Chapter 711: The Profitable Country
When night fell, Mi Yang walked alone with Shibud in the garden of the mansion.
In the garden, the starlight and candlelight reflect each other, and the figures of Mi Yang and Shibud are long.
Smelling the fragrance of flowers that constantly surrounded him, Mi Yang opened his mouth and asked Shi Bud behind him:
"Zhongrong, do you know why Lone left you alone?"
Faced with Mi Yang's inquiry, Shi Bao immediately replied:
"The minister thinks that Da Sima is for Yong'an."
Han Zong's envoy has been sent away by Mi Yang in Baijian today.
The distance between Xiangyang and Yongan is not far.
In addition, it is the flood season now, and the water transportation is quite convenient, so I think that by tomorrow morning at the latest, Han Zong's envoy will return to Yong'an.
And at this juncture, Mi Yang suddenly left himself, and Shi Bao already had some guesses in his heart.
After hearing Shi Bao's answer, Mi Yang, who was happy with Shi Bao's quick response, stopped, he turned to look at Shi Bao behind him and said:
"Sometimes, you're smarter than Shizai."
Shi Bao knew that Deng Ai had a very important position in Mi Yang's heart.
Therefore, Shi Bud knew what kind of weight Mi Yang's praise had.
Shi Bao hurriedly bowed and said, "Da Sima has a good reputation, and he is full of wisdom, and the people who go are far away."
Shi Bao's words are not humble, he thinks so in his heart.
Mi Yang shook his head.
When it comes to military strategy, Shi Bao is naturally not as good as Deng Ai, but in other aspects, Shi Bao is too much.
For example, character.
In today's deliberations, Mi Yang felt that with Shi Bao's talent, it was impossible not to doubt Han Zong's surrender.
But throughout today's deliberations, Shi Bao has never said a word.
Mi Yang has always been willing to like his subordinates to express their opinions, and Shi Bao didn't say a word, of course, not because he was afraid of saying the wrong thing.
The biggest possibility is that he saw his heart early from other aspects.
Moreover, Fang Cai Shi Bud already knew his intention to keep him, but he took him away for a long time, and he was not impatient, nor did he take the initiative to ask and fiddle with his cleverness.
This kind of heart is something that Deng Ai does not have.
In other words, if you take care of your own henchmen, few people can have this calm heart of Shi Bao.
And it is precisely because of Shi Bao's heart that Mi Yang will leave Shi Bud tonight.
"Do you think Han Zong will agree to Lone's request today?"
Mi Yang asked another question to Shi Bao.
For this question, Shi Bud failed to answer it immediately.
People's hearts have always been the most difficult to guess.
Seeing that Shi Bud didn't respond, Mi Yang said to himself:
"He will."
Mi Yang looked at Shi Bud and expressed a categorical tone.
Shi Bud didn't know the basis for Mi Yang's judgment, but Mi Yang's past performance made Shi Bud always believe in Mi Yang.
And when Shi Bud was silent, Mi Yang continued:
"Actually, what Gu said to Han Zong's envoy today has some reservations."
Hearing Mi Yang say this, Shi Bud couldn't help but be surprised.
What is the place of reservation?
"If you follow Lone's method, it will not be difficult for Han Zong to take Yong'an City.
But what Gu is really worried about is not whether Han Zong can take Yong'an City.
What Lone is worried about is how long Han Zong can defend Yong'an City after taking it."
Mi Yang's words continued to deepen the doubts in Shi Bao's heart.
Shi Bud subconsciously asked, "Didn't Da Sima promise Han Zong's envoy that he would send troops to rescue?"
In Shi Bao's opinion, Jingzhou currently has 60,000 Tiance troops, and the number of state soldiers is also about 40,000.
Combined, Mi Yang currently has an army of 100,000 in his hands.
Although due to the previous policy, some sergeants are being resettled, and they cannot be called in the short term.
No matter how difficult it is, gather about 50,000
It's not difficult.
And Mi Yang personally commanded, plus 50,000 horses to support Han Zong, it was not difficult to repel Lu Xun's army under the cooperation of Li Ying and Wai.
Unless Mi Yang thought at the beginning, he didn't send troops to rescue Han Zong, and sat back and watched Han Zong and Lu Xun fight.
Shi Bao's doubts made Mi Yang smile faintly.
He took Shibud to a gazebo in the garden and sat down.
"Lone has never lied to anyone.
Lone said that he would send troops to rescue, and he would.
It's just that sometimes the world is not something that can be controlled alone.
Lu Xun is currently in Jianye, and perhaps he doesn't know that Han Zong has written a letter to surrender to me.
But Lu Xun is a rare opponent, and it is impossible for him to be defenseless against villains like Han Zong.
Sooner or later, Lu Xun will receive the news.
When he didn't receive the news, he asked Han Zongju to return to righteousness forever.
