Chapter 305: The same horse, the inheritance continues
This oath was not made in the official capacities of Mi Yang and Wei Yan. After all, the current identities of Wei Yan and Mi Yang are not equivalent at all.
This is actually a private oath between two people, but in this world where integrity is paramount, private oaths are also very guaranteed.
At least no matter how conceited Wei Yan is, the more conceited he is, the less likely he will slap himself in the face in front of everyone.
There is nothing Mi Yang can do about this. Wei Yan's character is so bad that there is no way to change it.
However, there is no stain on Wei Yan's performance so far, and he is indeed a fierce general. It would be a pity to completely abandon such a general.
In addition, Mi Yang is also a young and energetic person.
For a talented person like Wei Yan who was both capable and difficult to control, Mi Yang felt the difficulty and at the same time had the eager idea of trying to subdue him.
Compared with Zhuge Liang's method of influencing Wei Yan with virtue in history, Mi Yang planned to adopt another method of training Wei Yan.
That is to use Wei Yan's pride to defeat his pride.
The most important thing is that Mi Yang is very confident in this bet.
On the surface, this bet seems fair to Wei Yan, as it is a bet based on the two people's different judgments.
Well, that's how it seems to Wei Yan.
But let’s not mention Mi Yang’s understanding of Guan Yu. Before the war, Guan Yu secretly summoned Zhang Fei and Mi Yang for a private meeting...
Even Ma Chao was not qualified to attend that private meeting, and Wei Yan certainly didn't know about it either.
In that private meeting, Guan Yu revealed his true feelings in front of the two people he trusted most: once the war was won, Fancheng would be captured immediately.
Because of this, Zhang Fei immediately suggested to Guan Yu to send troops to capture Fancheng after meeting up with Guan Yu.
So in Wei Yan's opinion, it was a fair bet, but Mi Yang was actually the winner from the beginning.
Although this is somewhat unfair to Wei Yan, there are only things that can be done and things that cannot be done, so there is no absolute fairness.
At least Mi Yang's move was beneficial to himself, Wei Yan, and the big man who lacked talents.
And the moment Guan Yu appeared, it was obvious that Wei Yan had lost the bet.
Therefore, Wei Yan's face clearly showed a look of defeat, and Deng Ai, who was beside Wei Yan, almost laughed out loud when he saw Wei Yan's face.
Wei Yan's time with Mi Yang was still too short, and he didn't know what Mi Yang's character was like.
Although Mi Yang is good at using strange things, he must carefully consider every time he devises a strange plan, and he will also take measures to deal with the consequences if the strange plan fails.
Taking action after making a decision is the best portrayal of Mi Yang's character.
For such a person, once he bets with someone with full confidence, the probability of that person winning the bet is very low.
It's just that Deng Ai saw through it but didn't say anything.
He understood Mi Yang's hard work. If he didn't value Wei Yan, with Mi Yang's current status, there would be no need for him to make this bet.
Deng Ai would also be naturally close to the people Mi Yang valued.
Of course Wei Yan didn't know what Deng Ai was thinking, and he was completely confused now.
Will he be as obedient to Mi Yang as he is to serve Liu Bei from now on?
If Wei Yan had thought of this in the past, he would definitely feel extremely aggrieved.
But now that the bet is in front of him, Wei Yan can be considered a real man. Under the constraints of the oath, Wei Yan will certainly not change his mind.
Because of this, his face became darker and darker.
I know it can't be changed.
In fact, from Wei Yan's perspective, the reason why he had just bet with Mi Yang was because he was confident in his own judgment.
It's also because he has a deeper understanding of Mi Yang since he followed Mi Yang during this period of time.
Wei Yan's IQ is not low. He may not be able to grasp Mi Yang's character, but he has seen Mi Yang's many ingenious schemes to help the Han army succeed during this period.
Especially in the battle just now, Wei Yan saw that Mi Yang was not just a wise general who would sit in the tent and play tricks.
When the enemy is strong and we are weak, and when the army needs him, Mi Yang is also an outstanding general who never retreats and steps forward.
If Mi Yang had not gone into battle to kill the enemy in person, Mi Yang's 10,000 Han troops might not have been able to defend Ma Chao's reinforcements due to the Wei army's brave combat effectiveness and numerical superiority.
This alone made Wei Yan's anger at Mi Yang climbing over him a lot less.
It also gave Wei Yan a deeper understanding of why Mi Yang achieved his current status.
Only with this understanding did Wei Yan give Mi Yang a chance to gamble with him.
It's just that even though Mi Yang, Deng Ai, and Wei Yan have different thoughts, the final outcome should be acceptable to all three of them.
