Chapter 156 Personnel Changes

Who dares not to listen to Guan Yu's orders? The rumbling and thunderous sound of war drums resounded through the heavens and the earth, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the main generals of the Northern Expeditionary Army stationed in Fancheng had already assembled in the school field, including Young Master Zhuge who was dragged out of the bed by Xiaobai.

Guan Yu's body was still a little weak and he couldn't stand for a long time, so Guan Ping found Guan Yu to sit down and let Guan Yu sit on the platform. Guan Yu looked around the audience, Danfeng's eyes narrowed, a pair of lying silkworm eyebrows were wrinkled, and the expression of his blood-red face could not be seen. Seeing that everyone had arrived, Guan Yu took a look at the leak, the time was just right, for the time of beating the drum and gathering the generals, the Jingzhou Army had a strict time limit, and those who overtime would be dealt with by very strict military law, Guan Yu was a person who strictly enforced the law. Seeing that no one was late, Guan Yu was very satisfied and nodded.

"I summoned everyone here today because I have something to announce, Ping'er!" Guan Yu pursed his lips and motioned to Guan Ping to bring the military order written by himself in the hands of the guards.

Guan Ping was very obedient, took the military order, strode in front of Guan Yu, handed the military order to Guan Yu, Guan Yu waved his hand, "You come to read!" ”

Hearing this, Guan Ping turned to face the generals, opened the military order, and was just about to read it, but he was taken aback, and turned to look at Guan Yu in surprise, while Guan Yu still squinted his Danfeng eyes, raised his chin, and motioned for Guan Ping to continue.

Guan Ping had no choice but to read aloud: "The order of the general of the Jingzhou Army, from today onwards, appoint Xuanwei General Zhuge Zhan as the chief general of the Jingzhou Army, with full authority to control all soldiers, horses, money, food, civil, military, and political affairs in Jingzhou. Jingzhou Mu, former general, Shouting Hou Guan Yu handwriting, Han Jian'an twenty-four autumn. ”

As soon as this order came out, the audience suddenly became commotion, and Zhou Cang, who was the leader, was the first to jump out and dissuade loudly: "This matter must not be allowed!" How could a general entrust the safety of the entire army to an underage doll? Isn't this child's play? ”

"Presumptuous! Zhou Cang, you have eaten the gall of a leopard, dare to question your father's decision? Although Guan Ping may not support Guan Yu's decision, he will defend Guan Yu's authority to the death.

Zhou Cang was also excited just now, and he didn't pay much attention to his words and attitude, and was reprimanded by Guan Pingyi, so he woke up and hurriedly knelt down to ask for guilt, "The last general is rude!" Please forgive the General! ”

Guan Yu didn't speak, waved his hand, and motioned for Zhou Cang to get up. Then he stood up, pointed to Young Master Zhuge who was standing under the stage at this time, who was still in the fog, and said, "Siyuan, you come up!" ”

When Young Master Zhuge heard this, he hesitated, but thinking about the secret letter from Liu Bei in his arms, he still stepped onto the stage.

Guan Yu ordered the guards to take the soldier talisman seal letter, handed it to Young Master Zhuge , smiled slightly, and said, "Siyuan, Jingzhou will be handed over to you!" ”

Young Master Zhuge was a little stunned at this time, the thing happened too suddenly, so that Young Master Zhuge was a little at a loss, he knelt down on one knee mechanically, and respectfully took the letter of the soldier talisman.

Seeing that Young Master Zhuge did not refuse, Guan Yu nodded with satisfaction and glanced at Guan Ping. Guan Ping is a clever person, and he immediately understood, knelt in front of Young Master Zhuge with a "plop", clenched his fists with both hands, and said loudly: "Guan Ping, the general of the right battalion of the Jingzhou Army, see the main general!" ”

The main general in the audience saw that Guan Yu was iron-hearted, so he had to kneel down with Guan Ping, which was a formal recognition of the status of the chief general of the Jingzhou army of Young Master Zhuge Zhuge .

Chengdu City, the residence of the king of Hanzhong. Liu Bei took the eight-hundred-mile urgent document from Jingzhou, and read it over and over again, I don't know how many times I read it, but I still couldn't believe it.

"The military advisor has arrived!" The general who guarded the gate called his name.

Father Zhuge shook the feather fan lightly, strode into the hall, saluted Liu Bei with a smile, and said, "The lord summoned late at night, what is the matter?" After Liu Bei got the paperwork, he couldn't fall asleep over and over, looking at the night, the night was deep, but if he didn't invite Zhuge Daddy to come, it was estimated that he wouldn't be able to sleep this night, so he urgently ordered the guards to send Zhuge Daddy to the house overnight.

Seeing the tiredness on Father Zhuge 's face, Liu Bei looked sorry and apologized: "The incident happened suddenly, and I disturbed the rest of the military division late at night!" ”

Father Zhuge sat down, yawned with a smile, shook his head, and said, "The lord is serious!" Business matters! ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he picked up the documents on the desk and handed them to Zhuge Daddy. Father Zhuge took a closer look, was stunned at first, then understood, and then handed back the document to Liu Bei and asked, "What does the lord think of this matter?" ”

Liu Bei stroked his beard lightly and shook his head, "I just can't figure it out before I summoned the military division!" ”

Father Zhuge smiled slightly and said, "General Guan is an understanding person!" He is retreating to ask for peace of mind! ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then he understood, and sighed deeply: "As people often say, it is easy to share hardships and hardships, and it is difficult to share wealth and prosperity, I Liu Bei thinks that I am not such a person, but since I became the queen of Hanzhong, I don't know how my courage has become smaller, and I am not as happy as before!" Thinking about this decision, I really feel a little sorry for my second brother! ”

When Father Zhuge heard this, he said with a smile: "It's so bright that you don't see it like this!" ”

Liu Bei was stunned when he heard this, and asked suspiciously: "Could it be that the military advisor has other high opinions?" ”

Father Zhuge said with a smile: "Since ancient times, it has been taboo for the king to support the army and respect himself. General Guan has been in Jingzhou for a long time, with a million household registrations, and there are seventy or eighty thousand people with armor, almost as many as the army commanded by the lord, it is inevitable that people will have scruples. ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he pondered for a while, nodded, and said, "What the military advisor said is extremely true, but I always feel a little sorry for the second brother in my heart!" ”

Father Zhuge smiled slightly and said: "In this case, why don't the lord let General Guan enter Sichuan, and the high-ranking officials will treat him with kindness, so that his wealth and glory will be displayed in the world, so that not only the brotherly love, but also the righteousness of the monarch and the minister, isn't it beautiful?" ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, and said with a smile: "There is still a way for the military division!" That's it! Liu Bei sat down happily, sat down on the desk, and halfway through writing, Liu Bei seemed to suddenly think of something, raised his head and said: "Now that the second brother has handed over Jingzhou to Zhan'er, Zhan'er's name as General Xuanwei is not loud enough, and I am afraid that I can't suppress those arrogant generals under the second brother, I have to add weight to Zhan'er, and make a strong reputation." ”

Hearing this, Father Zhuge smiled slightly and didn't say anything.

A few days later, Liu Bei's envoys arrived in Fancheng and announced a series of important decisions made by the King of Hanzhong on personnel changes in Jingzhou. Zhuge Zhan, the former chief general of the Fuxing Society and the general of Xuanwei, succeeded Guan Yu and concurrently served as the chief general of the Jingzhou Army, and was promoted to guerrilla general.

After receiving this edict, Guan Yu smiled bitterly and sighed helplessly.
