The last three kingdoms

Chapter 577
Sima You said happily: "The plan will be released?"

Liu Yin pointed to the Wei soldiers who were coming from the city like a tide, and said: "One hundred thousand troops gathered under the city of Luoyang, but they came for only one person. If the king hangs the head of this person at the gate of Luoyang, the enemy who besieged the city will naturally be defeated." Back off."

Sima You couldn't help but his face changed slightly. Of course he knew who the "he" Liu Yin was referring to. The hundred thousand governors of the three routes of the Wei Army came here under the order of Sima Yan. It was an offensive that spared no effort, and the most feasible way to disrupt the attack of the army was to behead Sima Yan and hang his head on the city gate proposed by Liu Yin. In this way, the attackers could be dealt a huge blow With Sima Yan's will and confidence, they are at best following orders without taking any responsibility, but if Sima Yan is dead, no one can excuse their actions. Sima You's order is a crime of treason, and all soldiers and horses in the world can mobilize and besiege it.

It can be said that Sima Yan is the leader of this army. Once Sima Yan is executed, this army will surely fall into a situation without a leader. But I am afraid that they will not be able to bear the charge of treason. Without the banner of Sima Yan, no amount of troops will be able to gather fighting power.

But Sima You had already promised Wang Yuanji that he would not pursue Sima Yan's crimes again. If Sima Yan were executed now, it would be difficult to explain to Wang Yuanji.Another thing that makes Sima You more troubled is that in his heart, after all, there is still the inseparable family relationship. After all, he and Sima Yan are also brothers, and Sima You is not the kind of cruel and merciless person. Unwilling to execute Sima Yan.

"Is there no other way?" Sima You asked hesitantly.

Liu Yin shook his head. Now the power gap between the enemy and us is too great. At best, the imperial guards can only temporarily guarantee that the city wall will not be breached. They barely hold the city, but there is no reinforcement. The hope of the city is too slim. "Besides this, I'm afraid there is no good plan."

Sima You remained silent. He was also very aware of the predicament he was facing now. If Liu Yin did not adopt the most extreme measures mentioned by Liu Yin, it would be difficult to resolve this crisis. But could he really be cruel enough to deal with it?
Liu Yin didn't say anything more. In fact, Liu Yin was also very conflicted. Killing Sima Yan would certainly stabilize the overall situation and secure Sima You's throne, but it obviously went against Liu Yin's original intention. Liu Yin's original intention was to We must muddy the pond of Wei State, and the more muddy the better, let Yan You fight to the death, this will greatly weaken the power of Wei State, Sima You can easily defeat and imprison him now Sima Yan, it's a little early for the good show of Yanyou's dispute to come to an end, and the real climax has not yet been seen.Now Sima You is keeping Sima Yan from killing, and the three-way army has spared no effort to understand and rescue Sima You, so that the drama that should have ended has continued.

However, if the situation continues, it may be beyond Liu Yin's expectations. After all, the [-] troops outside the city are like a scourge, and keeping Sima Yan will be a disaster after all. There is no doubt about Sima Yan's ability. The tiger fell into Pingyang in the sleepy shoal, once he was allowed to feel like a fish in water, it would definitely be a big deal.

Compared with a hawkish force like Sima Yan coming to power, Liu Yin naturally hoped that a moderate leader like Sima You would come to power, which would be very helpful for Liu Yin to keep his victory in Guanzhong.The rise of Sima Yan will undoubtedly pose a great threat to Guanzhong. Sima Yan's threat index is even higher than Sima Zhao's.Sima Yan is ambitious, courageous, and cunning, and he will never be merciless at critical moments. If he were to change places, Sima You's head might be gone by now, and he could even kill his father Sima Zhao. No one I would think that Sima Yan would care about brotherhood.

Even if such a dangerous person cannot be eliminated now, he must not be let out of his control. Although the situation is critical now, as long as Liu Yin really holds Sima Yan's hole card, he will not lose easily.

Liu Yin called A Jian over and said, "A Jian, you should return to the Jin Palace quickly and tell Zhang Le and Zhao Zhuo to keep Sima Yan under watch. Sima Yan must not be allowed to escape. It’s okay to keep close to you.”

A Jian bowed his hands and promised to take the order, turned around and climbed down the top of the wall, but just as he stepped down from the top of the wall, he bumped into Zhang Le and Zhao Zhuo who were rushing over.

Zhang Le is still looking around, looking left and right, as if looking for something, while Zhao Zhuo, who has always been calm, can hardly hide his panic at the moment. The scene at the upper east gate is in a mess. He is obviously looking for Liu. Yin's, but it is quite difficult to find Liu Yin among the chaos.

Seeing A Jian, Zhang Le couldn't help being very happy, he quickly grabbed A Jian, and asked where Liu Yin was.

Ah Jian said: "The two of you came at the right time, I was ordered by the young master to look for you."

Zhang Le waved his hand and said: "I don't care about talking about this now, where is my elder brother? I have something very urgent."

Seeing Zhang Le and Zhao Zhuo's expressions, Ah Jian obviously had important matters to report, so he didn't dare to delay, and immediately led the two of them back.

Liu Yin and Sima You were still on the tower, commanding the defenders to fight. The Wei army's offensive became more and more fierce, and the entire offensive and defensive battle was in full swing. If Liu Yin and Sima You were not on the tower to boost morale, the situation would probably be worse. Even more pessimistic.

At this time, Liu Yin seemed to catch a glimpse of A Jian from the corner of his eye, and he couldn't help but frowned slightly. Didn't he just ordered A Jian to go to the Jin Palace to inform Zhang Le and Zhao Zhuo to be optimistic about Sima Yan? The effort was reversed. You must know that Jian seldom disobeyed his own orders. As long as this order was ridiculously wrong, Jian would carry it out to the letter. Why is it like this today?
Liu Yin turned his head, and soon he saw Zhang Le and Zhao Zhuo, and couldn't help screaming in his heart, Zhang Le and Zhao Zhuo were originally arranged by him to guard Sima Yan in the Jin Palace, but now they appear in the When they got to the east gate, it was obvious that something had happened to Jin Palace, otherwise Zhang Le and Zhao Zhuo would not have left their posts without authorization.

Zhang Le also saw Liu Yin, and hurried to Liu Yin in three steps at a time, changed his cynical and cynical look, and said with a serious expression: "Brother, something serious happened, Sima Yan ran away!"
