After Zhang He's envoy left, Mi Yang really ordered the whole army to stop advancing and camp in place, just as he had promised.

When Mi Yang's order was issued, several of the surrounding Han generals had puzzled looks on their faces.

But in front of everyone, these people did not express their different views in public.

After the other Han generals left to arrange the camp, and Mi Yang's camp tent was set up first, the Han generals followed Mi Yang into the camp.

Mi Yang saw that Zhao Yun and the others did not leave, but followed him into the tent, so he roughly guessed what was going on with them.

After sitting down, Mi Yang looked at the few people standing in front of him, and then asked slowly, "Zhu Qing, do you think there is anything wrong with Gu Fangcai's order?" ”

Although at the moment, with Mi Yang's prestige, his words in the Han army are almost equivalent to the holy decree.

But Mi Yang is not a person who likes to act arbitrarily, and he has always encouraged his generals to put forward different opinions to him.

When Mi Yang's question fell into the ears of Zhao Yun and the others, they couldn't help but glance at each other.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Yun, whose identity in the army was only under Mi Yang, came out and said to Mi Yang:

"What Zhang He's envoy said, on the surface, it seems that there is no big problem, but Zhang He has been rebelling against Wei for decades.

With his talent and prestige, even after our army recovered Chang'an, he could still be polite.

What's more, Chang'an is still in the hands of the thief army at the moment?

It happened suddenly, and it was easy to be strange, and I hope the general will think twice. ”

Zhao Yun can be regarded as the one with the most calm personality among these Han generals.

Therefore, it can be heard from his words that he personally does not believe in Zhang He's surrender.

And after Zhao Yun finished speaking, Huang Quan on the side also stepped forward and admonished:

"The minister thinks that Zhang He's sudden request to surrender is reasonable, just like in previous years, he wants to invite the general to contribute to Chang'an, so as to hope to fly in my Han Dynasty.

Ranchen thought that even if Zhang He's willingness to surrender was true, our army would not have to stop a few miles away from Chang'an.

For the sake of peace, the general should lead his army to surround Chang'an City as soon as possible. ”

Compared with Zhao Yun, Huang Quan is willing to believe that Zhang He's surrender is true.

This is because Huang Quan was born in a famous family and has always looked down on those who betray their masters and seek glory.

In the fact that the lord is defeated and the power is defeated, it is called knowing the current affairs, and according to some circumstances, it can also be crowned with the reputation of a good bird choosing a tree to perch.

If you don't have the above two prerequisites, and even make yourself a key factor in the defeat of the monarch, this is not called knowing the current affairs, but simply selling the lord for glory.

Zhang He's behavior in the Battle of Guandu belongs to which kind of thing it belongs to.

For this kind of person who betrays his lord and seeks glory, Huang Quan is disdainful.

In addition to being disdainful, it is naturally easier to accept the possibility of Zhang He betraying the Lord and seeking glory again.

As for the doubts that Zhao Yun said, Huang Quan felt that it made sense, and expressed his views in his suggestions.

But I believe that Huang Quan still thinks that it is more stable to lead the army to surround Chang'an City first.

After Huang Quan finished speaking, several Han generals standing behind him showed expressions of approval on their faces.

It seems that those Han generals are more in agreement with Huang Quan's suggestions.

And after Mi Yang listened to Zhao Yun and Huang Quan's suggestions respectively, a smile appeared on his face.

He first looked at Zhao Yunyan and said, "Zhang He's request to surrender is nine times out of ten false. ”

After hearing Mi Yang's words, several Han generals in the tent were all shocked.

Where did the general see that Zhang He's request to surrender was fake?

In fact, from the fact that Mi Yang's title to Zhang He changed from the table character to him, it can be known that if Mi Yang was still expecting Zhang He's invitation at the beginning, then in the end, Mi Yang's trust value in this matter was almost 0.

Mi Yang has this inference, mainly from two aspects.

On the one hand, Mi Yang knew that as early as decades ago, Cao Cao adopted a policy of "quality capital" in order to prevent the betrayal of his generals.

As the name suggests, this policy was to keep the families of important commanders and generals in Cao Wei's center of power.

The family members who remained in the capital were actually hostages who guaranteed that the generals would not betray them.

Before the implementation of the "quality capital" policy, the betrayal of the generals under Cao Cao was endless.

With Cao Cao's suspicious personality and Cao Wei's treacherous political environment, it is indeed impossible for ordinary people not to betray.

However, after the implementation of the "quality capital" policy, the betrayal of the generals for decades has indeed rarely happened.

Just because it's rare doesn't mean it's never happening again.

Throughout the ages, there has never been a shortage of ruthless people who don't care about their families.

I won't mention Wu Qi who is far away, just like Yu Ban and Man Pet in recent years, isn't it the best example?

Therefore, it would be too arbitrary to think that Zhang He's surrender must have been fake from this point alone.

