Is the story about Sima Yi true? Romance of the Three Kingdoms is just a scribbled novel by Sima Yi.

History of the Three Kingdoms-Biography of Sima Yi

Sima Da, born in 179 -25 1, aged 72, was an outstanding politician, strategist and Wei Chongchen in the Three Kingdoms period. He led the army to crusade against Zhuge Liang many times, and he was king for his achievements. After his grandson Sima Yan proclaimed himself emperor, he was honored as the Emperor of Xuan Di.

Sima Yi first came from Li Zhong, the son of Emperor Levin, and was a great official of the Xia Dynasty, Zhu Rong, who experienced the Tang Dynasty, Yu, Xia Dynasty and Shang Dynasty all his life. During the Zhou Dynasty, Xia Guan was Sima. Later, Bai Cheng divorced his father, and when he was in Zhou Xuanwang, he took Kefang, a world official, and Xiguan's family as his surname. On the occasion of Chu and Han Dynasties, Sima Yang became the general of Zhao State and fought against Qin State with the governors. Qin Wu was the king of Yin, with Hanoi as the capital. Korea regards its land as its county, and its children and grandchildren regard it as their home. From Yang VIII to Emperor An of the Eastern Han Dynasty, he was born as a general of the West, and his word was Shu Ping. Division student, division satrap, word male. Si Sheng Jun Ying Chuan Tai Shou Si Jun Jun has different characters. Division student Jing Shoujun, word. Sima Fang is the father of Sima Yi (all the above contents are taken from the Book of Jin Xuandi Ji). Sima Yan, the emperor of Jin Dynasty, said in one of his imperial edicts: "All people were born here, and the rites have been passed down for a long time" (Book of Rites of Jin).

Sima Yi, the second son of Sima Fang, is said in the history books to be "rare, intelligent, knowledgeable and obedient to Confucianism" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji). At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the world was in chaos. Sima Yi was born in troubled times and "always worried about the world" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji).

Nanyang, the satrap of Yang, is famous for knowing people and being good at their duties. Sima Yi was less than twenty years old. When Yang met him, he said that he was by no means unusual. Cui Yan, the prime minister, befriended Sima Lang, Sima Yi's brother, and once said to Sima Lang, "Your brother is extremely clever, and he just cut off the Internet, which is beyond his son's reach" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji).

In the 13th year of Jian 'an (208), after Cao Cao became prime minister, Sima Yi was established as literature by compulsory means. Cao Cao said to the emissary, "If you delay any longer, you will accept it" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji). Sima yi was afraid and had to take office. Cao Cao asked him to travel with the prince, as assistant minister of Huangmen, negotiator, prime minister Cao Dong and prime minister. Sima Yi works under Cao Cao and is cautious and diligent. "As for the relationship between straw and animal husbandry, we all know that we are in shoes."

In the 24th year of Jian 'an (2 19), when Sun Quan showed his loyalty to Cao Cao, he encouraged Cao Cao to stand on his own feet as emperor. Cao Cao said, "This son wants evil in my furnace!" Sima Yi said, "Han Yun is dying. Your Highness has nine people in the world to serve. Power is a vassal, which means the meaning of heaven and man. Yu, Xia, Yin and Zhou are not humble, but fear know life "(The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji). At that time, Cao Cao's bureaucrats all supported the Han people, which was deeply taboo for Cao Cao, while Yu Xun, Cui Yan and other famous figures all disagreed with the Han people in Cao Shi, and it did not end well. Probably Sima Yi supported Cao Cao for a long time on this key issue, so Cao Cao gradually changed from doubt to trust. Cao Cao entered the title and was promoted to Sima Yi as the illegitimate son of the prince, assisting Cao Pi. At that time, Sima Yi was trusted and reused by Cao Pi, so the relationship between them has been very good. Sima Yi, Chen Qun, Wu Zhi and Zhu Shuo are called four friends. Since then, Sima Yi has often sought state affairs and made many surprising plans. Soon, Sima Yi became a Sima in the Prime Minister's army.

In June of the same year, after Liu Bei captured Hanzhong, he sent Meng Da and Liu Feng to capture Fangling and Shang Yong in the east of Hanzhong County, and his influence expanded. In July, Sun Quan wanted to attack and merge, and most of Wei Jun mobilized Huainan to guard against Wu Jun. Guan Yu, the former general of Shu guarding Jingzhou, took this opportunity to stay in Nanjun (governing Jiangling, now Jiangling, Hubei), guarding Jiangling Mi Fang, the general of public security Fu Shiren (now northwest Hubei), and attacking Jingxiang in the north (Wei Jingzhou governing Xinye, now Xinye, Henan; Xiangyang county governs Xiangyang, now Xiangfan, Hubei). Coss, the general who besieged Wei, drowned in the seventh army and beheaded Pound. At that time, there were only a few thousand defenders in Fancheng, and the city walls collapsed in many places because of flooding. Coss once considered giving up Fancheng, but was dissuaded by Man Chong, the satrap of Runa who assisted Coss. Coss is determined to fight bravely. Hu and Fu really took the opportunity to go to Shu. At this time, Lu Hun (now the northeast of Song County, Henan Province), Sun Lang and others also killed officials and rose up in response to Guan Yu. Guan Yu's imposing manner "shook China very much" (Biography of Guan Yu in the Three Kingdoms).

