Mi Yang's purpose of sending the letter to Jiang Wei is naturally not pure.

Moreover, in order not to make Jiang Wei suspicious, his letterhead was not sent to Jiang Wei in a sneaky way.

In this case, Guo Huai, as the chief general of the First Army, it is not difficult to learn about this matter.

The commander of the enemy army suddenly wrote a letter to one of the young generals in his army, and this matter is strange no matter how you look at it.

But after Guo Huai learned about this, he did not say anything.

At present, although Cao Wei and Ji Han are enemies, the courtiers on both sides exchange letters a lot.

For example, today, Cao Wei's heavy ministers Hua Xin, Wang Lang and others often write to Zhuge Liang to express their admiration, and Zhuge Liang also replied to Hua Xin, Wang Lang and others one by one.

Not to mention between the courtiers, even Cao Pi, who has a literary and youthful illness, will sometimes write to Jiangdong and ask Zhang Zhao, a famous scholar in Jiangdong, for Mobao.

In this social atmosphere, Guo Huai, who was also born in a family, certainly has no reason to convict Jiang Wei for this.

But Guo Huai still inevitably had doubts about Mi Yang's behavior.

He didn't know about Liu Bei and Liu Feng's past, and he had heard of Ji Hanzhong's sometimes emotional behavior, but Guo Huai knew about what happened to Jiang Wei before.

Jiang Wei was able to escape from Ma Chao's hands before, completely because of Ma Chao's mercy.

At that time, Guo Huai, who learned about this incident, didn't think much about it, and felt that Ma Chao might be a love talent, and it was too arbitrary to suspect Jiang Wei of having different intentions just because of this incident.

But what about what he had heard today?

Or what about Yang Fu's previous abnormal behavior?

Yang Fu has always been known for daring to speak out, but with this kind of character, he unusually did not dissuade Cao Hong from going to Yangping Pass.

And he also coincidentally wrote to inform Cao Zhen of this matter, so that Cao Zhen was counted by Mi Yang, and the Wei army suffered heavy losses.

Any one of these three things alone will not arouse Guo Huai's suspicions.

But when these three things happened one after another recently, a speculation that did not want to believe it, but naturally generated, gradually surfaced in Guo Huai's heart.

Could there be such a coincidence?

Isn't it even greater folly to believe that there are such coincidences in the world?

Guo Huai's heart turned a thousand times, but because there was no definite evidence in his hands, he was still in the stage of some doubts.

Guo Huai has been in the army for many years, and his personality is quite straightforward, he does not want to meditate in the big tent alone, and after thinking about it, Guo Huai came to Jiang Wei's big tent.

When Guo Huai arrived, Jiang Wei had just finished writing a reply to Mi Yang.

Seeing Guo Huai's sudden arrival, Jiang Wei, who has always been smart, seemed to have noticed something abnormal, and he hurriedly got up to pay homage to Guo Huai.

After Guo Huai entered the tent, he kept his eyes on the letter on Jiang Wei's case.

After Jiang Wei saw Guo Huai's gaze, he immediately understood what Guo Huai had suddenly come for.

Jiang Wei, who is open-minded, is naturally not afraid to accept the scrutiny of Guo Huai's gaze.

Even in order to prove himself, Jiang Wei took the initiative to pick up the letters on the bookcase and handed them over to Guo Huai's hands for him to review.

Guo Huai saw that Jiang Wei was so sensible, he nodded with satisfaction, and then he immediately opened the letter and read it.

Jiang Wei handed over two letters to Guo Huai, one was a letter from Mi Yang, and the other was a reply from him to Mi Yang.

When Guo Huai carefully read the contents of the two letters, he found that there was nothing unusual in the contents.

There was no mention of military affairs in either letter, and it was a normal correspondence between celebrities and celebrities.

This made Guo Huai's doubts lower a lot.

Guo Huai pretended to be casual and handed the letter back to Jiang Wei's hands, he didn't ask Jiang Wei not to reply to Mi Yang, he just mentioned it pointedly:

"Don't you know that Mi Yang actually knows that there is another young Linhu in our army?"

Jiang Wei had similar feelings in his heart just now.

But Jiang Wei's emotion is mostly a kind of surprise.

Guo Huai's emotion, then I can't tell what it means.

Jiang Wei's eyes couldn't help but narrow after listening to Guo Huai's emotion, he wanted to open his mouth to explain something, but even with his intelligence, he didn't know how to explain it for a while.

Not to mention that Jiang Wei didn't know how to explain, even if the most famous wise man in the world stood in front of Guo Huai, I am afraid that he would not be able to guess what Mi Yang's true purpose was.

