Chapter 727: Cao Rui vomited blood
"Then if Wang Ling can't resist Zhuge Liang...... Isn't that my Great Wei...... Isn't it ......?"
Sima Zhao's eyelids jumped wildly, and he stammered when he spoke.
Although Sima Zhao is young now, he is not yet a qualified general or monarch, but with his current wisdom, he is also very aware of the consequences if Wang Ling loses Jiangxia.
Jiangxia is Yuzhou to the north, Yanzhou to the north of Yuzhou, Yangzhou Jiangbei region to the east, and Xuzhou.
These places are all plains, there is no danger to defend, and in recent years, Wei has transferred too many young men in Yuzhou, Yanzhou, and Xuzhou, resulting in these places falling into a state of no soldiers.
Once Jiangxia is lost, the territory of these three and a half states cannot be defended at all.
And once the territory of these three and a half states is lost, Wei and Jiangdong will be divided.
Not only that, but Xuchang and Luoyang of Wei will also fall into the siege of the Han Dynasty and become isolated cities, suffering from the enemy on their backs.
The Han army did not need to attack at all, and if the troops and horses were surrounded and supplies were cut off, the two cities would be in a desperate situation.
Not only that, Yuzhou, Yangzhou, Xuzhou, and Yangzhou Jiangbei, the territory of the three and a half states, is a plain area, the land is fertile, the Eastern Han Dynasty, the world's most populous county is Nanyang County, the second most populous county is Yuzhou's Runan.
Although there has been a large loss of population in recent years, it is not comparable to the heyday of the Han Dynasty, but if it is obtained by the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty will completely overwhelm the Wei State in terms of heritage.
At that time, Wei only had the land of Hebei and the four states, and Youzhou was a bitter cold land, and Qingzhou was barren, and there was only a rich land in Jizhou, so how could you resist the Han Dynasty?
"Then send reinforcements quickly!"
"Reinforcements?" Sima Yi said coldly: "Who is going?" Are you going? Are you Zhuge Liang's opponent? ”
"I ......" Sima Zhao's tone froze: "I'm not Zhuge Liang's opponent, but my father can." ”
"Then I'm leaving, are you going to deal with Deng Ai?"
Sima Zhao was not convinced this time: "Now that Xuchang City has been successfully rebuilt, as long as my father left me 20,000 soldiers and horses, I can't hold out, what can Deng Ai do to me?" ”
Sima Yi snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, arrogant! ”
Sima Zhao was puzzled: "What should I do then?" If you don't save Jiangxia, once Jiangxia falls, Xu Chang is afraid that he won't be able to save it! ”
Sima Yi sighed and said: "It's not that I won't save it, but it's too late, it will take at least fifteen days to travel from here to Jiangxia, and it will take three or five days to spend time preparing grain and grass." Twenty days is enough time for Zhuge Liang to take Jiangxia.
Even if I can arrive before Zhuge Liang breaks through Jiangxia, Zhuge Liang is resourceful, and I will unite Jiangxia soldiers and horses, at most I will only be in a stalemate with Zhuge Liang. At that time, you will need to provide all the food and grass that the army needs.
If you refuse to defend the city, if you are calm enough not to fall into Deng Ai's strategy, you can hold Xuchang, but you need to send troops out of the city to transport grain and grass, can you still guarantee that Xuchang will not be lost? ”
"This ......" Sima Zhao fell into deep thought, if Deng Ai led his troops and horses to attack, and if he wanted to send grain and grass out of the city, he was really not Deng Ai's opponent.
"Then Jiang Xia won't be saved?"
Sima Yi sighed: "I have the heart but I am powerless!" ”
"If you don't save Jiangxia, then I'm only afraid of ......"
Sima Yi's face sank like water: "Since the day Liangzhou was lost, I thought that there would be this day." ”
Sima Zhao worried: "What should I do after that?" ”
"Let's take one step at a time!" Sima Zhao waved his hand, walked to the window and looked at the stars outside the window, and fell into deep thought.
The demise of Wei is not a sure thing at present, but there is probably not much suspense left.
The Sima family followed the warship of the Wei State, which was about to go silent, and did not know where the road was.
Seeing that Sima Yi was silent, Sima Zhao arched his hand: "That kid retired first, father, rest early!" ”
After Sima Zhao left, Sima Yi was silent for a while, walked to the table, took out a piece of paper and wrote a letter.
"Someone!"
After the letter was written, Sima Yi called out the door.
"Head of the house!" A middle-aged man pushed open the door and walked in.
Sima Yi handed the letter to the man: "Go to Luoyang with the letter, if the news of Zhuge Liang's attack on Jiangxia reaches Luoyang, present this letter." ”
"No!"
Half a month later, Sima Yi also got the news that Zhuge Liang had broken through Jiangxia.
Sima Zhao sighed when he heard the news: "It's still my father's expectancy, if he leads his troops to save Jiangxia, I'm afraid it will be a trip in vain." ”
It took more than twenty days to go to Jiangxia, and now the news of Jiangxia's fall has come in just half a month, and even if Sima Yi goes, it will be in vain.
Sima Yi got the news here, and Luoyang naturally got the news, but it was a day later than Sima Yi's side.
Luoyang, Imperial Palace.
In Cao Rui's study.
An attendant hurriedly ran into the study: "Your Majesty, Yangzhou urgent!" ”
"What's so alarming?" Cao Rui was in a good mood, Guan Yu died of illness some time ago, Liu Chan helped Guan Yu's coffin back to Chang'an for burial, and it is estimated that he will not lead his troops to attack this year.
Now that the two cities of Xuchang and Luoyang have been rebuilt into concrete city walls, Liu Chan will lead his troops to attack again, and there is no need to be afraid. As long as you have a good rest and recuperate, and the alliance with Jiangdong, it is not impossible to turn the tables in the future.
The chamberlain handed the letter to Cao Rui: "Your Majesty, Yangzhou is urgent!" ”
"Could it be that Jiangdong betrayed the alliance to attack me in Hefei?" Cao Rui's face changed, and he hurriedly took the letter and read it.
Breaking apart the letter, Cao Rui's eyes fell on the letter.
Looking at it, Cao Rui's face suddenly turned red.
"Your Majesty?" Seeing that Cao Rui hadn't moved for a long time, the waiter couldn't help but call softly.
The "poof......" letter pulleyed from Cao Rui's hand, and a mouthful of blood was spraying on the face of the waiter.
"Your Majesty!" The chamberlain was horrified, screamed, and hurriedly rushed forward to support the crumbling Cao Rui.
Cao Rui supported the waiter and said weakly: "Quickly announce that Jiang Ji, Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu, Chen Qun and others are here!" ”
"Okay, let me help Your Majesty go to bed first, and come over to the Imperial Doctor!"
The waiter helped Cao Rui sit down, and when he got to the door, he called a few guards to come in and helped Cao Rui onto the bed, and sent someone to notify the imperial doctor to come over, and then he went to invite Jiang Ji and others to come over.
"Your Majesty is coughing up blood, how can this be like this?"
"I heard that it was only after reading the letter from Yangzhou that it was like this, nothing will happen to Yangzhou, right?"
"Could it be that Jiangdong has betrayed the alliance? No, they can't be so bold at this time. ”
"Probably not, with Zhao Yan guarding Yangzhou, even if Jiangdong comes to attack, Your Majesty will not cough up blood in anger after reading the letter."
The four of them arrived at the palace together, and there was a discussion on the way.
