Chapter 402 Am I afraid of him?
From the perspective of future generations, the Troubled Times of the Three Kingdoms is indeed a magnificent history.
When it comes to the Three Kingdoms, of course there were starvation and death everywhere and rivers of blood, but what is more talked about by future generations is the loyalty and righteousness, wisdom and courage, and the heroic spirit that galloped through the world.
And the people of the Sima family - specifically Sima Yi's lineage, don't seem to have anything to do with this heroic spirit.
At the beginning of time travel, Li Qi just wanted to survive.
Later, after taking Yizhou, I began to have a little vision for the future. This vision was not a clear goal. The upper limit was to become the emperor, and the lower limit was that Sima Yan could not be the emperor.
Today, more than ten years later, Li Qi finally completed the "lower limit".
Without Sima Yi, the founder, Sima Shi, Sima Zhao would not be able to dominate the government, let alone Sima Yan.
After beheading Sima Yi, Guan Yu stepped forward and asked Li Qidao: "What should we do with these prisoners?"
Li Qi thought for a while and said, "Send them to Jingzhou and let them farm."
This was the only reason Li Qi could let them live.
If they were just imprisoned, it would be a waste of food. If you can't feed your own people, why would you keep prisoners? Li Qi asked himself that he was not so upright and upright;
If you stay in the military camp to serve as troops, these guys will run away or become spies of Cao Wei, or even defect during the war.
If you trap them all and kill them all, I'm afraid it will leave you with a violent reputation, which is not worth it.
As long as these guys didn't take up arms against Cao Wei, but were forced to open up wasteland, Cao Wei probably wouldn't do anything to their families. After all, their family members could also open up wasteland in Cao Wei, and they were also a kind of labor force.
As long as the world is unified, it is not impossible for them to reunite.
However, those younger family members may not be able to survive, because in order to expand the population, Cao Wei popularized the "birth system".
The so-called "birth woman" simply means a married woman, and her husband is still alive.
Cao Wei's "birth system" means that your husband lives and fights on the front line, while you give birth to other men in the rear, thereby achieving the goal of rapidly increasing the population.
After hearing Li Qi's arrangement, the prisoners of the Wei army thanked him one after another.
It is not easy for them to find a way out. They don't have to fight on the front line, they just work in the fields, and they can have food to eat. Of course, it is a matter worth celebrating.
After handling these matters, Li Qi returned to the camp to rest.
Pang Tong followed closely behind.
Li Qi turned around and asked: "You want to ask me why you must kill Sima Yi?"
Pang Tong said: "Tong is really unpredictable."
Li Qi smiled and said: "Is this a good reason to hate him?"
Pang Tong said: "Okay. It's just that the Sima family is quite prestigious in Hanoi, so I'm afraid it will cause more obstacles to my lord."
Li Qi sneered: "I dare to be an enemy of such a big Cao Wei, but what can a mere Sima family without Sima Yi do to me?"
Li Qi must deal with the aristocratic family.
However, the aristocratic family system is huge and involves many things, so it cannot be solved overnight.
Now that Sima Yi killed him because he "refused to surrender", it was justifiable. He could take the lead in weakening the influence of the Sima family in the upper echelons, and then gradually pursue it.
However, Li Qi believed that Sima Yi should still thank himself for leaving him a good reputation of loyalty and loyalty in the new chapter of history, so that he no longer had to be scolded.
The destruction of Sima Yi's army cast a lingering haze over Hefei City.
In addition, Lu'an City is also dangerous.
Regardless of whether Li Qi really wanted to attack Lu'an City or used Lu'an City to lure Sima Yi to rescue him, at least Li Qi understood the strategic significance of Lu'an City. Otherwise, how could he guarantee that Sima Yi would rescue him?
Jiang Ji then discussed with Zhang He: "Zhongda would rather die than surrender, and he is indeed a role model for us. However, after this battle, He Fei's strength has weakened again, and Li Qi obviously wants to take Lu'an City. What should we do?"
Zhang Hedao: "We can ask your majesty to send troops from Qing and Xuzhou to reinforce Lu'an City in case of any unexpected events."
Jiang Ji nodded: "What Jun Yi said is true, but military affairs exchanges take a long time, so I'm afraid it's too late."
Zhang He was right to think about it. Since Li Qi was determined to capture Lu'an City, he might send troops there again at any time, maybe even on the way now. After the military information was sent to Yedu, he would then send orders to Qing and Xuzhou respectively. If the generals of Qing and Xuzhou send troops to Lu'an City again, the day lilies may be cold.
So Zhang He took the initiative to invite Ying and said: "While Li Qi has not sent troops to Lu'an City yet, I will lead a team of troops to garrison there. However, after I left, Hefei City became much weaker, so Zitong had to hold on. You must not go out to fight."
Jiang Ji sighed: "Jun Yi, just rest assured. Now that I think about it, Sima Zhongda's judgment at the beginning was correct. It's a pity..."
It's a pity that Cao Pi didn't listen.
Jiang Ji did not dare to say this sentence, but everyone who listened understood it.
Thinking back to the time when 100,000 soldiers and horses were entrenched in Hefei, even if Li Qi had three heads and six arms, he couldn't even think of moving them. But now that Zhang He has left, there are only 20,000 defenders left in Hefei City, and Gao Lan and Wen Ji have been reduced. , there are very few generals available. If Li Qi sends out all his troops and besieges Hefei City with all his strength, Jiang Ji will probably be in trouble.
At this time, Li Qi and Pang Tong were playing backgammon in the open space in front of the camp. Seeing that Li Qi was about to lose, a scout suddenly reported: "Zhang He led a group of soldiers and horses to the direction of Lu'an City."
Li Qi decisively threw away the stone he was about to draw a circle with and said: "No more, it's important to discuss military aircraft matters."
Pang Tong: "..."
Following Li Qi into the camp, Pang Tong asked behind him: "Isn't it already expected by us that Zhang and He will divide their forces and go to Liu'an City? Is there anything to discuss? You are just afraid of losing."
Li Qi sneered: "Am I afraid of losing? It's like no one has ever lost before."
Pang Tong: "I have never lost."
Li Qi: "... If you are like this, when you have the opportunity, you and Kong Ming will do it."
Pang Tong said disdainfully: "Am I afraid of him?"
Li Qi smiled and said: "Being afraid or not is not the same thing as losing. Our enemies don't seem to be afraid of us. We should lose as usual."
Pang Tong also smiled and said: "It is useless to argue about this kind of thing. Facts can speak louder than words. Now Zhang He led his troops to Lu'an City. He Fei's garrison is estimated to be about 20,000 people, and we have 40,000 elite soldiers, twice as many
For him, we can order a strong attack."
Li Qidao: "After these few battles with Jiang Ji, it is probably unrealistic to lure him out to weaken his troops. It is inevitable to attack He Fei by force. However, let's wait until Zhang He goes further. Take advantage of this time to attack the rear
It is still relatively stable, Wu Lan can be adjusted, and Fu Tong has led the soldiers and horses from Ruxukou to come to help in the battle."
Pang Tong nodded: "After a few months, it's our turn to live in Hefei City." If you like to travel through the Three Kingdoms, please collect it from Luocao Beginning: (https://www.wuxiayue.com) Traveling through the Three Kingdoms, from Luocao
