Sima Yi said with some emotion: "When Lu Bu first appeared, I thought he was just a brave but unscrupulous man. Although his force was unparalleled in the world, it was not difficult to deal with it.

I never thought that this person seemed rude and brave but was actually a traitor! Looking back on the past, when we think we are sure to win, the situation will turn sharply and lose. The reason is not that he is lucky than others. It is because Lu Bu's treacherousness is far above others! And his fierceness and cruelty are unprecedented in a thousand years. He is simply a hero who has emerged from nowhere!"

Cao Pi nodded when he thought of the past.

Then he said, "What's the use of talking about these now?"

Now we have to think of a way to change the current situation.”

He paused and said hopefully: "A person like my father will underestimate the enemy after winning one after another, so the Red Cliff will be defeated.

Perhaps it's time for Lu Bu to carelessly underestimate the enemy!"

Sima Yi frowned and was silent for a moment, shook his head, and said, "I'm afraid not! Of course, the old prime minister is also a great hero who is rare, but Lu Bu is better in this regard! This person is simply the most ferocious wolf. He always looks at his prey, but never relaxes his vigilance! It is too difficult to make him carelessly underestimate the enemy and reveal his flaws!"

Cao Pi felt very depressed and asked angrily: "Does our failure be decided by Zhongda's intention?"

Sima Yi said: "Prime Minister, I recently received news that not long ago, Lu Bu's army had fought against the Great Qin Empire, which spanned thousands of miles of oceans near Wujun and on the seas of Yizhou, and finally defeated the Great Qin Empire and recovered Yizhou.

…” Cao Pi was stunned, “Qin Army?”

Sima Yi explained: "This Qin is different from that Qin.

This Great Qin Empire is the powerful empire in the west that Ban Chao and others had previously served on missions."

Cao Pi suddenly realized and hurriedly said, "I have seen it in the book and heard from my father."

The Qin Empire is located in the west of the land, and is the most powerful country with our Han Dynasty.

According to records passed down, the capital of the Qin Empire is in a place called Rome. The city is very magnificent and is not inferior to our Chang'an and Luoyang.

And unlike our Central Plains, their buildings are built with huge stones, and the weather is very strict! The Qin Empire not only has the territory not inferior to the Han Dynasty in the Central Plains, but also has no disadvantage in population and military strength! Unfortunately, no one has been on the West since Ban Chao, so it is unclear what the Qin Empire is now.

Unexpectedly, they would come across thousands of miles and even fight with Lu Bu?"

Then his heart moved, looked at Sima Yi, and asked uncertainly: "Does Zhongda meant to unite the Qin Empire to deal with Lu Bu?"

Sima Yi said: "Maybe it is God's will to use the Great Qin Empire to fight against the King of Qin Lu Bu! Today, if you want to curb or even defeat Lu Bu, you can only rely on this Great Qin Empire!"

Cao Pi felt that what Sima Yi said made sense, but he also felt that this matter was not easy.

He frowned and said, "But, but it's not clear about the situation of the Qin Empire, and I don't know if they intend to advance eastward.

Furthermore, no one has been on missions to the West for more than a hundred years, so how to contact them is also a big problem!”

Looking at Sima Yi, hoping that he can give an answer.

Sima Yi said: "The Qin Empire today should be very strong.

Otherwise, they would not have crossed the seas and tried to open up their eastern territory.

It can also be seen that the Qin Empire is obviously ambitious and will make a comeback once it is organic."

Cao Pi nodded.

Sima Yi continued: "As for how to contact them.

You can find a way among merchants.

When my subordinates heard that the Western Regions were still under our control, some of our merchants had reached the Great Qin Empire far away.

You can contact the Qin Empire through these merchants."

Cao Pi said happily: "I almost forgot about this!"

He immediately said to Sima Yi: "Zhongda, you will find someone to find. If there is a result, you will immediately repay it!"

Sima Yi held his fists and agreed and left in a hurry.

Cao Pi walked to the door and looked up at the sky. A crack was opened in the originally cloudy sky, and a ray of sunlight shone down to illuminate the world.

Seeing this, Cao Pi couldn't help but feel happy.

In the evening of that day, the army led by Ailang entered Yumen Pass and happened to meet Ma Yunlu who was escorting food and grass. Because it was getting late, two men were stationed near Yumen Pass at the same time.

It was already late. After inspecting the army, Ailang returned to the tent, picked up the official documents placed on the table and looked at them. Seeing that there was nothing serious about it, he threw them back to the desk.

After looking outside the tent, I couldn't help but think of Yueying, what is she doing now?

As soon as he thought of this, his heart couldn't help but feel hot. He immediately stood up and left the big tent and walked towards Huang Yueying's tent behind the big tent.

Before entering the tent, I saw the lights in the tent illuminating a graceful figure.

Ailang was so itchy that he quickly entered the tent.

Suddenly, I saw a graceful figure wearing armor and cloak, combing her ponytail sitting not far away, looking at some manuscript, with her back facing the door.

