In December of the 24th year of Jian'an in the Han Dynasty, outside Gong'an City, the agreed meeting date between Mi Yang and Sun Quan had arrived.
In the real history of the Three Kingdoms, it may be rare for the generals of the two armies to fight in front of each other, but the meeting and discussion between the generals of the two armies is recorded in history books.
For example, during the Battle of Xiangfan, Guan Yu met with Xu Huang, such as the famous single-handed meeting in history.
In the 20th year of Jian'an, Sun Quan asked Liu Bei for Jingzhou but was unable to do so, and he was very angry.
He ordered Lu Meng to lead his army to capture the three counties of Changsha, Lingling and Guiyang. After Liu Bei learned of this, he rushed to the police station from Chengdu in person and sent General Guan Yu to fight for the three counties.
Sun Quan himself also led troops to Lukou and sent Lu Su to garrison Yiyang to resist Guan Yu.
At that time, a war between the two sides was about to break out, and the Sun-Liu alliance was facing collapse.
At this critical moment, Lu Su, who was the governor of Jiangdong at the time, decided to negotiate with Guan Yu in person in order to safeguard the Sun-Liu alliance and not give Cao Cao an opportunity to take advantage of it.
"Su invited Yu to meet each other, and each stationed its troops and horses at a hundred paces, but all the generals can do it alone."
In order to investigate Lu Meng's condition, Mi Yang proposed to meet Lu Meng in person.
Although Lu Meng was now seriously ill and unable to get out of bed, Sun Quan resolutely accepted Mi Yang's suggestion.
Sun Quan was willing to accept Mi Yang's suggestion. First, he wanted to find out who Wu Nuqian was in his own army by meeting with Mi Yang.
On the other hand, he knew that Mi Yang had many tricks and was good at disturbing people's hearts.
If he chose to avoid Mi Yang's invitation, Mi Yang would definitely take the opportunity to spread the word.
Then he used this to disrupt the morale of the Jiangdong army. In that case, it would be detrimental to Sun Quan.
It was out of these two considerations that Sun Quan agreed to Mi Yang's invitation.
And with the previous experience of Guan Yu and Lu Su meeting, so today's meeting between Sun Quan and Mi Yang can be arranged as in the past.
"Each garrison is stationed in a camp outside the city a hundred steps away, and each leads two generals to gather alone at noon."
This was Han Dang's reply to Mi Yang yesterday when he shot into the public security city at Sun Quan's instruction.
After Mi Yang received Sun Quan's reply, he immediately sent another Jiangdong surrender soldier to bring back a letter, which said "yes".
When I went to a meeting alone a few years ago, the word "lonely" was just an adjective.
In fact, Guan Yu and Lu Su were each accompanied by several generals, but these generals only met with swords on their waists.
Because he had won many great victories in a row, Mi Yang now had a lot of Jiangdong soldiers in his hands.
On the other hand, Jiangdong, in order to communicate, could only spend a lot of effort shooting arrows to go to the public security city.
Mi Yang and Sun Quan chose a place where they would meet in an open area.
Not only was this place too empty to hide an ambush, but it was also just a hundred steps away from the two armies, making it suitable for a meeting between the two armies' generals.
According to the range and power of bows and arrows in this era, it was not easy to hit Mi Yang and Sun Quan with one arrow from a hundred steps away.
It is even more impossible to imagine that one arrow could cause damage to Mi Yang and Sun Quan, who were both wearing good armor.
Sun Quan was wearing armor in the camp.
Although his armor is not Mingguang Armor, it is an armor with excellent protective power that was forged by Jiangdong's famous craftsmen with countless efforts.
Today, the two generals Sun Quan will bring to meet with Mi Yang are Xu Sheng and Pan Zhang.
These two generals are both famous and powerful generals in the Jiangdong Army today.
If Mi Yang has evil intentions, with these two generals around, even if there are ten thousand enemy Guan Yu, they can be enough to protect Sun Quan until the Jiangdong army in the camp comes to help.
When Sun Quan put on his armor and saw that the time was approaching, he took Pan Zhang and Xu Sheng out of the Jiangdong camp and arrived at the place agreed upon with Mi Yang yesterday.
