Great Wei Nengchen

"Ok!"

It turns out that Cao Pi has a yellow horse, which is a descendant of "Claw Yellow Feidian". It runs like flying, has long endurance, and has a docile and obedient personality.

Unexpectedly, the yellow horse suddenly fell ill. After discussion, the officials in charge of driving chose this white horse to replace it. Because it was a temporary replacement, Cao Pi had never seen it before, let alone rode it!

"The auspicious time has come, Your Majesty, please mount your horse for a military parade!"

"Okay, get on the horse!"

"Boom! Boom!--Plop!"

……

Although he doesn't like white horses very much, it's too late to replace them temporarily. With the help of several attendants, Cao Pi turned over and sat on the horseback, ready to go out of the Golden Horse Gate to inspect the army.

Perhaps it was the first time riding, and the people and horses were relatively unfamiliar. In addition, the sound of the drums and horns was too loud, and the docile white horse was suddenly frightened. He fell down and got kicked hard!

Then the white horse rushed into the crowd, kicking and biting, rampaging, causing chaos in the team, people hiding everywhere, yelling...

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty has fallen off the horse, hurry up and escort him!"

"Send the imperial doctor, send the imperial doctor quickly, and control the frightened horse!"

"I'm fine!"

Seeing the emperor fell off his horse, the civil and military officials were frightened out of their wits, and hurriedly helped Cao Pi up and down to check, only to see large bruises on his face and blood from his nose, which looked very scary!

…………

After a moment of chaos, several tiger and leopard knights shot together and finally controlled the frightened white horse. However, after this collision, more than a dozen people were kicked and injured, and the expedition ceremony was messed up!

On the other hand, the imperial doctors checked in detail and found that because of the protection of the armor, the imperial horse did not really kick Cao Pi, but his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and there were small abrasions. Just apply medicine for a few days and it will be fine!

Only then did the civil and military officials let out a sigh of relief, but a dark cloud rose in their hearts, and they remembered an old saying: Falling from a horse in an expedition is a bad omen!

Chapter 1684 'Tsuka Tiger' is out!

"The ministers have no eyes, they missed such a poor horse, so that they hurt His Majesty's dragon body, and they would rather die to apologize to His Majesty!"

One of the Nine Ministers, the imperial servant, was in charge of driving the palace cars. The imperial servant Dong Zhao led more than a dozen officials to kowtow on the ground to plead guilty.

Throwing the emperor off the horse is definitely a felony among felonies. It cannot be solved by just one or two people losing their heads. It is a serious crime involving a whole family. Men over 16 years old will be beheaded, and those under 16 years old and women will be punished by the government for life. To be a slave would be worse than death!

"You... I will all of you... Sigh, forget it, I forgive you for your innocence!"

After drinking two large bowls of Anshen Tang, Cao Pi slowly regained his strength. He pointed at the officials who were kneeling and pleading guilty. Put your hands down.

On the day of the army's expedition, it is ominous to kill court officials, not to mention that if there is a massacre, it will be impossible to hide the fact that he was killed. Once rumors spread, it will be very bad for the morale of the army!

The best solution is to turn the major issue into a minor one, and no official will be punished, so that people will forget about it as soon as possible, so as to minimize the adverse effects!

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing me. Your Majesty is truly a benevolent monarch rarely seen through the ages!"

Surviving the catastrophe, Dong Zhao and others hurriedly bowed their heads to thank them, and rearranged the carriage and horses. Although Cao Pi was not seriously injured, he couldn't ride a horse in the past few days. He could only ride a dragon chariot instead. There is no way to review the soldiers, and the original military parade will be cancelled!

The white horse that caused a catastrophe was sent to beheaded and used as a sacrificial flag, and it was regarded as a bad breath to the emperor, and the turmoil was over.

Unexpectedly, while the officials were busy, a Hongling messenger rushed into the Golden Horse Gate, holding a memorial in his hand...

"Report to Your Majesty, the Grand Master has a memorial for you!"

"Oh, bring it up!"

"According to the order!"

Since the division of East and West, Xiao Yi has not submitted a single memorial for more than three years, and he has never interfered in Luoyang's affairs. He did not expect a memorial to be sent suddenly today. I don't know why?

