Farmer of Shu Han

Every time the thief Wei made a new move, the prime minister would always attribute it to Feng Yong, which made Wei Yan very displeased.

But seeing him protest:

"Prime Minister, although I know that Feng Mingwen is indeed capable, but now he is thousands of miles away, what does it have to do with the current situation?"

"If the prime minister really attributes what the traitor Wei has done to Feng Mingwen, then what's the point of the soldiers in the army fighting to the death in front of the battle?"

The prime minister frowned, and before he could speak, Yang Yi, who had always been at odds with Wei Yan, also stood up:

"Prime Minister Yizhi has always attached great importance to Feng Mingwen, but this time, the army of Hanzhong has 100,000 soldiers, while the army of Liangzhou is no more than a teacher."

"The Prime Minister's words clearly mean that the army is useless and the teachers are meritorious. If these words are really spread, the officers and men in the army may complain in their hearts. The Prime Minister is unfair!"

Seeing that the two people who were incompatible with each other unexpectedly stood together extremely rarely, the Prime Minister was a little silent:

How great would it be if the two of you could work together to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty like you do now?

Apart from Zhuge Liang, Wei Yan and Yang Yi can be regarded as the highest ranking and oldest in the army.

The two stood up and spoke together, but most of the people below kept their mouths shut.

Guan Xing is Feng Mingwen's brother-in-law, and Zhang Bao is also Feng Mingwen's brother-in-law. Because of the related interests, the two must not be able to make their debut at this time.

Otherwise, there will be suspicion of partiality.

As for Hubu Supervisor Meng Yan, it goes without saying.

One is the friendship with Feng Guiwang Yuexuan.

Two, no matter in Yuejuan or in other southern and central counties, his people all rely on Xinghanhui for food, which can be regarded as related interests.

The most important thing is that his identity is already a little sensitive, so naturally he dare not stand out.

The prime minister didn't answer the words of the two, but just scanned the tent with his eyes.

After a strange silence, someone finally couldn't hold back, stood up and said loudly:

"The prime minister has always been fair. Those who make meritorious deeds will be rewarded even if they have hatred, and those who have done wrong will be punished even if they are relatives. How can the soldiers complain? When did someone say that the prime minister is unfair?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone raised their eyes.

This person is none other than Wu Yi's brother, Wu Ban.

This time during the Northern Expedition, Wu Yi stayed at the rear of Jincheng, and only Wu Ban led the troops from Jincheng.

In the Battle of Longyou, Feng Yong once sent an engineering battalion to help the Wu family brothers take down Xiagui and Linwei, and the two sides can be regarded as friendship.

In addition, Wu Ban is known in Shu for his boldness, and he has a chivalrous heart.

Over the years, knights all over the world have said: If you don't know Feng Langjun, it's useless to call him a hero.

Therefore, Wu Ban has long been interested in making friends with Governor Feng.

More importantly, he is the elder brother of the Empress Dowager of the Han family, and he is a real relative. Naturally, he understands the royal family's attitude towards Governor Feng better than others.

To be disrespectful, as long as Governor Feng does not make any serious mistakes, then after the prime minister.

The person most relied on by the emperor was probably not Jiang Wan, the prime minister's nominal successor, but Feng Mingwen, who was actually a relative.

Wu Ban has a special status, he doesn't have much interest with Feng Yong on the surface, and he doesn't have much contact with Wei Yan and Yang Yi on weekdays.

So he naturally didn't have so many worries.

Anyway, I don't rely on the two of you for food, so I'm afraid you won't succeed?

The important ministers of the court in the future are young and promising, about the same age as the emperor, if they don't support others now, when will they support them?

"The Prime Minister has always planned before acting, and there are many things to see. Now there must be a reason for saying so."

"As for Wei thief's actions, whether they were influenced by Feng Mingwen or not can be confirmed after the war. Why are we talking about it now?"

