Mi Han

Chapter 156
Since it is a win-win proposal, Cao Cao certainly has no reason to refuse.

It's just that the exchange of population between the two is easy to say, but it is quite complicated to do.

For example, how many prisoners of the Wei army were taken by Liu Bei's side, and how many people were taken by Cao Cao's side, this is a matter worthy of discussion.

After all, most of Liu Bei's captives were young and strong soldiers.

Although the Battle of Xiangfan, coupled with many days of captivity, tens of thousands of Wei soldiers have been captured, the fight has a psychological shadow on Jingzhou.

But these warriors were sent back to recuperate for a period of time, and it would be good to use them to beat Sun Quan in the future.

Although there were many young and strong people among the people Cao Cao migrated back then, most of them were old, weak, women and children.

Under such circumstances, naturally it cannot be exchanged in a one-to-one ratio.

It's just that these are things that courtiers should study, and Cao Cao doesn't want to care too much about these trivial matters.

He only needs to present the proposal to his courtiers at the end, and make a final decision.

Cao Cao handed over the matter to Jiang Ji.

After being appointed by Cao Cao, Jiang Ji immediately left the king's tent and summoned all the staff members of the prime minister's mansion in his tent.

In front of his officials, he drew a general outline of the migrating people.

That is, among the people who migrated from the south at the beginning, those who were born in poverty or who were in short supply should be mixed in as much as possible.

This move is to prevent Liu Bei from discovering any talents among these people.

Most of those born in poverty are illiterate, and most of those who are short-lived have low self-esteem. Under these two conditions, it is basically impossible for any talents to emerge.

Jiang Ji is really a loyal minister of Cao Cao, and he considers Cao Cao in everything he does.

After roughly setting the framework, Jiang Ji, as the prime minister's secretary, ordered all the officials in the prime minister's mansion to go to the households of the Ruying generation to count the list of people who could migrate this time as soon as possible.

Following Jiang Ji's order after order, many staff members of the prime minister's mansion rode out of the camp with orders and began to head north quickly.

And when all the staff members left, Jiang Jifang was able to take a short rest.

After Jiang Ji was free, Sima Yi came to Jiang Ji's tent and asked him, "Zitong is on the other side of the emissary at sunrise, what do you think of Liu Bei?"

Jiang Ji and Sima Yi used to be Cao Cao's chief officials, and they worked together for a long time, so they have a good relationship in private.

Seeing Sima Yi asking about Liu Bei, Jiang Ji recalled his experience in the Han army commander's tent that day.

With some admiration on his face, he replied to Sima Yi: "Liu Bei is lenient and can win the hearts of scholars."

Because of his personal relationship with Sima Yi, Jiang Ji told Sima Yi what he really thought in his heart.

After Sima Yi finished listening, his face remained calm, and he asked Jiang Ji again: "Has Zi Tong ever seen Mi Yang?"

Jiang Ji recalled the situation of the big tent that day, there was a young man in his twenties not far from Liu Bei's head, and he must have been Mi Yang.

So he nodded.

Seeing that Jiang Ji had seen Mi Yang, Sima Yi invited Jiang Ji to draw Mi Yang's appearance for him.

Although Jiang Ji didn't understand what Sima Yi meant by this move, he, who was good at painting, didn't shirk his friend's request.

Soon after, Jiang Ji finished the portrait of Mi Yang.

After getting Mi Yang's portrait, Sima Yi's face showed joy for the first time.

Although he was just outside the Public Security City before, he was kept in the camp by Lu Meng, so he never saw Mi Yang.

Seeing that Sima Yi got Mi Yang's portrait, Jiang Ji was delighted. For some reason, he asked, "What does Zhong Da want for Mi Yang's portrait?"

Sima Yi evaded in words: "Shi'er is a young man, after hearing about Mi Yang's deeds, he has always wanted to see what he looks like, so he begged me to find a portrait for him."

After Sima Yi said this, Jiang Ji nodded and stopped talking.

Later, Sima Yi left Jiang Ji's tent and walked out, returning to his own tent.

As soon as Sima Yi returned to his camp, his son Sima Shi immediately stepped forward to salute him.

