Three Kingdoms: The identity of the financial master behind the scenes was exposed by Cao Cao

"mutiny?"

Brothers Cao Pi and Cao Zhi were both surprised.

Cao Pi immediately said:"Mother, we don't have military power in our hands, and the number of soldiers and horses that can be mobilized in Ye City is limited. How can the mutiny be successful?"

"Although we don’t have soldiers and horses in our hands, we can use external forces to help us launch a mutiny!"

A strange look flashed across Bian's eyes.

"external force? Cao

Pi became more and more confused and asked,"I don't know what external force the Queen Mother is referring to. I would like to ask the Queen Mother to make it clear." Bian pointed slightly to the west:"Of course, the only external force in the world that can help us succeed in the mutiny is Ma Teng and his son.""

Cao Pi was shocked, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Ma Teng and his son have captured Yizhou, and they are in control of the three states. They are very powerful."

"If his Xiliang cavalry can march out of Tongguan and gallop day and night, they can kill Yecheng in less than five days."

"If we can make good use of Ma Teng and his son, his Xiliang cavalry can take them by surprise, attack Yecheng, help us kill Cao Yuan in one fell swoop, and force your father to abdicate!"

Bian's tone was cold as he revealed his plan.

Brothers Cao Pi and Cao Zhi were shocked and frightened by their mother's bold plan.

"Mother, if we do this, aren’t we inviting wolves into the house?"

"When Yecheng is defeated, the people of the various states in the Wei Dynasty will definitely be frightened. If Ma Teng and his son take advantage of the situation to get involved in the Central Plains and annex the Wei Dynasty, what should they do?"

Cao Pi couldn't help but questioned.

"Even if Ma Teng and his son's Xiliang army conquered Yecheng, they would only be able to penetrate deep into the city alone, and they would not be able to challenge the strength of the Wei Dynasty in one fell swoop."

"When your two brothers succeed to the throne, they can raise their arms and call on all armies to come to serve the king."

"If Ma Teng and his son are wise, they will naturally retreat to Guanzhong obediently. If not, we will surround them and annihilate them in one fell swoop!"

The Bian family had already made a comprehensive plan.

Cao Pi's eyes gradually became excited, but he said:"The Queen Mother's plan is indeed a clever one, but if there is no benefit to Ma Teng and his son, how can they lead an army to Yecheng to help us? What about mutiny to seize the throne?"

"We are not allowed to give any benefits to Ma and his son. Of course they will not make our swords. Bian smiled coldly and said:"

We only need to promise Ma Teng that after your brother succeeds to the throne, he will cede Jingzhou and Bingzhou. Ma Teng is greedy for the benefits of these two states, so he will naturally send troops to help us mutiny.""

Cao Pi took a breath of cold air, but remained silent.

"Mother, Jingzhou was the territory won by the father in a bloody battle. If it were given to Ma Teng and he went eastward, Yangzhou would definitely not be protected, and half of the south of the Yangtze River would fall into the hands of the Ma family!"

Cao Zhi, who had remained silent, immediately raised objections.

"The barren land in the south will be lost if it is lost. There is nothing to regret. As long as the two river states and the hinterland of the Central Plains still belong to our Wei State, then it will be fine."

The Bian people said disapprovingly.

"But even if Jiangnan is no longer needed, Bingzhou borders Jizhou Youzhou. If it is ceded to Ma Teng, the Xiliang army can march out of Taihang at any time and threaten our Hebei hinterland. How can we give it away so easily!"

Cao Pi also questioned.

"The Huns are entrenched in Bingzhou, Zhang Yan's Black Mountain Army is in the Taihang Mountains, and there are Xianbei people in the north. It can be said that it's a mixed bag."

"What we control in Bingzhou is only a few counties. Even if it is ceded to Ma Teng, he cannot fully control it, let alone talk about going out to Taihang and threatening our two Youyan states."

Bian made another understatement and wiped out the bad consequences of ceding the state.

Cao Pi fell silent.

He asked Ma Teng, a foreign enemy, for help, and also ceded the territory that Cao Cao had worked hard to conquer. No matter what Bian said, he knew that he would do it for the world. People are shameless. Not to mention that after getting rid of Cao Yuan, he still had Cao Zhi as a competitor. Even if he could really ascend to the throne, he would not be willing to bear such an infamy. For a moment, Cao Pi hesitated

"Despite the infamy, you still have hope of ascending to the throne, regaining lost territory in the future, surpassing your father's achievements, and restoring your reputation."

"If we just sit there and wait for death, we, mother and son, will have no choice but to be slaughtered by Cao Yuan!"

Ms. Bian saw his concerns and pointed out the cruel facts coldly.

Cao Pi's figure froze, and all his hesitations and worries disappeared in an instant.

What reputation, what dignity, what the world's eyes, what history books The infamy... in the face of life and death, everything is worthless.

Cao Pi's eyes showed coldness, and he cupped his hands and said:"My son is not afraid of death, but he must not let his mother's life be in danger. He is willing to obey his mother's arrangements.""

"This is my son! Bian smiled with satisfaction and turned to Cao Zhi:"Zhi'er, what about you?" Cao

Zhi sighed bitterly:"Mother, besides betraying my father and leading the wolf into the house, do we really have no other way out?""

"No choice!"

Bian said coldly.

Cao Zhi pondered for a long time and sighed helplessly:"If this is really the case, then the child will have no choice but to obey the mother's orders."

Ms. Bian breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time,

Cao Zhi changed the subject and said,"Have you ever thought about it, even if Ma Teng could help us rebel, how could his Xiliang cavalry get past our heavy defense? Arriving at Yecheng unexpectedly? Cao

Pi looked stern and said anxiously:"Zijian's words are reasonable. My father has heavy troops stationed at Hangu Pass and on the east side of the river. It is impossible for Ma Teng's cavalry to cross these military and horse passes and fly to Yecheng.""

"Do you think I can’t think of this level? Bian smiled sarcastically and said calmly:"So, if we want the mutiny to be successful, in addition to Ma Teng's external force, we also need someone to act as an internal coordinator to help Ma Teng's army successfully reach Yecheng?""

Internal response?

Cao Pi and Cao Zhi looked at each other, and their eyes fell into confusion again.

"After the mother-in-law, the clan members all supported Cao Yuan as the crown prince, and the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty were all close to Cao Yuan. Who would act as an internal agent and help us rebel?"

Cao Pi asked with a grimace.

"Xun Yu!"

Ms. Bian said a name with a confident sneer.

"Xun Yu, when he first assisted your father, he wanted to use your father's power to help the Han Dynasty."

"After the death of the Han Emperor, Xun Yu tried his best to ask your father to establish another Liu family emperor, but your father refused."

"Later, the Han Dynasty fell and your father ascended the throne. I expected that Xun Yu must have been very grudge against your father and had long been dissatisfied."

"If we promise him that when things are done, we will choose a member of the Liu clan to be the emperor and reestablish the Han Dynasty, we expect that Xun Yu will be moved and be used by us!"

Ms. Bian spoke eloquently and expressed her wishful thinking.
