"It's still decided," Liu Changsheng shook his head, he had just discussed with Xun Fang, "This matter still needs to be discussed in the long run, and it must be planned carefully, can the general have a suitable candidate?" Wei Yan thought about it for a while, and then said, "If you talk about attacking the city and pulling out the village, you will naturally choose a fierce general like Zhang Bao, but if you go deep into the lone army, the Wei army will definitely vibrate the government and the opposition when it is discovered, and when the army is pressing, you must have a calm and well-guarded person.

"Well," Xun Fang also nodded in agreement, "Ling Huyu has learned table tennis in the past few years, he is brave, calm and calm, and he is indeed a great general."

"There is also a key point, he is still Yan Zhao's person," Liu Changsheng nodded, but Ling Huyu was definitely not enough, secretly thinking about the candidate in his mind, and said, "In this surprise attack, it is indispensable to be a flying army, who else can take on this role?"

Jiang Changsheng said, "For the labor expedition, we still need to send some elders and generals, and my subordinates see that General Huo Jun can take on this responsibility."

Huo Jun was also transferred from Chengdu to Chang'an, Jiang Changsheng had several encounters with him, and he was deeply impressed by this veteran general, calm and had a sense of the overall situation.

Liu Changsheng clapped his hands, "Yes, how did I forget him, General Huo is good at guarding, and he will definitely be able to come in handy!" With these three people, plus Deng Ai and Zhao Guang's Divine Arrow Battalion, it is enough to select a few more generals!"

Because of the importance involved, Liu Changsheng didn't dare to choose other generals who he didn't trust very much, and if the news leaked on the way, there would be no return.

Wei Yan listened to it for a long time, but still did not choose the general of the table tennis, although he understood that his surname was not very big, but he still asked without giving up, "Since the deputy general has been selected, this person of the table tennis?"

He looked at Liu Changsheng with anticipation, to be honest, looking at the entire Chang'an, it seemed that only he was the most suitable person who could take on such a heavy task at the moment.

"Of course it's me!" Liu Changsheng - a natural example.

"Huh?" Wei Yan and Xun Fang were both taken aback, obviously not expecting that Liu Changsheng would take the risk in person.

"Your Highness, this matter is too dangerous, in the opinion of your subordinates, it is better to choose someone else." Xun Fang suddenly regretted his plan, although he understood that it was difficult to change what Liu Changsheng had decided, he still tried to persuade him.

Wei Yan stopped doing it, "It's not fair, I'm in Chang'an, and you're also in Chang'an, why won't anyone be suspicious if you leave?"

Liu Changsheng patted Xun Fang's shoulder, signaled him to rest assured, smiled evilly at Wei Yan, and said, "The general is the Taishou of Chang'an, so naturally he wants to be in Chang'an, but I don't need to do this, just find a reason to leave."

Wei Yan opened his lips, and was speechless for a long time, so he had to sigh, and sat down dejectedly—poured herbal tea—beside him.

"Since His Royal Highness has decided, let Xu Ling stay in Chang'an, and his subordinates will follow the general!" Xun Fang had no choice but to retreat.

If Liu Changsheng had agreed before, but now that he knows the value of Xun Fang thoroughly, he and his father Xun Yu have the overall view of dispatching the rear, and they should be dispatched in his hands, and it is a waste to let him go to the front.

Then he said, "I naturally understand Shiqi's intentions, but when the army is deployed and the enemy changes, Xu Ling is better than you, and you are the one who sits in the town and commands and dispatches, and you are in Chang'an to help General Wenchang, so I can rest assured!"

Xun Fang understood the truth of what Liu Changsheng said, so he had to be silent.

Liu Changsheng looked at the two of them and smiled, and said, "What's wrong?" I was excited just now, but now I'm wilting? This matter needs to be carefully deployed, and Shizai must be secretly transferred back from Xiliang."

Wei Yan rubbed the cover of the tea bowl helplessly, chattering, "You are in command of the expedition yourself, of course you are proud, who can be happy if you leave the two of me to sit here?"

deliberately said to Xun Fang on the side, "Besides, this plan was made by you, why should you let you go, right?"

Xun Fang shook his head with a wry smile, and said goodbye to Wei Yan, since he wanted to do great things, he must also select reliable people to act, from the soldier to the general, it is not to be ignored.

This - Guan Yu brought the officials of Jingzhou to wait at the ten-mile post station outside the city, which was to welcome Zhuge Liang who came from Chengdu.

Guan Yu's hair has turned white, although there are some vicissitudes on his purple face, but there is a hidden - the air of a king, and there is an indescribable majesty in his gestures.

Guan Ping and Kou Wei stood on the left and right beside him, Guan Suo, Yan Yan and others had all arrived, which showed Guan Yu's respect for Zhuge Liang.

