On the Weishui Avenue in July of the fifth year of Zhangwu, many people living on both sides of the strait saw a scene that they will never forget in their lives.

In the sunlight, they saw countless red-armored guards, advancing in an orderly manner along the rushing Weishui, crashing directly into their sight.

On this day, they seemed to have seen a huge red dragon.

The tens of thousands of alien elite horsemen in front of the team are the sharp dragon horns of this red dragon.

The 100,000 energetic Han army is the thick torso of this red dragon.

And the grain convoy that could not be seen at a glance behind the 100,000 Han army was the hard scale armor on the red dragon's body.

When this huge red dragon appeared on the bank of the Weishui River, the sound of the rushing Weishui hitting the reef was like a high dragon roar from this huge red dragon.

And the people living on both sides of the Weishui River were all filled with a touch of red that was both shocking and yearning.

It has been more than 200 years since the Han Shizu changed the positive color of the Han Dynasty to red.

More than 200 years of time is enough to make red a symbol of the Han Dynasty, and enough for any ordinary person in the world to think of two words in their hearts when they see red - Yan Han!

Is Dahan back?

When I first saw this huge red dragon, this question surfaced in the hearts of tens of thousands of people on both sides of the Weishui River.

With the passage of time, especially when hundreds of gilded "Mi" battle flags appeared, the minds of tens of thousands of people on both sides of the Weishui River changed:

It's the big man who is back!

Even if in recent years, Cao Wei's official deliberately concealed the news of several major defeats at the front, but Cao Wei and the Han people had very active commercial and trade activities.

Under the pride of those footmen from the Han Dynasty, other places dare not guarantee it, but in this Guanzhong region not far from Hanzhong, Mi Yang's glorious deeds have long been spread all over the world.

And those glorious achievements, while strengthening Miyang's prestige in Guanzhong, also made the people of Guanzhong completely associate the word Miyang with the Han Dynasty in their hearts.

After all, if they didn't have those glorious achievements, they might not have heard anything about the Han Dynasty again under the restrictions of Cao Wei's official in this life.

Realizing the tens of thousands of people who came back from the Han Dynasty, they had mixed emotions in their hearts.

On the one hand, they have expectations in their hearts, and on the other hand, in fact, they have indeed betrayed the Han, maybe they are for their own family, but they also inevitably have fear in their hearts.

If General Mi can really recover Guanzhong in the end, will he not blame everything before?

Just when tens of thousands of people in Weishui and the Han Dynasty were uneasy about this, Mi Yang, who was sitting on a horse, also noticed the onlookers of the people on both sides of the strait watching the Han army.

After perceiving this scene, Mi Yang quickly ordered someone to summon Huang Quan, and then ordered something to Huang Quan.

Huang Quan, who got Mi Yang's instructions, hurriedly left to arrange it after the meeting.

After Huang Quan arranged everything, he saw that there was a commotion in the long queue of the 100,000 Han army, as if he was preparing something.

Then not long after, tens of thousands of people on both sides of the Weishui River heard a loud shout that resounded in the sky and exploded in their ears:

"Establish the honor of the king of Qin, and refer to the mountains and rivers together!"

"Establish the honor of the king of Qin, and refer to the mountains and rivers together!"

The huge drink is to roar for the red dragon, and the content of the red dragon's roar has also been clearly transmitted to the ears of tens of thousands of people on both sides of the Weishui.

The most important thing is that tens of thousands of people on both sides of the Weishui River know that the red dragon in their eyes is now controlled by Mi Yang.

Therefore, the roar made by the red dragon at the moment is naturally actually a declaration or promise by Mi Yang to them.

What does this commitment mean?

Among the tens of thousands of people on both sides of the Weishui River, there are many children of the scholar clan.

Ordinary people may not be able to understand the meaning of Mi Yang, but those children of the scholar clan do.

This sentence comes from the Northern Expedition document released by Mi Yang at the beginning of this year, and the meaning of this sentence is also very simple, translated into the vernacular:

Next, follow me to do it, only the merit is not faulty!

Under the explanations of the children of the surrounding scholars, more and more people understood the promise that Mi Yang had made to them.

Mi Yang's promise, while soothing the worries of tens of thousands of people, also made them faintly rise in their hearts.

This is the promise made by the victorious General Mi!

The impulse in my heart, the situation where the loud shouts keep ringing in my ears, there is a trend of intensifying - which man in the world is not hot-blooded?

What's more, don't forget, many years ago, the Liangjiazi of Guanzhong has always been the descendant of the Han official army.

Hundreds of years ago, it was the ancestors of these tens of thousands of people who followed the imperial expedition to Mobei and broke apart the invincible Xiongnu!

Hundreds of years may hide the honor flowing in the blood, but it will not disappear.

Isn't it always their duty to fight for the Han Dynasty in all directions?

