Multiverse: Beginning with Forced Binding

Xiahou Ba died in the chaos of the army. When he was confused, he was stabbed by a Shu Han soldier and then hacked to death.

Xiahou Yuan's armor played an indispensable role in taking Chang'an.

After Sima Yi received the news of the fall of Chang'an, he had only one thought: it's over.

Chang'an was lost, Sima Yi had no way to retreat, and his logistics were not guaranteed. He now had only two options.

Attack Tianshui, and if he fails, he will die.

Counterattack Chang'an, if he fails, he can also borrow a road from the side to return to the territory of Wei, but he will definitely face the pursuit of the Shu Han army.

Sima Yi now prays that Shu Han will not do too much. If all the roads around Chang'an are really blocked, he will have no way to retreat.

Wei Yan thought so, but was stopped by Jiang Wei.

On the one hand, Guo Huai's troops are still there, and they may fight back at any time. Chang'an must be defended. The army has been sent out to block Sima Yi. What should I do with Chang'an?

If the troops sent out are too few, they may not be able to stop Sima Yi, but will be easily defeated by the enemy one by one.

"Then according to Bo Yue's idea, how should we deal with Sima Yi?" Wei Yan asked back, he was not very satisfied.

"Feint attack." Jiang Wei said: "Watch Sima Yi's army leave and pretend to pursue."

"Why?"

Deng Ai laughed at the side: "Dissension strategy."

Wei Yan couldn't help but frown: "Is it useful?"

"To be honest, it's useless, it just gives Cao Wei an excuse." Jiang Wei said: "Pretend that we are secretly colluding with Sima Yi and show an attitude."

"Then what?"

"Chang'an is lost, someone has to take the blame, right?"

Wei Yan understood a little.

"Whether it's Guo Huai or Sima Yi, someone must be responsible for this matter. Sima Yi was not valued in Wei State. If there was no one available, he would not be allowed to lead the army."

"You want to use this incident to deepen Wei State's suspicion and fear of Sima Yi?"

"Yes, we don't need to do anything at that time, the court officials of Wei State will attack Sima Yi, and he is the most suitable candidate to take the blame."

Wei Yan understood, but he didn't quite understand. Is Sima Yi so important?

Speaking of it, Sima Yi was really not well received in Wei State. When he was first summoned, he was reluctant to come out, but later he had to come, and was commented on as "eagle-eyed and wolf-looking".

When Cao Cao was alive, he didn't want to use Sima Yi, and later there was really no one available.

Now that Cao Pi is in power, his impression and reliance on Sima Yi are not very good. If he is coaxed by the court officials, it is really possible to put the pot on Sima Yi's head.

So Sima Yi was miserable. He was ready to fight to the death, but when he passed by the outside of Chang'an, the Shu Han army just threatened him and didn't really start a war.

Sima Yi always felt that something was wrong. After escaping, he quickly figured it out and sighed to the sky: "Shu Han has hurt me a lot!"

Sima Yi was very curious about who on the Shu Han side was so cruel that he could use such a trick.

Everything was just as Jiang Wei had inferred. The loss of Chang'an was a big deal. Someone must be responsible for this. It was supposed to be Guo Huai's fault, but many court officials pointed the finger at Sima Yi.

Sima Yi couldn't explain why he passed by the outside of Chang'an safely. He said he didn't collude with Shu Han, so what? We just don't believe it.

If you didn't collude privately, would Wei Yan let you go like that?

It was such a great achievement to destroy Sima Yi's army. Just say no?

In fact, everyone knew that Sima Yi was really innocent, but someone had to be responsible for this, right?

Cao Pi and the court officials saw that Sima Yi's head was suitable. The shape and size made it suitable for the blame.

Sima Yi was dismissed and went home to be idle.

The troops under Sima Yi were merged into Yu Jin's troops to defend Wancheng.

Sima Yi took the blame, but Guo Huai was not punished. The other culprit, Xiahou Ba, had died in the battle, and the matter ended there.

In Hefei, Chen Xi laughed when he got the news. Sima Yi was unlucky. He had not had the chance to show his unparalleled talent, but was deprived of the opportunity to shine.

Sima Yi in this world is not as important as in the original book, and he never had the opportunity to show himself. He had always participated in the war as a counselor.

The first time he led troops independently was to guard Chang'an, and then attack Tianshui. After fighting for so long, Tianshui was not taken down. In Cao Wei's view, Sima Yi was nothing special.

Since it is not so important, it is not a big deal to let Sima Yi take the blame.

The shadow guard asked on the side: "Do you want me to kill Sima Yi?"

"No, Yecheng is so far away, it is not worth going there for Sima Yi."

"Boss, aren't you afraid that Sima Yi will be re-employed?"

"When that time comes, Wei will definitely be in trouble. If he is re-employed, then he can be re-employed. It is also a good excuse to wipe out the Sima family in one fell swoop."

