Chapter 238: Two Persuasions and Full Favor The situation has changed
After Man Zhong was captured by Yanping, the last fighting spirit of the Wei army in Wudang City had been shattered.
Knowing that the general situation had gone, they abandoned their weapons and surrendered to the city gate, kneeling on both sides of the city gate and waiting for the Han army to fall.
However, because there was no order from the main general Mi Yang, the thousands of Han troops led by Zhang Nan who piled up mounds did not rashly enter Wudang City.
They just controlled the north gate of Wudang City under Zhang Nan's orders.
At present, this is not only the case at the north gate of Wudang City, but also at several other gates of Wudang City.
Tens of thousands of Han troops were waiting for Mi Yang's next order.
Mi Yang led the guards and soon came to the north gate of Wudang.
When he came to the north gate of Wudang, he saw that on the moat that had been filled in outside the north gate, an old man was being held hostage by a man with a wound in his hand behind him.
The old man's forehead was red, and the man behind him had excitement on his face.
Mi Yang recognized at a glance that the subdued old man was full of favorites.
On the previous nest car, the general of the Wei army had identified Mi Yang as a full favor.
According to the news just received, the man in uniform should be Yanping.
When Mi Yang drove a horse to Yanping, the full pet who knew Mi Yang deliberately turned his face and did not look at Mi Yang.
And Yanping watched a young general come to him under the guards of the Han army, and he immediately guessed that the person in front of him was Mi Yang.
After guessing this, Yanping handed over the full pet that had been tied up by the five flowers to the nephew behind him to take care of.
He himself took a group of Wudang Hao clan patriarchs to bow respectfully to Mi Yang, and said with fear in his mouth:
"The foolish people pay a visit to the general."
After Yanpingkou called Mi Yang a general, the patriarchs behind him also respectfully called Mi Yang a general.
General is not an official title, General is a kind of honorific title for generals who have made great meritorious contributions.
Among these patriarchs, some of them can even be Mi Yang's grandfather at their age.
But in front of Mi Yang, they put on a look that they didn't dare to look directly at Mi Yang.
This is because of Mi Yang's prestige.
Although these patriarchs are the emperors of the soil in Wudang City, they have a very low status in the face of Mi Yang, who is now powerful in the world and holds tens of thousands of Han troops.
This is the way for ordinary wealthy families to make a living in troubled times.
After Yanping saluted himself, Mi Yang sat on his horse and looked at Yanping, and said with a smile on his face:
"I know about Lai She, Cen Peng, today."
After saying this, Mi Yang said to Yan Ping again: "You have made a contribution this time, and I will play the king of Hanzhong to express his credit for you."
After listening to Mi Yang's promise, a look of joy appeared on Yanping's face.
He worked hard to capture the full favor, one for his own interests, and the other was also an investment he made.
Now his investment is about to pay off, which makes Yanping feel extremely satisfied.
Under the satisfaction, Yanping, who was already in awe of Mi Yang, rose in his heart to be grateful to him.
Compared with the full favor, Mi Yang, whose strength and prestige are far above the full favor, is really the person who is more worthy of his service.
Because of the gratitude to Mi Yang in his heart, and in order to further please Mi Yang, Yanping wanted to step forward to lead the horse for Mi Yang and welcome Mi Yang into the city in person.
But his move was stopped by Ding Feng beside Mi Yang.
Yanping is now a dangerous person in Ding Feng's eyes, and of course he won't let Yanping get too close to Miyang.
After being stopped by Ding Feng, Yanping also understood that his actions were a little abrupt.
But after he was stopped, he didn't just step aside.
He escorted the full favor behind him to Mi Yang's horse like a treasure, and then Yanping wanted to let the full pet kneel in front of Mi Yang's horse.
But the full favor with a strong temperament has been captured by Yanping and has made him
Feeling ashamed and humiliated, how could he kneel down in front of Miyang Horse in accordance with Yanping's wish?
In the face of Yanping's press, the old body of the full pet showed great resistance, which made Yanping unable to press the full pet to the ground for a while.
Yan Ping saw that Man Chong still dared to resist at this time, and his face, which was eager to show in front of Mi Yang, flashed ruthlessly, and he raised the scabbard to smash Man Chong's calf.
Man Zhong is an old bone, if he is smashed into his calf by the scabbard, I am afraid that the injury will not be light.
Just as the scabbard in Yanping's hand was about to touch Manzhong's calf, his action was stopped by Mi Yang's loud shout.
"Stop!"
Mi Yang's loud drink made Yanping subconsciously stop the action in his hand.
Although he didn't understand why Mi Yang wanted to stop him, Yan Ping, who was now pressing all the treasures on Mi Yang's body, certainly didn't dare to disobey Mi Yang's orders.
