Chapter 292 Wei Yan's Fate

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Is Wei Jun strong?

The bravery of the Wei army was already reflected on the battlefield not far away.

Among the 20,000 Wei troops, even though there were powerful generals like Xu Chu, Xu Chu was mainly responsible for commanding the more than 2,000 Wei cavalry.

In the confrontation between infantry and infantry, although Cao Xiu was considered a man with good martial arts, his performance was far inferior to Zhang Fei's bravery.

Even before the two armies started fighting, the morale of the Han army was higher than that of the Wei army because of Zhang Fei's heroic performance.

The importance of morale to a large army is self-evident.

But under these two unfavorable conditions, the Wei army was still able to slowly gain a combat advantage over the Han army in a battle with real swords and guns.

Although the Han army suffered the disadvantage of being inferior to the Wei army in terms of weapons, this had a lot to do with the Wei army's own proficiency in fighting.

There are many reasons for Wei Jun's good fighting skills, but Mi Yang is not in the mood to explore those reasons now.

Because he was about to personally attack the Wei army in front of him.

Seeing the 20,000 Wei troops approaching him step by step with neat steps and spears in hand, Mi Yang, who had excellent eyesight, could even see the cold eyes in the eyes of the Wei troops in the front row.

What is a veteran of many battles?

Follow orders and prohibitions without any distractions.

The moment the war horn blows, their eyes will be devoid of any emotion, and then under the command of the general, they will crush the enemies in front who dare to block them.

Just like the heroes of the North they had crushed under Cao Cao's command.

The uniform steps of 20,000 people seemed to come from the horizon, from far to near.

Whether it was an illusion or not, Mi Yang felt that as the 20,000 Wei troops approached step by step, the ground beneath his feet seemed to begin to shake under the trampling of the 20,000 Wei troops.

Mi Yang had just witnessed the cruelty of ancient large-scale field battles with his own eyes, but watching from the sidelines and experiencing it personally were two different things.

At this moment, Mi Yang felt unprecedented pressure.

This kind of pressure is even more severe than the pressure he felt when he was trapped in an isolated city of Gong'an and surrounded by 100,000 Wu troops.

Although the Wu army was large in number at that time, their eliteness could not be compared with that of the Wei army.

What's more, no matter how small Mi Yang's troops were at that time, there was always a police station to rely on as a fortified city.

The pressure on him who did not face the enemy directly at that time is certainly incomparable with the pressure he faces now when he faces the enemy directly.

However, although the 20,000 Wei troops in front of him brought greater pressure to Mi Yang, Mi Yang's eyes remained firm.

Enemies are not to be feared, but to be killed.

Even though there is no towering wall in front of him to block the enemy's advance, there are tens of thousands of troops around him who can serve as his arms.

Mi Yang commanded the tens of thousands of direct Han troops around him as if he were commanding his own arms.

When the 20,000 Wei troops were getting closer and closer to the Han army, Mi Yang summoned two brave generals.

One of the generals was his direct general Ding Feng, and the other general was Wei Yan who was the general of Zhenbei at that time.

Mi Yang is now the governor of Yibei, and he has the authority to rule over all generals belonging to the Yibei region.

Even if Wei Yan is now the general of Zhenbei, he is still included in this list.

After Ding Feng and Wei Yan came to Mi Yang's side respectively, Mi Yang mainly turned his attention to Wei Yan.

Because Mi Yang didn't have much worries about Ding Feng, who had already surrendered to him.

As for Wei Yan, Mi Yang was not so relieved.

Because of Wei Yan's arrogant behavior, Mi Yang specially summoned him to his side.

Mi Yang did this out of consideration for the overall situation, and also to temper Wei Yan's temperament for a good life.

Mi Yang did not ask Wei Yan to obey him completely, but at least asked Wei Yan not to disobey his orders.

Because of this purpose, Mi Yang specifically stimulated Wei Yan's desire to fight after summoning him, but deliberately prevented him from fighting.

Judging from Wei Yan's eagerness for success, he is now like a hungry tiger.

However, Mi Yang locked the limbs of this already hungry tiger, which undoubtedly made Wei Yan feel even more uncomfortable.

The more uncomfortable Wei Yan felt, the stronger his desire to fight.

And the longer a tiger keeps him hungry, the more he will become sluggish.

On the contrary, when he let go of his limbs, his roar resounded through the forest again.

This is the time.

Mi Yang looked at him and said, "Are you willing to make meritorious deeds?"

Hearing the words "meritorious service" made Wei Yan, whose fighting spirit was already high because of the enemy's constant approach, even stronger.

Wei Yan's eyes turned red instantly.

Is he afraid of death?

Coming from a poor family, he was not afraid.

Although he calls himself a great man, he is afraid of being unknown all his life, and he is even more afraid of others slandering him as a lucky minister.

So what should be used to wash away his worries and wash away his shame?

Only the blood of the enemy can only continuously build military exploits.

Now that Mi Yang has personally given him the opportunity to establish military exploits, how can Wei Yan not feel extremely excited?

Seeing Wei Yan's expression, Mi Yang nodded.

