Mi Han

Chapter 496
The change in Mi Yang's mood quickly attracted the attention of everyone in the hall.

But everyone didn't know what Mi Yang was thinking, they only thought that Mi Yang frowned deeply because of Xiao Mi Cheng's performance.

The current status and prestige of Mi Yang is extraordinary. When he is kind, it is easy to give people the feeling of spring breeze.

But if his expression is serious, then the originally hidden aura around him will burst out quietly, causing the people in the hall not to dare to vomit.

The serious atmosphere even affected Xiao Mi Cheng.

The ground in the hall is paved with solid wood, which is very hard. Even if there is a layer of map on the ground as a buffer, the raw materials are scarce in this world, and the map is really not soft.

And after Xiao Micheng fell to the ground, due to the pain from his body, he wanted to cry bitterly, but after seeing Mi Yang's face, he cried a few times in a daze, and then silently stopped crying.

At this moment, there were only occasional sobs from Xiao Mi Cheng uncontrollably, quietly ringing in the lobby.

Seeing this, Fa Miao and the others looked at each other in blank dismay. Although they were Mi Yang's confidantes, it seemed that under the current situation, it was not easy to intervene in Mi Yang's housework.

Fortunately, Guan Yan was still in the hall.

At this time, Guan Yan also thought that Mi Yang was upset by Xiao Mi Cheng's performance, so she immediately came to Xiao Mi Cheng and hugged him into her arms, and then said to Mi Yang:

"You scared Cheng'er."

Guan Yan's tone contained the accusation that Mi Yang made a fuss over a molehill.

Others are afraid of the serious Mi Yang, who is eager to protect her son, and Guan Yan, who was considered a righteous daughter by Liu Bei just last year, is not afraid.

There are rumors in the ruling and opposition parties that Liu Bei intends to give Guan Yan a certain place as her food.

Guan Yan's reproach woke Mi Yang from his contemplation.

Mi Yang, whose thoughts drifted back from a certain major event, looked up and saw the expressions of everyone in the hall.

The embarrassment and restlessness of Fa Miao and others, the slight annoyance of Guan Yan and the shrinking of Xiao Micheng.

Seeing this scene, combined with Guan Yan's accusation just now, Mi Yang immediately understood that everyone misunderstood him.

In front of his family, Mi Yang didn't express his worries immediately.

He just showed a smile on his face, signaling Guan Yan to hand over the little Mi Cheng in his arms to him.

Although Guan Yan was annoyed by Mi Yang's actions just now, she subconsciously complied with Mi Yang's request.

After the chubby little Mi Cheng entered Mi Yang's arms, the smile on Mi Yang's face became even wider.

He stroked Xiao Micheng's head with his hands, trying to soothe his anxiety in this way.

Under Mi Yang's touch, little Mi Cheng really quickly forgot what happened just now, he immediately hugged Mi Yang's neck with his backhand, like a koala hanging on Mi Yang's body and refused to let go.

Xiao Micheng's intimacy made Mi Yang burst into laughter.

How could he blame Xiao Mi Cheng for his unintentional mistake just now?
What's more, maybe in the dark, Xiao Micheng also helped him a lot.

And the next move that Xiao Micheng made made Mi Yang's hard heart, which was used to seeing blood, melt directly.

After playing with Mi Yang's beard, little Mi Cheng struggled away from Mi Yang's arms as if thinking of something.

Then he pouted his diaper-wrapped buttocks, lay on the map in front of Mi Yang, and seemed to be scooping something up with his pink hands.

Not only did Mi Yang not expect this move by Xiao Micheng, even Fa Miao and the others were surprised.

It turned out that Xiao Micheng was still thinking about giving Mi Yang some soup to relieve the heat, and now he is squatting on the ground, wanting to do the thing of "forcibly submerging the water".

This is very naive, but it reveals Xiao Micheng's filial piety towards Mi Yang.

After seeing Xiao Micheng's performance, Mi Yang couldn't help laughing again, he reached out and hugged Xiao Micheng into his arms again to tease him.

This is the first time he has been a father in two lifetimes, but after he really became a father, he felt the joy of being a father.

Especially when the baby-sounding little Mi Cheng yelled the word "Daddy", the sense of satisfaction brought about by the blood connection is a joy that ordinary people can't imagine.

When everyone saw Mi Yang and Xiao Mi Cheng enjoying the family happiness, they all had smiles on their faces.

Among the people in the hall today, who has no heirs?

After teasing Xiao Micheng for a while, Mi Yang beckoned Guan Yan to come forward and let her take Xiao Micheng away from his arms.

When Guan Yan stepped forward to take little Mi Cheng away from Mi Yang's arms, she found that something was wrong with Mi Yang.

It's good that Mi Yang still has a smile on her face now, but Guan Yan, who is the person next to her pillow, knows Mi Yang very well. Under close observation, she noticed some abnormalities.

