More than ten days have passed since that day that will surely go down in history.

For more than ten days, the surging Han River has been constantly clamouring in the vast plains outside Nanzheng City, as if guided by someone to cleanse all the filth in heaven and earth.

It was only recently that the Han water outside Nanzheng City gradually receded, which gave Wei Yan, Zhou Tai, Deng Ai and others the opportunity to come to Nanzheng City in person to repay Mi Yang.

But at today's Resurrection Council, the whole venue seemed very quiet.

This stems from the fact that the large and small generals present at the meeting are all looking at Mi Yang who is sitting at the top with a god-like gaze.

Even in the later generations of advanced technology, human beings are in awe of fires and floods, let alone the present?

Since ancient times, although there has been no shortage of famous generals who have defeated the enemy with the help of the power of heaven and earth, often those famous generals will not only achieve such a feat, but also make themselves a layer of mystery in the eyes of the world.

For example, Guan Yu who flooded the Seventh Army a few years ago.

The results of the Seventh Army of Flooding cannot be compared with the Hanzhong War.

But Guan Yu was able to shock China with this battle, and even after his death, his legend often circulated among the people.

In addition to Guan Yu's unparalleled quality of loyalty and righteousness, the biggest reason is the flooding of the Seventh Army, which is a great victory fought by Guan Yu with the help of the power of heaven and earth.

You must know that the reason why the Son of Heaven is sacred today stems from the Confucian idea of "Heaven and Man Induction", and the Son of Heaven is the spokesman for the heavenly gods to exercise power in the human world.

Most importantly, it is not uncommon to defeat enemy armies with the power of water in history.

However, in just a few years, the famous generals who have successively turned the tide with the help of the greatest power between the two worlds of water and fire are unprecedented and unique.

When it is passed on to future generations, I don't know how many literati and ink writers will become Mi Yang's fan brothers.

Well, just like these people in the church right now.

The eyes of everyone in awe and worship were very warm, and Mi Yang certainly didn't notice this.

After noticing, Mi Yang glanced at Lu Yi with helpless eyes.

The reason why everyone is so obedient is not only because of his exploits, but also because of the painting painted by Lu Yi.

Lu Yi, who was originally good at painting, painted the scene of the flood under the city that day, and he opened his arms and laughed on the city.

Needless to say, Lu Yi's painting skills can be described as lifelike.

And it was this lifelike portrait that, after being seen by everyone, caused them to exclaim in amazement, and deepened their awe and worship of themselves in their hearts.

Of course, it is a good thing to be revered and worshipped, but there is a degree to everything.

Finally, when the flood waters receded, it was time to discuss the next strategy of their army, and the entire hall was silent.

There was no way, Mi Yang could only cough lightly, and after dispelling some of the silence in the hall a little, he began to ask directly about some things by name.

Mi Yang first looked at Deng Ai, who had just arrived from Yizhou, and asked in a deep voice, "How many reinforcements have you brought from Yizhou this time?" ”

In the face of Mi Yang's inquiry, Deng Ai did not dare to slack off, he immediately got up and bowed to Mi Yang and replied:

"The number of troops that set out from the Sword Pavilion is forty thousand.

The army that arrived at Dingjun Mountain in advance was roughly 20,000 people. ”

After the report, Deng Ai expressed his inference again.

"If there is no mistake on the road, the remaining 20,000 troops will also reach Hanzhong by the end of this month at the latest."

After listening to Deng Ai's report, Mi Yang nodded slightly.

The 40,000 army is a large number, and the mountain road is narrow, no matter how painstakingly Zhuge Liang arranges, it is impossible to transport the 40,000 army to Dingjun Mountain at once.

However, the reinforcements have not all arrived, but it has not been long since the end of the month, which will not delay his next plan.

After inquiring about the specific situation of Deng Ai's reinforcements, Mi Yang turned his gaze to Lu Yi again, and he asked:

"Have you ever found traces of Cao Zhen and the others?"

When the Han River outside the city showed signs of receding, Mi Yang asked Lu Yi to arrange for people to clean up the battlefield.

One of the most important aspects of cleaning up the battlefield is to find the whereabouts of those important generals of the Wei army.

Death or flight, there is always a rough outcome.

After Mi Yang asked, Lu Yi immediately got up and replied:

"At present, the bodies of some Wei generals have been found, but Cao Zhen's body has not yet been found."

Hearing Lu Yi say this, Mi Yang pondered slightly for a while.

Cao Zhen's body has not yet been found, which means that Cao Zhen's whereabouts are unknown.

Of course, this does not mean that Cao Zhen must have escaped.

After all, the work of cleaning up the battlefield has only just begun, and the flood-ravaged city is littered with corpses and weapons, and it is obviously a heavy and time-consuming task to really count the results of this battle.

But even if Cao Zhen escapes, this will not surprise Mi Yang.

If Cao Zhen wanted to flood Nanzheng, he would definitely arrange for people to build ships in the camp for the subsequent siege of the city.