"Sima Yi is not easy to deal with."

"In the original story, Sima Yi is not easy to deal with because he has the support of the powerful Wei and Shu Han only has Bashu, but now the situation has changed."

The shadow guard understood that when Shu Han was about to defeat Wei, most of the world would be in the hands of Shu Han. At that time, even if Sima Yi could lead the army, it would not be a big deal.

On the side of Dongwu, because Chen Xi took Hefei, Sun Quan of Jianye panicked and once again increased the defense of Ruxukou, leaving Yuzhang empty.

Zhang Fei returned to the Eastern Expedition Army, and joined forces with Guan Yu to advance by land and sea, and captured Yuzhang County in one fell swoop. He echoed Zhao Yun in Lujiang, and together with Chen Xi in Hefei, they seriously threatened the safety of Jianye.

Up to now, Dongwu only had Jianye and Wujun left. Sun Quan sent envoys to surrender, willing to submit to Shu Han, only to retain the position of King of Wu.

Liu Bei proposed conditions, ceding Wujun and making Jianye Sun Quan's private land.

Sun Quan refused, he was not stupid, if Wujun was gone, he would really be isolated and helpless.

Since the talks could not be reached, let's fight to the death.

Cao Wei could not take care of Dongwu, and waves of reinforcements were sent to the Sili area to prevent the Shu Han army in Chang'an from attacking.

Seeing that Cao Wei did not care about Dongwu, Liu Bei gave an order and the whole army attacked Jianye.

Chen Xi did not participate in this battle. He had to stay in Hefei to guard against Zhang He in Runan. He sent out his shadow guards and special forces.

Jianye was indeed Sun Quan's old nest and was extremely difficult to fight. The Jingzhou army also continuously sent reinforcements, and Zhuge Liang also sent reinforcements to Wujun.

Ma Chao died of illness, and Ma Dai was stationed in Longyou to deter foreign ethnic groups.

Guan Xing and Zhang Bao led the army to Jiangdong to support Zhou Cang and Liao Hua in Wujun.

Li Yan led the army to Chang'an and joined Wei Yan. Now Chang'an has gathered a large number of troops, and Cao Wei did not dare to attack easily.

Pang Tong followed him to Wujun. Under Pang Tong's strategy, the nobles of Wujun were fooled. When fighting Zhou Cang and Liao Hua, they were stolen by Guan Xing and Zhang Bao.

Wujun was lost, and the foundation of the Jiangdong nobles was dug up.

Shu Han completely completed the encirclement of Eastern Wu, and Guangling, north of Jianye, was also captured by Zhao Yun.

It was not that Cao Wei did not want to defend, but that it could not defend. The special forces of the shadow guard cooperated with Zhao Yun and directly opened the gate of Guangling.

Cao Wei focused all its energy on Xuzhou, set up a defense line here, and strictly checked the people in the city every day, for fear that the special forces of Shu Han would sneak in again.

At this time, Cao Wei was also facing the situation of no one available. Cao Zhang, the most capable of the Cao clan, also died of illness.

The older generation of Cao Ren and Cao Hong were gone. Cao Zhen had some tricks, but died on the battlefield of Hefei, and Cao Chun, the commander of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, had died long ago.

Cao Pi looked around and found that there was only one Cao Xiu left, so he sent Cao Xiu to guard Xuzhou.

Cao Wei and Shu Han remained restrained, but Shu Han was not so polite to Eastern Wu, and more and more catapults were assembled.

Liu Bei's tactics were simple and crude, using incendiary bombs to wash the ground, and burn the entire Jianye.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei drew their swords and rode their horses. As long as Jianye dared to send troops to fight, these two veterans would meet them.

If Jianye did not fight, the incendiary bottles would be shot into the city. Anyway, the initiative was in Liu Bei's hands. No matter how he fought, Sun Quan had to bear it.

Under the attack of Shu Han regardless of losses and casualties, Jianye was broken after half a year.

During this period, Sun Quan wanted to make peace countless times, but it was useless. Liu Bei did not agree.

Sun Shangxiang was sent back, but it was useless. Liu Bei did not give the other party a chance to blow pillow wind.

Liu Bei was also afraid that he would be killed by Sun Shangxiang in his sleep.

Liu Bei took a cold approach to this woman. He would keep her in the future, but he could never do anything with her again.

Who made Sun Shangxiang not a weak woman? Liu Bei was so old that he was not keen on that kind of thing. Why risk his life?

Before the fall of Jianye City, Sun Quan asked for surrender for the last time, but he admitted defeat and gave in.

Liu Bei considered it over and over again, but still refused Sun Quan's surrender. This man's life was an unstable factor.

When Jianye City was broken, Sun Quan, who got the news, laughed like crazy. He killed all his children, his wife and other women, and finally committed suicide in the palace.

