Mi Han

Chapter 501
Sitting on the stone barrier, Wei Yan took a piece of cloth covered with herbs from the guard and tied it to the wound on his arm.

At this moment, on the ground in front of Wei Yan, there was a piece of blood cloth with blood scabs that had just been replaced.

Not only Wei Yan's body was like this, but even the thousands of soldiers gathered around him all had freshly replaced wound cloths.

In the battle some time ago, in order to successfully break out of the encirclement, Wei Yan and his troops were brave enough to die.

The desperate style of play successfully allowed Wei Yan to lead his troops out of the encirclement, but it also succeeded in almost causing almost all of Wei Yan's soldiers to be injured.

Of course, most of the injuries suffered by the soldiers who could continue to follow Wei Yan were not serious, they were basically skin traumas, and there would be no problem in treating them with the herbs they carried with them.

As for those who were seriously injured, they had already stayed outside the south gate of Nanzheng City.

And this group of people accounted for more than half of Wei Yan's troops, which shows how fierce the battle was.

But fortunately, the final result was good, which is the only comfort in Wei Yan's heart at the moment.

After re-binding the cloth covered with herbs, Wei Yan stretched his arm a little and found that his injury was no longer serious.

At least it won't affect him going into battle to kill the enemy.

Thinking of this, Wei Yan raised the long sword that was put aside, and quickly came to Zhoutai.

Zhou Taiben was inspecting the injuries of several soldiers. He came from a good family and had learned some simple medical skills when he was young.

But Zhou Tai, who was squatting on the ground to check his injuries, soon found a shadow over his head, presumably there was a strong man blocking the sunlight above his head.

Zhou Tai looked up and found that it was Wei Yan.

Zhou Tai also noticed that at this moment, Wei Yan was looking at him with piercing eyes.

Zhou Tai, who knew why Wei Yan was like this, didn't want to talk to Wei Yan.

Similar things happened yesterday, even the day before yesterday.

But when Wei Yan saw that Zhou Tai ignored him, he squinted his eyes, and directly pulled away the soldier Zhou Tai was treating, and then squatted directly opposite Zhou Tai, just looking at Zhou Tai.

In this way, Zhoutai could no longer avoid the eagerness in Wei Yan's eyes.

Zhou Tai couldn't help sighing, and asked, "General Zhenbei, what's the reason?"

Why?

"Why do you ask knowingly?"

Wei Yan's voice was a little hoarse, but he spoke with certainty.

After saying this, Wei Yan saw that Zhoutai had no intention of answering the words, so Wei Yan directly pointed out his intentions:

"The time has come to untie the bag given by the general."

This is why Wei Yan came here.

But after hearing Wei Yan's intentions, Zhou Tai flatly vetoed it: "There are still a few days before the half-month period, and it's not time to open the general's bag."

Zhou Tai's veto made Wei Yan angry.

He stood up and pointed down, "Get up and have a look."

At Wei Yan's request, Zhou Tai really stood up.

Nearly half a month ago, in order to prevent Wei Jun from seeing his true whereabouts, Wei Yan pretended to lead his troops towards Yangping Pass after breaking through.

Later, after successfully throwing off Wei Jun's troops, Wei Yan led his troops back quickly, and quietly detoured to Dingjun Mountain through some hidden areas.

All this is not difficult for Wei Yan who is familiar with the terrain of Nanzheng.

Therefore, the place where Zhoutai and Wei Yan are located is on Dingjun Mountain.

Dingjun Mountain is located in the south of Nanzheng, and it is the highest mountain in the Nanzheng area. Looking down from Dingjun Mountain, it is easy to see some actions of Wei Jun.

For example, there are currently a large number of Wei troops on the north bank of the Han River, and they are building dikes on the Han River.

Most importantly, from the perspective of Wei Yan and Zhou Tai, it is not difficult to see that the dikes built by Wei Jun have been roughly completed.

It was after seeing this that Wei Yan became anxious.

"Don't you know what that means?"

In Wei Yan's deep voice, there was a hint of impatience.

What Wei Yan can see, Zhou Tai can also see, and Zhou Tai, who has been taught by Mi Yang, naturally knows what Wei Jun's embankment is about to be repaired, and what it means.

It means that after a period of time at most, maybe a few days, the torrential Han River below will pour towards Nanzheng City.

How could this not make Wei Yan feel impatient.

Of course, the impatience in Zhoutai's heart is no lower than that in Wei Yan's heart, but he still shook his head and said:

"Regardless of the situation below, as long as the time is not up, I will not open the general's bag."

Seeing that Zhoutai was so stubborn, Wei Yan couldn't help being impatient, and his voice couldn't help but become louder in his desperation.

