Sima Yi: Forced into a class opposition Heroes of the Three Kingdoms, Economic Minister of the Four Dynasties. Deploying troops to drive away tigers and leopards, adopting a unicorn. Zhuge often talks about envy, can return to the spring!
This is the evaluation of Mr. Luo Guanzhong, the author of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, to Sima Yi. You must know that this old gentleman hated the most chaotic ministers and thieves in his life. In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he forcibly smeared Boss Cao as a white-faced traitor and misled him. People for hundreds of years, but they have such a high evaluation of Sima Yi, who is better than Cao Cao. It seems that this person is not simple. Today we will talk about his glorious history.
Be cautious and be cautious and be cautious.
Since Sima Yi has usurped the Cao family, many literary works for thousands of years have portrayed him as a chaotic thief who was born to seek to usurp the throne, but the author does not believe such an assertion , No one can weave a conspiracy for decades, because the relationship between the characters involved is too complicated, the time is too long, the variables are too large, and it is impossible to do it.
Sima Yi was born in the Sima clan in Hanoi, and was ranked second in the wealthy society at that time. Even in the second rank, the ranking was not too high. Compared with the Xun clan in Yingchuan and the Cui clan in Qinghe, the second rank The top students are still too far behind. Compared with the fourth and third princes, the Yuan family of Runan and the Yang family of Hongnong, whose disciples and officials spread all over the world, it is not worth mentioning. Sima Yi's family is located in today's Hanoi area. Cao Yuan's battle for hegemony.
A little mistake in such a sensitive position will lead to an ugly death. In AD 200, which is the year when the Battle of Guandu broke out, Cao Cao sent someone to recruit Sima Yi, because someone recommended him in front of Cao Cao. A young talent, Cao Cao agreed in order to win over the Sima family to consolidate his local rule.
History records that Sima Yi pretended to have a stroke after receiving the notice of inauguration and rejected Cao Cao's job application. It is said that because he looked down on Cao Cao as an eunuch, he didn't want to join forces, and his ambition was very pure! But it's all lies, don't believe it. When Cao Cao was young, he used to be the director of the Luoyang North District Public Security Bureau, which was recommended by Sima Yi's father, Sima Fang. If he looked down on him, he would have looked down on him. The reason why
rejected Cao Cao is nothing more than two reasons:
was about to break out the battle of Guandu for the first time, and the aristocratic families were generally optimistic about Yuan Shao, but not Cao Cao. Hanoi was still at the forefront of the war between the two sides, and at this time, just stand in line , if Yuan Shao wins in the future, he will inevitably be liquidated.
The second is because there is a problem with the person who recommended Sima Yi. This person is called Wei Chong. He used to be Cao Cao's most optimistic person. Cao Cao even said in front of everyone: Even if everyone in the world betrays me, Wei Chong will not betray mine.
But the slap in the face soon came. Once Cao Cao offended the aristocratic family in the base area, and Lu Bu and Chen Gongli cooperated to take over the base area. At that time, Wei Zhong stayed behind, because he didn't stick to the bottom line, he dropped. Cao Cao's face snapped, and he put down his harsh words: Even if your kid goes north and goes south, I will hunt you down.
Later, Cao Cao quelled the rebellion, and Wei Zhong also fell into his hands. After all, Cao Cao was still magnanimous. Atonement! In order to repay Cao Cao for his life, Wei Chong also applied to the front line Hanoi to resist Yuan Shao. This was the scene where he recommended Sima Yi.Sima Yi didn't want to have anything to do with him, and he really agreed. If he came out in the future, he would be stabbed in the spine: Oh, isn't that the person recommended by the soft-headed Wei Zhong?
In 208 AD, after Cao Cao unified the north, Xun Lingjun sent a letter of appointment, and Sima Yi ran over immediately. How could it be that he looked down on the eunuch and was unwilling to join forces? In the era of Cao Cao, Sima Yi can basically be divided into two stages. The first stage was the Battle of Chibi in 208 AD, and Cao Pi was established as the prince in 217 AD. During this period, he only did two things to help Cao Pi and pit Cao Cao.
