Chapter 528
Mi Yang naturally knew how much Cao Zhen hated him now, and that kind of hatred would make Cao Zhen not scruples about the saying that "the two armies are at war, and they are not beheaded".
In order to protect the lives of his soldiers as much as possible, Mi Yang came up with a compromise.
That is to prevent Fa Miao from directly sending envoys to Chang'an.
Instead of going to Chang'an, where should the messenger go?
It's very simple, there are so many counties around Chang'an.
So on the second day when Mi Yang led his army to Xiegukou, Sun Li secretly rejoiced in thinking that he had tricked Mi Yang and sent envoys to Chang'an to announce the good news to Cao Zhen. More than a dozen messengers from the Han army walked out of Xiegukou. .
Under the orders of Zhou Tai, more than a dozen messengers of the Han army galloped towards the county town near Chang'an according to the map on their bodies.
Surrounding Chang'an is an endless plain, which greatly speeds up the speed of the horses under the crotch of the messenger of the Han army.
More importantly, after learning of the arrival of Mi Yang's army, Cao Zhen decisively adopted the strategy of fortifying the wall and clearing the country.
As a result, more than a dozen Han army messengers encountered almost no obstacles on the land of Guanzhong near Chang'an.
So, one day at the latest, or two days at the latest, Baling, Duling, Zheng, Xinfeng and other counties near Chang'an all saw the arrival of Han army messengers outside the city.
Just when the magistrates of the counties thought that the messenger of the Han army was here to persuade them to surrender, and thought of standing up against the wind on the top of the city and sternly refusing, the content of the letter read out by the messenger of the Han army almost made the magistrates of the counties kneel directly on the city wall superior!
"Pull out your sword and look around, you will see everything you see, and you will be invincible with every eye."
This sentence alone reflects Mi Yang's daunting arrogance.
The most important thing is that when Mi Yang uttered this sentence, they didn't even think it was wrong at all.
If this sentence only shocked the hearts of the county magistrates, then the eight words "Fortunately don't treat the boudoir, make the world laugh" are even more so that Mi Yang slapped Cao Zhen in the face in front of the whole Guanzhong.
Even directly roasted Cao Zhen on the fire.
What does this sentence mean?
In the vernacular, that is: Don't hide in the boudoir like a woman, if you have the ability, come out for a touch, if you don't come out, the whole world will look down on you.
And most importantly, although Mi Yang's words first fell into the ears of the county magistrates, all the county magistrates knew that Mi Yang's words were actually said to Cao Zhen.
The sum of the two sentences before and after perfectly reveals Mi Yang's current state of mind: he is very arrogant.
But he happened to have this arrogant capital.
So when these two sentences fell into the ears of the county magistrates, they were not only shocked, but also naturally fearful.
A single letter can easily shake the hearts of the army and the people in Guanzhong. This is the best embodiment of General Mi's prestige in Guanzhong.
Under the power of Xuanhe, hundreds of thousands of living and living people in Jingzhao can be aroused to tremble with fear.
And if this news spread to other counties and counties in Guanzhong, how could there be only hundreds of thousands of people living in fear of Mi Yang's prestige?
The first effect that Mi Yang wanted has been perfectly achieved virtually.
Seeing the messy appearance of the county magistrates in the cold wind, even if they were outside different counties, more than a dozen Han army messengers still burst into laughter and left.
Compared with Wei Jun's fear of Mi Yang, as Mi Yang's subordinates, they were full of pride at this moment.
From the beginning to the end, no county magistrate dared to send troops out of the city to intercept and kill those Han army messengers.
They just stood there, letting the Han army messenger laugh wildly and leave.
When the messenger of the Han army left the city, the county magistrates quickly realized another thing-should this matter be reported to Cao Zhen?
The county magistrates have this hesitation in their hearts, because the communication between the counties is not smooth under the strong walls and clear fields.
Each of them didn't know whether the messengers of the Han army went to other cities or only came to their own city.
They didn't even know if the messenger of the Han army went to Chang'an to read the contents of this letter to Cao Zhen.
But even with this doubt, the county magistrates did not send messengers to Chang'an immediately.
This is because the content of that letter is too powerful, and they find it difficult to accept after hearing it, let alone Cao Zhen, the person involved?
If Cao Zhen already knows the content of this letter, and they happen to send a messenger to Chang'an to expose this scar again in front of Cao Zhen, then Cao Zhen is so angry that he can't punish them?
One by one hesitation kept brewing in the hearts of the county magistrates, but after all kinds of thinking, the county magistrates still sent messengers to Chang'an in unison.
