Sima Yi's Three Kingdoms Collection Collection

Chapter 249 Sweeping out the rebel General Meng Da (4)
"This... the governor's actions of 'before approval' and 'beheading before playing', I am afraid that it is not in line with the court's etiquette. It is really inappropriate!" Xia Houru had received the secret instructions of Emperor Wen Cao Pi and Taiwei Huaxin early on. , is specially responsible for monitoring Sima Yi's extraordinary actions-today, seeing that he actually "worships the table, cuts first and plays later", it seems that he is out of line, and he can't help but stop it.

Sima Yi didn't talk to him too much, his eyes flicked across his face like a knife's edge - he stretched out his hand and slowly pulled out a two-foot-eight-inch long two-foot-eight-inch long sword from his waist sheath, and held it in his hand : The knife is narrow and long like a crescent moon, and the body of the white knife is inlaid with seven gemstones of different light colors, including blue, red, yellow, blue, black, purple, and green, which are like the Big Dipper, shining brightly.Upon closer inspection, this knife exudes an inexplicable elegant and heavy atmosphere throughout its body and exterior, which is daunting.

He slowly held the treasured sword across his chest, and said respectfully: "Do you know this sword? This sword is the ancient magic weapon 'Nine Lights Sword' personally presented by Emperor Taizu Wu when the governor was born. It has been with the Governor to deal with the Central Plains for nearly 50 years——Today, the Governor respectfully enshrines this knife and decides to immediately send troops to punish the traitor Meng Da with the responsibility of taking care of his life and assisting the government. Those who refuse to follow the order will be dealt with like this!"

Before he could finish his sentence, he waved the "Jiuyao Knife" in the air, and a cold light flashed - with a sound of "cha", the desk in front of him was instantly chopped off by a corner of his knife!
When Xia Houru saw it, he couldn't help being terrified - this Sima Yi was always kind and friendly when dealing with people, but he didn't expect him to be so majestic and stern when he made a decision today, awe-inspiring and inviolable!It seems that it was not without reason that Emperor Xian and Taiwei Hua harbored secret suspicions towards him... His overbearing arrogance is really unacceptable.

Seeing that Xia Houru was stunned by himself, Sima Yi put away the frosty look on his face, slowed down his tone slightly, and said eloquently: "The governor also knows that what General Xiahou said is caring. The meaning of the governor's rest and safety is very sincere. I would like to thank you for this. After the traitor Meng Da is defeated, the governor will bear the responsibility of "before the approval, kill first and then play". Everything is yours Nothing to do."

His words reached such a point that Xia Houru had no words to refute, so he arched his hands together and said: "The governor is concerned about public affairs and forgets selfishness, his righteousness is awe-inspiring, his subordinates should admire him, he will obey everything, and will never disobey. "

After hearing what he said, Sima Yi nodded in satisfaction.He put down the "Nine Luminaries Knife", grabbed the command quiver, and began to issue orders without hesitation: "General Xiahou, you will lead ten thousand tigers and leopards to the south at high speed, go to Dangyang County to join the infantry of the governor Pei Qian, and then go west. Enter the Shennong Mountains, guard the wooden barrier, and block Wu Lu's rescue route to the new city in the north!"

"Wu Lu? Meng Da colluded with Wu Lu?" Xia Houru was taken aback.

Sima Yi glanced at him, and said calmly: "According to the secret report from Pei Qian from Jiangling: Hundreds of warships from Eastern Wu are gathering towards Xiling recently. Isn't this echoing Meng Dayao, and why? If we land in Xiling, we must go to Mengda from Mulansai! Therefore, our army must prepare troops here to prevent it."

After hearing this, Xia Houru was a little unwilling: "I would like to report to the governor, I am willing to lead [-] cavalry as your forerunner to go straight to Xincheng County, rather than leaving my army in the scattered land of Nanjun!"