After Mi Yang stopped Yan Ping from drinking, he motioned for Yan Ping to step aside first, and then he asked the guards to untie the ropes on Man Chong's body.
Mi Yang's actions surprised both Man Pet and Yan Ping, but Man Pet had a look of surprise on his face after being surprised.
After the guards untied the ropes on the full pet, Mi Yang jumped off the war horse and came to the front of the full pet under the escort of the guards.
The untied man felt sore, but when he saw Mi Yang coming to him, he didn't turn his head and deliberately didn't look at Mi Yang as he had just done.
This old man has quite a character.
Ding Feng saw that Man Zhong was already a defeated general and was still so rude, and anger began to appear on his face.
It's all at this time, what kind of score are you still putting on.
Ding Feng was about to step forward to scold Man Pet, but Mi Yang took the lead and took the initiative to bow to Man Pet and said:
"Manjun has suffered."
Man Zhong was born in the Gaomen clan in the north, and he has served in the Central Plains for many years, so his reputation in the world is not low.
Mi Yang, who knows the history, also knows that the last official in history is the Taiwei, and the fiefdom has reached 9,600 households, and it can be said that his fiefdom is the best among the Wei ministers.
But in the end, he had no money to spare, which is enough to show that Manzhong's personal character is quite incorruptible.
What's more, when the Han army was approaching the city, Manzhong could completely abandon the city and flee.
Even though he might be punished by Cao Pi when he returned to Luoyang, according to his prestige, his capital crime could be spared.
It's better than staying and holding on without hope.
Because of this move of Full Favor, Mi Yang admired Full Favor even more.
For such an elder, Mi Yang will feel a headache when he is an enemy and want to get rid of it quickly.
But now that Man Favor has been captured by him, Mi Yang will not hide his respect for Man Favor.
Although Man Pet didn't look at Mi Yang squarely, he could hear Mi Yang's words and tone clearly.
The prestige of Man's favor in the world is far inferior to Mi Yang.
After all, he has not yet reached the treasure land of his military exploits in Huainan.
Therefore, after hearing that Mi Yang, whose prestige was far above him, Man Pet would take the initiative to salute him and apologize to him, the gloomy face on Man Pet's face was much better.
Despite their different positions, they are also scholars.
Under this relationship, Mi Yang's courtesy made Man Pet's impression of him change.
Man Pet finally turned his head and looked at Mi Yang.
After Man Pet faced himself, Mi Yang continued to say to Man Pet: "Today, Yang is lucky to capture Manjun, if Manjun changes his map, only righteousness is followed, I will play the King of Hanzhong to protect the wealth of the monarch, and the whole monarch is honored."
In the future, Yang and Jun can fight side by side, and they will be divided into gold and stone, and their names will be poor."
In the face of Mi Yang's solicitation, there was no surprise on Manzhong's face, but there was no excitement on his face.
He just looked at Mi Yang with a scrutinizing eye and said, "If I don't follow, is it just a different head and foot, and my body and name are gone, and I will laugh for the world?"
For this question of full pet, Mi Yang did not answer.
But Man Pet continued
Said: "There is a gentleman and a virtuous family under his feet, and he is from a famous teacher's family, so he should know about the death of the gentleman."
"Didn't the original letter say 'May you become a king and die'?"
"I have received the grace of Emperor Wu, and I am already content at sixty and eight years old this year, and it is the evil of the time when my reputation is destroyed!"
Man's favored words clearly expressed his attitude.
That is to be willing to die rather than change the court to serve Liu Bei.
Under the explicit refusal of full favor, Mi Yang did not give up.
Mi Yang continued to persuade Manchu and said, "I look at the talent of the Manjun and have the style of an ancient sage. Therefore, the monarch judges talents, and the ministers still measure the master.
If you are loyal and good, you will be the king's business; After serving in the dark, the disaster of destruction will come. Survival and disgrace are always determined by this.
Now the traitor and thief Pi usurped the foundation of the Han family, the people and gods were angry, and they had no talent and no virtue, and in the end, they had to die and destroy the clan.
The martyrs do not care about themselves. The ministers of the princes are righteous. What is the difference between the monarch and the anti-Wei pure ministers?
"Poem" cloud: "The death will go to you, and it is suitable for the paradise." If you go to the state, there will be a way. Manjun need not have any doubts."
Although Mi Yang wrote a letter before saying that he wanted to fulfill the death festival of full favor, it was Mi Yang's means of attacking the heart when the two were opposed.
In the face of a talented and virtuous sage like Man Favor, if it were possible, Mi Yang would not kill Man Favor.
After all, Full Favor is different from Cao Ren, as Mi Yang said, Full Favor was originally Hanchen.
If the top three stand today, in the final analysis, it is essentially the people of China in civil war.
