Chapter 557: Wanting to Lead the Heavenly Fire Layout Chang'an
Jiang Wei took Mi Yang all the way and took him to the big tent prepared for him by Deng Ai.
When Mi Yang led the army to the street pavilion, it was already afternoon.
In addition, it took a lot of time to talk to Man Pet just now, so when Mi Yang arrived in his big tent, the time had already come to night.
Ding Feng entered the big tent first and lit a candle for Mi Yang, and Jiang Wei saw that it was dark, so he wanted to say goodbye to Mi Yang.
It's just that Mi Yang didn't let Jiang Wei leave.
Mi Yang let Jiang Wei enter the tent, and he still had one more thing to discuss with Jiang Wei.
Jiang Wei did not doubt him, and entered the wide tent under Mi Yang's greeting.
After Jiang Wei entered the big tent, he found that there were many very delicate furniture in the wide tent of Mi Yang.
With the help of the flickering candlelight, Jiang Wei even found that the bedding on Miyang's couch was also made of Shu brocade, which was extraordinary.
After seeing this scene, Jiang Wei remembered the rumors about Mi Yang that had been circulating in the Wei army before he joined Mi Yang.
According to rumors, although Mi Yang was invincible in a hundred battles and had a reputation in the world, he was not very restrained in his private life.
may be because he was born in a wealthy family, Mi Yang did not inherit Liu Bei's thrifty atmosphere in his private life, on the contrary, Mi Yang also likes brocade clothes.
Even in wartime when everything should be simple, Mi Yang will try his best to create favorable conditions for himself in his private life.
For example, when Ershen was captured, Mi Yang did it at a grand banquet.
In the mainstream concept of the world, of course, Mi Yang will be regarded as a person who "loves extravagance and likes luxury".
This Mi Yang is quite similar to Huo Da Sima a hundred years ago.
In the past, Jiang Wei only thought that these were all slanders by Wei Jun against Mi Yang, but what he saw with his own eyes today undoubtedly confirmed the rumors that Jiang Wei had heard in the past.
It's just that even if he knew that the rumors were true, Jiang Wei didn't care too much about this.
The imperfection of private virtue is indeed a deficiency, but under Mi Yang's blind exploits, this deficiency can be completely understood or accepted by the world.
Just like Huo Dasima back then, as long as he can continue to establish meritorious service for the Han Dynasty, in terms of his personal enjoyment, who would dare to accuse him of anything?
Jiang Wei looked at Mi Yang's Shu brocade futon for a while, and his reaction was seen by Mi Yang.
Mi Yang naturally knew what Jiang Wei was thinking.
However, he likes to enjoy good living conditions regardless of the occasion, not entirely to satisfy personal desires.
Mi Yang mainly used this way to draw a line between himself and a "famous minister through the ages" surnamed Wang.
He is not holy, do not cue.
Liu Bei also knew this kind of thought, so when an official told Mi Yang of this problem, Liu Bei not only did not blame Mi Yang, but laughed and rewarded Mi Yang with a lot of gold and silver.
For example, the futon made of Shu brocade on the couch was made by Liu Bei Shaofu and sent to Mi Yang for thousands of miles.
Seeing Jiang Wei's gaze withdrawn from the Shu brocade futon, Mi Yang said disapprovingly:
"Is there a word of advice and loneliness?"
Faced with Mi Yang's inquiry, Jiang Wei immediately replied: "The things in the account can be criticized by non-subordinates. ”
After listening to Jiang Wei's answer, a smile appeared on Mi Yang's face.
He beckoned Jiang Weilai to sit down in front of him, and then said to Jiang Weiyan: "Not long ago, in order to curry favor with Gu, Sun Quan specially ordered someone to send a band from Jiangdong.
Lone has been busy with official business, but it is a pity that he has never appreciated the style of that band.
After our army returned to the old capital, the Lone Club held a banquet in Chang'an City, and invited Qing and Lone to enjoy the voice of the southeast together. ”
Mi Yang treated Jiang Wei like a friend, and sincerely sent out an invitation.