He asked Wei Yan to step back for a while and follow the order.

After Wei Yan withdrew, Mi Yang said to Ding Feng again: "Today you are here, and you are more virtuous than tens of thousands of people. Whether the matter will be helped or not depends on you."

Unlike Wei Yan, although Ding Feng also had a strong desire to perform meritorious service, as a surrendered general, Mi Yang sometimes valued him more.

Sure enough, after listening to Mi Yang's words, Ding Feng felt so valued by Mi Yang and excitedly bowed down to Mi Yang and said, "I am willing to die for the champion!"

Seeing Ding Feng's performance, Mi Yang had a smile on his face.

He also asked Ding Feng to step aside temporarily and act as ordered later.

Mi Yang knew that he was not as brave as Zhang Fei, so he could not adopt Zhang Fei's fighting method.

It's just that everyone has their own strengths, and he just needs to make good use of his strengths.

After motivating Wei Yan and Ding Feng with different words, Mi Yang looked at the 20,000 Wei troops who had arrived in front of the Han army's formation.

Soon after, the harsh sound of thousands of spears being exchanged resounded in front of the two armies again, and almost instantly, many soldiers from both sides fell.

Facing the fact that there were obviously more spears than her own stabbing at her own army, Mi Yang did not panic.

Because he knows that the greater test is behind him.

Sure enough, when the spearmen of both sides were stabbing each other, the enemy's commanding general Sun Li stared closely at Mi Yang, who was wearing bright light armor, with a coldness flashing in his eyes.

How much is the head of a Han deer worth?

I'm afraid it is a priceless treasure to any Wei general.

Today, as long as he, Sun Li, can capture Mi Yang's head, it can be said that the road leading to high-ranking officials and rich salaries has been opened to him.

And he, Sun Li, could also step on Mi Yang's head and become a famous general that attracted much attention in the world.

This kind of temptation is difficult for any Wei general to resist.

What's more, the number of troops he currently has is twice that of Mi Yang.

Sun Li was not one to fight stupidly. He had an advantage in military strength and it was impossible for him not to use it.

So he ordered his two lieutenants to lead 5,000 Wei troops respectively, to come out from the Wei army formation at the rear and move toward the two flanks of the 10,000 Han troops.

Because his troops were superior, Sun Li could easily divide his forces.

Even if he detached an army of 10,000, he would still have an army of 10,000 facing the Han army.

Sun Li's idea was that he would lead an army of 10,000 in a head-on confrontation with Mi Yang's army of 10,000.

As for the two lieutenants leading 5,000 troops respectively to break through the flanks of the Han army, Mi Yang had no choice but to divide his troops if he wanted to ensure that the Han army's formation would not be breached.

Under such circumstances, this arrangement can ensure that the Wei army can maintain its strength advantage over the Han army no matter which direction it is in.

Under siege on three sides, as long as one side of the Han army was broken through, the only thing waiting for them would be a defeat.

As for why Sun Li didn't allocate more troops to attack the Han army from all directions.

This is because Sun Li is afraid of Mi Yang.

Although our own side has the advantage in military strength, Mi Yang is not an ordinary general, and the Han army he leads must also be a good warrior.

Therefore, Sun Li must always maintain his own strength advantage. Splitting his troops into two sides, with five thousand on each side, is currently the most appropriate arrangement.

In addition, encircling three and missing one is the key to the art of war. Leaving a gap for the enemy can also make them want to retreat when the battle is unfavorable.

Sun Li's approach was consistent with his status as a good general, and his approach was also a common attack method used by the Wei army in the past when facing an enemy with inferior strength.

It's just that Sun Li forgot that Mi Yang now is not the same person he was when he first traveled through time.

After experiencing several battles, Mi Yang's combat experience is also increasing rapidly, not to mention that he once had a good partner - Yu Jin.

In terms of understanding of the Wei army's fighting methods, which Wei general is Yu Jin inferior to?

Cao Wei's field army in the Xudu area was all trained by Yu Jin.

General Yu Wei, who placed all his treasure on Mi Yang, had already told Mi Yang everything he knew.

Although Mi Yang's martial arts is not good, his memory is excellent.

Therefore, Mi Yang was prepared for Sun Li's move to divide his troops.

When Sun Li's two lieutenants each led five thousand Wei troops towards the Han army's formation, Mi Yang did not show panic when he saw this scene.

The four words "know yourself and know your enemy" have long been engraved in his bones.

However, although Sun Li's move to divide his troops had been anticipated, whether they could successfully withstand the Wei army's attack still depended on the strength of Ding Feng and Wei Yan.

After all, the Wei army's military strength was in a superior position.

Each led five thousand Wei troops, and coming towards the flank of the Han army were the Wei generals Ma Tai and Wen Qin.

Among them, Ma Tai is Sun Li's hometown friend, and Wen Qin is the son of Cao Cao's old tribe.

When Ma Tai and Wen Qin led their troops towards the flank of the Han army, Mi Yang immediately waved his command flag.

