Jiang Ji was also angered by Cao Xiu's words, and shouted in a deep voice: "I, Jiang Ji, have received the favor of the three generations of emperors of the Great Wei, and I am loyal to the Great Wei, and the world can learn from heaven and earth.

It's not that I want to bury the land of Great Wei, but the south of the Yellow River is located in the plain, Deng Aitun soldiers Wancheng, Liu Chan has returned to Chang'an, Luoyang, and Xuchang all need to be heavily defended, and the rest of the territory, there are no soldiers and horses to call, and there is no way to stop Zhuge Liang.

At that time, the soldiers and horses will be exhausted, not only the land south of the Yellow River will not be able to hold, but the land north of the Yellow River will also be difficult to preserve! ”

Cao Xiu snorted coldly: "My big Wei man stands up to the sky, and he hasn't fought Zhuge Liang yet, how do you know that he can't beat it?" Even if you really can't beat it, the ancestral foundation will not give up an inch of land. Your Majesty, Weichen is willing to lead the army to fight Zhuge Liang! ”

"Stand down!" Looking at Cao Xiu, who was asking for battle, Cao Rui waved his hand.

Cao Rui knows his uncle's ability, and it is not difficult for Cao Xiu to defeat ordinary generals, and sometimes he can even compete with some famous generals.

It's just that what kind of character is Zhuge Liang? Even if Cao Cao saw him, he had to be cautious and not dare to slack off in the slightest, Rao was like this, and the odds of winning were only five or five points.

What's more, there are too few generals in Great Wei now, and Zhuge Liang's command are all fierce generals who can fight well, Cao Rui knows in his heart that if Cao Xiu is sent out, he is afraid that he will be sent to death in vain.

Cao Rui didn't dare to let Cao Xiu lead the army to meet Zhuge Liang, and Cao Rui couldn't make up his mind because of Jiang Ji's strategy.

Cao Rui actually understood what Jiang Ji meant in his heart, if it was a county and a county, he would give up if he gave up, but now it is a land of several states, which is equivalent to more than half of the current land of Great Wei, and Cao Rui can't give it up at all.

The four of them retreated, leaving Cao Rui alone in the room, silently pondering.

"Humph!" The four of them walked out of Cao Rui's bedroom, Cao Xiu glanced at Jiang Ji and Chen Qun, snorted coldly, and walked away.

Cao Shuang was Cao Xiu's nephew, and when he saw this, he didn't dare to stay with Jiang Ji and Chen Qun, so he hurriedly followed.

"Hey!" Looking at the back of the two leaving, Jiang Ji shook his head and sighed.

Chen Qun looked at Jiang Ji and said with a dejected face: "Brother Zitong, has my Great Wei really reached such a point?" ”

Jiang Ji sighed and said: "If Yuzhou, Yanzhou has enough troops, and it can still resist Zhuge Liang." It's just that my Great Wei has been defeated repeatedly over the years, and the strong men and soldiers and horses in various states have been evacuated, and the soldiers and horses in Xuchang and Luoyang cannot be moved lightly, and forcibly mobilizing soldiers and horses to defend Yuzhou and Yanzhou will only lead to the collapse of the whole line.

Now the plan is to abandon the land south of the Yellow River, retreat to Hebei, and rely on the natural danger of the Yellow River to deal with the Shu army.

At the same time, Yangzhou and Xuzhou will be ceded to Jiangdong, enhance Jiangdong's strength, let Jiangdong attract the attention of Shu, and at the same time, Zhuge Liang's intention to divide my Great Wei and Jiangdong. The territory of my Great Wei and Jiangdong is still connected together, and we can watch and help each other.

