Just when Xiao Yi was traveling around Bashu and trying to plunder the population, a lot of things were happening in Xuchang, thousands of miles away!
¡¡
The twelfth lunar month of winter, heavy snowfall, the sky and the earth are white, and the New Year is approaching. At this time of year, the people in Xuchang City either put on brand new clothes, carry gifts to visit relatives and friends, or put up lanterns, decorate the courtyards, and have wonderful activities There are hundreds of fish and dragon shows to watch!
It's the New Year this year, but the atmosphere is completely different. The streets are deserted and there is no joy at all. Occasionally, a few pedestrians appear, with sad faces and bowed heads. Xuchang's four city gates are also closed, and they are full of armored troops. Patrolling back and forth with a spear in hand!
It turned out that the armies commanded by Kong Ming and Guan Yu struggled to attack Xiangyang and Wancheng, so they sent a small group of rangers to the north to bypass Cao's defense line and frequently harassed Runan County, Yingchuan County, Henan County Xuchang and Luoyang were all I was shocked!
For the sake of safety, the Prime Minister's Office issued an order and mobilized 100,000 heavy troops from Hebei to go south to strengthen the defenses near Xuchang and Luoyang. Martial law was also implemented, the city gates were closed, and traffic was prohibited!
In fact, Xuchang's defense is strong, with more than 150,000 troops stationed inside and outside, and they are all elites who have experienced hundreds of battles. They are not afraid of the enemies of Jingzhou heading north. What the court and the public are really worried about is the life and death of one person - Cao Cao!
Because of his serious illness, Cao Cao has not been in court for almost a year, nor has he appeared in public. The Prime Minister's Mansion is even more heavily guarded. Civil and military officials are not allowed to enter without orders, and they are not allowed to inquire about information. People inside the Prime Minister's Mansion are even more silent!
There are even rumors that Cao Cao has died of illness, and the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion kept the mourning secret, and even used ice to suffocate the body, hoping to fill the sky and sea and deceive the world!
The rumors are becoming more and more true, and people's hearts are becoming more and more chaotic. Since the "Shi Changshi" rebellion, the Han Dynasty has collapsed, the princes have risen up, wars have continued in all directions, and the people have been miserable. Like a walking zombie!
Fortunately, Cao Cao raised troops to quell the crisis. For more than ten years, he conquered the south and the north, blocked the east and killed the west, wiped out all the princes, ended the war in the Central Plains, reorganized the court, restored the rule of law, appeased the people, and encouraged farming, so that people had peace. Living in peace is even better than before!
Now the war has not completely subsided. Once Cao Cao passes away, who will calm the princes internally, suppress the barbarians externally, and ensure peace in the world?
Once Cao Cao travels westward, who can take charge of the overall plan and ensure that the court will not be divided and the world will no longer fall into melee?
Of course, there are also people who are very happy and hope that Cao Cao will die soon, or that he is already dead. The remnants of the gentry clan and the die-hard Han Dynasty loyalists are starting to make moves again. However, as long as the news of Cao Cao's death is not confirmed, they will not dare to act rashly. Otherwise, you are asking for death.
Only a few people know that Cao Cao is not dead, but he is about to die!
¡¡
The back hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion and the walls on both sides of the dormitory are filled with burning charcoal braziers and huge fire pits. Firewood is constantly added twelve hours a day, so it is freezing cold outside, but it is freezing indoors. It's as hot as summer, and even ordinary people would be sweating profusely even if they were wearing single clothes!
Cao Cao was lying on the fire bed, covered with a thick tiger skin blanket, but there was not a drop of sweat on his face. His short body became even more dry and fleshless, like a skeleton.
Looking at his face again, his cheeks were sunken, black and purple, and filled with a strong aura of death. Only a pair of slender eyes flashed from time to time, proving that he was still alive!
¡°Prime Minister, it¡¯s time to take the decoction!¡±
"Okay, thank you for the help of these two miracle doctors!"
Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing came out of the side room. The former held a dark medicinal soup in his hand, which exuded a strong bitter taste. An attendant took it with both hands and took two small sips. After a while, he felt that his body was fine, and then he took a spoonful after a spoonful. Feed Cao Cao!
The latter stretched out three fingers and placed them on Cao Cao's Cun Guan ruler. After checking his pulse for a while, he took out a few silver needles and pierced several acupuncture points in his brain to help push the palace and activate blood circulation!
As early as half a year ago, the two miracle doctors lived in the Prime Minister's Mansion. They monitored Cao Cao day and night, cooked decoctions for him, and treated him carefully. Ginseng, deer antler, tiger bone, polygonatum countless precious medicinal materials were used, including folk prescriptions, Secret and ancient recipes have also been tried.
But Cao Cao took too much tiger and wolf medicine, and his body was too depleted. Even if the two miracle doctors tried their best, they could not save his condition and could only delay it as long as possible.
Especially since the beginning of autumn, Cao Cao's condition has become more serious and his health has completely deteriorated.?The meritorious officers and soldiers inspected them on behalf of their father. All the officers and men, big and small, were delighted, and the cheers could be heard dozens of miles away!
"However, Mr. Zhongde inspected everywhere, but there was no sign of Da Sima. Not in Nanzheng City, not in Xiameng Pass, and not in Jianmen Pass. Mr. Zhongde didn't know what to do, so he had to ask his father for his orders?" "
Cao Pi sat on the soft couch and opened the first memorial, which was sent by Cheng Yu from Hanzhong. The old man walked around for a long time and saw no sign of Xiao Yi, so he had to report it according to the facts!
Cheng Yu is also a smart person. He knows that Xiao Yi deliberately avoids seeing him. Even if he digs three feet in the ground, he still can't find him. He might as well save some energy!
Cao Cao is even smarter. He knows that his plan to "tune the tiger back to the mountain" has failed. Xiao Yi is obviously unwilling to submit obediently. Instead, he wants to hold heavy troops and wait and see the situation. One can imagine his ambition!
So what can I do? Xiao Yi has full wings and already has the ability to fight against others. In his heyday, he could barely suppress it, but now he is in his twilight years Alas!
