Chapter 54 If you don’t go, who will? (Please read and vote for me)
Sitting opposite Mi Yang was Mi Yang's good friend Wang Hong.
Wang Hong, whose courtesy name is Zina, was born in Wancheng, Nanyang.
Nanyang County is under the rule of Cao Cao. Wang Hong, who was originally from Wancheng, may never have any communication with Mi Yang in his life.
But something happened last year that changed Wang Hong's life trajectory.
In the 23rd year of Jian'an, in order to mobilize a large amount of manpower and material resources to support the Hanzhong War, Cao Cao recruited a large number of corvees in Nanyang.
Because the people in Nanyang area could not bear the heavy hardship of corvee service, they revolted and occupied Wancheng under the leadership of Wancheng guards Hou Yin and Wei Kai.
Soon after, Cao Ren personally led the troops to put down the rebellion in Wancheng.
But in order to deter other people who resisted Cao Cao's rule, Cao Ren carried out a massacre in Wancheng.
During that massacre, Wang Hong managed to escape the disaster with the help of his family.
But his family members all died trying to protect him.
From then on, Wang Hong, whose whole family was killed by the Wei army, regarded Cao Cao as his enemy. After that, he resolutely went south to defect to Guan Yu.
At that time, Guan Yu was planning the Northern Expedition, so he didn't pay much attention to such a little-known scholar coming to join him.
He just appointed Wang Hong as a junior assistant under Mi Fang.
Mi Yang, who was new to Jingzhou at that time, met Wang Hong by chance and gradually became good friends with him during their subsequent interactions.
Mi Yang knew from the original memory that Wang Hong could not be said to be a great talent in the world, but he could also be regarded as a scholar.
Most of the scholars at that time were good at speaking because of their knowledge.
And what Mi Yang lacks most now is such a person.
When he fell asleep, a pillow was brought to him, and Mi Yang felt very happy at this time.
Looking at his pillow, Mi Yang asked what he was most concerned about.
Hearing Mi Yang mention Wuxi Man, Wang Hong thought about it seriously and responded to Mi Yang with some uncertainty,
"What Zi Sheng is talking about is the barbarians in Wuling County?"
Seeing that Wang Hong had heard about Wuxi Man, Mi Yang rubbed her hands excitedly, and he immediately replied, "Of course it is."
Wuxi Man is also known as Wuling Man.
According to records in many ancient documents such as "Shui Jing Zhu", Wuxi refers to several main tributaries in the upper reaches of Yuanshui River.
The five streams are Xiongxi, Xixi, Wuxi, Youxi and Chenxi.
These five streams are mainly located in Wuling County. Most of the barbarians in Wuling County live on these five streams, so they were called Wuxi Barbarians at the time.
Nanyang and Wuling originally belonged to the same state, so Wang Hong had also heard of the existence of Wuxi barbarians.
"According to Hong's knowledge, the Wuling barbarians have lived in Wuling County for generations, and their leader is named Samoko.
Although they are barbarians, Samoko has taken the initiative to express his surrender to the king since the king pacified the four counties in Jingnan.
Because of his obedience, the king never sent troops to encircle and suppress them."
"Now that Zisheng has taken the initiative to bring up this matter, could it be that he has the intention to attack them and make meritorious deeds?"
As time went by, Mi Yang rode into the police alone, and the news of regaining the police had spread to Nanjun.
Because Shiren was regarded as a traitor by Guan Yu, he was killed by Mi Yang. Not only did people at that time not think that Mi Yang was guilty of the crime, they also praised him for his wisdom and bravery, and he was able to bring order to the chaos.
Wang Hong, who had just come out of Nanjun, was already familiar with this matter.
When he first heard about this, he admired Mi Yang in his heart.
If he had not known this, Wang Hong would not have gone south to seek refuge with Mi Yang.
Now in Wang Hong's mind, Mi Yang, who was both wise and brave, took the initiative to mention the Wuxi Barbarians. Wang Hong subconsciously thought that he was going to conquer the Wuxi Barbarians and make new achievements.
Although the Wuxi barbarians have always been submissive to Liu Bei, they are still barbarians. Being able to annihilate them would be a great achievement.
Moreover, Wang Hong also knew that Mi Yangxian was not only the chief secretary of Guan Yu, but also a member of the army in Guan Yu's shogunate. He had the authority to attack the Wuxi barbarians.
But what greatly exceeded Wang Hong's expectation was that after Mi Yang knew that he had a deep understanding of Wuxi Man, Mi Yang immediately approached him and spoke almost face to face,
"No, no."
Mi Yang, who was just a short distance away, had eyes full of expectation. He said to Wang Hongyan,
"Although Samoko is a general, judging from his actions in the past, he is actually a king who is obedient to the people.