"General Xiahou, the governor sent you to Mulansai to hold guard. There are actually two reasons: Xincheng County is located in high mountains and surrounded by water on three sides. The second wooden barrier is by no means a "land of scattered in Nanjun", it is the necessary fortress for Wu Lu to go north to support Mengda. If you and Pei Qian can hold it firmly, for my great Wei It is truly a miraculous achievement! The governor will definitely ask for your merit at that time! How about it?"

"The last general will be taught, and I will follow Jun's order." Xia Houru was convinced when he heard it, and finally stepped forward respectfully, took the arrow and retreated into the class.

"Zhou Tai listened to the order - you have been investigating the southwest area for a long time, and you should know the key points of the situation in Xincheng County. The governor specially appointed you and Niu Jin as the vanguard generals, and led the [-] advance team to serve as me. Advance the army, take the nearest shortcut, lead the way to Xincheng County first, clear the way for our army to meet the mountains, build bridges when encountering water, and break out a road to victory!"

Under the surprised and jealous gazes of the generals under the tent, Zhou Tai put down the writing brush in his hand from the seat on the side seat for a moment of surprise, stood up suddenly, and tried his best to suppress the boiling blood in his chest, slightly He replied in a trembling voice: "Sub... this subordinate obeys!"

Sima Yi smiled encouragingly at him, and said to Niu Heng: "Niu Zhonglang, you immediately lead [-] people who dare to die, and take the shortest shortcut to go directly to Weixing County where Shen Yi is, and work together with him." Guard the 'First Gate of the Southwest Gate' of my Great Wei—be vigilant and guard against Zhuge Liang's attack from the west!"

"The last general takes orders!" Niu Heng clasped his fists together, took a step forward and received the command arrow.

Finally, Sima Yi stretched out his hand to invite Liang Ji, handed him a letter and a kit, and said, "Liang Canjun, you should bring this governor's handwritten letter to Meng Da and the brochure containing this governor's 'delay strategy'." Bag, after the current meeting is over, go to see Meng Da quickly. In the middle of the process, you open the bag again, read the secret plan set up by the governor, and then act according to the plan without making any mistakes!"

When Liang Ji stepped forward to take the letter and the kit, Sima Yi suddenly reached out to give him a firm grip, and stared at him deeply: "If Meng Da becomes suspicious, don't lose your sense of proportion! As soon as the governor's army arrives, , he will become a fan! It's just that you have to be careful and take care of yourself..."

"Major Governor, please rest assured—this subordinate will definitely fulfill his mission!" Liang Ji gritted his teeth, and nodded vigorously at him with a look of determination on his face.

Only then did Sima Yi turn around, held the "Nine-Yao Knife" high in his hand, and ordered solemnly: "The rest of the generals will lead their own troops and bring all the fine weapons and weapons such as rushing chariots, ladders, thunderbolt chariots, and wolf-toothed crossbows. We can supply about one month's supply of grain and grass, and the governor will personally drive and lead, and follow Zhoutai, Niu Jin and other advance teams, and take two days in one day, and quickly advance to Xincheng County!"

"Lu Xun also replied that he would send troops from Mulansai to meet me! Moreover, he also mentioned in the letter that he would suggest that Sun Quanfeng worship me as the assistant general of Wu and the governor of Jingzhou..." Meng Da held up Lu Xun and wrote to himself The reply letter written by Meng Xing, Li Fu, and Deng Xian complacently waved before Meng Xing, Li Fu, Deng Xian, etc., "Now, I rely on Xishu on the left and Dongwu on the right. Come together, what can you do to me?"

Li Fu listened, but his reaction was different from the blind optimism of Meng Xing and Deng Xian, with a hint of worry at the corners of his brows, but he didn't want to say much in this situation.

At this moment, the guards outside the study raised their voices and said: "Sign up to the prefect, Mr. Liang Ji, who is enlisting in the army in the South, has something to come to see urgently!"

"Liang Ji? What is he doing here?" Meng Da froze and said to himself in astonishment.He pondered for a while, then waved his hands outward, Meng Xing, Li Fu, Deng Xian and others understood, and all retreated to hide behind the large screen in the study.