What Wu Ban said was clever in supporting the Prime Minister in the open and supporting Feng Mingwen in the private.

Although in his heart, he was not very sure about the prime minister's words.

But it doesn't really matter.

If the prime minister is right, that would be great, but there is no way to confirm it now, so it is useless to say more.

If the prime minister is wrong, who would dare to turn over the old matter of the prime minister when Guanzhong is captured?

If you can't win Guanzhong... how to deal with the aftermath of the defeat is the biggest thing, what is this matter?

The prime minister glanced at Wu Ban, and there was imperceptible admiration in his eyes.

Wu Yi and Wu Ban, who came from the empress dowager's family, are not only loyal ministers of the country, but also have extraordinary talents, which is really rare.

Although Guan Xing couldn't be the first to stand up, but now that Wu Ban stepped forward, how could he not see the opportunity?

But seeing him hastily responded:

"That's right, now the Wei bandits are coming from the east and the west, and they obviously want to attack us. The enemy is in front of us, so the priority is to retreat from the enemy."

"Whether Wei Bandit was transferred because of Feng, uh, Feng Mingwen, after the battle, you will know, and then you will know, why discuss it at this time?"

No matter how much you can't get used to your brother-in-law, that's still your brother-in-law.

After all, who would have thought that in the Han Dynasty, after marrying Sanniang, someone would dare to take over the younger sister of the Zhang family.

It's outrageous to fall into his mother!

It's all Feng Wenhe's fault!

It's just that in the past few years, Guan Shiro Guan Suo, whose reputation has risen like a magpie in the wind, is bound to his brother-in-law.

No matter how much honor Guan Suo brought to the Guan family, the bond between the Guan family and his brother-in-law is so deep.

The Guan family is prosperous again, so Guan Xing is naturally happy.

It's just that if this prosperity is due to the fact that some people in the Guan family are erratic, Guan Erlang will have mixed feelings in his heart.

Every time news about Suo comes, Guan Xing can't stop wishing more and more:

How great would it be if he really had such a younger brother?

For the perfect younger brother of the Guan family, even if his brother-in-law is a piece of yellow shit, Guan Xing has to close his eyes, grit his teeth and say:

That is gold! And it's full of real gold!

For Sanniang, for Fourth Brother, for the Guan family, not to mention he saved my life...

Guan Xing silently hypnotized himself in his heart.

"That's right, what An Guo said is very reasonable."

Zhang Bao quickly followed suit.

For Si Niang, for the crown prince, for the royal family, not to mention he saved my life...

Zhang Bao silently hypnotized herself in her heart.

When Meng Yan saw that Guan Xing and Zhang Bao were talking, he was naturally not afraid. He coughed, and then uttered a sentence:

"What General Wu and General Guan said is very, um, very reasonable."

For the people of Yuejuan, for the people of Nanzhong...

Meng Yan silently hypnotized herself in her heart.

No way, over the years, Xinghan will invest a lot of manpower and material resources to develop a lot of fertile land in the Sunshui River Valley (the Anning River Valley in later generations, the second largest plain in Shu).

Now Xinghanhui has completely controlled the main output of Yuejuan.

As for the various industries emerging in Nanzhong, the Xinghan Association also has a lot of them-if you add the cooperation between the Xinghan Association and the royal family, it is conservatively estimated that there are at least 60 to 70% of them.

All the handsome and powerful people in Nanzhong, as well as the aristocratic families in Shu, can only eat the remaining three or four elements.

However, the life of the Southern Zhongyi people is indeed much better than before.

In particular, the Meng family who moved to Yuexiu now say that they have no worries about food and clothing, and it is not an exaggeration to say that some of the children in the clan are "learned at a young age."

All these changes are naturally closely related to the emerging industries in Nanzhong.

The leader of the Xinghan Association, don't mess with it, don't mess with it!

Hubujian General Meng comforted himself in his heart:

Anyway, Feng Guiwang's reputation in Nanzhong is too great, and I, who was born in Nanzhongyi, kneel and lick occasionally, that's a normal thing, right?