At that time, the capital was in Xuchang, close to Fancheng, and Cao Cao felt threatened. In order to avoid Guan Yu's sharp edge, he was once ready to move the capital to Hebei. Sima Yi, Cao Xun and Jiang Ji promptly dissuaded them: "If the imperial army is defeated by water, it will be moved to the capital without fighting or defending, and the national economy will not be damaged, which not only shows the weakness of the enemy, but also makes people uneasy. Sun Quan and Liu Bei are proud of their feathers, but they are unwilling. It can be said that the appropriate place, after finishing, Fan Wei himself explained "("The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji "). According to his plan, Cao Cao sent Monroe to attack Jiangling, and Guan Yu was captured and killed by him.

With the victory of this war, Cao Cao used Sun Liu to seize the conflict in Jingzhou and made full use of diplomatic strategy to make huge profits, which not only defeated Guan Yu's powerful offensive and lifted the siege of Fancheng, but also made Zhuge Liang's original plan of hitting Wanluo and Qinchuan all the way impossible. More importantly, it destroyed the alliance between Sun and Liu, changed the strategic pattern at that time and gained the initiative.

In the first year of Yankang (220), Cao Cao died, and the ruling and opposition parties were in danger. Sima Yi manages the funeral, both inside and outside.

In the same year, Cao Pi acceded to the throne as Wei, and Sima Yi was appointed as the Hou of Hejin Pavilion and transferred to the post of Prime Minister.

In the same year, xelloss acceded to the throne, known as Wei Wendi. Because Sima Yi made great contributions to Cao Pi's "usurping the Han Dynasty", after Cao Pi acceded to the throne, Sima Yi was appointed as the minister of history, and soon became the governor, suggestion and honesty, and sealed Anguo Township.

In the second year of Huang Chu (22 1), he was removed from the position of overseer and promoted to the right servant of the assistant minister and minister.

In the year of Huang San (222) and five years (224), Cao Pi attacked Wu twice, taking Sima Yi as the commander of Xuchang, and changed Sima Yi to. Huang Chu six years (225) in the spring of February, transferred to the government as a general, on holiday, led the troops of five thousand, added to things, record the history. When Sima Yi resigned, Cao Pi said, "I am working day and night in ordinary affairs without a moment's rest. This is not to be proud, but to share worries (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji).

In May of the seventh year of Huang Chu (226), Cao Pi died of illness. On his deathbed, Sima Yi, general Cao Zhen of Zhong Jun, general Chen Qun of Zhenjun and general Cao Xiu of Zhengdong were appointed as ministers of Fuzheng. Cao Pi said to the prince, "Be careful not to doubt the existence of these three officials" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji). Ming Di acceded to the throne and changed Sima Yi to Wuyang Hou.

In June of the first year of Taihe (227), Ming Di ordered Sima Yi to be stationed in Wancheng, and added Jing and Yuzhou military forces.

In May of the second year of Taihe (228), Zhou Fu, the satrap of Wu Poyang, sent a personal letter to Cao Xiu, falsely claiming that he was censured by the king of Wu and intended to abandon Wu and demote Wei, requesting to send troops to meet the enemy. Cao Xiu couldn't tell the truth from the false, that is, he led 654.38+ ten thousand cavalry to meet in Wancheng (now Anhui Buried Hill). Ming Di also ordered Sima Yi to lead an army to meet Cao Xiu in Jiangling (now Jiangling, Hubei). In August, Cao Xiu was defeated by Wu Jun, and the remnant army was saved by Jia Kui.

In the third year of Taihe (227), Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu, sent troops to attack Wei for the third time and occupied Wudu and two counties. In the fourth year of Taihe (230), he decided to attack Shu. Sima Yi was promoted to general, commander-in-chief, and false, and together with Zhen, he cut Shu.

In August, Cao Zhen was ordered to lead the main force from Chang 'an to Gu, general Zhang He from left to Sima Yi from Jingzhou to Hanshui to Xicheng (now northwest of Ankang, Shaanxi), and the soldiers attacked Hanzhong in three ways. Sima Yi opened a road from Xicheng, went hand in hand with land and water, went upstream along Mianshui River, took Xiajin directly, conquered Xinfeng County, stationed in Kou Dan, and transferred troops in case of rain.

At this point, there are two completely different records of future operations in the history books.

