Sima Yi was very worried about the future situation. He had seen Cao Cao's good intentions back then, but even if he understood many things, it was too difficult to change them.

The national policy of the Great Wei has been decided. If you want to change it at this time, the resistance is not very large. It does not come from foreign enemies. No matter how strong the Han Dynasty is, there is always a way to stop the soldiers and waters. The real problem is that the national policy of the Great Wei itself does not support the development of work. Even because Cao Cao was dissatisfied with the public, now that Cao Cao has lost Cao Cao, the craftsmen in the Great Wei territory have been suppressed, and many craftsmen have defected to the Eastern Wu or the Great Han.

After all, whether it is the Eastern Wu or the Great Han Dynasty, they are now focusing on improving the status of craftsmen in national policies. Needless to say, the great Han Dynasty had Liu Yi, the world's number one craftsman, who was in the court with high power, while Liu Bei himself and Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, the senior civil and military officials such as Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei were already supportive of the development of the work.

In recent years, Eastern Wu has been buying many excellent equipment from the Han Dynasty. When fighting against the Cao army, he has also tasted the sweetness. While imitating the equipment from the Han Dynasty, he will also improve the treatment and status of craftsmen and form his own craftsman team. In recent years, he has also been quite effective because he has been constantly imitating the Han Dynasty.

But it is difficult for the Wei Dynasty to restart the construction regulations set by Cao Cao that year...

"General, why are our army frowning after repelling Guan Yu?" Le Qian came to report and said in confusion when he saw Sima Yi's expression.

Sima Yi sighed and shook his head and said, "I don't have to worry about some past events. Although Guan Yu retreated temporarily, he would not leave here. Let the soldiers be careful."

Le Feng smiled and said, "With this batch of equipment, why are you afraid of the Han army?"

"Yes." Sima Yi nodded without saying much, but this thing is just the tip of the iceberg of others. The Han army is probably not too bad. They have equipped these, but they are only equal to the Han army in terms of equipment, and they have only equipped 3,000 people so far. They are really head-on, but they are not as optimistic as they are now.

On the other hand, Guan Yu retreated to build a camp. This was probably the first time that the Han army personally faced the weapons made by Liu Yi. It felt really not very good.

"The order Liao Hua to mobilize a group of catapults and crossbows from Yique Pass." After a long time of recession, Guan Yu also knew that with Sima Yi's law-abiding approach, it was difficult to break through the camp without using siege equipment. Although there were Liu Yi's disciples in the army, the weapons made were not as good as those made by Liu Yi, and they were much worse in terms of range and power.

"Here!" A personal guard agreed and went to pass the order.

Zhou Cang looked at Guan Yu with some concern and said, "Mr. Jun. It will take at least three days for this siege equipment to be transported from Yiqueguan!"

If it was a weekday, three days were naturally nothing. They could afford to wait, but the food and grass in the army could only last for three days. After three days, both Yiqueguan and Guan Yu would be in a dilemma of no food available, so there was not so much time for them to wait slowly.

Guan Yu nodded when he heard this. He didn't know the truth, but if he didn't use siege equipment and wanted to break the camp, he would have to take his life to make a living!

Guan Yu is arrogant, but he takes good care of the soldiers. He naturally doesn't want to play like this.

"Let the engineers in the army start making equipment." Guan Yu sighed. Since the quality cannot meet expectations, we should use quantity to pile up now. When the Han army set out to fight this time, there is a team of engineers in each army, commanded by a disciple of Liu Yi. In order to deal with the situation where Liu Yi is away, some siege equipment or city defense facilities are needed. Guan Yu naturally wanted to use the best, but the current conditions do not allow it, so he can only settle for the second best.

"Mr. Lord!" A general suddenly came in from outside the tent and said to Guan Yu: "There is a messenger of Mo Hou asking for a visit!"

"Oh?" Guan Yu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he hurriedly said, "Please!"

"Here!"

After a while, Guan Ping, who was covered in dust, came to Guan Yu's tent. In fact, Guan Ping had already arrived at Yique Pass yesterday, but Guan Yu had already led his army to fight at that time. Guan Ping ignored Liao Hua and Yiji's retention and chased him overnight. In fact, this kind of thing was just a communication between each other and just sending an envoy to come. However, Guan Ping was worried about his father's safety, so he came in person to make sure that Guan Yu was safe.

"Tanzhi?" Guan Yu looked at Guan Ping with some surprise and said, "Why are you here?"

"When my father was in danger, Ping asked Hou Mo to come." Guan Ping breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Guan Yu was safe.

"As a general, how can you depose the public for personal gain?" Guan Yu snorted coldly.

"It was Mo Hou who sent the child to come." Guan Ping quickly explained that if Liu Yi did not allow him, even if Guan Ping's character was uncomfortable, he would definitely not disobey the military order.

When Guan Yu heard this, his expression calmed down a little. His friendship with Liu Yi for more than ten years would have come for his son because he ignored Liu Yi's military orders, even if Guan Yu valued Guan Ping the most, he would never tolerate it.

"Go back quickly and tell Bo Yuan that the Wei army trapped me here. It is actually Hangu Pass. Tell him not to move lightly!" Guan Yu said in a deep voice.