The capital of Shu is far away in Chang'an, Zhuge Liang and others cannot stay in the land of Yuyan all the time, they will only leave the general to guard, and when Zhuge Liang leaves in the future, my Great Wei is uniting Jiangdong, and there is no chance of counterattack. ”

Chen Qun was puzzled: "It's just a land of several states, and Your Majesty is difficult to give up!" ”

Jiang Ji smiled bitterly: "As a minister, tell the monarch the best advice, retreating to the north of the Yellow River is the only way to save the crisis of the Great Wei at present, I just talk about the matter, but the land of several states, if it is me, it is difficult to give up!" ”

Chen Qun sighed and said: "It would be good if Zhong Da was here at this time, he is resourceful, and there will definitely be a way!" ”

Jiang Ji shook his head: "Although Zhong Da is resourceful, there is only one Sima Yi in my Great Wei after all, and there are too many capable generals in Shu Kingdom, he is the only one, I am afraid that I will not be able to return to the sky!" ”

The two talked a few more words, and then they went back to their respective homes.

"Master, the eldest son of the Sima family asks to see you!" When Jiang Ji returned home, he was greeted by the people at the door.

"Oh? Where is he now? ”

The servant replied, "I have already invited you to the side hall to serve tea!" ”

"Hmm!" Jiang Ji nodded and walked towards the side hall.

Jiang Ji came to the side hall and saw Sima Shi who was walking back and forth in the hall: "Virtuous nephew, why do you have time to come to me today?" ”

"Uncle Jiang!" Seeing Jiang Ji coming back, Sima Shi got up and saluted Jiang Ji, and arched his hand and said, "Uncle Jiang, I heard that Your Majesty summoned you to the palace before, but the news of the Jiangxia war came?" ”

Jiang Ji raised his eyebrows: "You actually know?" ”

Sima Shi nodded, took a letter from his bosom and handed it to Jiang Ji: "Father found out a few days ago, and sent someone back to send me a letter, saying that if the news of the Jiangxia war came, he would hand the letter to Uncle Jiang and submit it to His Majesty!" ”

"Oh?" Hearing this, Jiang Ji hurriedly took the letter.

The letter was not painted, so Jiang Ji took it out and read it.

"This ...... This ......" Jiang Ji finished reading the letter, his pupils shrank, and the hand holding the letter kept trembling.

Sima Shi looked at Jiang Ji and said, "Uncle Jiang, please quickly submit the letter to Your Majesty!" ”

Jiang Ji shook his head again and again: "No, this is something that has been stinking for thousands of years, and I have been scolded for it, I can't do it, I ...... this letter."

Jiang Ji said, trying to tear up the letter.

Sima Shi hurriedly stopped Jiang Ji and persuaded: "Uncle Jiang, my Great Wei has been defeated repeatedly, this is the only way to save Great Wei, you can't tear it!" ”

Jiang Ji's voice trembled: "Throughout the ages, the Yellow River has been diverted, which time has it not been a misery? If Zhong Da does this, the land of Huaisi will only be difficult to be peaceful for decades, if this method is used to save my Great Wei, I would rather not save it! ”

Sima Shi persuaded: "Uncle Jiang, my father only made this suggestion, and it is not certain that Your Majesty will not adopt it, and it is very clear in the letter that if you really want to implement this plan, the people in those places will be moved, and please hand over the letter to Your Majesty first."

You are a veteran of the Three Dynasties of the Great Wei Dynasty, thinking of how difficult it is for Nian Taizu to start a business, you don't want to watch the Great Wei die, right? ”

After listening to Sima Yi's words, Jiang Ji closed his eyes and was silent for a long time before saying, "Okay, I'll present the letter to Your Majesty first!" ”

"Without further ado, please ask Uncle Jiang to enter the palace quickly!"

Jiang Ji nodded, put the letter in his arms, and hurried to the palace again.

Luoyang Imperial Palace.

After Jiang Ji and the others left, Cao Rui lay on the bed alone, closing his eyes and pondering.

At this moment, an attendant outside the door walked in and said to Cao Rui: "Your Majesty, Lord Jiang asks to see you!" ”

Cao Rui opened his eyes: "Jiang Ji? Didn't he just leave? Let him in! ”
