The Assassin Empire of the Three Kingdoms

Dong Zhao analyzed the current situation for Cao Pi. Wei Guo's future was bleak, but they had to make a last-ditch effort.There are less than 500 people around Cao Pi, and everyone is exhausted. They have no plan for the next step.To the south is definitely not possible, to the east is the sea, to the west is the mountains, and only the north may have a glimmer of life.Liu Ye suggested to disguise themselves and move forward lightly, so as not to let Long Jun know about them.Cao Pi agreed.

However, this place is in the wilderness, and I didn't bring anything with me when I came out. How can I disguise myself?There are no two nearby villages and towns, and it is very difficult to find clothes for ordinary people.Just as everyone was dressing up indiscriminately, the sound of soldiers and horses walking outside the woods came.The frightened people hurriedly extinguished the torches, lay down on the ground, and did not dare to make a sound.

I heard a person outside say: "General, Yecheng is ahead, do you want to send someone to check the situation first?"

A voice said: "No need, Lu Xun only has [-] soldiers and thousands of soldiers. Once our army arrives, they will scatter like birds and beasts, and we will be able to take back Yecheng in an instant!"

Liu Ye's ears are good, and he seemed to feel that it was familiar. He lowered his voice and said, "It seems to be Sima Zhao? Did Sima Yi lead his troops back?"

Cao Pi and Dong Zhao looked at each other, and were about to send someone out to inquire.Suddenly, a soldier shouted: "Who, come out! The arrow must have been shot!" Then there was the sound of soldiers' armor rubbing against their weapons, and the sound of bowstrings being pulled.

Liu Ye hurriedly said: "Is Lin Wai General Sima? I am Sikong Dong Zhao, Your Majesty is here!"

After a long time outside the woods, a person said: "Come out! Let the general have a look!"

Liu Ye got up slowly and walked out of the woods.Sure enough, it was Sima Zhao's soldiers and horses. Looking at the winding troops and horses, Liu Ye's heart was relieved.Sima Zhao quickly dismounted: "Where is Your Majesty?"

Dong Zhao protected Cao Pi and came out of the woods.In the headquarters all night, I was tired and hungry, and I had tossed and tossed for a while just to pretend to be a disguise.Cao Pi's hair was fluffy, and his clothes were almost full of dust and holes.But those eyes prove that he is Cao Pi.Sima Zhao bowed to Cao Pi: "It's good that His Royal Highness is not injured, how about Your Majesty?"

Dong Zhaodao: "Your Majesty has passed away, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has just ascended the throne. The one in front of you is Your Majesty. Why don't you give a big gift?"

Sima Zhao didn't move, looked Cao Pi up and down, and said: "The city of Ye was captured, His Highness the Crown Prince escaped, but left His Majesty to the Dragon Army. Since it is said that His Highness the Crown Prince has become His Majesty now, I dare to ask, can His Highness the Crown Prince escape?" Imperial jade seal?"

Liu Ye said: "Things are in a hurry, the dragon army suddenly attacked the city, and they didn't have time to rub their hands to bring out those things! Now that the general is here, it's fine, and lead the troops to recapture the city of Ye, and hold the enthronement ceremony for His Majesty again!"

Sima Zhao said coldly: "Whether Your Majesty will let His Royal Highness the crown prince succeed you is not certain. A person who doesn't even want the country, what face does he have to be the crown prince of Wei?"

"Bastard!" Dong Zhao said angrily, "As a subject, you actually talk to His Majesty like this!"

Cao Pi waved his hand: "Sima Aiqing, it doesn't matter if I am Your Majesty, the important thing is to take back Yecheng. I wonder how many troops General Sima brought? Is the general's army behind?"

Sima Zhao said: "I have [-] soldiers and horses here. My father leads the army and will arrive shortly thereafter. The mob in Lu Xun's team can take this city of Ye before my father arrives!"

Seeing that Sima Zhao was so arrogant, the three already guessed that he would suffer, but no one reminded him.Sima Zhao asked someone to pull a car and let Cao Pi take it. Liu Ye, Dong Zhao and others who came out with Cao Pi had to walk.Under the leadership of Sima Zhao, this group of people who had just escaped from Yecheng came towards Yecheng again.

When Lu Xun occupied Yecheng, he didn't care about rest and celebration, and immediately ordered the four gates to be closed. While sending Du Yu to continue to fight for the captured soldiers in Yecheng, he asked Huang Xu to strengthen the defense.He already had a premonition of the approaching danger. Sima Yi's army was hundreds of miles away, and the cavalry would arrive within half a day. If the defense of Ye City could not be arranged before dawn, it would be too late when the enemy arrived.

"Report...! General, we found the Wei army [-] miles outside the city! There are a large number of people, no less than [-]!" Tan Ma quickly rushed to Lu Xun's side.

Huang Xu heard: "It's really fast!"

Du Yu said: "The city of Ye is strong, and we shouldn't have brought siege equipment with us so soon. We already have 5000 troops. If we only have this number of people, we can still handle it. Join Sima Yi's army behind us. But it's dangerous."

"What are you afraid of? I don't believe that His Majesty will ignore us, as long as we defend Yecheng, we will be the winners!" Huang Xu didn't care at all.

Lu Xun said: "Since we have reached this point, we can only take one step at a time. I hope His Majesty will receive my letter and send reinforcements. At present, all we can do is wait and hold Yecheng and wait for rescue! Two, Cheng If you fail to watch this battle, everyone prepare!"

