Chapter 553: Cao Zhang is in charge, and the street pavilion is called
Mi Yang didn't know what Liu Bei expected of him in his heart, but if Mi Yang knew, he would definitely be very aggrieved for himself.
If Mi Yang didn't want to take the opportunity to capture Chang'an, it was impossible.
It's just that when tens of thousands of Wei troops surrounded the Bao Slope Road, the time that Mi Yang had been waiting for in his heart did not come.
And in the process of waiting for the opportunity, Mi Yang is very boring.
Mi Yang, who originally came from later generations, was good at having fun for himself.
However, after Sun Li experienced the last meeting, no matter how Mi Yang teased him later, he just didn't take the initiative to go out of the camp.
Sun Li is like this, not to blame Mi Yang for teasing him in the last meeting.
Sun Li will be like this, purely because he feels shameless to face Mi Yang.
When they learned that the Han army led by Mi Yang was a suspicious army, both Sun Li and Cao Zhen saw that Mi Yang was not deceived by the "suspicious strategy" at the beginning.
Mi Yang saw through Sun Li's suspicious strategy from the beginning, and the reason why he saw through the strategy but did not send troops was simply because the Han army was more weak than the Wei army at that time.
In other words, it was Mi Yang's plan to make the Wei army complacent, so that he spared no effort to mobilize reinforcements from Longxi, which gave Liu Bei an opportunity.
This shameful truth almost collapsed Sun Li's mentality.
The funniest thing is that Cao Zhen had praised Sun Li's suspicious tactics to Cao Rong in a book before.
I don't know what kind of mood Cao Rong and the Manchu Dynasty will feel when they think back to Cao Zhen's letter now.
Playing with Wei Jun is about to become Mi Yang's natural skills.
And because he knew Sun Li's shameful past, when the other Wei generals led their troops to Baochu Road, they also resolutely closed their camps.
I can't afford to provoke, I can always afford to hide.
Even Cao Zhang, who has always been fierce, is the same.
Seeking to fight the Wei army should not, retreating and feeling a pity, the current praise slope seems to have become a piece of chicken ribs in Mi Yang's mouth, the food is tasteless, and it is a pity to abandon it.
In this case, suddenly knowing that he was going to the street pavilion, Mi Yang would of course be excited.
After Mi Yang ordered someone to take Dong Yun down to rest, he turned to Zhou Taiyan and said:
"Lone will take five thousand soldiers to the street pavilion.
After the lonely left, the defense of the slope was handed over to the secretary. ”
Hearing Mi Yang say this, Zhou Tai was quite surprised.
Zhou Tai was surprised that Mi Yang did not plan to bring all the 10,000 Han troops to Jieting.
In fact, in the case of not being able to break out of the inclined road, the Han army continued to stay at the mouth of the inclined valley to play a small role.
And Baodaokou has its own army led by Wu Yi to defend it, and there is no need to worry that the Wei army will lead the army to surround Wei to save Zhao.
In this case, why did Mi Yang leave 5,000 Han troops to guard the mouth of the sloping valley?
Looking at Zhou Tai's surprised eyes, Mi Yang didn't explain too much.
Because this arrangement of his is for the future.
Seeing that Mi Yang didn't mean to explain, Zhou Tai also bowed to Mi Yang with interest and said, "Minister, you will definitely live up to the general's order." ”
In the face of Zhoutai's promise, Mi Yang had a smile on his face.
Although the Baodao crossing is garrisoned by Wu Yi and can prevent the Wei army from encircling Wei and saving Zhao, it is also very important for the ramp crossing to be in the hands of the Han army.
Mi Yang believed that once the news of his departure from the valley mouth spread, the Wei army outside the valley mouth would definitely launch an attack on the Han army camp.
Mi Yang, who expected this, naturally wanted to find a suitable commander for the Han army camp at the mouth of the valley.