He ordered Wei Yan and Ding Feng, who had been prepared for a long time, to lead 2,000 large swordsmen respectively from the military formation to resist the 5,000 Wei troops of Ma Tai and Wen Qin.

The one facing Ma Tai is Ding Feng, and the one facing Wen Qin is Wei Yan.

When Sun Li, who had been observing the situation on the battlefield, saw this, he became even more fearful of Mi Yang in his eyes.

In fact, when Mi Yang's 10,000-strong army confronted Sun Li's 20,000-strong army, their place had become a separate battlefield.

Their army also changed from a strange army to a regular army.

And when he detached two Wei armies to attack the flanks of Mi Yang's army, those two 5,000 Wei armies became the odd ones among his 20,000 army.

This is what Sun Tzu says in The Art of War:

"The war situation cannot be better than the strange and right, and the change of the strange and right cannot be defeated. The strange and the right arise from each other, just like the endless cycle, how can we be exhausted!"

Judging from the current situation, Mi Yang, who was the last to arrive first, is more skillful than him in the changing utilization of Zhengqi's troops.

No wonder General Wei wanted to kill Mi Yang so much.

He is full of wisdom and tricks, and he is also proficient in the art of battlefield command. If Mi Yang is not eliminated as soon as possible, will the Wei Dynasty still have peace in the future?

However, although Sun Li realized that Mi Yang had already taken precautions against his surprise soldiers, he was still full of confidence in his heart.

If five thousand Wei troops and two thousand Han troops face the enemy head on, victory will generally belong to him.

Sun Li's prediction was not wrong, but he overlooked one thing, that is, a large army fighting in a melee, fighting both soldiers and generals.

But he will find out soon.

When Wei Yan led his troops out of the battle, he saw the 5,000-strong Wei army arriving not far away.

But this scene didn't make Wei Yan look fearful on his face.

Even though the troops he currently leads are far weaker than the enemy's.

Wei Yan, who was eight feet tall, stood in front of two thousand Han troops holding swords. His eyes looked at the enemy general Wen Qin not far away, as if he were looking at a dead man.

Facing the enemy's attack, Wei Yan did not choose to form a formation to protect himself.

He ordered the two thousand Han troops behind him to raise their long swords and form a long formation, then formed rows of sword walls and actively advanced towards the enemy.

Since the Han army, which was currently at a disadvantage, did not have city walls or grain carts as a barrier, Wei Yan built a series of sword walls as a barrier for the army.

Anyone who wants to step on my formation must step on my sword first.

Wei Yan's behavior surprised Wen Qin, the leader of the five thousand Wei army.

It's just that he is also a brave man, so how could he be frightened by Wei Yan's actions despite his superior strength?

Wen Qin ordered the five thousand Wei troops behind him to attack the two thousand Han troops in front.

Sun Li's order to him was to quickly defeat the Han army's flanks.

As long as he can quickly break through the flank of the Han army led by Mi Yang, not only will Mi Yang be killed in the rebel army, but the outcome of this battlefield will also determine the outcome of another battlefield.

By then, Wen Qinke would have become famous.

Under the command of Wen Qin, the five thousand Wei troops drew their swords from their waists and attacked the Han army's sword array in front.

Five thousand terrifying shouts of killing rose from the ground, and the shining cold light of the swords in the hands of five thousand Wei soldiers enveloped the open space in front of the two thousand Han soldiers.

Facing this scene, Wei Yan shouted to the Han army behind him:

"Today's matter is to fight against the invaders with one's own body, to fight decisively in the battle formation, and to die in the hope of a lifetime. Otherwise, there will be death but no life."

After shouting these words, Wei Yan was like a tiger that had been hungry for a long time and rushed out of the cage. He took the lead, holding a big sword, and took the first step to kill the five thousand Wei army.

Wei Yan has been waiting for this opportunity to move forward for a long time.

When the extremely brave Wei Yan fought with a Wei soldier at the front, he relied on his own strength to sweep the long sword in his hand and beheaded the Wei soldier in front of him with one blow.

As the sharp blade passed across the Wei Jun's neck, a stream of hot blood sprayed on Wei Yan's face.

But without blinking an eye, Wei Yan cut off the head of another Wei soldier with a backhand sword.

After two strikes, the two enemy soldiers who were still alive just now turned into headless bloody corpses and lay down straight.

This scene greatly stimulated the Han soldiers behind Wei Yan.

In addition, Wei Yan's words had already spread throughout the army through transmission, so the morale of the Han army was very high at this time.

Under Mi Yang's training, these two thousand Han troops were already an elite force.

With their morale high, they will not flinch at all.

So the two thousand Han troops who formed a sword wall followed Wei Yan's steps, stepped firmly and neatly, and slashed at the enemy in front with their swords.

When thousands of sharp Han army swords touched the enemy's body, the screams of many Wei soldiers sounded around Wei Yan.

Listening to the bursts of screams, the murderous intention in Wei Yan's heart became even more intense.

Body after body fell at Wei Yan's feet, and Wei Yan felt that the grief and anger in his heart over the past few years were slowly being relieved.

He is not a lucky minister of the Han Dynasty.

He is a hero of the Han Dynasty today!
