Mi Han

Chapter 352
There is no impenetrable wall in the world, not to mention that last night Mi Yang's act of releasing his military power with a glass of wine was done in public.

Perhaps due to Mi Yang's actions last night, all the commanders and generals in Liangzhou Middle School surrendered their military power, but it has always been the tradition of generals to let their cronies take charge of their troops.

So after a night of fermenting, until early this morning, all the middle-level generals in the camp of the Han army outside the city, who were the confidantes of the main generals of all parties, learned of this matter.

When this incident spread in the Han army camp, it instantly caused quite a stir in the Han army camp.

If Mi Yang only confiscated the military power of the generals, with his prestige and his position in the general situation, this matter would not cause much commotion.

Because it does not violate their interests.

But a group of mid-level generals learned from their chief general that the reason why Mi Yang wanted to withdraw all his military power was to refine the army.

When the mid-level generals in the Han army camp learned of this, some of them immediately felt like a poisonous snake caught seven inches away, and fear began to arise in their hearts.

Everyone knows that if Mi Yang wants to refine the army, the first step he has to do is to take back the military power, and the second step must be to sort out the actual situation of the soldiers in each battalion.

And it is precisely this point that scares those generals the most.

Because these generals have falsely reported the number of soldiers in the past in the past.

It is a long-standing chronic disease in the ancient army to falsely report soldiers to eat empty pay. This phenomenon is not only in the Han Dynasty, but also in the other two armies.

As a master, there is no one who does not feel disgusted by this phenomenon.

Because if this phenomenon is not suppressed, in addition to seriously affecting the combat effectiveness of the army, it will also greatly increase the country's financial burden.

However, from the pre-Qin period to the present, and even in the thousands of years of later generations, this phenomenon has been unable to be cured.

The root of this is that this kind of behavior is an important way for some generals to seek benefits for themselves.

Compared with killing the enemy on the battlefield, it is faster and safer to obtain benefits by falsely reporting the number of soldiers and eating empty pay. How could this prevent some generals from flocking to them?
But the generals who did this knew that their behavior was strictly prohibited by military orders.

So after learning of Mi Yang's intentions, some generals in the camp became nervous.

The strictness of Mi Yang's military law is known all over the world.

If Mi Yang learns about their behavior of eating empty pay, then their best end is to be dismissed from military posts, or even be beheaded by Mi Yang for public display.

Driven by fear in their hearts, some generals and schools with ghosts in their hearts began to spread rumors in the Han army camp.

This kind of rumor is that Mi Yang intends to eliminate all the tens of thousands of troops originally belonging to Hanzhong County, and then use the saved large amount of food and grass to support his direct army.

This kind of rumor is undoubtedly a misinterpretation of Mi Yang's original intention, and even if it is carefully considered, there are still many loopholes.

But rumors, which ones can stand scrutiny.

But as long as the spread is good, the lethality brought by rumors is very great.

Tens of thousands of Han troops were almost all illiterate peasants, and many of them did not have their own opinions.

In addition, it was their superiors who spread such rumors, so such rumors spread in the Han army camp at an extremely fast speed.

When this kind of rumor slowly fermented in the camp of the Han army, it immediately caused panic among many Han troops.

In troubled times, everyone is precarious. Under such circumstances, many people join the army. They just want to have a fixed place to survive.

Now under the influence of rumors, many Han soldiers think that Mi Yang will eliminate them all and let them fend for themselves. This kind of fate is absolutely unacceptable to them.

Fortunately, Mi Yang's current reputation is enough to have a strong deterrent effect, and in addition, there are still a large number of generals and schools in the Han army camp who did not participate in this conspiracy.

Therefore, there was no such thing as a roar in the camp of the Han army that would make any soldier in charge fear.

It's just that as time goes by, once more and more Han troops believe in this rumor, even if there is no such thing as a camp roar in the Han army camp, it will definitely cause a mutiny.

And this is exactly the result expected by those generals and schools with ulterior motives.

They didn't want to resist Mi Yang from the bottom of their hearts.

They just wanted to cause turmoil in the camp of the Han army by spreading rumors, and then use this to force Mi Yang to give up his plan to investigate the soldiers of each battalion.

So when they saw the situation in the camp of the Han army slowly developing towards what they had expected, they all secretly rejoiced in their hearts.

But what they didn't know was that some elite soldiers outside the Han army camp were rapidly approaching here.

This part of the elite soldiers was led by Wei Yan and other generals.

The establishment of the Nanzheng Wai Han Army Camp was initially used to defend Nanzheng City, so the Han Army Camp was not far from Nanzheng City.

