Conquering Myriad Worlds from the Mythical Three Kingdoms

Chapter 166 Yuan Shu Returns to the North
Sima Yi's plan is very simple, that is to use people's hearts to kick Yuan Shu into the abyss.

When a person is strongest, it is also when he is weakest.

It was like the straw that broke the camel's back.

Although Yuan Shu has been strengthened, in Sima Yi's eyes, this kind of strengthening is just a point that can be used.

You only need to send someone to fight Yuan Shu and let Yuan Shu show his confidence, then Yuan Shu will accumulate momentum to the limit.

And when the limit is reached, Sima Yi's spiritual talent will kick Yuan Shu into the bottomless abyss.

What people fear most is not a strong enemy. When facing a strong enemy, many people can rise up and resist, and the more they fight, the more courageous they become.

What people are most afraid of is weakness. This is also the case with many loyal ministers and good generals.

It is very difficult to break a force that has been getting stronger, because in the process of becoming stronger, as long as I am still a human being, I will have a hope. At least I can still become stronger now, maybe I will be able to become stronger. Change the current situation.

Before this blessing fades, any army will not collapse because they can only see the present, see themselves, and know that they can continue to grow stronger, have hope, and have a future.

And Sima Yi wanted to take advantage of this point, the steel was easy to break, and when Yuan Shu was inspired to the top, it was the moment when Yuan Shu completely lost control of the army.

Winning is not arrogant, this is a rare thing.

Once the situation reversed, Yuan Shu would definitely be defeated in an instant.

Sima Yi's spiritual talent can stably kick Yuan Shu down. This is the stage Sima Yi prepared for himself, to show his advantages, wisdom and talent as much as possible.

"Zhongda, you are indeed a genius!" Mu Yi looked at Sima Yi in admiration.

He doesn't think there's anything wrong with Sima Yi's behavior of relying on his own ability to make plans. Talent itself is the embodiment of one's own ability.

"Before I thought you might not be able to beat Kong Ming, but now I don't think so. Maybe you can really surpass Kong Ming?" Mu Yi looked at Sima Yi uncertainly and said.

When the two sides stand on the same starting line, he really can't say for sure about the future achievements of the two.

But this is a good thing, Zhuge Liang needs an opponent, only continuous competition can promote growth, and Sima Yi has this qualification.

Sima Yi raised his eyebrows again. He didn't expect that after making such a plan, in Mu Yi's heart, he would become equal to Zhuge Liang from being inferior to Zhuge Liang.

This made Sima Yi's heart gradually rise to be competitive, but he didn't show it, he just suppressed it in his heart.

He knew that there must be a reason for Mu Yi's evaluation, so he was looking forward to seeing Zhuge Liang in the future.

"Let's do it, Zhongda. From now on, everyone will obey your command, including me!" Mu Yi smiled and handed over the commanding power to Sima Yi.

Sima Yi's plan was perfect, and Huang Tianji's remote analysis of its feasibility had a nearly [-]% success rate.

This success rate was enough for Mu Yi to trust Sima Yi.

"Here!" Sima Yi left with the order, Mu Yi would suppress Ping Yu here, and Sima Yi organized the manpower to complete the task of luring the enemy.

After Sima Yi selected a group of private soldiers from aristocratic families and mixed them with captives from the previous cities, he asked people from various aristocratic families to serve as generals, and to undertake the task of deceiving the enemy by deceiving defeat.

Sima Yi didn't care whether these people were really defeated or faked, he just needed a few people to serve as stepping stones for Yuan Shu.

Moreover, the first person Sima Yi approached was the Chen family. Originally, Mu Yi did not visit the Chen family, and the Chen family did not visit Mu Yi either. This was a very dangerous signal.

Now that Sima Yi came to him, no matter what Chen Qun thought in his heart, he could only hand over the manpower to Sima Yi.

"Patriarch, are we going to let the Sima family and the Xun family step on us?" The Chen family asked Chen Qun angrily.

Sima Yi's high-spirited appearance made him feel a great insult.

The Sima family and the Chen family can be regarded as breaking the relationship between the bones and the tendons. You Sima Yi is now the first to take the brunt of the Chen family, because you plan to use the Chen family as a stepping stone for your promotion.

"It's only temporary. I didn't expect that the Xun family and the Sima family would be so lowly and famous!" Chen Qun was also a little angry.

Sima Yi's behavior was equivalent to slapping him hard in the face, and he had no way to fight back.