Ailang's eyes lit up, thinking that Huang Yueying specially wore such a costume in order to increase the interest between the couple.

Ailang was so excited that he immediately walked behind Huang Yueying, and suddenly reached out and hugged Huang Yueying's shoulders.

Unexpectedly, Huang Yueying screamed like she was shocked.

Ai Lang couldn't help but be stunned, because the scream was obviously not Huang Yueying's voice! At this time, Huang Yueying turned her head, looking ashamed, angry and at a loss. This was not Huang Yueying, it was Ma Yunlu! Ai Lang jumped up like an electric shock and said at a loss: "That, you, you, me, uh, I have something to do, I'll say goodbye!"

After saying that, he ran away as if he ran away.

Running out of the tent, my heart was pounding, and countless question marks surged in my head. Why did Ma Yunlu be in Yueying's tent?

He shook his head and quickly returned to the tent.

That night, Ailang did not go to Huang Yueying's tent again and spent the night in the big tent.

Early the next morning, the army set out.

Ma Yunlu's logistics and supplies team also set off. Ma Yunlu rode a horse to Ailang, clasped his fists and said, "Lord, I'm going to say goodbye!"

The tone and expression between the eyebrows seemed to reveal a bit of indescribable charm.

Ailang was angry about what happened to Ma Yunlu last night, and felt a little embarrassed, and smiled and said, "Well, be careful on the road!"

Two blushings suddenly flew on Ma Yunlu's cheeks, but they returned to their cold appearance in a flash. Ailang thought he had read it wrong.

When he came to his senses, Ma Yunlu had already turned his head away.

Ailang couldn't help but look at Ma Yunlu's back and became stunned.

Huang Yueying came forward, looked at Ailang's gaze, and asked jokingly: "Don't you want to bear it?"

Ai Lang came back to his senses in shock, and yelled at the sky, then said seriously: "My little sister Yunlu is like a sister in my heart. Don't think about it!"

Huang Yueying smiled and stopped saying anything.

Ailang said: "Let's go."

Then he drove into the army and walked forward.

Huang Yueying immediately followed.

Ailang looked into the distance and said excitedly: "The problems in the Western Regions have finally been solved. Now we can concentrate on unifying the Central Plains!"

He immediately said to Huang Yueying: "I think the next step should be to attack Xichuan with all your strength. What do you think?"

Huang Yueying thought, "My husband's idea is of course reasonable. Liu Bei just suffered a crushing defeat, not only did he lose his troops, but he also lost the entire Xiliang. Generally speaking, the morale of his army was low, which was a great opportunity for our army to take advantage of the attack and slapped them in one fell swoop!..." Ailang asked, "But?"

Huang Yueying couldn't help but smile, and then said seriously: "Xichuan, the mountains and rivers are steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack! Didn't your husband also say that the road to Shu is more difficult than climbing to the blue sky?

It can be said that one man is the pass and ten thousand men cannot open it! Previously, although Ma Chao successfully broke through Jiameng Pass, he was blocked by Jiange and could not capture it for a long time. He suffered losses of troops and generals, and finally had to give up temporarily.

The difficulty of Shu Road is well-known! Therefore, my sister believes that there is no need to follow the usual thinking to carry out the next strategy.

We can transform our near-term goals from eliminating the enemy to weakening the enemy.

As long as the enemies of all sides are continuously weakened, at a certain time, unification of the world will naturally come naturally."

Ailang didn't understand Huang Yueying's meaning for a moment, and looked a little confused.

Huang Yueying said thoughtfully: "Liu Bei has been greatly weakened after this battle. Both military strength and morale can be said to have been weakened to a considerable extent, and it poses little threat to us.

Now, Cao Pi in the north and Sun Jian in the south are still very threatening.

Therefore, my sister thought that our next strategy was not to attack Liu Bei, but to use troops against Cao Pi and Sun Jian.

My younger sister personally believes that the next step is to attack Bingzhou, and she will first kill Cao Pi's left arm."

Ailang nodded thinking.

Huang Yueying glanced at Ailang and smiled and said, "Of course, this is just a little sister's opinion. What should I do in the end depends on my husband."

Ailang suddenly held Huang Yueying's slender hand.

Huang Yueying was startled and looked at Ailang foolishly.

He reacted in a terrifying manner, and immediately Xia Fei flew her cheeks, looked around worriedly, and said in a low voice in angrily, "Let me go!"

Ailang said angrily: "Do you know where you are wrong?"

Huang Yueying stood there, looking confused.

Ailang snorted: "The couple still talks such polite words, so we should punish you!"

Huang Yueying then realized it and couldn't help but smile.

Thinking that his palm was still held by his husband in public, he felt very uneasy, his whole body seemed to be burning, and he whispered in a low voice, "I was wrong! Let me go!"

"no!"

Ailang is very decisive.

When Huang Yueying saw this scene, she suddenly felt at a loss.
Chapter completed!