"Mr. Mo has guessed it." Guan Ping shook his head and said, "Don't worry, Father, Moh has found another road. Yesterday, he sent someone to send a batch of food and grass from Yishui to Yique Pass. However, although this road can connect to Nanyang, the road is difficult to travel and the mountain road is complicated. If military rations are sent from Nanyang, it may last longer. Hangu Pass's military rations cannot supply the cost of both military."

"Let Bo Yuan not be embarrassed." Guan Yu sighed. He was already very grateful that Liu Yi was able to do this.

Guan Ping shook his head: "Mr. Mo Hou has already sent an order that has nothing to do. Shangyong and other places have increased the transportation of grain and grass, but it will take at least one month to transport it. However, the grain and grass delivered this time are only enough to last for seven days."

"Seven days are enough!" Guan Yu's eyes lit up when he heard this. In this way, he had no need to use his life to add to his life. He said immediately: "You go back and tell Bo Yuan so that he doesn't have to worry about this place. Sima Yi is not qualified to break my way back!"

"This is also the reason why Mo Hou asked his son to come here." Guan Ping smiled bitterly: "Mo Hou warned the child that Sima Yi's ability is comparable to Prime Minister Zhuge, so that his father must be careful to deal with it!"

"Oh?" Guan Yu was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that Liu Yi's evaluation of Sima Yi was so high. It's hard to say anything big now. In fact, he had a hard time fighting with Sima Yi before.

"Bo Yuan asked you to come here, what strategy do you have?" Guan Yu suddenly asked.

"Mr. Mo did have an explanation. If Sima Yi is in Luoyang, you should not move lightly. If Sima Yi is in Yang, you can let the child replace his father and pretend to be his father here to bluff. The father will turn back to Yique Pass and try to defeat Cao Xiu first. Although Cao Xiu is crowded and powerful, the elite Wei army may still ambush Mo Hou in Gucheng at this moment. If his father can defeat Cao Xiu and seize Luoyang in the vassal, the siege of Cao's army will be defeated without attacking!" Guan Ping bowed and said.

This is also a loophole that Sima Yi's arrangement this time is not considered a loophole. Originally, Cao Xiu should have been the strongest, but for this reason it has become the deadliest place. If Cao Xiu can be defeated, Liu Yi guessed that Luoyang would not have much military strength at this moment. If Guan Yu could take advantage of the situation to capture Luoyang, Sima Yi's blockade would naturally be defeated without any attack, and would be countered.

The strongest point is that if it can be broken, it will often become the deadliest place. Sima Yi took the Han army's life gate and wanted Liu Yi to crack it. He couldn't think of how to break it now, but since it cannot be broken, he would put it to death and go directly to attack the Wei army's life gate. That would naturally be Cao Xiu. However, only Guan Yu can do this, and Liu Yi naturally could not do it. So he gave Guan Yu the right to choose. If Guan Yu was unwilling to take risks, then think of other solutions.

"Sima Yi is indeed here." Guan Yu said in a deep voice.

"In this way, the child can stay here for his father. With Sima Yi and Zhou Xuan, his father can take people back to Yique Pass quickly to wait for an opportunity to defeat the enemy!" Guan Ping said hurriedly.

"It's not time to go, so I left for my father and returned to Yique Pass, Zhou Cang!" Guan Yu nodded and looked at Zhou Cang.

"The last one is here!" Zhou Cang hurriedly stepped forward.

"You stay and assist Tanzhi and Sima Yi and Zhou Xuan. Sima Yi took a lot of our army's weapons. Tanzhi be careful!" At the end, Guan Yu looked at Guan Ping and instructed that the weapons made by Liu Yi were not a joke. If you shot a trick, you might just hang it directly.

"Don't worry, Father!" Guan Ping said hurriedly.

In order not to make Sima Yi suspicious, Guan Yu changed into the armor of ordinary soldiers and left the military camp alone to Yique Pass.

Guan Ping continued to follow Guan Yu's idea and ordered craftsmen to make siege equipment overnight. At the same time, he changed into Guan Yu's outfit and kept appearing in the army. He inspected the military camp and calmed the morale of the army. He did not let Sima Yi be suspicious. After all, Sima Yi set up a high platform in the camp, and Sima Yi could see the situation here.

Of course, it should not be too frequent, too much is not enough. Liu Yi has believed in how to deceive people. He has studied with Guan Ping specifically. From psychology to behavioral manifestations, Guan Ping is actually the easiest to deceive people. Guan Ping is indeed talented in this regard. The entire army did not have any abnormalities because of Guan Yu's departure. Whether it is outsiders or his own, it is basically no different from Guan Yu in the military camp.

"What are the Han army doing now?" Sima Yi recruited soldiers responsible for investigating Guan Yu's movements in the Wei army camp and asked.

"The other party began to build a catapult in the army again." The soldier bowed.

Sima Yi nodded when he heard this. This was in his calculations, but Guan Yu was unwilling to waste his life to attack the camp, but he missed the last chance. How could he have the kindness of a woman at this time?

After retreating his soldiers, Sima Yi shook his head. If Guan Yu attacked at any cost, he might be worried. After all, the current combat effectiveness of the Han army is really hard for the Wei army, and the final outcome is unpredictable. But at present, Guan Yu chose to fight him step by step, but missed the last chance. He only had to defend for a few days. When the opponent's food was exhausted, Guan Yu's army would naturally defeat him without attacking.