But Jiangxia is an important town in Eastern Wu, and with the help of geographical advantages, Lu Xun will mobilize a large army to quell the rebellion faster than us.
Of course, if that's it, Lone isn't too worried.
Yong'an City is high and thick, and Han Zong has won the heart of the soldiers, so it is not difficult to defend it for at least a month.
It stands to reason that one month is enough time for a lone army to rush to help.
It's just that Lu Xun is very human, and what Gu can think of, he will definitely be able to think of.
He's going to take the last-mover first-come."
"What is the last-mover first-come, first-come, what did Da Sima say?"
Facing Shi Bao's confused gaze, Mi Yang pointed his finger to the location of Yuzhou in the north.
Seeing what Mi Yang was pointing at, the confusion in Shi Bao's eyes disappeared instantly, his face was shocked, and he blurted out:
"Does Da Sima think that Lu Xun will let Cao Xiu send troops to attack Yiyang County?"
After hearing Shi Bao's guess, Mi Yang nodded.
And after Mi Yang nodded, Shi Bao understood the meaning of Mi Yang's words.
Yiyang County is an important town in Jingzhou, and it is absolutely impossible for Miyang to sit idly by and watch it be taken away.
Although Deng Ai has an extraordinary military strategy, there is no danger around Yiyang County, and Deng Ai's troops are insufficient.
Therefore, when Cao Xiu led his troops to attack Yiyang County, Mi Yang could only send troops north to support.
The important thing is that after Cao Xiu led his army north with Mi Yang, he could choose not to fight Mi Yang, and Chen Bing was outside Yiyang County, dragging Mi Yang to death.
And once Mi Yang sent troops north to support, even if Mi Yang had the heart to take care of Yong'an, Mi Yang couldn't divide too many troops to go to Yong'an.
In that way, without strong reinforcements, Han Zong can hold on for a month, but he will definitely not be able to hold on for too long.
After understanding the worries in Mi Yang's heart, Shi Bao's face showed a solemn look.
It seems that the Han army has entered a dilemma.
Originally, in this case, the safest way was to persuade Mi Yang to give up his plan to seek Yong'an.
But Shi Bao knew that the opportunity was fleeting, and Mi Yang would not be reconciled.
Seeing Shi Bao's solemn face, Mi Yang stretched out his hand and patted Shi Bao's shoulder and said:
"There is only one solution, and there may be a solution to these two dilemmas.
I just need Zhong Rong to do one thing for Lone's adventure."
Mi Yang's words made Shi Bao overjoyed.
Shi Bao hurriedly bowed to Mi Yang and said, "Please drive the big Sima."
Shi Bao's attitude made Mi Yang's face smile, and then he said the plan in his heart.
"If there is no reinforcement, Han Zong will think that Lone is deceiving him, and his mind will be confused at that time.
Not only him, but also his subordinates and the wealthy families in Yong'an City will give up because they can't see hope.
But what if Lone gave them a sure hope?
Yong'an is a fortress of Soochow, not to mention the strong defense of the city, and there is certainly no shortage of grain and grass in the city.
As long as the people in the city are not in turmoil, under Han Zong's stubborn defense, Lu Xun may not be able to capture Yong'an City within a few months."
Mi Yang's words made Shi Bud nod involuntarily.
That's it
What does it have to do with him?
"The conclusive hope that Lone wants to give Han Zong is you.
Lone needs you to enter Yong'an after Han Zong's work is completed.
Everyone in the world knows that you ran thousands of miles back then, and this is your righteousness to Lonely.
This righteousness is as deep as the sea and as high as a mountain.
If you betray this righteousness, you will be reviled from generation to generation.
As long as you are in Yong'an City for a day, the people in the city will firmly believe that Lone may be late to rescue, but they will not abandon them.
Because they believed that it was impossible for Gu to deceive them at the risk of ruining his reputation and that of his ancestors."
When Mi Yang's words fell, Mi Yang wanted to see if Shi Bao's face would change drastically.
After all, no matter what, if Shi Bud agreed to him, it would be equivalent to stepping into the ghost gate with one foot.
It is normal for stone buds to have violent mood swings.
Unfortunately, Mi Yang did not observe the mood changes of the stone buds.
It's just that after a moment of silence, Shi Bao looked up at Mi Yang and said:
"I want to go."
Shi Bao's voice was very soft, falling on Mi Yang's ears, but it made his heart fluctuate violently.
"Lone won't force you."
Mi Yang is willing to give Shi Bao another chance to choose.
But in the face of this second chance, Shi Bao got up and bowed solemnly to Mi Yang:
"If the country lives and dies for profit, will it not be avoided because of misfortune and good fortune!
This is what Da Sima said after the battle of public security that year.
Chen is honored to be able to follow in the footsteps of Da Sima.
And so it is for the sake of the Lord."
"I want to go!"
At this moment, Mi Yang couldn't help but think of his evaluation of Shibao that day:
Shi Zhongrong, unparalleled!