As soon as the wooden door of the study was opened, Liang Ji's face was covered with sweat, as if he had just dismounted from his mount and didn't have time to rest, he slammed straight in, opened his mouth and shouted: "General Meng! Something is wrong with you!"

When Meng Da heard it, his heartstrings tensed immediately, and he almost jumped up from the seat, his face turned slightly pale: "Mr. Liang——Is there anything wrong with Mr. Meng, please let me know!"

"Don't you know, General Meng? Recently Zhuge Liang's underling Guo Mo surrendered to Shen Yi. He reported to Shen Yi that you had colluded with Zhuge Liang inside and outside and attempted to rebel. It's over!"

"What... what?" Meng Da felt as if he had been struck by five thunders on the spot.oops!Unexpectedly, I was fully prepared, and at this moment, something happened!Who is Guo Mo?How could he leak the secret communication between himself and Zhuge Liang?This guy Shen Yi grabbed his handle, and sure enough, he rushed to Sima Yi's place to tell the truth... His thoughts changed suddenly, his face and cheeks were densely covered with oily sweat, and he was alive and well. Take off is like a pig's face cooked by the fire.He gritted his teeth, calmed himself down, looked at Liang Ji with puffed eyes, and said bitterly: "Shen Yi is talking nonsense and telling stories, it is really abominable! My heart can learn from the sun, where is there any understanding?" Conspiracy against the enemy country and collusion with foreign thieves?! All of this was fabricated by him to frame me! Please Liang Junjun to investigate clearly! I have previously impeached his brothers for many evil deeds of arrogating power, violating the system, corrupting the law ...He has always held grudges against me, waiting for an opportunity to take personal revenge! Wanwang Liang joins the army to help, and goes to Governor Sima to express his love for me!"

"Hi! If Liang hadn't known about the festival between you and Shen Yi in Zhennan Mansion earlier, and knew your character and conduct, why would he rush to report to you today?" Liang Ji took it casually He took a white towel on his desk, wiped his face a few times, wiped off some dirt, then sat down carelessly across from him, sighed, "General Meng, you are really—— Why did you fight against a villain like Brother Shen Yi out of thin air, and attracted his fabricated and framed words? There are some wicked people who cannot be easily provoked."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Meng Da also stretched out his hand to wipe the oily sweat from his forehead, and accompanied him with a charming smile, "Meng's impeachment of his two brothers was also to maintain the national code of conduct, out of a purely public heart ——This point, Liang Canjun, you once served under Xiahou Zhennan, so you are naturally clear about it! But I don’t know what the attitude of Governor Sima is towards this matter?”

"The Commander Sima knows everything you said. What a fair and strict sage is he? How could he be deceived by Shen Yi with such a thing?" Liang Ji threw the white towel on the chopping board , leaned over and winked at Meng Da and said, "Don't worry... Liang has spoken well for you in front of Governor Sima. The old governor also believed Liang's words and sent that fellow Shen Yi here The report has been reviewed for a long time, and finally it is said, "General Meng abandoned the dark and turned to the light and returned to our Emperor Wen of Wei. Xiahou Zhennan and Huanjie Lingjun all believed in him, and solemnly entrusted him with the important task of guarding the southwestern border." It can be said that the monarch is loyal and his minister is loyal to the sun and the moon! General Meng is so trusted by the Great Wei, but on the contrary, who doesn’t hate General Meng deeply? If Zhuge Liang really wants to have an ulterior motive with General Meng The matter must be kept tight-lipped and meticulous, how could it be known to the generals like Guo Mo? It is just that Shen Yi made Guo Mo fabricate this matter to deceive the governor in order to trap the general in an injustice! Fool and mistrust the general!'”

"Oh! The governor is indeed extremely wise! It's rare that he trusts Meng so much. Meng is so grateful..." Meng Da blinked his eyelids a few times when he heard this, and a string of tears fell down.