"The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji" is recorded as follows: ..... The army arrived from the commander-in-chief. All the generals were afraid, and the emperor said, "I am tired, and this soldier is greedy." Bright dare not follow the water, easy to listen to. "When I entered Hanyang, I met Liang and the emperor was waiting. When Taurus was tempted, the soldiers took over and retreated brightly, chasing Qishan. Liangtun Lucheng (now Tianshui South, Gansu Province) is surrounded by two mountains, north and south. The emperor attacked and pulled out his encirclement. He escaped at night. Chase, break through and capture thousands of people.

"Zi Jian Juan 72" is recorded as follows: ... Guo Huai, Fei Yao, etc. Bright, bright, broken, because of its bumper wheat harvest, in the high east and easy to meet. In accordance with the risks, the troops can't be handed over. As for the halogen city, Yi and others will find it all after. Zhang He said, "He came from afar to be my enemy, so he couldn't fight, saying that my interests were not in the war, and he wanted to use a long-term plan to control it. And Qishan knows that the army is close, and the human feelings are solid. You can stop here and divide into Indiana Jones, which means it is not appropriate to move forward. If you dare not push, you will lose popularity. Today, I am alone, eating less, and I can go. " If you don't listen, look for light. When he arrived, he climbed mountains, dug camps and refused to fight. Jia Xu and Wei Ping fought several times, saying, "You are afraid of Shu as a tiger, but why are you laughing?" Get sick easily. The generals are ready to fight. In summer and May, Xinji and Yi made Zhang He attack unprepared, and He Ping was in Nanwei, and the case was clarified. Liang ordered Wei Yan, Gao Xiang and Wu Ban to meet, and suffered a crushing defeat. He gave the Han soldiers 3,000 armor and also stayed in the camp. In June, Liang withdrew with grain, and Sima Yi sent Zhang He to chase him. Into the wooden door (now southwest of Tianshui, Gansu Province), fighting with Liang, Shu people took high cloth, shot with a crossbow, and died in the right knee with an arrow.

It can be seen that the former said that Sima Yi won a great victory, while the latter said that Sima Yi suffered a great defeat. However, in the biographies of Zhuge Liang, Zhang He, Guo Huai and others in the history of the Three Kingdoms, all these are fleeting. Moreover, the former avoided talking about Sima Yi's request that Zhang He pursue Shu. Relatively speaking, the latter is more credible. The current military reference books are also subject to the latter records.

After the Shu army retreated, the military strategist Du and the supervisor Xue Xu estimated that Zhuge Liang would enter the army next year when the wheat was ripe, and suggested that grain and grass should be transported in winter to solve the problem of food shortage in Longyou. Sima Yi said, "When the Qishan Mountain is exposed, our army will attack Chencang and lose. If you go out from the back and stop attacking the city, you must hit Longdong, not the west. Every time I hate lack of food, I will accumulate grain. As I expected, I can't move until I have three barnacles "(The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji).

In February of the second year of Qinglong (234), Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu, led more than 654.8 million people to attack Wei in Xiegu. In April, Zhuge Liang went to Yan County (now north of Meixian County, Shaanxi Province) and stationed in the south of Weishui. Sima Yi, the general of Wei State, led the army across the Wei River and built a water barrier. The generals wanted to be at loggerheads with Zhuge Liang in Weibei, and Sima Yi said, "People will gather in Weinan, and this is also a place to fight" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji). Then cross the Weihe River and camp. After analyzing the situation, Sima Yi said to the generals, "If you have the courage, take your military commanders to the east. If you go west to Wuzhangyuan (now southwest of Meixian County, Shaanxi Province), then all the troops will be fine" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji).

Zhuge Liang really went to Wuzhangyuan. All the generals of Wei are happy, but Guo Huai, the secretariat of Yongzhou, is worried. He said, "Brightness strives for the northern plain, so it is advisable to follow it first" (Zi Tongzhi Jian, Volume 72), but most of them disagree. Guo Huai said: "It is not the benefit of the country to cross the Wei River and climb the plain, and the northern mountain will join forces, isolating the long road and shaking the people outside" (Biography of the Three Kingdoms Shu Wei Guo Huai). Sima Yi realized the importance of Beiyuan and ordered Guo Huai and others to send troops to Beiyuan. Before the wall was built, the Shu army succeeded, but the attack failed, and the two armies were in a state of confrontation.

In May, Wu Jun attacked Wei with 654.38+100,000 roads to cooperate with the Shu army. Wei Mingdi sent Qin Lang to lead twenty thousand people to assist Sima Yi, and led the main force to fight back against Wu Jun. In July, Wu Jun retreated.

Zhuge Liang's eastward advance was blocked by Sima Yi, who advanced from Weishui and was blocked by Guo Huai. He transferred troops to capture Sanguan, Longcheng and other places, and then returned to attack Sima Yi.