Sending a messenger may anger Cao Zhen, but if you don't send a messenger to report this matter, you may be involved in the relationship with foreign enemies.
Between the two, the latter is more serious.
The county magistrates were actually worried that they were wrong. They didn't know that Mi Yang had not sent a messenger to Chang'an.
But Mi Yang expected that after hearing the content of the letter, the county magistrates would unconsciously become his mouthpieces.
This is the second effect Mi Yang wants.
The envoys sent by the various counties set off sooner or later, probably due to the different departure times, the envoys from the various counties arrived in Chang'an almost on the same day.
However, the Han army has not changed much recently, which made Cao Zhen very worried.
So after hearing that the magistrates of many counties had sent messengers, Cao Zhen, who had a bad feeling in his heart, immediately received the messengers.
In the meeting hall of the General's Mansion, a total of ten messengers from various counties stood neatly under Cao Zhen.
At this time, in the meeting hall, there were also many Wei generals seated.
After seeing the messengers from various counties, Cao Zhen hurriedly asked anxiously: "What happened? But the thieves divided their troops to attack you?"
Cao Zhen asked what he was most worried about.
Although it is known from the news reported by Sun Li that Mi Yang was successfully confused by his suspicious strategy, and has been holding back for the past few days.
But Mi Yang has always been cunning, maybe he has seen through his suspicious tactics long ago, instead he followed his tricks and divided his troops to attack the counties in Guanzhong.
This is exactly what Cao Zhen is most worried about.
Because he is very empty now.
But under Cao Zhen's questioning, the messengers from various counties became hesitant.
Seeing the ghostly appearance of these messengers, Cao Zhen became even more angry.
What do you want to say, who is this ghostly looking for?
Cao Zhen slapped the table hard, and said in a majestic tone: "If you have anything to say, just talk about it, I have my own calculations."
Even though Cao Zhen was beaten by Mi Yang and almost couldn't come back, Cao Zhen still has prestige in the territory of Wei.
With the "support" of Cao Zhen, all the messengers finally took out a letter from their arms.
Seeing such a uniform movement between each other, not only the messengers were surprised by each other, but even Cao Zhen seemed a little confused.
But after Liu Ye at the side fetched more than a dozen letterheads and showed them to Cao Zhen, Cao Zhen soon stopped being surprised.
After seeing the content of the first letter, Cao Zhen was already furious.
But he still maintained a semblance of reason, allowing himself to open the second letter and read it.
After reading the content of the second letter, the last trace of rationality in Cao Zhen's mind disappeared.
But out of the basic qualities of a famous general, Cao Zhen mechanically picked up the third letter on the case and read it.
But when Cao Zhen read the content of the third letter, all his rationality and the qualities of a famous general disappeared at this moment.
Cao Zhen, who was furious, kicked the table in front of him flying. He got up and drew the long sword at his waist, and shouted angrily while swinging the sword in the direction of the entrance of the valley:
"Mi thief, you are too deceitful.
I will definitely sleep on your skin and drink your blood! "
Cao Zhen's sudden furious action frightened all the messengers, and made all the Wei generals in the hall stand up in fright.
What did he do again?
It is impossible to go to dig the Weishui River!
Due to the fear in his heart, some Wei generals quickly picked up the scattered letters on the ground and read them.
After reading the contents of the letter, they looked at Cao Zhen with sympathy.
They understood why Cao Zhen was suddenly so angry.
No man can bear the contents of the letter.
Cao Zhen caught the sympathetic glances of many Wei generals.
His whole face was flushed red, and he was holding the sword in his hand directly above him, and he was about to walk out of the hall door and lead the troops out of the city to fight against Mi Yang.
After all the Wei generals saw Cao Zhen's behavior, many people were frightened and "turned pale".
They know exactly how many troops are in Chang'an now.
It is no problem to guard Chang'an with [-] elite soldiers and wait for reinforcements, but Mi Yang brought [-] troops to the Northern Expedition this time.
Sending [-] elite soldiers out of the city to fight against Mi Yang, who commanded a [-] army, isn't that sending death for nothing?
Some Wei generals subconsciously stepped forward and hugged Cao Zhen's thigh, making Cao Zhen unable to move forward, and some of them even cried anxiously:
"General, state affairs are the most important thing, and Chang'an is the most important thing!"
Soon after, all the Wei generals in the hall knelt down and admonished Cao Zhen to put state affairs first and suppress their anger.
Facing the actions of the generals to dissuade him with his own body, Cao Zhen wanted to break free, but he couldn't break free.
In the end, he had no choice but to kneel and sit on the ground, powerless, with tears in his eyes.