After all, Yu Ban and Man Pet, who are better at discipline, can do this kind of thing, and Zhang He, who has a fight with Lu Bu, is more like a person who can do this kind of thing.

What really made Mi Yang suspicious of Zhang He's request for surrender was supported by another reason.

Ten miles out of school?

On the surface, Zhang He's request is not too problematic, but what if it is combined with the military intelligence that a Wei army reinforcement is about to arrive in Chang'an?

This military information is confidential, and at present, except for Mi Yang in the Han army, only Ma Chao knows about it.

But even Mi Yang, who has Si Wencao, didn't know about it at first.

It was with the help of some families in Luoyang City who sympathized with Yang Biao that Mi Yang learned about this matter from a special channel.

Knowing this military situation, with Mi Yang's intelligence, he could naturally guess that Zhang He and Cao Zhang were probably planning something.

Asking for surrender is false, but delaying the army is true.

But obviously Mi Yang has already seen this, why would he agree to Zhang He's invitation?

After being surprised, puzzled eyes appeared in the eyes of Zhao Yun, Huang Quan and the others.

Facing everyone's puzzled eyes, Mi Yang said with a smile:

"For Lone, whether Zhang He's invitation to surrender is true or not, it doesn't matter at all.

The important thing is that Zhang He and Cao Zhang were smart and sent them to the door by themselves! ”

After saying the above words, Mi Yang looked at Huang Quan again:

"Qing Fangcai suggested that Gu Ying should lead the army to surround Chang'an City as soon as possible, presumably just in case Cao Zhang and Zhang He are using a delaying tactic."

"Qing's concern is right, according to the information obtained by Gu, there is an enemy reinforcement coming from the direction of Luoyang."

Hearing Mi Yang say this, the doubts in the eyes of Huang Quan and several other Han generals became even stronger.

If the general knew that the enemy was coming, why did he let the army stop?

In this case, shouldn't we lead the army to besiege Chang'an City as soon as possible?

In addition to doubts, Zhao Yun and Huang Quan couldn't help but think.

They knew that Mi Yang must have done this for a reason.

It's just a pity, no matter how they think, they can't guess what Mi Yang thinks after all.

After perceiving that Zhao Yun and the others had nothing to gain in the end, Mi Yang tried to remind:

"Those who are good at fighting must learn to think from the enemy's point of view.

Now that we know what the enemy's purpose is, why don't you try to think about it differently? ”

Mi Yang's words gave you a great hint.

Soon, one of the Han generals had a look of enlightenment on his face, and this person was Jiang Wei.

I saw Jiang Wei, who had come up with something, and looked at Mi Yang with excitement.

After seeing Jiang Wei's excited expression, Mi Yang stretched out his hand and pointed at him and said, "Say what comes to mind." ”

With Mi Yang's permission, Jiang Wei stepped forward and crossed Zhao Yun and Huang Quan and said the inference in his heart.

"In the battle of Xicheng, everyone in the world knows that the general is good at deceitful and surrendering.

In addition, with the prestige of the general's current voice, even if Cao Zhang wanted to use the general's trick to surrender, he would definitely not think that this matter would succeed at one time.

Under the apprehension in his heart, Cao Zhang asked the envoy to make a request for our army to withdraw ten miles.

Now that our army is breaking through the city, Cao Zhang knows that the general will never agree to such a request.

Therefore, Cao Zhang's request was to test the general's attitude.

Or that Cao Zhang is advancing by retreating!

Cao Zhang's real purpose is to let us not besiege Chang'an City.

And Cao Zhang must have been ready to send a second wave of envoys to ask again. ”

Jiang Wei's analysis caused the generals to nod frequently.

Under empathy, it is easy to judge whether Jiang Wei's analysis is reasonable.

Even if you don't empathize, according to normal logic, if you want to convince the enemy commander of the surrender, it is impossible to succeed with a single collusion.

thinks about how many sincere letters Meng Da wrote before and after in order to win Cao Ren's trust, coupled with the act of breaking his will, he finally let Cao Ren enter the pit.

There are also two examples of Wu Yi defrauding Cao Hong and Huang Gai defrauding Cao Cao, Wu Yi and Huang Gai didn't know how much effort they put in in order to win the trust of the enemy.

After saying the above analysis, Jiang Wei, who felt that he understood Mi Yang's intentions more and more, became more excited.

"The monarchs wondered why the general did not besiege Chang'an City with the army when he knew that the enemy was cheating.

But why don't you imagine how Cao Zhang would feel when Zhang He's envoy returned to Chang'an City and told Cao Zhang that the general was willing to believe that Zhang He asked to surrender?

Shouldn't he be more confused? ”

Jiang Wei's words were like a lightning bolt that quickly crossed the minds of the Han generals, allowing them to quickly grasp the key point.

Yes!

From Cao Zhang's point of view, he must have felt that this matter was suspicious and ridiculous.