In August, Sima Yi followed Ming Di's instructions of "guarding the city but refusing to defend it" and held a stalemate with Zhuge Liang for more than one hundred days. Zhuge Liang challenged several times, but Sima Yi couldn't get out of the wall. He wanted to wait until the Shu army ran out of food before attacking. Zhuge Liang sent someone to send Sima Yi "a woman's ornament" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji) to humiliate him. He wanted to inspire Sima Yi to play, but Sima Yi still didn't play. In order to calm the dissatisfaction of my subordinates, I pretended to be angry. I went to the table and asked for a good fight. Ming Di is not allowed to send Xin Pi, the minister of orthopedics, as Sima Yi's strategist to control his actions. After Zhuge Liang came to challenge, Sima Yi was about to lead the troops to attack. Xin Pi's scepter stood at the military gate, and Sima Yi did not send troops.

When Xin Pi arrived, Jiang Wei, the general of Shu, said to Zhuge Liang, "Xin Pi has come with a scepter, and the thief will not turn back." Zhuge Liang said, "He has no intention of fighting, so he resolutely invites people to show his strength in his ears. Will be in the army, your life will not be affected, if you can control us, please how far to fight evil "("The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji ")! Zhuge Liang then divided his troops, stationed troops in the wild, and prepared for long-term operations.

Sima Fu, Sima Yi's younger brother, wrote to ask about the military situation at the front. Sima Yi wrote back: "If you are ambitious, you will not see opportunities;" More plans, less decisions; If you are a good soldier, you have no right. Although you brought 100,000 soldiers, you fell into my painting, and the painting will be broken "("The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji ").

Soon, Zhuge Liang sent messengers to fight. Sima Yi did not talk about military affairs and asked the messenger, "How does Zhuge Gong live? How many meters can he eat? " The messenger said, "Three or four liters." Then asked about politics, the messenger said, "Twenty penalties have been introspective." After some casual inquiries, Sima Yi said to people, "Can Zhu Gekongming last long?" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji)! Sure enough, Zhuge Liang died in Zhang Wuyuan's army that month.

Shu will not send out obituaries, and the whole army will retreat. When the local people saw the Shu army retreating, they reported to Sima Yi, who sent troops to pursue it. Shu general Yang Yi returned to the flag and counterattacked. Sima Yi thought that he had been tricked into withdrawing troops. The next day, Sima Yi visited Zhuge Liang's camp. "Observing his legacy, he got a lot of books and food" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji). Sima Yi concluded that Zhuge Liang was dead and praised Zhuge Liang as "a genius in the world" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji).

Xin Pi thought that Zhuge Liang's death was unknown, and Sima Yi said, "The military valued it, and the secret plan of the military, military forces, food and grass have been abandoned. Someone can donate their five treasures and live? " It is advisable to pursue it urgently "("The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji "). So, he led his troops to chase him. There are many tribulus in Guanzhong area. Sima Yi sent 3000 soldiers to walk in front of the army wearing flat clogs made of soft materials. All the thorns were stabbed on the clogs, and then the army advanced. All the way to the red shore, this just got the exact death of Zhuge Liang. At that time, there was a proverb that said, "When Zhuge died, Zhong Dasheng." Sima Yi said with a smile, "I expect to live, but it is not convenient to expect to die" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji).

The battle of Zhuge Liang attacking Wei, which lasted for seven years, is over. Although Zhuge Liang made a strategic mistake, he defeated Wei with a state in the Central Plains. Even if he tries his best to show loyalty and wisdom, his strategic goal is difficult to achieve because of the disparity in strength. Under the correct command of Sima Yi and others, Wei adopted the strategy of defending with superior forces, and finally retreated without fighting and won the final victory.

Shu generals Yang Yi and Wei Yan fought for power and profit after withdrawing their troops, and Yang Yi killed Wei Yan. Sima Yi wanted to seize the opportunity to attack Shu, but Ming Di didn't approve, so he had to give up.

In the third year of Qinglong (235), Sima Yi was promoted to Taiwei.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, warlords scuffled and Gongsun Du occupied Liaodong. This separatist force hypocritically rebelled against the Cao Wei regime from time to time and maintained a semi-independent status. After Gongsun Yuan became a satrap of Liaodong, he was even more presumptuous towards Wei. In the first year of Jingchu (237), Gongsun Yuan, the former governor of Liaodong of Wei, betrayed Wei, established himself as the prince of Yan, made an official list, and made his capital Xiangping (now Liaoyang, Liaoning).

In the first month of the second year of Jingchu (238), Wei Mingdi called Sima Yi back to Beijing and ordered him to lead an army to crusade. Ming Di said, "it's not enough to bother you. If you want to do something, you must overcome it, so it bothers you. What's your plan? " Sima Yi said, "It is also a tactic to abandon the city and go first. According to Liaoshui, the distance from the army is second to none. Sit in Xiangping, and you will be arrested. " Ming Di asked again, "Will its plan come out?" Sima Yi replied: "Only a wise man can deeply understand himself and give up something beyond his power. If we stop the army expedition today, we must stay away from the Liaohe River first and then defend it. " Ming Di asked, "How long will it take?" Sima Yi said, "Go for a hundred days, return for a hundred days, attack for a hundred days, and rest for sixty days. One year is enough "(The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji).