"Do you still expect reinforcements from Yizhou?
It has been a year, a whole year, has the imperial court ever given us Liangzhou half a point of support!

All we have left to do is ourselves. "

When Wei Yan said these words, there was a lot of dissatisfaction in his tone.

This level of dissatisfaction was not only in his heart, but also in the hearts of many soldiers in Liangzhou, but only Wei Yan dared to speak out directly.

The situation in Liangzhou has become so critical now, is it because Liangzhou's soldiers are not effective enough to die?Or is the general's command unfavorable?
If it were for these two reasons, Liangzhou would have been lost long ago. The reason for the current precarious situation is that Liangzhou did not receive any support.

It's not that Wei Yan doesn't know that the court has difficulties, but if it takes a few months, Wei Yan can still make himself understand.

But a whole year has passed, Liangzhou's blood is almost drained, and the imperial court's reinforcements are still nowhere in sight. How can Wei Yan, who is impatient, understand this?

Perhaps at first Wei Yan was dissatisfied with becoming Mi Yang's subordinate, but with many joint battles, Wei Yan's mentality also unconsciously changed.

He is a courtier of the Han Dynasty, but also a general of Liangzhou, with a strong sense of locality.

Wei Yan's roar attracted the attention of the surrounding soldiers, but after listening to Wei Yan's words, their faces became gloomy.

It can be seen from their expressions that they agree with Wei Yan's words.

Even though Mi Yang has been speaking for the court in the past, this is not worth the truth after all.

Wei Yan thought that his own words would also resonate with Zhoutai, so that he would not be so stubborn, but Zhoutai did resonate, but he still raised his neck, resolutely refusing to hand over the kit in his arms.

Zhou Tai knew why he was appointed by Mi Yang as Wei Yan's deputy general, and why Mi Yang handed over the kit to him, wasn't it just to guard against such a situation?
That being the case, he must not disappoint Mi Yang's trust.

Zhoutai's behavior made Wei Yan more anxious. Thinking of the breakout battle some time ago, how could Zhoutai be safe and sound if he hadn't defended him to the death? Almost everyone in his tribe was injured, but Zhoutai Did it not hurt the hair?
Unexpectedly, Zhoutai doesn't think of kindness at all.

Wei Yan, who got up in a hurry, didn't care about it, he took a step forward, thinking of snatching the kit in Zhou Tai's arms.

Perhaps this kind of thing will make Mi Yang extremely dissatisfied in the future, but as long as he can save Mi Yang and Liangzhou without wasting the opportunity, Wei Yan is willing to take this responsibility.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Tai had expected Wei Yan's actions, he hurriedly jumped a few steps and shouted: "General Zhenbei intends to violate the general's order."

When Zhoutai yelled these words, thousands of Han soldiers who had been resting around stood up suddenly.

They are Wei Yan's headquarters soldiers and horses are good, but after Mi Yang reformed the military system, all the generals and schools in Wei Yan's headquarters troops are also Mi Yang's direct descendants.

And they knew Zhou Tai's identity, he was called a lieutenant general, but he was actually a supervising army!

Wei Yan saw thousands of soldiers stand up directly regardless of their injuries, and there was a faint tendency to surround him, which made Wei Yan feel inexplicable.

He wants to save our general!

The helpless and angry Wei Yan could not dare to disobey Mi Yang's orders. In the end, he could only draw out the long sword around his waist, slashed at the stone barrier in front of him, and said bitterly:

"I'm about to fight to the death, but the general won't let me!"

After reading this straight line, Wei Yan threw away the long sword in his hand, and sat on the stone barrier with his eyes closed to rest his mind angrily.

Seeing that Wei Yan finally calmed down, Zhou Tai secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It's just that he didn't know how many more days he could hold down Wei Yan. If the reinforcements were not seen by the time limit of half a month, I'm afraid Wei Yan didn't need to speak, and the remaining thousands of soldiers would start clamoring.

Because what Wei Yan said just now, was it not the voice of thousands of soldiers, and even himself?

A few more days passed like this, and just one day before the half-month deadline, when Zhou Tai felt that the eyes of thousands of soldiers were looking at him in a wrong way, a news from the depths of the dense forest startled the thousands of soldiers.

Of course, Wei Yan is not someone who will wait hard. During the waiting period, Wei Yan once sent his personal guards to investigate in the dense forest.

His personal guards had crossed Dingjun Mountain with him, and they had a certain understanding of the terrain of Dingjun Mountain, which would be beneficial for them to detect the traces of reinforcements in the dense forest, if there were reinforcements.

Why add an if?

Because Wei Yan had sent his personal guards a long time ago, but in recent days, there has been no news.

But today is different.