First, he actively intervened in Cao Cao's family affairs and Yang Xiu had a lot of fun. After Cao Cao defeated Ma Chao to take Liangzhou in AD 214, he actively encouraged Cao Cao to kill Liu Bei, who was not stable.
At that time, Cao Cao's rear was very unstable, and the various opposition forces were already turbulent. If they were stuck in the quagmire of Sichuan and fought with Liu Bei, it was hard to say what would happen. In the same year, Sun Quan sent a congratulatory form, saying that he wanted to support Cao Cao and become emperor. Cao Cao is a shrewd person, saying: This kid wants to bake me on the stove! Zhongda, what do you think? Sima Yi obviously thought that Sun Quan's stove was not hot enough, and added another fire: The Han Dynasty's fortunes have ended, and nine-tenths of the world is in your hands, so you should quickly obey the destiny! Cao Cao ignored him.
The second stage is from AD 217 to AD 220. This stage is the honeymoon period, because Cao Pi has been established as the prince, which means that Cao Cao has begun to bow his head to the aristocratic family and admit defeat. In 219, Guan Yu's northern expedition to the Central Plains flooded the Seventh Army and shook China.
Seeing that Emperor Xian of Han was about to fall into Liu Bei's hands, Cao Cao was so frightened that he wanted to move the capital, but Sima Yi finally made his move: Don't be afraid, the defeat of Yu Jin is not a strategic problem for us, victory or defeat is a matter of military affairs. Jingzhou has been around for a long time, and if you ally with him, you will be able to repel Guan Yu.
Sure enough, not long after, Lv Meng crossed the river in white clothes, Guan Yu was defeated and went to Maicheng, and a generation of heroes came to an end. Zhuge Prime Minister's Long Zhong was completely bankrupt on the strategy.
From the above behaviors, it can be seen that Sima Yi is always speaking on behalf of the interests of the aristocratic family. In the time of Cao Rui, Emperor Wei Ming, something like this happened. The imperial court wanted to check the land and clear the population. Sima Yi said that Shu Han used severe punishments to oppress the people, so people did not obey them. Therefore, Your Majesty, you should use leniency and benevolence to govern the people. , open one eye and close one eye! Governor Sima is really the pillar of the country!
The rebellion was really forced.
The last time Sima Yi acted as an agent for his own class was in the change of Gao Ping Ling, when Emperor Wei Ming Cao Rui died, leaving him alone with Sima Yi and Cao Shuang, but this Cao Shuang could not resist the temptation of power. At that time, he was able to discuss everything with Sima Yi, and always regarded himself as a junior. Later, under the bewitchment of people around him, he began to gradually overshadow a group of ministers from a wealthy family headed by Sima Yi, and re-concentrated power into the hands of the Cao family.
He actually dared to do things that Cao Cao couldn't do back then.
He moved other people's cheese but didn't kill them all, which buried a big thunder for himself.The old comrades can't take it anymore. Minister Tuogu, the elders of the four dynasties, and the highly respected Master Sima, how long will you wait if you don't stand up? If Sima Yi dares to evade this responsibility, then the Sima family will not have to come out and mess around in the future. Cao Shuang will definitely be blamed for his turmoil. We all know the result of the
incident, so I won't say much here, let's talk about the situation of Sima Yi after the change of Gao Ping Mausoleum. In the past, as an agent of the class, he went to bargain with the emperor, no matter what. There is room for manoeuvre. Now this wave is too big. Do you want to be a loyal minister and return the power to the Cao family?
no. After that, the emperors will definitely be liquidated. They may not dare to be enemies with the entire wealthy class, but the Sima family, who is the culprit and the chief evil, will definitely not be able to escape that sword. There is no way out now, and now the power is still in my hands, I can't be the second Cao Shuang by doing things while I'm alive!
Born into an aristocratic family, serving the wealthy and wealthy class is the fate that Sima Yi cannot get rid of in this life. Does he dare to betray his own class and become enemies with his father, brother and friends? You can only be a knife in the hands of the class all your life. When it comes to the end, you are actually forced to the opposite side by your own class. You must know that imperial power and wealthy families are never compatible. Sometimes too good is a tragedy!