After the previous temptation, Mi Yang felt that Zhou Tai was the best candidate to guard the Han army camp after he left.
After arranging the affairs of the Han army camp in Zhoutai Town, Mi Yang asked Ding Feng to go and order the three armies.
Tomorrow, he will lead 5,000 Han troops north to the street pavilion.
On the second day, after Mi Yang led his army to Jieting, an edict from Luoyang was sent to Cao Zhang.
In addition to this edict, there is also a tiger talisman that Cao Zhang once mastered, but has not seen for a long time.
Holding the cold tiger talisman in his hand, the content of the edict read out by the envoy Xin Ping sounded in his mind, and Cao Zhang's heart felt quite mixed with the five insides.
The content of the edict was written by Cao Rong himself, and the content of the edict was not complicated - Cao Rong asked Cao Zhang to command more than 10,000 Luoyang Chinese troops and go north to support Zhang He.
Although due to the difficult situation, Cao Rong had to use the Luoyang Chinese army.
But the importance of the Luoyang Chinese Army, no one in the Cao family does not understand.
Therefore, after thinking about it, Cao Rong decided to hand over more than 10,000 Luoyang Chinese troops to Cao Zhang's hands.
Cao Zhang's previous behaviors were overreaching, but no matter what, Cao Zhang is also his uncle and the prince of Emperor Wu.
The Luoyang Chinese Army, after all, must be handed over to their own family to be insured.
Cao Zhang's identity determined that he would not turn his back on Cao Wei Sheji.
Cao Zhang's past military exploits also made Cao Rong believe that he could make good use of the more than 10,000 Luoyang Chinese troops.
And the reason why Cao Zhang, who has a tiger talisman in his hand, has a feeling of five mixed Chen is that since Cao Cao's death, his life can be described as ups and downs.
When Cao Cao was alive, because he saw that Cao Zhang had extraordinary military talents, Cao Cao entrusted Cao Zhang with important tasks.
In the year of Cao Cao's death, Cao Zhangguan visited General Zhengxi and sat in Chang'an, which could command 100,000 elites in Guanzhong.
Even Cao Zhang served as the chief general of the Luoyang Chinese Army for a period of time.
But not long after Cao Cao's death, due to Cao Pi's suspicion, Cao Zhang's official position and military power were all cut by Cao Pi.
Since then, there are no more yellow-bearded generals in the world, and some are just the King of Rencheng who seems to be noble, but is monitored everywhere.
This kind of life, of course, is what Cao Chang doesn't want.
But at this moment when the tiger talisman was in his hand, Cao Zhang knew that his life was about to be renewed.
Originally, Cao Chang thought that Cao Ei used him, just to use his prestige in Guanzhong to stabilize the army's morale, but now it seems that Cao Ei is not Cao Pi.
Cao Rong really wanted him to defend Cao Wei Sheji.
And this matter, Cao Zhang, as the king of the Cao family, is naturally obliged.
Thinking of this, Cao Zhang's eyes froze, and he ordered someone to get his battle armor.
When the armor that had not been worn for many years was put back on his body, Cao Zhang's whole person's momentum changed.
Not only has Cao Zhang's appearance become heroic, but even his temperament is no longer decadent, but full of sharpness.
As a military order came out of Cao Zhang's mouth, the entire Chang'an City knew a piece of news.
Tomorrow, he will be the king of the city, and he will lead the troops to the north to the street pavilion.
Although Mi Yang and Cao Zhang led their troops to the street pavilion almost at the same time, Chang'an was closer to the street pavilion, so Cao Zhang arrived in the street pavilion one step ahead of Mi Yang.
The news of the arrival of Cao Zhang's army was reported to Liu Feng by the scouts early.
And when Liu Feng learned the news, no matter what he thought, anyway, the news quickly spread throughout the Han army camp.
The enemy's reinforcements arrived, and judging from the intelligence, the enemy reinforcements that came this time must have elite soldiers, and strong generals must have strong generals.
