Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 499 Who can withstand this?
"Zhongda, news came from Yecheng today that Cao Pi has personally led his troops to Henei."

"I'm not too worried about anything else, but..."

"Our soldiers have been following the Cao family for generations. Once Cao Pi comes, I'm afraid people will be unsettled and Cao Pi will find an opportunity to take advantage of them."

Inside the tent, Cao Zhi listened to Yu Jin and Sima Yi discussing how to deal with Cao Pi, and he felt uncomfortable.

It's hard to describe this feeling.

He hated Sima Yi and Yu Jin for rebelling against the Cao family, but he was also worried that Cao Pi would win in the end and he would be doomed.

Cao Zhi had gone through so many things and he figured it out when he was in Henei.

No matter what, it would never be his turn to inherit Cao Cao's throne.

Right now, he just wants to save his life.

Just think about it yourself, being left in Jiangdong by Xing Daorong might have been the best choice.

unfortunately
I was unable to decide my own destiny back then, and it is still the same today.

Even though Cao Zhi was sitting in the main seat now, he had thousands of thoughts in his mind, but who would care about him?

"It doesn't matter. What if Cao Pi comes? Once the weapons are on, who cares whether his last name is Cao or Sima?"

That's true.

Once the fight starts, there is no turning back.

Besides, according to the current intelligence, Cao Pi did not bring many soldiers and horses. If a battle breaks out, it is still unknown who will win and who will lose!

just
The key is how to make the first cut!
Of course, it's okay to just go ahead and do it, but I'm afraid there will be unexpected events, so I have to think carefully about it.

Then he asked, "Zhongda, have you ever thought about how to really charge in and kill?"

Sima Yi naturally knew what was going on.

Now he said with confidence: "The key is naturally still our Prince Zhi, or right now it should be said that it lies with Prince Chenliu."

As he said this, he looked at Cao Zhi, who was a little embarrassed.

How could this not be embarrassing? For example, the title of King of Chenliu was completely given by himself and was not recognized by outsiders at all.

When Cao Cao died, he only said that Cao Pi would be his successor, and there was no arrangement at all for his other sons.

Later, after Cao Pi became emperor, brothers Cao Zhang, Cao Xiong and others were given the throne, but Cao Zhi, the rebel, got nothing.

Therefore, the title of "Prince of Chenliu" made Cao Zhi himself feel a little embarrassed, not to mention others.

But at this moment I really have no choice. Even if I don't agree with this title, I can't bring it up.

Seeing Sima Yi looking at him, even though he was somewhat reluctant, he could only respond: "General Sima, if you have any strategies that I can use, please tell me."

Sima Yi was very satisfied with Cao Zhi's performance.

It feels really good to have the Cao family under complete control!

He then said, "I have heard that the Prince of Chenliu is a very talented writer. Can you write an article to denounce Cao Pi's cruel heart?"

"We, the righteous men, are here to uphold justice, eliminate Cao Pi, and make Prince Chenliu the emperor."

Cao Zhi knew it very well.

If I write this stuff, I will be the sinner of the entire Cao family!
After all, for others to write this kind of article is just a routine operation before the war, but if it is written by one's own family, it is a completely different concept!

If your family members say that you are no good, then does that mean you are really no good?
Once this thing gets out, there will be too many people who can use it to make articles!

Cao Zhi realized that things had come to this point, and he no longer wanted to compete with Cao Pi as he did in the past.

Could Cao Zhi's life be easy if he just rejected Sima Yi?

So even though he was reluctant, he could only nod and agree. As for how to write it, Cao Zhi had his own thoughts. He had to be careful when writing, and he couldn't just follow Sima Yi's advice.
In this way, both sides made their own preparations, and soon Cao Pi arrived in Hexi County, where Sima Yi's army was located.

The two armies faced off, but they were all familiar faces.

Amid billowing smoke and the roar of war drums, the two armies faced off on a plain in Hexi County.

Cao Pi was wearing armor, holding a long sword in his hand, staring at Cao Zhi opposite him with lightning eyes.

To be honest, before arriving in Hexi County, Cao Pi even had a glimmer of hope in his heart, hoping that his brother would turn back and save him some trouble.

pity…

Until the two armies faced off and Cao Pi saw Cao Zhi also on the front line, he completely gave up such hope.

Cao Zhi on the opposite side looks very similar to Cao Pi.

They also wore shining armor, wielded sharp blades, and had expressions as cold and hard as ice.

Feeling the gaze of Sima Yi beside him,

A trace of sadness flashed across Cao Zhi's eyes, but it was soon replaced by determination. He shouted, "Brotherhood is all over today!"

Cao Pi was furious when he heard this!
I haven't said anything yet, but it's his turn to speak?
"Don't talk about brothers, just talk about victory or defeat!" Cao Pi's voice was low and full of murderous intent.

At this time, soldiers from both armies rushed in like a tide, with trumpets sounding, horses galloping, and dust flying.

Wherever the iron hooves stepped, the grass and trees trembled and the earth cried.

Cao Zhi didn't want to fight, but it was obvious that he had no choice today.

Seeing that Cao Zhi became mute after speaking one sentence, Sima Yi could not let him go.

He stepped forward and shouted, "Cao Pi! You are cruel and merciless. You have framed meritorious officials and killed loyal officials. You have no moral integrity towards the people and have caused them to suffer. Why don't you abdicate quickly and let the Prince of Chenliu inherit the throne!"

When Cao Pi heard the word "King of Chenliu", he became furious. For a moment, he really wanted to forget the promise he made to his mother to spare Cao Zhi's life. He just wanted to kill Cao Zhi directly and put an end to it all.

Just when a surge of anger was rising to my head, I heard a clear and stern shout from the side!

"Zhi'er! Do you know what you are doing?!"

Isn't this voice Madam Bian's?
Cao Zhi was stunned when he heard this familiar voice!
Soon, in the crowd, next to Cao Pi, he saw his mother, also wearing armor and riding a horse.

Mother...when will you learn to ride a horse...

But she is my mother after all!
With just one glance, Cao Zhi saw clearly that it was indeed his mother.

I didn't know what to say for a moment, so I could only call out instinctively: "Mom, why are you here?"

Madam Bian shouted, "Rebellious son! Get off your horse quickly! Are you going to point your sword at your mother?"

Who can resist such words?

No one can point a sharp knife at his own mother!

"Bang!"

Cao Zhi suddenly burst into tears and dropped the sword in his hand.

His body was shaking on the warhorse, and he looked like he was about to give up and surrender.

Sima Yi, who was standing next to him, was shocked when he saw this.

In fact, as soon as he saw Lady Bian appear, he knew something was wrong and had been paying attention to Cao Zhi's actions.

Seeing that he was about to fall off his horse, he quickly acted quickly and caught him.
