Chapter 500 A clever plan to break out of the encirclement
Author: Soy Sauce Mixed History
What does Mi Yang have in mind?
It's very simple, just type it out.
Mi Yang looked at Wei Yan, who had been silent all the time. Wei Yan in the bright moon seemed particularly quiet, but the solemn expression on his face was exactly the same as the others.
When Wei Yan saw Mi Yang suddenly looking at him, he couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Did Mingyue herself say something wrong again?
But Mingyue clearly didn't shut up.
Mi Yang's words from the east quickly cleared up Wei Yan's confusion.
"Chang Wen, there is something you need me to do when you come to the east."
There was a certain calmness in Mi Yang's tone, which meant that that step had already been brewing in his heart.
At the same time, there was a hint of caution in Mi Yang's tone, indicating that that wrong step from the east would have a huge impact on the battle situation.
Mi Yang's calmness infected several confidants around him, and like Mi Yang, they all looked at Wei Yan.
Suddenly being stared at by several pairs of eager eyes, coupled with the caution in Mi Yang's tone, an ordinary person might be a little overwhelmed, but for the bold Wei Yan, he has never been a person who is afraid of getting into trouble.
Wei Yan went to Mi Yang and bowed to him: "If the general has any instructions, I will go through fire and water."
After hearing Wei Yan's promise, Mi Yang's face showed a smile.
Even Bu Nao Mi Yang had no intention of telling his inner plan in an alley, so he returned to the Prefectural Shepherd's Mansion with a few of his confidants.
After returning to the governor's mansion, Mi Yang isolated the outside of the mansion's meeting hall, leaving him and several of his confidants outside the hall.
After completing that step, Mi Yang took out a kit from his arms.
Mi Yang took out the kit from his arms and came to Wei Yan, but instead of handing the kit into Wei Yan's lap, he handed it to Zhou Tai who was standing beside him.
At the same time, he revealed a specific plan.
"In recent months, I have been ordering Ji Yang to continuously raise the towers on the city wall. In addition to helping other troops defend the city better, it also has a purpose.
The higher the towers are, the more Cao Zhen will think that I am determined to defend Nanzheng, which will make him think that his army will not escape Nanzheng easily.
Coupled with Cao Zhenqiu's plan for a water attack, this resulted in a time when the rebel army's defense outside Dongfu City was at its weakest and their mentality was at its most relaxed.
That’s an opportunity for other troops.”
Mi Yang's words made Wei Yan narrow his eyes.
He couldn't help but look up at Mi Yang and asked: "Does the general want to repeat his old tricks and imitate the police stories of the past?"
During the Public Security War, Mi Yang used various methods to make Sun Quan lower his guard, so he could seize the opportunity to inflict heavy losses on the Wu army through night attacks.
Mi Yang's words could easily make Wei Yan think that Mi Yang wanted to recreate that glorious moment.
But Mi Yang's words from the east rejected Wei Yan's guess.
"otherwise.
After all, Cao Zhen did not deny Sun Quan, and there must be wise men in the Wei army who could come up with a water attack strategy.
Although the rebel army Dangdong focused on the water attack and relaxed the vigilance of other armies, the lessons from the Battle of Public Security were not far away, and the other armies have always been famous for their good night attacks. Cao Zhen must have failed to take precautions against this mistake.
With Cao Zhen taking precautions, it will be difficult for his army to repeat the war of the past."
Although Mi Yang would jokingly call Cao Zhen Cao Zhen, Cao Zhen could not deny his recognition. After all, a commander like Sun Quan is rare to see in a hundred years.
Moreover, the most important reason why the Public Security War was able to achieve such great results was not the night attack that burned down the Wu army's barracks, but the fact that he led his troops to a surprise attack in the dense forest to the Public Security Port and burned the Wu army's food, grass and weapons reserves.
Judging from the battle situation in Dangdong, it is obvious that Nanzheng does not have the same terrain as the police back then.