At this time, Master Sima saw that Sima Yi was holding a picture scroll in his hand, so he asked curiously, "Who is this picture scroll in father's hand?"

Sima Yi didn't answer Master Sima, but just took the scroll into his inner tent and hung it up.

Sima Shi walked into the inner tent and saw that the scroll Sima Yi had brought back showed a kneeling young general, and his curiosity was even greater.

Only then did Sima Yi reply to Master Sima: "This person is Mi Yang who has recently been praised by the world as the White Deer of the Han Dynasty."

Hearing Sima Yi mention that the young general in the portrait is Mi Yang, Sima Shi's eyes lit up instantly.

After finishing this sentence, Sima Yi continued to educate Master Sima: "For the enemy, you must first understand it, and then you can subdue it."

When saying this, Sima Yi recalled many secret letters between him and Wei Crown Prince Cao Pi.

Because Sima Yi is Cao Pi's good friend, and when Cao Pi and Cao Zhi fought for the heir apparent, Sima Yi contributed a lot, so Cao Pi is very close and trusting to Sima Yi.

In the letters Cao Pi wrote to Sima Yi, he often expressed his emotion that all the famous generals of Cao Wei today are old.

This was even more pronounced last year.

Among the five good generals, Le Jin died of illness, Xu Huang died in battle, and Yu Jin surrendered to the enemy, leaving only Zhang He and Zhang Liao.

In a recent letter, Cao Pi hinted in the letter that Sima Yi would use him more and appoint him as the general after he succeeded to the throne in the future.

What Cao Pi promised was to assist Cao Ren to guard the front line of Jingzhou.

Mi Yang has had the most prestigious reputation in Jingzhou since the First World War of Public Security, and he is most likely to be left in Jingzhou by Liu Bei in the future.

In this way, Sima Yi guessed that he might have a day to fight against Mi Yang in the future.

Sima Yi has far-reaching intentions and strives to be considerate in everything.

Facing Mi Yang, a potential opponent, how could he not even know the opponent's appearance?

Sima Yi not only hung the portraits of Mi Yang in his inner tent, but also the portraits of Guan Yu, Zhuge Liang, Fazheng and others in his inner tent.

And on the bookshelf in Sima Yi's inner tent, half of the bookshelves were filled with classics from various families, and the other half was filled with information about these people that he had collected in every possible way.

After Ma Liang sent Liu Bei as an envoy, Liu Bei dismissed the meeting.

After Mi Yang left the handsome tent, he immediately came outside Zhang Fei's big tent.

At this time Zhang Fei was in the tent, directing his attendants to pack their bags.

Before Mi Yang entered Zhang Fei's handsome tent, Mi Yang heard Zhang Fei's loud voice shouting angrily:

"How can you move so slowly!"

"The king's order has been issued. If you delay my departure because of you, I will have to whip you a few more times."

Mi Yang who heard Zhang Fei shouting angrily outside the tent couldn't help but have black lines all over his head.

Zhang Fei has such a temper!

Liu Bei had warned him just now, but he forgot about it just after leaving the tent for a while.

Mi Yang lifted the curtain and walked into Zhang Fei's big tent.

Zhang Fei, who was angrily shouting at the soldiers, saw Mi Yang coming, and a smile appeared on his face instantly.

Zhang Fei attaches great importance to friendship, and he has always had a good feeling for the Mi brothers who never let go of Liu Bei when they were in their infancy.

And now Mi Fang and his son have saved Guan Yu's life, all these reasons make his sense of Mi Yang not worse than before.

Zhang Fei quickly walked up to Mi Yang, grabbed Mi Yang's hand that was about to salute, and said with a smile: "You boy, do you think you won't come to see me off?"

"When I was young, I kept pestering me to teach you martial arts, but when I grew up, I became more and more alienated from me."

Zhang Fei was very strong, he pulled Mi Yang straight forward, even Mi Yang couldn't stop him.

At this time, Mi Yang remembered that Zhang Fei was like this when he was a child, he just snatched him from Mi Fang's arms, carried him and threw him on his horse, and then took him to the field for military training.

That was a really painful memory.

