Mi Han

Chapter 261 Calling the Tiger to Battle Today's Harvest

After reading the contents of the letter, Mi Yang asked Ma Liang's envoy to leave first.

But Wang Hong saw that Mi Yang had a heavy look on his face after reading the letter. Out of the mood to solve the Lord's worries and problems, Wang Hong asked Mi Yang what happened.

Wang Hong can be regarded as his first confidant, but facing Wang Hong's inquiry, Mi Yang did not tell him the truth.

This is a big matter, and now Ma Liang's worries in the letter are just speculation.

Seeing that Mi Yang ignored his question, Wang Hong shut his mouth tactfully.

Since Mi Yang didn't want to talk, he naturally couldn't ask any more.

But Wang Hong saw that Mi Yang was no longer interested in discussing affairs, so he slowly retreated from the lobby.

When Wang Hong retreated, only Mi Yang was left in the hall.

Under the influence of Ma Liang's letter, Mi Yang felt a little irritable at this moment.

Mi Yang kept pacing in the lobby.

According to Ma Liang's ability and personality, since he would write this letter to himself, he must have discovered something from his daily relationship with Guan Yu.

At present, Mi Yang's status is that besides Guan Yu, in the northern border of the Han Dynasty, he is the general with the highest status and power.

If Guan Yu's health is really as bad as Ma Liang's letter guessed, then Ma Liang wrote this letter to Mi Yang today to prepare for a rainy day.

Moreover, apart from Mi Yang's official status, Mi Yang is also Guan Yu's son-in-law and Guan Yu's former official in his personal capacity.

In this case, the relationship between Mi Yang and Guan Yu is very close.

Wanting to come to Ma Liang to write a letter to tell him about this, apart from taking precautions, Ma Liang wanted him to use his close relationship with Guan Yu to persuade Guan Yu more.

It's just that despite being reminded by Ma Liang's letter, there are not many things Mi Yang can do next.

Because Ma Liang only speculated about Guan Yu's physical condition in the letter, he was not sure whether Guan Yu's current condition was serious or mild.

The current Mi Yang is not the son of the former Nanjun prefect. With his current status, every move he makes will cause quite a stir.

Especially now that one hundred thousand Wei troops are in Nanyang County!
In the face of the enemy, the morale of the army is the most important.

Without being sure about Guan Yu's physical condition, the most Mi Yang could do was to write a letter of condolences to Guan Yu as an official or son-in-law.

And without the order of Liu Bei or Guan Yu, Mi Yang could not leave the jurisdiction.

But if he wrote a letter of condolence to Guan Yu, Mi Yang felt that it would not have any effect.

Mi Yang is quite familiar with Guan Yu's character.

With Guan Yu's single-mindedness for the country and his proud character, unless he really realizes that his body is no longer able to fight, otherwise he will not easily retreat.

But when it does get there, it's too late.

This dilemma made Mi Yang pace faster and faster.

The situation he is facing now has never been recorded in the history books, so Mi Yang can't find reference answers from the experience in history.

Now Mi Yang can only rely on his quick wit.

While pacing non-stop, Mi Yang glanced at the emperor's edict that had just been delivered on his seat.

The authorities are obsessed, the authorities are obsessed!

The second master is the second master after all, isn't there still an uncle.

After realizing this, Mi Yang immediately returned to his seat and sat down, then quickly unfolded the silk script and wrote a secret performance.

After writing the secret performance, Mi Yang summoned a messenger and asked him to quickly send the secret performance to Hanzhong.

After doing this, Mi Yang beat the drums to attract a group of Han generals.

Although there are limited things he can do at present, it is better than doing nothing.

During this period of time, because of Mi Yang and Guan Yu's plan, coupled with the emperor's orders, Mi Yang has been deploying troops around Wudang County, focusing on defense.

But now that the situation may change, Mi Yang must change the battle plan.

If you don't keep it, Champion Hou is going to fight in Champion County!