At that time, the imperial court overhauled the palace to replenish military supplies, and the people were hungry and cold. Before the battle, Sima Yi advised Ming Di, "In the past, Luoyi was built in Xiao He. Now the palace is not ready, so it's my responsibility. However, since the north of the river, the people are trapped and poor, with internal and external affairs, and the situation is not harmonious. It is advisable to stay in the house to save time "(The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji).

In the first month, Sima Yi led Jinniu and Hu Zun to ride 40,000 steps, starting from the capital, crossing solitary bamboo and Jieshi, and entering Liaoshui in June. Gongsun Yuan really urged North Yan and other generals to ride tens of thousands in one step, cut the moat for more than 20 miles in accordance with Liao, and build a high wall to block Wei Jun.

Sima yi used the tactics of introducing the east to the west. First, some flags were erected on the southern line, pretending to attack the moat to attract the enemy's main force, crossing the Liaohe River under the condition that the main force was hidden, and forcibly entering the enemy camp. Then, instead of attacking the enemy's camp, we went straight to Gongsun Yuan (Liaodong County, now Liaoyang, Liaoning Province) base area to make peace. The Ministry will not understand what it means and say, "Don't attack thieves, surround thieves and don't show them to the public." Sima Yi explained, "The thief wants to build a high base and use my old soldiers. If you attack it, it will be a plan. This king is also ashamed of Kunyang. The ancients said that although the enemy is on a high base, those who fight side by side with us will be saved if they attack all of them. If the thief is here, the nest is empty. When I point to Xiang Ping, the people are afraid of his arms. If they dare not fight, they will break it "(The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji). So he forced the enemy to give up the encirclement and return to the army to rescue Xiangping. Sima Yi, the commander of the army, looked back at the foot of the mountain (now southwest of Liaoyang, Liaoning) to meet the enemy reinforcements and said to the generals, "So don't attack their camps, that's what we want, and we must never lose them.". Wei Jun met him and won all three wars, so he pushed the victory into the encirclement of Xiangping.

When Sun Yuan heard about Wei Jun's attack, he turned to Sun Quan for help. Sun Quan also sent troops to help, and wrote to Gongsun Yuan: "Sima Gong is good at fighting, and if he changes, he must first, which is deeply worrying for his younger brother" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji).

It coincides with the continuous rainstorm, the Liaohe River is soaring and the ground is several feet. Wei Jun was afraid, and people wanted to move camp. Sima Yi ordered those who dared to speak to move to camp and behead them, and the commander-in-chief ordered Zhang Jing to disobey orders and behead them, so that the morale of the army began to be secure. The palace army rode out of the city in the rain, firewood and horses, but as cool as a cucumber. General Wei asked for an attack, but Sima Yi refused. Sima Chen Gui asked Sima Yi, "In the past, when attacking Yong, eight departments kept pace with each other and traveled day and night, so we could pull out the fortified city and chop it in ten days. Today, people are far and flat, stupid and confused. " Sima Yi said, "The Emperor said," Mengda has a small population and eats for one year. Our soldiers are four times as many as Dada, but the food does not flood the moon. If you take photos for one year in January, can you slow down? Four strikes and one hit, the half solution is right, and it is still right now. Therefore, regardless of casualties, we compete with grain for profit. Today, thieves are outnumbered, thieves are hungry and I am full, and water is exhausted. I have no skills. Although I should promote it, I will do whatever I want. Spontaneous capital, not afraid of thieves attacking, afraid of thieves leaving. Now the thief has run out of food, but the encirclement is not closed. He plundered his cattle and horses, copied his firewood and drove away. Husband and soldier are deceptive, and good things happen. Thieves depend on the rain, so although they are hungry and sleepy, they are not willing to give up, so they should show helplessness. This is not a plan to take a small profit to win by surprise (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji).

Then, Sima Yi also played along, deliberately showing weakness. The imperial court heard that rain was a strong enemy, and many people asked Sima Yi to return. Instead, he said, "Sima Gong was in danger and defected, so he tried to catch it" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji).

After a month, the rain stopped and the water gradually receded. Wei Jun completed the siege of Xiangping, built heaped-up mountains, tunnels, cars, hook ladders and other siege equipment, and stormed day and night. There was no food in the city, and there were many dead people, so they sent Zuo Yang and others down. Occasionally, meteors pass from southwest to northeast and land near Liangshui, which makes the city more and more frightened. Gongsun Yuan was scared, too. In August, he sent Prime Minister Wang Jian and Liu Fu to ask for clearance, and then he surrendered with his hands tied behind his back. Sima Yi beheaded the messenger and issued a severe reprimand: "In the past, Chu and Zheng were both countries, but Zheng Bo greeted him naked. Solitary, in the public, the desire to build alone, so Chu Zheng called it evil, not evil! Two old women, they will tell lies and be cut down. If you don't know what you want, you can send more young people with clear decisions (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji). Gongsun Yuan sent Shi Zhong Wei to demand the timely delivery of hostages. Sima Yi said to Wei, "There are five military skills. Fight when you should, defend when you should, and defend when you should go. The other two things are surrender and death. If you refuse to bind your face, you will die, and you don't have to send it "(The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji).