Facing Mi Yang's words "What do you think?", although Wei Yan planned to keep his promise and try not to disobey Mi Yang in the future.
But because of his personality, he still couldn't say the words "General Zuo is wise" like others, so he could only snort and look away without saying anything.
Wei Yan's reaction made Mi Yang smile even more.
Such a long character!
But it doesn't matter, as long as you become mine, I will protect you from now on.
After making up his mind, Mi Yang took Wei Yan and Deng Ai and quickly headed towards Guan Yu's location.
At this time, Guan Yu also saw Mi Yang's figure, and a proud look appeared on his face.
He rode his horse high over the suspension bridge and headed straight for Mi Yang.
Under the fluttering blood-red cloaks, a pair of father-in-law and father-in-law who were walking towards each other had already arrived in front of each other.
After arriving at Guan Yu's side, Mi Yang took the initiative to bow to Guan Yu and said, "The gates of Fancheng have been opened. I respectfully welcome the general and his troops to enter the city."
When Mi Yang saw Guan Yu's figure, he also saw the figures of Zhang Fei and Ma Chao, plus the nearly ten thousand Han troops behind them.
With this configuration, of course it's time to head straight into the city.
Mi Yang's words made Guan Yu, who was sitting on the horse, burst into laughter.
When Mi Yang stood in front of Guan Yu, Guan Yu could clearly see the whole body of Mi Yang.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In Guan Yu's sight, the bright light armor on Mi Yang's body had been covered up by the blood all over his body.
Even with the excellent protection of Mingguang Armor, Mi Yang's arm was injured in the previous battle.
A bloody cotton cloth was wrapped around the wound on Mi Yang's arm. Looking at the bloody cotton cloth, Guan Yu's face showed a look of love.
The Han army was able to achieve a great victory in today's battle, and there were many heroes.
And Mi Yang was able to keenly judge his intentions while the battle was going on, and was willing to use herself as bait.
With 10,000 Han troops resisting the attack of 20,000 Wei troops, it provided an excellent objective environment for his subsequent command. Mi Yang was indispensable for this alone.
Because if Mi Yang cannot withstand the fierce attack of 20,000 Wei troops, then it is very likely that the Han army will be defeated today.
Mi Yang's agility and bravery filled Guan Yu's heart with pride.
This is the successor he values, this is the son-in-law he personally chooses.
With the example of Mi Yang, who would dare to say that he did not know how to recognize people a hundred years later?
The love for Mi Yang and the pride in his heart made Guan Yu feel very good at this moment.
He asked with a whip and smiled at Mi Yang: "My lord, is this city your New Year's gift to me?"
Once they were monarchs and ministers, now they are Weng's son-in-law. Guan Yu and Mi Yang naturally have some tacit understanding that others don't know about.
Facing Guan Yu's question with a smile, Mi Yang smiled and replied: "Yibei is poor and has no generous gifts. I can only take the enemy's Fancheng to comfort my sincerity."
After listening to Mi Yang's answer, Guan Yu stroked his beard and laughed with satisfaction.
A vital strategic city, in Mi Yang's eyes, is just a New Year's gift.
Guan Yu felt that Mi Yang was quite like him because of his unintentional heroic words.
In a good mood, Guan Yu stretched out the riding crop in his hand towards Mi Yang's eyes.
Mi Yang was slightly startled by Guan Yu's move.
But he soon understood the meaning of Guan Yu's move.
Mi Yang stretched out his hand to hold the riding whip handed over by Guan Yu, and then using the riding whip as a medium, Mi Yang relied on Guan Yu's arm strength to leap onto Guan Yu's horse.
When Mi Yang's body fell on the horse, Guan Yu said to Mi Yang:
"Today's glory, Zi Sheng should share it with me."
After finishing speaking, Guan Yu took the initiative to drive his horses towards Fancheng.
At this time, more than ten thousand Han troops behind Guan Yu had also crossed the suspension bridge one after another. Under the leadership of Zhang Fei and Ma Chao, they followed Guan Yu closely and walked towards Fancheng.
Clearing the way in front of Guan Yu were the three thousand Han troops who had just guarded the south gate of Fan City.
They were full of excitement at this time. Under the leadership of Wei Yan and Deng Ai, they divided into two columns and walked in front of Guan Yu's dragon colt, walking step by step towards the deep depths of Fancheng.
Even though it was unclear whether there would be an ambush on the road ahead, they had nothing to fear as they had a powerful general behind them.
When Guan Yu was about to enter the gate of Fan City on horseback, he raised his head and glanced at the city plaque above his head.
Back then, he stood under this city plaque and led his army to retreat with a feeling of helplessness and regret.