In November of the first year of Zhangwu in the Han Dynasty, a month had passed since Guan Yu's army surrounded Fancheng.

After the month entered November, the temperature in all parts of Jingzhou dropped sharply.

The atmosphere of cold winter has gradually permeated the entire land of Jingzhou.

And in this month, Cao Pi, the emperor of Cao Wei, finally waited for Zhang Liao, the general he had been thinking about in Wancheng.

When Cao Cao was alive, there was a rumor in Cao Wei's army that "five good generals".

This statement praises the five generals with different surnames who followed Cao Cao to fight everywhere and made great achievements in battle.

In all fairness, in terms of military exploits alone, some of these five generals with different surnames are superior to Cao Ren in military exploits, and Xiahou Dun can't even compare with them.

Just because they have different surnames, the identities and status of these five generals are far from being comparable to those of the generals of the Cao family and the Xiahou family.

These five prestigious generals with different surnames have either died or rebelled in the past two years, leaving only Zhang Liao and Zhang He.

With the death of the two clan generals Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren, there is no doubt that Zhang Liao is currently No. 1 in the Cao Wei military in terms of military exploits and prestige.

Because of his great military exploits, Zhang Liao was already General Zhengdong when Cao Cao was alive.

After Cao Pi succeeded to the throne, Cao Pi rewarded Zhang Liao even more generously.

After Cao Cao withdrew from Hanshui, Zhang Liao was not allowed to return to Hefei.

He handed over the important task of guarding Hefei to Xiahou Dun, and Cao Cao asked Zhang Liao to lead the army to garrison Chenjun.

Perhaps at that time Cao Cao had anticipated that his time would not be long, so he let Zhang Liao lead the army to garrison the Central Plains, laying a solid foundation for stabilizing the Central Plains when Cao Pi took over.

When Cao Pi came to the throne of Wei Wang, Zhang Liao was transferred to the former general, and Cao Pi entrusted his brother Zhang Xun and his son Liehou.

At the same time, Cao Pi gave Zhang Liao as many as a thousand pieces of silk and as many as ten thousand bushes of grain.

Soon, after Xia Houdun died of illness, Cao Pi entered Zhang Liao and made him the Marquis of the capital.

Cao Pi also personally gave his mother a car to show his honor and favor, and sent soldiers and horses to take his family to the place where he was stationed.

He also sent guides to post notices in various places in advance, announcing that Zhang Liao's family members were coming, and guiding everyone to go out to welcome them.

The officers and officials of Zhang Liao's "supervised armies" lined up on both sides of the road to greet Zhang Liao's family.

No doubt this is a very honorable thing.

After Cao Pi proclaimed himself emperor, he granted Zhang Liao the title of Marquis of Jinyang, adding one thousand households to the former [-] households.

Cao Pi personally summoned Zhang Liao to pay homage to the Luoyang Imperial Palace. Cao Pi and Zhang Liao met in the Jianshi Hall and asked him about the situation when he broke Wu in the past.

After Zhang Liao said it, Cao Pi sighed to the left and right: "It's like the ancient Zhaohu."

So Cao Pi ordered to build a house for Zhang Liao and a palace for his mother.

A group of infantry who followed Zhang Liao to break through the Wu army's line and headed straight for Sun Quan's banner and temporarily recruited were all sealed off as tigers.

It can be said that Cao Pi spared no effort in rewarding Zhang Liao.

There is a big difference between Cao Pi and Cao Cao in the degree of trust in generals with different surnames.

And the most important thing is that Zhang Liao's favor and favor continued to increase after Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren's two clan generals died one after another.

This also means that invisibly, Cao Wei's military structure is undergoing a far-reaching reshuffle.

Zhang Liao's ability and military achievements are obvious to all Cao and Wei. If Zhang Liao's surname is Cao, he must be the first general of Wei.

When Zhang Liao arrived in Wancheng, Cao Pi showed great favor to Zhang Liao as always.

Cao Pi personally took the emperor's Yujia, and asked Zhang Liao, who had arrived in Wancheng, to ride with him and enter Wancheng.

