"Father, it will take at least about a year to develop combat power for this newly expanded cavalry. This long time makes Cao Liang's thief free and unwilling to accept it." Sima Shi said angrily.

Sima Yi also fell silent. It really took time to train new cavalry, so Sima Yi would not attack easily before the new cavalry entered the battle.

But if you don’t attack, you will face another problem, that is, you will give Cao Liang enough time to prepare for the final battle, so that Cao Liang can easily prepare for the final battle.

This is obviously something Sima Yi didn't want to see. Even if Bingzhou has limited manpower and material resources, giving Cao Liang more opportunities is equivalent to reducing their chances of winning.

It seems that some troops need to be dispatched to disturb Bingzhou and make Cao Liang's life less comfortable.

Sima Yi pondered for a moment, had a plan, and said to Sima Shi: "Tomorrow, I will go to court for my father, and I will ask the emperor for an edict, and order the governor of Youzhou Wuqiu Jianke to advance troops and quell the rebellion in Bingzhou."

When Sima Shi heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "Two birds with one stone, my father's trick!"

If Cao Liang is Sima Yi's obvious enemy, then Wu Qiu Jian can be regarded as Sima Yi's potential opponent.

When Sima Yi went to the battle of Gongsun Yuan in Liaodong, Wuqiu Jian served as Sima Yi's deputy, but the two had disagreements and had grievances and conflicts, so their relationship was not harmonious.

During the Battle of Liaodong, Wuqiu Jian proposed a strategy, but Sima Yi did not adopt it. In the end, Sima Yi used his own method to break through Xiangping City and kill Gongsun Yuan. At that time, the army was full of joy, but Wuqiu Jian was unhappy.

Later, Sima Yi returned to the court, and Wuqiu Jian stayed in Youzhou and served as the governor of Youzhou.

The main reason why Wuqiu Jian and Sima Yi were not dealing with each other was because he was not Sima Yi's direct line. Although he had served under Sima Yi, Wuqiu Jian's success was because of Cao Rui. It was precisely because of Emperor Ming Cao Rui that Wuqiu Jian had the opportunity to sit in the position of a chief official.

Wu Qiu Jian is a person who values ​​emotion and gratitude. Although Cao Rui died early, he has always been grateful to Cao Rui and often regards himself as a loyal minister of the Cao family. Naturally, he is dissatisfied with the ambitious Sima Yi.

Especially after the Gaopingling Incident, Wu Qiu Jian almost stood on the opposite side of Sima Yi, with his own troops and frequent activities, and he was almost rebellious. He was also another person listed on the blacklist after Sima Yi, following Wang Ling and Cao Liang.

However, Wang Ling's defeat had a great impact on Wu Qiu Jian. He calmed down, and the Youzhou area was temporarily peaceful.

This is also a good thing for Sima Yi. At least when he deals with Cao Liang, he doesn't have to be distracted from dealing with Wu Qiu Jian.

However, Sima Shi's words just now reminded Sima Yi that instead of spending time with Cao Liang like this, it would be better to send an army to harass Bingzhou, so that Cao Liang was exhausted and had no time and energy to prepare for the war.

But what army is appropriate to send?

Undoubtedly, the Youzhou army, which is still loyal to the court, has become the first choice. Wuqiu Jian did not raise an army to participate in the rebellion, so he had to pinch his nose to implement the edict issued by Cao Fang. As long as the war between Youzhou and Bingzhou begins, Sima Yi's plan to kill two birds with one stone will be completed. Even if they do not work hard to fight, at least they have to do it. As long as they can waste his strength, it will naturally be beneficial to Sima Yi without any harm.

What's more, Sima Yi is still at the back of the way in Youzhou. Once Wuqiu Jian makes any changes, the chess piece that Sima Yi secretly hides will play a role.

┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄

Wu Qiu Jian did encounter great troubles. Sima Yi launched a coup in Luoyang to usurp power and seize the throne. Wu Qiu Jian, as a loyal minister of the Wei family, was naturally quite angry.

On the surface, Sima Yi was loyal to the Queen Mother and took over Cao Shuang, who was in chaos and troubled the country, but Sima Yi did not return the power to Cao Fang. Cao Fang, who had grown up, was still a puppet, and the great power of the government was from then on.

Although Wuqiu Jian was far away in Youzhou, he knew very well the nature of this coup. He also knew that after Sima Yi came to power, he would inevitably eliminate dissidents, and he would be the target of Sima Yi's purge.

The conflict between Wuqiu Jian and Sima Yi has been around for a long time. In the third year of Qinglong, Wuqiu Jian was responsible and valued by Emperor Ming Cao Rui, so he had already served as the governor of Youzhou and also served as the general of Du Liao and the captain of Huwuhuan.

In the fourth year of Qinglong, Gongsun Yuan proclaimed himself the King of Yan and rebelled. Wu Qiu Jian, the governor of Youzhou, naturally had to send troops to pacify him. However, Gongsun Yuan occupied Liaodong in the past and was strong. Wu Qiu Jian went to the expedition and had no choice but to lead his troops back.

The following year, the court sent troops to avoid Sima Yi as the Grand Governor and sent troops to fight against Gongsun Yuan. Wuqiu Jian could only go to the battle as Sima Yi's deputy.

From the top leader of Youzhou to the deputy of others, Wu Qiu Jian was naturally depressed. He actively offered advice and was rejected by Sima Yi, which was probably the beginning of two cracks. Sima Yi pacified Liaodong and had a glory, while Wu Qiu Jian became the most depressing person.

Although Wuqiu Jian sent troops to Goguryeo twice when he was guarding Youzhou, he returned with great victory, but it seemed that he could not heal the shadow Sima Yi brought to him.

The Gaopingling Incident exposed Sima Yi's wolves ambitions. Wu Qiu Jian, who was loyal to the court, was naturally very angry. Even if Sima Yi deliberately bought people's hearts and appointed Wu Qiu Jian as the governor of Youzhou, he could not calm Wu Qiu Jian's anger.

When Bingzhou and Huainan held up the banner of righteousness and resisted Sima Yi, Wuqiu Jian was also quite moved and wanted to raise an army to oppose Sima Yi.

During this period, it was probably the time when Wuqiu Jian was most active. He secretly mobilized his troops and even prepared the banner of serving the king.

However, Wuqiu Jian's actions were opposed by some of his subordinates and prefects. They believed that Sima Yi now controls the government and has power all over the world, and Youzhou is not a wealthy place, with limited population and military strength. If he raises troops to fight Sima Yi, it would be like hitting a stone with an egg and gamble with the lives of the soldiers and civilians of Youzhou to gamble. This is not a wise move.

Although Bingzhou and Huainan have rebelled, the situation is not very optimistic. These generals and prefects have persuaded Wu Qiujian to wait and see. If Huainan and Bingzhou are successful, it will not be too late for Youzhou to raise the flag of righteousness again. If Huainan and Bingzhou are defeated, they will persuade Wu Qiujian to give up this idea as soon as possible.

Wu Qiu Jian hesitated and finally decided to wait and see and see the changes in the situation.