After a while, I saw smoke and dust flying in the distance, and three thousand people rushed over, shining silver in the sun, dazzling people's eyes, just looking at the armor and mounting, you can also see that it was Liu Bei's most elite white table tennis back then. At the beginning of the year, people are even more heroic, around forty years old, the helmet - hanging on the side - a white fashionable ox tail, - the face is bearded, the eyes are bright, the mouth is gently sucked in, the silver silk cloak is hula in the wind, it is the white table tennis handsome Chen Zhi.

298 True and False Zhuge

Chen Zhi rushed to the place of arrows in front of Guan Yu in a moment, turned over and dismounted cleanly, and touched the ground on one knee, "I haven't seen the second general Chen to the general."

Although Guan Yu has been immortalized as the king of Xiangyang, Chen Zhi has been shouting the second general for decades, and he still feels that it is easy to call like this, and it is comfortable to listen to.

Guan Yu's lying silkworm eyebrows opened slightly, and he was shining, and he hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, "Uncle Zhi doesn't need to be polite, aren't you recuperating at home?"

Guan Yu also heard that Chen Zhi was seriously ill, and Bai Yu Ping had already handed over to his son Chen Chu to lead, but he didn't expect him to run from Chengdu to Jingzhou.

Chen Zhi got up and replied, "Thanks to Dr. Hua, I have been cured after more than half a year of conditioning."

Thinking of Hua Tuo, Guan Yu also looked fascinated, nodded slowly, and said, "Mr. Hua's medical skills, I'm afraid that no one can match it today."

patted Chen Zhi on the shoulder, smiled, and said, "Come with me to greet the prime minister."

Not long before the white table tennis has arrived in front of him, although it is a step table tennis horse, but it is much stronger than the ordinary riding table tennis, to the front of the movement neatly - get out of the way - just see - human feather fan towels, riding forward.

Guan Yu saw this person, but his brows furrowed slightly, and he immediately stepped forward to salute, but stood still, the cold light in the phoenix's eyes shimmered, and he was a little murderous, and he squinted at the person on the horse.

Guan Ping and the others were about to salute, but when they saw Guan Yu standing still, they looked at each other, and they were still full of anticipation, why did their demeanor suddenly change drastically?

Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang are very familiar with each other, although the appearance of this person in front of him is almost the same as Zhuge Liang, but the temperament of this person is gone, although this person maintains Zhuge Liang's transcendent temperament, but only externally, Guan Yu's realm has long been extraordinary, and he can see through it naturally.

Puzzled in his heart, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Chen Dao in confusion.

Chen Zhi saw Guan Yu's expression, understood that he felt that he had noticed it, took two steps forward, and whispered beside Guan Yu, "If the second general has any doubts, go back and ask again, and greet the prime minister first."

Guan Yu's eyes were slightly cold, and he understood that Chen must have a good intention when he came here, so he temporarily put aside his doubts, stepped forward and hugged his fists, and said, "The prime minister has come from afar, and the road is hard."

Zhuge Liang's face was a little stiff, but he still smiled reluctantly, got off the horse with the support of Shi Ping, shook the feather fan lightly, and said, "Your Highness...... Well, the second general personally went out of the city to greet the mountain people, which really tormented me!"

Guan Yu felt that it was not a taste, and said a few perfunctory words, and took everyone and Zhuge Liang to Jiangling.

When he arrived at the Taishou Mansion, everyone greeted each other, Guan Yu waved away the officials, leaving only Guan Ping's henchmen, and before he could ask, he saw that Zhuge Liang suddenly knelt on the ground, lying on his stomach in front of Guan Yu and trembling.

This sudden move frightened Guan Ping and Kou Wei on the side, but Yan Yan seemed to feel it and looked at him calmly.

Sure enough, the man bowed his head and said, "My subordinates were ordered to pretend to be the prime minister, and I offended His Highness just now, and I ask Your Highness for forgiveness."

Guan Yu flicked his long beard, then he breathed a sigh of relief, nodded slightly, and said, "Since it is the prime minister's order, it is useful, forgive you for your innocence, get up!"

The man was shaking, his feet were soft, and he couldn't stand up when he was lying on the ground, and Chen Zhi hurried over to help him up, only to find that the man was already soaked in sweat.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, although Guan Yu is now inward-looking, not as unruly and indifferent as he was back then, but there is another kind of majesty, this ordinary soldier Ping Pong pretended to be Zhuge Liang, and Guan Yu was on an equal footing just now, how could he bear it?

Guan Suo turned his head beside him, bit Guan Ping's ear and said secretly, "Big brother, this guy is kneeling, it's really scared to death!"

"Cough-" Guan Ping pretended to be cold, coughed lightly, and said in the mouth of the eldest brother, "Third brother, you should observe the situation more in the future and be good at thinking."