Therefore, this news has brought a lot of pressure to the Han army.
Many expected that perhaps one day there would be another major battle between the two armies.
And after Deng Ai and the others learned the news, they were all happy in their hearts.
The Chinese army in Luoyang has arrived, will the arrival of the general be far away?
Let's not mention the reaction of the Han army after receiving this information, let's just say that after Zhang He learned about this incident, he hurriedly ordered the sergeant to open the camp gate, and personally went out of the camp to welcome Cao Zhang into the camp.
Don't look at Zhang He is now General Zuo, but his official position is not worth mentioning in front of Cao Zhang's prince.
What's more, Cao Ei can let Cao Chang command the Luoyang Chinese Army to the north, which means that Cao Ei has already moved the idea of changing generals in his heart.
From the day Cao Zhang arrived at the street pavilion, Cao Zhang had already become the new general of the street pavilion.
After Cao Zhang entered the Wei army camp, he was not in a hurry to let Zhang He hand over the military power in his hands.
He called Zhang He into the account alone, thinking about asking in detail about the whole process of the battle that day.
After fully knowing why the Wei army was defeated in that battle, Cao Zhang pondered for a long time.
But soon, he discovered a key point.
"Catapults are still available."
Cao Zhang's words made Zhang He nod frequently.
On that day, the Wei army was defeated, but the power of the catapult was also confirmed.
As long as the catapult can be used on the wall of the Han military camp without wet cowhide protection, then the seemingly strong Han military camp will not last long.
This is an indisputable fact.
And Zhang He didn't know this.
After Cao Zhang's judgment, Zhang He bowed to Cao Zhang:
"For a period of time, he has been ordering the craftsmen in the camp to build catapults."
After hearing Zhang He's report, a smile appeared on Cao Zhang's face.
Zhang He undoubtedly thought of it with him.
Then Cao Zhang continued: "During the battle of Guandu that year, the first emperor used a hundred catapults to cause the Yuan army to run away.
Although the first thief army did not have as many troops as Yuan's army, if they wanted to break it with one blow, they would probably need at least dozens of catapults.
I don't know if I can do this for Gu as soon as possible? ”
First it was an inquiry, then an inference, and finally a direct assignment.
Cao Zhang didn't drag his feet at all.
Faced with the task arranged by Cao Zhang, Zhang He made a rough estimate in his heart, and quickly responded to Cao Zhang.
"In less than half a month, what the king commanded, he will definitely complete."
It's going to take half a month.
It may sound unacceptable at first, but when you think about it, it can be quite cumbersome to build such a powerful catapult.
After thinking of this, Cao Zhang nodded and agreed to Zhang He.
Zhang He was also interested, and before leaving the big tent, he automatically handed over the tiger talisman in his arms to Cao Zhang's hands.
After Zhang He left, Cao Zhang ordered someone to take a topographical map around the street pavilion and carefully inspect it.
He fights wars and has always liked to prepare for both.
Just when the Wei army camp was working overtime to build catapults, an astonishing news reached the ears of Cao Zhang and Zhang He.
Mi Yang is here!
How did Cao Zhang and Zhang He learn the news?
Not from the mouth of the scout, but
Cao Zhang, dressed in fine armor, stood on the lookout platform in the camp with his hands in his hands, looking towards the Han army camp not far away.
Due to the obstruction of trees and buildings, Cao Zhang naturally could not see any confidential military information.
But the bursts of high and enthusiastic voices in his ears made Cao Zhang's brows tighten.
Bursts of sound came from the Han army camp and continued to stir in the valley around the street pavilion.
Loud and long, like a mountain calling.
And the content of the sound wave is only three words - general.
It was these three words that made Cao Zhang, who was originally confident, inevitably have doubts in his heart.
Dozens of catapults are enough for Liu Feng, but for Mi Yang, I'm afraid they are too few!
