"Do you know what our mission is this time?"

Wei Ba looked at Wei Feng and then at Fu Xing, without any smile on his face. Wei Feng and Fu Xing glanced at each other, and they both felt a little surprised. Wei Ba's attitude seemed to be a little too serious. Their brothers and old friends met each other, served on other tasks together, and fought side by side, originally chatting happily all the way, but now Wei Ba suddenly raised such a question that didn't seem to be a problem, which naturally surprised them very much.

"Ziyu, what do you mean ......"

"Do you feel anything about the configuration of troops?"

Wei Ba's face was very calm, but he was very anxious in his heart. The current situation is so delicate and dangerous, but the two of them have been as relaxed as an outing along the way, which is really anxious. Wei Feng is his brother, and there is no doubt about the deep brotherhood, but for the current status gap between the two, it is unrealistic to say that Wei Feng has no idea at all. If the words are said heavily, it is difficult to guarantee that Wei Feng will have resistance in his heart.

He hadn't intended to remind them, hoping that they would realize the trick themselves, but after a few days of marching, they didn't feel it at all, even if he had reminded them a few times. Now that the war was imminent, he had to make his words clear.

Fu Xing realized Wei Ba's intentions, and a trace of shame flashed in his eyes.

After Wei Ba joined, excluding the troops lost in the attack on Xiangyang, the army led by Li Yan had a total of about 56,000 people, but Li Yan only gave them 10,000 people, including 5,000 people from Wei Feng's headquarters, 3,000 people from Wei Ba's personal guard battalion, and Fu Xing only had two building ships and more than ten small and medium-sized warships. Including the supply ships, there are less than two thousand people in total, and they are all his headquarters.

When Wei Ba sent 10,000 main forces into Yuzhou to contain the main force of the Wei army, Li Yan actually did not add even one more soldier to Wei Ba.

Obviously, in Li Yan's eyes, this force is the same as Zhao Tong's men, it is a bait to contain the Wei army, only the more than 40,000 people led by himself are the real main force, and the task he wants to carry out to attack Fancheng is the real core task.

If this strategy can be executed smoothly. Li Yanlianke Xiangyang, Fancheng. His credit is undoubtedly the greatest, and those who can share the victory with him are of course also the people who fight with him, like Wei Ba and others can only get a little scraps.

In the previous battle to conquer Xiangyang, Wei Feng was responsible for the task of blocking. And Sima Yi didn't really cross the river to fight. So Wei Feng has not made substantial contributions so far. Compared with. Fu Xing is slightly better, at least with the merit of Han Shui.

As long as you are willing to think with your heart, it is not difficult to find Li Yan's intentions. And they just didn't notice that. It's not a question of ability, it's a question of attitude. No wonder Wei Ba was unhappy.

"Ziyu, Li Huqi ...... It's a bit unkind. Fu Xing said curtly.

"I can't say that Li Huqi is not kind, I can only say that you are unlucky, one is my brother, and the other is my good friend." Wei Ba tried his best to say in the most gentle tone: "Li Hussar did this, not specifically against you, but at me, you are not just a pond fish that has been affected." ”

Wei Feng's face suddenly turned red, and he said angrily: "How can this be true, you have made so many contributions to him, and he still treats you like this, it is too unreasonable." ”

Wei Ba asked lightly: "Then according to what you say, what is the prime minister?" ”

"Prime Minister......" No matter how straightforward Wei Feng was, he also heard what Wei Ba meant, and couldn't help but be a little sneering.

Li Yan just separated Wei Ba from the main battlefield, but Zhuge Liang asked Wei Ba to go to Wuling to perform more dangerous tasks, in comparison, Li Yan was kind. However, the Wei family's father and son have always been close to the prime minister, although Wei Yan often has disagreements with the prime minister, and often complains in private, but there is no doubt about his respect for the prime minister. If he said that the prime minister was not, he was afraid that his father Wei Yan would not agree.

"Don't blame the prime minister, and don't blame Li Yan, they are far more than the ones who have opinions about our father and son." Wei Ba twisted his fingers, his expression surprisingly calm. He is so calm, but he is not entirely appeasing Wei Feng and Fu Xing, in fact, he is no stranger to those unspoken rules in officialdom, and he can understand Zhuge Liang and Li Yan's current practices very well.

Although there are a lot of things about starting a family of 2,000 stones in these years, those are enough to be recorded in the family tree, and they can even be recorded in history. Like Wei Ba, who was promoted to the general of Zhennan in his early twenties, and was made a marquis by virtue of his military exploits, he is probably only comparable to the twelve Ganluo in history. Liao Li was less than thirty years old when he served as a taishou, and he was already a proud capital, not to mention Wei Ba.

Slander follows the reputation, and while gaining honor, it will inevitably bring criticism. Wei Ba is very clear about this. People are slowly boiling their qualifications, why do you come out all of a sudden? At such a time, there are a few people who are willing to calmly think about how Wei Ba's Zhennan general came to be? They will only see your status as a match for your age.

Even Wei Feng, the elder brother, was unconvinced, let alone others.

Jealousy is common to all.

