But he also knew that for the sake of Shu Han, he had to make this choice.
At this moment, a look of despair appeared on Sima Yi's face!
He had been cautious and patient his whole life, but this time, he still fell into Zhuge Liang's hands.
From the very beginning, he had fallen into Zhuge Liang's trap.
The purpose of letting Zhao Yun charge ahead and capture dozens of cities was to make Sima Yi anxious.
Haste makes waste, and given a golden opportunity, Sima Yi would certainly not let it slip by.

"Father, let me lead the troops to charge one more time!"
"Yes, General! We are willing to fight our way out!"
At this moment, Sima Yi had already closed his eyes; he knew there was no longer any chance.
However, just when Zhuge Liang thought the plan had succeeded, dark clouds suddenly filled the sky, and a drop of rain fell on Sima Yi's sword.
"Father, look! Look! It's raining...it's raining!"
