Chapter 166 Mi Yang’s Three Questions The heroine finally appears
Under the escort of a group of Han troops, Ding Feng quickly arrived outside the courtyard where Mi Yang lived.
After Gan Gao escorted Ding Feng outside the courtyard, he asked others to wait outside the courtyard. He opened the courtyard door himself and entered to report Mi Yang.
Soon after, Gan Gao turned around and commanded his soldiers to escort Ding Feng to a side hall in the courtyard.
When Ding Feng was escorted into the side hall, he saw Mi Yang in casual clothes sitting on the main seat.
This was the first time that Ding Feng saw Mi Yang at such a close distance. Before, in front of the Jianshui River, although he was standing in the front row, he only saw Mi Yang's figure dozens of steps away.
Mi Yang, who was sitting in front of him now, took off his military uniform and wore a dark green coat, a snow-white fur coat, and a jade hairpin. Compared with that day, Mi Yang was less heroic, but more powerful.
A touch of nobility.
After Mi Yang saw Ding Feng coming, he also took a closer look at Ding Feng's appearance.
He found that Ding Feng was nearly eight feet long, and even though he was a prisoner and had not had a full stomach for several days, his physique did not appear too thin.
In particular, most of the clothes Ding Feng was wearing were in tatters. From the holes, Mi Yang could vaguely see the scars on his body.
Those scars were all caused by his brave leadership in the war.
After observing Ding Feng's appearance, Mi Yang asked Ding Feng: "Among the many Jiangdong generals, you are the only one who took the initiative to serve. Why?"
In the previous battle of Public Security, Mi Yang not only captured many Wu soldiers, but also captured many generals in the Wu army.
But as Mi Yang said, among the hundreds of Wu army generals, only Ding Feng took the initiative to come to serve.
Mi Yang could not help but have some doubts about Ding Feng's initiative.
Upon hearing Mi Yang's question, Ding Feng couldn't salute because his hands were tied, so he could only straighten his body and answer Mi Yang:
"Report to the general, because most of the Jiangdong generals captured by the general are descendants of aristocratic families. They have land and wives in Jiangdong. They do not want to serve the general, but only want to return to Jiangdong one day."
"Feng Feng was poor since he was young. His parents died early and he was not yet married. He only has one younger brother, Ding Feng. Now my younger brother is also in the hands of the general."
"As the saying goes, a good bird chooses a tree to roost in. It has nothing to worry about in the east of the Yangtze River, so it can wholeheartedly serve the general."
Ding Feng's answer made Mi Yang nodded slightly.
Ding Feng specifically pointed out in his answer that he currently only has one relative, Ding Feng.
He also said that Ding Feng was now in Mi Yang's hands in order to tactfully tell Mi Yang that he was sincere in joining Mi Yang.
Although Ding Feng had not read any books, his mind was delicate.
Mi Yang picked up a cup of hot tea on the dining table, took a sip and continued: "I heard that you are from Lujiang. Lujiang is near Jiangxia, so I guess you should be quite familiar with Jiangxia."
"Let me ask you, if our army attacks Jiangxia at this time, what are the chances of winning?"
Mi Yang's question made Ding Feng think deeply. After thinking about it, he organized his words and replied: "Most of the cities in Jiangxia County are built along the water. If the general wants to attack Jiangxia County, he should advance by waterway and remove them everywhere."
"Among the cities in Jiangxia, the county and Shaxian city defenses are the strongest, no less than the public security."
"In addition, Governor Lu had left elite soldiers in Lujiang County. If Jiangxia is in trouble, the elite soldiers in Lujiang County can come to the rescue overnight."
"If you don't surround the city with a large army, Shaxian City will not be easy to capture."
After Ding Feng finished his analysis, he looked at Mi Yang.
After Mi Yang heard Ding Feng say that Lu Meng still had some elite soldiers in Lujiang County, his expression changed slightly.
Originally, Mi Yang thought that most of the people in Jiangxia County today were just defeated soldiers who escaped from the police.
But despite this surprise, Mi Yang's expression remained calm.
Ding Feng saw that Mi Yang's face did not show any affirmation of his analysis, so he felt a little uneasy.
Mi Yang's first question was to examine his true intention of surrendering.
Mi Yang's second question was to examine his ability.
Mi Yang held the teacup in his hand, and his fingers kept sliding on the rim of the teacup. Finally, he asked Ding Fengdao: "Now that you have surrendered to me, how should I use you in the future?"
This is Mi Yang's third question. This question is about what Ding Feng can do for him.
After Ding Feng listened to Mi Yang's question, he answered Mi Yang with confidence on his face: "Although Feng doesn't know the art of war and strategy, he has a lot of courage."
"If the general needs someone to break the enemy's camp, or to climb the city first, or to kill the general and capture the flag, he can go ahead and do it."
"Although Feng dare not say that he will be a general and win every battle, he will not retreat and will only move forward bravely."
Listening to Ding Feng's heroic answer, a smile finally appeared on Mi Yang's face.
"good."
The future battles with the Wei army will definitely be tough battles.
