After reading "Shishuo Xinyu" today, I know that between Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi, there is another famous person who is courageous and fearless of life and death.

The original text of "Shishuoxinyu"

Zhuge Liang visited Weibin, Guanzhong shocked. Emperor Ming of Wei was deeply afraid of King Xuan of Jin 's war, so he sent Xin Pi as army commander. After King Xuan and Liang met Wei, Liang set out to lure and deceive all directions. King Xuan was very angry and wanted to respond with heavy troops. Liang sent a spy to look at him and said: "There is an old man who resolutely fights with the yellow ax . When the army is established, the army cannot come out." Liang said: "This must be ruled by Xin Zuozhi."

Translation: Zhuge Liang sent troops to the Northern Expedition, and the army Temporarily stationed on the south bank of the Weishui River, this incident caused shock to the Wei State in Guanzhong both internally and externally. At that time, Emperor Wei Ming Cao Rui was very worried that Sima Yi would go to war against Zhuge Liang, so he sent his confidant Xin Pi to serve as a military advisor in the army. After Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang arranged their military formations across the Weishui River, Zhuge Liang planned to trick Sima Yi into fighting. Sure enough, some tricks made Sima Yi furious and wanted to send out heavy troops to fight. The spies sent by Zhuge Liang listened to the information and reported back: "There is an old man, holding a yellow ax in his hand, standing at the gate of the military camp, preventing the army from coming out." Zhuge Liang said, "This man must be Xinpi."

Xinpi, the word George, first from Yuan Shao , and later to Cao Cao . Emperor Wen of Wei and Emperor Ming During the two dynasties, Xin Pi repeatedly opposed the construction of palace buildings and the establishment of labor services. He once held on to the train of Emperor Wen of Wei and refused to let him go. He was a man of integrity who dared to resist his direct advice. It turns out that there is such a touching story about him being caught between Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi.

During the reign of Emperor Wei Ming, Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition attacked Wei. Lord Wu Sun Quan later also cooperated with Zhuge Liang to attack Hefei Xincheng several times. However, Emperor Wei Ming, as the grandson of Cao Cao, resolutely implemented the strategic defense policy implemented since Cao Cao, using Man Chong to guard Huainan to prevent Wu, and Cao Zhen and Sima Yi to guard Guanzhong to ward off the Shu Han. The purpose was to prevent the opponent from entering the war. They must retreat when they run out of food, so Wei Ming was very worried that Sima Yi (King Xuan of Jin) would send troops to fight. Therefore, when Shu and Han were at war, the Wei State's military policy was determined, insisting on holding on to the enemy's strength, in order to achieve the military goal of retreating without attacking.

It can be seen that Emperor Wei Ming sent Xin Pi to intimidate Sima Yi, which can be said to be a win. Just imagine, such a Lord Xinpi, who dares to offend even Tianwei Longyan, why should he be afraid of Sima Yi? !

Facts have proved that Emperor Wei Ming used Xin Pi to check and balance Sima Yi, which was a superior move. Emperor Ming had the ability to know people well, Xin Pi had the merit to fulfill his mission, and Sima Yi was able to avoid fighting and follow the tide. When wise men meet, everyone is very happy. It has been passed down as a good story for thousands of years!

Sima Guang's "Zizhi Tongjian" of the Northern Song Dynasty also records a story between these three people:

Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang stayed together for more than a hundred days. The number of bright challenges is overwhelming. Liang Nai left behind Yi's attire of a maiden. In anger, he came forward to ask for a battle. The emperor sent Wei Wei Xinpi Zhanjie to be the military advisor to control it. Guarding the Army Jiang Wei said to Liang: "Xin Zuozhi arrived at the battle, and the thieves will not come back." Liang said: "They have no intention of fighting, so they insist on inviting the warriors to show their strength. The general will be in the army. "If you don't accept your orders, how can you conquer me even though you are thousands of miles away?"

basically means "The armies of Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang faced off for more than a hundred days. Zhuge Liang challenged him several times, but Sima Yi could not hold on." Zhuge Liang sent someone to give Sima Yi women's clothing. Sima Yi was furious and wrote a letter requesting a war. The emperor sent Wei Wei Xinpi to hold an envoy as a military advisor to restrain Sima Yi. The guard Jiang Wei said to Zhuge Liang: "Xin Zuozhi's envoy has arrived, and the enemy will definitely not go to war."

Zhuge Liang said: "Sima Yi had no intention of going to war in the first place, so he insisted on requesting to go to war in order to demonstrate to his subordinates (to boost morale). . The general is in the army, and he doesn’t have to accept the emperor’s orders. If he can really defeat me, why would he travel thousands of miles to ask for instructions? "

Oh, I seem to understand, Xinpi has always been Sima Yi's" Valve " Yeah.
