The Jagged Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 605 604 The Burning Yangtze River (44)

The story of three people becoming tigers took place in the Warring States period. Its original intention was to say that there were no tigers in the city, and three people lied about the presence of tigers in the market, and the listeners believed it.Later generations use this as a metaphor for rumors or rumors repeated by many people, which can make the listeners believe it is true.

When Zhang Yan heard that Sima Yi suddenly asked about the three becoming tigers, he immediately understood everything, and said to Sima Yi: "You can rest assured that this king will never let similar things happen. This king is not Wei Hui." king."

Sima Yi said: "With His Highness's words, Zhong Da can rest assured."

Zhang Yandao: "Just let go and do it, all the consequences will be borne by this king!"

"Here!" Sima Yi clasped his fists and said.

With Zhang Yan's promise, Sima Yi left the hall of the county government office. After returning to the room, he could no longer restrain his inner joy.This time Zhang Yan led the army to march south, with the aim of pacifying the entire south and unifying the country.And this is also the best time to make meritorious deeds. Whoever Zhang Yan decides to use for the Southern Expedition will be able to rely on this strategic plan to achieve great achievements.

In addition, it is also an opportunity to express oneself to Zhang Yan. Who would not want to rush for such a great contribution?
But there are many elites gathered here. If you want to stand out from the crowd, you must take the lead.Sima Yi saw this right, racked his brains, and came up with such a clever plan, and then wrote it into a strategic plan to deal with Jiangdong.

Moreover, Sima Yi had grasped Zhang Yan's mentality. Zhang Yan had suffered from Zhou Yu's losses in water battles, but Zhang Yan was a person who had to get up wherever he fell. The strength of the army is obvious to all. If he wanted to attack from land, there was no suspense for him to destroy Jiangdong.But if he can beat Zhou Yu again in the water battle and completely wipe out the Jiangdong water army, maybe he can be comforted in his heart.

Sima Yi was able to prescribe the right medicine because he had grasped this point.Moreover, the strategy he adopted to play hard to get has also successfully won him a huge honor.

For this Southern Expedition, Yan Wang Zhang Yan personally took command. Among the elite soldiers and strong generals mobilized, except for General Wei Xu Chu who was in charge of protecting Pengcheng, the other four of the five tiger generals who were famous all over the world were here. , Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, which one is not a master of this era?

In addition, Ma Chao, Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, Zhang He, Zhou Tai, Pang De, Lu Meng, Jiang Qin and others were not generals who fought with swords and guns. I don't know how many people's blood was stained on their hands .

In addition, Jia Xu, Lu Su, Liu Ye, Xu You and others are all scheming, and Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong are very scheming. In short, none of the people currently under Zhang Yan's hands is mediocre.

If you want to stand out in such an environment, how can you not resort to a little trick?

In short, Sima Yi was in a particularly good mood today, and he couldn't help but began to sing aloud when he was in a good mood.

It is true that people are in good spirits on happy occasions. Sima Yi, who was gloomy a few days ago, has changed into a happy face now.

"My lord, what are you so happy about?" Seeing Sima Yi's appearance, Zhou Yuncong asked while pouring tea for Sima Yi.

"You will know tomorrow." Sima Yi pretended to be mysterious.

Seeing that Sima Yi didn't say anything, Zhou Yuncong didn't ask any further questions, and stood quietly by the side, serving Sima Yi at any time.

It stands to reason that Jingzhou has been subordinated to Zhang Yan, and Zhou Yuncong's mission should also be over, but Zhang Yan has not transferred Zhou Yuncong away for a long time, but let Zhou Yuncong stay by Sima Yi's side, but what is the mission? He didn't explain anything, it seemed that Zhou Yuncong had been forgotten.

However, only Zhou Yuncong knew the most psychologically. There was no task, but in fact it was the biggest task. As a Jinyiwei, his professional sensitivity allowed Zhou Yuncong to almost guess Zhang Yan's intentions.That is to keep him by Sima Yi's side, nominally to continue to serve Sima Yi, but in fact it is to monitor Sima Yi.

To be honest, Zhang Yan was not at ease with Sima Yi, that's why he made such an arrangement.

Historically, Sima Yi harbored evil intentions and hid his courage for so many years. He lay dormant in Cao Wei for a long time, and waited until those capable people died, then he began to start slowly, and then devoured Cao Wei's power bit by bit. Sima replaced Cao Wei and became the biggest winner in the Three Kingdoms period.

Therefore, this person has to guard against it.

But this person is extremely talented, like a double-edged sword. If you use it well, he is a sharp sword in your hand, which can help you sweep away all the haze. If you don’t use it well, you will bite back and hurt yourself.