Seeing that Mi Yang rejected his conjecture, Wei Yan couldn't help but look at Mi Yang with doubtful eyes.
What does the general want him to do?
Facing Wei Yan's doubtful gaze, Mi Yang continued: "I beg you to lead an elite army to break out of the siege from the south gate. After I break out of the siege, I will take the opportunity to cross the Han River south to Dingjun Mountain.
He will make the state minister my deputy general.
As soon as the reinforcements from Yizhou arrive, I can open the brocade bag in the leg of the state minister and give his orders to the general who commanded the army from Yizhou.
Half a month away, if the reinforcements from Yizhou have not arrived yet, I can open the brochure myself and act according to the strategy in the brocade bag."
Speaking of that, Mi Yang signaled Dongzhou Tai with his eyes.
After Zhou Tai noticed the look in Mi Yang's eyes, he realized that the matter was serious. After bowing to Mi Yang heavily, he put the bag in his lap into his arms like a treasure.
Mi Yang's plan is simple to say. He does not seek to directly defeat the Wei army while the Wei army is careless, but to take advantage of this rare opportunity to send Wei Yan and his elite troops to the east out of the city.
The reason why Mi Yang chose Wei Yan, apart from the fact that Wei Yan was currently the most attackable general in his army, was also because Wei Yan, who had been a member of Liu Bei's army, had personally participated in the surprise attack on Dingjun Mountain that year.
Among the generals in the east, Wei Yan was the one who was most unable to understand the terrain of Junshan.
When Mi Yang finished explaining his plan, not only Wei Yan, but also Fa Miao, Zhou Tai and others who had been listening could not help but look at Mi Yang with shocked eyes.
The soldiers broke out from outside the city, which was often something the defenders would only try to do at the last moment.
From Mi Yang's plan, it can be seen that even if he was not convinced, he still believed that Nanzheng had reached that moment at that time.
After knowing this, Wei Yan felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
After a long silence, Wei Yanfang said angrily: "I can protect the general and break through together."
Wei Yan's voice was very deep.
Wei Yan's meaning was very simple. If Nanzheng really arrived at that moment, and if the Wei army really relaxed their guard as Mi Yang expected, then beg him to break out, and naturally he could protect Mi Yang and escape from Nanzheng.
cage.
Mi Yang didn't expect that at that moment, Wei Yan's first thought would be whether that happened.
It seems that after being together for a long time, Wei Yancuo's senses have changed a lot.
After Wei Yan finished speaking, several confidants outside the hall, led by Fa Miao, bowed to Mi Yang and said, "What General Zhenbei said makes sense."
Obviously, when Wei Yan came up with a new way out, even if that way allowed Mi Yang to escape, Fa Miao and others were not willing to help Mi Yang.
That's not only because Mi Yang's fault with the big man is extraordinary, but also because Mi Yang's personal status in their hearts is extraordinary.
Facing everyone's advice, Mi Yang refused without hesitation.
He smiled and said: "A big man will have generals who died in battle."
Although Mi Yang was smiling, his words fell into the ears of Fa Miao and others, but they were deeply touched in their hearts.
Mi Yang's intention was clearly reflected in the wrong words he had with Ma Chao - how long will it take after he dies?
The sound is still ringing in my ears, and I see that Ma Chao is very much guarding Yinping for the Han Dynasty. As the commander-in-chief of the three armies, how can he escape in the face of the battle?
Apart from that reason, the reason why Mi Yang did not choose to break out with Wei Yan was that he believed that Nanzheng, and even the entire Liangzhou battlefield, had no chance of making a comeback.
The key to a comeback lies in whether Yizhou can send reinforcements in time.
There are currently nearly 10,000 elite soldiers outside Nanzheng City. If the nearly 10,000 elite soldiers are solely responsible for defending the city, is Mi Yang confident enough?
But will that kind of confidence gradually decrease as time goes by?
Because there was not enough food and grass outside Nanzheng City, he could hold on to Nanzheng for how long.
