Chapter 456: Everything in Buqin comes to Yangping’s aid quickly
After learning about Cao Hong's plan, Mi Yang felt a sense of déjà vu.
In history, when Zhong Hui conquered Shu, the Yangping Pass in Hanzhong was lost in a similar situation.
Thinking of that, Mi Yang felt that sometimes things in the world are really strange.
When Bu Nao thought about it again, Mi Yang realized that not only the world is wonderful, but also the human heart is like this.
The strategy proposed by Cao Hong, in addition to having a high probability of defeating Dongyang Pass, can also ensure the safety of one's own army to a great extent.
The reason why Cao Hong's strategy is consistent with the strategy adopted by the Wei army in history is because they have a clear understanding across time and space, or because they are naturally suspicious in their hearts.
When you have doubts, is there any better way to lull you?
Fu Qian, who lives in history, allowed himself to die in battle because of his negligence, and Yangping Pass fell, which directly led to the fall of the entire Hanzhong.
But Mi Yang was not Fu Qian. Cao Hong thought he was the oriole behind the mantis, but he did not know that Mi Yang was the hunter with a slingshot on his leg who wanted to shoot the bird.
After Mi Yang thought for a while, he looked at Wu Yi and said, "Promise him."
Mi Yang's decision made Wu Yi, Fa Miao and Lu Yi present all look at him in surprise.
At first, Wu Yi had the courage to remind him softly: "Wei's troops are numerous and powerful. If other troops try to lure the enemy, they may be self-defeating if they fail to take precautions."
Are the three people here knowledgeable about the art of war?
They knew that the reason why Mi Yang agreed to Cao Hong's plan was because he wanted to be the hunting leg hidden behind the oriole.
Is Mi Yang using a trick to lure the enemy?
But the reason why Hunting Legs is confident that he can hit the oriole flying high in the sky with one strike is because he has sharp slingshots in his legs.
Similarly, the reason why Cao Hong thought that this strategy was safe was because he thought he had more troops.
If Wu Yi didn't follow his plan, then Wu Yi would naturally pretend to surrender.
But if Wu Yi followed his plan, would Wu Yi really surrender or pretend to surrender? Once the gate of Yangping Pass was opened, with the Wei army's overwhelming numbers, couldn't they attack Nadong by force?
Come?
That was the biggest reason why Cao Hong was willing to take risks.
Cao Hong's thoughts could not be hidden from Wu Yi and the three people present here, and the three of them had a clear understanding of their own military strength.
There are currently three thousand garrison troops stationed at Yangping Pass, and at least two thousand of those three thousand are stationed at various passes in Yangping Pass.
In other words, when the worst happened, Wu Yi relied on a thousand defenders to stand at the gate of the city to resist the fierce attack of tens of thousands of Wei troops. Such behavior would be too risky in anyone's opinion.
Of course Mi Yang understood Wu Yi's reminder, so how could he not be aware of Wu Yi's concerns.
But since he could make that decision, he would naturally have a way to deal with it.
Mi Yang looked at Wu Yi and the three people present, and expressed his thoughts.
"In the current situation, regardless of military strength, military resources, or even strategic space, other armies are in the east wind.
But his army also has two major advantages."
"One of the great advantages of his army is that currently all the counties in Hanzhong and Seeking Way are under his control, which allows his army to quickly mobilize outside Hanzhong and even between Hanzhong and Hanxing.
Defending the enemy outside the country's borders means blindly watching the enemy's forces grow in strength and constantly squeezing the living space of other armies.
Now that the enemy is very close to encircling other armies, the other armies should make full use of that advantage and quickly mobilize their armies between various places.
Constantly looking for fighter opportunities in motion, and constantly keeping the enemy in motion so that they do not know the purpose of other troops.
Now in Hanzhong, his army does not have mobile strength, but in Hanxing, he has an army of five thousand!"
The five thousand troops that Mi Yang mentioned were not the troops of Wei Yan that he had sent to garrison Hanxing before.
Hearing Mi Yang mention Wei Yan's army, even if he thought it was wrong, he couldn't move anymore.
Fa Miao stood up and bowed to Mi Yang: "I know that your Majesty intends to take advantage of this opportunity to defeat Cao Hong, but the main task of his army is to defend.
When the king asked Wei Zhenbei to lead troops to Hanxing, wasn't he worried about Sima Yi, who was always ready to make a move?
Now the movements of Sima Yi and Zhang He's army are unknown. If the ruler rashly withdraws Wei Yan's army from Hanxing, once Sima Yi finds out the news, Hanxing may be in danger."
Fa Miao's words made Wu Yi and Lu Yi show recognition on their faces.
After all, even if Cao Hong's army needs to be dealt with, the current situation in Liangzhou is really not suitable for demolishing the east wall to make up for the west wall.
Fa Miao's suggestion did not make Mi Yang hesitate, but instead made him laugh.
He stood up, put his legs on his back, walked to Fa Miao and said, "I know one thing but not the other."