"Ziyu, I only now understand that you Weishenme will accept such an arrangement." Fu Xing sighed: "Your strength is getting bigger and bigger, and we are not as good as you." In the future, we will need more guidance from you. The master is the teacher, and you are our teacher. ”

"The teacher doesn't dare to say it, everyone is a confidant, let's figure it out with each other." Wei Ba glanced at Wei Feng. Wei Feng was stunned for a moment, nodded vigorously hurriedly, and touched his head awkwardly: "Ziyu, I only know how to go into battle to kill the enemy, and I won't do these twists and turns, if there is anything wrong in the future, you can just say it directly." ”

"In fact, it's not bad to be simpler, but sometimes you want to be simple, but others don't want to be simple." Wei Ba smiled helplessly: "This time, our purpose is not to make meritorious service for ourselves, but to make wedding dresses for others." One is to buy time for the prime minister to seize Longyou, and the other is for Li Hussar to seize Fancheng and contain the main force of the Wei army, so ......"

"Wait." Fu Xing frowned and interrupted Wei Ba: "Li Hussar is still ranked after the prime minister?" Li Huqi has such a haode mind? ”

Wei Ba looked at Fu Xing appreciatively, in terms of flexible brain, he was obviously better than Wei Feng, and he heard the key from the seemingly casual sentence. In the minds of the Chinese, this order cannot be messed up at all.

"Without the Prime Minister's acquiescence, do you think I can do so much?"

Fu Xing thought about it and laughed silently: "I understand, Ziyu, you go on." ”

"What do you say?" Wei Feng looked at Wei Ba blankly, and then looked at Fu Xing.

"I'll talk about this later, let's talk about this mission first." Wei Ba didn't want to talk too far on the topic, he wanted to enlighten Wei Feng, but it was not as simple as enlightening Fu Xing, he had to break it, crumple it, and explain it to him slowly. He doesn't have that much time right now. "Therefore, our task is actually a chicken rib, tasteless food, and it is a pity to abandon it. As long as the attention of the Wei army can be contained, even if the task is completed, it doesn't matter how many cities can be conquered. Even if it is Li Hussar, if he can successfully conquer Fancheng this time and insert a foot in Jingzhou, it will be considered a great success. ”

Fu Xing groaned: "That's true, more than sixty or seventy thousand troops are on the march, and this food consumption is a heavy burden, even if Jiangnan and Jiaozhou have a bumper harvest this year, it is impossible to support it for too long." You said it was half a year, but now three or four months have passed, leaving a maximum of two months. In two months, it would be good to be able to conquer Fancheng. Although Li Huqi's temper is a little worse, he still has some knowledge. ”

"Zhong Jian is right, if Li Hussar wants to compete with Cheng Xiang, he can't take risks." Wei Ba smiled, "What's more, he doesn't dare to be outside for too long, if he can't return to Chengdu before the prime minister captures Longyou, it won't be so easy for him to go back again." So in several ways, this war will not last long, because ...... The prime minister's side won't drag on for long. ”

"So, we're not going to have a fun trip?" Wei Feng said with some frustration.

"Not really." Wei Ba shook his head, put away his smile, and looked at Wei Feng with a little reproach: "Bullying the weak with the strong, anyone will, win by surprise in the case of insufficient strength, avoid the real and attack the weak, and defeat the strong with the weak, this is the highest state of using soldiers." It's the same as fighting, if you're an adult man and you win a child, that's not a skill. But if you defeat someone who is stronger than you, that's what you can do. ”

Wei Feng nodded again and again, and said with a smile: "Then tell me, how should we fight in order to defeat the strong with the weak?" Turn this chicken rib task into a big piece of fat and surprise those guys. ”

Wei Ba beckoned, let people take the map, and smiled at Wei Feng: "Speaking of which, this mission is really going to fall on you." Brother, when your father was guarding Hanzhong, you spent the longest time with him, so you must know the terrain of this area the best, right? ”

"Of course." Wei Feng patted his chest: "I also went here with Dunwu and them to investigate." By the way, when it comes to the terrain here, Tsunobu knows better than me, so you can call him to study it together. ”

"He's outside, and he's coming right away. Still, I'd like to hear from you first. For generals, if you want to know astronomy and geography, I will test you today to see if you are lazy. If you don't do well in the exam, I will show the prestige of General Zhennan today, send you home, let my sister-in-law supervise you to study for a few more days, and then release you to command the army. ”

Fu Xing hahadaxiao: "It makes sense, I also agree with Ziyu's idea. ”

"Don't, if you don't make some contributions, how can I have the face to go back." Wei Feng's face was flushed, he looked down at the map, his fingers slowly crossed the map, and he nodded in the west of Shunyang: "Shunyang is surrounded by Danshui in the south, Shishan in the west, and the city is built on the mountain, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack." With our troops, it will not be easy to attack. Ziyu, Zhong Jian, in my opinion, if you want to succeed, you can only outwit. ”

Wei Ba and Fu Xing glanced at each other and asked in unison, "How to outwit?" ”

Wei Feng rubbed his short beard, muttered for a moment, and suddenly clapped his big hand: "Take Nanxiang first, and then Shunyang." ”…… (To be continued......)