It’s obviously just a little bit off!
Back then, the only distance between him and his ambition was this city plaque.
But unfortunately, it was such a small distance that he could not cross back then, and it left him with an insurmountable regret.
His mood at that time was difficult for others to understand.
But many years later, when he stood under the city plaque with the word "Fancheng" written on it again, the city gate in front of him was already open.
He could finally step into Fancheng with his head held high and his chest held high with the pride of a winner.
This made Guan Yu feel that a missing corner in his heart was instantly filled.
He could finally let out the breath he had been holding in his heart for the past two years.
Tens of thousands of Han troops entered the city in an orderly manner without issuing any slogans, but it could be seen from their firm footsteps that they were filled with pride at this time.
As tens of thousands of Han troops marched deeper into Fancheng, the sounds of more than ten thousand treading on the ground and the collision of armor scales mixed together to form the unique and high-pitched victory horn of the Han army.
The sound of the horn slowly covered the sky above the entire Fancheng.
This is the trumpet sound of victory for the Han army and a silent declaration of the Han army.
From today on, Fancheng returns to the embrace of the Han Dynasty.
When tens of thousands of Han troops had completely entered Fancheng, although there were no people on both sides of the streets in Fancheng.
But among the houses on both sides of the street, there were still many pairs of eyes quietly looking at the tens of thousands of Han soldiers who were covered in blood but were full of energy.
And in the end, tens of thousands of pairs of eyes were focused on the pair of father-in-law and son-in-law riding horses in the middle of the army.
The flags flying next to Guan Yu's horse let the people in Fan City know the identities of the father-in-law and his father-in-law.
After knowing the identities of Guan Yu and Mi Yang, the eyes of the people in Fancheng showed great awe.
After the awe flashed in their eyes, the eyes of tens of thousands of people showed surprise and confusion.
It turns out that the two famous generals who were so famous in the past did not have four eyes and two mouths as in the legend, at least they looked the same in appearance.
It is normal for the people in Fancheng to have such a reaction. Among the famous generals currently surviving in the Han Dynasty, who can compare with Guan Yu and Mi Yang in terms of prestige in Jingzhou alone?
Mi Yang didn't know the inner reactions of the people in Fancheng, but he was sitting in front of Guan Yu, but he keenly felt the changes in Guan Yu's body.
As he went deeper and deeper into Fancheng, Mi Yang felt that the gasping from Guan Yu's nose behind him was getting louder and heavier inadvertently.
Guan Yu's body, which was straight at the beginning, gradually moved closer to his back.
Sensing the changes in Guan Yu's body, Mi Yang was about to turn his head to observe Guan Yu's expression, but his move was stopped by Guan Yu's soft drink.
"Thousands of people are watching, and you can't look back."
As a peerless military general, Guan Yu had keen senses.
In his senses, he noticed that many people were watching him and Mi Yang everywhere in Fancheng.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! So Guan Yu knew that he and Mi Yang must not behave differently at this time, otherwise it may cause bad rumors and disturb the people in Fancheng.
human heart.
But when Guan Yu said these words, although there was nothing strange on Mi Yang's face, worry appeared deep in his heart.
Because he heard the weakness in Guan Yu's words.
Guan Yu's reaction proved that Guan Yu's condition was beginning to relapse.
Mi Yang's prediction was not wrong.
The illness in Guan Yu's body has always existed. He had been relying on the secret medicine left by Hua Tuo and a strong obsession in his heart to hold on.
In other words, the secret medicine left by Hua Tuo and the powerful obsession in his heart are currently the two pillars supporting Guan Yu's body.
Both pillars are indispensable.
As the Han army won today's battle and Fancheng was captured by the Han army, the strong obsession in Guan Yu's heart was quickly dissipating.
Under this situation, Guan Yu began to feel that the symptoms in his body were beginning to show signs of attack again.
It's just that the secret medicine left by Hua Tuo is there, so the illness in Guan Yu's body will not suddenly cause Guan Yu to faint.
But despite this, Guan Yu's body functions also began to decline rapidly.
Guan Yu knows his own body best.
He knew that the day he had anticipated would eventually come.
When he felt his body functions gradually declining, Guan Yu handed the reins he was holding into Mi Yang's hands and whispered in Mi Yang's ear:
"Now the power of the Han Dynasty is like this horse between you and me. It is high-spirited and powerful, and has the confidence to move forward."
"Perhaps the person who controls the horse will be different in the future, but promise me you won't let this horse stop in the future.
You have to drive it forward, so that the great man can have the possibility of revival."
Guan Yu's tone became lower and lower, but his tone was very firm.
Because what he is teaching Mi Yang now is what inheritance is.