In addition, Wei Yan and other generals were anxious, so they arrived outside the Han army's camp in less than half an hour.

When Wei Yan arrived outside the Han army camp, he immediately noticed something unusual.

The vast military camp in front of him was presided over by him when he was the governor of Hanzhong.

After the construction of this military camp, in order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the army, he once issued a strict order that on the fifth day of every month, the soldiers in the camp should start training at dawn.

Today is the day when tens of thousands of Han troops in the Han army camp start training.

Now the sun in the sky is already high, but in the camp with tens of thousands of Han troops, there is no sound of training shouts, which is very suspicious.

When this happens, there are only two possibilities.

One possibility is that Wu Yi later canceled the training system he set, but Wu Yi is also a man who knows how to fight, so he has no reason to do so.

Then there is only one possibility left.

An accident was brewing in the camp of the Han army, which made it impossible for tens of thousands of troops to carry out training smoothly.

After realizing this, Wei Yan immediately told Ding Feng and others beside him about the guess in his heart.

After Ding Feng and the others knew Wei Yan's conjecture, they all had heavy expressions on their faces.

As Lu Yi said, it is Wei Yan who knows the army in Hanzhong best.

So when Wei Yan uttered this guess, Ding Feng and others believed in Wei Yan's guess.

Ding Feng and the others looked at the thousands of elite soldiers brought behind them, and thought that a change might be brewing in the camp in front of them. Among them, Fu Qian took the lead in suggesting to Wei Yan:

"If, as the general said, there is already turmoil in the camp, then it will be useless for us to fight it now.

I can quickly return to Nanzheng to report the matter to Zhou Mu, and it won't be too late to wait for Zhou Mu's decision to take action. "

After the Xiangfan War ended, Fu Xun had the cheek to take the initiative to visit Mi Yang and ask for a military post for his son Fu Qian.

Mi Yang, who knew the history, had a good impression of Fu Xun and Fu Qian, and he readily agreed to Fu Xun's request.

Fu Qian is now the Sima of another department directly under the command of Mi Yang.

Fu Qian was brought by Fu Xun to exercise by his side since he was a child. Under the influence of Fu Xun, he has a calm personality that does not match his peers.

In addition, Fu Qian had seen turmoil in the military camp, it would be extremely dangerous for anyone.

So he will make such a suggestion.

But after Wei Yan listened to Fu Qian's suggestion, he shook his head decisively.

Compared with Fu Qian, Wei Yan, who climbed up step by step from the bottom, has a lot of experience.

He carefully observed the periphery of the Han army camp with a pair of tiger eyes, and he saw that the peripheral defense measures of the Han army camp were still very complete.

Coupled with the fact that there were no loud shouts of killing coming from the camp, he quickly came to a conclusion.

He raised the horsewhip in his hand and pointed at the Han army camp in front of him, saying:
"I guess the situation in the camp is not too bad. Otherwise, if there are a lot of rebels in the camp, the camp will not be so quiet and the gate of the camp may have been destroyed by the rebels."

"Although I also suspect that there may be turmoil in the camp, I believe that most of the soldiers in the camp are unwilling to rebel.

It's just that they are definitely indecisive now, and they should hurry up to appease them while they are hesitating.

"What's more, the state pastor sent me to wait, didn't he imagine that there would be turmoil in the camp in advance, so let us solve it?
If we have to ask the state shepherd for instructions on everything outside the camp, let alone delaying important matters, what does the state shepherd want his subordinates like us to do?

If I can't quell the rebellion, even if I suffer disaster, I will be dedicated to my duty! "

After saying these words, Wei Yan resolutely patted his horse and continued to approach the Han army camp.

Wei Yan's courageous words and his indomitable actions greatly inspired Ding Feng and others behind him.

Ding Feng and other generals were also courageous, and even Fu Qian only suggested that to Wei Yan out of safety considerations, which did not mean that he was timid.

Therefore, encouraged by Wei Yan's words and actions, Ding Feng and others immediately led the thousand or so Han troops behind him, and followed closely behind Wei Yan.

Not long after, Wei Yan drove his horse to the antlers outside the Han army camp. When he arrived here, soldiers on the barracks outside the Han army camp fired arrows to stop him from moving forward.

Blocked by the arrow, Wei Yan stopped the horse's hoof.

After Wei Yan stopped, an inquiry came from the barracks ten steps away in front of him.

When he heard the voice of asking to prove his identity, Wei Yan took out the document that Mi Yang gave him in his arms.