"He just said that his army has two advantages. The first is geographical advantage. What about the second?
Secondly, other troops are not truly alone.
It is true that the Yizhou army is on an expedition to Nanzhong, but does it mean that these huge men only belong to Yizhou and Liangzhou?"
Speaking of that, Mi Yang's face showed a confident look.
"Sima Yi served as the commander-in-chief of Jingzhou, and he was the commander-in-chief of the military in Jingzhou. If there was an opportunity, he would of course raise troops to attack Hanxing.
But what if Wancheng, his own base, is in danger?
Yangpingguan, Nanzheng, Xicheng, and Xiangyang are connected by the Han River, so the transportation is very convenient. While sending messengers to Xicheng, he will also send messengers to Xiangyang to contact the generals of cavalry.
When Wen Chang led his army to leave Xicheng, he asked General Chariot and Cavalry to lead his troops northward and send out news that he wanted to attack Wancheng.
Once Sima Yi gets the news, will he dare to lead an expedition without restraint?"
"He doesn't dare!"
Mi Yang's reputation has already been deeply rooted in the hearts of Wu Yi and the others. Based on his past achievements in Lidong, his judgments are naturally convincing.
Looking at the confident Mi Yang, Fa Miao and Lu Yi's eyes sparkled.
When Wu Yi saw that side of Mi Yang exposed, he was deeply shocked.
After being shocked, Wu Yi finally understood something in his heart.
The Mi Yang that Wu Yi knew in the past was not the Xia Yue Zhiyang who was good at political struggle and good at discerning people's hearts.
That is an extraordinary talent, but in troubled times where famous generals emerge in large numbers, that kind of talent is not enough to establish a huge personal prestige.
But after Mingyue met Mi Yang for the first time to explain Wai Xin's military strategy, Mi Yang exuded that kind of powerful aura from the outside to the outside when explaining the military strategy, that kind of power that holds everything in the palm of his hand.
Confident, even Wu Yi, a long-time general, couldn't help but feel surrender in his heart.
Is that the real reason why Mi Yangke is so favored by Liu Bei and why he is so supported by tens of thousands of troops!
What is a champion who is the best among all armies, and what is a red deer of Han Dynasty who is radiant and untouchable?
Wu Yi thought he would finally see it tomorrow.
Wu Yi, who was greatly shocked, unconsciously bowed to Mi Yang by mistake.
When Mi Yang saw that Wu Yi and others no longer had any objections, he turned back to his seat and began to write his own handwriting order.
Is there any basis for Mi Yang's conclusion that Sima Yi would not send troops to attack Hanxing County when Wancheng was in danger?
This basis is not Sima Yi's true nature.
Sima Yi is doing so well in front of Cao Pi now, but he hides it from Mi Yang, who is a later generation.
Sima Yi was a very selfish person, and he was Zhuge Liang who only thought about the country.
The outcome of sending troops to attack Hanxing is still unknown, but once his army leaves Wancheng, will Zhang Fei be able to attack Dongwan City?
Even if Sima Yi succeeded in taking Xingjun in the Eastern Han Dynasty at the same time that Zhang Fei attacked Dongwan City, so what?
As a defensive line to defend Luoyang, Wancheng is as important as any of the ten Hanxing counties.
When the chips for risk are good, Sima Yi naturally knows how to choose with his intelligence.
Mi Yang quickly wrote two autographed letters, and then he quickly handed them into Fa Miao's lap.
"Send his two letters to Xicheng and Xiangyang as quickly as possible."
Fa Miao also knew the importance of that matter. After nodding at Mi Yang with a solemn expression on his face, he strode out of Da Zhang Quan with two letters from Mi Yang.
After Fa Miao left, Mi Yang looked at Wu Yi and told him by mistake: "Delay Cao Hong with your words for a few more months.
Just ask me to guarantee that before Wenchang’s army arrives, Cao Hong’s army has not yet arrived. What happened in the battle of Bu Sheng? I will not be the first to take credit for that battle in the coming months!”
After hearing Mi Yang's words, Wu Yi's face straightened.
He bowed deeply to Mi Yang, and then slowly exited the big swollen dog.
Wu Yi was not as capable as Mi Yang, who stood on the overall situation and made decisive decisions to coordinate several battlefields, but when it came to how to argue with the envoys who wanted to surrender, he was very good at it.
After Fa Miao and Wu Yi both left the tent, Lu Yi, who was left alone in the east, asked the last question in his mind.
"Cao Zhen's army left Luo Valley a few months ago. The movements of that army are still unknown. If the other army blocks the way and seeks for a way, can General Zhenbei come to Yangping Pass safely?"
Lu Yi's question made Mi Yang look at Lu Yi in surprise.
If Deng Ai were here and he raised that question, Mi Yang would not be surprised.
It seems that Lu Yibian was a person who was good at political strategy. I didn't expect that he also had such insights in military affairs.