After realizing this, Guan Yan cast a worried look at Mi Yang.

Seeing this, Mi Yang just smiled and handed Xiao Micheng into Guan Yan's hands, and then said softly to Guan Yan: "It's okay, I'm here for my husband."

Mi Yang's words reassured Guan Yan suddenly.

So even though she still had something to ask in her heart, she still silently took Xiao Mi Cheng out of the hall.

But after stepping out of the hall, Guan Yan looked back at Mi Yang again.

Facing Guan Yan's turning back, Mi Yang calmly waved her hand, and only then did Guan Yan and Xiao Mi Cheng disappear outside the hall.

After Guan Yan and Xiao Mi Cheng disappeared, a firm belief emerged in Mi Yang's heart, and the smile on his face disappeared immediately.

This caught Fa Miao and the others by surprise.

Today's general is a bit abnormal.

But Fa Miao and the others soon knew why Mi Yang was abnormal today.

Mi Yang first looked at Lu Yi and asked, "When the rainy season came in previous years, did the Han River harm the people near Nanzheng?"

Lu Yi is in the administration of Liangzhou, and he was mainly responsible for the specific handling of Liangzhou's government affairs in the past, so it must be very clear to ask him about this matter.

Seeing that Mi Yang suddenly asked this matter that was completely irrelevant to the current war, Lu Yi couldn't help being a little dazed.

However, his rich experience in governance still allowed him to quickly answer Mi Yang: "During the rainy season in previous years, the Han River often overflowed and violated the people's fields."

After saying this sentence, Lu Yi immediately added another sentence:

"However, due to the strong dams along the Han River, such incidents are not too serious."

Lu Yi originally thought that his explanation would reassure Mi Yang, but after listening to Lu Yi's explanation, Mi Yang no longer concealed the worry in his heart, and directly expressed it on his face.

"There are dams for protection, and the Han River overflows from time to time. What if the dams are gone?"

Mi Yang spat out these words leisurely.

After hearing Mi Yang's words, everyone present turned pale with shock.

Because Mi Yang's words revealed a very serious matter, or if this happened, it would undoubtedly be a disaster for them!

It was the straightforward Wei Yan who spoke the fastest:
"The general means that Cao Zhen will burst the embankment and release the water, flooding Nanzheng?"

When asking this question, Wei Yan, who has always been bold, couldn't help being startled by his guess.

Mi Yang looked at Wei Yan, and nodded heavily at him.

Everyone didn't know why Mi Yang suddenly thought that Wei Jun would adopt a water attack strategy, but as Mi Yang, as long as he had guesses in this regard, everyone had to pay attention to this issue.

And because the consequences of this conjecture if it comes true are too serious, when everyone present is thinking, their breathing will inevitably become short of breath.

After a long silence, it was Zhoutai, who had been unknown until now, who broke the silence first.

Zhoutai joined Mi Yang after the Battle of Xiangfan, and after testing Zhoutai, Mi Yang felt that he was indeed a talented person, and he was not stingy about cultivating him.

When Mi Yang became the shepherd of Liangzhou, Zhoutai was promoted by him to the magistrate of Nanzheng County. As the "Sili Captain" of Liangzhou, Zhoutai's position in Liangzhou was already regarded as the core.

The reason why Zhoutai was the first to speak was because Zhoutai was from Nanyang, where there are abundant water systems. Zhoutai was no stranger to river overflow during the rainy season.

Zhoutai bowed to Mi Yang and said: "Nanzheng is located in the upper reaches of the Han River, and Baoshui flows through the territory. If the rebel army intentionally breaks the embankment, it may indeed pose a huge threat to Nanzheng."

"However, although Nanzheng is in a low-lying place, and more than [-] rebel troops are also located outside Nanzheng City, if the Han River bursts its embankment, wouldn't it be a situation where both sides will suffer?
Will the bandits really take such risks? "

Nanzheng has a radius of hundreds of miles, and it is all a plain. It's not that there is no mountain, but there must be no mountain that can accommodate more than [-] troops.

Under such circumstances, if the Han River broke its embankment, Nanzheng would be in danger, but where would the more than [-] Wei troops outside the city go?
At that time, the Han army in Nanzheng City may persist for a while because of the city's support, but the more than [-] northern landlubbers outside the city may have no way to survive.

Zhou Tai's confusion quickly aroused the sympathy of several people present. This is indeed a contradiction that Wei Jun is not easy to avoid.

It's just that compared to the relaxed look on everyone's face after hearing Zhou Tai's puzzlement, Mi Yang's expression is still heavy.

Mi Yang knew that if Wei Jun really wanted to attack by water, it was possible for them to do so while ensuring their own safety.

Throughout the ages, the strategy of water attack has been rarely used, but there are also some famous examples of water attack battles that have been handed down to the world.

From those battle examples, it can be concluded that there are roughly two methods of water attack in ancient times, one is the "soaking method" and the other is the "city rushing method".

