Chapter 1400 Chaos before war(2/2)

"Although Tuoba Kehan ​​has left, the alliance between me and the Tuoba clan is still there, and the Han army is pressing ahead. Just when we are joining forces closely, how can I ignore the civil strife of the Tuoba clan?"

Sima Yi's words were nothing more than clear support for Tuoba Xilu to take charge of the last 50,000 people of the Tuoba clan.

Tuoba Xulu was sure that he had heard correctly. His face finally showed an expression of being extremely moved, and even his lips trembled a little, but he remained silent. Finally, his attitude finally became respectful:

"Tai Tuo... Tuoba Xulu, thank Tai Tu for his kindness! I was ignorant and bumped into Tai Tu earlier. I deserve to die. I hope Tai Tu will forgive me."

Regarding Tuoba Xulu's initiative to admit his mistakes, Sima Taifu was naturally a great man and ignored the villain's faults.

After laughing it off and exhorting some more, both parties expressed that they would cooperate sincerely in the future to defeat Thief Feng.

Before leaving, Master Sima repeatedly reminded Tuoba Xulu that he must appease the tribe in time and hand over to him the list of candidates who are most likely to win over as soon as possible before leaving.

Tuoba Xilu was so grateful that he naturally agreed again and again.

After sending Taifu Sima out of the house, he watched Taifu Sima drive away in his car, and then he turned around and went back.

But he didn't know that the amiability on the face of Master Sima who had just lowered the curtain of the carriage and was sitting in the carriage suddenly disappeared.

Sima Yi closed his eyes for a long time, seeming to be thinking about something, and then suddenly asked the people in the car:

"Lan Shi, what do you think of Tuoba Xulu?"

Fu Gu, the lieutenant who came with Sima Yi, bowed when he heard this and said:

"Taifu, if you think about it, a few days ago, this person was quite rude to Taifu, but now he is more respectful. From this point of view, this person is rude when he is in power, and cowardly when he is in power."

"As the saying goes, it is true that Di Yi is afraid of power but not virtuous! The war in Hebei must not be pinned on this person."

When Fu Gu served as Cao Shuang's assistant, he was the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. He saw at a glance that He Yan, one of the Three Dogs in Taichung, was not a kind person. He once said privately to Cao Shuang's younger brother Cao Xi:

"Uncle He Ping is quiet on the outside but sweet and clever on the inside. He loves profit and does not care about his roots. I am afraid that I will deceive my brothers first. The benevolent people will be far away and the government will be abolished."

However, not only did brother Cao Shuang refuse to listen, the words were also spread to the ears of He Yan. In the end, He Yan dismissed Fu Gu from his official position over a trivial matter.

Fu Gu can be regarded as one of the first talents to abandon Cao Shuang and join Sima Yi, so Sima Yi attaches great importance to Fu Gu.

At this time, Sima Yi heard Fu Gu's words and nodded slowly, then frowned again with a look of anger on his face:

"Yes! I noticed earlier that this person had an arrogant tone, and threatened to make Thief Feng never come back. I just thought that this person was very courageous, so I tolerated his rudeness again and again."

"I didn't expect that when I look at it today, it turns out that he is just an ignorant person who has never seen the world. As soon as Tuoba Liwei was destroyed, this person became a cowardly person. He didn't even meet the Han army and was timid before fighting.

.”

Fu Gu consoled him: "How many people in the world can be as perseverant and persevering as Taifu? Now that the situation has changed, Taifu should think of countermeasures in time."

"Based on Thief Feng's cunning and vicious behavior, after destroying the Tuoba clan, he is probably targeting the Taifu. In order to cut off the Taifu's support, he must have a back-up plan."

Neither flattering nor flattering made Sima Yi feel better. Instead, he groaned:

"Why don't I know this? That's why I came to look for Tuoba Xulu in a hurry. I wanted to discuss matters with him, but I didn't expect... Humph!"

Thinking of Tuoba Xulu's ugly behavior just now, Sima Yi's face became more and more gloomy:

"In that case, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

When Fu Gu heard this, he quickly asked: "Does the Grand Master have a plan?"

Sima Yi did not answer, but asked:

“What should I do after what Ilan Stone sees?”

Fu Gu said without hesitation:

"Tuoba Xilu is incompetent. Even with the help of the Grand Tutor, there is no way to completely replace Tuoba Liwei and command the 50,000 elite cavalry. It would be better for the Grand Tutor to take charge of it himself."

When Sima Yi heard this, his face turned from anger to joy, and he said with a smile:

"What Lan Shi said really touched my heart."

Then he lowered his voice: "Actually, that's what I meant."

"Oh?" Fu Gu also had a look of joy on his face, "It turns out that what Gu Gu expected was true. The Master already had an idea."

Sima Yi nodded and said:

"I asked Tuoba Xilu to point out people he could win over. On the surface, I said I wanted to help him, but in fact, I did the opposite. Whoever disobeyed Tuoba Xilu, I would provide adequate food and clothing."

"Over time, those who are willing to rely on Tuoba Xilu will sooner or later lose their support. When the time comes, these remnants of Tuoba will naturally fall into my hands."

As for whether these people will refuse to obey and run away...

For the bereaved dogs that have entered the borders of Hebei, it is already a huge kindness for me to give them a place to stay. Why do you still want to run away?

Over the years, the horses traded from the frontier fortress have become less and less, more and more expensive, and worse and worse. Now, someone suddenly gave him such a cavalry. Sima Yi just felt that God was blessing him.

Heaven and God cannot take it, but they are to blame.