Mi Yang is not an immortal, he can't completely guess the thoughts of tens of thousands of people on both sides of the Weishui River who are paying attention to the 100,000 Han troops at the moment.

But there is one person's common feelings, Mi Yang knows.

This person's normal instinct is to surrender to the strong.

The reason why Mi Yang asked 100,000 Han troops to shout that declaration in unison was not to immediately let the tens of thousands of people surrender, which was unrealistic.

Mi Yang planted a seed in their hearts.

As long as the Han army can continue to win victories in the following battles, then this seed will soon break through the ground and become a big tree under the continuous watering of his prestige and the name of the Han Dynasty.

The earthy yellow banner that now covers the heads of tens of thousands of people on both sides of the Weishui River has been stabbed to pieces.

What makes Mi Yang even more excited is that although only tens of thousands of people have heard his declaration today, he believes that under the word of mouth of these tens of thousands of people, millions of people in Guanzhong may also hear about it in the near future.

Even if millions of people can't hear it, the wealthy families of the Guanzhong families, who have always been sensitive to news, will definitely know about it soon.

So.

Mi Yang is digging Cao Wei's roots in Guanzhong!

Today is a very rewarding day in Mi Yang's view.

But today is not the case for Hao Zhao.

When the 100,000 Han troops entered Weishui Avenue, it meant that they were not far from Chencang.

And Hao Zhao is a steady person, he sent scouts to patrol around Weishui Avenue early, in order to receive news about the Han army as soon as possible.

Hao Zhao's arrangement did allow him to receive first-hand information about the Han army.

But after receiving the news, Hao Zhao realized Mi Yang's horror for the first time.

According to the scout:

Today, 100,000 Han troops chanted in unison, "Establish the honor of the king of Qin, and refer to the mountains and rivers together!" ”。”

"Today, tens of thousands of people on both sides of Weishui have a look of emotion on their faces."

Hao Zhao is a soldier who knows the soldiers, and after learning these two news, he can see the purpose of Mi Yang's doing this after a little thought.

The art of war, the heart is the first!

Why did Hao Zhao have the confidence to defend Chencang for the Great Wei after learning that there were 100,000 Han troops approaching Chencang?

It's not that he's arrogant, it's that he knows where his strengths are.

Aside from the fact that Chencang City is high and thick, and the soldiers are well fed, the most important point is that Chencang City is on his own territory.

The Han army was a guest army from an expedition, and for the guest army, they could not get food supplies around Chencang, nor would they have the support of the local people.

This will make every move of the 100,000 Han army outside Chencang City difficult.

The location, the people are all in his own hands, what reason does Hao Zhao have for not having confidence in holding Chen Cang?

But Mi Yang also knew this, so he used the offensive strategy today, in order to slowly disintegrate the Wei army's home advantage in Chencang little by little.

Once Mi Yang's plan to attack the heart is successful, then at that time, the right place and the right people, among the three things, you will have the right place left!

Hao Zhao, who realized this, was so anxious that he immediately sat down and wrote an urgent report.

This urgent report was sent to Cao Zhen.

In the emergency report, Hao Zhao explained Mi Yang's sinister intentions in detail, and emphatically reminded Cao Zhen that Mi Yang would definitely knock Chen Cang to death next, so that he should not worry too much about what happened after Chen Cang.

If there are reinforcements, they can be sent to Chencang as soon as possible.

After writing this urgent report, Hao Zhao ordered someone to quickly send the urgent report to Chang'an.

Hao Zhao had a hunch in his heart that if he didn't send the message in time today, he might not be able to send it in the future.

Hao Zhao's hunch was not wrong.

On the second day after the messenger left Chencang City, tens of thousands of Han soldiers under the leadership of Ma Chao had already arrived at Chencang City.

The vanguard army alone has tens of thousands of people, and Ma Chao has never been so arrogant since he joined Dahan.

So on the day when he led the army to Chencang, Ma Chao led tens of thousands of Han army cavalry and galloped back and forth outside Chencang City to patrol.

On the one hand, Ma Chao did this in order to let his cavalry block the communication arteries of Chencang City to communicate with the outside world, and on the other hand, to promote martial arts, so as to reduce the morale of the Wei army in Chencang City.

The news of Ma Chao's arrival was soon known by Hao Zhao.

Hao Zhao came down to the tall city wall with the guards on the left and right, and looked at the main road from Chen Cangcheng to Chang'an, which had been controlled by tens of thousands of Han army iron cavalry, which made his face a little unsightly.

And after learning that the commander of the tens of thousands of cavalry was Ma Mengqi, who had been in Guanzhong in all directions in previous years, Hao Zhao's face was even more ugly.

General Shenweitian, is he now only worthy of being the vanguard of Mi Yang in the Han army?