Several personal guards stumbled out of the dense forest and came to Wei Yan and Zhou Tai.

Along with those personal guards, Wei Yan and Fu Qian, whom Zhou Tai had not seen for a long time, also came.

Being in the same interest group, the relationship between Wei Yan, Zhou Tai and Fu Qian is like fellow villagers.

At the moment when almost everyone gave up hope, the old fellow who hadn’t seen him for a long time suddenly reunited from the mountains. In addition, the appearance of this old fellow foreshadowed an extremely important event. How could this not make Zhou Tai and Wei Yan ecstatic Woolen cloth?

Wei Yan rushed to Fu Qian in three steps and two steps, grabbed his arm and asked:

"Have reinforcements arrived?

How many soldiers and horses have come? "

Fu Qian, who had just trekked to Dingjun Mountain, was exhausted, but suddenly he was shaken violently by Wei Yan, which almost made him faint.

But when he saw Wei Yan and Zhou Tai, his heart was also filled with excitement.

This kind of excitement made him forget the physical discomfort.

It's just that he didn't answer Wei Yan's question directly, he just smiled and motioned Wei Yan and Zhou Tai to look into the dense forest behind them.

When Wei Yan and Zhou Tai looked towards the dense forest behind them, they saw an unforgettable scene in this life.

I saw soldiers covered with mud and thorns gradually appearing from the dense forest. Although the soldiers looked in a state of distress, their eyes were piercing, like stars shining in the starry sky.

And more importantly, with the passage of time, the entire mountain forest was gradually filled by the Han army that appeared one after another.

The red tassels on the pockets of the Han army look so dazzling in the dark forest!
Finally, another familiar figure appeared in the army—Deng Ai!
After Deng Ai saw Wei Yan and Zhou Tai, he hurried forward and embraced them tightly.

He finally came home.

After more than a month of trekking, the reinforcements from Yizhou finally arrived at Dingjun Mountain according to Mi Yang's plan!

After turning his mind from the intense surprise, Wei Yan immediately asked Zhou Tai to open Mi Yang's kit.

Although Deng Ai and Fu Qian didn't know why Wei Yan and Zhou Tai appeared on Dingjun Mountain, they still set their sights on Zhou Tai curiously after hearing that Mi Yang had a bag of kits to prepare.

And at this moment, Zhou Tai finally happily took out the kit from Mi Yang from his bosom, and took out the creed in it.

When Mi Yang's note was shown in the eyes of several Liangzhou generals, there was only one sentence written on it:

"Snatch the dike and flood the Wei camp!"

After such a simple sentence fell into the eyes of several Liangzhou generals, it caused several Liangzhou generals to burst into laughter.

Really worthy of being a general.

This is what the general did!
Since the general has an order, how can the subordinates refuse to obey?
Feeling that a historic moment was about to take place, Wei Yan couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, and drew out the long sword at his waist again, hacking at the stone barrier under his feet:
"Dead fight! Dead fight!"

This sentence is much shorter than the one he yelled a few days ago, but it also proves that Wei Yan's state of mind is different at this moment.

At that time, the ministers were about to fight to the death, but the general did not allow it. Today, the general taught the ministers how to fight to the death. For Wei Yan, who was already full of fighting spirit, how enjoyable it was?

Thousands of soldiers from Zhoutai and Wei Yan's headquarters saw Wei Yan's "return to old ways", and knowing the reason behind it, they couldn't help laughing and drew out their knives to chop the stones around them, shouting in their mouths:
"Dead fight! Dead fight!"

Deng Ai, Fu Qian and the tens of thousands of reinforcements who had just arrived didn't know the reason, but they were affected by their emotions, and they also subconsciously pulled out the blades at their waists, or knocked on the stones or tree trunks beside them, Shouted: "Fight to the death! Fight to the death!"

In the rainy season, there used to be a lot of rain in Hanzhong, so the tens of thousands of Han soldiers on Dingjun Mountain all had a lot of mud on their blades. The mud covered the blades, as if covering up the sharpness of the blades.

But at this moment, with the continuous beating of tens of thousands of Han troops, the tens of thousands of sharp blades were gradually washed away, revealing their sharpness!
And with the sound of tens of thousands of shouts, it seems to be pulled by some kind of force in the dark, the dark clouds in the sky are constantly gathering, and bursts of thunder are also resounding in the world.

Later historical records:

In July of the fourth year of Zhangwu in the Han Dynasty, the two armies successfully joined forces at Dingjun Mountain.

In July of the fourth year of Zhangwu in the Han Dynasty, there was a thunderstorm outside Dingjun Mountain, between the Nine Heavens and the Flat Earth!

On the second day, tens of thousands of Han troops rushed towards the embankment built by the Wei army.