Zhang Yan wanted to use his talent, but also beware of him, after all, this person was famous in history.In contrast, Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong and others do not have the ambitions of Sima Yi. They can use it with confidence and boldness. On the contrary, Sima Yi has always made Zhang Yan very conflicted. He wants to reuse him, but dare not use it too much. He is afraid that after Sima Yi gains power, he will cultivate his own power and disobey him.

However, Sima Yi didn't know what Zhang Yan was thinking. He thought that Zhang Yan had deliberately forgotten Zhou Yuncong with him. Anyway, he also needed someone like Zhou Yuncong by his side, so he simply didn't mention it.

And Sima Yi doesn't even know what kind of person he will become in the future. Now he is in his youth, young and energetic, and he only wants to serve the King of Yan, and then do a vigorous career. In the recorded biography, he can have a place, his name will go down in history, and his name will last forever.

In the hall of the county government office, after Sima Yi left, Zhang Yan carefully read Sima Yi's strategic plan again, and felt a little regretful psychologically. He felt that Sima Yi's strategic plan was too lopsided Worried that Zhou Yu would see through.

Although Sima Yi is extremely smart and talented for a while, but at this moment, the Three Kingdoms are full of talents and heroes, just like the stars in the sky.At this time, Zhou Yu was just the brighter star in the night sky.

Zhou Yu became famous earlier, has experienced many battles, has rich war experience, and has a keen sense of war. The reason why Jiangdong is still standing today is inseparable from Zhou Yu's credit.

Although Zhang Yan's subordinates have great people like Sima Yi, Zhuge Liang, and Pang Tong, at this moment, they are still too young, and they have very little experience in commanding battles. A general who directs a war.With their current talents, it is impossible for them to be Zhou Yu's opponents.

At this moment, Zhang Yan felt that he was a little too adventurous?
For this reason, Zhang Yan specially found Jia Xu, who was also his teacher and friend, and was going to tell Jia Xu about Sima Yi's strategic plan, and asked Jia Xu for an idea.

Jia Xu was summoned by Zhang Yan, and soon came to the hall of the county government. Before entering the hall, Zhang Yan saw Jia Xu appearing at the door, so he got up immediately, walked towards Jia Xu, and met Jia Xu directly. , grabbed Jia Xu with one hand, pulled Jia Xu and walked into the hall.

This kind of enthusiasm can only be obtained by Jia Xu. For him, this is a kind of trust, and it is also a kind of honor.

"You all step back, the king and Mr. Jia have something important to discuss!" Zhang Yan waved his hand and pushed away the people in the hall. In the entire hall, only Zhang Yan and Jia Xu were left.

Jia Xu saw that Zhang Yan was acting so mysteriously, and Zhang Yan's expression was gloomy, so he asked, "King Yan, is something wrong?"

Zhang Yan said: "You can't hide anything from your eyes. Today it's just you and me, here, there is no King Yan, and no Youzhou Mu, just me and you, two friends who haven't seen each other for a long time, how about it? "

Jia Xu is very smart, so she naturally knows what Zhang Yan is saying and the meaning behind it. If she guesses what Zhang Yan is going to tell him next, she will probably ask for his opinion, but even if she says something wrong , nothing will happen, just as an old friend.

"I will obey King Yan's orders." Jia Xu nodded heavily, and at the same time, she was mentally prepared.

At this time, Zhang Yan took out Sima Yi's strategic plan, handed it directly to Jia Xu, and said, "Take a look at this first!"

Jia Xu took the strategic plan, opened it, and glanced through it in a hurry. His brows were tightly wrinkled, and his eyes were attracted by the content of the strategic plan. He actually went from beginning to end seriously. Tail watched it carefully.

After Jia Xu finished reading, he closed the strategic plan gently, his brows gradually relaxed, then he raised his eyelids, looked at Zhang Yan, and said slowly: "It seems that His Highness has already chosen in his heart. That's the strategic plan, right?"

Zhang Yan nodded and asked, "What do you think of this strategic plan?"

"Bold enough, novel enough, adventurous enough, and mature enough, it is an extremely feasible strategic plan. The person who can come up with this strategic plan must be a remarkable person. This person is either a masterful planner or an unparalleled talent. "Jia Xu greatly appreciated this strategic plan, and he was not stingy in his praise, and even more highly praised the person who wrote this strategic plan.

After Zhang Yan listened to Jia Xu's praise, he said, "Look carefully at the end of this strategic plan."

Jia Xu shifted his gaze to the signature on the signature, but saw the words "Jingzhou governor Sima Yi handwritten" written on it.Only then did he know that this strategic plan came from Sima Yi, and he couldn't help being deeply surprised that Sima Yi had such an amazing talent.

"I didn't expect Sima Yi to have such extraordinary wisdom. I really underestimated him." Jia Xu sighed heavily, and said slowly, "Young people today are so powerful. The generation is indeed old. But it is very good for His Highness to have such a talent to assist him. But, why is there still a little worry between His Highness's brows?"
