Mi Han

Chapter 451
After feeling uneasy, Wu Yi began to quickly weigh the pros and cons in his heart.

In fact, from personal experience, Wu Yi is not a pure minister like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

This is not the first time Wu Yi has done such a thing of betrayal, otherwise Liu Bei would have beaten Chengdu so easily back then.

This is also the biggest reason why Cao Hong would still write this letter to Wu Yi before the case of Cao Ren.

Wu Yi has the distinctive style of the children of the world - knowing the current affairs.

Wu Yi's style can be clearly reflected from the fight with Mi Yang at the beginning.

But just because Wu Yi likes to know current affairs well, it doesn't mean he doesn't even know how to analyze basic interests.

Did Cao Hong think that Liangzhou was like Cao Wei, where one army commander held all the power?
Under Mi Yang's military system reform, he has basically eliminated the occurrence of the following situations in terms of system.

Under such circumstances, even if Wu Yi wanted to surrender, he had no choice.

What's more, don't look at how dangerous the situation in Liangzhou is in what Cao Hongxin said, but Wu Yi knows that the current situation in Liangzhou is critical, but it's not yet time to overthrow.

Before the situation was completely clear, Wu Yi would not be able to categorically abandon the honorary status he had obtained among the big men.

After quickly weighing the pros and cons in his mind, Wu Yi had already made a decision in his mind.

But what Wu Yi said afterwards made Ren Xiang quite satisfied.

"The envoy has come from afar, why not go down and rest first.

I will think more about the battle that Cao Hussar said. "

Wu Yi is a scheming person. When he was reading Cao Hong's letter just now, although his mood fluctuated greatly, his expression was normal.

In addition to Cao Hongxin's content, only Wu Yi and Ren Xiang knew about it at the moment.

Among the people present, it cannot be said that they are not curious about the letter, but without knowing the contents of the letter, it is far from being suspicious of Wu Yi.

After all, Wu Yi had already said that Cao Hong's letter was a "declaration of war" against him. It is also very common for the two armies to send envoys to write letters to declare war on the envoys of the other army.

After hearing Wu Yi's words, Ren Xiang would naturally feel happy.

Because he knew all the inside information, he heard the meaning of consideration from Wu Yi's mouth.

If it wasn't intentional, why bother to conceal the true content of this letter in front of the generals.

If it wasn't intentional, why bother to honor Cao Hong as Cao Hussar?

We must know that at present, due to the natural hostility between the Han and Wei dynasties, the ministers of the two parties do not recognize the legitimacy of the other side.

Ren Xiang, who was happy, of course did not resist Wu Yi's arrangement.

After Ren Xiang left the big tent, Wu Yi dissolved the meeting.

When the generals left, Wu Yi only left his younger brother Wu Ban behind.

After only Wu Yi and Wu Ban were left in the big tent, Wu Yi gave the letter from Cao Hong to Wu Ban to read.

Wu Ban originally thought that the content of this letter was just like what his brother said, it was a letter declaring war.

But when he read the contents of the letter, panic immediately appeared on his face.

Subconsciously, Wu Ban persuaded Wu Yi, "Brother, don't be fooled by Cao Hong's bastard!"

"Devotion to the matter of surrender, absolutely not!"

Although Wu Ban was dissatisfied with Mi Yang's actions at the beginning, he thought Mi Yang was too domineering.

But in the final analysis, Wu Ban's dissatisfaction with Mi Yang at the beginning was more because he did not want the power of the Wu family in Liangzhou to be cut. Wu Ban was not dissatisfied with the big man and Liu Bei.

What's more, after Mi Yang came to power completely, he didn't kill Wu's family. Instead, he reused them from time to time. In the past days, Wu Ban also gradually realized the power of Mi Yang's methods.

So it is true that Wu Ban is dissatisfied with Mi Yang, but he has no intention of betraying Mi Yang in his heart.

Seeing Wu Ban's first reaction after seeing the contents of the letter was the same, and Wu Yi's resentment surged again.

It seems that Cao Hong looked down on him, even close relatives and confidants like Wu Ban, let alone Cao Hong as an outsider?
Wu Yi's entire face was pulled down, and he scolded Wu Ban: "What are you talking nonsense, I am an ungrateful person."

Wu Yi first expressed his attitude clearly, and then he asked Wu Bandao: "Although I will not surrender to Wei, but if Fa Miao knows what happened today, he will inevitably feel suspicious."

The reason why Wu Yi and Wu Ban were unwilling to betray Mi Yang, apart from the above reasons, was also because Fa Miao was currently the deputy general of Yangping Pass.

After Mi Yang led his army to leave Nanzheng, he originally planned to let Fa Miao stay in Nanzheng.

But when Mi Yang heard that Ma Chao led his army into Wudu, he changed his mind and ordered Fa Miao to be the deputy general of Yangping Pass.

Wu Yi didn't know whether Mi Yang's sudden appointment of Fa Miao as the deputy general of Yangping Pass had any intention of guarding against himself.