When Wei Yan led the army to seize the embankment, some Wei troops fled back to the camp, which shows that Cao Zhen most likely learned the news before the Han water poured into the Wei camp.

According to normal people's thoughts, when they learn the news, their first reaction must be to run, otherwise stay and wait for death?

Perhaps at first, Mi Yang wanted to put Cao Zhen to death, but when more than 100,000 Wei troops were wiped out, Mi Yang's goal changed.

Besides, if Cao Zhen is alive, it will be a benefit to Mi Yang.

Losing a wolf, but gaining a young wolf, no matter how you look at it, is a sure-fire business.

The thoughts in his heart flashed quickly, and after thinking about this, Mi Yang instructed Lu Yi:

"First thing: the corpse of the Wei army must be burned as soon as possible."

"The second thing: the dam of Hanshui should also be repaired as soon as possible."

There are often epidemics after major wars and disasters, mainly because human corpses are exposed to the wild for a long time, which will breed a lot of bacteria.

In addition, the human corpse will be eaten by many birds and animals in the wild, and the living people will capture those birds and animals for food, and the epidemic will arise under cross-infection.

The best way to prevent this is to burn all the corpses.

As for the second point, it is also a major issue related to people's livelihood.

Miyang flooded the Wei army, mainly by digging up the embankment built by the Wei army, but when the flood was vented, the original embankment along the Han River was also washed away.

Now that the flood waters outside the city are receding, the repair of the Hanshui dam must also be put on the agenda.

After all, it's still the rainy season.

If the original embankment of Hanshui is not repaired as soon as possible, it will inevitably have a bad impact on the livelihood of the people in Hanzhong.

After Lu Yi listened to Mi Yang's instructions, he also understood the importance of these two things, so he nodded solemnly.

Anyway, although the Wei army was drowned by many people, there were also many people who were captured, and they were just used as coolies to complete these two major events.

After Lu Yi sat down, Wei Yan saw that Mi Yang had already arranged the corresponding affairs of the people's livelihood, so he stood up and said to Mi Yang:

"The two thieves in Liangzhou, the public turns a blind eye?"

Wei Yan's remarks caused laughter from everyone present one after another.

Who are the two thieves in Liangzhou that Wei Yan refers to?

It's nothing more than Guo Huai and Cao Hong, who don't know about it yet.

Among the two, Cao Hong was deceived by Zhuge Liang's suspicious tactics, and now he is still bent on holding the camp and buying time for Cao Zhen to take Nanzheng.

However, Guo Huai's Wei army attacked Yinping day and night, and if he didn't send troops to help as soon as possible, he was afraid that Ma Chao and Zhang Wei would be in danger.

The reason why Wei Yan's words caused everyone present to laugh was because of his sentence of "turning a blind eye".

Mi Yang naturally will not forget the two Wei armies of Guo Huai and Cao Hong, and to defeat those two Wei armies, of course, it is necessary to send a general.

Therefore, Wei Yan's "turning a blind eye" is essentially a kind of self-recommendation.

General, you can't turn a blind eye to your subordinates' desire to fight!

Wei Yan's eagerness to fight attracted everyone's laughter, and it also aroused the desire of many generals present.

A moment after Wei Yan's words fell, more than a dozen generals in the hall stood up hulala, and also expressed their intention to fight to Mi Yang one after another.

Wei Yan looked at the competitors around him with a flushed face.

Why didn't I see you get up just now, but now you are the first to ask for battle, but you get up and grab the opportunity with yourself, this is not kind.

In the face of Wei Yan's "angry eyes", Deng Ai, Ding Feng, Ding Feng, Fu Tong and others also looked back with an inevitable look.

The great work is ahead, who cares about such a thing as cheeks!

Looking at the invisible confrontation of the eyes of the generals in the air, Mi Yang was both satisfied and a little embarrassed by the scene in front of him.

Guo Huai and Cao Hong are just two people, how can this be separated.

In the end, Mi Yang still came up with a compromise solution.

"The Lone Society personally recruited Guo Huai and Cao Hong, the two thieves."

Hearing Mi Yang say this, the generals and generals of Liangzhou stopped making eye contact with each other, and they all looked at Mi Yang in surprise.

You have made such a big contribution, how can you be embarrassed to grab such a "small credit" from us!

Although the generals were surprised, they did not dare to directly oppose it.

In the end, Wei Yan's brain turned fast, he stepped forward directly, deliberately exposed the wounded cloth tied to his hand, and then looked at Mi Yang with pleading eyes - I have shed blood and been injured for you, can you turn a blind eye?

Wei Yan's performance caused the generals to be amazed, is this okay?

But after Mi Yang saw Wei Yan's movements, he couldn't help laughing.

After laughing, Mi Yang reiterated his decision.

Mi Yang's decision shattered the expectations of Wei Yan and others, in the case of Mi Yang's personal expedition, even if they can make war exploits with the army, but how can such war exploits independently defeat the enemy army.