Although wars in this world pay attention to military tactics and strategies, there will always be times when you encounter head-on confrontation.
By that time, no matter how good the strategy is, there will be no room for implementation.
In a fierce battle, brave people are most needed to boost one's own morale. Now Ding Feng's joining has just made up for the shortcomings of his generals.
Mi Yang personally took the bamboo slip beside him with the information of those who registered for enlistment. Then he picked up a writing brush, unfolded the bamboo slip, and wrote the names and place of origin of Ding Feng and his younger brother on it.
After finishing writing, Mi Yang handed the bamboo slip to Gan Gao, and then said to Gan Gao: "Take Chengyuan back to the military camp and tell Deng Shuzuo that I have accepted Chengyuan, and Chengyuan's younger brother has also been summoned."
Enlist in the army.”
"Instruct Deng Shuzuo to arrange clothes for Chengyuan Haosheng first, and I will personally appoint Chengyuan's position in the future."
After finishing speaking, Mi Yang ordered his men and women to remove the ropes tied to Ding Feng's body.
After Gan Gao listened to Mi Yang's instructions, he took Ding Feng away.
After Ding Feng's hands were released, he was finally able to salute Mi Yang.
After Ding Feng bowed to Mi Yang, he left happily.
As for what Mi Yang said about assigning him a position in the future, Ding Feng could understand it.
After all, Mi Yang's army is currently in its infancy, and many positions have not yet been decided. When the army is gathered in the future, everything will naturally get on track.
Moreover, Mi Yang himself said that he would personally assign him a position in the future. If the leader of an army can make such a promise, the position will definitely not be too low.
After Gan Gao led Ding Feng away, Mi Yang, who had gained another general, was in a good mood. He wanted to find someone to share his happy mood.
However, he discovered that Guan Ping, who had come to Jiangling with him that day and had been inseparable from him, had not been seen in the past few days.
He couldn't help but wonder, where did he go?
You said you were going back home to pack your luggage, but no one has packed it yet?
In the former general's mansion in Jiangling City, Guan Ping was directing his servants to pack furniture and luggage in a backyard of the mansion.
Xiangyang City has been captured. As the base for the Han Army's Northern Expedition in the future, Xiangyang City must be guarded by Guan Yu himself.
Since Guan Yu will be stationed permanently in Xiangyang in the future, most of the objects in this huge former general's mansion will also have to be moved to Xiangyang City.
Guan Yu was not a person who liked luxury, so the former general's mansion was not big.
But Liu Bei couldn't help but love Guan Yu, so he kept giving Guan Yu rewards in the past few years. The rewards could be described as all kinds of things.
After years of continuous rewards, just packing up the things Liu Bei rewarded in the former general's mansion was a time-consuming task.
In the backyard, Guan Pinggang directed his servants to load a rockery shaped like an eagle onto a huge vehicle.
This rockery was carved by Gongsun Shu when he was in Chengdu two hundred years ago.
After Liu Bei captured Chengdu, he discovered that this rockery was shaped like an eagle and felt that Guan Yu would like it, so he had it transported thousands of miles from Chengdu to Jiangling as a gift to Guan Yu.
Let’s just say it’s outrageous or not.
After ordering his slaves to move the rockery onto the cart, Guan Ping saw other slaves carrying thousands of pieces of Shu brocade.
He quickly stepped forward and told his slaves to be careful. Shu brocade was a valuable treasure in this world. It would be a pity if it was damaged during transportation.
After Liu Bei captured Chengdu, he gave Zhuge Liang, Fazheng, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu 500 jins of gold each, 1,000 jins of silver, 50 million yuan, and 1,000 pieces of brocade. As a reward, they were the best among the generals.
Just when Guan Ping was multitasking and instructing the servants in the mansion to carry the belongings in the mansion, there was a woman sitting on an attic in the backyard.
This woman's beautiful black hair is tied up with a hosta as a support, and then fixed with a flower-like step.
Wearing a snow-white fairy skirt, she completely highlighted her slender body.
Her lips are red and her teeth are white, her skin is like grease, and her brows are like smoke. Even with a light makeup, her features are more beautiful. Coupled with the embellishment of the snow-white fairy skirt, she looks even more refined.
This woman is Guan Yu's daughter and Guan Ping's sister, Guan Yan, also known as Yinping.
Guan Yinping leaned on the railing of the attic, looking at Guan Ping who was busy below. He saw that Guan Ping started to scratch his head because of his busyness, and she couldn't help but let out bursts of laughter like silver bells.
Unexpectedly, General Guan, who had recently become famous outside and defeated the Wu army, would be troubled by trivial matters at home.
Guan Yinping's sweet laughter reached Guan Ping's ears below. He raised his head and looked up at the attic, and saw his good sister watching him busy with a smile on her face. He felt very angry.
Come.
Guan Ping quickly walked up to the attic. He came to Guan Yinping and scolded her: "Are you just watching your brother busy like this?"
"At least I have to help my brother."