When Sun Quan arrived at the agreed place, he saw a young general wearing Mingguang armor sitting under a cover.
A piece of eucalyptus had already been placed under the cover, and a wine stove was placed on top of the eucalyptus.
Fireworks are burning in the furnace, and steam is steaming from the wine pot on the furnace.
At this time Mi Yang also saw Sun Quan arriving.
This was the first time Sun Quan met Mi Yang.
In the past, he had learned about Mi Yang from various intelligence sources.
When he knew that it was Mi Yang's design that caused him to lose the best opportunity to seize Jingzhou, he hated Mi Yang.
In the subsequent intelligence, Mi Yang defeated his own army twice.
This undoubtedly deepened Sun Quan's hatred for Mi Yang and at the same time made him very curious.
What kind of person can achieve such impressive achievements at such a young age?
Even his elder brother Sun Ce's achievements at Mi Yang's age would not be better than Mi Yang's.
After seeing Mi Yang's appearance, Sun Quan saw his sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, his tall and straight posture, and his heroic spirit. He couldn't help but respect Mi Yang a little more.
People in this world sometimes judge people by their appearance more than those in later generations.
A good skin can easily affect people's senses.
Sun Quan, escorted by Generals Pan Zhang and Xu Sheng, got off his horse, and then walked to the opposite side of Mi Yang.
Seeing Sun Quan coming to him, Mi Yang just raised his head and glanced slightly.
He saw the middle-aged general in front of him who was tall and straight, with a big mouth and bright eyes.
His figure is tall and short, and his appearance is roughly the same as that of Sun Quan recorded in history.
Is this the famous Emperor Wu in history?
Pan Zhang, who was behind Sun Quan, saw that Mi Yang just glanced at his Supreme and stopped making any moves after Sun Quan arrived. Pan Zhang was furious.
"Mischievous thief, my master has arrived, why don't you worship me?"
When Pan Zhang called Mi Yang a thief, Shamoko, who was behind Mi Yang, was furious.
Calling his benefactor a thief is not calling him a barbarian king.
Shamoko glared at Pan Zhang. He was about to draw his sword directly, but was stopped by Mi Yang, who knew his character.
When Shamoko, who was originally angry, saw Mi Yang trying to stop him, he instantly stopped the urge to draw his sword and stayed behind Mi Yang.
Sun Quan saw this scene clearly.
He saw that Samoko was nine feet long, with broad arms and a round waist, and a majestic appearance. He was a rare and powerful general.
He learned from Han Dang that Zhou Tai was shot and wounded by a nine-foot-long barbarian general, and finally died of his injuries due to his old age.
At this time, Sun Quan guessed that the barbarian general Han Dang mentioned should be the one in front of him.
Such a powerful general was willing to be driven by Mi Yang, because his anger was extinguished with just one action, which is enough to prove that Mi Yang can win the heart of a hero.
After Mi Yang stopped Samoko, he smiled and said, "Your master is not the king of my family. I have no distinction between a king and a minister, so why do you want to worship him?"
"Your master has invaded my lord's territory without any reason. I am willing to drink wine to treat him. This is the utmost courtesy."
"Besides, you are all from Jiangdong, and you have come to my Jingzhou as a guest. When the guests enter the main gate, don't you pay me your respects first?"
Mi Yang's reputation as an eloquent speaker is well-known in Chengdu.
When I was in Chengdu, I don't know how many celebrities from Yizhou who liked to deduce prophecies were speechless and stunned by what he said.
When Mi Yang left Chengdu, countless celebrities from Yizhou who had been silenced by Mi Yang breathed a sigh of relief at home.
Nowadays, people who have not read much of Pan Zhang's book want to take advantage of Mi Yang in words, which is undoubtedly wishful thinking.
Sure enough, Pan Zhang was instantly speechless under Mi Yang's rhetorical question.
Mi Yang is talking to him about etiquette now, but how can he understand the meaning of etiquette as a rough military general.
Pan Zhang, who was speechless by Mi Yang's rhetorical question, was stunned on the spot.
And Pan Zhang's face turned red because he was speechless.