How could I use swords against such people?"
"To be honest, Sun Quan will send troops to attack our public security in the near future.
I want you, Ziya, to take your time and go south to Wuling County to serve as my envoy and recruit Samoko to lead troops to help me."
When Mi Yang said this, Wang Hong was drinking a bowl of tea soup to ward off the cold.
After he heard Mi Yang's true purpose, Wang Hong couldn't help but spit out the tea soup in his mouth because he couldn't believe that Mi Yang would say such shameless words.
The warm tea soup sprayed on the food table in front of Mi Yang. Fortunately, Mi Yang reacted very quickly and avoided it in time, otherwise he might have been disfigured.
After Wang Hong spit out the tea soup in his mouth, he coughed several times in succession.
After a while, Wang Hong finally recovered.
He pointed at Mi Yang and said, "Zi Sheng, you really dare to say that."
When friends meet again, they always exchange a few words to show their closeness.
As a result, today, when Mi Yangchu reunited with him, the first thing she did was to ask him to "send death". How could this not make Wang Hong lose his temper?
Although the Wuxi barbarians have always surrendered to Liu Bei's rule, in the past, they were also extremely vicious people who often raised troops to attack counties.
Moreover, the Han people of this era were generally discriminatory towards foreigners, believing that they were all savages who drank hair and blood and ate human flesh raw.
Now that Mi Yang suddenly asked herself to take his place and go to that extremely dangerous barbarian land, Wang Hong would certainly be frightened.
Mi Yang looked at his request and almost made Wang Hong choke to death on a bowl of tea soup. There was also a look of guilt on his face.
But now that Wang Hong has "thrown himself into a trap", Mi Yang will definitely not let him go.
"Zi Niao!"
Mi Yang looked serious and said in a heavy tone,
"According to the judgment of the former general, Sun Quan's army is about to arrive.
And I don’t hide it from Zi Chao. Currently, there are less than 6,000 troops in the public security city. If we only rely on these 6,000 troops,
Public security is in danger.
For the current plan, the only way is to seek foreign aid."
"Now that the main forces in Jingzhou are under the command of the former general, the reinforcements from Yizhou may not have set off yet.
At this time, I can only place my hope on Wuxi Man and hope that Samoko can send troops to help me defend the city."
"I also know that this trip is dangerous, so I won't force it.
If Ziya is worried about his own safety and does not want to go, I will not force him."
In terms of relationship, Wang Hong was just a good friend of Mi Yang, not a subordinate of Mi Yang, so Mi Yang did not have the right to order Wang Hong.
Without the right to give orders, Mi Yang wanted Wang Hong to go, so he could only resort to provoking the general.
Sure enough, when he heard Mi Yang say that he was worried about his own safety and was unwilling to work for him, Wang Hong's face flashed with displeasure.
But Wang Hong was not stupid. He saw that Mi Yang was deliberately provoking the general. He looked at Mi Yang and said,
"Why did Zisheng provoke me? Why did I never say that I wouldn't go through this for Zisheng?"
"If I was worried about my own safety, why should I go south to look for you!"
Wang Hong gave up being Mi Fang's assistant and chose to go south to join Mi Yang, which was a deliberate decision.
Wang Hong had a bloody feud with Cao Cao, and his purpose in life was to avenge his family.
In today's world, only Liu Bei and Cao Cao are irreconcilable.
Wang Hong knew that it was impossible to defeat Cao Cao on his own, and he had to rely on Liu Bei's strength.
He had served under Mi Fang for nearly a year, but he never had any chance to get ahead.
At this moment, Mi Yang rose up like a new star in the Public Security City and entered his field of vision.
Mi Yang's relationship with Liu Bei is unusual, and his father and uncle are Liu Bei's most trusted ministers.
Under this relationship, coupled with the abilities Mi Yang has shown during this period, Mi Yang's future prospects are bound to be limitless.
As long as Mi Yang does not die prematurely, he will definitely have a place among Liu Bei's ministers in the future.
Wang Hong felt that he was a good friend of Mi Yang, and since Mi Yang had not really taken off at this time, if he could defect to him at this time, he should gain his attention.
When Mi Yang really takes off in the future, as Mi Yang's original direct team member, the rewards he will receive will be huge.
At that time, with the help of Mi Yang's power, he, Wang Hong, could one day take revenge on Cao Cao.
In history, due to the lack of historical data, many characters of Ji Han were not recorded. Moreover, the current status of the protagonist is not high, and it is impossible to drive those who have already become famous (except Guan Ping Da Keai~).
Therefore, in order to develop the plot, the author had to create some original characters.
Hope everyone understands.
During this period of time, many people have given rewards and voted for monthly votes and recommendation votes. The author would like to thank these readers.
I will continue to work hard to come up with plots.
