Chapter 417
The battle in Cao Pi's camp is still not over, the raging fire is burning the main gate, it seems that it may spread to any place at any time!

The soldiers in charge of guarding the main gate were scrambling to put out the fire at this time, while the reinforcements who arrived belatedly rushed out of the main gate to chase after Sima Shi and others.

In the middle of the night, the inside and outside of Cao Pi's camp were already in chaos. The sound of burning fire, coupled with the sound of weapons colliding and fighting, could be regarded as a picture scroll in the middle of the night.

It's just that this picture looks a little too bloody and daunting!
Division Sima led his troops back along the original road, carefully avoiding the pursuers along the way. Since they had been hiding relatively secretly before, their traces were not exposed!

Even though there were enemy troops chasing after them in the camp, they couldn't tell Sima Division's position at all!
Therefore, even if they chased for a long distance, they still found nothing. For Master Sima, this trip can almost be said to be a complete victory!

Although he lost a lieutenant general in this battle, from the perspective of the overall situation, they have completed the task, but they don't know how much damage the fire caused to Cao Cao. If the loss is large enough, It was indeed able to appease Master Sima, the death of the lieutenant general!
Sima Division led his troops to rush to the outside of Luoyang City overnight, and the fire in Cao Pi's camp had already spread hundreds of miles away along the wind!

At this time, the enemy troops outside Luoyang City also knew the news. Although they had not received Cao Pi's order, they had already monitored the situation in Luoyang City on their own.

But now the four intersections in Luoyang City are almost full of enemy troops. Although there are not many of them, there are no blind spots anymore!
In the distance, Master Sima, who had just returned, watched Chengmai's situation in Luoyang from a distance.

At present, there are many enemy troops outside Luoyang City, and almost all the entrances have been sealed. If Master Sima leads his army back at this time, it is doomed to a fierce battle!
At this time, Sima Division's troops were less than a thousand, and even if he had to fight the enemy, his chances of winning were not very high!
After all, there are tens of thousands of enemy troops stationed outside this city. Even though they are scattered at various gates at this time, their number must be at least [-]!
So if it is a head-on charge, then Sima Shi is definitely not an opponent, unless Sima Yi can send troops to rescue together with a tacit understanding, in this way, the cooperation of the two sides can solve the current predicament!
But even if Sima Yi and Master Sima were father and son, he still couldn't make such an accurate prediction!
The fire in Cao Ying ignited, of course it provided Sima Yi with some information, but Sima Yi didn't dare to act rashly right now!

Because Master Sima has not shown up for a long time, if he opens the city gate and goes out to meet the enemy now, he may be able to deal with the enemy army outside the city and wipe them out!

But Sima Yi's losses will naturally not be small, and even the difference in losses between them will be several times greater!

After all, the defenders in the city have not fought for several years, while the soldiers under Cao Pi have been fighting outside all year round, eating and sleeping in the open!
So the difference in strength between the two is naturally incomparable, so Sima Yi must take this into consideration. If he charges head-on, he is definitely not an opponent. Now what he can borrow is the protection of the city wall!

So before doing anything right now, he has to seriously consider whether he should do it or not. After all, opening the city gate is not an easy task.

Once the gate of the city is opened, it is equivalent to cutting off all the means of survival. If you can't win with your back, then Luoyang City may become someone else's possession!

So even though Master Sima was still outside, Sima Yi still couldn't make fun of the city. After all, what Luoyang City represented was the lives of everyone in the city!

"General, there are enemy troops outside Luoyang City now, why don't we avoid their sharp edges first!"

The situation outside Luoyang City is not good, and Sima Si is also distressed by the current situation. Even though he had expected this kind of result, when all this really happened and appeared in front of him, he still felt a little nervous. Can't accept it!
Facing the suggestion of the captain next to him, Master Sima hesitated a little. It is not easy for Luoyang City to go back now, but if he does not do this now, but finds a place to hide and then he does not know how to wait until When and when will I be able to return to Luoyang City again!

Therefore, what Master Sima is currently struggling with is whether to temporarily give up and return to Luoyang City when he has a bowel movement.

In addition, if he gave up, what should he do?

Sima Shi didn't know how to make this decision for a while, looking at Luoyang City from a distance, he was eager to return, but he could only maintain the current state!
After hesitating for more than ten minutes, Master Sima finally made a decision. He didn't want to put his life on the outside of Luoyang City. Even though it might give him a chance to return to Luoyang City, he didn't want to take the risk !