Gongsun Yuan wanted to break the south of the city, Sima Yi was defeated, and Gongsun Yuan died in the land of the stars on the edge of Liangshui (now Prince River). After Sima Yi entered the city, he slaughtered more than 7,000 men 15 years old, collected the bodies and built the Beijing Temple. Quietly observing is a high hill built by the victors in ancient wars to show off their martial arts, collect enemy bodies and seal the soil. Gongsun Yuan was beheaded as a public official, killing more than 2,000 people, including General Bi Sheng. The family income is 40,000 and the population is more than 300,000.

At that time, some soldiers in Sima Yi's army had cold clothes and asked him to give them, but Sima Yi didn't give them. Someone said, "If you are lucky enough, you can give it." Sima Yi said: "The official affairs are praised, and the people and ministers are selfless" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji). So he went to the imperial court, and 1000 soldiers over the age of 60 were discharged from military service and sent back to China. Then, in the original year, we will win the class division.

Send messengers to Hebei to reward the army in the two counties around * * * and increase Sima Yi's grain in Kunyang County.

It turned out that the court asked him to make a detour into the city. But when he arrived at the White House, a letter told him to hurry back to Beijing. Within three days, five letters were received. Ming Di wrote in calligraphy: "When I look at it from the side, I will go straight to the cupboard and look at my face" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji).

It is said that Sima Yi once dreamed that Ming Di was resting on his leg and said, "Look at my face." He looked down and saw that Ming Di had different colors. Now I am shocked to see the words of the imperial edict. I took the car chasing the front all day and night, from the White House to the capital, more than 400 miles, and arrived overnight. Then he went to the imperial bed in Jiafu hall, full of tears, and asked about his illness. Ming Di took his hand, looked at the prince and the king of Qi, and said, "We will trust each other in the future. I can't bear to die, I will bear to die for you, I will meet you and have nothing to hate "(The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji, The History of the Three Kingdoms Shu Wei Ming Di Ji) means" I am very ill, I will be your husband in the future, and you will be with me. I must see you, what is there to hate? " ) On the same day, Ming Di passed away. It was the first month of the third year of Jing (239).

Cao Fang, the king of Qi, was only eight years old, and Sima Yi accepted the testamentary edict with the general Cao Shuang to assist the young master. The King of Qi acceded to the throne, Sima Yi served as a servant, held festivals, supervised Chinese and foreign troops, and recorded the affairs of ministers. Cao Shuang was a good soldier of three thousand departments, and * * * presided over state affairs.

Cao Shuang wanted to crowd out Sima Yi, wanted Shangshu to fight ahead of time, so as to be authoritarian, and advised the emperor to appoint Sima Yi as Fu. The courtiers thought that it was unlucky for many Fu in the previous dynasty to die in office, so they appointed Sima Yi as a Taifu, with no real power. Like Xiao He in the Han Dynasty, he did not enter the temple, praised him, and went to the temple with his sword.

Previously, Zhuge Ke was sent to Wancheng by the State of Wu, and the border people were deeply bitter. Sima Yi wanted to lead an army to attack it. The discussant thought that Zhuge Ke had occupied a strong city with a wide grain valley and attacked alone, and reinforcements would come. He was in a dilemma and didn't see it. Sima Yi said, "A thief is good at water. Now attack his city and see how it changes. If we use its strengths and abandon its city, it will be the victory of the temple. If you insist, the lake is shallow in winter and the boat can't go. It will certainly abandon the water and save it, and it will also benefit me "(The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji). Therefore, Sima Yi led the army to war in September of the fourth year of Zhengshi (243). When the army arrived in Shucheng, Zhuge Ke burned up and left the city.