Cao Pi opened it to read, and it was indeed Xiao Yi's own handwriting, but the content was extremely short, only four sentences:

Soochow's vitality is not exhausted, water warfare is not my forte,

Rein in the precipice in time, or it will be too late to regret!

Obviously, Xiao Yi was telling Cao Pi that the time to defeat Wu was not yet ripe, and it was better to give up this southern expedition, otherwise, if defeated, Cao Wei's national fortune would definitely be damaged!

From the words, Xiao Yi was not advising, but warning, explaining that in this Southern Expedition, Xiao Yi believed that Cao Jun would definitely be defeated, at least he would return without success!

If ordinary people say such things, Cao Pi will definitely not believe them, and will punish those who speak up, because with 50 elite troops, to crusade against Soochow, which is far less powerful than himself and has just been hit by a severe storm, at first glance, this battle will be inevitable. Undoubtedly!

But the words come from Xiao Yi's mouth, so people have to treat them with caution. This is the No.1 general in the world. In the past 30 years since his debut, he has been invincible and invincible. His military accomplishments are incomparable, even better than Cao Cao's. Slightly higher half chip!

Cao Pi clearly remembered that Xiao Yi was resolutely opposed to the Southern Expedition in the ninth year of Jian'an, but his father was stubborn and sent troops, which led to Wulin's disastrous defeat, countless losses of troops and horses, and almost shook the foundation of the Cao family !

During that Southern Expedition, hundreds of thousands of Cao's troops marched in parallel by land and water, with a huge momentum, and they had the potential to swallow Jiangdong. Most people in the world believed that Cao's army would surely win. Unexpectedly, Jiangdong's army achieved a shocking reversal with fewer victories. The same thing Will it happen again?

Holding the memorial in hand, recalling the past, Cao Pi hesitated again, should he rein in the precipice and cancel the Southern Expedition?

And the incident of falling from the horse just now, is God warning me that this time the Southern Expedition will be more or less ominous?

"The grand master sent a memorial and suggested that I cancel this southern expedition. What do you love?"

Touching the bruise on his face, Cao Pi hesitated, and passed the memorial to the officials, wanting to hear everyone's opinions.

"My lord Taishi has no plans to spare. Since it is said that Soochow's vitality is not exhausted, it is better for your Majesty not to send troops lightly. You can rest and recuperate and wait for the opportunity!"

"It's absolutely impossible. The imperial court spent a lot of effort to recruit 50 troops, 200 million civilians, and countless military equipment, food and grass. Now it suddenly announces a strike. Wouldn't the world laugh at it?"

"If you stop in time now, you will lose face at most. If the army fails to conquer the south, not only will you lose face, but you will even lose your life!"

"It's a god-given opportunity, don't allow it to be missed, not to mention that the Grand Master's dissuasion may not really be for the country's consideration, I'm afraid it's a secret... Hehe!"

……

The civil and military officials discussed a lot, and soon divided into two factions. Xia Houshang, Jiang Ji, Dong Zhao and some senior officials believed that Xiao Yi's memorial was justified. Soochow is not a country that is about to perish. It is best for the court to cancel this Southern Expedition. , to appease the hearts of the Central Plains!

Or send a general to lead some troops to the south to explore the real situation of Soochow first. If you win the battle, Cao Pi will not be too late to fight with you. If the first battle is not good, then stop using troops, so that the loss will be smaller. , so as not to shake the foundation of the Great Wei Empire!

Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu, Xia Houcheng and others objected, thinking that if the 50 army is ready to go, canceling the Southern Expedition now will not only waste all previous efforts, but also make the world laugh.

What's more, is Xiao Yi's objection to sending troops really out of good intentions, or does he not want to see Cao Pi succeed in destroying Wu in order to consolidate the imperial power?

In this way, the two sides insisted on their own opinions, and the debate was inextricably linked. Unfortunately, no one could take a macro picture and explain clearly the success and failure of the crusade against Soochow. at the end...

"Where is Sima Zhongda?"

"Chen is here!"

"Tell me, how about the grand master's memorial?"
