The news of Wang Ji's defeat soon reached Yecheng. Sima Yi was furious when he saw it. The advantage he had finally gained was defeated by Wang Ji, and he scolded Wang Ji over and over again in his heart.

He even forgot that not long ago, he praised Wang Ji for using troops as a god, and his previous advantages were also developed by Wang Ji.

When this happened, Sima Yi called Yang Xiu over immediately.

The only person around him who could discuss and was close to him was Yang Xiu, and some other military strategists, who seemed to him not qualified.

When Yang Xiu heard the news, he remained silent. How powerful and arrogant they were before, how embarrassed they were now, and they turned over too quickly.

"General Wang wrote in his letter that he suspected that Chen Yang was not in Luoyang, but in Guo Jia's army."

Yang Xiu nodded slightly and said, "From the current situation, there is indeed a possibility. I also think it is Chen Yang's tricks."

What are the flooding, fire attacks, and various ambushings, and endless means.

According to previous experience in confrontation, they are all methods used by Chen Yang.

When he heard that it was Chen Yang again, Sima Yi's face was a little calmer, and he couldn't blame Wang Ji all the time, and said, "Chen Yang was not delayed by us in Luoyang, no! I think it is necessary to verify this matter. Dezu, please let someone inform Gongsun Yuan and Ding Sui immediately. I want to get the most affirmative news."

"I understand. If Chen Yang is really not in Luoyang, there is only one Cao Ang there, and maybe he can do his best to get Luoyang back."

Yang Xiu thought for a while and said, "If Chen Yang was still there, it might be Guo Jiagang coming. The counterattack method was a bit fierce. General Wang could not adapt for the time being. After all, the battlefield was changing rapidly, and no matter what it was possible."

Sima Yi felt relieved and nodded, "I hope this is true!"

"Your Majesty, I actually have another idea. I don't know if I should raise it."

Yang Xiu hesitated for a long time.

"Da Zu, but it's okay."

Sima Yi still trusts him quite a bit.

"Why don't we make peace with Cao Cao? The grudge between Your Majesty and Cao Cao is actually not too deep. The most important thing is Chen Yang. If we continue to fight like this, neither of us will get benefits. If peace is made, it is not impossible to make peace with each other!"

Yang Xiu said as if he was a little tired.

"What should Chen Yang do?"

Sima Yi snorted coldly and said, "If we make peace, we can't kill Chen Yang again."

"If you make peace, there are many ways to deal with Chen Yang."

Yang Xiu narrowed his eyes and ended up like this. It was brought by Chen Yang. How could he let Chen Yang go? He continued: "We can do this..."

He briefly told Sima Yi about his plan and said: "In the face of absolute interests, there is no eternal enemy. I think Cao Cao may agree."

Sima Yi frowned and said, "In this way, our sacrifice is great!"

Yang Xiu shook his head and said, "If you don't give, you will have no gains. If you sacrifice a little, you will be able to gain even more in the future. I think it's worth it."

"It's reasonable!"

Sima Yi thought for a long time and said, "First do what Dezu said, I will let someone go to Xiangyang, meet Cao Cao, and tell him about the peace talks."

He felt that some things had to be tried before he could find out whether they were feasible. For example, the suggestion Yang Xiu just made was very risky, but it was definitely useful.

In the blink of an eye, several days passed.

Gongsun Yuan outside Luoyang received a letter from Xiangyang, and Sima Yi asked him to find out whether Chen Yang was still in Luoyang.

"I heard that General Wang failed in Xudu and had to retreat to the south bank of the Yellow River. The counterattack method used by the Wei army was very similar to that used by Chen Yang."

Ding Sui saw the letter and briefly analyzed: "Maybe because of this, General Wang felt that Chen Yang might not be in Luoyang, which is also a reminder to us to pay attention to this issue."

"Does General Ding still remember that Chen Yang appeared on the city tower three days ago?"

Gongsun Yuan asked.

"Of course I remember."

Ding Sui nodded and said, "Chen Yang is in Luoyang City, and it is unlikely that he will go to Xudu. Recently, we have been in a stalemate with Cao Ang and we can always see him appearing on the city tower."

"Since Your Majesty doesn't believe it, we can only fight another match and prove to him whether Chen Yang is there?"

Gongsun Yuan thought for a while and continued, "Tonight, we will attack Luoyang, but we should not be too strong. It is enough to attract Chen Yang out."

In Luoyang City, Cao Ang and others also received news of Chen Yang's victory.

"Zi'an is really amazing!"

Cao Ang couldn't help but exclaim.

"But there are disadvantages!"

Xu Shu suddenly said: "If the eldest son was Wang Ji, who was originally invincible, and he pressed Jia Wen and others to Runan to fight, and suddenly they fought back so hard, what would you think?"

Cao Ang thought seriously for a moment and hurriedly said, "Do they think that Zi'an went back to assist?"

"If I were Wang Ji, I would probably think so."

Jiang Wei agreed with Xu Shu's assumption and continued: "Then it is possible that Gongsun Yuan outside will find ways to prove whether the general is in our army."

Cao Ang frowned and said, "How should we deal with it next?"

Jiang Wei said: "Let Gongsun Yuan believe with certainty that the general is here!"

"How to prove this? The fake Zi'an has no way to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, and it is impossible to really show his face outside."

"In the near future, Gongsun Yuan will definitely send troops to attack us. It is not impossible to fight at that time. The two armies fought against each other, and soldiers were very frequent. Just find someone with similar figure and strong strength to pretend to be a general to fight and kill the enemy, even if it is just a killing enemy, it is enough."

This sounds a bit reasonable.

Cao Ang thought for a while and clapped his hands, "Appoint this first, go find someone like this. I'm worried that Gongsun Kang might not be able to wait for long."

"No, the general has always been protected by his brother Wang Yue. Could it be that he can pretend to be Wang Yue?"

Xu Shu immediately found out the disadvantages of this plan. Wang Yue was too strong and difficult to pretend, so he could easily reveal his flaws.

"This will not work, that will not work."

Cao Ang said anxiously: "Two guys, please think of a solution, what else can we do?"

"Brother Wang Yue, we really can't pretend."

Jiang Wei thought for a long time and said, "Do you still remember the incident of using sesame oil to attack when you guard Xu Du?"

When defending Xudu, Jiang Wei had not joined the Wei army, but he had heard of all those deeds. He used a handful of sesame oil to burn all the soldiers who attacked the city. Fire attack was also a common behavior of Chen Yang.

Whether it is flooding or fire attack, Chen Yang is often used to defeat the enemy. At that time, just use the fake Chen Yang to stand on the city wall. Isn’t this a proof of anything?
