Recently, Xiao Yi issued three memorials in a row: it was recommended to cancel the southern expedition and recuperate; it was recommended that a small victory would be enough and the army should return to the court; it was recommended not to cross the river and be careful of ambush!
Cao Pi attached great importance to these three suggestions and thought about them seriously, but unfortunately he did not accept any of them!
Xiao Yi was thinking about strategy and tactics, while Cao Pi was thinking about consolidating imperial power. Their starting points were different, so their choices were naturally different.
Being cautious, Cao Pi still issued a decree, asking Cao Xiu to use his troops carefully to avoid being ambushed by the Wu army. However, the two places were more than 1,300 miles apart, and it would take a day and a night at the earliest for the decree to be delivered to Cao Xiu.
"Your Majesty!¡ª¡ªYour Majesty!"
"Golden elixir, hurry up!"
After working hard day and night, Cao Pi was exhausted. After issuing the edict, Cao Pi's addiction to elixirs broke out again. He was sweating like rain, his hands and feet were trembling, and even his consciousness was a little blurred.
The confidant eunuch quickly took out a few golden elixirs and stuffed them into Cao Pi's mouth. He wanted to serve them with tea, but there was no tea at the banquet. There was only a bowl of lukewarm and fragrant sturgeon soup, which was suitable for serving the elixirs. Use
Seeing that the emperor drank the fish soup, the civil and military ministers also tasted it one after another. It was fresh, fragrant, and endless aftertaste. Some people drank several bowls in a row, and they were still unsatisfied. It was indeed the soup cooked by the Yangtze River Fish King!
"Huh!¡ª¡ªAlas!"
After a while, Cao Pi also recovered. Looking at the empty soup bowl on the table, feeling the strong fishy smell in his mouth, he couldn't help but sigh secretly, everything was God's will!
God¡¯s will allows him to march south, and God¡¯s will allows him to garrison at the mouth of the Xunyang River. God¡¯s will sends him a big sturgeon. As for victory or defeat, life or death, his manpower has been exhausted, so he can only obey God¡¯s arrangements!
Thinking of this, Cao Pi felt exhausted physically and mentally, and was about to go back to his dormitory to rest. But before he could leave his seat, another messenger came to the palace, not from the east, but from the west!
"Woo!Woo! Woo!"
The envoy was covered in manuscripts and rushed into the palace crying. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed. His face looked like weathered weather. It was obvious that he had traveled a long distance and suffered a lot on the way!
This frightened everyone present. Only when senior ministers and relatives of the emperor died of illness would envoys be sent to report the funeral to the emperor. Who passed away?
"Tell me quickly, who are you going to mourn for?"
"Your Majesty, King Rencheng has passed away!"
"What, my little brother with a yellow beard!"
¡°Plop!¡±
Among the Cao brothers, Cao Zhang is famous for his bravery and staunchness. His lifelong goal is to be strong and tenacious, to ignore difficulties, to imitate Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, who led 100,000 horses across the desert, to drive away the Rong and Di, and to make great achievements!
Therefore, as early as the eleventh year of Jian'an, Cao Zhang personally led tens of thousands of tiger and wolf troops on an expedition to the Western Regions to realize his life dream, and did not participate in the subsequent battle for the reserve position!
Because of this, Cao Zhang had a very good relationship with his brothers. After Cao Pi became emperor, he sent envoys to the Western Regions, named Cao Zhang the King of Rencheng, and gave him royal seals, golden armor, brocade robes, etc., and they also exchanged letters frequently. , greeting and caring for each other, the brotherhood is very strong!
Suddenly, he learned that his brother was gone. Cao Pi slipped to the ground as if he was struck by lightning. He couldn't stop his tears from flowing down - his compatriots had fallen like limbs, and now it was the decisive battle again. It was a very ominous sign!
"Tell me quickly, why did my third brother suddenly die?"
On the other side, Cao Xiong was also crying loudly, grabbing the messenger tightly and asking about the situation?
Cao Zhang is only thirty-two years old this year. He has always been physically strong and has the courage to handle fierce beasts. Last summer, he sent an envoy back to the court to offer his victory and a large amount of trophies. He claimed that everything was fine and told his mother and brothers not to worry about him. Suddenly it disappeared?
"Report to the king: After King Rencheng led his army to the west, he met up with General Ma Mengqi, attacked the city and captured the territory, and won consecutive battles. He quickly wiped out the thirty-six countries in the Western Region, and fought all the way to the west of Congling!
He also fought successively with Dayuezhi, Anxi, and Kangju countries, and he was also invincible. He conquered hundreds of countries, large and small, opened up thousands of miles of land, and everyone under the banner surrendered, and he gained countless treasures!
Last autumn, King Rencheng led a single force and marched south into the territory of Shendu Kingdom. He defeated the coalition forces of various states in the upper reaches of the Ganges River, beheaded 200,000 people, captured eleven kings of all sizes, and seized countless trophies. number!
However, during the fierce battle, King Rencheng was unfortunately hit by a poisonous arrow in his ribs. The doctors tried all kinds of treatment to no avail, and he died in the military camp on the eighth day of December, the fourth year of Huangchu's winter!
King Rencheng is on his deathbed?Xiao Yi's military style is evident everywhere. Every teacher must have his disciples!
"Your Majesty, Lu Xun successfully set up an ambush and severely damaged all our troops. I'm afraid he won't let it go. We should send someone to remind General Cao Zhen to be careful of the Wu army coming to attack!"
¡°Zhongda¡¯s words make sense, cough¡hurry up and send someone to inform General Zidan to beware of a sneak attack by the Wu army!¡±
Among the panic, only Sima Yi remained calm. It is not terrible to lose the battle. What is terrible is that if you lose again and again, it will be completely out of control.
Unfortunately, it was too late after all. Before the messenger left the palace gate, a new battle report came:
¡®After Lu Xun won the ambush, he immediately led his army across the river to the north, attacked Cao Zhen¡¯s camp under cover of night, and burned all the warships, grain, grass, and cargo inside!
"Cao Zhen was unprepared in advance and was caught off guard. He lost tens of thousands of men and horses, and even the main camp was lost. He had to lead the remaining troops to retreat to the Hefei area. The Wu army then pursued and killed him'
Both armies suffered a disastrous defeat, with no less than a hundred thousand men and horses lost, and the warships that were finally built were destroyed. At this point, the Southern Expedition was a complete failure!