"Go, send someone to contact Yuan Benchu. Since he, Mu Zhengping, has no eyes, don't blame me for finding another master!"

Chen Qun's face was gloomy. He didn't want to place a bet forcefully. Looking at the situation, Yuan Shao is not as good as Mu Yi.

Although Jizhou is good, it also depends on where it is compared with. Now Qingzhou, Xuzhou, and Yuzhou are not inferior to Jizhou.

As for Youzhou, a place of pure bitterness and coldness, it is even more distracting to prevent the barbarians from going south.

From two states to three and a half states, no matter how you look at it, Mu Yi has the advantage.

But now Chen Qun also realized that he had been trampled under by the surprise of the Sima family and the Xun family. Even if he relied on his ability to rise to the top in the future, he would not be able to turn around and suppress these two families completely.

Although he often regards himself as the head of the first family in Yingchuan, in fact the strength of the three of them is quite similar.

So if you want to get ahead, you have to find another way.

Selling Mu Yi to Yuan Shao is also a good choice.

"Tsk tsk tsk, Chen Qun, oh Chen Qun, you are still bound by the family!"

Jia Xu, who was closely monitoring Chen Qun, laughed. It was good news for him to get the information that the Chen family started to contact Yuan Shao.

Killing chickens to scare monkeys naturally has a serious name.

Collaborating with the enemy is a very good title.

What's more, undercover traitors can sometimes exert greater anti-sabotage effects.

He has been busy with these things these days, and his mind is basically occupied by this. After all, it is still very difficult to hide it from Chen Qun and the Chen family and achieve all-round surveillance.

So much so that he really didn't see through Sima Yi's serial tricks before, but now that the matter on Chen Qun's side has been resolved, and looking back at Sima Yi, he immediately felt amazed.

"Hey, I didn't expect that I have to work harder when I am old. It really makes people feel uncomfortable!"

Jia Xu shook his head and took out a copy of Sun Tzu's Art of War from his pocket and read it.

This thing was originally copied by hand, and it was a treasure of the Xun family. Xun Yu dedicated this thing to Mu Yi. After Mu Yi read it, he handed it to Jia Xu.

Originally, Jia Xu only held the mentality of appreciating, but now that he was stepped on by Sima Yi, he had to show a learning attitude to study it again.

He just wanted to paddle with his thighs in his arms, not to be stepped on and lie flat under his feet.

So Jia Xu decided to start with military strategy and study hard to strengthen his military literacy.

After all, Xun Yu and Zhuge Liang have basically stepped on him in terms of governing the country and the state. If he is going to be stepped down by Sima Yi and the like in the military, then he, the number one (first) adviser of Mu Yi in name, will lose face .

Yuan Shu's actions were very fast. It only took a week to deal with the troubles in Jingbei, and then led the army towards his hometown.

During this period, Mu Yi also tried some methods to attack Pingyu, but all failed in the end.

The bombardment cannon that roared every day would not cause much psychological pressure on Pingyu City, after all, people's adaptability is terrible.

With the roar every day, the defenders in Pingyu City and even the common people have become accustomed to this roar, and the psychological pressure when they first saw it disappeared without a trace.

They have also realized that Mu Yi outside the city has nothing to do with them. As long as they continue to resist, they will definitely be able to wait for Yuan Shu to come back.

Moreover, an immortal has already sent the letter back to Pingyu for Yuan Shu, and Qiao Rui knew that if he stood firm for a while, Yuan Shu would come back, and the crisis would be resolved by itself.

Returning to the north, Yuan Shu encountered Sima Yi's ambush. In order to strive for truth, every ambush was arranged by Sima Yi himself, just to give Yuan Shu the illusion that he had truly defeated the Qingzhou Army.

"Arrangement!"

Sima Yi roared loudly, the team behind quickly cut through, and the foggy aura rose up, covering all the soldiers under him.

Sima Yi did not have Xun You's ability to directly eliminate the sense of existence, but the ability to hide his figure has been explored since ancient times. As a big family, the Sima family naturally has more than one inheritance of the ultimate Xuanxiang.

What he is using now is an ancient ultimate Xuan Xiang, a formation that can directly fog up and block sight.

"Is it the ultimate Xuan Xiang?" Yuan Shu glanced at the foggy formation and frowned. He also knew the effect of Xuan Xiang.

"Yang Hong, Yan Xiang, can you see through it?" Yuan Shu looked at his only two civil servants with spiritual talent.

"I can't see through!"

