Chapter 723 Mi Yang Shackles Avoiding the Real and Attacking the Void(1/2)

Although in the parliament, Cao Xiu swore that as long as he closed the city gate tightly, they would be able to occupy an invincible position.

But it would not be accurate to say that Cao Xiu truly believed in this point.

After all, Cao Xiu was a general who was valued by Cao Cao. He may not have Cao Cao's wisdom, but he does not lack accurate judgment.

Since becoming the Grand Sima of Cao Wei, Cao Xiu has had the mentality of knowing himself and the enemy, and has conducted in-depth research on Mi Yang's past battles.

From those battle cases, he discovered that Mi Yang was a person who was very good at making surprises - this was quite similar to Fazheng back then.

What is surprising?

It just punches you in an unexpected place.

After knowing Mi Yang's military style, although Cao Xiu could not guess what Mi Yang would do next, he still had some doubts in his heart.

He did not believe that Mi Yang, who had always been good at fighting mobile warfare, would stay quietly in Xinye and finally sit back and watch Yongan's fall.

Of course, this kind of idea is more like a vague intuition.

This vague intuition made Cao Xiu feel vaguely uneasy, but it also made Cao Xiu feel a little confused, as if he was shrouded in heavy fog.

Does Mi Yang really value Yong'an that much?

Could Yongan be just a fog bomb released by Mi Yang, and his target is actually himself?

The tragic defeats in recent years have caused all the Wei generals, led by Cao Xiu, to suffer from paranoia.

Just when Cao Xiu was worried about the doubts in his heart, the Wu envoy who had just arrived brought Cao Xiu the latest news.

After hearing the report from envoy Wu, Cao Xiu couldn't help but stood up happily and asked:

"Is Shi Bao really in Yong'an City?"

Cao Xiu's joy was beyond words.

And there was a bit of disbelief in his happy tone.

Wu Shi didn't know why Cao Xiu showed such complicated emotions after learning the news.

It's just that this battle is the first time that Cao Wei and Soochow have jointly faced off against the enemy.

Since this is the first time, exchanging information is the top priority.

Faced with Cao Xiu's complicated performance, Wu Shi replied affirmatively:

"Don't worry, Da Sima, this news is absolutely true."

The four words "absolutely true" spoken by Ambassador Wu made Cao Xiu unable to control his inner joy anymore.

He first asked people to take envoy Wu down to treat him well. After envoy Wu left, Cao Xiu burst out laughing in front of Wang Ji and Wang Jun.

When Wang Jun saw Cao Xiu laughing suddenly, he asked in confusion:

"Shi Bao is in Yong'an, but Mi Yang is in Yong'an. Why is Da Sima so happy?"

After hearing Wang Jun's inquiry, Cao Xiu slowly stopped laughing. Then he looked at Wang Jun and asked:

"Do you know who Shi Bao is?"

Lithos?

Wang Jun really doesn't know much about him.

Seeing a puzzled look on Wang Jun's face, Cao Xiu told Wang Jun Shi Bao's past deeds.

After learning about Shi Bao's deeds, Wang Jun, who was quick to respond, immediately grasped the key points.

"What does Da Sima mean?"

"good."

Before Wang Jun finished speaking, Cao Xiu couldn't wait to say:

"Since Mi Thief sent Shi Bao to Yong'an, it shows how determined he is to seize Yong'an.

And because Shi Bao is in Yong'an, no matter what the future war situation is, Mi Yang will always lead his army to support Yong'an.

Otherwise, he will have broken his promise in front of the world, and he cannot bear the consequences!"

After saying the above, the smile on Cao Xiu's face became even bigger:

"What I just laughed at was Mi Yang Bai Mi Yi Shu.

He sent Shi Bao to Yong'an, which was indeed a clever move and could strengthen Han Zong's determination to defend the city to the death.

But everything has advantages and disadvantages.

By doing this, he undoubtedly put a yoke on himself.

As time went by, the shackles made him more and more out of breath, and he had to lead his army to leave Yiyang County!"

When Cao Xiu finished speaking with a smile, Wang Jun's face showed joy.

He quickly said to Cao Xiu, "If this is true, then our army may not be able to capture Yiyang in the future."

Wang Jun's words revealed the hidden thoughts in Cao Xiu's heart.

He glanced at Wang Jun with satisfaction.

But Cao Xiu was not too proud. He said:

"It is too early to recover Yiyang.

But with the information sent by Lu Xun, the doubts in Gu's heart no longer exist."

Cao Xiu previously thought that Yong'an was just a trick played by Mi Yang to cover up the truth.

But now it seems that Mi Yang's loyalty lies in Yong'an, so how could he spend too much thought on himself?

Even if there is one at the beginning, as time goes by, his thoughts will quickly disappear.

After thinking about this, Cao Xiu was in a good mood. He said to Wang Jun and Wang Ji: "Go quickly and order someone to hold a banquet. I want to have a good drink with the generals today."

When he heard Cao Xiu's words, a look of anticipation appeared on Wang Jun's face. Due to worries about the war, Cao Xiu's ban on alcohol has lasted for several days.

But Wang Ji did not.

He has a steady personality, but he vaguely feels that things are not that simple.

Because he knows that Mi Yang is not only good at taking things unexpectedly, but he is also good at taking advantage of the situation!

But Wang Ji couldn't figure out what was wrong for a while.

The fog caused by Mi Yang's silence not only covered Cao Xiu, but also the other Wei generals.

So what is Mi Yang’s purpose in weaving the fog?

...

At the end of August in the sixth year of Emperor Zhangwu of the Han Dynasty, Wei Yan and his party finally arrived in front of Mi Yang.

But this group of people did not arrive at the same time.

Among this group of people, to Mi Yang's surprise, it was Zhang He who arrived first.

Wei Yan, who was overtaken at a curve, entered the new field behind Zhang He. He was so angry that he wanted to kill Zhang He with his eyes.

Is it necessary for a reduced general to roll up like this?

But his riding skills were inferior to others, so in the end he could only silently accept this fact.

After everyone arrived in Xinye City, Mi Yang summoned them immediately.

Wei Yan, who thought that he could not move slowly, took the lead in asking Mi Yang because of his high status when he first met Mi Yang:

"Da Sima needs his ministers to lead troops to support Yong'an?

If the general calls you, I will definitely fulfill my mission."

Good guy, as soon as Wei Yan opened his mouth, he wanted to take away the biggest credit.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! As we all know, Mi Yang wants to resist the Wei army in Xinye, so the generals who lead the troops to support Yong'an will have great wartime autonomy.

In other words, as long as Wei Yan can successfully break through the siege and rush into Yong'an, then his achievements will be unique.

His reputation will even resound throughout the entire Jiangnan land.

Although Wei Yan looks rough on the outside, he is delicate on the inside.

But what Wei Yan can think of, can others not think of?

As soon as Wei Yan finished speaking, Ding Feng, Zhang Yi, and Zhou Tai all asked for orders, hoping to compete with Wei Yan.

In fact, the relationship between the two of them is usually good, but when it comes to fighting for glory, even brothers cannot give in, let alone people with different surnames and the same robe.

Mi Yang was naturally very happy to see several of his favorite generals enthusiastically asking for battle.

But the problem is.

"Who said Gu is going to send troops to support Yong'an?"

As soon as Mi Yang said these words, everyone present was stunned.

"Da Sima, this..."
