Tian Feng said: "The lord's words are wrong! Even if this does not happen in the future, we have to guard against it now. ”

Wen Zhao knew that Tian Feng was upright and sometimes spoke not very well, so not only did he not get angry, but said: "Yuan Hao's words are very good. ”

"However, if you want to keep the barrier of Yuzhou, you must put enough pressure on Yuan Benchu."

"Yuan Benchu is extremely proud, the last time Liu Xuande seized the land of Yuzhou, at that time, because Yuan Benchu's foundation was not stable, I waited for Chen Bing to merge the state before forcing him not to dare to go south."

In fact, Yuan Benchu had already held back his resentment in his heart. Especially when Yuan Shao wiped the book later, he may hate me even more. It's just that the power is a little weaker, so he has been holding back. ”

"However, Yuan Benchu is no longer what it used to be, if I wait for the old trick to be repeated, I'm afraid it will annoy Yuan Benchu, and he will do his best to fight."

Tian Feng said: "Since Yuan Benchu has long held a grudge against the lord, it means that there is no possibility of reconciliation in the future. And the overlord of this world can only have one, even if he doesn't have a grudge against Yuan Benchu now, he will be at odds with him in the future. ”

When Jia Xu heard this, he immediately laughed and said, "Since what is the case, why not take this opportunity to attack Jizhou?" Even if it cannot be eliminated in one fell swoop, it is necessary to try to weaken Yuan Benchu's power so that he will not dare to start disputes again for several years. ”

Tian Feng shook his head and said: "Although Wenhe's words are reasonable, but now Guanzhong is short of food and grass, and there is no excuse for the lord to attack Yuan, so he rashly raised troops and became famous." ”

"Moreover, Yuan Benchu's power is strong, if he defends the city, it is impossible for our army to quickly capture Jizhou. The war is protracted, and it may even drag Guanzhong down, and the war with Yuan Benchu should also be done cautiously. ”

Jia Xu bowed his head slightly, and said, "Yuan Hao is worried in his heart, why haven't I thought about it?" It is not difficult to solve these difficulties. ”

"When the lord sends troops to attack Yuan Shao, he should not make a big show, but he must stop the drum and secretly Chen Cang. In this way, it can be taken by surprise and quickly invade Jizhou, and then use war to feed the war and plunder the population. ”

"It's best if you can break through Jizhou with lightning speed; Even if he can't defeat Jizhou, he must severely weaken his Yuan Benchu's strength, so that he will no longer be able to compete with the lord for a few years. ”

"Although it is extremely difficult to fight with Yuan Benchu this time and eliminate it, it is very easy to achieve just weakening Yuan Benchu's forces."

"If Yuan Benchu's power drops greatly, Cao Mengde will be alone, and he will definitely not dare to have a dispute with the lord."

Wen Zhao was very curious in his heart, and hurriedly asked: "Hundreds of thousands of horses, how can they stop and secretly display their warehouses?" ”

Jia Xu said slowly: "There is no need for hundreds of thousands of people, just 60,000 people are enough." If the lord is so so, if he plans properly, he can not only make the lord soldier capture Hanzhong without blood, but also attack Jizhou by surprise. ”

Chen Xu was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "The military advisor's plan is wonderful, if this plan can be successful, the military advisor should take the first credit." ”

Cheng Yu, Tian Feng, Li Ru and others, after hearing Jia Xu's plan, were all convinced.

Those who are good at fighting have no outstanding merits, and the soldiers who surrender without a fight are the best policy. Jia Xu's grasp of people's hearts is simply wonderful to the peak, and it has to be amazing.

The next day, Wen Zhao secretly summoned Sima Yi and conspired with him in the house for a long time. Not long after this discussion, Sima Yi took a letter of recommendation from Wen Zhao and quietly left Guanzhong.

Although Sima Yi's departure was quiet, Wen Zhao still brought some personal soldiers to see him off.

On the tree-lined official road, Wen Zhao clasped Sima Yi's hand and said, "Ah Yi, several top strategists under my command have long been famous all over the world. If they act rashly, they will surely attract the attention of the other princes. ”

"Only Ah Yi is not only resourceful, but also has not yet reached the crown, and his reputation is not obvious, so he will not be valued by the rest of the princes. This time is not only the occasion for you to become famous, but also a heavy burden on Ah Yi's shoulders. ”

Sima Yi said: "But please rest assured, this time Yi will definitely not live up to the expectations of the lord." ”

Wen Zhao stroked his palms and laughed, and said, "Ah Yi can be so confident, this matter will definitely be done." You just happened to be crowned this year, but because of this incident and delayed your crown ceremony, before you leave, I will take a table for you, okay? ”

Sima Yi was overjoyed and said, "Please also ask the lord to give the word." ”

Wen Zhao pondered for a long time and said: "You are the second in the family, and there should be a 'Zhong' character in the table. Although Ah Yi has just won the crown, she has a calm personality, outstanding talents, and good feelings. ”

"In this case, I will choose the word Zhongda for you, can I?"

Zhong is also the meaning of the second brother in the order of brothers, the ancients called the second brother the middle brother, and the eldest called the second brother the middle brother. Among them, mid-spring also represents the second month of spring, that is, the second month of the lunar calendar.

Sima Yi is the second son in the family, so the word "Zhong" in the table is also wonderful.

As for 'Da', not to mention, Dade refers to having the virtue of passing through the world, which also has the meaning of practicing and accessing. Taking the word for the younger generation contains 'da', which is a very high praise and expectation.

In history, Sima Yi's expression is Zhongda, which shows the expectations and importance of the elders in his family for Sima Yi.

Sima Yi didn't know Wen Zhao, but plagiarized his own words in history, and when he heard that the lord gave him the word 'Zhongda', he was immediately overjoyed and his heart was stirred.

He bowed again and said: "Thank you for the word, this time I will do my best to complete the trust of the lord and live up to the word 'Zhongda'." ”

When Chen Xu heard this, he grabbed Sima Yi's arm and said with some worry: "Zhongda's trip is extremely dangerous, the future is uncertain, and the slightest carelessness will lead to death, I am very worried." ”

"However, there is no one else in Guanzhong who is suitable for this task except you. In this trip, Zhongda only needs to do his duty, whether he can complete the task or not, he must come back alive. ”

Feeling Wen Zhao's care for him, Sima Yi's heart was immediately moved, and he said: "My lord, please rest assured, this time Yi will not only come back alive, but also successfully complete the task, and take this opportunity to become famous all over the world." ”

Wen Zhao said: "It's best if Zhong Da has this ambition, but for the sake of your safety, I will let Guan Ping command a hundred black armor guards, and let them change their outfits and leave with you, so as to protect you." ”

The Black Armor Guards are Wen Zhao's own personal soldiers, because they all wear black armor, so they are also called 'Black Armor Guards'. Since the black armor guard is Wen Zhao's personal soldier, his combat effectiveness is naturally very strong.

He was able to send a hundred people to protect Sima Yi, which shows his concern for Sima Yi.

Sima Yi was even more moved when he heard this, but he didn't speak again, but just made a long gesture.