In the spring of five years (244), General Cao Shuang wanted to make a name for himself. He didn't listen to Sima Yi, a teacher, and urged to cut Shu, and the Wei Emperor followed suit. As a result, Wang Ping, a former army supervisor in Shuzhong and a general in Zhenbei, was defeated. Wei Jun was blocked by prosperity, and there was no supply of rations in the rear. A large number of cattle, horses, mules and donkeys died, and reinforcements from Shufu County and Feiyi arrived one after another. Seeing that Cao Shuang couldn't win, he was forced to follow Sima Yi's advice and return in May. Wei Jun was stopped by the Shu army, struggled to resist and had to return. He was separated and suffered heavy casualties. In autumn and August of six years (245), Cao Shuang abandoned the middle base and the backbone battalion and gave them to his younger brother Cao Xi. Sima Yi quoted the old example of the late emperor to stop it, but Cao Shuang didn't listen. In the eighth year (247), Cao Shuang moved the Empress Dowager to Yongning Palace at the suggestion of his confidants, Deng Yang and Ding Mi. At that time, Cao Shuang brothers "were good at politics, brothers joined hands to ban soldiers, built many trees to be pro-Party, and changed the system repeatedly" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji) crowded out Sima's forces. Sima Yi can't ban it, and the contradiction with Cao Shuang is getting deeper and deeper. In May, Sima Yi pretended to be ill and didn't ask about politics. People at that time said, "He, Deng and Ding messed up the capital" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji). Immediately, Cao Shuang and others stepped up the pace of usurping power. In March of the ninth year (248), Huangmen Zhangdang privately ceded eleven people, including talented people in the inner room, to Cao Shuang, and Cao Shuang, Yan He took the opportunity to collude with Zhangdang to seek the danger of the country. Cao Shuang and his colleagues were also worried that Sima Yi was faking illness. In the winter of the same year, Yin went from Henan to Jingzhou to make a secretariat and visit him. Sima Yi pretended to be seriously ill and let the two maids support themselves. She tried to get clothes, but she couldn't hold them steadily. She fell to the ground and pointed to her mouth and said she was thirsty. The maid-in-waiting offered porridge, and he took it with his mouth, and the soup flowed all over his chest. Li Sheng said: "The public's mood means launching the old style of Gong Ming, so what do you mean by respecting the body?" Sima Yi deliberately said out of breath: "An old man with a pillow disease will die at any time. You have to bend Bingzhou, and Bingzhou is close to Hu, so be prepared psychologically. I'm afraid I won't see you again, so it's up to my son and brother Zhao. " Li Sheng said: "When you return to this state (Li Sheng is from Jingzhou), it is not a state." Sima Yi deliberately confused his words: "Jun Fang went to Bingzhou." Li Sheng added: "When you are in Jingzhou." Sima Yi said, "I don't understand what you said because old people are barren. Today, it is still a country, and it is heroic and heroic. It is good to make contributions! " Li Sheng came back and said to Cao Shuang, "Sima Gong is full of qi, and his form and spirit are gone. I don't have to worry." A few days later, he said, "The teacher can't recover, which makes people feel sad" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji). Cao Shuang and others will no longer guard against Sima Yi. Sima Yi pretended to be ill on the surface, but in fact he secretly arranged to destroy Cao Shuang's power.

In the first month of spring in the first year of Jiaping (249), Cao Fang, the Wei Emperor, went out of Luoyang to pay homage to the tomb of Gao Ping Ling. General Cao Shuang, Cao Xi, the leader of China, and Cao Xun and General Wu Wei all followed suit. Sima Yi took the opportunity to beat the Queen Mother Yongning and demanded that the Cao Shuang brothers be abolished. At that time, Sima Shi was the Guards of China, leading troops to control Sima Men and Kyoto. Sima Yi lined up in front of Cao Shuang, and the Ministry of Cao Shuang went upstairs with strict teachers. Sun Gan grabbed his arm and stopped him from saying "I don't know" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji). Huan Fan, a veteran farmer who stopped it three times in a row, went out of town to vote for Cao Shuang. Jiang Ji said to Sima Yi, "The think tank is gone." Sima Yi, on the other hand, said, "It's unwise to neglect the fields and love beans" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji).

Sima Yi summoned Situ Gaorou, pretending to be the general in charge of Cao Shuang military camp, and said to him, "You are" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji). Wang Yin, the servant, was also called to take charge of Cao's camp. Sima Yi personally led Qiu Jiangji and other soldiers to meet the emperor and stationed at the Luoshui pontoon bridge. Send someone to present the throne to the emperor: "The first emperor called your majesty, the king of Qin and his ministers to the imperial bed, took the minister's arm and said,' I will learn later'. Now, the general has turned his back on his own life, defeated the national code, and planned arrogantly at home, but it is autocratic abroad. Group officials play their jobs and are all relatives; Stay with the old people and look at them. Judging from the teeth, it is getting worse every day. And yellow door Zhang Wei supervisor, specializing in * * * diplomatic relations and offering artifacts. The world is cold and people are afraid of danger. How can your majesty stay long? This is not the original intention of the first emperor to ask his majesty and ministers to board the imperial bed. Although I am old, I dare to forget my order. Zhao Gaoji was interested yesterday, and Qin was dead; The land fire broke early, and Hanzuo lived forever. This is your Majesty's Yin Jian, the autumn of my life. All officials and ministers are cool and have the heart of a king, and brothers cannot be guarded by soldiers; Playing Empress Dowager Cixi, Empress Dowager Cixi does whatever she wants. I need to tell my master and Huangmen to stop enjoying themselves and train officers and soldiers according to their own officers. If they miss driving, they will engage in military law. I will do my best to send my soldiers to the Luoshui pontoon bridge and wait for them very much "(The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji).