For a hot-blooded man, if he encounters such a thing, but can't take revenge, can he not cry?
Mi Yang compared him to a woman in the letter, which was humiliating him.
What's even more exaggerated is that Mi Yang is so disgusting that he sent so many messengers to Jingzhao counties.
It seems that at this time, not only the counties in Jingzhao know the contents of this letter, but I am afraid that the entire Guanzhong will also know about it soon.
At that moment, if he hadn't taken any action, how would the people in the whole Guanzhong think of him?
Do you praise him for bearing humiliation more, or call him more timid than a tiger?
You must know that he is the general of Cao Wei, and he bears the honor of Cao Wei.
Mi Yang humiliated not only him, but also the whole Wei.
But even if he was so overwhelmed by the enemy, he could not make any favorable counterattack. This made Cao Zhen, who regarded Cao Wei's country as his life, how could he endure it.
In the past few days, Mi Yang has been standing still, and he was worried that Mi Yang was preparing some bad moves, but he never expected that Mi Yang would be able to go so far and make such a heart-breaking move.
Cao Zhen, whose face was covered with tears, could only look up to the sky and sigh:
"After today, it will make people laugh forever!"
After uttering this mournful cry, Cao Zhen's eyes went dark, and he fell directly into the arms of the generals.
Pure is angry.
Mi Yang, who had been waiting in the camp for several days, had not waited for the scouts to report the sign of Chang'an dispatching troops.
Calculating according to the time, Cao Zhen should have received the gift he prepared. With Cao Zhen's character, he shouldn't be indifferent.
Unless Chang'an's current military strength is definitely very empty.
Mi Yang immediately made this judgment in his heart.
But Cao Zhen certainly didn't expect that Mi Yang was more empty than him.
However, although Cao Zhen did not immediately lead his army out of Chang'an to find him desperately, the scouts sent by Mi Yang still found a lot of useful information.
In the past few days, the city of Chang'an has continuously sent messengers to various places in Guanzhong.
There are even messengers heading towards Luoyang.
Presumably it was Cao Zhen who sent him to various places to recruit reinforcements.
It can be seen from this that Cao Zhen didn't want to fight him, but just wanted to wait for the reinforcements to arrive, and then defeat him in one go.
However, this is precisely the third effect that Mi Yang wanted to achieve in writing that letter.
Don't forget, Mi Yang, who has a bottom line but not a high bottom line from later generations, can be regarded as the most aggressive person in the world.
Didn't Mi Yang's first battle in his life back then be to anger Sun Huan with a letter, which made Sun Huan step on the road of no return?
Although anyone can see that Mi Yang is trying to provoke the general, Mi Yang expects that Cao Zhen will fall into the trap.
There is no other reason, Guanzhong is the lifeblood of Cao Wei, and the stability of the army is the key to guarding Guanzhong.
If it is true that he has not responded to Mi Yang's aggressive generals, then Guanzhong's already unstable military spirit will be even more decadent.
At that time, the situation will only be more unfavorable to Cao Wei.
The enemy is strong and we are weak, and no matter how morale our own troops are, how can we still fight this battle?
Although Sima Yi was tolerant in history, Cao Zhen is not Sima Yi after all.
After learning that Cao Zhen was recruiting reinforcements from various places, Mi Yang had already completed his task of sending troops along the way.
With his prestige, coupled with his extremely arrogant tone, it's no wonder that Cao Zhen didn't recruit all the elites in Guanzhong to fight with him.
Then he just had to wait and see what happened.
As long as most of the troops in Guanzhong come outside Chang'an City, that is the best time for Liu Bei to send troops to the Northern Expedition.
Then Mi Yang got up and came to the high platform in the camp, his eyes looked towards the east.
Sun Quan, Lu Xun, it's time for you to move!
Sun Quan had made it clear earlier that he would send troops to attack Hefei.
But until today, Jiangdong's army has not yet entered the border of Huainan.
Mi Yang knew what Sun Quan was thinking.
Sun Quan was waiting for the news that he appeared in Guanzhong.
Once this news reaches him, he will definitely send troops to the Northern Expedition without hesitation.
Mi Yang was right. Not long after, when Jiangdong's spies in Guanzhong reported the news of Mi Yang's troops in Guanzhong back to Jianye, Sun Quan immediately summoned all the ministers in Jianye City.
Now that Mi Yang has been watching Guanzhong, it will be time for him to raise his troops in Huainan.
The two sides work together to pull down Cao Wei, who has always been incompetent in the past and despises the world, from the position of the strongest in the world!