Mi Yang didn't know if, as the saying goes, people are divided into groups, Lu Yi, who lived in history, lived in the heart of Yizhou to handle political affairs. Of course, he had no chance to show off his military talents.
And even if Lu Yi has some military talent, without experiencing a war environment, any talent will always be just a talent and will not be transformed into skills.
But Lu Yi's life trajectory in the Ming Dynasty has undergone tremendous changes.
Every month he stayed with Mi Yang, his lord with great military exploits, he gradually began to gain enlightenment in the military field, which was considered normal.
Mi Yang had just considered Lu Yi's question.
After thinking about it, Mi Yang asked whether he was wrong about Lu Yi and replied: "He believes in him."
In war, there are risks. If you want to win, you must not be afraid of taking risks.
No general in the East has the same attitude.
But the biggest difference between a general and a handsome man is that when the general faces the wrong risk, he will one-sidedly think about taking advantage of the situation.
But when the commander of an army faces a risk, he will use a global perspective, strategic planning, and overall reasonable deployment of human resources to virtually eliminate that risk.
Just as Mi Yang trusted Ma Chao, Mi Yang now trusts Wei Yan.
Who said that there were no generals in the late Jihan period, and didn’t Wei Yan deny that?
Mi Yang knew that even if Cao Zhen wanted to use a large army to blockade Hanzhong to seek Taoism, it would take several months for the Wei army to completely accomplish this.
The defense line deployed months ago must have big loopholes.
If a few simple blockades could stop the only Wanhu Hou during Zhuge Liang's time in power, then Mi Yang would be in vain.
There is no weak general among strong commanders. Mi Yang didn't like Wei Yan's character, but he never doubted his ability.
Let's attack, Wei Wenchang.
Just as Mi Yang had judged, there was the existence of the Han River, and the messenger who set off from Yangping Pass soon arrived at the Han army camp in Xicheng.
The seat of Xing County in Han Dynasty was not in Xicheng, but in Yong.
However, because there was a waterway between Xicheng and Wancheng that could carry the army, Wei Yan had previously followed Mi Yang's instructions and stationed his army outside Xicheng.
If you think about it carefully, several months have passed since Mi Yang's instruction.
Wei Yan also led 5,000 elite Liangzhou troops and waited in red for several months in Xicheng.
At the beginning, even if Sima Yi's army did not take any action, Wei Yan knew in his heart the seriousness of his mission, so Wei Yan was very motivated.
Could it be that as time went by, especially after reports of enemy battles came from various parts of Hanzhong, and things were always peaceful on our own side, Wei Yan began to be unable to walk any further.
Ma Chao defeated the Wei army twice in a row. Although it was not a small victory, it also boosted the morale of the army.
Although Wu Yi and Mi Yang have not yet engaged the enemy in battle, at least their enemies have appeared, and they expect that there will be battle reports soon.
Can you do it yourself?
Not a hair on the enemy's face was seen.
Is it possible that he just wants to be like before, quietly watching the friendly troops continue to fight bloody battles to make meritorious deeds, and then he misses the great opportunity to make meritorious deeds?
When he thought of that, Wei Yan felt as anxious as if there were countless ants crawling around him.
Wei Yan had several times wanted to persuade Mi Yang to transfer him to the front line. The best thing would be to swap him with Wu Yi for the eastern defense area.
But intimidated by Mi Yang's majesty, Wei Yan never gave away the book in his lap.
Just as Wei Yan became more and more anxious and begged Bu Qin for everything, he learned of the arrival of Mi Yang's messenger.
After hearing the news, Wei Yan happily scratched his beard several times.
He didn't believe the news that he was not allowed to fight that time.
With excitement in his heart, Wei Yan quickly received the messenger sent by Mi Yang and got Mi Yang's letter from the messenger's leg.
Wei Yan couldn't wait to open the letter and read it.
After reading the contents of the letter, Wei Yan almost jumped for joy.
Mi Yang's letter contained quite a lot of content, but Wei Yan, who was bent on seeking war, remembered eight characters:
"Everyone in Buqin, come to Yangping's aid quickly."
For Wei Yan, those eight characters are enough.
Wei Yan didn't care about arranging for Mi Yang's envoy to rest. He hurriedly issued military orders one after another.
Wei Yan's military orders became more and more urgent, causing Didong's sergeant to complain incessantly, and Mi Yang's envoy to frown.
The messenger had to remind:
"While he was going east, some Wei troops had already begun to block the Han River. Even if there were a large number of ships in the west city, it would be difficult for the general to go against the current."
The messenger's words were full of reminders, but after Wei Yan listened to the kind reminder, he said disdainfully:
"If the enemy forces seize the enemy, he will march towards it."
Has the world forgotten who was the first governor of Hanzhong in the Ming and Han Dynasties?
Speaking of misunderstanding the topography of Hanzhong, would Wei Yan be in the east of others?
Thinking of that, Wei Yan raised his head proudly.
There is a chapter in the early morning.
