Cao Pi wanted to destroy Sun Wu and sighed, "If you want to separate the north from the south, it will be heaven!" What does this sentence mean?

Because for Cao Pi, the inevitable war of reunification between the North and the South could not be carried out because of the weather. That's why I made such a sigh. In desperation, he can only retreat with the army.

Cao Pi has always wanted to unify the north and the south. It's not a day or two since he wanted to attack Wu. Since the founding of the state of Wu, it has been attacked on a small scale.

Before this attack, xelloss had actually written a letter to prepare the big fleet to go south. Originally, I wanted to give Wu a heavy blow. Because the autumn wind in the Yangtze River is high, it is really not conducive to navigation, so I gave up.

But Cao Pi has always been obsessed with this. The next year, I was going to make another expedition to the south. Ministers expressed concern about his decision and discouraged him, thinking it was dangerous. Cao Pi was furious and punished the minister who dissuaded him. Because of the last weather, it was impossible to attack, so this time Cao Pi decided to leave late and attack Wu in June+10, 5438.

I didn't expect to fail this time, even because of the weather. It turned out to be this winter, extremely cold. The river is frozen. Xelloss's fleet could not move on the frozen river. So this time the battle of crossing the river failed again.

Wu was ready to fight, but Wei actually quit. Cao Pi was hit by this incident and died of illness soon after returning to China. I sighed like this before I died. Cao Pi's two large-scale crusades against Wu failed, and from then on, the scale of Wei-Wu cross-river opposition was formed.

Cao Pi's thought of the North-South United War has never been realized. Because of the weather, it failed twice. No wonder xelloss was so unwilling, saying it was providence.