Standing at the very end, responsible for the food and grass in the army, Li Feng quietly took back the foot that had just taken half a step:

Forget it, I keep my words light, just watch from the corner.

...

All the generals suddenly spoke in unison, making the atmosphere of Shuai Zhang a little awkward.

Wei Yan is the number one general in the prime minister's army, and Yang Yi, as a long history, can be regarded as the number one person under the prime minister.

The two of them were usually like enemies, and it was rare to join forces once in a century, but unexpectedly, they were tactfully opposed by important generals in the command.

In this situation, not to mention the two were caught off guard, even the prime minister was a little unexpected.

Zhuge Liang's eyes flashed, and he glanced at the people in the tent again.

I don't know what he thought of, a smile of emotion suddenly appeared on his face, and he nodded:

"That's right, the immediate priority is to retreat from the enemy."

Wei Yan is fine, as long as he can fight, other things will be discussed later.

But Yang Yi opened his mouth and seemed to want to speak, but Zhuge Liang didn't give him a chance to interrupt.

Holding a long whip in his hand, he pointed directly at the huge sand basin on the desk, and started the military discussion.

"It is reported that the army led by Qin Lang does not belong to Guanzhong, but the elite soldiers of the Wei bandit army in Luoyang. Most of them have elite cavalry, and their combat power should not be underestimated."

"He came from Chencang along the bank of the Wei River. There is no need to cross the water, and the flat land on the bank is also conducive to the deployment of cavalry. Therefore, we must also respond with cavalry."

Speaking of this, many people looked at Guan Xing and Zhang Bao.

After the first battle of Xiaoguan, the emperor immediately rebuilt the northern and southern armies.

It is rumored that a certain lady surnamed Zhang used her body to feed ghosts, and obtained the method of forming an armored cavalry army from the king of ghosts for the royal family.

I don't know if it's true, anyway, the rumors in the market are well-established.

But to be honest, the Northern and Southern Second Armies were indeed built according to the standards of the Armored Cavalry from the beginning.

According to the plan, the southern army led by Zhang Bao was a fully formed armored cavalry army, while the northern army led by Guan Xing was the fine cavalry of the auxiliary guard iron armored cavalry.

It's just that Adou and Zhang Xingcai's couple completely underestimated the money-burning ability of the armored cavalry.

Halfway through, it was discovered that the living standards of the royal family were plummeting.

If things go on like this, let alone eat the seafood sent by Soochow, even if they drink it, I am afraid it will be tea made with tea foam-the money is almost empty and the mouse is running away!

At this time, the emperor and his wife remembered Feng Mingwen who liked to make plans in advance.

It's just that things have come to this point, and they can't start all over again, and they can't just pull down and beg my brother-in-law halfway through.

So in the end, the standard had to be lowered, and the armored riding equipment was changed to armored cavalry.

The so-called armor riding refers to people wearing armor.

The armor refers to the horse armor.

In other words, both the northern and southern armies are now manned with armor, while horses only have leather armor to protect their vitals.

First, the requirements for war horses were lowered, and second, most of the expenditure was reduced.

In Zhang Xingcai's hands, there was finally a little money left, barely maintaining the dignity of the royal family.

Although this is the first time that the North and South Army have fought since becoming an army, their combat power is not too weak.

Guan Xing and Zhang Bao each led 3,000 armored cavalry, and they could even be regarded as the most powerful cavalry in the prime minister's hands.

Because the Northern and Southern Army not only fully absorbed the soldiers of the Kansai Iron Cavalry left by Ma Chao, but also received a lot of friendly support from the Liangzhou Army.

After all, the number one civil and military officers around the governor of Liangzhou, one is surnamed Zhang and the other is surnamed Guan.

The brother-in-law and brother-in-law, who finally knew the benefits of marrying their younger sister, said in unison:

"The final general is willing to lead the army!"