Who would have thought that Mi Yang was a traverser, and who would have thought that Mi Yang would not hesitate to degrade himself and use his own fame to drive discord in order to bring Jiang Wei under his command?

This is the truth, but no one in the world will believe it, the reason is very simple, in the eyes of the world, Jiang Wei does not have this qualification.

And in the case of not knowing the truth, didn't Mi Yang make it very clear in the letter with the corresponding reasonable explanation, why should Jiang Wei say more.

It's just Mi Yang's explanation of Jiang Weixin, Guo Huai will believe a few points, then I don't know.

After saying that emotion, Guo Huai didn't ask Jiang Wei anything more, he just mentioned Jiang Wei a few words about what he wanted to do next, and then turned around and left the big tent.

Looking at the figure of Guo Huai leaving, Jiang Wei vaguely felt an uneasy emotion in his heart.

He seemed to notice that Guo Huai's attitude towards him had changed slightly!

After Guo Huai walked out of Jiang Wei's big tent, his face suddenly turned cold.

Seeing this, Chang Diao beside him couldn't help asking, "What did the general perceive from the letter from the thief?" ”

Seeing that it was Chang Diao who asked, Guo Huai nodded with a gloomy face.

Although Chang Diao was captured by the Han army, during the period of captivity, he has been loyal and unyielding and has not surrendered to the Han army, which can be regarded as very loyal.

So after Chang Diao returned, Cao Pi not only did not embarrass him, but also praised his loyalty in public and made him Guo Huai's deputy general.

The reason why Guo Huai was able to repel Ma Chao before, Chang Diao made a great contribution in it, and after Chang Diao returned from completing the task, Guo Huai also appreciated him more and more.

Loyal and capable subordinates, no lord will not like it, in front of Chang Diao, Guo Huai did not hide his true thoughts.

Although Mi Yang's letter just now did not mention the military, Guo Huai still found some clues.

Mi Yang and Jiang Wei have never met, and the identity gap between the two is so big, why is Mi Yang's tone in the letter so enthusiastic?

Isn't that the strangest part?

If Mi Yang hadn't asked Jiang Wei for something, why would he have surrendered his identity like this!

Thinking of this, the more Guo Huai thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong-Mi Yang had never done this to him, was Jiang Wei worthy?

Seeing Guo Huai's uncertain face, Chang Diao suggested to Guo Huai: "If the general suspects Jiang Wei, it is better to directly send troops to take Jiang Wei down and punish him." ”

In Chang Diao's opinion, Guo Huai has nothing to worry about.

The chief general of the first army, he can control the life and death of the whole army in wartime, don't say whether Jiang Wei has a problem, even if he has no problem, Guo Huai wants to kill him is a matter of one sentence.

Chang Diao felt that his proposal was very reasonable, but Guo Huai shook his head cautiously after listening to his proposal.

He has a love for Jiang Wei.

Besides, it is not difficult for him to kill a Jiang Wei, but behind Jiang Wei is still Yang Fu, a feudal official of the same status as him.

If he rashly killed Jiang Wei without conclusive evidence, it would undoubtedly lead Yang Fu to his opposite.

This is not a cost-effective thing for Guo Huai.

In addition to the above two reasons, there is one most important reason.

Guo Huai faintly felt that Yang Fu also had something suspicious, if he killed Jiang Wei directly, then he would undoubtedly startle the snake.

There is no need to compare which merit is greater, whether to find out Jiang Wei's guilt or Yang Fu's guilt.

Under these three reasons, Guo Huai plans not to dispose of Jiang Wei for the time being, not only will he not dispose of it, but he will also try his best to let Jiang Wei do things within the scope of his control.

Whether it is loyalty or treachery, isn't it clear at a glance after taking office?

Guo Huai turned his head to Chang Diao and admonished: "Don't reveal today's events to anyone. ”

After hearing Guo Huai's admonition, Chang Diao nodded cautiously.

After finishing speaking, Guo Huai left Jiang Wei's tent.

What Guo Huai didn't know was that he and Jiang Wei had unknowingly fallen for Mi Yang's strategy.

Suspicion is a terrible thing.

When this kind of thing is produced in Cao Wei's treacherous political environment, the power that erupts after brewing is often unexpected.

And in order to make the suspicion produce a qualitative change, it will take time to continue to water.

In the first month of the fourth year of Han Zhangwu, due to the cold weather in recent times, there was a heavy snow in Hanzhong for several days.

This heavy snow spread widely, not only was the surrounding area of Nanzheng covered by a piece of snow, but even the Sword Pavilion, which was hundreds of miles away, was also wrapped in heavy snow.

When a heavy snow falls, even if Cao Hong frequently scolds the heavy snow, it can't change anything.

Why did Cao Hong scold at the heavy snowfall?

