Yecheng Imperial Palace.

After Wenpin answered Cao Cao's other details about Yamatai's army, he returned to his house to rest.

In the palace, Cao Cao was thinking about the situation of Yamatai, and at the same time, he was concerned about the growing calls from the Central Government to capture Yamatai.

Wenpin went to Yamatai twice and brought back a lot of information about Yamatai.

In addition, both Cao Zhi and Cao Pi hoped to gain the crown prince position by conquering Yamatai and opening up territory for the Wei Dynasty.

Therefore, Sima Yi, who supported Cao Pi as the crown prince, as well as Taiwei Jia Xu, Shangshu Ling Cui Yan, Yushi Zhongcheng Chen Qun and others, had all begun to build momentum for Cao Pi in the court.

This first step illustrates the urgency of capturing Yamatai as soon as possible.

The second step is naturally to lead the troops to capture the Yamatai general, and it must be Cao Pi.

Yang Xiu, who supported Cao Zhi, as well as Xicao Yu Dingyi, Huangmen Shilang Ding and his brothers, as well as Nanyang Governor Yang Jun and Yuzhou Governor Jia Kui, etc., also explained in the court that the Wei Dynasty should capture Yamatai as soon as possible. matter.

This time, Cao Pi and Cao Zhi worked together as brothers to capture Yamatai.

However, both Cao Pi and Cao Zhi believed that they had the best chance of leading the Wei navy to capture Yamatai in person.

Cao Cao had already decided on the candidate for the crown prince. Naturally, he knew that the driving forces behind it were Cao Zhi and Cao Pi.

And Cao Cao also understood that after the Wei Dynasty unified the world, there were almost no wars.

The recent rebellion in Nanzhong and Xianbei's imminent attack on Youzhou have been perfectly solved by Bai Feng.

The other generals of the Wei Dynasty faced the Wei Dynasty's increasingly powerful army, but looking around the world they had no opponents, which was really a pity.

Now that a Yamatai finally came out, it was possible for these generals to lead the army again and achieve military exploits, especially the military exploits that opened up territory for the Wei Dynasty. No general would not be moved.

The civil servants also hoped that Cao Cao would appoint a prince as soon as possible so that they could start preparing to assist the new king of Wei.

After all, procrastinating like this is not conducive to the stability of Wei Dynasty.

Therefore, due to the emergence of Yamatai, the civil servants and generals of the Wei Dynasty also stood on the same position.

Facing the common expectations of everyone in the court, Cao Cao naturally could not continue to suppress him, unless he declared war on Yamatai after appointing the crown prince.

Cao Cao had indeed planned this before, but who knew that the plan could not keep up with the changes.

The latest news that Wenpin brought back from Yamatai directly dispelled Cao Cao's recent plan to attack Yamatai.

"We should explain to the ministers the difficulties of capturing Yamatai during the court meeting."

"The canonization of the crown prince was originally planned before the capture of Yamatai, but now it seems that the time should be moved forward a little further."

Cao Cao made changes to his original plan in his mind.

Wenpin, who returned to his residence, didn't get much time to rest.

Because after learning that Wenpin had returned to Yecheng and reported the latest situation about Yamatai to Cao Cao, Cao Pi and Cao Zhi both sent people to visit Wenpin's house, wanting to know the latest information about Yamatai as soon as possible. information.

Wenpin, who had already changed into regular clothes, was just lying on the bed when he heard someone from the family say outside the door:

"General, Minister Sima is here to visit!"

So Wenpin had no choice but to get up from the bed and gather his energy to see Sima Yi.

I originally thought about following Cao Zhi or Cao Pi to capture the evil horse platform, and easily obtain the Wenpin of Conglong Gong, but now I have no hope of capturing the evil horse platform in a short time.

So when facing Sima Yi, Wenpin was no longer so excited.

"General Wen, why are you disturbing me, hahaha!"

Sima Yi waited at Wenpin's house for a while, and then saw Wenpin in regular clothes walking quickly with a smile on his face.

"Hahaha, Sir Sima, don't worry too much, let's talk about it in the study!"

Wenpin smiled at Sima Yi after hearing this, and then the two of them went to the study together.

After arriving in the study, Wenpin knew what Sima Yi wanted to ask. After the servants brought tea and snacks, Wenpin took a sip of hot tea and said to Sima Yi:

"Servant, the news we got from Yamatai this time is a little bad!"

After Sima Yi heard this, the smile on his face was obvious.

"What news did General Wen learn this time at Yamatai?"

Then Sima Yi asked Wenpin.

This time Sima Yi came to Wenpin's house. In addition to asking about the situation of Yamatai, he also wanted to know how Cao Cao reacted after learning the latest news about Yamatai.

Cao Zhi and Cao Pi joined forces to build momentum, making the capture of Yamatai the hottest topic in Yecheng.

The people of Yecheng now know that Yamatai is a treasure land full of gold and silver, and the Wei Dynasty is ready to take this treasure land into its pocket.

Now Wenpin suddenly told himself that the situation was not good, and Sima Yi suddenly took it seriously.

"Secretary Sima, this evil horse's army has more than 20,000 people!"

Wenpin said to Sima Yi in a deep voice.

"Twenty thousand?!"

Sima Yi said in surprise when he heard this.

Previously, everyone estimated that Yamatai had no more than 10,000 troops, but now Wenpin said it was more than 20,000.

It’s more than doubled!

How could this Yamatai support more than 20,000 soldiers?

Like Cao Cao, Sima Yi also had this kind of doubt first in his mind.

"Exactly!"

Wenpin nodded again and then told Sima Yi about his experiences at the Poseidon Festival.

After Sima Yi heard this, he couldn't help but fell silent.

After a while, he asked Wenpin:

"What is His Majesty's attitude?"

When Wenpin heard this, he didn't say it too directly:

"After His Majesty inquired about the situation of Yamatai's army, he had no other explanation."

Hearing Wenpin's answer, Sima Yi knew that Cao Cao would not use troops against Yamatai in the short term.

Before, Cao Pi and Cao Zhi joined forces to create momentum, but now it has lost its meaning.

"Thank you, General Wen. Then I won't disturb General Wen's rest any more."

Sima Yi then said goodbye to Wenpin.

Shortly after Sima Yi left, Yang Xiu also came to Wenpin's house.

Wenpin directly told Yang Xiu what he had just said to Sima Yi.

After Yang Xiu heard this, he also left Wenpin's house with a thoughtful look on his face.

At the same time, Cao Pi and Cao Zhi, who were waiting for Sima Yi and Yang Xiu to come back to explain the situation at Yamatai, felt faintly uneasy in their hearts.

After all, this time Sima Yi and Yang Xiu spent much longer in Wenpin's house than the previous two times.

At the same time, Cao Cao also sent people to inform all the officials in Yecheng that a court meeting would be held tomorrow.