"The two of you are no more than 6,000 people, and they are both cavalry. You still need a general to lead the infantry."

Zhuge Liang said, his eyes fell on Wei Yan.

Wei Yan bowed his head and remained silent.

In his eyes, Qin Lang's troops are no more than 30,000 to 50,000 people, and they can only be regarded as Wei's bandits.

If you want to make great achievements, you still have to go to the east. Sima Yi's place is the real main battlefield.

Seeing Wei Yan deliberately avoiding his gaze, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty frowned, sighed inwardly, and turned to look at Wu Ban:

"General Wu, I will assign you 10,000 people, but are you sure you can stop the thieves from the west?"

Wu Ban quickly said:

"As for the assistance of the two generals, Zhang and Zhang, let alone block it, they are sure to defeat the enemy."

With armored cavalry guarding the two wings, the Wei thief lost the advantage of the cavalry, so there was nothing to fear.

Even if there are fewer people than the enemy, it is very easy to defend the camp by relying on the unique bow and crossbow of the big man.

The prime minister nodded:

"General Wu has this ambition very well, but Qin Lang's troops are not comparable to ordinary Wei thieves. If you meet him, you must not underestimate the enemy."

"You three, as long as you guard the camp, block the thieves from the west, and prevent Qin Lang from entering the east, that will be considered a great achievement."

"If the thieves are allowed to approach Wuzhangyuan and echo with Sima Yi in the east, it will shake my plan to seize Guanzhong. Remember it."

Seeing the prime minister's solemn and serious instructions, Wu Ban's heart trembled: "The final general wishes to issue a military order."

After arranging the defense in the west, Zhuge Liang planned to personally lead the main force, preparing to meet Sima Yi's army in the east.

All the generals received their military orders and went out to prepare.

Zhuge Liang saw that Wei Yan was about to walk out of the tent, and finally couldn't help saying:

"Wen Chang stays for now."

Hearing the prime minister's words, the others didn't react too much, only Yang Yi stopped hesitantly and looked at the prime minister.

The prime minister didn't know if he didn't notice him, his eyes didn't fall on him at all.

Yang Yi stood for a while, seeing that the prime minister didn't call him, so she reluctantly withdrew from the tent.

"I don't know if the prime minister is calling someone, but do you have something to order?"

Zhuge Liang glanced at Wei Yan, pondered for a while, and asked:

"I remember, you have a son named Wei Rong who worships under Feng Mingwen?"

Wei Yan was a little surprised. He didn't understand why the prime minister asked about his family affairs, but he nodded, "Exactly."

The prime minister pondered for a while, and then continued to ask: "How is the relationship between your father and son?"

Wei Yan became more and more puzzled:

"It's okay. Although he is not my own, his mother has always been in charge of my house's internal affairs. He often visits the house, and he treats me politely on weekdays. In words, he always thanks me for taking care of my mother."

Wei Rong's current status is not ordinary, just the status of Feng Cishi's first disciple who opened the door is enough to make people look sideways.

Few people may know that Wei Rong's mother was brought into the mansion by Wei Yan in the early years, but it is naturally impossible for Wei Yan to turn a blind eye to Wei Rong's current status.

A few years ago, he had turned Wei Rong's mother into the main wife.

Therefore, regardless of the grievances between Wei Yan and Feng Shishi, it is not an exaggeration to say that Wei Yan is kind to Wei Rong's mother and son, and Wei Rong will naturally not be rude to Wei Yan.

Hearing what Wei Yan said, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but take a deep look at the other party, and the expression on his face became a little weird.

"That's... also... very good. You go down first."

Wei Yan went out in a daze.

PS:

As soon as I was discharged from the hospital, I rushed to a chapter immediately.

I had a minimally invasive surgery, but I still couldn't sit for a long time, and my back still hurts. I could only follow the doctor's instructions, and get up and exercise for ten minutes every half an hour of sitting.