Mi Yang didn't want to lose too much of the outstanding talents of the Chinese nation because of the civil war.
Therefore, Mi Yang's persuasion is very sincere, not like the previous persuasion of Cao Ren, but just going through the process.
But in the face of Mi Yang's second persuasion, a look of determination still appeared on Man's face.
Full of favor thanked Mi Yang for his attention, so he bowed to Mi Yang and said, "I don't have to talk in vain, I have made up my mind."
"Let me test the sword under my foot today!"
The actions between Mi Yang and Man Chong, some of the people present were stunned.
They didn't know why the two of them, who had sworn to kill each other and were fast, began to salute each other.
In fact, this is an unspoken rule among contemporary scholars.
When each is his master, he can speak ill of each other, and he can fight to the death.
But when one side wins, then the winning side will also maintain enough respect for the losing side.
Tolerance is greatness, which is the excellent character of traditional Chinese scholars.
After Man Chong refused his persuasion for the second time, Mi Yang did not show anger on his face.
But he wasn't going to persuade him a third time.
It's only three, if he can't persuade the full favor for the third time, then the end of the full favor is not easy to say.
Keep the third time, leave some leeway between the two, and think about how to persuade the full favor in the rest of the time.
Mi Yang asked people to bring Manzhong into the camp, asked the medical officer to heal the wound on his forehead, and let everyone in the army not neglect Manzhong.
After being taken down, Mi Yang looked at Yanping who had a worried look on the side.
The reason why Yanping was apprehensive was because he saw that Mi Yang treated Man Zhong with great respect, which made him regret that he was so rude to Man Chong.
Mi Yang saw Yanping's thoughts, and what he wanted to do next needed the assistance of the wealthy families in Yanping, so Mi Yang took out the horse whip in his hand, pointed to the city gate in front of him, and said to comfort Yanping:
"I am not allowed to enter this door today."
In fact, even if there is no *** of the Yanping Hao family, Mi Yang may not be able to capture Wudang City.
So Mi Yang's praise is obviously exaggerated.
But it was Mi Yang's excesses that made the apprehension on Yanping's face disappear in an instant.
Then Mi Yang asked Yanping to lead the way with the patriarch of the Wudang Hao clan, and he ordered Zhang Wei and Zhang Baozhu, who had already arrived at the scene, to lead the Han army to enter Wudang one after another
City.
At the moment when Yanping captured Manzhong and opened the city gate, not to mention that the Wei army in the city had no heart to resist, even the major wealthy families in the city could only belong to the Han army under such facts.
Therefore, the operation of the Han army into the city was carried out very smoothly.
Under Feng Xi's arrangement, the Han army, which successively mastered the important places of Wudang City, had completely controlled the entire Wudang City.
Just when the Han army was pulling out the camp and entering the city one after another, Cao Tai and Sima Yi, who were wandering outside the Han army's camp, soon learned about it.
When they both found out about this, their faces were filled with grief.
The Han army has such a move, which means that Wudang City has been completely taken by the Han army.
Because the two thousand Wei iron cavalry wanted to attract the Han army out of the camp to fight, most of them wandered on the plain outside the northern camp of the Han army.
When the gates of Wudang City were opened, they didn't know about it.
As the Han army kept dismantling the camp and entering the city, they realized it later.
After knowing that Wudang City had been taken by Mi Yang, Cao Tai asked Sima Yi:
"Zhongda, Wudang has fallen, do we want to return to Wancheng next?"
Faced with Cao Tai's inquiry, Sima Yi replied decisively, "You can't retreat."
Sima Yi took out a map of Nanyang County, put it in front of Cao Tai and said to him:
"Wudang City was taken by Mi Yang, so his next target is likely to be Wancheng."
"And although Wancheng has a water system communication with Wudang City, there are still many cities of my Great Wei next to the water system."
"Now Your Majesty should have learned about the military situation in Nanyang County, and the Luoyang Chinese Army will come to help in the near future, and Mi Yang must know this.
In this case, he does not have time to uproot the cities of our army one by one, so his naval army cannot gallop in Nanyang County."
"If Mi Yang wants to attack Wancheng, he can only order the thief army to go north by land. Between Wudang City and Wancheng, most of them are plains, and there is no danger to rely on.
As long as the general's 2,000 cavalry troops do not withdraw, Mi Yang is worried about the safety of the grain route, and he will have scruples and cannot send a large army north. And as long as Wancheng is not lost, Nanyang will not be lost!"
Sima Yi quickly analyzed the current situation for Cao Tai.
Under Sima Yi's analysis, a look of determination appeared on Cao Tai's face.
Mi Yang had taken advantage of the situation in his favor before, making his two thousand cavalry useless, but the situation would not always be in Mi Yang's favor.
The topography of Nanyang County, the next place he can use!