His original intention was to show his loyalty in front of Sun Quan and gain the upper hand for him, but he didn't expect that he would be the one who was embarrassed in the end.
At this time, Sun Quan's majestic gaze swept across Pan Zhang, and the chill in his eyes was self-evident.
If you can't speak, speak less.
Master Mi Yang is well-known and has made many military exploits now. Even when he talks to Mi Yang, he doesn't dare to take it lightly. How can he, Pan Zhang He De, dare to be so presumptuous.
It's just that Sun Quan is worthy of being a hero, and he was not annoyed under Mi Yang's questioning.
He just pretended not to hear, and then Shi Shiran had to sit down opposite Mi Yang.
Mi Yang thought that Sun Quan would refute him, but he didn't expect that he would stop talking and just sit down straight, as if he was the master here.
Sun Quan proved with his actions that he also had a share in Jingzhou.
Mi Yang did not comment on Sun Quan's move. He just poured a glass of wine for Sun Quan who sat down.
In order to show that the wine was not poisonous, Mi Yang drank the glass of wine in front of him first.
Mi Yang's move gave Sun Quan, who had always been suspicious, some peace of mind.
But he still didn't touch the glass of wine.
After he finished drinking with Mi Yang, he suddenly asked Mi Yang, "Zicheng must be very hard to serve the unruly king."
Seeing that Mi Yang was very discerning, Sun Quan wanted to use words to make things difficult for Mi Yang so that he could take a more active position in the subsequent talks.
Sun Quan asked, but Mi Yang's answer was inappropriate no matter what he said.
Because when he answered yes or no, he was acquiescing to Sun Quan's previous accusation that Liu Bei was an unruly king.
Just now, Mi Yang said that Liu Bei was his master. If he now follows Sun Quan's advice, he would undoubtedly be talking about himself and leaving the words in Sun Quan's hands.
After Sun Quan asked Mi Yang, he stared at Mi Yang, trying to see the embarrassment on his face. Unfortunately, he also underestimated Mi Yang.
Under Sun Quan's gaze, a smile appeared on Mi Yang's face. He pointed at the eucalyptus in front of him and said, "One pour and one drink, no need to worry."
As soon as Mi Yang said these words, Sun Quan's face immediately darkened.
He originally wanted to embarrass Mi Yang, but was ridiculed and scolded by the clever Mi Yang.
Under Mi Yang's words, isn't the person he calls the unruly king referring to himself?
This thief! So angry!
Seeing Sun Quan's face gloomy and looking like he was not having a good attack, Mi Yang didn't care how much he hated her.
He asked the question that concerned him the most today: "The person I have an appointment with today is Governor Lu Da."
"Why did the Lord of Jiangdong come to meet him in person before Governor Lu arrived?"
As early as yesterday's letter, Han Dang informed Mi Yang that the person he met today was Sun Quan.
Mi Yang's question caused the conversation between the two to enter the theme in an instant.
A look of insight appeared on Sun Quan's face. He pointed at Mi Yang and said, "You have so many eyes on her, so why do you ask questions knowingly?"
Because of the anger in his heart, Sun Quan no longer concealed his hatred for Mi Yang and stopped calling her by names.
And now Sun Quan is not afraid of Mi Yang knowing that Lu Meng is seriously ill.
Because he came, the morale of the army was solidified.
Sun Quan's rhetorical question allowed Mi Yang to gain two key information points.
The first information point is that the six words "I heard that the governor was seriously ill" in his letter made Sun Quan mistakenly think that he had an insider in the Jiangdong army.
The second information point is that Sun Quan's words and actions prove that Lu Meng is probably really seriously ill.
Or at least, Lu Meng has lost Sun Quan's trust.
Otherwise, as the commander-in-chief of the Jiangdong army, Lü Meng would be invited to meet by name. Even if Sun Quan wanted to meet him in person, he would not come without Lü Meng if he wanted to save face.
After basically confirming this, Mi Yang quietly put down a big stone in his heart.
In other words, Sun Quan is now in charge of the Jiangdong Army, and Lu Meng has lost the right to command the army.