The reason is simple, the sudden arrival of heavy snow greatly slowed down the progress of the Wei army's construction of the barracks.

In a world of low productivity, a heavy snowfall is not a beautiful scenery, it is considered a disaster.

It was not easy for the thinly clothed Wei army to build a camp in the cold winter, and when the wind and snow covered the inside and outside of the Sword Pavilion, the even more biting cold directly crushed the bodies of many Wei soldiers.

Even without mentioning the physical fitness of the Wei army, under the condition of heavy snow for several days, the traffic conditions outside the Sword Pavilion were greatly affected.

Giant trees are indispensable for the construction of strong fortifications, and giant trees cannot be transported by human means alone, and often require the pulling of vehicles.

The road is covered with snow, so how can ordinary vehicles pass?

Under the above unfavorable objective conditions, even though Cao Hong was anxious to build the camp as soon as possible, in the end he still had no choice but to give an order to suspend the construction of the camp.

When Cao Hong's order spread throughout the three armies, unlike Cao Hong's anger, the Wei soldiers were very happy.

Asking them to do high-intensity work on a snowy day is completely killing them.

However, with the cessation of the construction of the barracks, the Wei army also had to face a rather embarrassing situation.

Because he was afraid of the narrow mountain road outside the Sword Pavilion, Cao Hongbao's plan at the beginning was to join forces.

Cao Hong's decision is not wrong, it can be regarded as a very appropriate act based on geographical advantages.

However, since it is a joint camp, in order to ensure that there are no defensive holes in the barracks that stretch for several miles, the construction of many camps must have an overall plan.

This means that while one tent is not repaired, several other tents are also in a semi-finished condition.

This is nothing in normal times, but at the moment of heavy snowfall, it has undoubtedly become a nightmare for many Wei troops.

The weather is cold, but the shelter has not yet been built, what is this called?

The grievances in the Wei army soon spread to Cao Hong's ears.

Regarding this matter, Cao Hong seemed quite worried.

In the future, he still needs these tens of thousands of troops to attack the city for him, what if they freeze to death?

So at Yang Fu's suggestion, Cao Hong could only issue another military order.

He asked the soldiers of each battalion to gather as much as possible in the camp tents that had been built, and in order to allow the vast number of Wei troops to keep out the cold, Cao Hong also deliberately released the prohibition of alcohol in the army.

In order to prevent drinking alcohol from making mistakes, there was usually a military order prohibiting alcohol in the army of the time.

This order is usually not only valid for low-level soldiers.

Because it was usually suppressed too harshly, when Cao Hong's order was issued, it immediately caused a cheer in the Wei army.

Even if many Wei soldiers knew that there would not be too much wine in their hands, and even many would be mixed with water, it would be excellent to be able to taste a little wine.

This can at least give you a hint of warmth on a cold night.

Cao Hong also gained a large number of military hearts because of this military order.

It's just that some Wei generals also saw the drawbacks of Cao Hong's order.

For example, Sun Li said to Cao Hongyan: "Drinking and making mistakes, ancient and modern are reasonable, and now the general orders the army to drink to keep out the cold, if the enemy army suddenly attacks, how should our army deal with itself?" ”

Sun Li's personality is upright and strict, and he is very unaccustomed to the bad habit of drinking in the army.

In the face of Sun Li's kind reminder, Cao Hong did not appreciate it.

"The wind and snow cover the sky, our soldiers are well fed, and they can't resist the cold, and the logistics of the thief army are not continuous, how can they dare to use troops in the snow?"

Cao Hong's first sentence refuted Sun Li's "unfounded worries".

Cao Hong's words are also reasonable, the cold weather caused by heavy snow is an indiscriminate attack on people, and the cold that the Wei army can't resist, can the Han army do it?

Besides, he had never heard of the use of troops on a snowy day.

"And how can I prepare enough wine for everyone to drink and be drunk?

Moreover, when Emperor Wu was alive, every time before the war, he would kill pigs and sheep in the army, and prepare good wine for the three armies to enjoy, so that Emperor Wu could be invincible with this good move.

Now Lone imitates the story of Emperor Wu, what is wrong! ”

What Cao Hong said was that Cao Cao did do it when he was alive, not only Cao Cao did it, but many famous generals also did similar things.

I didn't see those famous generals do this, and they were attacked by the enemy and suffered a great defeat.

How many people are there in the Han army?

Seeing Cao Hong move out of Cao Cao, Sun Li could only close his mouth in the end.

Just when the Wei army was cheering because of Cao Hong's order, Liu Feng, who was in the Sword Pavilion, looked up at the wind and snow in the sky, and couldn't help laughing.

There are snowy nights, and you can fight with a knife!