Is it so easy to deceive?

Once this doubt arises in Cao Zhang's heart, then some things are easy to guide.

"Don't forget, the person who is asking for surrender right now is Zhang He.

Zhang He may have thought that with his past, he would make the general believe in his request to surrender.

But the important thing is that with his past, Cao Zhang will not be able to rest assured of him! ”

As soon as Jiang Wei's words came out, the faces of Zhao Yun, Huang Quan and others, who reacted quickly, had already appeared happy.

What Jiang Wei said is based on facts.

After Xiahou Yuan was killed in the Battle of Hanzhong that year, in order to stabilize the situation in Hanzhong, a group of Wei generals publicly recommended Zhang He as the new commander.

But after knowing the results of this public recommendation, Zhang He was almost scared to death

Later, as soon as Cao Cao arrived in Hanzhong, the first thing he did was not to rearrange the defensive line, but to take away Zhang He's military power.

Everyone who participated in the battle of Hanzhong knows about this incident, and it can be seen from this incident that Cao Wei did not trust Zhang He at all.

So when Cao Zhang was puzzled, what would he think, who was already suspicious of Zhang He?

Do you think that Mi Yang suddenly lost her mind, or do you think that there is something wrong between Zhang He and Mi Yang?

Once an envoy believes in surrender, how good the feelings must be to have this effect!

When I think of this, how can I make you generals feel happy.

Looking at the smiles on the faces of the generals, Mi Yang first gave Jiang Wei an appreciative look:

"Whoever knows me, Boyo."

After praising Jiang Wei, Mi Yang said to the generals: "The enemy reinforcements from Luoyang, Lone has already sent a hussar general to stop it, so there is no need to worry too much.

If you don't have to worry about enemy reinforcements, why not stop here for a few days?

What Lone did today was to take advantage of the situation and see if he could make Zhang He's deception become a real one. ”

Mi Yang directly said his true intentions.

It's just that after knowing Mi Yang's true intentions, Huang Quan is still a little puzzled.

"The general cares so much about Zhang Hehu?"

After hearing Huang Quan's puzzlement, Mi Yang was stunned for a moment, and then said with a laugh:

"Definitely! Definitely!

Although Zhang He is a good general for a while, with the current situation, the Han can also be said to be full of talents.

There is no shortage of Zhang He. ”

After saying this, Mi Yang stood up directly and came to the Han generals, and he taught to the Han generals:

"For you, the most important thing is to capture Chang'an City now, but for Lone, Chang'an City Lone must be taken, and the national fortune Gu who is against Wei will also be further attacked.

After our army takes Chang'an, it is very likely that the reverse Wei will move the capital to Yecheng.

At that time, Hebei will become the area of the final decisive battle between our army and the anti-Wei.

It was precisely because Lone knew this that Lone asked Zhang He to surrender to the Han.

Zhang He was born in a famous family in Hebei, and it is not happy to have Zhang He alone.

But with Zhang He alone, it is possible to let Lone exert influence in Hebei, so as to attract a large number of Hebei talents to vote step by step.

In addition, this move may further weaken the city defense force of Chang'an City, killing two birds with one stone, why can't Lone take advantage of the trend?

In your opinion, Lone has postponed the attack on Chang'an, but in fact, the attack on Chang'an has already begun the moment he saw Zhang He's envoy.

If the commander of the army sees only one person and one city in his eyes, it is tantamount to a blind eye! ”

Mi Yang's words made Huang Quan, Zhao Yun and other Han generals bow down together.

It is no wonder that the great generals can have today's achievements, this ideological dimension is not on the same level as theirs.

It's just that.

"What if Cao Zhang becomes suspicious and kills Zhang He violently?"

This sentence was asked by Wei Yan.

After Wei Yan's question was heard by Mi Yang, Mi Yang didn't care at all.

"If Zhang He is incompetent and can't find an opportunity to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, then it won't be a pity.

If he can die in the hands of Cao Zhang, it will be beneficial and harmless to our army.

Don't forget Yang Fu's death! ”

Mi Yang's tone was cold and realistic.

Next, it's up to Zhang He's own creation.

Who told him to get an axe?

Zhang He's envoy returned to Chang'an City soon after.

After learning the news of the envoy's return, Cao Zhang couldn't wait to summon the envoy.

In the lobby, Cao Zhang, Xiahou Nan, and Zhang He were seated according to their respective identities.

When the envoy came to the three of them, he quickly reported the whole process of the mission with a happy face.

"Your Highness!

The minister had successfully completed the task, and Mi Yang enthusiastically accepted General Zuo's request to surrender. ”

When the messenger said this, his tone was full of anger.

In his opinion, this is a matter of pride, after all, he successfully completed the task, and he will be greatly credited.

But after Zhang He heard the messenger's words, he was so frightened that he didn't hold the bamboo slip in his hand for a while.

I'm going to do it!