While entering Wancheng, Cao Pi also asked the audience to stand outside the emperor's car, and read aloud his new round of rewards to Zhang Liao along the way.

"Jin Zhang Liao became the general of Wei, and added [-] households in the Marquis of Jinyang, bringing the total to [-] households!"

No matter how far Cao Pi's emperor's car drove, how far the voice of the audience could be conveyed.

The people of Wancheng kneeling on both sides of the street and the ministers of Cao Wei, after seeing Cao Pi showing such favor to Zhang Liao, showed envy on their faces.

After today, Zhang Liao's status as the No. 1 minister with a foreign surname is beyond doubt.

And Zhang Liao also expressed sincerity and fear in the face of Cao Pi's great favor.

But Cao Pi, who is proficient in the power of the emperor, favored Zhang Liao so much, not only because he really admired Zhang Liao, but also because he asked Zhang Liao for something.

When Cao Pi and Zhang Liao came to the lobby of the Cheqi General's Mansion in Wancheng, a group of Cao Wei ministers lined up on both sides, and Cao Pi didn't talk too much nonsense.

He directly drew out the Emperor's Sword and pointed to the location of Wudang on the map hanging behind him.

Cao Pi drew a circle around where Wudang was with his sharp sword point, as if marking someone, then he turned to look at Zhang Liao and said:
"How many troops does Zhang Qing need to defeat the thieves for me!"

Cao Pi's words revealed a deep hatred for Mi Yang.

Not long ago, Cao Pi got the news that Mi Yang suddenly led an army of tens of thousands from Wudang, marching towards Champion County swaggeringly.

Before Mi Yang led the army to garrison in Wudang County, Cao Pi could still follow Jia Xu's suggestion and temporarily turn a blind eye to Mi Yang.

Now Mi Yang dared to take the initiative to lead the army out to die. With more and more soldiers and horses gathering in the Great Wei Dynasty, Cao Pi could no longer hide his hatred for Mi Yang in his heart.

For this enemy who put his face on the ground and stomped on the ground, Cao Pi felt that if he tolerated it any longer, he would not even be ashamed to get the temple name of his ancestor in the future.

So on the first day Zhang Liao arrived, Cao Pi couldn't wait to ask Zhang Liao how many troops he needed to defeat Mi Yang.

In Cao Pi's mind, Zhang Liao has this ability, all he has to do is to cooperate as much as possible to let Zhang Liao maximize his ability.

After hearing Cao Pi's inquiry, the resolute Zhang Liao didn't hesitate to face Cao Pi's hopeful eyes.

Zhang Liao bowed to Cao Pi and said:

"The morale of the bandit army is at its peak. If you want to defeat it, you need [-] Chinese troops."

Long before Zhang Liao arrived in Wancheng, he knew that the current army in Mi Yang's hands was no more than [-], so Zhang Liao gave the number of troops he needed in a practical way.

The number of soldiers and horses Zhang Liao wanted was not many, but the attributes of the soldiers and horses he wanted were a bit intriguing.

After Zhang Liao truthfully stated his request, not only Cao Pi narrowed his eyes, but also all the Cao Wei ministers present looked sideways.

The old turtle Jia Xu even closed his eyes directly, pretending that he didn't hear what Zhang Liao said just now.

Zhang Liao really dared to ask for it.

The prototype of the Great Wei Zhongjun is the pro-army of Wei Wudi Cao Cao. For decades, the Great Wei Zhongjun followed Cao Cao in the southern and northern expeditions and made great military exploits.

In the entire land of Huaxia, the Great Wei Zhongjun can be said to be one of the most elite troops in the world.

Numerous honors, countless military exploits, and Cao Cao's original intention to establish this Chinese army make the status of the Great Wei Zhongjun very special.

The Great Wei Zhongjun is the Dinghai Shenzhen of the Wei State.

It is not that there are no ministers who have commanded part of the Chinese army, but those ministers are all from the surnames Cao and Xiahou.