Looking at the disappointed looks of the generals, Mi Yang couldn't bear to dampen their enthusiasm, and explained to Wei Yan and Deng Ai:

"Lonely Fei wants to take credit, but there is another important matter to entrust to the second secretary."

Mi Yang's words re-made a strong desire appear in the eyes of Wei Yan and Deng Ai.

Mi Yang didn't need to lie to them.

Mi Yang met the longing eyes of Wei Yan and Deng Ai and said his plan.

"Lone wants to let the two of them each lead 5,000 soldiers and horses, go to Luogu and Xiegukou respectively, and take these two fortresses for Lone."

Mi Yang's words made Wei Yan and Deng Ai realize that this matter was not simple.

As we all know, when Cao Zhen's army entered Hanzhong, it mainly passed through the two passages of Luogu and Xiegu.

After leading the troops into Hanzhong, the Wei army built fortresses at Luogu and Xiegukou respectively to hoard a large amount of military rations transported from Chang'an.

Thinking of this, Deng Ai couldn't help but ask: "The general wants to seize the thief army's grain storage?" ”

Deng Ai is shrewd, and his calculations are not wrong, but he is only half right.

Mi Yang smiled and asked people to carry a new map, and when the wide map was hung behind Mi Yang, everyone in the hall couldn't help but breathe quickly.

Even many people involuntarily stood up.

Everyone had this reaction, and it was at this moment that they seemed to be peeking at what the blueprint hegemony in Mi Yang's heart was.

What hangs behind Mi Yang is not a map of Liangzhou, but a brand new map of Guanzhong!

Mi Yang suddenly ordered someone to hang up the map of Guanzhong, isn't his intention obvious?

Northern expedition!

Mi Yang's next words confirmed the conjecture in everyone's hearts.

"Cao Zhen is defeated, Guo Huai and Cao Hong are just dry bones in the grave, and the defeat of the two is also a matter of time, so there is nothing to fear.

But His Majesty and the Prime Minister poured all their efforts into the state and summoned tens of thousands of troops for Lone, could it be that Lone only repaid His Majesty and the Prime Minister with the results of defending Liangzhou?

After our army defeated Guo Huai and Cao Hong's two armies, there was no one in the field elite of the Wei army in Guanzhong, and at this time, it was the time when our army launched a large-scale northern expedition to recover the country.

It is advisable to chase the poor bravely, and not to sell the name of the overlord! ”

When he said the last sentence, Mi Yang slammed the general's seal in his hand on the case in front of him.

The gold seal collided with the bookcase, making a crisp loud sound, and this loud sound was like a morning bell and a dusk drum, and the hearts of everyone in the hall trembled incessantly.

The eight words of the Northern Expedition and the recovery of the land are like the best nourishment in the world, which completely stimulates the ambition in everyone's hearts.

This is what a big man should do!

Under the strong excitement in the heart, everyone in the hall enthusiastically paid homage to Mi Yang.

And at this moment, Wei Yan and Deng Ai also knew how important their task was.

Yizhou is short of grain, but if they can capture the two grain and grass bases of the Wei army, then the biggest shortcoming of the Han army will be made up in an instant.

At that time, the Northern Expedition was definitely not a loud slogan, but something that could be put into immediate action.

At a time when anyone wants to sweep away the thief army in the territory, Mi Yang has already thought of the level of the Northern Expedition, which is the pattern that a general of the Han Dynasty should have.

Wei Yan and Deng Ai were no longer reluctant in their hearts, and after receiving Mi Yang's general order, they went to Qi Qi with joy under the envious gaze of the generals.

After Wei Yan and Deng Ai left, Mi Yang arranged all the matters for the expedition in a few days, and then ordered the generals to retreat.

However, Fa Miao, Lu Yi, and Zhou Tai spontaneously stayed.

The three of them stayed behind to compete for the matter of writing a war report for Mi Yang.

The water irrigated dozens of miles of Wei army joint camp, and more than 100,000 Wei troops were wiped out while talking and laughing, what a great victory this was.

And what a glory it is to personally write a battle report for this great victory that will go down in history?

As civil ministers, although they can't compete for the merits on the battlefield, they have to fight for the glory under the battlefield no matter what.

In order to win this glory, Fa Miao and Lu Yi each moved out of their identities as separate drivers and governors, wanting to prove the legitimacy of their writing war reports.

As for the state Tai, although his status is not as high as theirs, he used the fact that he personally broke the embankment as a bargaining chip to fight for it, and it was difficult to distinguish the winner for a while when the three of them did not give in to each other.

Mi Yang looked at the three Aiqing who were competing with each other, and he had some headaches, so he could only ask the three of them to write a battle report and submit it, and then choose the best one.

Later, Mi Yang chose the best battle report written by the three, and then ordered someone to copy multiple copies and send them out quickly at a speed of 100 miles.

A few days later:

Wan Jun Han water is the guide of the gods, and a feather reports the surprise of the world!