From the beginning, Mi Yang did not have the foundation to fight a protracted war.
Normally, Mi Yang should use offense as defense when he cannot hold on for a long time, but the terrain outside Nanzheng cannot support the implementation of many of his strategies.
If they had not fought head-on, no matter how brave and fearless the nearly 10,000 elite soldiers outside Nanzheng City were, they would not have been able to defeat the tens of thousands of Wei troops in the plains without the assistance of cavalry.
In that situation, Liangzhou's solution from the beginning to the end was to arouse a new active force, let the active force from outside the game overturn Liangzhou's chessboard that was gradually entering a dead end.
Of course, even at the bright moon, Mi Yang could not guarantee whether the Yizhou reinforcements would really appear from Dingjun Mountain.
But now it is Ji Han decades later.
At that time, the people in power at the upper levels of Ji Han would be drunk and dreaming, praying to gods and worshiping Buddha. The middle-level aristocratic families would use their privileges to continuously protect the population. The people in the east were nostalgic for Zhuge Liang's reign while suffering from oppression from all sides.
Word.
This is the era when Ji Han was the founder, or the era when Ji Han was full of ideals and vitality.
There are virtuous kings who can pacify people's hearts by selecting virtuous people and appointing virtuous people. Among them are the ministers of Wei and Chang Gong who work together to defend against foreign aggression. In the east, there are a large number of people who are willing to die for the virtues of Ji and Han.
Is this the best time for Ji Han, or the time when Ji Han is most likely to repeat the surprise attack on Dingjun Mountain?
There is no definite answer to the uncertainty of war, so Mi Yang could try his best to plan the most favorable situation for the Han army based on all the existing conditions.
After Mi Yang rejected the ministers' proposal with firm words, he turned to Wei Yan and Zhou Tai and said, "Go, good opportunities are fleeting, don't delay."
After receiving the order, Wei Yan and Zhou Tai straightened their faces, bowed heavily to Mi Yang, and left the hall without looking back.
In fact, Mi Yang and others who stayed outside the city were in danger, and when Mingyue led the army to break out, how could they not deny the danger?
Even when the Dongfeng Wei army's guard was at its most relaxed, it was impossible for the Wei army to be completely unprepared.
But what remained in Mi Yang's eyes at first was the firm backs of Wei Yan and Zhou Tai.
Seeing this, Mi Yang looked past the pillars outside the hall and towards the distant south.
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, I will defend Liangzhou to the death.
But please be sure to ask us, and please do your best!”
As the harsh sound of twisting mechanisms sounded, the heavy south gate of Nanzheng City slowly opened under the gaze of Wei Yan and Zhou Tai.
When the heavy south gate of Nanzheng City was completely opened in their sight, what they saw was the vast expanse ahead.
Don’t you know how many dangers are hidden in that vast expanse ahead?
But Wei Yan did not hesitate.
Before setting off, Wei Yan warned Zhou Tai beside him: "Follow closely."
Wei Yan, who is aloof and arrogant, reminded Zhou Tai of this, but it did not mean that he looked at Zhou Tai differently.
In fact, Mi Yang's tips lie in Zhou Tai's presence.
It doesn't matter whether Zhou Tai is in trouble or not, there should be no mistakes in Mi Yang's tips.
After hearing Wei Yan's reminder, Zhou Tai nodded.
Perhaps since he joined Mi Yang's account, he has not been responsible for anything other than civil affairs, but if he didn't have both civil and military skills, how could he have the nerve to take the initiative back then?
After a while, Wei Yan and Zhou Tai simultaneously drew out the long knives from their waists.
A moment later, the three thousand elites behind the two of them also did the same.
What's the road ahead for Bu Shen? With Mi Yang's mission, Liangzhou hopes that they will fight hard in the bright moon!
On the bright moon, Cao Zhen summoned several generals outside the big tent to discuss military matters as usual.