Among these two methods, the soaking method can avoid the situation mentioned by Zhou Tai, and this method was usually used when Cao Cao was alive.

Zhou Tai and others didn't know the method of flooding, it's not that they hadn't heard of the battles of Cao Cao's flooding of Yecheng and flooding of Xiapi.

The reason is that the news in the current world is extremely blocked, and because of the poor traffic, not only Zhou Tai and others, but even other people, as long as they were not there at the time, how could they know the specific details of the Wei army's water attack at that time?

People in the world often only know the results, and the world will not know the specific details until the history books of this era are published.

As for the water attack battles that existed long ago in history, they are recorded in some history books, but for that reason, the current knowledge is in a closed state.

Even many famous people may not have read a few history books seriously in their life. They are more studying a scripture handed down by their families.

But Mi Yang, who is a time traveler, knows this clearly.

"If my prediction is correct, if Cao Zhenruo really wants to adopt the strategy of water attack, the next step is to defend against mountains and water."

The "defense" in Mi Yang's discourse refers to dikes and dams, which means that Wei Jun will build new dams in the upper reaches of the Han River to intercept the water source first, so as not to let the water of the Han River leak out.

"The next second step is to build a series of ditches and dikes around Nanzheng City, so as to draw the water of the Han River from the upstream into it and continuously store it."

"As for the third step"

Although Mi Yang didn't explain clearly what Wei Jun would do in the third step, everyone in the hall understood what Mi Yang hadn't finished saying.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the hall has become extremely dignified.

Although Mi Yang was analyzing Wei Jun's possible actions, his analysis fell into the ears of everyone, as if it had turned into a series of reminders.

Especially if Wei Jun really followed Mi Yang's analysis, then Zhou Tai's incomprehension, or reliance, would have been resolved invisibly.

Mi Yang looked at the serious expression on the faces of Fa Miao and others, and felt powerless for the first time in his heart.

Will Wei Jun attack by water?
Mi Yang doesn't know.

He just thought of this point like a blessing to his heart because of Xiao Micheng's unintentional loss.

The reason why Mi Yang didn't think about it before was because of his fixed thinking as a native of Ji Hanzhong.

Famous generals in the world always like to put themselves into the enemy's perspective to deduce what the enemy's next move will be, but this kind of substitution will still be affected by their own personality and even education.

The strategy of water attack has been rarely used throughout the ages.

One reason is that in order to achieve this, it is necessary to have absolute strength to suppress the defenders, and the other is the water attack strategy, which is a very vicious strategy.

Water attack is not fire attack, fire attack is usually targeted, but once the flood floods into the city, not only the defenders will suffer countless deaths and injuries, but also the people in the city will not be spared.

Regardless of the education received in the previous life or the current life, Mi Yang is not allowed to use this kind of strategy. Not only Mi Yang, but also Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang and other Ji Hanzhong people, how many people would think about this?
In history, Ji Han's entrepreneurial history is so difficult, and have you ever seen Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang use such a strategy? Could it be that Zhuge Liang's overall planning ability is not high, or is there a shortage of water in the south?

Probably because of doing something, not doing something.

However, even if it is speculated that Wei Jun may adopt the strategy of water attack, it is still just a conjecture of Mi Yang, and there is no other evidence to support it.

So the powerlessness in Mi Yang's heart just disappeared in a flash.

Mi Yang saw that Fa Miao and others were depressed because of his analysis, so he pretended to be relaxed and said: "Whether Cao Zhen used water attack is unknown, why should you worry too much about things that have not yet come?
My analysis just now is just to let you have a psychological preparation in advance, not to make you look like a loser. "

Mi Yang's words dispelled many worries in the hearts of Fa Miao and others.

They apologized to Mi Yang one after another, and wanted to cheer up again.

But there are always people present who are puzzled, such as Wei Yan.

"If Cao Zhen really acts as the general expected, what should we do?"

Wei Yan blurted out a question, which aroused the enthusiasm of everyone present, and almost lost it directly.

Fortunately, after listening to Wei Yan's words, Mi Yang laughed loudly and said:

"If Cao really wants to offend Tianhe, and he does such a vicious thing, it proves that all his actions are completely predictable.

Since the enemy's opportunity has been predicted first, why not be afraid of not being able to defeat the enemy?

Zong Hanshui has great power, how can he break the chess game in the lonely heart! "

Mi Yang's arrogance stems from his glorious resume without defeat since he joined the army, and from the bones of countless enemies who died under his flag.

So when he finished speaking, everyone present was infected by his arrogance, and they all got up and bowed heavily to Mi Yang who was sitting.

Looking at the crowd bowing down to him, Mi Yang thought of Liu Bei Zhuge Liang's entrustment to him, Guan Yan's reluctance to him just now, and the hundreds of thousands of souls who enshrined him as master.

Since the heart is fettered, it must be a tiger.

Hanshui, only Wei Jun can use it?