Cao Shuang skimped on the emperor's throne, left the emperor in the south of Yishui, cut down trees to make antlers, and recruited thousands of soldiers for self-control. Huan Fan advised Cao Shuang to take the emperor to Xuchang, and issued a document to recruit all the military forces in the world. Cao Shuangyou was indecisive, so he was confused and didn't follow his plan. Xu Yun and Chen Tai were ordered to see Sima Yi overnight to find out what was going on. Sima Yi took the opportunity to count Cao Shuang's faults and said that he should have come back to apologize. Then he sent Cao Shuang's trusted Lieutenant Colonel Yin Wei Damu to tell him that the court only relieved him of his official position and took waterinfo as an oath.

Cao Shuang wanted to believe him, and Huan Fan and others quoted the classics and tried every means to remonstrate, from evening till dawn the next day. Finally, Cao Shuang threw the knife on the ground and said, "Sima Zhengyi should try to seize my rights. When I can express my respect, I am a rich man (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji). Huan Fan cried and said, "Cao Zidan, a beautiful woman, gave birth to a younger brother, a dolphin and a calf! What is the plan today? "(Zi Zhi Tong Jian, Volume 75)!

Cao Shuang presented Sima Yi's letter to the emperor, demanding that the emperor be relieved of his official position and follow him into Beijing. No sooner had the Cao Shuang brothers returned to the mansion than they were surrounded by Sima Yi's army. Sima Yi built a tall building in the four corners of Cao Shuang Mansion, and closely monitored it from upstairs. On one occasion, as soon as Cao Shuang arrived in the backyard with a slingshot, the people upstairs shouted "The general just went southeast" (Zi Tongzhi Jian, Volume 75)! Cao Shuang was depressed and at a loss.

Soon, Sima Yi killed Cao Shuang and his followers Yanhe, Ding Mi, Deng Yang, Bi Gui, Li Sheng and Huan Fan. The charge was rebellion, which wiped out three tribes. From then on, the military and political power of Cao Wei completely fell into the hands of Sima Yi, which laid the foundation for Sima Shi to replace Cao Wei. In February of the same year, the emperor appointed Sima Yi as Prime Minister.

In the spring of the second year of Jiaping (250), Emperor Wei ordered Sima Yi to set up a temple in Luoyang. Sima Yi was ill for a long time and refused to be invited to the court. Every time something important happens, the son of heaven personally goes to his house for advice. Yanzhou secretariat Yu, Ling (in Shouchun) saw that the emperor was weak, and forced the minister to monopolize power and made Cao Pi king of Chu. Hu Ling was a fool before he was sent.

In the first month of spring in the third year of Jiaping (25 1), the tomb asked for troops to conquer under the pretext of Wu people. Sima Yi knew his plot and didn't make a move. In April, personally led the China army against the tomb. Sima Yi did the same thing again. First, he wrote a pardon to forgive the crime of bullying, and then he wrote a letter to comfort him, but soon the army suddenly arrived. Knowing that she was poor, the tomb greeted her by boat alone, sent officials to see the king or confess her sins, and gave her seals and sacrifices.

Sima Yijun arrived at Wuqiu, and the tomb was tied to the water to wait on him. He said, "If Ling is guilty, you should call her back. Why invite evil! " Sima Yi said, "You are not a simple guest, so your ears have fallen off" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji). After that, he ordered the generals to lead 600 troops to send the tomb to Luoyang. The tomb asked Sima Yi for the nail on the coffin, and wanted to test it to see if Sima Yi wanted to kill himself. Sima Yi ordered his men to find it and give it to him. Later, the tomb passed by Jiakui Temple and shouted, "Jia Liangdao! The tomb is a loyal minister of Wei, but only God knows him "(The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji). In May, the tomb went to Xiangcheng, desperate, and died of taking poison.

Wei Emperor appointed Sima Yi as the prime minister, Anping as the county magistrate, a grandson and a younger brother as the marquis, and there were 50,000 food cities and 19 marquis. Sima yi resigned as prime minister and county magistrate.

Apart from military affairs, Sima Yi also made great contributions to Wei in economy. Records of Food Goods in the Book of Jin recorded that Sima Yi and Deng Ai founded reclamation in Huainan, which played an important role in promoting the recovery and development of the northern economy, especially increasing Cao Wei's financial resources and supporting the war with Soochow.

In the third year of Jiaping (25 1), Sima Yi died in June and in August at the age of 72.

In September of that year, Sima Yi was buried in Yin He and Zheng Wen, and later renamed Wenxuan. When Wei Chan arrived, Emperor Wu of Jin named Sima Yi Xuan Di, calling his mausoleum plateau and the temple Gaozu.

Sima Yi is a man who is "jealous inside and generous outside, suspicious and changeable" (The Book of Jin Xuandi Ji).