Sima Zhao stopped the army and horses, and looked at the Dragon Army battle flag flying high above the city of Ye, the disgust in his heart immediately surged up.Order the sharp archer to shoot down the battle flag.However, for some reason, the sharp archer fired several arrows, but he didn't even touch the corner of the battle flag.Sima Zhao was furious, and immediately beheaded the archer.A few more people were found, but the result remained the same.Sima Zhao was furious and was about to attack the city immediately.

Dong Zhao hurriedly said: "General, don't be reckless. As far as I know, the commander of the Long Army is Lu Xun, and there are people like Huang Xu and Du Yu under his command. They must have made preparations, and the general's soldiers and horses are exhausted from afar. I didn't bring siege equipment, so I thought I could surround Yecheng and wait for the arrival of the general's army."

"Hmph! Du Yu, a traitor, actually betrayed his motherland!" Sima Zhao dismissed him: "Why do you need my father to come with a mere [-] mobs? I lead the elite, not those idiots in the city!" Sima Zhao no longer reasoned against Dong Zhao. , turned his head and said: "Send someone to scold Zhan, I want to see what these brave people in the Dragon Army look like!"

It was already dawn, and the people on the top of the city could see clearly.Wei Jun came here as a young general, judging by Zhan Qi, he should be inextricably linked with Sima Yi.Du Yu has a good look.Seeing the thin figure on the white horse, he said, "It should be Sima Zhao! Sima Yi has two sons. The eldest son, Sima Shi, was trampled by General Dianwei and became a cripple. This is the second son, Sima Zhao. He is a very good father." Demeanor, sinister and cunning, be careful."

"Another one is dying, I'll meet him!" Huang Xu turned around and walked down the city.Lu Xun hurriedly called out: "Brother Huang can't do it. Our army is small and most of them are surrendered soldiers. As long as he doesn't attack, we will defend Yecheng. Our goal is to wait for His Majesty's reinforcements."

The scolding soldiers in the city shouted louder and louder. They didn't know Lu Xun, so they could only scold Long Fei. They almost scolded Long Fei from outside the Great Wall to now.With the arrival of noon, the weather became more and more annoying. After scolding the soldiers all morning, they felt that their throats began to smoke, and they could not speak clearly.However, Ye City remained silent and completely silent.

During the period, Sima Zhao guessed that Lu Xun and the others had already run away if they didn't hear that he was leading the army.They shot a group of soldiers and horses to test it out, but as you can imagine, a burst of arrows killed most of them, and the rest fled back in a hurry.Seeing that the scolding had no effect, Sima Zhao ordered that the whole army get off their horses and rest under the city of Ye, bury their pots and make food, and deliberately lure Lu Xun to attack.

Huang Xu wanted to kill him a long time ago, but was held down by Lu Xun and Du Yu.Seeing Sima Zhao's actions, Lu Xun was even more convinced that Sima Zhao did not have siege equipment, so it seemed that he would not be able to attack the city today.

After a few days of tossing, Sima Zhao was exhausted.He happened to run into a turtle with a shrinking head, which made him very annoyed.If there is no place to vent your anger, you have to find someone to vent your anger on, and Cao Pi just hit the muzzle of the gun.Cao Pi originally wanted to ask Sima Zhao about the battle situation in the Yellow River, but Liu Ye said that it would be good to call, but now that Cao Pi is living under the fence, he thinks it is better to go in person.

Before Cao Pi could speak, Sima Zhao said first, "His Royal Highness has only so many loyal ministers under his command. Those dignitaries are not loyal. Why don't they come out with His Royal Highness today? Even if they don't come out, they should cause some trouble for Lu Xun in the city. So that we can attack the city, and all of them will become obedient citizens of Long Fei overnight, and I don’t know if the Wei people are not good enough or something else!"

"Sima Zhao, you!" Dong Zhao heard that Sima Zhao was humiliating Cao Pi and venting his anger through Cao Pi.

Cao Pi stopped Dong Zhao: "What the general said is true! My Cao family father and son have been traveling for so many years, but there are not many officials in the center. From now on, Wei will only have General Sima and his son!"

Sima Zhao looked at Cao Pi, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "It seems that your Cao family is not suitable to be emperor again, why not give it to my father!"

"Bastard! Sima Zhao, do you want to rebel?" Dong Zhao drew out his sword.The moment Dong Zhao drew his sword, the soldiers around Sima Zhao also drew their swords and pointed at Cao Pi and others.It seems that as long as Sima Zhao gives an order, any of these people will do whatever they want, regardless of whether you are the emperor or the prince.

People have to bow their heads under the eaves.Cao Pi now finally understands what it means to be warm and cold.He is very grateful that Dong Zhao is such a man who dares to draw his sword for himself and the Cao family by his side.Seeing the truth in adversity, Liu Ye didn't say a word at this time, quietly watching the movement of the two sides, his eyes kept rolling in his eye sockets, and his body unconsciously moved towards Sima Zhao.

Cao Pi pressed down Dong Zhao's sword: "Both of you are important ministers of our Wei State. If Wei State can survive this crisis, I, Cao Pi, are willing to give up the throne. It is difficult for me, Cao Pi, to inherit the throne because of my virtue. , is not as good as Long Fei's martial arts, why should he be the emperor!"

"Your Majesty!" Dong Zhao didn't know what to say, and knelt down on the ground, crying bitterly.

Sima Zhao laughed and said, "Okay! One look is sure! Words can't prove it!" Sima Zhao waved his hand, and a soldier took a pen, ink, paper and inkstone.Cao Pi looked up to the sky and sighed, for the family in the city, for the Cao clan, and for his father's body, Cao Pi could only endure this humiliation.Gritting his teeth, he had no choice but to write his own edict of conditional abdication.