Judging from the current situation in Yangping Pass, as long as Fa Miao is there, Wu Yi will not be able to do anything that harms Mi Yang's interests.

The most important thing is that he can hide what happened today from other people. Once Fa Miao finds out, Fa Miao may become suspicious.

That's why Wu Yi wanted to stay with Wu Ban and discuss this matter together.

Facing Wu Yi's inquiry, Wu Ban suddenly realized the seriousness of the matter.

Since the incident with Deng Xian, Fa Miao has developed a rift with them, which makes it difficult for Fa Miao to choose to trust Wu Yi naturally.

Just when Wu Yi and Wu Ban brothers were thinking hard about how to make Fa Miao trust them, someone from outside the tent reported that Fa Miao was leading people to the main tent.

The arrival of Fa Miao made Wu Yi and Wu Ban tense up.

Here come the sunflowers.

Fa Miao just returned to the barracks.

After Fa Miao was sent to Yangping Pass by Mi Yang, in order to ensure the safety of Yangping Pass, he has been inspecting the city defense inside and outside Yangping Pass with his personal followers for half a month.

Everyday he goes out at sunrise and returns at sunset, and today is no exception.

Therefore, Fa Miao was not present during the discussion of the generals just now.

But when he just returned to the barracks, a confidant who had just participated in the discussion told Fa Miao about Cao Hong's envoy's visit.

Fa Miao felt something was wrong immediately after hearing this incident.

If it was true that Cao Hong's letter was just a declaration of war as his cronies said, and Wu Yi could let Ren Xiang go after accepting the letter of declaration of war, why would he leave Ren Xiang in the camp temporarily?

This unreasonable point made Fa Miao suspicious of Wu Yi.

So Fa Miao, before he had time to rest, immediately rushed towards Wu Yi's big tent with a group of cronies.

When Fa Miao arrived outside Wu Yi's big tent, he was surprised to find that Wu Yi was waiting for him outside the tent earlier.

It seems that Wu Yi knew the news of his arrival in advance.

But this is also normal. In the army, who doesn't have a few cronies?

At this time, the sky was completely dark, and the full moon was hanging high above the dark sky. The bright moonlight was passing through thousands of miles away, shining on the ground under Wu Yi's feet.

The full moon was like a disk, and the bright moonlight just formed a circle at Wu Yi's feet at this moment.

But before meeting Fa Miao, Wu Yi kept pacing in the same place because of the restlessness in his heart.

But what he didn't realize was that no matter how he paced in place, he never took a step out of the circle under his feet.

Painting the ground as a prison is the true portrayal of Wu Yi's heart at the moment.

Fa Miao's arrival was soon noticed by Wu Yi. Seeing the generals in charge of military power following behind Fa Miao, Wu Yi forced a smile on his face.

Why did he meet Fa Miao outside the tent? Isn't it to prevent Fa Miao from worrying?
Throughout the ages, there have been countless cases of ambushes and killings in tents.

After Fa Miao came a few steps in front of him, Wu Yi took the initiative to invite Fa Miao and said: "Don't drive, do you have time to go for a walk with me?"

Facing Wu Yi's invitation, Fa Miao thought for a while and agreed to him.

Surrounded by his cronies, as long as he is outside the tent, he is not afraid of Wu Yi having unruly thoughts.

Moreover, Wu Yi wanted to be alone with him, presumably because he had something important to discuss with him in private.

Fa Miao quickly walked around the place where Wu Yi stood shoulder to shoulder, and then followed Wu Yi's pace, and walked together in the vast open space outside the tent.

"The content of Cao Hong's letter today is not to declare war, but to lure me to surrender.

The reason why I didn't tell the generals the truth in public was because I didn't want to arouse suspicion for no reason. "

Before taking a few steps, Wu Yi told Fa Miao the truth.

Moreover, he calmly took Cao Hong's letter out of his pocket and handed it to Fa Miao to read.

After listening to Wu Yi's words and seeing the contents of the letter, Fa Miao narrowed his eyes.

If the guess in his heart is true, Fa Miao will not be too shocked, but this matter also makes him feel very troublesome.

The tricky thing is Wu Yi's true attitude.

Seeing that Fa Miao's pace paused slightly, Wu Yi immediately continued to say:

"I have neither rebellion nor the ability to rebel. Cao Hong doesn't know this, but you should be very clear."

Wu Yi knew that if it was just an explanation in pale words, it would be difficult for Fa Miao to believe his words given his past.

But if the objective helplessness is clearly stated, then Fa Miao will naturally believe it.

Sure enough, after listening to Wu Yi's words, Fa Miao caught up with Wu Yi again.

After talking about his attitude, Wu Yi continued as if talking to himself:
"People are not sages and sages, so they can do nothing, this is the truth that the world knows.

But people in the world will find it difficult to have full trust in him because of what others have done, and I know this very well in my heart.

Back then in Nanzheng, I was indeed dissatisfied with Zhou Mu's methods, but that day on the high platform of the military parade, I had already surrendered to Zhou Mu, otherwise, how could Zhou Mu give me the important task of guarding Yangping Pass?