Facing Guan Ping's accusation, Guan Yinping turned to look at Guan Ping, her bright eyes flashed with a hint of pride, and she said to Guan Ping:
"Before, my younger sister was responsible for taking care of the housework and packing things in the house, but my elder brother felt that my sister's progress was too slow, so he had to take over personally."
"A brother is like a father, so how can I disobey my brother's words?"
"Now that my brother has taken over, he blames me for not helping. It's really unreasonable."
Guan Yinping's words made Guan Ping choke on his words.
After he and Mi Yang arrived in Jiangling City, he returned to his mansion and told Guan Yinping to prepare all the moving matters first.
After giving the instructions, he went to look for Mi Yang again.
As a result, when Guan Ping returned to the mansion again, he found that most of the furniture and items in the general's mansion had not yet been packed and loaded into the car, so he became a little anxious.
After all, Mi Yang's recruitment matters are progressing rapidly. If the recruitment is completed, Mi Yang will return to Xiangyang City immediately.
If it were normal, it would be nothing if it delayed the moving trip.
But before that, Guan Ping had received a letter from Guan Yu, in which Guan Yu told him that the auspicious date for Guan Yinping's marriage had been roughly determined.
Thinking that the wedding was approaching, if he hadn't transported Guan Yinping and her dowry to Xiangyang City by the time Guan Yinping's wedding came, he would definitely be besieged by Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Mi Fang.
Thinking of such consequences, how could he not be anxious.
So because he was anxious, he personally took over the task of packing home decoration from Guan Yinping.
But unexpectedly, what Guan Pingyuan thought was very simple, after he took over, he found that it was not that simple.
At first he didn't even know what was in the general's mansion.
Since he took over, the progress of cleaning up the General's Mansion has become even slower.
Now Guan Ping also knows that if it is not something he is good at, he should not interfere at will.
In desperation, facing Guan Yinping's words, Guan Ping could only apologize: "Good sister, it was my brother who was wrong before.
My brother is away fighting on a regular basis, so he naturally doesn’t understand these internal affairs, so he thought it was very simple. For the sake of brother-sister relationship, please take over again as soon as possible."
"Don't delay your wedding date."
When Guan Ping mentioned the word wedding date, a look of shyness suddenly appeared on Guan Yinping's face, which was originally a little proud.
Thinking of her wedding date with that person, Guan Yinping blushed and said to Guan Pingyan: "For his sake, I will help you."
"But you can no longer interfere with my arrangements."
Now that Guan Ping heard that Guan Yinping was willing to take over the internal affairs again, a look of relief instantly appeared on his face.
But he suddenly came back to his senses and whispered Guan Yinping's words: "For his sake."
Guan Ping's words were full of ridicule.
Guan Yinping's face became even more shy after hearing this, but she just rolled her eyes at Guan Ping, and then began to stand on the attic, commanding the servants below.
Under Guan Yinping's command, the originally chaotic scene gradually became orderly.
Visible to the naked eye, the progress of home decoration in the General's Mansion suddenly accelerated.
After Guan Yu's wife died, Guan Yu did not take any concubines, and Guan Ping's wife usually stayed in Shu, so Guan Yinping took care of the household affairs.
Guan Yinping was deeply loved by Guan Yu. Because of his love, Guan Yu personally taught Guan Yinping how to form troops since she was a child.
Therefore, Guan Yinping, who had been influenced by Guan Yu since childhood, often used the art of war to restrain the servants in the mansion when he later managed the internal affairs of the mansion.
Guan Yinping personally trained the general's servants in the art of war for several years, and Guan Ping would certainly get twice the result with half the effort when using them.
Seeing that the internal affairs of the mansion became orderly under Guan Yinping's arrangements, Guan Ping's heart finally returned to his stomach.
He remembered that he hadn't seen Mi Yang for a long time in the past few days, so he started to turn around and go downstairs.
When Guan Yinping saw that Guan Ping was leaving, she immediately asked: "Brother, where are you going?"
Guan Ping left very quickly, and after a while, his figure appeared under the attic.
"I'm going to meet Zisheng for a drink!"
By the time Guan Ping's words floated far above the attic, Guan Ping's figure had already disappeared from Guan Yinping's sight.
Seeing Guan Ping's impatient look, Guan Yinping remembered what Guan Ping had said teasing her just now, and an idea came to her mind.
How could a brother like this still have the right to tease her?
Isn't it the same as her?
After Guan Ping disappeared, Guan Yinping saw no one around him and took out a silk book from his arms.
The silk book was written by her herself, the battle report of Mi Yang's public security battle.
Green jade fingers carefully traced each word on it, and Guan Yinping recalled a scene from his childhood in his mind.
During the battle at Dangyang, all the troops dispersed.
On a carriage being chased by thousands of enemies, there was a boy holding tightly in his arms a girl who was so frightened that she kept crying.
She was happy to marry Zisheng.
By the way, is this the first woman to appear in this book?
It’s almost 500,000 words.
There are two theories about Guan Yinping's name: Guan Feng and Guan Yan. One is a name in a Japanese game, and the other is a name in Chinese folklore.
I will definitely give priority to the ones from Chinese folklore.
