao Ang showed a comfortable smile: "Go ahead, as long as you take care of Zuo Weiwei, you will be a great success in this battle."
"Yes" Sima Yi walked out of the main camp, immediately turned on his horse, and rode back to Zuo Weiwei's barracks.
"Strategist, can this Sima Yi stabilize Zuo Weiwei" Cao Ang looked at Sima Yi's departing back and asked in a low voice.
"Zuo Weiwei is basically a son of Guanzhong, and only he can hold it down" Guo Jia smiled slightly, and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, you don't have to worry about Zuo Weiwei, he also has to live is merit, if he can't suppress it, it's a crime, you just need to control him."
"My father once said that this Sima Zhongda is too ambitious, and he is a little embarrassed to use it" Cao Ang thought about it and was a little puzzled: "But I have been in contact with him for a while, and I have not found this person's recklessness and unruliness, but I feel that he is a little obedient and obedient, and he is also respectful to my Great Wei."
"His Royal Highness the Prince, this is the gap between you and Your Majesty, what you can see is only the surface, what Your Majesty can see is the human heart" Zhang Liao said expressionlessly: "In this regard, you still have to learn from Your Majesty" "The general's reminder, I understand" Cao Ang nodded sincerely, he had a good point, and he could listen to the harsh admonitions.
After Sima Yi returned to the barracks, he immediately asked his confidant Yang Xiu to come to discuss: "This is Your Majesty's holy decree, promote me to be General Zuo Weiwei, you are a military advisor, and control Zuo Weiwei."
"Your Majesty's decree came so quickly" Yang Xiu looked at it, and his face was slightly moved: "Now that Wei Duan has not heard the news of his death, isn't he afraid of the cold hearts of some families in Guanzhong?"
"This is just a secret decree, he used it to calm our hearts, and pushed Wei Duan out Although we handled it, it was also his meaning, he was worried that we would be afraid of unloading the mill and killing the donkey, so he gave a secret decree exceptionally, which means that we can rest assured that we will clean up Wei Duan's family" Sima Yi burned the holy decree with the flame of the candlestick, and then said with a sneer: "And I am sure that this matter has spread in Guanzhong, but the rumor will turn into the two of us pushing Wei Duan to death in order to seize power, and we will become the enemies of some families in Guanzhong."
"It turns out that he wants to divide the unity of our Guanzhong family" Yang Xiu realized: "Let our Guanzhong family mess up" "Yes, but we don't have a choice.
Even if it's such an outcome, we all have to bear it."
Sima Yi nodded: "At this time, if we can't take the initiative to hold the military power of Zuo Weiwei's tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, our Guanzhong family will be completely deprived of military power, and there will be no military power."
We don't have the power to speak, and even if we are divided internally, we must take this military power."
"Your Majesty's strategy of killing two birds with one stone, the means are absolutely amazing" Yang Xiu said with some appreciation: "Let us willingly become his knife" "Your Majesty's methods are indeed powerful" Sima Yi's eyes narrowed slightly, and he couldn't help but sigh: "At the beginning, we thought that we would be able to worry about holding Guanzhong.
It's too beautiful, and the wishful thinking is now all in vain, maybe we were wrong at the beginning, if the Son of Heaven died that year, if I endured my breath and continued to keep my head and not show my edge, maybe things would have been different."

After the death of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, he saw that this would be a troubled situation, so he gave up Taoguang and raised obscurity.
The boy went out of the mountain, and his edge was exposed.
However, there are too many capable people in the world, and Cao Wei is also a talented general, he will be guarded against if he does too much, and he can't get ahead if he does too little, which can't help but lead to a dilemma now.
However, he is also a tenacious person, and he is not discouraged: "Dezu, no matter what, now we can only guarantee that the Guanzhong family will support us as the core."
"I understand" Yang Xiu nodded. said: "I will personally go to persuade my father, now our Yang family and Sima Yi are already one glory and one loss, and there are several families in Guanzhong."
The Hadong Wei clan is already towards Your Majesty, as long as the Hanoi Sima and Hongnong Yang clan are united, most of them will be on our side" "Thank you" Sima Yi breathed a sigh of relief, he was afraid that there would be problems with the Hongnong Yang family, and only with Yang Xiu's guarantee could the two families continue to cooperate, he then asked, "That's right."
Among Zuo Weiwei, how is the general of Wei Duan's family cleaning up?"
"According to your order, all the Wei family's homes have basically been swept clean, and a few soldiers who are loyal to Wei Duan who insist on it are also dead, and now the army's morale is still unstable, which will take time to transition" Yang Xiu said: "After all, Wei Duan has a lot of prestige in this soldier and horse, for a while, we can't sweep away his influence, we have to come step by step, but as long as the news of his death comes, we want to control this army of soldiers and horses will be much smoother, and now there is no news of his death, that is, Ma Chao has not done it yet, will there be an accident?"
"Probably not" Sima Yi looked at the snowy day outside the camp, and said in a deep voice: "The revenge of killing his father, Ma Chao will do it regardless of whether he surrenders or not, and it should be done at this time."
The night is cold and the west wind is dashing.
And located on the side of Jicheng, is a vast mountain, this piece of mountains lingering, as if a natural barrier in the left wing of the Jicheng.