It's just that Jiang Wei's face suddenly became serious after hearing Mi Yang's invitation.
He just sat down and stood up again, and bowed to Mi Yang: "Xi Cen Peng led the teacher, came to the Stick Festival, and saw the harm of the assassins, now the general is respected and powerful, and the national fortune of the Han Dynasty is all in one, so it is advisable to learn from the past and be less police." ”
"Sun Quan will be avenged for his time, and the general of the First World War of Public Security has a blood feud with Sun Quan, so it is more appropriate to police him!"
Why didn't Jiang Wei advise Mi Yang when he saw Shu Jin's futon at first, but would advise Mi Yang after hearing that Sun Quan had sent Mi Yang a band?
The reason is that Jiang Wei doesn't trust Sun Quan very much.
Sun Quan's two-faced and three-knife character is now known to the world, and the people of Jiangdong are fierce and have always been good at assassins.
For all these reasons, Jiang Wei felt that for the sake of insurance, he felt that it was better to remind Mi Yang.
Jiang Wei's sudden exhortation made Mi Yang stunned.
But he soon burst out laughing.
Mi Yang also heard similar admonitions from Liu Bei's mouth.
Compared with Jiang Wei, Liu Bei's words are much more straightforward.
"Sun Quan's thief, he must have a plan.
Besides, if you like singing and dancing, why should I send you with the court band, why do you need Sun Quan to flatter? ”
To be honest, even without Liu Bei and Jiang Wei's advice, Mi Yang was wary of the band sent by Sun Quan.
During the Three Kingdoms period, many big names died at the hands of assassins, which greatly changed the course of history.
And Mi Yang is a self-aware person, and there must be Sun Quan who wants his life in the world, but Sun Quan is not the only one.
The reason why Mi Yang left the band sent by Sun Quan when he was wary was that he had an unknown calculation in his heart.
However, Mi Yang was still happy with Jiang Wei's advice to him today.
Mi Yang smiled and said to Jiang Wei: "What Qing said, Gu already knows, and he will be more careful." ”
After hearing Mi Yang say this, Jiang Weifang relieved himself.
Then Jiang Wei sat down again.
After Jiang Wei sat down, Mi Yang immediately told Jiang Wei the reason why he left Jiang Wei for a secret conversation today:
"I wonder if Boyo still remembers the battle of Gushan, when the hussar general launched a fire attack on the thief army?"
Seeing Mi Yang suddenly mention this matter, a cautious look appeared on Jiang Wei's face.
When Guo Huai led the army to attack Gushan, Jiang Wei was not in the army because of his injury.
But later, after he returned to the army, he heard many Wei generals mention the scene of Ma Chao's burning of the Wei army that day.
To sum it up in one sentence - what a terrible word.
Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I've only heard about it, it's enough to make people shudder.
And Jiang Wei is also a smart person, after recalling what he heard in the past, Jiang Wei instantly reacted and said:
"Does the general want to use that kind of heavenly fire to defeat Cao Zhang?"
Jiang Wei's reaction was not unpleasant, and he did guess part of Mi Yang's thoughts.
"Yes, yes."
"The catapults used by the thieves recently, no matter how powerful, are still wooden constructions.
Perhaps the thieves were cautious and covered the catapults with raw cowhide to defend them against fire.
But the raw cowhide can resist the ordinary fire attack, but how can it resist the fire of the sky? ”
Mi Yang didn't want to popularize scientific knowledge for Jiang Wei, so he could only follow Jiang Wei's words and call the fire caused by oil the heavenly fire.
Jiang Wei listened to Mi Yang's words, and his face appeared happy.
The power of the Wei army's catapult was huge before, and it has always been a big stone in their hearts.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Mi Yang came, he really came up with a way to destroy the Wei army's catapult as he said.
The strange thing is that he knew about the existence of Tianhuo before, why didn't he think of using Tianhuo to destroy the Wei army's catapult?
In fact, Jiang Wei can't be blamed for this.