The eunuch set a fire according to Sun Quan's will, and the raging flames devoured everything.

The eunuch took Sun Quan's official seal and took the initiative to find Liu Bei, presented the official seal, and said Sun Quan's last words, asking Liu Bei to treat his sister well, this is the last bloodline of the Sun family.

After speaking, the eunuch committed suicide in front of Liu Bei.

Liu Bei was full of emotion, but it did not delay him from giving orders to eliminate all the bloodlines of the Sun family, including the collateral line.

Liu Bei did not need the support of the local nobles at all, nor did he care about the benefits of retaining the Sun family. What he wanted was long-term stability.

Of course, for the sake of his own reputation, the killing of all the Sun family was done privately by his subordinates, and he was unaware of it.

A minor general took the blame afterwards, was reprimanded by Liu Bei, and was sent away. He was dismissed from his position in the Eastern Expedition Army, and turned back to Chang'an to take up a post and was promoted.

After destroying the Eastern Wu, Liu Bei was not in a hurry to continue attacking the Wei Kingdom. He needed to consolidate his territory, implement reforms here, and continue the Northern Expedition after everything was stable.

Since Chang'an was taken, Liu Bei naturally chose to move the capital to Chang'an, which is an ancient capital.

Liu Bei led the Eastern Expedition army directly back to Chang'an. At this time, Zhuge Liang in Chengdu had completed the work of moving the capital.

After settling in Chang'an, Liu Bei seemed to have completed his mission, and his physical condition quickly declined.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were relatively better, with many old age diseases, but they were not fatal.

The older generation of generals returned to Chang'an, and those stationed outside were all young generals of the new generation.

Guan Xing and Zhang Bao, along with the grown-up Guan Suo, went to Jingzhou together and served under Guan Ping.

Jiang Wei guarded Hefei against Zhang He in Runan.

Deng Ai guarded Guangling against Cao Xiu in Xuzhou.

Ma Dai remained stationed in Longyou, and Wei Yan, the governor of Hanzhong, also came to Chang'an. In the future, he would be a general in the crusade against Cao Wei.

Chen Xi and Zhao Yun also returned to Chang'an, and he was the Grand Tutor.

At this time, Liu Bei was speechless when he remembered that he was a civil servant.

Liu Bei died of illness soon after returning to Chang'an. Before his death, he was very satisfied, but it was a pity that he could not see the revival of the Han Dynasty with his own eyes.

Liu Bei handed this important task to his son Liu Chan, and he was very confident in Liu Chan.

Liu Chan was well taught by Chen Xi, and with the assistance of others, Liu Bei had nothing to worry about, and no longer needed to entrust his orphan.

The Shu Han regime was safely transferred to Liu Chan's hands, and no moths appeared.

There were also bad things.

Since Liu Bei's death, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's spirits were lost all of a sudden. They dare not say that they died on the same day of the same month, but they really did it in the same year.

Before the reform was completed in the newly acquired territory, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei died of illness one after another, especially Zhang Fei, who died three days after Guan Yu's death.

Of the generals of the older generation, only Zhao Yun was left. Fortunately, Chen Xi and Zhuge Jun were still there to accompany him, otherwise he would have difficulty finding someone to talk to.

Zhuge Liang was not good, he was too busy.

Xu Shu had been in Jingzhou, his health was very good, he wanted to live until the demise of Cao Wei.

Pang Tong was also in good health, and he presided over the reform in Jianye.

The person guarding the land of Dongwu was Li Yan, who was indeed a talented person, but his personality was not very good.

With Zhuge Liang's presence, Li Yan did not dare to stab, not to mention that the older generation of fierce generals were still alive, Zhao Yun, Chen Xi, and Wei Yan, any of whom could beat him.

Li Yan vented all his bad temper on the Jiangdong nobles. If there was any slight mishandling, he would not be soft-hearted.

Zhuge Zhan was still the commander of the imperial guards, responsible for the safety of the palace. Zhuge Huai and Zhuge Long also grew up gradually. They followed Chen Xi to learn from them, and they were both civil and military.

Zhuge Long went to Jinyiwei and would succeed his father Zhuge Jun in the future.

Zhuge Huai was unwilling to stay with his parents, so he simply applied to go to Hefei and joined Jiang Wei.

The Lu clan cooperated obediently, so Chen Xi let them go. Lu Xun also served in Shu Han openly and was valued by Liu Chan.

At the same time, the nomadic peoples on the grassland were growing stronger. In order to avoid the future incident of the Five Barbarians' Rebellion, Chen Xi submitted a petition to fight.

The few cavalrymen of Shu Han were all handed over to Chen Xi. He led his army out of Longyou and started the war to conquer the grassland.

Zhao Yun, who was bored, couldn't stay in Chang'an and insisted on going with him. Two years later, he died of illness on the grassland and returned with his body on horseback.