If it weren't for Zhang Fei, Mi Yang would definitely not be able to reach the level of proficiency in bowing horses today.

Zhang Fei took Mi Yang to sit down in front of a food table in the tent, and when he saw that there was no wine on the food table, he immediately murmured: "Fan Qiang, Fan Qiang!"

"Where's my wine?"

An officer called Fan Qiang by Zhang Fei immediately stopped packing his bags for Zhang Fei.

He shook his body and made a trembling sound to apologize to Zhang Fei repeatedly, and then took out a pot of wine from a place.

Fan Qiang carefully brought the wine to Zhang Fei, Zhang Fei took it impatiently, then reprimanded him a few words, and asked him to pack his bags.

Seeing this scene, Mi Yang frowned and sighed secretly.

It can be seen that Fan Qiang has developed muscle memory for how hard he was beaten by Zhang Fei in the past.

This Fan Qiang is the person who killed Zhang Fei in history, and there is another person named Zhang Da.

Although Zhang Da was not seen, he should be one of the few people who packed Zhang Fei's bags.

Mi Yang came here this time to see Zhang Fei off, and to get rid of these two scourges.

After Zhang Fei took the jug, he picked up the wine glass on the food table and poured a glass for Mi Yang first.

After pouring himself a cup, Zhang Fei smiled and said, "Brazil is not rich, but there are many fruit trees."

"Locals often pick wild fruits from the trees to make wine. The taste is very fragrant. I like this taste as soon as I drink it."

"Today Zicheng came to see him off, so I specially took out this pot of fruit wine I brought from Bazhong to drink with Zicheng."

After Zhang Fei finished speaking, he said to Mi Yang with a more emphatic tone: "Zi Sheng must drink this pot of wine with me today before he can leave."

After speaking, Zhang Fei drank it down in one gulp.

Among Mi Yang's several uncles, Zhang Fei has the most vigorous temperament and doesn't care about trifles.

But with his personality, it is easier to communicate with juniors.

Although Zhang Fei often scolded and whipped soldiers and villains, it would be great if he fell in love with someone he liked.

It can be reflected from his current performance.

In front of Mi Yang, he didn't have the airs of his uncle and General You at all.

After Zhang Fei finished drinking, Mi Yang also finished drinking the wine in his hand.

After drinking the fruit wine, Mi Yang felt that the taste of this Brazil fruit wine was somewhat different from the popular wines in the world, it was more sour and sweet.

It's delicious, a bit like the juice of later generations.

Seeing that Mi Yang had finished drinking a glass, Zhang Fei was so happy that he poured another glass for Mi Yang.

After drinking for three rounds, Zhang Fei said with emotion: "If it weren't for Brazil, which is an important place in Yizhou, I really don't want to be stationed there."

"It doesn't matter if Brazil is poor, it's just that you don't see many acquaintances on weekdays, and you can't find someone to drink with."

Zhang Fei poured out the bitterness in his heart in front of Mi Yang, he dared not say these words in front of Liu Bei and Guan Yu.

After pouring out the bitter water, Zhang Fei poured himself another glass of wine.

At this moment, Mi Yang saw that the atmosphere was getting better, so he let out a sigh on purpose.

Seeing that Mi Yang was drinking well, Zhang Fei sighed. He couldn't help asking Mi Yang, "Zi Sheng has made great achievements and is famous far and wide. It's the time when he is proud, why is he sighing?"

"If you have any troubles, just say it, and uncle will definitely solve it for you."

Seeing that Zhang Fei took the initiative to ask questions, Mi Yang blinked and said immediately: "Uncle doesn't know something, the king ordered me to be a partial general before, and allowed me to recruit more than ten thousand soldiers as subordinates."

"It's just that soldiers are easy to find, but generals are hard to find."

"There are at least hundreds of generals for more than [-] soldiers. Where can we find so many generals all of a sudden?"

Seeing Mi Yang talking about his troubles, Zhang Feibao narrowed his eyes.

He approached Mi Yang with his bearded face, then stared at Mi Yang and said: "You boy, it's not as simple as seeing me off today, right?"

Zhang Fei's temperament is a little irritable, but he is not stupid.