After Ma Jun's transformation, the catapult was extremely powerful and could pose a great threat to the Han army's camp, which was a manifestation of Cao Wei's productivity ahead of Ji Han.
The revelor catapult was transformed on the basis of Cao Wei's original thunderbolt car, and Ji Han did not have the world's first-class siege equipment such as the thunderbolt car.
It's not that Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang don't pay attention to the development of this aspect, it's just that most of Ji Han's basic plates are in the south, and in the current world, many of them are in the uncivilized stage.
In terms of the accumulation of technology, the number and skills of craftsmen, and the guarantee of national strength for the research and development of military weapons, Ji Han is much inferior to Cao Wei.
This is true.
Even if Mi Yang wants to reverse this situation, technological development must be supported by strong national strength, perfect institutional guarantees, corresponding talent reserves, and follow the objective laws of the development of the times.
All of the above fundamentally restricts the development of advanced technology, which cannot be accomplished by touching the upper and lower lips.
In addition, Jiang Wei couldn't think of using "heavenly fire" to destroy Ma Jun's wheel-type catapult, because Jiang Wei had the limitations of being an ancient person in his thinking.
At that time, the word science did not have a systematic understanding for the world.
In this context, Ma Jun's wheel-type catapult was like magic in the world.
In the face of incomprehensible "magic", people in the world usually only follow common sense and think of using the art of war to break the law by force.
But he doesn't subconsciously diverge his thinking, thinking about other ways to crack the magic.
But Mi Yang is a traverser.
In later generations there is a saying that says, "Defeat magic with magic!" ”
Mi Yang knows how to achieve corner overtaking in science and technology.
Mi Yang let Jiang Wei get closer, and then he whispered in Jiang Wei's ear.
Only Jiang Wei could hear what Mi Yang said, and as Jiang Wei listened to more content, the more shocked the look on his face became.
General, how do you know this?
He's obviously not from Liangzhou!
After whispering, Mi Yang also looked at the shocked look on Jiang Wei's face.
A similar look also appeared on Mi Yang's face when he saw Zhuge Repeater.
However, he had no intention of explaining.
Sometimes the superior needs to maintain a certain sense of mystery to strengthen his majesty.
After ordering everything, Mi Yang said to Jiang Weiyan:
"As soon as it is dawn tomorrow, you will set out immediately with five hundred elite soldiers.
When you reach your goal, be sure to do what Lone says.
The day you return, it's time to be alone! ”
Mi Yang's words made Jiang Wei get up again, and after he bowed cautiously to Mi Yang, he walked out of the big tent.
Jiang Wei knew that Mi Yang could give him such an important task, not only because he was from Liangzhou, but also because Mi Yang valued him.
Jiang Wei will not let himself live up to Mi Yang's attention.
After Jiang Wei left the big tent, Mi Yang asked Ding Feng to summon Wang Hong, who was with the army.
When Wang Hong came to him, Mi Yang immediately asked him:
"Is there any news from Meng Da?"
At the beginning, Meng Da, under the instruction of Mi Yang, entered Fufeng County to stir up the situation.
Calculating the time, a month has passed since this incident, and it stands to reason that Meng Da should have some results.
It's just that after listening to Mi Yang's inquiry, Wang Hong shook his head at him and said:
"Not yet."
As the days of becoming an intelligence chief became longer and longer, Wang Hong's words became more concise and to the point.
After receiving this reply, Mi Yang's brows furrowed.
He didn't care about Meng Da's life and death, he cared about the news of Meng Da's life and death.
But soon, Mi Yang put this matter down for the time being.
A new command came out of his mouth:
"Send a message to Hua'an, and ask for Chang'an's city defense map, the more detailed the better."
Regarding Mi Yang's new instructions, Wang Hong quickly took the order and left.
After Wang Hong also left the big tent, the big tent fell into tranquility again.
A moment later, Mi Yang's self-muttering sounded in the big tent:
"The strongest city in the world?
Then see if you're really that hard! ”
Two chapters for tomorrow.