"Withdraw!"

Sima Shi said these two words with a gloomy face. This was a decision he was absolutely unwilling to make, but at this moment he had to make it!

Sima Division led the remnant army, gradually withdrew from Luoyang City, and plunged into the vast mountains and forests!

He needs to wait for an opportunity, an opportunity that allows him to return to Luoyang City without risk!
So now, before this opportunity comes, he must wait and be patient!

At the same time, the city of Luoyang is also worried about the fire in Caoying!
On the city wall, Sima Yi, Sima Zhao, Lu Meng, and Jiang Wei are all gathered at this moment!

The current situation is somewhat similar to when the plan was made before, but at this moment there is one less person than before!
"General Sima should have completed his mission, but I don't know where he is now!"

Lu Meng mentioned casually, watching the fire in the distance gradually weakening, what he was thinking in his heart was actually not Master Sima at all.

However, under such circumstances, if he could say this sentence, it would definitely attract the attention of Sima Yi and his son!
"Right now, the enemy army outside the city has sealed all four entrances, it seems that General Sima should have escaped after he succeeded!
Otherwise, Cao Pi would never let them guard the entrance of Luoyang City! "

Jiang Wei actually did some analysis on this matter. In comparison, he was naturally more serious than Lu Meng, at least he didn't think about other things!
"Now Cao Pi has suffered a lot, but our loss is too great. If Master Sima is killed in battle, then this incident will naturally deal a big blow to our army!
Now that I think about it, it's really unwise to do it. If I had known the final result, I would definitely not agree with this suggestion! "

Sima Yi supported the city wall with his hands and complained. Sima Shi's safety has always worried him very much. After all, father and son love each other deeply, although when Sima Shi left, he was able to be very decisive and resolute.

But when Sima Shi suddenly fell into danger, his previous resoluteness and decisiveness disappeared without a trace in an instant!

"Father, although there is no news about my brother, my boy can be sure that my brother may not be alive!

If not, Cao Pi's side might not be so quiet! "

While Sima Yi was sighing sadly, Sima Zhao calmly tried to persuade Sima Yi.

It seemed that the life and death of Master Sima at this time hardly touched Sima Zhao much!

Of course, this may be true as Sima Zhao said. He firmly believed that Master Sima would not be in danger, so he did not feel nervous or worried at all!

However, most people believed that Sima Zhao didn't care about Master Sima. Even though the two were brothers, Sima Zhao didn't have much affection for his elder brother!

Therefore, even if Master Sima is in a dangerous situation, he can still remain indifferent and chat happily!
As soon as Sima Zhao said these words, almost everyone fell into silence. They each had their own thoughts!
Lu Meng was guessing whether this matter would be like Sima Zhao said, Sima Shi was not in deep danger at all, and he would return to Luoyang City again one day!
As for the current result, Lu Meng is still a little worried. If Sima Shi really returns safely, then this is not a good thing for Lu Meng!

However, although Lu Meng has this thought in his heart.But he couldn't express it anyway. After all, this is an idea that can completely destroy the current cooperation, so Lu Meng can only think about it in his heart!

At this time, Jiang Wei was thinking about the situation in Cao Ying. Whether Master Sima was alive or dead, it had no effect on Jiang Wei.

After all, as long as Cao Pi can be injured, then Jiang Wei will be satisfied enough, because he has only one purpose, and that is to completely eliminate Cao Pi, so that Du Huo will no longer be troubled by Cao Pi's affairs!
"Master Sima is in prison, of course it is precarious. Originally, I planned to send troops to meet him, but the current situation is too pessimistic. If I leave rashly, it will definitely cause chaos, so I simply gave up this idea." idea!
But now that I think about it, I don't know whether it's right or wrong to do this. After all, he and I are father and son. If I just give up on him like this, I really feel uneasy and extremely sad! "

Sima Yi said this on purpose to Lv Meng and Jiang Wei, and now he naturally wants to send troops to rescue him, even if he doesn't know where Sima Shi is now.

But he can't do this. On the one hand, for the sake of the overall situation, he can't bet on the lives of the soldiers. On the other hand, Lu Meng and Jiang Wei will naturally not agree. After all, this decision will also directly affect them. The fate of the two!