When faced with Sun Quan's words to test his informants, Mi Yang did not answer directly. He just said vaguely,
"If there is an unruly king, there will naturally be disloyal ministers. This is an ancient and modern truth. Why should the general ask me?"
Sun Quan was suspicious, Mi Yangyue
If you don't answer him directly, he will extend a lot of doubts based on his own guesses.
But at this moment, Mi Yang's words made Sun Quan sneer.
Seeing the half-smiling expression on Mi Yang's face, Sun Quan said, "Absurd!"
"How can I ever be without virtue?"
"On the contrary, your lord Liu Bei, who was married to Gu and swore an oath of alliance, refused to return the Jingzhou that Gu borrowed from him after he acquired Yizhou.
Can such an ungrateful person be considered an unjust king? "
Seeing that Sun Quan was making fun of Jingzhou again, Mi Yang's face darkened.
Sun Shiwan told so many lies that he even believed him, so he didn't deserve a fight, right?
Mi Yang looked at Sun Quan and said sternly, "What the general said about borrowing Jingzhou is completely false."
"After the Battle of Chibi, Cao Cao was defeated, but he still controlled Nanjun and Nanyang."
"At that time, Liu Biao, the herdsman of Jingzhou, died of illness, and the whereabouts of his son Liu Cong were unknown. In Jingzhou, the title of son after the death of a father should be inherited by Liu Qi, the eldest son of Liu Biao."
"At that time, my lord appointed Liu Qi as the governor of Jingzhou in Jiangxia, and he conquered the four counties in southern Jingzhou."
"Because Liu Qi inherited Jingzhou's laws of nature and people's will, when our Lord conquered the four counties of Jingnan, Wuling Prefect Jin Xuan, Changsha Prefect Han Xuan, Guiyang Prefect Zhao Fan, and Lingling Prefect Liu Du all surrendered."
"Then Liu Qi unfortunately died of illness and had no heirs. Before his death, he entrusted Jingzhou to my lord."
"According to the laws of the people and the people, my lord is the well-deserved new lord of Jingzhou. As for Jingzhou, what does it have to do with the general?"
"The general is the lord of Jiangdong after all, but he didn't expect to be so shameless.
For their own selfish purposes, they distort the facts and attack their allies on unfounded charges. "
"General, aren't you afraid that after your death, Qing Shi Zhaozhao will criticize you for your treachery and duplicity, and scold you for eternity?"
Mi Yang's impassioned rebuttal made Sun Quan furious.
Compared with Sun Quan's unreasonable borrowing of Jingzhou, Mi Yang presented the facts and made sense.
The Battle of Chibi was only a dozen years ago, and many of the parties involved were still alive. How could Sun Quan be allowed to confuse right and wrong?
Seeing that Sun Quan was speechless by his words, Mi Yang continued to refute Sun Quan and said,
"Previously, your general Zhou Yu captured Nanjun and lent it to my lord.
Later, in gratitude for Zhou Yu's kindness, my lord divided the three counties of Jiangxia, Changsha and Guiyang and gave it to you. "
"Unexpectedly, my lord's benevolence is thought to be weak by you, and you even plan to send troops to attack my Jingzhou in the name of "returning Jingzhou". "
"You are so virtuous, you really pretend to be the master of Jiangdong."
"Sun Zhongmou, I have seen quite a few shameless people in my life, but this is the first time in my life that I have seen someone as shameless as you, who is like a snake, insect, rat, or ant and is only worthy of hiding on the ground and hiding in camp."
"You really think that there is no general in the Han family who can destroy Wu!"
Since Sun Quan took charge of Jiangdong, he has never been scolded in person like this.
And the key point is that every word Mi Yang scolded him, and he couldn't refute every word, which made Sun Quan almost vomit blood from anger.
In his rage, he slapped his gum and stood up, "You thief, I really don't dare to kill you!"
Facing Sun Quan's move to slap him, Mi Yang was not afraid at all.
With a great victory under his belt, his own power is no worse than that of Sun Quan.
He also slapped the gum and stood up and said: "You are a cunning man who wants to die!"
As Mi Yang and Sun Quan clapped their hands and stood up, the generals behind them also drew their swords and glared at each other.
The atmosphere in the field suddenly became tense.