Yang Hong and Yan Xiang looked at it for a long time, but they couldn't see anything in the end. Not every counselor has the deduction ability of Xu Shu and Jia Xu.

In addition, Sima Yi used Gu Xuanxiang, and the two of them had never seen it before, so naturally they couldn't see through it.

"My lord, don't worry! Left and right are just a death row!" Seeing Yuan Shu's displeasure, Yang Hong quickly added an explanation.

Although they can't see through it, they have a solution.

If you can't solve the problem, then get rid of the person who caused the problem.

They cannot technically crack formations, but they can brute force them.

"My lord, you can send troops to test twice, find the door of death, go straight into the formation, and the formation will be broken!" Yang Hong said simply.

The reason is that although the defense of the dead gate is the strongest, the mobilization of the dead gate is the most troublesome, so as long as it is fast enough, it can be directly inserted into the formation before the dead gate is closed, and the formation is directly disrupted, and the formation will be abolished , the blessing brought by it immediately faded away.

This is the danger of the death formation, which is never as threatening as the living formation, and it is easy to be abolished and blessed.

Seeing that the expression on Yuan Shu's face was still not very satisfied, Yan Xiang cupped his hands and said.

"My lord, you can also send people to attack head-on. Although this formation is wonderful, its scale is only about [-]. Our army doesn't need any scruples, just push it flat!"

Yan Xiang's suggestion eased Yuan Shu's expression a little. He wanted to teach Mu Yi a harsh lesson and kick Mu Yi out of Yuzhou completely.

Probing and then cracking, that kind of petty approach is not in his mind at all, he just wants to use people to push.

"Ji Ling! Zhang Xun! Take your people and bully them!" Yuan Shu ordered loudly.

Sima Yi in the formation frowned, Yuan Shu actually chose to attack head-on. How should I put it, this approach is not smart, but it is the most suitable for Yuan Shu's army at the moment.

Being able to maximize the advantages of Yuan Shu's army allowed Yuan Shu's army to more firmly establish the belief that a large number of people is a strong one. .

"Alright, this way it will be faster, and the number of people who will be sacrificed will be much less!" Sima Yi sneered.

"As soon as the formation breaks up, retreat and run away immediately, understand?" Sima Yi explained to the aristocratic family beside him.

"I understand!" Li Zheng nodded, he was from Shanyang, Yanzhou, and he was from the same family as Li Dian.

After Cao Cao's defeat, he obeyed the family's call and joined Mu Yi, which can be regarded as atonement for the family to some extent.

That's why he took this mission. Even though he knew that accidents might happen during the hunt, he still chose to take the mission for the sake of his family.

"Clan brother, it's up to you this time!"

Li Zheng pinched the amulet on his chest, thinking silently, there is a Taoist priest Li Jin in the Li family in Shanyang, whose level is almost at the level of internal energy separation. He usually told them a lot of things and gave them some advice. amulet.

This is also one of his reliance on this adventure. He wants to stand out from the crowd if he tries to change his bicycle into a motorcycle.

"Shoot the arrow!" Ji Ling's roar sounded, and Sima Yi left quietly, and he had to rectify the second line of defense.

Countless arrows shot towards Li Zheng's large formation covered in mist.

"Dinglingling!" A large rain of arrows only resulted in very little damage.

Few soldiers died under the rain of arrows. Although the fog is more of a blinding effect, it also has a certain protective effect.

In addition, in order to be like that, Sima Yi equipped these soldiers with wooden shields and armor, so the mere rain of arrows is naturally not a problem.

"Attack!" Ji Ling and Zhang Xun roared, each leading [-] soldiers to attack from the left and right sides.

"Arrows and counterattack!"

Li Zheng was very calm, he knew that he would definitely lose, but Sima Yi made it very clear that he had to cause some damage.

The crossbow bolts of several bed crossbows directly pierced several soldiers around Zhang Xun, making Zhang Xun break out in a cold sweat.

I didn't expect that in this fog-shrouded formation, there is such a ghost thing as a bed crossbow. Even if the inner qi separates from the body and hits it head-on, it will be severely injured.

"Hmph, Mu Zhengping knows how to play tricks like this!"

Yuan Shu's expression brightened. Mu Yi had fewer people than him. This was factual information. Therefore, the more intense the counterattack of Mu Yi's ambush, the more real it was for Yuan Shu.

At the same time, it also showed that Mu Yi was not sure about confronting him head-on, so he could only delay him in this way.

"Struggle, Mu Zhengping, you will pay the price for attacking Yuzhou!"