So when Mi Yang arrives with the main force of the Han army, what kind of luxurious lineup will he come up with to attack Chen Cangcheng?

In order to prevent Ma Chao's arrival from affecting the morale of the Wei army on the city wall, Hao Zhao pacified him on the city wall before returning to the mansion.

But a message received on the second day brought Hao Zhao to the city wall.

Compared with yesterday's jealousy, Hao Zhao now has awe in his heart.

I saw that on the official road outside Chencang City, there was a large amount of dust rolling in the air.

The obscuration of the large dust made Hao Zhao, who had just arrived at the city wall, unable to see anything from his sight for the first time.

But in Hao Zhao's ears, he heard a sound that made his heart beat faster.

From the distant horizon, there was a sound of footsteps stepping on the ground and the sound of armor colliding, which spread to Hao Zhao's ears with the help of the wind.

And as the dust approached quickly, the sound became louder and louder.

In the end, the loud sounds, as if turning into rolling thunder, overwhelmed Hao Zhao and the Wei troops on the city wall.

Hao Zhao, who has been in the army for many years, knows that such a loud march sound cannot be made without a large number of soldiers.

100,000 Han troops have arrived, Mi Yang has arrived!

After the large dust came to the foot of Chen Cangcheng, with the sound of a drum, the large dust did not continue to advance.

And with the stop of 100,000 Han troops, the dust covering them gradually dissipated between heaven and earth.

In the end, the true face of the 100,000 Han troops was also reflected in the eyes of the Wei troops on the city wall.

Dense spears stood under Chencang City, and countless red colors glittered in the sunlight.

At this moment, Hao Zhao really realized the feelings in the hearts of tens of thousands of people on both sides of Weishui that day.

But what made Hao Zhao care more was the dazzling battle flag with the word "Mi".

It stands to reason that the battle flag of the main general does not need to be prepared too much, but Mi Yang almost let his military flag be planted almost all over the military array of the 100,000 Han army, as if he was afraid that others would not know that he was coming.

Mi Yang has been fruitful in doing so.

When the thousands of Wei soldiers on the city wall saw the battle flag with the word "Mi", their faces inevitably showed fear.

There is no shame in being afraid of Miyang, in this world, this is already a human nature.

After sensing the reaction of his own soldiers, Hao Zhao hurriedly spoke to appease.

Compared with yesterday, Hao Zhao's pacification time today seems quite long.

Fortunately, Hao Zhao had a lot of prestige in the army, which allowed him to finally appease the morale of many Wei troops.

What Hao Zhao didn't know was that while he was looking at the Han army under the city, Mi Yang in the Han army's formation was also looking at Chen Cangcheng with his eyes.

Mi Yang saw Chen Cangcheng for the first time with his own eyes, but it was this first time that Mi Yang secretly praised Chen Cangcheng's strong city defense in his heart.

It's just the same as the public security city back then.

It's just that Mi Yang, who has other plans in his heart, doesn't care too much about this.

He just ordered the whole army to set up camp outside Chencang City, making a posture of fighting a protracted war.

But after issuing this military order, Mi Yang secretly asked people to summon Ma Chao and Zhao Yun.

As the two most powerful tiger generals in his army at the moment, Mi Yang has an important task to hand over to them next.

After Ma Chao and Zhao Yun arrived, Mi Yang asked Ma Chao to hand over more than 10,000 elite horsemen under his command to Zhao Yun.

Although Mi Yang's arrangement made Ma Chao a little puzzled, he didn't think too much about it.

Based on Mi Yang's previous performance, Ma Chao was not worried that Mi Yang would not give him the opportunity to make meritorious contributions.

Mi Yang transferred the cavalry under his command to Zhao Yun, perhaps planning to let him lead the Han army and capture the city first?

Tiger general, isn't that how it is used.

At this time, Ma Chao and Zhao Yun didn't know what Mi Yang's real purpose was.

Therefore, after Zhao Yun took over the military power of tens of thousands of cavalry troops, he asked: "The general wants to give up his ministers and continue to block the main road from Chen Cang to Chang'an?" ”

After hearing Zhao Yun's inquiry, a smile appeared on Mi Yang's face and replied:

"It's not a blockade, it's a fast fight, a slow one, and a breakthrough all the way!"

Since he was only going to ask a symbolic question, after listening to Mi Yang's words, Zhao Yun subconsciously wanted to bow down and receive his order.

"Lord."

But before the last word was spoken, Zhao Yun suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Breakthrough, where to break through?

Seeing that Ma Chao and Zhao Yun's faces were surprised, Mi Yang pointed in a direction in his hand - Chang'an.

Mi Yang's remote finger made Ma Chao and Zhao Yun look at each other and their hearts were shocked.

Break through to Chang'an?

It can't be that you're old, right?

There is one more chapter in the early hours of the morning.