On the mountain road filled with cold and cold, thousands of Wei soldiers appeared one by one with tung oil torches, and marched forward with heavy steps.
"Sons, speed up, you must enter the city before dawn" Wei Duan didn't know that death had favored him, and he was still attacking Jicheng with great interest.
"General, it's too cold this day, and the road is too difficult to walk, why don't you let the sons and daughters take a break" Captain Wei Hao said softly to Wei Duan.
Although they are cavalry, the mountain road is difficult to walk, it is still a snowy day, and they have been circling in this deep mountain for several days, which is really a little demoralized.
"Nope" Wei Duan said: "We have passed the two ears of the peak, as long as we cross the mountain stream in front, we can enter Jicheng, now we are in the range of the sentry of Jicheng, will be found at any time, and want to surprise attack, night attack is the best, it will be dawn in two hours, time is too late, the attack must be started before tonight" "But we are walking in the wind and snow, and the physical exertion of the soldiers is too great, which will greatly weaken our combat effectiveness," Wei Hao said.
"Insist on insisting" Wei Duan said expressionlessly: "We are cavalry, only sixty percent of the combat effectiveness, plus the effect of the surprise attack, we can break through the city" "Yes," Wei Hao nodded helplessly.
This group of soldiers and horses continued to advance, although the number of soldiers and horses was only 5,000, but on the narrow mountain road, it was like a fire dragon, winding forward.
Enter the last mountain stream.
This is a mountain stream with a line of sky, as long as you cross this mountain stream, you will enter Jicheng, and there is no city wall in front.
It's a hillside, perfect for a charge.
"Sons, work hard, as long as we enter the city and open the city gate, we will be the siege of this battle.
It will be appreciated by His Majesty, "Wei Duan boosted morale and took the lead."
What he didn't know was that tens of thousands of elite Xiliang Iron Riders had already been on both sides of the mountain stream, waiting condescendingly for a long time.
"I didn't lie to you," Pound said.
"It's indeed Wei Duan" Ma Chao's face was expressionless, and his eyes were cold: "Cao Mengde can push Wei Duan out, aren't you afraid that one day he will push you out and send you to death, such a monarch, how can you let me trust?"
"Huh" Pound smiled, smiling brightly: "No one asked you to trust, I just let you live" "Surrender to him, can I survive?"
"Yes" "You're so sure" "After the Battle of Hanoi.
I've been thinking about a question, how to deal with the relationship between the monarch and the minister, I just believe in Ma Teng too much, and I will end up being abandoned."
Pound seemed to be talking to himself, but his voice was very loud: "As a result, I got an answer, for a king, the courtiers and generals he wants are all valuable to exist, you have value, you can live" "Ling Ming, I don't believe Cao Wei.
But I want to believe you, I hope you're right" Ma Chao glanced at Pang De deeply, and finally took a deep breath and made a decision in his heart.
He rode out.
In front of the ten thousand armies, he raised the war spear in his direct hand, and then shouted loudly, and ordered to the generals: "Sons, kill" Woohoo Under the cold night, a torch stood up in the face of the mountain stream.
The firelight had already reflected half of the sky, and the Wei army under the mountain stream was panicked at once.
"There are ambushes here" "Where are the soldiers and horses?"
"Is it Liangjun?"
The Wei army on the mountain stream road was frightened by the figures on both sides.
"Ambush" Wei Duan raised his head, his eyes looked at the dense figure condescendingly, and his heart was as cold as water.
"Smash" Stone after stone fell down, 5,000 Wei troops, one of them had been damaged more than 1,000 under the face, and the others were also scurrying everywhere and could not form an army.
"Bow and Arrow Kill" Under the second round of long-range attack, more than half of the Wei army was damaged, and the only surviving Wei soldiers had basically lost their fighting spirit.
This first battle came too suddenly, and the location here was too suitable for an ambush, so they had no chance to resist at all.
"There will be an ambush here" Wei Duan looked at the sudden ambush, a little incredulous.
"Wei Duan, we haven't seen each other for a long time, but you still remember me Ma Chao" After Ma Chao's two consecutive rounds of long-range attacks, he took tens of thousands of Xiliang iron horses and began to charge down, with a surging momentum, and went straight to Wei Duan.
"Ma Chao" Wei Duan was terrified.
"If you kill my father, I will behead you today to honor the spirit of my father in heaven, and kill not one of them."

Ma Chao's murderous military order was faithfully carried out by the soldiers of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry.
A bloody killing began to be staged, and in the face of tens of thousands of the most elite iron cavalry in Xiliang, the remaining Wei troops did not escape even one of them, and none of them were killed.
Mountains of corpses and rivers of blood "Dead" Ma slashed with a large spear, cutting Wei Duan's head directly, blood splattered three feet, he jumped up in the air and grabbed Wei Duan's head.
"Father, you died at his hands, I have avenged you, and it is up to your heart what you want to do in the future, rest in peace."
Ma Chao raised his head to the sky and roared, and his voice echoed among the mountains with a strong aura.
Pang De, who was riding a horse on the hill, looked at Ma Chao's tall figure, and a bright smile appeared on his face: "Meng Qi, you have surrendered after all, it seems that you and my brother don't have to fight on the battlefield."
