Sima Yi saw through Zhuge Liang's false plan, why did he finally decide to withdraw?

As an empty city plan in the 36 plan, many friends are familiar with it. During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang lost his strategic location-the street pavilion. Wei General Sima Yi took the opportunity to introduce 6.5438+0.5 million Wei Jun into Xicheng. At this time, Zhuge Liang did not have a military commander around him, only a civilian. The number of soldiers is only about 3000. If we use thousands of people against thousands of people, we will lose. Zhuge Liang, who was extremely clever, told the soldiers to open the gate wide. Besides the old people, there are people dressed as soldiers in the city. Zhuge Liang's campaign ended in victory, and Sima Yi led an army of 6.5438+0.5 million to finally retreat. Some people say that Sima Yi was afraid of Zhuge Liang's plan, so he chose to withdraw.

Is Sima Yi really afraid of being caught in history? Actually, it's not like this. Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi were the best military strategists in the Three Kingdoms period. The two have been fighting, to outdo each other. Sima Yi, who has military talent, actually guessed Zhuge Liang's plan and chose to withdraw his troops for another reason.

As a strategist of Wei, Sima Yi naturally has a clear understanding of the national situation and his own situation. He deeply knows that it is certain that the army of 6.5438+0.5 million will March into the West City. At the same time, he knows his own value.

In the eyes of Cao Cao and Cao Pi, Sima Yi was actually a tool to destroy Shu. In the territory of Wei, many ministers, including the emperor, did not particularly trust themselves. If we break into Xicheng and kill Zhuge Liang, it means that the demise of Shu is close to success. Sima Yi at this time will be a big worry for everyone, including the emperor. Shu exists, and Zhuge Liang is alive to save his life.