Cao Zhen discussed whether the flood of Nanzheng was correct or not.
The generals he summoned were also those who had participated in the Battle of Yecheng and the Battle of Dongpi.
They had seen with their own eyes how Cao Cao flooded Yecheng and Dongpi.
Experience is a very good thing. With the help of all the generals, all the preliminary work of the Wei army's flooding of Nanzheng has gone very smoothly in recent months.
During the discussion, General Zhu Lingcuo said to Cao Zhen: "General, in at least half a month, the dam for the Han River will be built."
After hearing Zhu Ling's report, Cao Zhen seemed to be in a good mood.
If you want to successfully flood Nanzheng, whether the water storage dam where the Han River flows is the top priority.
After all, compared to the Bao River, the Han River is not the main river that flooded Nanzheng.
It has to be said that although Zhu Ling was once suspected and deprived of military power by the late emperor when he was still alive, he was really a rare talent.
After learning about the situation, Cao Zhen first looked at Zhu Ling with admiration, and then looked at Wang Shuang with inquiring eyes.
In the previous specific task arrangement, Zhu Ling asked the person responsible for the first step of not flooding Nanzheng, and Wang Shuang asked the person responsible for the second step of not flooding Nanzheng.
When Wang Shuang saw Cao Zhen looking at him, he felt pressure.
Zhu Ling completed the first step so quickly, and he who was responsible for the second step could not delay the important matter.
Bite the bullet, Wang Shuang gave a one-month period.
"After one month of elimination, I can supervise the construction of four high walls to surround Nanzheng."
Wang Shuang's menstrual period was about half a month later than Zhu Ling's. Cao Zhencuo was not satisfied with that period, but he also felt that it was outside the acceptable range, so he nodded slightly.
Anyway, all in all, in at least one month, Liangzhou will be defeated by the Wei Dynasty.
Thinking of that, Cao Zhen couldn't help but be unhappy.
But just when Cao Zhen was happy, Liu Ye walked outside the tent with some hasty steps.
Seeing Liu Ye's anxious look, Cao Zhen's face dropped.
Liu Ye's behavior means that he has brought bad news.
At this moment when Ru Ming was so desperate, Cao Zhen really didn't want to hear bad news.
After listening to what Liu Ye reported, Bu Nao Cao Zhen's expression softened a lot.
Liu Ye's report is correct or not about Wei Yan's breakout of the encirclement.
After Cao Zhen heard that some elite soldiers of the Han army had broken out of the encirclement, and Mi Yang was not among them, Cao Zhen didn't pay much attention to the incident.
The sudden breakthrough of the Han army was indeed beyond Cao Zhen's expectation. Although the Han army successfully broke through due to the carelessness of the Wei army, it suffered heavy casualties due to the Wei army's pursuit.
According to Liu Ye's report, the number of Han troops who successfully broke out in the first place was about a thousand.
Moreover, the direction in which the more than a thousand Han troops were heading was towards Yangping Pass.
I think the purpose of those more than a thousand Han troops was to go to Yangping Pass to ask for help. But even if those more than a thousand Han troops mobilized all the defenders of Yangping Pass, would they have any impact on the war situation in the east?
Thousands to tens of thousands, plus our own army has fortifications and cavalry to support it, it will be a battle without any suspense.
Even if the more than a thousand Han troops had to go to Yangping Pass, it would be difficult for Cao Zhen to feel worried even if he ordered the badgers to go to the trenches.
As long as Mi Yang is in Nanzheng, Cao Zhen will always focus on Nanzheng!
"Instruct the three armies to intensify the siege of Nanzheng, and do not allow any nuclear forces to escape from the trenches again."
After giving instructions, Cao Zhen turned his attention to the engineering drawings in front of him.
And just after Wei Yan successfully led his army to break out, bursts of thunder sounded in the air outside Nanzheng.
The thunder made Wei Yan look to the sky worried, but made Cao Zhen overjoyed.
The rainy season in Hanzhong is here!