Now Zhang Liao asked Cao Pi for the command of the [-] Chinese Army as soon as he came. This move was very bold and sensitive.

But in the face of Zhang Liao's begging, Cao Pi's eyes were fixed, and a smile appeared on his face immediately.

With this kind of courage, he is the Zhaohu of his great Wei, and with this kind of courage, it is possible to defeat Mi Yang.

Cao Pi's degree of trust in different surnames is completely different from that of Cao Cao.

Since he wanted to use Zhang Liao to defeat Mi Yang's troops today, of course he had to meet all of Zhang Liao's conditions.

Cao Pi swung his sword into its sheath, and he said to Zhang Liao in front of all civil and military ministers:
"Okay, I promise you!"

When Cao Pi's golden words came out, all the ministers present showed surprise on their faces.

The emperor actually gave it!

But after Cao Pi finished speaking, he promised Zhang Liao: "If you can come back victorious, the Cheqi General's Mansion under my feet will be renamed General Wei's Mansion."

Cao Pi's words caused Zhang Liao, who was still calm just now, to raise his head, and he looked at Cao Pi with some disbelief.

Obviously Cao Pi's words touched Zhang Liao deeply, and made him, a veteran who had experienced countless lives and deaths, unable to maintain his composure.

The chariot and cavalry general where Cao Wei Junchen is currently is owned by Cao Ren.

When Cao Ren was alive as a chariot general, he was the super minister of the frontiers who supervised the military forces of Jing, Yi, and Yang.

And Cao Pi said that if Zhang Liao wins, he will give him the chariot general's mansion. Since the mansion is given to Zhang Liao, it is natural to keep him in Wancheng.

Thinking deeper about this move of Cao Pi, it is obviously a signal that Zhang Liao will be the governor of Jingzhou's military.

In the history of Cao Wei, there has never been a precedent for generals with different surnames who essentially supervised one side's military affairs.

So when Cao Pi released this signal, even Zhang Liao couldn't calm down, let alone the other ministers present.

At this moment, the ministers present realized that with the death of Cao Ren and Xiahou Dun, and the growing power of Liu Bei in the south, the political situation of Cao Wei was about to undergo a drastic change.

Cao's father and son are both pragmatists.

Facing the temptation thrown by Cao Pi, Zhang Liao bowed excitedly to Cao Pi:

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will die!"

What happened in Wancheng has not yet reached Fancheng.

The [-] cavalry troops of the Wei army wandering along the river outside Fancheng continued their usual tasks as before.

Before Cao Tai led more than ten thousand cavalry troops to harass the Han army's grain road, it caused a lot of trouble for the Han army.

The helplessness of the infantry of the Han army in the face of the harassment of the cavalry of the Wei army has become a joke that tens of thousands of the cavalry of the Wei army have been talking about some time ago.

Seeing the previous victories and victories, the high morale of the Han army was exhausted under their harassment, and they were extremely embarrassed. This undoubtedly made the tens of thousands of cavalry troops of the Wei army breathe a sigh of relief.

Even Cao Tai, who wanted to avenge his father, felt that the resentment that had accumulated in his heart for the past few days had dissipated a lot.

The enemy is the Han army led by Guan Yu who is Megatron China!
In a sense, Cao Tai believed that this could be regarded as a small victory over the Han army.

So when Cao Tai sent the news to Cao Pi, Cao Pi felt very relieved.

After venting his anger, Cao Pi, who was in a good mood, immediately dispatched another [-] cavalry troops to the south to be led by Cao Tai.

Cao Pi's idea is very simple. Since this method is effective, it is natural to increase the bargaining chip and continue to use it.

Today, when some of the cavalry troops of the Wei army were patrolling the banks of the Han River as usual, the Han warships that appeared on the Han River made them howl with excitement.

They think today is another day of harvest.

But today is a good day for harvesting, and it is not certain which party will harvest.

The joint battle between the traverser and the world's famous generals will start today!