Cao Hong's letter may be sincerely persuading him to surrender, but it may also be a tactic of alienation. Ma Mengqi was defeated by this tactic back then, so please don't have any doubts about me on this point.

Disagreement between the principal and the deputy in the army has always been a taboo for military strategists. "

Wu Yi's tone was very sincere, he really didn't want Fa Miao to doubt him because of this.

However, Fa Miao did not respond to Wu Yi's words.

Seeing that Fa Miao's affirmative response was delayed, Wu Yi was a little anxious.

He turned to look at Fa Miao who was beside him, and he saw that Fa Miao was twisting his eyes and contemplating at the moment.

"Don't drive, you still don't want to believe me after all?"

Wu Yi's urgent question awakened Fa Miao who was in deep thought.

After seeing the eager look on Wu Yi's face, Fa Miao gave his answer with a smile:
"Zhou Mu believes in you, so I naturally believe in you too."

Fa Miao is really a qualified sunflower.

After hearing Fa Miao's affirmative answer, Wu Yi immediately put down a big stone in his heart.

As long as Fa Miao doesn't suspect him, the opinions of other people in the army are not that important.

Wu Yi, who was relieved, thought of sending someone to send Ren Xiang away as soon as possible.

And Fa Miao seemed to see his thoughts.

Fa Miao whispered to Wu Yi, "But what if I want the general to surrender?"

After hearing Fa Miao's words, Wu Yi immediately looked at Fa Miao with wide eyes.

But soon he realized that Fa Miao didn't want him to surrender, but a false surrender.

After understanding what Fa Miao meant, Wu Yi soon began to think about the possibility of this strategy.

After thinking about it, Wu Yi shook his head at Fa Miao.

"The case of Mencius' cutting off his hair and ambitions came before. Cao Hong will not trust me again."

After hearing Wu Yi's judgment, Fa Miao was not disappointed, on the contrary, the smile on his face grew stronger.

"During the Battle of Chibi that year, Jiangdong general Huang Gai feigned surrender to Cao Cao with a trick of bitterness, thus causing Cao's army to be defeated.

That battle made Cao Cao dare not go south for several years. Compared with the Battle of Xicheng, which battle taught the Wei army a deeper lesson?
But when Mencius cut his hair and cut his will, Cao Jun still believed in his surrender. Why is this? "

"The teacher who remembers the past is the teacher of the future. Many people remember this sentence, but if everyone can do it, how can the world be so chaotic?"

"In my opinion, when Cao Hong intended to write this letter to the general, he already had expectations for the general's surrender.

Expectation is what you want, and how sensible will a person who wants something in his heart be? "

At this moment, Fa Miao's thinking was unprecedentedly clear.

Fa Miao often heard a sentence from Mi Yang:

"People in the world often say that history is a mirror, but the biggest lesson that history books can teach the world is that the world often doesn't believe those lessons."

Mi Yang's words can be described as a perfect portrayal in the present.

What Fa Miao didn't know was that the reason why Mi Yang said this sentence was that he was familiar with the history of the Three Kingdoms in his previous life.

In history, even with the lesson of Chibi's defeat, there were often successful cases of Soochow's trick-or-treating surrender later on.

The most famous one is that Zhou Bing made money continuously to make money against Cao Xiu, but apart from this case, there are many other successful cases of false surrender.

Even Sun Quan was once severely tricked by the Gongsun family in Liaodong.

Cao Xiu, Sun Quan and other people who were deceived were not fools, but they were still tricked because they wanted something in their hearts.

The greater the desire in the heart, the lower the corresponding rational judgment. This is human nature.

After listening to Fa Miao's analysis, Wu Yi felt that what Fa Miao said was very reasonable.

And Fa Miao's next sentence directly made Wu Yi make up his mind.

"The pass is in the hands of our army. Regardless of whether the surrender is successful or not, our army will remain invincible. Why don't the general give it a try?"

Seeing that Fa Miao had already said that, and Wu Yi was not an indecisive person, he immediately responded:
"good."

His bad reputation attracted Cao Hong's desire to persuade him to surrender.

But since the reputation is not good, is this still missing?
After Wu Yi agreed to himself, Fa Miao showed respect for Wu Yi:

"In Cao Hong's letter, he persuaded the general with the affection of his hometown. The general can not miss the heart of returning to his hometown, but dedicate his life to the great man. The general is highly righteous and respectful.

Miao has a saying from the state pastor that he wants to pass it on to the general. "

"There is no need for hometowns to bury bones, and there are no green mountains in life!"

The last sentence Fa Miao said made Wu Yi feel his blood surging after hearing it.

He looked up at the thousands of miles of green hills surrounding Yangping Pass, and the pride in his heart grew stronger.

He is from the Central Plains, isn't Mi Yang?

Fa Miao's hometown is not in Yizhou either.

But as long as there is a common belief in the heart, even if you die in the green hills in the end, as long as you are accompanied by the corpses of your comrades, then it is not a kind of regret!

Based on these words, he is sure to screw Cao Hong!