Among the several nephews and nephews back then, in the face of his teaching, everyone else was taught obediently, only Mi Yang tried every means to avoid it.

The performance in this period of time has further proved that Mi Yang is a resourceful person.

Such a person suddenly said in front of himself that there was a lack of generals, and Zhang Fei would not believe it if he said that there was no trick.

Zhang Fei's tiger face was right in front of him, and his leopard eyes were full of probing intent, but since Mi Yang came today, there was absolutely no reason for him to return empty-handed.

Mi Yang first tilted his head back, and then said to Zhang Fei with expectant eyes:
"I heard that my uncle is good at training soldiers, and all the soldiers under his command are as good as ten.

Yang came here this time to see his uncle off, and to ask his uncle for some generals. "

When Mi Yang said his reason for coming, Zhang Fei showed such a look on his face.

Alright, this kid, I took it easy and brought it to him.

But facing Mi Yang's request, Zhang Fei had no intention of refusing.

One is because he has already released the promise just now, and the other is that Mi Yang is his beloved nephew, as long as the request is not too excessive, Zhang Fei will not refuse.

Zhang Fei took another sip of his wine, and asked Mi Yang, "Whoever Zicheng wants, just take it, no need to twitch."

At this moment, Zhang Fei displayed the arrogance that an uncle and General Han You should have.

Mi Yang, who heard Zhang Fei's words, was no longer polite.

He pointed to the circle of Zhang Fei's servants in the tent and said: "All these people have nephews."

Zhang Fei, who was drinking, almost spit out the drink from his mouth when he heard Mi Yang's request.

He originally thought that Mi Yang wanted one or two, but he didn't expect to want a circle!
After a pot of wine was finished, Mi Yang led dozens of people out of Zhang Fei's tent and headed for his camp.

Mi Yang looked at the people behind him, feeling quite satisfied.

Thinking about these people, they were the generals who were whipped by Zhang Fei every day and kept by his side.

He didn't care about Fan Qiang or Zhang Da, he took care of everything that was dangerous to Zhang Fei.

When these people are in his hands, how to deal with them is not a matter of his words?

After Mi Yang left, Zhang Fei felt a little pain in his head when he looked at the empty tent and Mi Zhong who was left behind by Mi Yang.

Just now Mi Yang not only wanted to leave all of Zhang Fei's guards and officers, but also kept Mi Zhong for him.

Mi Yang said that Mi Zhong was his younger brother and had always admired Zhang Fei's reputation, so he wanted to follow Zhang Fei around.

But in fact, Mi Yang still considered Zhang Fei's safety.

Mi Yang knew very well that with Zhang Fei's personality, even if he eliminated all the hidden dangers around him today, it would only be a stopgap measure.

If Zhang Fei's temper does not change, then sooner or later there will be a new Fan Qiang and Zhang Da.

So in order to provide insurance for Zhang Fei, he kept Mi Zhong by Zhang Fei's side.

There is no need for Zhang Fei to trust Mi Zhong, as long as he is by his side as a small soldier.

According to the relationship between Mi Zhong and Mi Yang, and according to Zhang Fei's character, he would not whip Mi Zhong.

And as long as Mi Zhong stayed by Zhang Fei's side, it would not be so easy for an ordinary Xiao Xiao to assassinate Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei looked at Mi Zhong who was standing behind him dumbfounded, and he said angrily, "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and find someone to pack my bags for me."

Everyone was asked to leave by Mi Yang, and now there is no one to help Zhang Fei pack his bags.

When Mi Zhong heard the words, he immediately took orders and left.

After Mi Zhong left, Zhang Fei looked at the back of Mi Yang leaving, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth:
"Brat, do you really think I don't know what you really think?"

"It's still the same as when I was a child, I like to make some twists and turns."

After speaking, Zhang Fei, with a smile on his lips, went back to the couch to take a nap.

　Today's is gone.

　　The busiest time has passed, and it will return to normal tomorrow.

　　12:18, 00:[-], and [-]:[-].

　　Mr. Lu Shuming, who played Guan Gong, passed away today, hey.

　　I hope there will be no more regrets in this book.