On the other hand, he reached out and took off the helmet on his head, fully revealing his appearance to the soldiers on the barracks.

Wei Yan came from a humble background, so although he didn't get along with most of his colleagues, he treated the ordinary soldiers under his command very well.

Wei Yan didn't serve as the governor of Hanzhong for a long time, but in those few short years, relying on his style of loving nurses and soldiers, he had absolutely high prestige in the army of Hanzhong.

The most important thing is that many of the tens of thousands of troops in Hanzhong have seen Wei Yan.

So when the Han army on the barracks saw Wei Yan's appearance, the things that Wei Yan loved and cared for them in the past immediately appeared in their minds.

"It's the capital, the former governor is back!"

Soon this kind of joyful sound resounded in the various barracks of the Han army camp.

After hearing these voices, Wei Yan showed a smile on his face.

He held up the document in his hand, and shouted to the soldiers on the barracks tower: "Following Zhou Mu's order, Yanlai is here to take charge of the army in the barracks, so please open the door quickly!"

When Wei Yan's shout reached the barracks, the soldiers led by Ding Feng and others also came behind Wei Yan.

Among the thousands of Han troops standing in rows behind Wei Yan, there was a guard of honor exclusive to Mi Yang who was tied up high.

Champion Hou, Liang Zhoumu, General Zuo, and Mi Yang have their own guards of honor for each of their positions.

And when so many guards of honor representing prominent power appeared in the eyes of the soldiers on the barracks, their gazes at Wei Yan became more and more awe-inspiring.

The guard of honor is here, as if Mi Yang came in person.

This is Mi Yang's insurance for Wei Yan, who is worried about the turmoil in the camp.

Now this insurance will soon take effect.

After seeing this scene, although the Han army on the barracks tower was also affected by the rumors in the barracks and had different thoughts in their hearts, they still quickly responded to Wei Yan's words with actions.

A moment later, the gate of the camp, which was originally closed to Wei Yan and his party, was opened to Wei Yan and others with the joint efforts of the soldiers on the camp tower.

As soon as the camp gate opened, Wei Yan couldn't wait to lead thousands of people behind him into the camp gate.

As time goes by, the turmoil at the campus, which is the center of the camp, is becoming more and more uncontrollable.

More and more soldiers gathered in the school grounds under the influence of rumors.

They were supposed to be training today, and they all carried weapons with them.

And on top of the black soldiers, there are still many generals and schools with ulterior motives spreading rumors.

"The state shepherd is wise. He only issued such an order because he was deceived by villains."

"We have been in the army for many years, if one day we are disarmed and returned to the fields, where will we go?"

"In order not to deceive the state shepherd, and for our future, we cannot sit still and wait for death."

"We might as well rush out of the camp, go outside Nanzheng City and cry to Zhou Mu, and let Zhou Mu decide for us."

The extremely deceptive words spread among the numerous soldiers, which quickly affected the hearts of many soldiers.

Those generals were smart, they didn't tell the soldiers to fight against Mi Yang, otherwise, with Mi Yang's prestige, more than half of the soldiers present would have dispersed in an instant.

The words they said could not only keep many soldiers from dispersing, but also arouse their resistance to a large extent.

Under the bewitching voices of those generals with malicious intentions, many soldiers were indeed eager to try.

Of course, as Wei Yan said, most of the soldiers present have not been bewitched by those generals for a short time, but as time goes by, it is not certain.

The people present not only included soldiers, but also many generals who did not participate in the bewitching.

After most of the generals noticed this scene, their faces were full of anxiety.

It's just because the ranks of the two parties are similar, and the words of the other party are obviously more deceptive, so they have no choice for a while.

Just as the situation in the school grounds became more and more dangerous, a rush of horseshoes sounded around the school grounds.

Not long after, Wei Yan, who was sitting on the tall steed, appeared on the leaping horse in the eyes of everyone around the school grounds.

After seeing Wei Yan's appearance, many soldiers showed joy on their faces, and the crowd began to riot involuntarily.

Their captain is back.

After Wei Yan came to the school grounds and heard those ridiculous words, he pointed at those generals who spread bewitching words on the high platform with a horsewhip, and shouted at them:

"The villain you are talking about, do you mean me, Wei Yan!"

Wei Yan's voice was like a bell, and the angry reprimand he uttered with all his strength quickly spread around.

At the same time, on his rough face, there is also a devouring expression like a tiger and a leopard!
Wei Yan's sudden appearance and his current angry demeanor frightened those generals who harbored evil intentions.
