The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 458 The final winner?
Dongfang Shengyi appeared, and everyone present felt desperate.

It's not just Dongfang Sheng's personal reasons, but more because Dongfang Sheng is followed by a large number of cavalry.

Only a strong military advantage can make heroes like Sun Quan and Liu Bei feel desperate, and the Suwei camp behind Dongfang Sheng did not disappoint Dongfang Sheng.

First encircle, then divide, and nibble away bit by bit.

During this period, Sun Quan and Liu Bei worked together to break through several times but were repelled by Dongfang Sheng. Because Cao Zhi disdained to be with Sun Quan and the others, he broke through alone, and the result needless to say.

In the end, Cao Zhi, Sun Quan and Liu Bei had no choice but to be captured.

This process was not particularly intense. Dongfang Sheng let out a sigh of relief looking at the corpses all over the ground and ordered the soldiers of the Suwei Battalion to start cleaning the battlefield.

Strolling in the bloody palace, Dongfang Sheng was filled with emotion.

Once you are successful, even if what you do is the most correct thing in the eyes of future generations, it is still inevitable that someone will criticize you behind your back, saying that you killed innocent people indiscriminately, used military force and so on.

Cao Pi's body was put away, and it was not put together with ordinary soldiers. After all, he was also a nephew, and the dead were the most important. Dongfang Sheng didn't want to lose his status by humiliating the corpse.

At the same time, Dongfangsheng's other guard battalion directly 'protected' Cao Pi's family members. Firstly, it could prevent them from being bullied by ordinary soldiers, and secondly, they could directly control them to avoid any unnecessary accidents.

During this period, Dongfang Sheng also sent a small team of guards to protect Emperor Xian. After all, he was also the emperor of the previous dynasty, so he could not be ignored, otherwise he would be condemned morally.

After doing all this, Dongfang Sheng ordered the city gates to be closed and began to search for Sima Yi.

But obviously, the cunning Sima Yi had already escaped.

Things went so smoothly this time, Dongfang Sheng felt a little uneasy.

When Suweiying was cleaning up the Wei Palace, Dongfang Sheng had been thinking about the whole incident, and the more he thought about it, the more something went wrong.

It stands to reason that the best result for Dongfang Sheng this time is to hold Cao Pi hostage and escape from the palace.

The worst plan is of course to die at the hands of Cao Pi, but Dongfang Sheng also made arrangements and explained to Ba Dao and the others.

For him, in fact, he really doesn't care much about everything he has obtained now. It's not that he doesn't cherish it, but that he has experienced life and death once, and he looks down on some things a lot.

But Sun Quan's sudden appearance made the whole situation uncontrollable.

One thing Dongfang Sheng couldn't figure out was why Sun Quan would suddenly lead troops in at this critical moment. The timing was so precise, it was almost as if someone had arranged it.

For this reason, Dongfang Sheng also interrogated Sun Quan and Liu Bei, but these two guys are also veterans. Dongfang Sheng didn't get anything useful at all. Both of them said that they had obtained information from their informants in the palace. Just came in.

But Dongfang Sheng knew that the fastest way to transmit information during this period would not allow the two of them to raise troops and directly enter the palace in such a short period of time, unless someone had laid an ambush in advance and designed all of this.

Dongfang Sheng turned to interrogate Cao Zhi. This guy was more likely to be fooled than Sun Quan and the others. After some investigation, Dongfang Sheng only got one useful piece of information, that is, a general of the Wei Army came to say that something happened to Cao Pi, and he brought a group of people with him. Take orders from him.

But the most deceitful thing is that Cao Zhi finally found out that the general of the Wei army had disappeared.

The clue was broken at this point, but Dongfang Sheng still had a third doubt, which was why it so happened that Badao and the others attacked the city outside the city.

Compared with Cao Zhi and the others, Badao and the others cooperated much better.

However, Dongfang Sheng didn't get any valuable information from them, because the reason why Badao and the others suddenly attacked the city was that Zhang Lei, Dongfang Sheng's father-in-law, said he knew that the city of Xudu was empty, and he In the city, there are internal responses.

After learning about this, Dongfang Sheng fell silent, apparently his father-in-law Zhang Lei had a problem.

After hesitating for a while, Dongfang Sheng still called Zhang Lei over. For Dongfang Sheng, the last thing he wanted was to be manipulated by others, or to live his life according to the route set by others. Otherwise, he would not be an international servant after retiring. soldier.

Dongfang Shengjing sat in Cao Pi's palace. The palace was magnificent, but it looked a little gloomy and gloomy.

Zhang Lei came in from the outside with a happy face, even the footsteps were so brisk.

"Meng Ren, now you are truly a powerful man!" Zhang Lei smiled brightly, with undisguised excitement and anticipation in his laughter.

But when he saw Dongfang Sheng frowning and looking at him, Zhang Lei's expression also changed.

"What's the matter, do you think there is a problem?" Zhang Lei asked a little puzzled.

Dongfang Sheng tapped on the case with his fingers: "Have you reached any agreement with them?"

Zhang Lei's face changed slightly, and he returned to normal in an instant, but Dongfang Sheng had successfully captured Zhang Lei's expression, and now he had some judgments.

"What is Meng Ren talking about? What are they, ours, this world belongs to our family, why should we divide it between each other?" Zhang Lei said vaguely.

"Hey." Dongfang Sheng sighed deeply, "Is it for Pi'er?"

Zhang Lei's daughter, Zhang Ping, gave birth to Dongfang Sheng's son, Dongfang Pi.

Zhang Lei was silent for a while, his face changed several times, and finally he relaxed his tense muscles, and said with a long sigh of relief: "So what?"

"When did Sima Yi discuss it with you?" Dongfang Sheng asked rather disappointed.

Seeing himself being exposed, Zhang Lei said without concealing it: "Zhongda is one of the rare dragons and phoenixes. He helped you unify the big man regardless of past suspicions. Don't you feel grateful? I discussed it with him a long time ago. , Cao Pi’s child perverted, murdered his father and usurped the throne, sooner or later he will inevitably die, all of this is within Zhongda’s calculations.”

It really is him!Dongfang Sheng's probing words finally confirmed that the mastermind behind all this was Sima Yi's heart.

And Cao Pi, who was originally close to Sima Yi, was betrayed long ago as an abandoned son, playing with an emperor in the palm of his hand, and only a person like Sima Yi can do it.

As if overlapping with history, Cao Wei was finally terminated by Sima Yi.

But Sima Yi plotted against Cao Pi, wouldn't he plot against himself?

Dongfang Sheng didn't believe that Sima Yi would be so kind, but Zhang Lei sat down carelessly and said a word that immediately confirmed Dongfang Sheng's guess: "Zhongda has already made arrangements. If something happens, Pi'er will be elected as the crown prince."

bump!
Accompanied by a loud noise, Dongfang Sheng smashed the solid wood case in front of him into pieces with one punch!
